In front of the lamplight, the old man was silent for a moment before he spoke: "Speaking of that female ghost, she was also a hard-working child before she was born. Her name is Liu Xueyin, and in our Pingyang Town, she and her old mother are dependent on each other, but after she had this incident, the old mother was also seriously ill and died not long after. Alas, what a sin! Originally, it looked like a good match, but no one expected it to turn out like this in the end, since the daughter of the Liu family was pregnant, her man ran away with other women, leaving her alone, but this girl still insisted on giving birth to the child, but it was a difficult birth, and she died......"

"Wait, old man, what did you just say your name was here? Binh Duong Town? Did I hear me right? I suddenly grabbed the name of the place that the old man had said earlier, and asked anxiously.

The old man looked at me in surprise, then nodded and said, "Our place is indeed called Pingyang Town, but now it can only be regarded as a small village." Hey? Ergou, you came all the way to our Pingyang Town, don't you even know the name of our town? So what are you doing here? Speaking of which, our place was a big town at first, but after so many years, the people in the town walked and died, and gradually shrunk into a small village. But we are used to the name Binh Duong Town, so the people in the village continue to use the name Binh Duong Town to represent our village. ”

"Uncle, I'm here to find Pingyang Town!" I said happily: "I didn't expect to have nowhere to find the iron shoes, so it would take no effort to get there...... Such a small village turned out to be Pingyang Town, no wonder, no wonder the town near Yunju Mountain in the south, few people know that there is a Pingyang Town here, dare to love your town, it has been decadent into a small village. "Speaking of which, I can't help but think of the ghosts I encountered on the side of Jilong Mountain, they must have escaped from here.

But thinking about it again, I couldn't help frowning, could it be that the demons caused by those ghosts are this female ghost? But, but I don't think this female ghost has anything powerful, but after thinking about it, it doesn't seem to be absolute, although this female ghost didn't treat me well, but, the more he despised me, the more shallow this female ghost's Taoism is, and she almost didn't take me seriously!

The old man looked at me with a puzzled expression, and after a long time, he couldn't help but ask, "Ergou, what do you want?" Since you said that you came to find our Pingyang Town, then tell me, what are you doing in our Pingyang Town? Is it to help us catch ghosts?! ”

As he spoke, the old man deliberately glanced at the yellow cloth bag I was carrying, and his eyes lit up. I hurriedly came back to my senses, nodded and explained: "Master, my master and I did come to your Pingyang Town to slay demons and subdue demons, but you just talked about the life experience of that female ghost, it seems that you didn't finish speaking, right?" Why did the man in her family run away with another woman? Since everyone has run away, why does she insist on giving birth to children? ”

Hearing my words, the old man sighed deeply: "It's all bad fate...... In fact, how to say it, alas, I will talk to you from beginning to end, otherwise you won't be able to figure it out, because the matter of Liu Xueyin's family, it is difficult to explain clearly in one or two sentences, it is too messy! Under my stunned gaze, the old man hurriedly told me the life experience of the female ghost.

It turned out that the female ghost lived so hard and difficult with her mother before she was alive. However, according to what the old man said, Liu Xueyin, the female ghost, was a well-known beauty embryo in Pingyang Town, and it can be said that in recent years, the matchmaker who came to propose marriage almost broke the threshold of her family. However, there is no man in the Liu family, only an elderly mother presides over the affairs of the family, and Liu Xueyin's mother is also a more traditional woman, with a good family style, although the family is very poor, but she never wants to think about it.

That is, in the second half of last year, a young descendant came to the village, named Zhang Zhaowen, who was handsome and beautiful, and gave the people in the village the feeling that he was a very honest child. This Zhang Zhaowen came to the village in tattered clothes at that time, saying that he had come to Pingyang Town to look for relatives, but after inquiring, he learned that his distant relatives living in Pingyang Town had passed away a few years ago. The relatives were not found, and they did not go home, and they were so hungry that they were skinny and bones.

Liu Xueyin's mother was kind-hearted and gave him a meal, the young man Zhang Zhaowen was grateful, and couldn't help but run to Liu's field to help with farm work, Liu Xueyin's mother saw it in her eyes and liked it in her heart. As a result, Zhang Zhaowen stayed at home for a few days, but she didn't expect that it was just a kind take-in, but she didn't expect that Zhang Zhaowen would fall in love with his daughter Liu Xueyin during the period of time he lived at home.

After Liu's mother learned about it, she found out that Liu Xueyin also loved Zhang Zhaowen to death, and it was impossible to break them up. What can I do about this, Liu's mother found the branch secretary, and the three old ladies with the highest seniority in the village discussed together, and in the end, they decided to meet Zhang Zhaowen, a descendant, and talk about his marriage with Liu Xueyin.

When it comes to these three old ladies, they are the original three families of Pingyang Town, one is the Liu family, one is the Wang family, and the other is the Wu family. Over time, although the current Binh Duong Town has only become a name and has actually become a small village, the traditions passed down by the ancestors are still observed by the villagers.

The three old ladies are the elders of the three families, and their words are also very weighty. Therefore, the three of them and the village party secretary combined, the four of them got together to try Zhang Zhaowen. Zhang Zhaowen also confided in his heart at that time, if Liu Xueyin would not marry in this life, Liu Xueyin would be even more desperate, saying that Zhang Zhaowen would not marry. In this way, the four masters made a request to Zhang Zhaowen, if Zhang Zhaowen can do it, Pingyang Town will allow him to marry Liu Xueyin, otherwise where will he come from, and don't think about marriage.

To say that the few of them are not relatives of the Liu family, how can they influence the marriage of the daughters of the Liu family, but don't say it, the villagers in the village just obey this, as long as the three old ladies and the village party secretary are unanimously opposed, then no one wants to get it done, unless the family leaves Pingyang Town. This may be a kind of customs and human feelings, an invisible tradition.

Zhang Zhaowen heard that as long as he agreed to their request, he could marry Liu Xueyin, so he was naturally full of promises. But the request made by the three old ladies was to make this Zhang Zhaowen the son-in-law of the Liu family, join the Liu family, and never return to his hometown for the rest of his life. According to the old man, the three old ladies at that time had this consideration, and they were also afraid that Zhang Zhaowen and Liu Xueyin would change after marriage, and then abduct Liu Xueyin, so only Liu's mother was left alone, how should she live?

This requirement is clearly to ensure the happiness of the mother and daughter of the Liu family in the second half of their lives, but for Zhang Zhaowen, for a big man, the words "son-in-law" and son-in-law are all derogatory, and they will make people feel that being rich is a custom that they can't afford to be a human being.

But perhaps the two of them loved too much and couldn't be separated, so Zhang Zhaowen nodded directly and agreed. It is easy to do it if you agree, and the village is guaranteed by three old ladies, led by the village party secretary, to help Liu Xueyin, the daughter of the Liu family, to handle the marriage. After marriage, the little couple can be regarded as loving and loving, and they did not live up to the expectations of the villagers, especially Zhang Zhaowen's descendant, who worked in the farmland all day long, working harder than other crops in the village, which made many villagers in the village envious of the Liu family for finding a good son-in-law.

But the good times only lasted until the end of the New Year...... That is, at the beginning of this year, at the beginning of the year, Liu Xueyin, the daughter of the Liu family, was already three months pregnant. The family was happy, seeing that life was getting better day by day, but they didn't expect that an accident happened, and someone from Zhang Zhaowen's hometown came!

It turned out that Zhang Zhaowen's hometown was a small ravine in the south of Yunju Mountain, and the inexplicable people who came changed the villagers' views of Zhang Zhaowen, so that under the sneers of the villagers, Zhang Zhaowen mysteriously disappeared with the visitor. And the person who suddenly came from his hometown was none other than Zhang Zhaowen's daughter-in-law, a woman as young as Liu Xueyin, but she didn't have Liu Xueyin's simple kindness, her little face was rubbed with white flour, and her eyebrows were painted like goblins, which made people uncomfortable at first sight.

And as soon as the woman came, she accused Liu Xueyin of robbing a man with her, and rolled around in Liu's house and refused to leave, not only was it just a troublesome matter, but the villagers' pointing at Zhang Zhaowen even alarmed the accusations of the three old ladies against Zhang Zhaowen, and Liu Xueyin washed her face with tears all day long. forced Zhang Zhaowen to sleep in the field with a blanket, and he built a small house in the field, perhaps to avoid a lot of trouble.

But who would have thought that before he lived in the field for two days, the village exploded, saying that someone saw the third watch in the middle of the night, and the unpassed daughter-in-law of Zhang Zhaowen's hometown actually got into Zhang Zhaowen's small house, and only came out of it in the morning. This is terrible, Liu's mother was so angry that she chased Zhang Zhaowen with a kitchen knife, but Zhang Zhaowen was still claiming to be wronged. The three old ladies here think that Zhang Zhaowen has destroyed the consistent good atmosphere of Pingyang Town, and almost lost the face of the entire village, and then, either drive the woman away from his hometown, or find someone to break his leg and cripple him, the woman is still willing to follow him, so let them get out together, so the two choices are placed in front of Zhang Zhaowen.
