Eldest daughter

Chapter 135 Water Ghost Substitute
On the Ghost Festival, also known as the Yulan Basin Festival, the gates of ghosts are wide open, and every family sacrifices. There are people burning red and white river coins by the riverside and roadside to sacrifice to those lonely ghosts who have no one to worship.

Because Mrs. Liang passed away at the beginning of the year, and the year had not yet passed, it was considered a new grave, and he had to go to the grave to worship and fill the grave, so Wang Yuan'er had prepared things early to go to worship.

Along the way, they saw burnt paper ashes joss sticks, worshiping their parents, Wang Yuan'er burned paper money joss sticks on the side of the road, muttering words, nothing more than asking ghosts not to disturb them.

When I got home, I offered meals and incense candles in front of my parents' tablets, and then called the girls together to talk.

"In July and a half, the gates of ghosts are wide open. If you have something to do, don't go out and wander around, especially at night, and don't go to the river to play, especially Lan'er, you know?" Wang Yuan'er pulled the little girl and said.

Although the Hungry Ghost Festival is July and a half, among the folks, April and July are full of evil spirits, especially in July, commonly known as the ghost month, when wandering outside, it is easy to attract some dirty things.

Therefore, Wang Yuan'er put his words first, which also served as a warning.

Lan'er was timid, pulled her sleeve tightly and said: "I will definitely not run around."

"Well, that's right, if you run around, the ghost will catch you!" Wang Qing'er frightened her.

Lan'er screamed in fright, Wang Yuan'er glared at her: "What nonsense did you say, I haven't spit on it yet."

Wang Qing'er stuck out her tongue and said with a smile, "I'm not teasing her!"

Lan'er put her hands on her hips and shouted: "The third sister is the most annoying!"

The sisters laughed together.

Guiyue, the crops are ripe, this year's rice is growing very well, and the rent is estimated to be full, but Old Man Wang and others are very happy.

The building of the River Department was in full swing, and it was in full swing, and the whole Changle Town was full of vitality and excitement.

The days were so short between the east and the west, and when half of the ghost month passed, Wang Yuan'er heard a terrible thing.

In addition to the Changle River in Changle Town, it also merges into a river, which is much smaller than the river, and has depths and shallows. Many children will go to the river to play in the water, especially in hot summer. Some adults directly bring their children in the river. Washed in the river and went home.

"The eldest daughter of the Lai family died and was captured by the water ghost as a substitute." Mrs. Zheng said regretfully.

This Lai's family, that is, the Lai's family that was a middle-aged man at the beginning, gave birth to two daughters and a son. The eldest daughter was 12 years old. She jumped into the river for no reason, and never came up again.

"Isn't this fate? I heard from her two younger siblings that she had already gone there earlier, and she will go again in the afternoon. Her younger siblings were unwilling to go, and she insisted on holding a stick to force them to go along with her." If you don’t go, you’ll beat them. As a result, you’ll be gone if you jump into the river. It’s said that you found them there.” Lady Liu from the tailor’s shop sighed, and then whispered, “Tell me, this isn’t being killed by ghosts. What will happen if you are fascinated? Be good, if you insist on forcing it, you must be fascinated by ghosts!"

Wang Yuan'er's heart trembled when she heard that, she knew that the eldest daughter of the Lai family, Hua'er, was a very good-looking girl, so she just left.

After passing by Lai's house, she heard Lai's screaming cries mixed with the crying of the child, and she couldn't help feeling sorry for her.

No matter how rich life is, it's fake. It's good to be alive. If you die, you really have nothing.

When she got home, she told a few girls about this at this time, and from then on, she took a closer look at the younger ones, especially Wang Baolai, who could already crawl now, and had things from her previous life. Don't let him go near the well.
