My whole family sucked my blood; after being reborn, the little cook went on a killing spree.

In her past life, Xie Yan was a top-notch dentist, but she quit her job a year later and went home to marry the brother next door.

Xie Yan's home, Songxiwu, is located over the back mountain of Shili Village, and it would take another half a day to get there. Since she was little, she has said that she must go to the city and live the life of a rich person in the future.

How could she willingly marry back into the mountains?

She found it strange, but she forced herself to cross the mountain and find Xie Yan in Songxiwu. However, Xie Yan said that it was his own choice and that he did it willingly. Every word he said was full of happiness.

She left, but little did she expect that a year and a half later, news came that Xie Yan had died in childbirth.

Two lives lost, one unborn!

Xie Yan's body was sold by her husband's family to prepare for a ghost marriage, while the child's body was thrown into a deep pit. When she went to look for it again, the child's body had been gnawed and could not be pieced back together.

With both her hands crippled and unable to hold a stick, on the night of the ghost marriage, she kicked countless boulders at the crowd. Taking advantage of the panic, she snatched Xie Yan's body and buried the mother and son.

It seems the Lin family deliberately spread the news, and the villagers all said she had gone mad.

She went crazy while collecting her friend's body.

It was around that time that Li, under the pretext of calming her nerves, brewed medicine and soup for her. She did feel better, but her health deteriorated day by day. Later, she developed a high fever for no reason, which meant that when the Li family took her away, she was powerless to resist and could barely speak.

Looking back now, it was probably this incident that frightened the Lin family, so they simply drugged her and ruined her health. Anyway, they had already gotten all the information they needed to get, and Lin Yuwei had become the Crown Princess, so she could take the blame and die.

Oh, otherwise, what if she suddenly attacks and hurts someone?

That's really a very thorough consideration.

Connecting all these events, Su Wanning was once again shocked by the shamelessness of the Lin family.

Once she finds Xie Yan, it would be more meaningful for her to move back to the Lin family home. How can simply owing an IOU be enough?

After asking around at the brokerage, he learned that it wasn't that Mu Xun didn't know why Xie Yan had resigned, but rather that the brokerage itself didn't know either.

It is said that Xie Yan went to see the haunted house shop that day, and never came back.

That evening, she slipped a letter resigning from her job into the house, but didn't take any of her own belongings. The little broker gave the letter and her bundle to Su Wan Ning, saying, "This is it. Give it to her if you go to see her."

The handwriting is indeed Xie Yan's.

The bundle was something she had Xie Yan help her hide.

Su Wan Ning thanked him, but felt something was wrong. Xie Yan was half a head taller than her, so it couldn't have been snatched away by a flower seller, could it?

"Miss Su? What a coincidence! Didn't you just buy a shop? Are you buying another one?"

As soon as I left the brokerage, a person walked towards me.

It was Lu Ping, whom I had just eaten with.

"I'm not buying the shop. I want to find Xie Yaren. Has Mr. Lu met him?"

Su Wan Ning asked casually, after all, she was a top-notch brothel owner and should know many people in the county. She planned to ask around the neighborhood first.

To everyone's surprise, Lu Ping exclaimed "Oh!" and looked around. "You know Xie Yaren? What's your relationship with her?"

"She's my good friend!"

Su Wan Ning was both surprised and delighted, and immediately asked, "Mr. Lu knows her? Have you seen her these past two days?"

"Come on, let's go over there and talk."

Lu Ping led her to a quieter place and spoke to her briefly.

That day, he was also eating noodles when he saw Xie Yan come out of the haunted house and head towards the city gate. Several people around him recognized Xie Yan and made very vulgar remarks.

He was indignant and said a few words.

One of them said that Lady Xie would marry him sooner or later, and that letting her show her face in public now was just to earn more money for him. Why should he meddle in other people's business?

He got even angrier and started arguing with them.

The man was furious, saying that Xie Yan worked at the brokerage firm and was constantly being watched by maggots and flies like him, which was a disgrace. He said he would take Xie Yan home tonight to consummate the marriage.

"I never imagined they'd actually dare to say and do it? Did the Xieya people really quit their jobs?"

Lu Ping said regretfully, "It's all my fault."

"This has nothing to do with you; you meant well."

Su Wan Ning suppressed her anger, said "I'll treat you to dinner when I get back," bought a few sesame cakes, and left the city gate without looking back, heading straight for Songxiwu.

That day, she rushed back to Qingshan County and immediately confirmed Xie Yan's safety. She even specifically told her to wait for her to come and find her.

She didn't want to collect corpses again in this life.

Unexpectedly, it was precisely because of him that Xie Yan went to that shop, was targeted by that group of beasts, and was tied up and taken back ahead of time!

A beast is a beast, and it will be a beast for all eternity!

At the same time, the Lin family was sighing with worry because of money.

In a famine year, land was cheap, and everyone knew the Lin family was in dire need of money. Originally, the good land was worth two taels of silver, but people were only willing to buy it for five hundred coins!

More than 20 mu of land, but only 12 liang were sold.

Li sold all her jewelry and even many of her clothes, but she only managed to scrape together a little over twenty taels.

"If all else fails, let's sell the house. It cost thirty taels to build, and with the furnishings inside, it's worth quite a bit of money."

Lin Jiabao angrily asked, "Where will we live after we sell the house?"

He thought that once Zhao the镖头 (bodyguard) stole the bundle, he would make several hundred taels of silver, and then trick Su Wan Ning out of her personal two hundred taels of silver, so he could live the life of a rich young master!

And now? Nothing's left!

If he has to sell the house again, he might as well just die!

Startled, Li stopped crying. "What are we going to do? Your father still needs medicine and treatments. It's all your fault for borrowing so much money!"

"Don't you dare talk to your mother like that!"

Lin Mao had already woken up and heard about what had happened that day. A sinister glint appeared in his eyes. "Go and follow Zhou Laoshi. The Li family has whipped me so many times. We can't just let it go like this."

"what?"

Lin Jiabao was a little confused.

Lin Mao told Li to close the door, then lowered his voice, "The warehouse was originally managed by Zhou Laoshi, but that day he insisted he had something to do at home and asked me to cover for him! And that's how this happened! But no matter how I explained it to Manager Feng, he wouldn't listen... I suspect that the ham might have been spoiled a long time ago, and Feng Shi and Zhou Laoshi conspired to make me take the blame!"

"No way, how dare they?"

Lin Jiabao was shocked.

"Go quickly! As long as we find evidence that Zhou Laoshi and Feng Shi are colluding, we can turn the tables and get all the money back!"

Lin Mao felt pain all over his body whenever he moved, and his hatred intensified.

Feng Shi and Zhou Laoshi are no good, and Su Wanning is even worse!

"Father, don't worry, I'll go right away!"

Lin Jiabao nodded repeatedly.

Li didn't quite understand these things and didn't dare to disturb them, so she cried silently.

She couldn't understand what was going on with Su Wan Ning. That girl was strong; she might have really killed Zhao the镖头 (bodyguard) and read the letter. But if that was the case, why didn't that girl come and question them?

He probably still remembers the kindness he showed her when he adopted her and wants to acknowledge her as his aunt!

She had to think of a way to swindle all the money from that brat.

There's also the prescription Yuwei gave me; I have to get that brat to tell the truth!

Little did they know, Su Wanning was on the mountain behind Shili Village at that moment.

She suddenly threw the boning knife.

With a whoosh.

A flash of cold light from the blade, and a venomous snake that was about to attack her was pinned down.
