At the same time, Tang Ran pulled at my clothes and immediately said, "Alright, stop asking. She won't say anything."

I was startled, and immediately asked, "Eh? "Why?"

At once, Tang Ran pointed to some fresh vegetables beside me.

These vegetables, they looked very familiar. These were collected by my father in our backyard this morning.

Seeing this, I couldn't help but understand.

At this time, Tang Ran also said, "Looks like someone has come before us."

I sighed. From the looks of it, my father must have been here before. He seemed to know what I was thinking, and he knew I would come and ask, so he said these things to stop my aunt.

In this way, I really couldn't get any answers out of him. After all, my aunt had promised my father that she would go ahead, so why would she tell me now?

However, this method is the best that we have at the moment. After losing this method, I really don't know what I should do.

Thus, the me right now didn't want to leave this place.

In my mind, I kept thinking of a way. Perhaps, I could think of a way to convince my old aunt to tell us the secret about this matter.

Only Don didn't think I was right. Before I could figure it out, he was dragging me out of my old aunt's house.

After walking a distance away, I wandered around the village aimlessly.

"Do you think we have no way of knowing the truth?" I asked helplessly.

Tang Ran shook his head. "That may not be so. Whatever it is, there's always a chance of change. Since your father found your old aunt and told her to seal your mouth, that shouldn't be the case. He looked for everyone, right?" We'll just ask. "

He said it in a light tone, but at this moment, on the street, he met a random person. When they saw me, it was as if they saw a god of pests, and they immediately left in dejection.

Just at this moment, as he passed by a house, a bucket of water splashed out.

There were no sewers in the countryside, so the sewage would be splashed at the doorways in this manner. Sometimes, a single mistake could be made on a passerby.

This time, although it didn't splash onto Tang Ran and me, the two of us were still shocked.

When I unhappily looked over, I realised that I had some impression of this person. She was our village's famous tigress, Wang Chunmei.

No matter if it was fighting or arguing, they were all top leaders.

Moreover, this woman's fate was very hard. After she had killed three of her husbands, she was sent back to her family. Since then, no one dared to marry her, and only a few years after she returned home, her own parents died.

It was precisely because her life was too poisonous that the children she had given birth to in her family wouldn't let her meet them, fearing that her fate would affect them.

Almost all the men, women, and children in the village do not dare to provoke her, and after seeing her, they are all very polite to her, because everyone is afraid of her and says that she is a muddle-headed person, and "muddle-headed" means that she is a person that no one is allowed to provoke.

It's just that I've only heard about these things, and I still don't know much about what kind of person he is.

It was at this moment that I finally understood what a mother yaksha was.

It was one thing for her to not apologize to us, but when she saw us looking at her like this, she immediately started cursing, "What are you looking at? You're so young, yet you're not learning well. If you learn to mess with your family, there's no hope for you and your family."

After hearing what she said, I was so angry that I wanted to go up and give her a good beating.

But she was so fierce, I was afraid.

However, Tang Ran wasn't afraid.

At this time, he opened his eyes wide and immediately rushed forward. He angrily said to that person, "You old ladies, what are you saying?"

After hearing what he said, it turned out to be a ferocious and fiendish woman. This was not something to be trifled with.

She immediately grabbed onto his collar and dragged him inside. Then, she picked up a broom and was about to make a move.

Seeing this, I immediately rushed over.

However, as soon as she entered her house, she immediately kicked the door open.

With a bang, the door closed.

At the same time, she came up to me and covered my mouth.

After saying that, she subconsciously looked through the gap in the door.

After a while, he turned around and said to me, "Wait for me in the woods behind the village at 12 o'clock tonight. I'll tell your parents about it."

I started.

It all happened so fast that I still hadn't gotten over the panic that she was about to hit me. Now that she said this again, it made me feel a little surprised.

At this moment.

What I didn't expect was that she would yell again, "Little chick, don't run! Watch me beat you to death!"

After saying that, she opened the door and pushed against me and Tang Ran.

I have circles in my head.

However, he quickly understood and immediately pulled Tang Ran and ran.

Wang Chunmei tried to chase us a few steps, but Tang Ran and I ran too fast and she still couldn't catch up.

In this way, the two of us could finally escape her pursuit.

On the way back, I said to Tang Ran, "Are you alright? You really frightened me just now."

However, Tang Ran didn't seem to mind as he shook his head and said, "It's fine, don't talk. Let's talk when we get back."

He looked at the surroundings vigilantly before giving me a signal with his eyes.

The actions of Tang Ran and Wang Chunmei made our affair look like a huge secret service.

Originally, I wasn't too nervous.

At this moment, as he finished speaking, I started to get nervous.

Just like this, we walked around the village once more before returning home. By the time we returned, it was already time for lunch.

This was how boring life was in the rural areas. When there was nothing to do, most of the time, they would eat three meals, sleep, and then eat again as a cycle.

After eating, Tang Ran and I tidied up the garden in the backyard. After busying ourselves for the entire afternoon, we felt rather satisfied.

At dinner time, his father went somewhere and had just come back.

As soon as he sat down, he asked me, "You went to see your old aunt?"

It seems that he has a good grasp of our whereabouts.

With regards to this point, I didn't say much and immediately nodded my head.

At the same time he said, "What did your aunt say to you?"

He was obviously asking the obvious.

After all, he had already told his old aunt before, and it was a bit hypocritical to say this now.

At once I said indifferently, "No, nothing."

The corners of his mouth curled up. He looked like the smile of a victor as he said self-righteously, "That's good. Also, don't meddle in this matter. Child, you just have to do what a child should, don't you?"

At this point, his gaze landed on Tang Ran. When he said this, it sounded more like he was talking to Tang Ran.

However, Tang Ran didn't seem to hear him and continued to eat, ignoring his father's words.

After eating.

The two of us, sit in the yard and look at the stars.

At this moment, I whispered to Tang Ran, "Are you going tonight?"

Tang Ran listened and said as if it was a matter of course, "Of course, why not?"

I immediately felt a lot more relieved. I thought that my father would restrain himself when he said those words at dinner. I didn't expect that he would think the same thing as me.

At the same time, my father moved a stool and sat in the yard, just like us, looking up at the sky.

With him here, it won't be easy for us to get out.

Thus, I had to return to the house.

I waited for my father to return to his room and then prepared to leave.

Strangely, my father seemed to know what we were doing. At this time, he sat in the courtyard all the way until it was eleven in the evening.

At that time, my heart was already pounding.

Because I was afraid that Father wouldn't have known what we were doing. Otherwise, why would he do that?

I carefully made my way to Tang Ran's room.

At this moment, Tang Ran was as anxious as I was.

He asked in bewilderment, "Did your father find out? Why did he keep blocking the door?"

I think so too, but if you think about it, it's unlikely.

Then I said, "The possibility isn't high. After all, Wang Chunmei acted very well at that time, so Father has no reason to see through it."

Hearing what I said, Tang Ran nodded subconsciously.

At the same time, when the two of us looked towards the entrance, we couldn't help but notice that there was no one there.

For a moment, the two of us looked at each other in astonishment.

I was a little surprised by the sudden turn of events.

"Back to the house?" I asked.

Don Ran wasn't sure, but he still followed me.

At this moment, there was only a coat left on the chair and his father was nowhere to be seen.

The two of us snuck into Father's room, which was also empty.

Just when I was so happy about it that I was going to slip out.

I suddenly heard, "Why aren't you sleeping?"

Father's voice once again rang out from behind me in a very strange manner.

I was shocked, but very quickly, I said, "I'm going to sleep. I just don't have anywhere to put my clothes. I want to use that chair." I pointed to the chair by the door.

Father said, "Take it."

After I moved the chair, I returned to the room.

After turning off the light, I lie down in front of the window, my mind in a mess.

We were only one step away from the truth, but we were stopped by our father.

Soon, it was 12 o'clock at night.

But Father's room was still lit, and there was no way we could get out.

At this moment, to my surprise, there was a figure in the dark courtyard.

Upon closer inspection, it was the shadow of his father.

Once again, he took advantage of the darkness of the night and walked out of his house. As for where he went, he had no idea.

However, at this time, I was extremely happy. I helplessly watched as he walked out of the main door before running to the guest room and telling Tang Ran.

Tang Ran was extremely happy and immediately followed me out of the house.

The two of us squatted under a great locust tree outside the door.
