Are You Already Dead?

Liu Fugui shook his head and said, "This kind of woman abandoned me when I was at my lowest point. Now that I'm better, naturally I don't want her anymore."

Liu Shugen nodded and said:

"That's true. Aren't there any good women in Liu Family Village?"

Besides, there are plenty of good women in our mountain village, okay? Why do you have to go after her?

Liu Fugui looked at him and said:

"Now that I think about it, there's no need for it. You know my family has some skills; we specialize in making porcelain."

Every month when our village distributes dividends, my family receives several hundred coins.

Every household in our village has its own food supply. What kind of woman can't I find? Why does it have to be this kind?

The most disgusting thing is that after something like this happened, she told me to die, saying I was like a ghost.

Liu Fugui was genuinely heartbroken; he had treated his fiancée quite well.

Knowing that his fiancée was Ruyi at home, he took her in. They had originally planned to get married at the end of this month.

But what kind of marriage is this now?

He was just about to go home when he heard the woman's voice. "Good brother..."

The man hugged her and said, "Yinggu, I've missed you so much! Let's have some fun tonight and not go back, okay?"

Yinggu nodded and said, "Yes, we're not going back today, but it's too cold out here in the middle of nowhere."

The man hugged her and said, "Don't be afraid, we've already started a fire, it's not convenient to do it at home."

Yinggu was so angry she wanted to grind her teeth.

"You know, that piece of trash was completely useless, yet he was burned like that."

You didn't even see it, it was practically a ghost, it scared me to death.

"If I were with a man like that, wouldn't I have nightmares every night?"

The man immediately put his arm around her and said:

My darling, you've suffered because of me.

However, we've had such a comfortable time in Black Wind Stronghold. Once we leave Black Wind Stronghold, there's nowhere else that's as comfortable.

What's more, he gives you a hundred coins every month, that's too good to be true!

"We two have no worries about food and clothing here. If we really went back to Jujube Grove Village, we wouldn't have such a good life!"

Yinggu naturally understood what he meant, and she immediately wrapped her arms around his neck and said:

"But I don't want to! It's a piece of trash, and now it's probably useless."

If he dies this time, it would be a good thing; his family will definitely receive a lot of compensation.

If they sacrifice themselves for the sake of the mountain stronghold, the stronghold will definitely compensate their families with a sum of money.

The bandit leader, hearing that he was generous, might just pay out 50 or 100 taels of silver.

"If we get this money, we'll run away together. What do you think?"

The man kissed her hard and said, "You're so smart, let's do it this way."

The two were locked in a fierce fight when Liu Fugui suddenly descended from the sky.

The two were so terrified they nearly wet themselves. Yinggu screamed:

Who are you? Are you already dead?

Don't come looking for me even if you die! It wasn't me who killed you.

The man was so terrified he wet himself. "You... a ghost... a ghost! Help, Yinggu, please save me!"

Yinggu is now in dire straits herself, and she keeps groping for the clothes she has hidden in the grass.

I can't find it no matter how hard I look.

The trees nearby laughed loudly:

"Wanwan, this woman is so interesting!"

They've got some nerve; they're capable of anything.

Zhou Wanwan sat in the tree, looking down at everything.

I was grumbling to myself. I was hoping to watch a free movie, but I was interrupted halfway through. What a disappointment.

The man also tried to find his clothes, but he couldn't find them anywhere.

All the clothes were hanging at the very top of the tree, so naturally they couldn't find them, and the nearby trees couldn't stand it either.

They took all their clothes.

The man shuddered and asked, "Where are our clothes?"

Yinggu shook her head and immediately covered her face, bursting into tears.

Liu Fugui sneered:

"What are you crying about? What's there to cry about? Isn't this your cousin?"

You actually started hanging out with your cousin! When I brought you here, you even begged me to bring your cousin along too.

Yinggu, what are you up to?

Yinggu said Rourou and weakly:

"Fugui and status are not what you think at all."

I'm just... just feeling really upset. You were burned like this, and it makes me feel so choked up.

That's why... that's why I did something wrong, please forgive me!

Liu Fugui gritted his teeth and said:

"Spare you? Why should I spare you?"

Yinggu, you pack your bags right now, take your so-called cousin, and get back home.

Yinggu knelt down with a thud:

"Fugui, it's all my fault. Please, please, let us stay in the mountain stronghold!"

We'd be willing to do anything for you, even be your slave.

Liu Fugui said sarcastically:

"Do you think Black Wind Stronghold is short of cattle and horses? Get out of here right now!"

If your things aren't packed by tomorrow, I'm just going to throw you away.

The older cousin immediately stood up and said:

"So what if we have to deal with it? Don't think you can do whatever you want just because you have a master."

We'll leave then; we might even be better off without you!

Don't you even look at your mountain stronghold? It's nothing but a den of thieves and bandits.

You won't live much longer. We should have left long ago, cousin. Let's pack our bags and go!

Yinggu looked at Liu Fugui and said:

"Fugui, you know my family situation. My parents don't like me. Please, please take me in!"

I promise I'll listen to you from now on.

Yinggu's family situation was not good. She had two younger brothers and six younger sisters, and her marriage was arranged by her family.

But she didn't like Liu Fugui at all; she always liked her cousin.

His cousin was a poor scholar who struggled to even afford food.

Having no other choice, Yinggu directly stated her condition: she could come to Black Wind Stronghold with Liu Fugui.

But she had to bring her cousin up; she hadn't expected there to be a school in Black Wind Stronghold.

Her cousin came here not only to eat and drink for free, but also to study. Once her cousin passed the imperial examinations, the two of them could be together openly.

Who knew this would happen?

Zhou Wanwan asked the surrounding plants and learned everything about the two people's affair.

Watching this scene from the tree, she said, "Is Liu Fugui still planning to take this woman in? That would be utterly disgusting."

She will indeed save those who deserve it, but if Liu Fugui truly chooses Yinggu, she will immediately turn away and not interfere in other people's karma.

Liu Fugui slapped him across the face:

You know your parents don't like you, and you know they want to sell you.

I spent five taels of silver to save you.

This is all the money our family has, and what did you do? You brought your lover to our house.

What? Do you think our family is easy to bully?
