The unlucky guy was reborn as a lucky girl from a farm

Chapter 581: So Stupid

I kept wondering: Why hasn't Ni'er come back yet? Could something have happened?

Seeing Yan Zi fidgeting, the third brother quickly comforted her, "Don't worry, Ni Er may have just been delayed on the way, nothing will happen."

Swallow was about to go out with a bulging belly.

"I gonna go see."

The third brother hurriedly stopped him.

"You are pregnant now, you can't run around. It will be troublesome if you get a miscarriage. Just stay here and I promise that Ni'er will be home soon."

Although Yan Zi still felt a little uneasy, she knew that what the third brother said made sense, so she had no choice but to stay at home obediently.

She prayed silently in her heart, hoping that Ni'er would come back safely.

Finally, when Ni'er appeared at the door, Yan Zi's heart, which had been hanging in the air, finally settled down like a stone.

She hurried over to him and asked with concern, "Why did you come back so late?"

Nier really didn't want her mother to know her true situation, fearing that her mother would worry overly, so she could only make up an excuse to deal with her mother's questions.

"Master asked me to work a little longer, so I came back a little late."

Nier tried her best to make her tone sound relaxed and natural, as if this was just a very ordinary thing.

Yan Zi looked at Ni'er distressedly, her eyes full of care, and said softly, "Don't tire yourself out."

Nier quickly replied with a smile: "Mom, I'm not tired, really not at all. Look, I walked and jumped all the way back!"

As she spoke, she jumped a few times, as if to prove that what she said was true.

The news that Ni'er paid for the patient's funeral out of her own pocket quickly spread to other villages.

In recent days, Lao Zhu has been immersed in the pain of losing the box and unable to extricate himself.

"How could this happen? How could the box disappear?" Old Zhu pounded his thigh angrily, his face full of regret and remorse.

He really couldn't understand why the box disappeared inexplicably.

Moreover, I heard from others that Ni'er only collected money from one person, so why did she put the money in such a big box?

And the box was quite heavy, obviously it contained more than just that little money.

Since Nier paid for it herself, what was in the box?

Lao Zhu was very confused about this matter. He thought hard but could not find the answer.

It is not a good idea to ask others directly about this kind of thing, because if you do that, wouldn't your theft be exposed?

Therefore, he had to come up with a foolproof method.

While Lao Zhu was thinking hard, Ni'er took the opportunity to quietly spread the news.

"Have you heard? Nier took the young man's ashes to where she worked! Moreover, she waited until she could move around freely before taking the ashes to bury them."

"Wow, she's really brave! I definitely wouldn't do that if it were me. My brain would freeze when I think about being with ashes. I'd probably be too scared to even move."

"Yes, she is really brave. She is not afraid of any accidents. After all, it is not good for the dead to be together with the living."

"Oh, don't say that. Who would care about that at that time? Several people died every day. People were not afraid of the dead, so how could they be afraid of ashes?"

"That's true. Ni'er is kind-hearted after all."

These words entered Lao Zhu's ears.

He suddenly realized that the box was actually an urn!

This discovery shocked him, as if the whole world collapsed at this moment.

His eyes widened, recalling the appearance of the box. The weight and size were exactly the same as the urn. There was no doubt that it was the urn!

Old Zhu regretted it deeply. How could he be so stupid as to steal the ashes thinking it was a money box?

He spent so much time and effort guarding the box, not letting anyone get close, for fear that his secret would be discovered, but he didn't expect that all this was in vain.

"I'm so stupid!" Lao Zhu slapped his head hard, his heart full of self-blame and regret.

He thought of the lies about the haunting that he had made up to cover up the incident.

Now it seems quite normal that the place where the urns are buried is haunted!

How can you be so accurate?

When he thought of this, Lao Zhu couldn't help but feel a chill down his spine and spreading throughout his body.

No wonder he had been having nightmares recently, and that young man always appeared in his dreams, rushing towards him, and he woke up in fright every time.

Lao Zhu's face turned very ugly, his legs began to become weak, and he could hardly stand.

Although it was a hot day under the sun, he felt extremely cold. He couldn't help but shrink his neck, hug his arms, and his body shivered like a sieve.

"Old Zhu, what's wrong with you? Are you cold?" People passing by looked at Old Zhu with suspicion, and were really puzzled.

The sun was shining brightly in the sky and I was sweating all over. How could he be shivering from the cold?

I saw that Lao Zhu's lips had turned purple from the cold, and his hands were shaking like sieves, and he kept muttering, "It's so cold, so cold..."

Seeing this, the passers-by hurried forward to support Lao Zhu and asked with concern: "Let me help you go back, are you sick?"

Old Zhu nodded weakly and said incoherently, "Hey..."

That night, Lao Zhu's condition became more serious and he collapsed to the ground.

There was only a straw mattress on the ground.

He closed his eyes tightly, but kept mumbling some incomprehensible words.

"Don't come to me, go away..."

"Please, let's go, I will definitely go to pay tribute to you..."

"I'll bring you some good food and wine, stay away from me..."

These words sound like a conversation with someone, but also like one is talking to oneself.

When people passing by heard this, they felt horrified.

After a period of busy work, the new house of the third family was finally built.

This house is still a mud house and has not changed much compared to the previous house.

Due to time constraints, the workers had to rush to work for the next family, and the third brother and his family were eager to move into the new house, so they did not spend too much time and energy on this new house.

Nier stood in front of the new house, with an indescribable feeling in her heart.

The house was both familiar and strange, similar to the previous one but not exactly the same.

However, for Nier, having a house to shelter from wind and rain is already a very happy thing.
