"Junior brother, I'll take a step first... Xiangning, Xiangning, wait for me..."

Qiu Sheng didn't want to be locked outside, so he hurriedly went after his wife.

As soon as he left, Fei Bao seemed to calm down, shook his head and smiled bitterly, "Forget it, it's just three copper coins, I'm not unlucky."

After saying that, he turned around and wanted to return to the stall.

“Wait ~”

Unexpectedly, Zhou Yu raised his hand.

"Fei Bao, since you have chased you, why not go and see it together?"

"Ah? Are you going to take that female ghost?"

Zhou Yu smiled mysteriously: "You will know in a while, let's go!"

In fact, he received a task to extradite female ghosts.

As the saying goes, there is a difference between Yang and Yang. If the ghost stays in the living world for a long time, it is considered illegal residence.

Extradition means sending the ghost to the underworld.

To put it bluntly, it is called repatriation.

Fei Bao hesitated for a while, and finally couldn't help but keep curiosity following closely.

The two walked through the alley together and came to a wasteland.

Not far away, there is an abandoned and broken courtyard, and one of the rooms is still on.

"Shh~"

Zhou Yu gestured to silence, raised his waist and tiptoed into the yard.

In the room with the lights on, the female ghost was sitting by the bed, holding a bowl, and feeding an old woman to drink porridge.

"Mom, be careful."

“Oh~”

The old woman responded.

Fei Bao glanced through the crack in the window, and couldn't help but squatted down and leaned into Zhou Yu's ear and said, "I didn't expect there were two ghosts..."

Zhou Yu shook his head: "There is only one."

Fei Bao looked surprised: "Ah? Then..."

At this time, the female ghost seemed to sense the movement and subconsciously glanced at the window.

After feeding the porridge, the female ghost said to the old woman again: "Mom, lie down for a while, I'll go and see if the medicine has been boiled."

“Okay~”

The old woman lay down as she said.

Soon after, the female ghost walked into the yard and looked up.

I think I have noticed someone in the yard.

“嘘,嘘~”

At the base of the wall, Fei Bao plucked the courage to shush the female ghost twice, and raised his hand to signal her to come over.

The female ghost hesitated for a while and finally came over.

"Brother, listen to my explanation, I didn't mean it...

My mother is still alive, she doesn't know that I'm dead, I don't want her to be sad..."

"You... don't come over, explain to him."

Fei Bao quickly retreated.

Then, Zhou Yu walked out.

"ah……"

The female ghost felt something was wrong and couldn't help but exclaim and wanted to escape.

Zhou Yu tried his best to slow down and said, "You don't have to be afraid, I'm not here to accept you."

The female ghost looked at Zhou Yu with a look of surprise, like a frightened little white rabbit.

"Master, please let me go and don't send me away. My mother is sick. I want to stay and take care of her..."

"Ahem cough ~"

As if responding to his daughter's words, a violent cough came from the room.

Seeing that this female ghost was so filial, Fei Bao's previous hatred disappeared, but instead he begged for her.

"It's rare that she is so filial to be a ghost. Wouldn't you let her go?"

Zhou Yu shook his head and said to the female ghost: "You are filial, but humans and ghosts have different paths.

If you stay by your mother's side, your yin energy will make her condition worse."

"Ah? This..." The female ghost was stunned for a moment, then she knelt down with tears: "Please think of a way for me to be with my mother to take care of her."

"May I have your name?"

"Reply to the mage, my name is Xiaohong."

"If you stay in the world like this, you will lose the opportunity to be reincarnated and become a lonely ghost."

Hearing Zhou Yu's words, Xiaohong couldn't help but say bitterly: "I'm already a lonely ghost..."

"Hmm? What's going on?"

Xiaohong's eyes turned red, and she cried and she told the whole story.

It turned out that she used to be a maid in a wealthy family in Majiachang.

One night, the master got drunk and ran to her room to touch her...

Xiaohong shouted desperately, and finally led his wife over.

In anger, the lady sold Xiaohong to Yingchun Pavilion in the town without any worries.

In less than a month, Xiaohong couldn't bear the humiliation and committed suicide.

In order not to affect business, the brothel owner strictly blocked the news and ordered his subordinates to quietly bury Xiaohong's body in the backyard.

"They were afraid that I would become a ghost and retaliate, so they asked someone to cast magic overnight, which made me unable to reincarnate now, and I would not dare to go back to Yingchun Pavilion..."

Hearing Xiaohong's experience, Fei Bao couldn't help but scold: "It's outrageous, too much!"

"Xiaohong, Xiaohong, who is talking?"

The old lady's voice came from the room.

Xiaohong quickly replied: "Mom, it's nothing, I'm talking by myself."

Zhou Yu thought for a while and said, "In this way, you stay here first, and I will find a way to retrieve your corpse."

"That's great, thank you, thank you, thank you,..."

Xiaohong was very grateful and thanked her continuously.

Not long after, Zhou Yu returned to the stall with Fei Bao.

"Come on, have a bowl of porridge, and I'll close the stall anyway."

Fei Bao generously scooped a large bowl of porridge and put it in front of Zhou Yu.

Zhou Yu scooped a few spoons and asked casually: "By the way, how much can you earn in a month when selling porridge?"

Fei Bao looked embarrassed and said embarrassedly: "I can't save a few dollars a year even if I manage a small business."

"What should you do with your betrothal gift?"

"have no idea……"

"Fei Bao, maybe your father-in-law is a little snobbish.

But, thinking from the perspective of others, he only has one only daughter, so he naturally doesn’t want his daughter to live a poor life after getting married.”

After all, Zhou Yu is a time traveler and still has a say in this regard.

As the saying goes, "A poor couple is sad for everything."

What seven fairies marry the cowherd, the poor scholar marry the white snake, the nerd meet Nie Xiaoqian...

All are daydreaming.

A fairy tale compiled for the people.

Even the songs are sung like this: "You cry and say to me, fairy tales are all lies..."

For example, the famous talented and beautiful women in history, Sima Xiangru and Zhuo Wenjun, did they eventually return to Linqiong to sell wine?

If you can have enough food and clothing, you will be willing to live a poor life.
