After changing clothes and drinking ginger soup, Fang Hongying was wrapped in a quilt, her face was still frighteningly green. Mother Fang was shocked and angry, "Damn girl, I asked you to carry water, why did you carry yourself into the well? It's really useless!"

Although I feel sorry for my daughter, I still can't help but talk about it.

Fang Hongying burst into tears, "There is a ghost. Am I being haunted by a water ghost?"

"Why are you talking nonsense? You don't have a fever." Mother Fang was worried, and tried to see that her forehead was not very hot. "Damn girl, what are you talking about!"

"Mom, I'm not talking nonsense, I'm so scared!" Fang Hongying threw herself into her mother's arms and cried loudly.

After all, it was her own child, and no matter how much she disliked it, Mother Fang couldn't complain. After persuading her for a long time, she finally stopped crying.

"Have a good sleep, you'll be fine when you wake up!"

"Mom, don't go, I'm scared!" Wang Hongying said pitifully, "I don't dare to sleep. As soon as I close my eyes, I feel like I'm soaking in water. It scares me to death."

"Did you get into trouble with the water?" Mother Fang frowned as she thought of what happened before.

"I must be trapped by a water ghost. Mom, please think of a way to save me!" Fang Hongying said anxiously.

"What water ghost?"

"It's true! Last time, I was standing well on the shore, but suddenly my feet slipped and I fell into the river. There were hands in the water grabbing me and dragging me down. But if I hadn't reacted in time, I would have drowned!"

With runny noses and tears, I continued to cry, "And just now, I was far away from the mouth of the well, standing very steady, as if someone pushed me in front of me, and pushed me into the well forcefully."

"Who pushed you!" Mother Fang was anxious.

"There is no one, but I can feel that the invisible person pushed, it must be the water ghost!" Fang Hong spoke sharply in English, with a look of fear in her eyes.

The daughter said solemnly, and Mother Fang's face became serious. She thought about asking the goddess to see if the child had collided with something.

"There are no water ghosts. Stop being suspicious. Don't go to those places in the future. I'll ask Sanpo Gu later!"

After being comforted by her mother, Fang Hongying rested peacefully.

When Li Xiaofang next door learned the news, her face turned pale with fright. She was in a hurry and wanted to come over to visit, but her mother took her back and said, "Where are you going?"

"I went to see Hongying. I heard that she fell into the well." Li Xiaofang's voice trembled slightly.

"It doesn't matter whether others live or die, just be honest!" Mother Li scolded sternly.

"Don't mention the Fang family. Your aunt has found a wife. We will see you in two days. We will be waiting at home to get married!"

"Mom, I don't want to get married yet. You clearly know what I'm thinking." Li Xiaofang wanted to fight for it, but what she got was two hard slaps from her mother.

"Damn girl! It's not embarrassing enough!"

"What did I do that was embarrassing?" Li Xiaofang covered her face and cried, "Is it wrong to like someone? Can't I strive for my own happiness?"

"Don't say these useless things. If you have the means to steal Fang Baosteel, Mom won't be able to say a word. But you are not so lucky, and you want to make it known to everyone and make people laugh, so give up!"

"Mom! Give me another chance!"

Li Xiaofang said eagerly, "Brother Baosteel is going to be promoted to a higher level and his salary will be more. If I marry him, I will definitely help our family." Li Xiaofang drew the big picture.

Mother Li curled her lips, "I don't know the benefits of marrying Fang Baogang, but people look down on you. If you go back to the army, you won't be able to come back until the year of the monkey!"

"If you are willing to wait, our family will not support an old girl, so you have to calm down as soon as possible. If you dare to interact with the Fang family again, I will break your legs!"

Being threatened by her mother, Li Xiaofang did not dare to say anything.

Fang Hongying started making trouble again. She had nightmares every time she closed her eyes, yelling that there was a ghost trying to catch her, and she was crying.

Mother Fang saw that her daughter was not in good condition, so she secretly asked Sanpo Gu for help. Gu Sanpo used to be a goddess and had some skills.

In today's world, blatant superstition is not allowed. Gu Sanpo was afraid of being tortured and didn't want to agree. Mother Fang generously promised to give her ten eggs and two kilograms of fine grain, so she agreed to come and have a look.

Taking advantage of the darkness, Sanpo Gu quietly came to Fang's house and looked around in front of Fang Hongying. She didn't know what she saw. She muttered words that others could not understand.

Her solemn expression suggested that Fang Hongying had indeed hit something. She took a piece of yellow paper and lit it on fire, then circled twice in front of the dull-looking Fang Hongying and babbled.

The burned paper turned into ashes in the water and she was allowed to drink it. It must have been a psychological effect. After drinking it, Fang Hongying no longer had nightmares about drowning.

At this point, both Fang Hongying and Li Xiaofang have experienced drowning twice. Mingyue will not give up. The original owner's life has been harmed by them. How can this punishment be enough!

Entering the twelfth lunar month, Mingyue received a telegram from her family, saying that the matter of buying a job was finalized and she was not to make it public, so she was asked to take leave to go back to visit relatives.

Mingyue went to the village committee to ask for leave, issued a certificate, came back to pack some of her belongings, and distributed the rest to the educated youth in need before returning to the city.

It was not stated clearly, but everyone also knew that Hao Mingyue would not come back when he returned to the city this time. He would be lying if he said he was not envious. No one wanted to cause damage or maliciously obstructed her.

"Didi! The mission progress is 60%!" The female devil is about to leave, and Fang Tou feels that his heroine is safe.

Mingyue's departure does not mean that she will let certain people go. Arrangements were made before she left.

In a blink of an eye, it is the eighteenth day of the twelfth lunar month, and every household is busy sweeping the dust. Women will move out the furniture and clean it thoroughly, remove the cobwebs from the corners of the house, and clean the doors and windows to welcome the new year.

The Fang family and the Li family are also busy. At this time, the water tanks in every household must be filled with water in advance to facilitate the women to wash and rinse.

The water tanks under the eaves of the two houses were also full. Under the instruction of her mother, Li Xiaofang carried a wooden basin to scoop out water and prepared to clean the windows.

The moment she bent down to scoop out water, a huge force suddenly hit the back of her head, as if an invisible hand was pressing down on her head.

Li Xiaofang was pushed into the water tank in an upside-down position.

The large water tanks in rural areas are half as tall as a person, and could drown a person if filled with water.

Li Xiaofang was miserable. She suddenly fell into the water. She struggled desperately, but her head was restrained and she could not escape at all.

Her hands moved feebly, unable to grasp the evil place at all. Her head was facing down, and her feet were already off the ground.

My mouth and nose were full of water, and I couldn't breathe at all. I was forced to open my mouth to drink water, which was bubbling.

All this happened very quickly. Fortunately, there were others in the family. When they saw the eldest sister falling headlong into the water tank, the younger siblings were stunned.

Shouting, "Mom and Dad, come on, my eldest sister fell into the water tank!"

The parents were busy at work, and when they heard that the son had fallen into the water tank, they subconsciously thought that their youngest son was playful and had fallen into the tank and died, so he ran over.

Unexpectedly, he saw his eldest daughter lying upside down in the vat. Father Li stepped forward, grabbed Li Xiaofang's leg, and pulled her back violently.

The force was too great, and both father and daughter stepped back and fell at the same time.

Finally leaving the water, Li Xiaofang gasped for breath, but received a heavy slap from her mother, "What the hell are you doing, you scared me to death!"

The mother's slap brought Li Xiaofang back to her senses, and she threw herself into her arms in horror, "I almost drowned!"

"Damn girl, my clothes are all wet!" Mother Li cursed and dragged her into the room to warm herself by the fire.

"I asked you to scoop water, but why did you stick your head in the water tank? If you don't want to live, you go out to seek death. How unlucky!"
