Chapter 574 - 574: The devil’s haunting presence (1)

they say that the village has some quirks. It’s a village rule passed down from generation to generation.

“There is a pair of red lanterns hanging at the entrance of the village, and there is a hunchbacked old lady standing guard at the entrance. There were three rules in the village: Firstly, five to six year old girls are not allowed to enter the village. Secondly, people with the surname Jiang are not allowed to enter the village. Thirdly, chubby children are not allowed to enter the village.” The eunuch replied softly.

Even he was surprised that there was such a unique rule in the village.

Hearing this, Lu huaijiang raised his eyebrows and looked at the sleeping baby in his arms.

The little girl’s chubby belly rose and fell slightly. She fell asleep and smacked her lips from time to time. Occasionally, he could hear her reciting the names of the dishes.

Lu huaijiang suddenly sneered and let out a low laugh.

Why did he feel that the village had only almost mentioned Jiang huailu’s name?

She was a five or six-year-old girl with the surname Jiang. She was chubby, and every dress seemed to be tailor-made for her.

Every single one of them was pointing at her, but he had no evidence!

Lu huaijiang thought that it would be better to take her there.

This anxiousness directly sped up the process.

The carriage galloped all the way to the village, but the little girl did not show any signs of waking up in jiangjiang’s arms.

Ming su’s entire body ached from the jolting. She got into the carriage and took off her veil.

“His Highness really does not know how to be tender to a woman. This young lady’s skin is thin and tender, what should we do if she is jolted?” The usually calm head maidservant’s face was full of anxiety. She took a brocade quilt and wrapped the girl several times before she felt better.

Ming su didn’t have the strength to speak.

His Highness was a man, so he ate quickly and politely. However, she was a woman, and she pursued the principle of eating slowly. When Lulu arrived just now, His Highness immediately got into the carriage.

As a result, she was not full at all.

At this moment, his stomach was empty, and he directly retched.

“Young lady, quickly eat something to fill your stomach. Later, you will be better after boiling some hot soup to warm your stomach.” He looked out of the window. The carriage had stopped.

“Young lady, we’re almost at the village from last time. That old lady from last time was still standing at the village entrance. She’s really dedicated to her work.” The servant girl exclaimed.

It was the first time he saw the old lady standing under a Red Lantern, and he was shocked.

Ming su covered the churning in her stomach and forced herself to get up.”Your Highness, let’s go and talk about this.” The old lady didn’t seem to be easy to talk to, so Ming su got off the carriage with her.

She had been back in the capital for two months, and at least her reputation of being a gentle and virtuous lady had spread.

“I’ll have to trouble young lady Ming.” The eunuch saw miss Ming get off the carriage and saluted her.

Then, they went to the village head to reconcile with the hunchbacked old lady.

The old lady’s face was filled with kindness, and anyone who saw her would think that she was kind.

“We don’t have a six or seven year old girl here, but we do have a boy. We will be staying in the village for a day, and hope that old Furen will fulfill our wish.” The eunuch handed over the silver, and the old lady grinned, her smile becoming more and more kind.

“Old Madam, why does the village not allow a chubby six or seven year old girl with the surname Jiang to enter? Is that girl’s fate bad?” Miss Ming was full of curiosity. Seeing His Highness’s carriage approach, she couldn’t help but ask.

Who knew that the old lady, who had been kind just now, would suddenly turn green?

His expression was serious and solemn.

“Young lady can not speak nonsense. It is that young lady’s fate that is precious and the small village is not worthy of her. Only people like you are fit to live in our village.” The old lady had just finished speaking when she heard someone yawning in the carriage closest to her.

She even called out to Jiang Jiang.

The hunchbacked old lady suddenly shivered when she heard the voice.

“Is it the Demon King?”
