Chapter 25 Who says the dead can't testify?
"Spring Willow? You're not...?"
Upon seeing the person, Wang's heart skipped a beat, and her expression immediately changed.
This girl was determined to curry favor with her and secure a better future, but she did a lot of dirty work for her behind her back. The curse was cast by her own hands.
She knew that Granny Sun had a lot of influence over her and had often tried to curry favor with her, so she might know something.
But didn't Yin Liuli beat her up and sell her off?
When the brokers came to take her away, everyone in the manor saw it.
Even the most meticulous plans can have a flaw; Wang never expected that this vixen could pull off a counterattack!
Yin Yuzhu clenched her fists, her eyes coldly fixed on her, her venomous gaze silently warning, "Dare to speak out of turn, and you're dead!"
The old man had originally intended to smooth things over with a few words, but he hadn't expected Yin Liuli to have this trick up her sleeve. He had no choice but to bite the bullet and demand an explanation.
"Who is in the hall?"
"This servant, Chunliu, greets the old master."
Chunliu's eyes were filled with fear and panic. She prostrated herself on the ground and trembled as she said, "This servant was originally Madam Zhen's personal maid."
The once well-dressed young lady, who had a certain air about her in front of others, now looked like a disheveled ghost, her pale oval face was covered in black soot, and her satin clothes were crumpled beyond recognition.
Granny Jin watched with a sense of satisfaction, and secretly spat.
"Those who betray their master deserve it!"
The old man said with a stern face,
"You lowly servant, Liuli claims you're a witness, but what can you testify to? This concerns the reputation of our noble family. How dare you speak such nonsense? Be careful, you'll be punished according to family rules!"
Chunliu shuddered and said hurriedly,
"This servant wouldn't dare! Every word this servant has spoken is the truth. May I be struck by lightning if I dare utter even one falsehood!"
The old man's face darkened slightly.
"I ask you, did you put something... a nightmare curse in Zhen's pillow? And who ordered you to do it!"
This girl probably didn't understand what he meant.
Am I asking you to tell the truth?
I'm telling you to take it easy and not to blurt out everything!
Chunliu eagerly raised her head.
"Yes, it was Madam Wang who ordered me to do it. She said it was a talisman that could drive people insane, and she told me to burn it and mix the ashes into Madam Zhen's pillow..."
"Spring Willow!"
Before she could finish speaking, Wang suddenly jumped up and shouted angrily.
"In the past, Madam Japan treated you very well! You yourself said that you had no chance of getting ahead in that dilapidated courtyard, and begged me to show you a way out, so I took good care of you."
Now you dare to accuse me of something? Tell me, what benefits did that vixen Yin Liuli give you?
"mother!"
Yin Yuzhu hurriedly stopped her, but it was too late.
At this time, the best course of action is to distance yourself from Chunliu and deny everything to the death. Otherwise, you'll just be handing her something to talk about!
"idiot!"
She cursed inwardly.
"Chunliu didn't falsely accuse Madam; I'm telling the truth!"
Chunliu raised her bloodshot eyes and looked at her, gritting her teeth as she said, "It is precisely because Chunliu secretly sided with the Madam that she knows those things that others do not know!"
Lady Wang had always been jealous of Lady Zhen's beauty and delicate figure, which often led the master to spend the night in her room. She not only had her servants cast a nightmare spell on Lady Zhen, but also had Granny Sun place a dead man's bone under Lady Zhen's bed!
"hiss……"
A collective gasp filled the main hall.
Chunliu's words were tantamount to confirming her mother's wrongdoing, so Yin Yuzhu could only grit her teeth and argue back.
"Chunliu, you're slandering my mother with baseless accusations. Do you have any proof?"
Chunliu turned her pale, ghost-like face away and sneered.
"I am quite close to Granny Sun in private, and she told me all of this herself!"
Granny Sun also said that the so-called dead man's bones were bought by Madam Zhen from Granny Ma at a high price. They had been there for several years, and although Madam Zhen was plagued by illness, she had only managed to stay alive. Why were they so difficult to kill?
Madam Wang's vision went black, and she almost couldn't catch her breath.
Privately, she had said to Granny Sun, "Why is that bitch so hard to kill?" Little did she know that Chunliu also knew.
"Because Madam Zhen did not die, Madam Wang summoned Chunliu that day and gave her a yellow paper talisman to burn and place in Madam Zhen's pillow."
Chunliu's dirty face was full of regret as she covered her face and cried.
"She...she promised me that after the Fourth Young Master got married, she would betroth me to him as a concubine. I was blinded by greed at the time, and...and..."
"nonsense!"
Yin Yuzhu could no longer contain herself and rebuked him sharply.
"Grandma Sun is dead, there's no way to verify her identity. You think she's the one who says it is?"
"I could say that you betrayed your master, that you hated that following your master meant you had no future, and that you harmed your master yourself!"
"What, is Miss Yin desperate, resorting to such measures?"
A cold glint flashed in Yin Liuli's eyes, and a chilling smile curled at the corner of her lips as she said softly,
"Who says a dead person can't come forward to testify... Granny Sun, Granny Ma, should we call them all out and let them tell you themselves?"
Yin Yuzhu felt a chill run down her spine.
A tingling chill ran from the back of her neck to the soles of her feet. She instinctively took a step back, pointing a trembling finger at Yin Liuli's nose.
"Yin Liuli, you...you mustn't do this! This is the main hall of my Yin family, where the ancestral tablets of my Yin clan are enshrined. You are not allowed to act so presumptuously here!"
"Yuzhu is right. This is where our Yin family worships our ancestors. How can we allow those wandering ghosts to come and desecrate it..."
"I heard that Granny Sun died bleeding from all seven orifices, didn't she?"
"Are you trying to summon the souls of the dead?"
……
Not only her, but all the elders of the Yin family present in the main hall felt a chill creeping up their necks.
The old man slammed his hand on the table, his face turning ashen.
"Liuli, you...you dare to be so insolent!"
"Even if you don't act recklessly, you've acted recklessly many times!"
Yin Liuli coldly swept her gaze across the crowd, her voice sharp and stern, "If I don't expose Wang's crimes before you today, wouldn't all the suffering my mother has endured over the years have been in vain?"
Having said that, she raised her hand and drew a soul-summoning talisman in the air above her palm. With a flick of her slender fingers, a faint ray of light swept across her fingertips.
"Granny Sun, Granny Ma, come here!"
A gust of cold wind suddenly rose from the center of the main hall, swirling around everyone's feet.
A chilling and eerie atmosphere spread like a fog, and a chilling sensation, like an open spider web, seeped into one's body, sending an indescribable, eerie, and icy current through the entire body.
The elders of the Yin family present gripped the armrests of their chairs tightly, their bodies stiff as if they were writing brushes, their faces filled with fear and unease.
"They're here..."
As a ghostly, chilling voice rang out, two black oil-paper umbrellas suddenly floated up outside the door...
Two blurry human figures slowly emerged from under the black umbrella, one dressed as a nanny and the other dressed as a Taoist nun.
Their faces seemed shrouded in a thin mist, their grayish complexions gleaming with an eerie bluish light.
