Three times married to Yama

"Why are you looking for a new candidate?" I asked.

Pei Yu shook his head. "I don't know, but I do know that the new candidate they're talking about needs to be a young girl."

Young girl...

My expression hardened slightly. Even though I didn't know the whole story, just from Pei Yu's two sentences, I knew that Old Master Pei and that mysterious person definitely didn't have good intentions.

I suspect they were referring to choosing a new person to form a new "yin wealth ghost" so that the Pei family's wealth could continue.

I couldn't help but sneer. They were being far too simplistic. The backlash from the Yin Wealth Ghost hadn't even been dealt with yet, and they already wanted a new one? Did they think the Pei family hadn't been wiped out fast enough?

"And then?" I asked patiently.

Pei Yu looked at me, remained silent for a moment, and carefully observed my expression. "I suspect that the girl they chose will be Sister Jiayin."

So Pei Yu came to find me because of Pei Jiayin?

"Sister, if the girl who was chosen really is Sister Jiayin... would you help her?" Pei Yu asked me this question very carefully and humbly.

Instead of answering him, I asked, "Why do you think Pei Jiayin was the one chosen?"

Pei Yu lowered his head and said softly, "I heard from Grandpa that in order to avoid attracting attention from outsiders, this time we'll choose a young woman from the Pei family."

"There are three young girls in the Pei family. Besides Sister Jiayin, the other two are the only daughters of my second and third uncles. Only Sister Jiayin has no blood relation to the Pei family, so I guess the girl that Grandpa chose might be Sister Jiayin."

I think Pei Yu's analysis makes a lot of sense. If that's the case, then Pei Jiayin is indeed in some danger.

"Sister, can you save Jiayin?" Pei Yu looked at me with pleading eyes.

I neither refused nor agreed, but said to Pei Yu, "Don't rush, things in the Pei family are not that simple. Let's wait for news from Madam Pei."

Pei Yu wanted to say something more, but when I glanced at him casually, he immediately fell silent.

I told him, "Go back and find out more. Let me know if you hear anything. Be careful."

After I finished speaking, I took out a talisman and handed it to him. This talisman could temporarily protect him.

If Pei Yu dies, my mother will be heartbroken.

"Thank you, sister," Pei Yu said gratefully as he accepted the amulet.

I nodded, raised my hand and waved to him, and he tactfully left first.

Looking at the time, I felt that Xia Zheng had rested enough and it was time for him to get up and work.

I was just about to go find Xia Zheng when I didn't expect that Xia Zheng had come to find me first.

The moment Xia Zheng saw me, he seemed to transform into a whiny monster.

"Waaaaah, Master~"

He whimpered and lunged at me, wanting to give me a hug.

As soon as I got closer, a small figure appeared between us.

She is a virgin.

She spread her arms to block my way, her round little face stern as she looked at Xia Zheng. "Hey, hey, hey, Madam's apprentice! How dare you hug Madam? With me here today, you won't even get close to my Madam!"

I looked at the small figure in front of me with some surprise. "What are you doing, little girl?"

The young girl gave a haughty snort, hands on her hips, "I'm defending my Lord Yama's love!"

I,"……"

At this moment, I was filled with questions. Didn't she know about my relationship with Yan Jinyue?

We don't have love at all!

Seeing the maiden's serious expression, Xia Zheng immediately waved his hand and said, "Lady Maiden! Please don't misunderstand! I only have admiration and respect for my master, and I have no other intentions whatsoever. Please understand, Lady Maiden!"
