Reincarnation: My Possessive Beast Husband

Chapter 35: Chapter 35 Several Young Women Died in the Town
 

On the main streets now, guards were patrolling everywhere, even at night.

Furthermore, among the pedestrians, there were almost no young girls remaining, only the older women.

“Wuu wuu… my poor daughter… how could you die so miserably… wuu wuu… You’ve left your mother all alone in this world, how am I supposed to live on… wuu wuu…”

“Cuixing’s mother, don’t be too heartbroken. The dead cannot be revived; you should restrain your grief.”

“I had only Cuixing as my child, and now that she’s dead, how am I supposed to bear this… wuu wuu…”

“Let’s go take a look,” Chu Yuxiao said to Su Yan.

Su Yan did not refuse. She dismounted and walked between two women, showing a friendly smile and asked,

“Ma’am, what happened, why are you crying so sadly?”

The woman sitting on the steps glanced at her and didn’t reply, instead bursting into louder cries.

It was the woman standing beside her who comforted her and spoke to them,

“Young master, don’t you know? Recently, several girls have died in the city.”

“Is this lady’s daughter also among the deceased?”

“Yes. Cuixing was such a good girl, carrying the heavy burden of her whole family. By day, she had to work in the embroidery room, and by night, she washed dishes at the inn. Who knew that when she came back the night before last, something would happen…”

The night before last was the third victim.

“Mother,” at this time, a girl dressed in coarse clothes ran over.

The standing woman saw her and hastily pulled her, saying,

“Child, why did you run out here! Hurry back inside, do you hear me!”

“Mother, I wanted to come and see sister Cuixing,” the girl with red eyes said.

“Child, do you realize how dangerous it is outside? You can see your sister Cuixing another time. Listen to me, go back quickly, don’t make mother worry.”

The girl did not move; instead, she looked at the sitting woman and walked over to crouch down and said,

“Auntie, don’t be too sad. Now that sister Cuixing is gone, I’ll take care of you in her place.”

“Wuu wuu… my poor daughter…” Hearing this, the woman cried even more bitterly.

“Auntie, I’ll come and keep the vigil with you tonight. Sister Cuixing was very good to me, I should see her off on her last journey.”
