Chapter 291 Story in the Book

"Let us live a carefree life as companions,
Ride horses and gallop, sharing the prosperity of the world,
Drink wine and sing, expressing the joy in our hearts,
Seize the youthful years with passion…………"

Bai Yingying walked inside, humming a song while holding a stack of books.

She really liked the *Princess Pearl* series and many Qing Dynasty dramas. The reason was simple: Qing Dynasty dramas were very relatable to Bai Yingying, after all, she was from that era.

"Wow, the villas here are so beautiful. After I deliver the books to the boss, I'll call that manager and ask him to buy me one here too."

Yingying muttered to herself while admiring the surrounding scenery.

She didn't even realize that,

She had already bought a house here,

And her boss,

Had already shamelessly moved in.

Of course,

For people with many properties,

It's normal to not remember where all their houses are, right?

"Oh, here it is, this one."

Bai Yingying stood outside the door, looking inside. She found that the yard was very dilapidated, overgrown with weeds. The owner must be very lazy or doesn't live here at all.

"It's you guys who buy houses and don't live in them that drive up the prices, making it so expensive for me to buy a house now!"

Bai Yingying complained dissatisfiedly.

She had her own burial goods,

Madam Bai also liked to collect antiques and calligraphy, so she had some too.

But no matter how much wealth you have, when facing the housing market, you will still feel like you are quickly being emptied.

Of course,

Bai Yingying, who only wanted to surpass Xu Qinglang in the number of houses she owned, didn't realize that

Her behavior of buying houses was also a form of speculation.

She pushed open the yard door, walked to the entrance, and Bai Yingying rang the doorbell.

Why would the boss be in this place and still ask me to deliver books?

"Click…………"

The door opened,

A woman was standing inside.

The woman was a little plump, not very tall, and wearing glasses.

"Please come in."

Without asking,

She directly let Bai Yingying in.

"Um…………"

Bai Yingying walked in and looked around,

Even beginning to wonder if she had come to the wrong place?

"You're here to find your man, right?" The woman asked while pouring tea.

"Yes, yes!"

Bai Yingying nodded like a chicken pecking rice.

My man,

This title,

I like it!

"He's over there. He said he was tired and wanted to lie down for a while."

Bai Yingying followed the direction the woman was pointing,

And saw Zhou Ze lying on the sofa,

The familiar boss,

The familiar Ge You slouch.

Bai Yingying immediately went over with the books.

Zhou Ze sat up straight and motioned for Bai Yingying to massage his shoulders.

Putting down the books,

Bai Yingying went behind the sofa and began to massage Zhou Ze's shoulders.

"Mommy, I'm hungry."

A little girl who looked like a porcelain doll ran over.

The woman squatted down,

Reaching out to stroke the girl's hair, she said:

"Good girl, go upstairs and find your brother. Your brother has a lot of snacks hidden there."

"Okay, Mommy!"

The little girl hopped upstairs.

In the living room,

There were only the woman, Bai Yingying, and Zhou Ze left.

"Boss, I brought the books."

Bai Yingying massaged Zhou Ze while speaking softly.

"Mm."

Zhou Ze nodded,

Seeming too lazy to talk, a little tired, just closing his eyes and enjoying the massage.

The woman came over, reached out and flipped through the stack of books, picked out one, and said:

"I've read this book, *The Glutton's Banquet*."

"Uh-huh." Bai Yingying remained noncommittal.

"It's about a man who is a murderous demon, and he has a habit of eating the people he kills.

He likes to kill women, and he has very high requirements for eating people. He likes to take out the bones of the victims and boil them into soup, and then slowly gnaw on their bones."

The woman narrated calmly,

"Interesting, this kind of book can actually be published."

The woman looked at Bai Yingying, smiled, and continued, "Girl, I have some other books here, would you like to read them?"

Bai Yingying shook her head, her whole mind seemed to be on the boss, unable to care about anything else.

The woman was a little disappointed,

Looked at the sky outside,

Said:

"It looks like it's going to rain."

Outside, it was already dark.

"Have you read this book, girl?"

The woman took out another book.

You're so annoying,

Showing off how much you read!

People have been lying in coffins for two hundred years,

And there's no wifi!

How would I have time to read!

Do you want me to recite *Biographies of Exemplary Women* for you?

Bai Yingying was very unhappy with this woman who was always putting on airs. Perhaps, it was a kind of instinctive alertness and defense against the fact that Zhou Ze was actually appearing in a woman's house with children.

The boss now has loli, original wives, and men,

Now he's expanding his tastes,

Developing a milf series?

Yingying suddenly felt a tightness in her chest,

So tired!

But the woman seemed to not care about Bai Yingying's reaction at all,

And continued:

"This book is called *Qian Nu Youhun* (Money Ghost), riding on the popularity of *A Chinese Ghost Story*.

It tells the story of the Qing Dynasty,

About a young lady from a wealthy family who falls in love with a scholar,

This kind of plot is probably tired of even by ancient people, not to mention modern people.

So the author designed a new direction for the story.

For example,

That poor scholar is actually an experienced playboy, who likes to wander among the young ladies of various families, specializing in deceiving the hearts of these little girls……"

Hearing this,

Bai Yingying's expression suddenly changed.

"Also, this matter later broke out, and the reason for the outbreak was very simple. The scholar wanted to steal her heart and body, but this young lady was unwilling. She only wanted to give herself away on the wedding night. In today's terms, she didn't agree with getting on the bus before buying the ticket.

She foolishly encouraged the scholar to study hard and pass the imperial examination.

As a result, the scholar was angry and publicized his affairs with her, and there was also the young lady's personal jade pendant as proof.

Heh,

Men,

They like to treat women as something to show off,

At the dinner table,

To brag about.

In fact, many women are also stupid, not knowing that for men,

Sleeping with someone is easy, but being with someone for a lifetime is very difficult;

After this incident was publicized, it brought huge disaster to the young lady, because the young lady was engaged, and the other party was the son of the governor. In addition, the young lady's family was strict with family education and emphasized etiquette. Her ancestors and fathers were all Taoist scholars, and they couldn't tolerate such things.

The young lady was drowned in a pig cage, and it was reported to the outside world that she died of illness."

Yingying's massaging fingers stopped, her face gloomy as she looked up at the woman who was still narrating.

"The story is not surprising here, it can only be regarded as a tragedy, but there are too many tragedies of this kind, which cannot attract attention."

The woman took a sip of tea and continued:

"The young lady died, and after her death, she became a ghost, but because of some chance, she avoided being arrested by the ghost messengers and stayed in the human world.

The reason she stayed was very simple, she wanted revenge.

She was a temple god, and she could have really become a temple god all the time, enjoying incense, and perhaps getting a stable official position in the future.

But she had been watching, waiting, and also retaliating. Her descendants were made by her to be scattered and depressed, and finally died without a good end, but she had been protecting their family's incense, so that she could retaliate generation after generation.

So,

Never anger a woman.

If you do ten thousand good things, but deliberately do one bad thing, it will ruin all your merits. Her temple body has been precarious, and later it was simply gone.

Even if she later saw it, ended her revenge, and went to hell, she still had a lot of anxiety in her heart.

She knew that she had accumulated a lot of merit,

But she didn't know if her merits could offset the evil she had done.

But she didn't regret it, not at all,

She loved openly at the beginning, and retaliated happily after death.

People often say that it is unfair to feel towards the rich second generation, that is because their parents worked hard.

So, don't blame yourself for being unlucky, that is because their parents created the karma."

Speaking of this, the woman stretched and continued to sigh:

"The story of this book also tells us that we should not always think about that kind of naive love, too naive love does not exist.

Of course, this kind of story of ancient talents and beauties rarely happens in reality.

Zhang Ailing or Lu Xun seems to have said:

If the man is not poor, and the woman is not ugly, the difference is just a drink;

If the man is poor, and the woman is ugly, the whole world are friends."

"Mommy, brother won't give me snacks."

The little girl shouted upstairs.

"Coming, coming, Mommy is coming."

The woman got up and walked up the stairs, her eloquent talk finally over.

In the living room,

There were only Zhou Ze and Bai Yingying left.

"Continue to massage, don't stop."

Zhou Ze pointed to his shoulder.

Bai Yingying nodded,

Reached out,

One hand grabbed Zhou Ze's neck,

The other hand grabbed Zhou Ze's shoulder,

Then exerted force,

Twisted,

Then tore,

Finally pulled!

"Click…………"

A fine head was taken off by Bai Yingying,

Holding the hair,

Held in her hand,

Like a seaweed,

Swaying in the wind.

The head was still opening its mouth, a little confused. The difference in treatment before and after was simply earth-shattering.

Bai Yingying glanced at him,

Said:

"I knew you were fake as soon as I came in,

You don't have the boss's scent on you."

"What is his scent?" The head in Bai Yingying's hand suddenly asked.

However,

This time, the voice coming from the head was not a man's voice,

But the voice of the woman who told the story before,

With a strong sense of incomprehension, and also a very strong desire for knowledge,

As a writer,

She hopes that the characters in her writing are as realistic as possible, as "lifelike" as possible, so that the works can be relatable to the readers.

Bai Yingying threw the man's head against the wall,

"Bang!"

Like a watermelon landing on the ground,

It exploded directly,

Eyeballs and ears rolled all over the ground.

Yingying clenched her fists with both hands and blocked them in front of her, shaking her body:

"How annoying,

Of course it's a manly scent,

Why ask people such embarrassing questions,

Weeping, weeping, weeping……"
