Chapter 41 I Died So Miserably
While they were still cleaning happily, Shen Xiaoyu went to the kitchen, opened the smart refrigerator, and found half a quick-frozen chicken from the previously unlocked freezer area, which was still fresh before the expiration date.

She took it out and put it in a basket to defrost, then began to clean up the dusty stove.

The two pots in the kitchen and some kitchen utensils hanging in the corners were very dirty, but they were still usable after being washed and boiled with hot water.

Shen Xiaoyu decided to make roast chicken to fulfill his promise to his silly father.

As soon as she lit the firewood, Shen Xiaoli came in.

"Second sister, can I help you?"

"Okay, then you can help me wash the rice and cook it."

"Rice? Aren't you going to cook porridge?"

"Do you still want to eat porridge?" Shen Xiaoyu asked with a smile.I haven’t had enough gruel during my escape!

Shen Xiaoli grinned: "I want to eat too!"

When the smoke rose, Shen Xiaoyu heard someone outside calling her: "Miss Shen, open the door!"

"Who are you?" Shen Xiaoyu went out and saw a woman standing outside the fence.

"I'm Aunt Li. I live where I am. I'll bring you some vegetables. I grew them in my own vegetable field." Aunt Li pointed to the house diagonally opposite.

It turned out to be a neighbor. We had seen each other when we came in and out earlier, but we hadn’t said hello yet.

"Thank you, Mrs. Li, you are so polite!" Shen Xiaoyu saw that she was an easy person to get along with compared to that He Xiu and her eyebrows were kinder, so he took the basket.

"You girls, remember to close the doors and windows at night. If you need help, come and call us. We practice martial arts in Beihe!"

Shen Xiaoyu originally wanted to ask about the haunting of this house, but after thinking about it, he decided not to. He would naturally know what the situation was at night.

After thanking Aunt Li, Shen Xiaoyu returned to the kitchen and continued cooking.

The wood-fired chicken was crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, cut into small pieces, a pot of fragrant white rice, and a plate of fried vegetables given by the neighbor, and they finally had a decent meal.Shen Youfu finally got his wish and ate roast chicken, dancing with joy.

"Second sister, your spells are so powerful!" Shen Xiaoli sighed quietly.

Shen Xiaoyu put his finger on his lips to remind her to keep it secret.

Before we knew it, it got dark, and everyone was very tired, so they took a shower and went to bed.Shen Youfu slept in one room by himself, and the four sisters slept in the larger wing.

Shen Xiaoyu was used to keeping vigil all night, so he didn't fall asleep for a while. He wanted to keep an eye out to see if anyone came to cause trouble after midnight.

She hid the dagger on her body and waited, feeling sleepy.

In the middle of the night, she was woken up by a burst of crying. The crying was very eerie and desolate, and it was really creepy to hear it at night.

"Second sister, did you hear that? Someone is crying in the courtyard!" Shen Xiaoli and Shen Xiaotao were both woken up and huddled together in fear.

Shen Xiaoyu looked at his little sister, who was sleeping soundly and deeply without being woken up.

"Second sister, is there really a ghost?" Xiao Tao was so scared that she almost cried.

"There are no ghosts in this world, but there are a lot of shameless people. This cry must be faked by people. Don't be afraid, you may be fooled!" Shen Xiaoyu touched their heads and comforted them in a low voice.

Just cry twice to scare them away?It’s too childish!
"Want to go out and take a look?" Xiaoli was also scared, but she had been bolder and more curious than Xiaotao since she was a child. If the second sister went out, she would follow her.

"No, let's continue sleeping." Shen Xiaoyu held the dagger tightly and reassured them, ignoring them.

The cry floated closer from the courtyard, all the way to the bedroom window. While crying, he muttered: "I died so miserably~~~ Come and stay with me~~~"

After a while, there was the sound of bamboo poles tapping rhythmically on the window lattice.

Shen Xiaoyu stood up quietly and saw a human head with long hair reflected in the window.
