Spoiled by Eight Uncles (Lily) novel Chapter 745

It was a spooky midnight when she let her daughter get married; there were unknown crying sounds on the road; some wild cat was meowing. She was actually afraid back then, but the ceremony went smoothly, and her daughter ended up a slave in that family. But she did not care about her because she felt that her daughter belonged to their family now; it was her fate to marry into that family. She ran away with the bride price to a county seat, and she remarried. However, that man used her money too, so she had to expand her market.

But the outside world was different from the villages; they were law-abiding citizens, and the parents would not agree to let their dead daughter marry a dead man. “Although things were getting rough, I earned so much more by just completing a job.” The ghost matchmaker continued to say, “Sometimes, the rich people were even more superstitious.” She accepted a very big offer for her last job. She could earn hundreds of thousands of dollars, excluding the bride’s price. Her client had stricter requirements back to them: they wanted a dead woman who was a virgin, single, of the same age as their dead son, and had graduated from college. She searched for a very long time until she found the suitable candidate, but the dead girl’s parents chased her out with a steel stick.

She was unwilling to give up hundreds of thousands of dollars; she wanted to complete her last job and retire since she was getting old. So… She secretly dug out the girl’s ashes. “There were a lot of people doing this in our field. It was hard to find a suitable candidate. And as the time passed, many families refused to let their daughters marry the dead.” So, it was common for the ghost matchmakers to steal the corpses, but many of them managed to run away, leaving the families crying behind.

The weakling spirit snorted, “You guys are immoral!”

She answered, “How is this immoral? We’re finding partners for the dead. She continued to say, “Death is worth nothing. So why don’t we earn from it?”

Lilly’s heart ached after hearing her words! She bit her blanket hard. Pablo patted her back and asked, “Were you beaten to death?”

She nodded and answered, “Yes, that girl’s family beat me to death. And they crucified me on her grave to pay for my sin.” Her new husband only cared about her money, so he did not look for her after her disappearance. And her daughter, her first husband, and his family would never look for her either. So, her body was left on the grave, exposed to the extreme weather. The beasts that passed by would bite her bones away. Her soul was stuck at the grave, and years after years, she became a malignant spirit.
