The boss is back and she doesn’t pretend to be a fake daughter anymore

The resentment that was rising into the sky was knocked back after hitting Chu Beihe's golden barrier.

The scattered resentment flowed through the barrier.

The tangible resentment made all the members of the Ninth Clan in the ancestral hall stunned.

The resentment seemed to turn into substance, wailing in pain within the barrier.

This movement also alerted the women of the Ninth Clan who were originally blocking the way outside.

Taking advantage of the moment when they were distracted, Fang Wei quickly rushed into the ancestral hall.

The women or unmarried girls of the Ninth Clan tried to stop them when they saw this, but they stopped abruptly before reaching the threshold of the second gate.

Can't go in anymore.

Further in is the main hall of the clan temple, a place that women like them are absolutely not allowed to enter.

Even when they ran through the first door, they had already violated the taboo.

The group was hesitating whether to leave when they heard a cry of surprise.

"What's inside?!"

Through the screen wall of the second gate, the women vaguely saw the scene inside the main shrine. Subconsciously, some people stepped over the threshold of the second gate and walked in.

After the first one, there was the second one. When everyone walked around the screen wall and saw the scene inside the main shrine, they were all shocked in an instant.

When the Ninth Patriarch saw the newcomer, his already serious face was filled with anger.

"Who allowed you to enter the ancestral hall?!"

And that Fang Wei, she actually just barged in.

But all the tribesmen were knocked down by the strange turtle and the little paper man, and no one stopped her!

Fang Wei didn't know what was happening to her.

From the moment she stepped into the Ninth Village, it seemed as if something was attracting her invisibly.

That was a sense of belonging that she felt from the Ninth Liancheng.

It made her want to get closer to him.

But vaguely, this sense of belonging was denied by her.

It's more like a sense of fate.

And it is an inescapable fate.

Although the scene before her eyes was horrifying, ever since she stepped into the ancestral hall and looked at the black resentment howling in pain in the barrier, her tears began to flow uncontrollably.

Jiang Xuxu obviously also noticed her and the women on the other side of the screen wall.

She was not in a hurry to deal with the resentment running through the barrier, because she knew that it would not harm her.

Turning around, she faced Fang Wei and the women from the Ninth Clan.

Some of them are young, some are old, but everyone's luck is drained away bit by bit when they marry into the Ninth Village.

She looked at them for a long while, and finally spoke slowly.

"Seven hundred years ago, the Ninth Clan was granted a memorial archway of [Stay Chaste and Loyal] by Emperor Sheng because of the loyalty of Fang, the wife of the young patriarch.

The members of the Ninth Clan were proud of this and regarded Fang as a role model for women in the clan.

In the following years, all newly widowed women in the clan were not allowed to remarry or leave the clan..."

In that dynasty, people's customs were relatively open, and the imperial court did not strictly forbid women to divorce and remarry.

But because Fang was the ninth virtuous woman, she was awarded the chastity arch by the court.

The elders of the Ninth Clan ordered that all women, whether they married into the clan or were originally from the clan, were not allowed to divorce or remarry.

Even if the husband's family is cruel, the husband is infertile, and the mother-in-law treats her harshly.

In short, you must keep your chastity.

We should take Fang as an example.

The Ninth Clan was considered powerful at the time, but because of this chastity arch, the original daughter who married out was not able to receive protection from the clan.

Instead, the clan became a death warrant that crushed them.

Some died of depression, while others were imprisoned in ancestral temples and watched every day, and died with a resentment in their heart.

Or, you may live like a walking corpse all your life, in torture and misery.

Especially for women who married into the Ninth Clan, even if their parents’ family stepped in, the clan members would not give in at all.

The tribesmen even built a special place near the archway.

Anyone who wanted to divorce and remarry would be forcibly locked up in a small room, forced to look at the archway in the distance and reflect on themselves every day.

Because Fang had a deep affection for the young patriarch since their youth, she had no regrets even though she was a widow.

Even when the imperial court erected a chastity arch in her honor, she still felt a hint of pride in her heart.

However, such pride completely collapsed when she saw the women in the tribe being oppressed one by one because of her memorial archway.

She lived her life without children, but she never regretted it.

She sticks to her duties, remains a widow and never regrets it.

But when she saw the women and girls in her tribe who were persecuted because of her, she felt overwhelmed with remorse.

In order to correct this mistake, Fang made a surprising decision when she was 59 years old.

She wants to leave the clan and remarry.

Not for himself, but to give the women in the tribe a way out.

Even if this action would anger the king, he would not hesitate to take back the archway.

But before her action could reach the king's ears, the members of the Ninth Tribe were the first to be angered by her.

They didn't understand why an old lady who had been chaste for many years would become so confused and do something that would destroy her reputation.

Just crazy!

Fang's decision was naturally met with anger and suppression from the entire family.

Even though she was prepared to pay the price of eternal damnation, she still couldn't escape the suppression of her tribe.

In the end, she could only crash to death in front of the stone pillar of the chastity arch.

“Fang thought that even if they couldn’t destroy the chastity arch, as long as it was tainted, the women in the clan might have a glimmer of hope in the future.

But she greatly underestimated the paranoia and anger of the elders in the tribe."

When Jiang Xuxu said this, he looked at Fang Wei, who was crying uncontrollably, and told her everything that had happened to the stone plaque.

"The leader of the Ninth Clan at that time found an evil master who was good at Miao Gu curse. Out of resentment towards Fang, he had the evil master suppress Fang's corpse under the memorial archway and curse her soul.

After Fang's death, she will be reincarnated and will be able to marry into the ninth family for eternity."

When Jiang Xuxu said this, both Fang Wei and other tribesmen were shocked.

Except for the obviously older patriarch, and the other older elder.

This is a secret that has been passed down in the clan for many years.

Except for the patriarch and a few elders, no other members of the tribe knew about it.

And those elders who knew the truth and were responsible for the clan's inheritance also enjoyed more luck and blessings, unlike other people in the village who did not live beyond the age of sixty.

The Ninth Clan Leader had an unsightly expression on his face, but because he was stunned midway through summoning the Gu and even suffered a backlash, he was completely unable to stop the other party at this moment.

It would be fine if she only told Fang's secret, but he was afraid that she would tell other things.

But since Jiang Xuxu had said it, it was impossible for her to hide it from her other half.

She just looked at the women at the screen wall and said something else that shocked everyone.

"Fang's curse is not the end of all this, but another beginning."

she says,

"That evil master saw the paranoia and selfish nature of the Ninth Clan members and took the initiative to give them another way to ensure the prosperity of the clan."

That is to rebuild a ancestral hall at the original location of the archway.

That is the location of the ancestral hall where they are now.

"I set up an evil formation under the ancestral temple, with the suppressed Fang family as the center of the formation. I selected 18 chaste women and used their corpses as sacrifices. I planted the same curse on Fang family members, and used the resentment accumulated from their repeated reincarnations to transform it into luck to support the entire clan...

After that, every five years, a woman is chosen from the tribe to be sacrificed to maintain the formation."

When Jiang Xuxu said this, his almond-shaped eyes swept over the tribesmen in front of him, and he spoke the final truth in a cold voice.

"You said that women are not allowed to enter the ancestral hall, but the truth is that the bottom of this ancestral hall, with the stone plaque as the center, has long been covered with women's corpses."
