The story of the haunting became more and more popular, but there were always people who scoffed at it.

There were a few young people in the village who didn't believe it, so they formed a team and came in to have some fun.

Four people went in, and two of them started performing a series of falls and tumbles on the ground as soon as they entered the gate of the courtyard.

The other two were fine, but they fell several times as a result.

The four of them thought about the rumors about this house in the village, and the more they thought about it, the more panicked they became, so they ran out quickly.

If you have something to hide, the more you run the more likely you are to fall!

By the time the four of them got home, they had no idea how many times they had fallen, and their bodies were covered with wounds from being hit by stones.

That’s not all. After they returned, they were frightened and fell seriously ill. After they recovered, their health was worse than before, and their previous high spirits were no longer there.

After this incident spread, the people in the village firmly believed that the yard was haunted.

Lin Anru really didn't believe these things at all. If the dead had such great powers, what would be the place for the living people in this world?

"So that's how it is..." Liu sighed.

She didn't see many dead people, but not too few either. Her father was a doctor, and many of his patients could not be saved.

The low level of medical skills is one thing, but what is more important is that people do not take the disease seriously, and by the time they do take it seriously, it is already very serious.

"But this yard is too shabby..." Liu still didn't like it very much.

The reason she didn't like it in the first place wasn't because of the haunting.

"It's a bit shabby on the outside, but it would be nice if we spruced it up. Do you want to go in and take a look?" Lin Anru said as he stepped inside.

Liu followed behind him, holding her frightened son's hand by her right hand.

As for the daughter, she had already walked in side by side with her father.

Lin Anru cleared the weeds in the yard to create a path that could be passed through.

As soon as Lin Shiyu entered, she felt that the yard was really big, even bigger than the Lin family’s.

"There are too many weeds in the yard, let's go directly to see the house." Lin Anru held her daughter's hand to prevent her from tripping.

The front door of the house had already been badly damaged, so the group walked in without even having to push the door.

The room was completely empty, without even a decent piece of furniture.

"Something happened in their family, and some people in the village took all their valuables home to use. So when we moved in, we had to buy a lot of things," Lin Anru explained.

Once the hunter died, the pillar of the family was gone, and the family became a place where everyone could bully them.

From tables and chairs to pots and pans, and even firewood, everything that was valuable and could be used at home was taken away by the villagers.

Those who have more shamelessness will just say that it is borrowed, but everyone knows that it is borrowed and cannot be returned. The shameless ones will just come in and grab it.

After the hunter's mother died, the villagers knew that the hunter's child was not their biological child, so they moved the bed back home.

However, Lin Anru did not tell his wife and children about these dirty things.

After hearing this, Liu didn't feel it was a pity. If she really moved in, it would be more comfortable to use her own things.

She would feel somewhat uncomfortable using other people's things, especially those of deceased people.

"The roof is actually made of tiles!" After looking around, Liu looked up and exclaimed.

After hearing her words, Lin Shiyu and Lin Boyu looked up at the roof, and it was indeed made of tiles.

The door they entered the yard from should be the kitchen, and its roof was a thatched house. But who would have thought that the main house would be covered with tiles? It was such a big surprise, and Liu thought this house was nice.

She hated the thatched hut that leaked when it rained.

"Why don't the villagers come in to grab such good tiles?" Liu asked puzzledly.

"Later, the villagers thought it was unlucky, so they kept it." Lin Anru said lightly.

Rumors of hauntings spread too quickly, otherwise the straw in this house wouldn't be here.

After a young man from the village broke in and fell ill, the family that robbed the house would either throw away or burn the things that the family had taken away as long as they still had them in their house.

"Is that so?" Liu was a little tempted when she saw the tiled roof.

But she felt that things were not just as her husband said.

She wanted to ask more, but out of consideration for the two children around her, she did not speak up. Instead, she planned to find time to talk to her husband again.

"The advantage here is not only that the roof is covered with tiles, there is also a well in front of the yard. It's just that the weeds are too tall now and you can't see it." Lin Anru said, pointing in the direction of the yard.

What he cared more about was this well.

The village is close to the river, and all the water for eating and drinking is there. No matter how far away people live in the village, they can reach the river by walking a little further.

Therefore, the issue of the well is not a very important thing in the villagers' hearts.

But it does make things a lot more convenient for their small family.

Since he no longer has to fetch water for the house every day, he can free up more time to do other things, and his wife no longer has to run back and forth every day to do laundry.

Liu had obviously thought of this as well. She had been a little tempted at first, but now she had no objection at all: "That's great."

"Do you two like it?" Seeing that his wife had no objection, Lin Anru lowered his head and asked his two children.

Lin Boyu looked up at his father, then at his mother. He was still a little scared, but his mother seemed to like him very much. He asked if his mother would be unhappy if he didn't like him.

While he was frowning and struggling, Lin Shiyu let go of Lin Anru's hand and ran directly to the front room and shouted to them: "I want to live in this room!"

They just looked at all the rooms, there are five rooms in total.

In one of the rooms, two walls were empty, probably left there by hunters to hang prey or furs, and it was obviously not suitable for human habitation.

There are only three rooms left besides the master bedroom. Among the three, only the one where Lin Shiyu ran to has two windows, while the others only have one.

Although this room is a bit small, it has two windows for lots of light!

The houses here are not the elegant courtyard houses she has seen on modern TV. The houses here are more like the houses in poor mountainous areas in documentaries.

The room is small and dark, and there is no glass for lighting, so we can only rely on sunlight, so windows are particularly important.

"Then I'll take this one."

Seeing that his sister had booked a room, Lin Boyu didn't bother to think about it and quickly picked a room next to Lin Shiyu.

"Isn't that room bigger? Are you two sure you want these two rooms?" Liu asked, pointing to the room next to the master bedroom.

There are four rooms, three of which are for living, and the remaining one is for storing food and sundries.

As for rooms, of course a bigger one is more comfortable to live in.

Lin Shiyu said firmly: "I want this one."

Lin Boyu also replied: "Me too, me too!"

"Okay!" Liu stopped persuading her. The room was there anyway and she could change it anytime she wanted.

"Since you all like it, I will go to the village chief to reserve this place later." Lin Anru said.
