Chapter 1031 Hypocrite

"Did you starve to death too?" Lilly asked.

The Holy Mother Ghost sighed, "I was lucky and I survived." She then said, "My biggest regret was not

giving my parents a formal burial. Their bodies were merely covered with mats." She continued to say,

"I managed to get a teaching job through my parents’ connection later on." She survived on that job. At

least she could afford some food.

Josh felt strange, and he asked, "Then, did you continue to help the victims?" She said that she fought

for the food to survive so she could help out more victims. I’ll salute her if she really did it. But I don’t

think she did.

The ghost answered, "I was having a hard time, so I can’t help out more people."

Josh looked at her and said, "But didn’t you have a job?" He said, "Aren’t you kind? Why didn’t you use

half of your salary to save others?" She could have done it, but she had to suffer with others. And she

could have survived with one meal per day; she could have donated two meals to others. He was not

trying to force her, but he knew that she would not help when she was affected.

She stuttered, "I was in the city... and everywhere was dangerous. I could not go out." Josh sneered

and thought, It sounds like she’s holy, but she’s very selfish indeed. Everyone respected her for being

their savior, but she sacrificed her parents for it. Once she was poor and alone, she was not willing to

save people, realizing she herself was struggling. "How did you die?" Josh asked. He thought that she

died starving to save others. But it did not seem to be the case.

She continued to say, "Everything settled down, and the town was livelier after years." People around

her got married, and she was lonely, so she was finding her other half. "I was pretty famous for

spending all my fortune to save the people." She managed to get a good man by being famous. Her

husband was pretty dumb, because smart men would never marry her. She was someone who

sacrificed her family just to save others.

"I felt happy in my marriage. But my neighbor was a lonely woman." Hence, she started to play

matchmaker out of kindness. And she introduced her to a hawker. "I felt that this man was pretty Exclusive content from .

decent." Her neighbor thought that the man was a businessman, but he turned out to be a hawker. She

was not willing to be with him. But the ghost felt that he was a great man. She heard from him that he

was all alone after his family died from the drought. "No one looked after him when he was sick."

"There was a time he was beaten up by the gangsters... I went to take care of him."

The harem spirit asked, "Wasn’t your husband jealous?"

She answered, "No, I was just helping out." My husband even helped buy him medicine.

Lilly and Josh exchanged looks. "So, you thought that he was pitiful and introduced him to your

neighbor?" She looked regretful all of a sudden. Her neighbor did not accept the man, but she helped

him pursue her.

"One day, my neighbor was crying when she and that man came out of her house." She did not think

much and was happy for them. "I only found out that the man assaulted her... She had no choice but to

marry him." But the ghost did not tell them that the man threatened her neighbor with ruining her

reputation if she did not marry him. She did not want the others to think that she was bad at identifying

good people.

"They started to fight after they got married, after some time." And that hawker started to physically

abuse her neighbor. "She was terrified of being hit." She said, "And she asked for my help. But, what

could I do?" It was embarrassing to divorce back then. "So I tried to convince her to stay. There’s no

man that didn’t hit their wives."

"But she glared at me and asked me to give my husband to her!"
