I am called Laidi.

I have a lovely pair of twin sisters, named Big Sister and Little Sister.

One day, a fortune teller named Man Gu came to the village.

It was said that she had a method to bear sons, so people who wanted sons flocked to her.

But after Man Gu mentioned the conditions that needed to be met, everyone returned disappointed.

Except for my parents.

Man Gu came back with my parents.

They returned while I was playing with my sisters in the yard.

My grandparents were also there.

My parents warmly welcomed Man Gu in, and when she saw us in the yard, her eyes lit up instantly.

Perhaps thinking I was still young and naive, she talked openly in front of me.

Pointing at my sisters, Man Gu said, "In the whole village, only your family has twin sisters, how lucky! This shows that your family will not die out without a male heir!"

After hearing this, my parents exchanged smiles, feeling hopeful about having a son.

My grandparents were even more delighted!

My mother hurriedly asked, "Sister, please tell us how we can have a son. Look, I already have three daughters!"

My father also looked eagerly at Man Gu, wanting to know the answer.

After showing a bottle of potion to my parents, Man Gu mysteriously smiled and said, "Just need to apply this potion on a knife, cut the throats of the twin sisters, drink their blood, and the next child is guaranteed to be a son!"

As soon as Man Gu finished speaking, my mother screamed.

My father quickly covered her mouth, signaling her to be quiet.

After a while, my mother calmed down and said, "No, I can't do it! Even though they are daughters, I carried them for ten months, I can't do it!"

At this point, my grandfather spoke up, "If you can't do it, can you guarantee the next child will be a son?"

My grandmother was even angrier, "You've given birth to three 'losses' for our family, and you still dare not act? When you didn't know the method, there was nothing to say, but now that you know, why not do it immediately?"

After listening, Man Gu said impatiently, "Others want to do this but can't! Your family has ready-made twin sisters, and you're still not satisfied? Do you still want a son?"

At this point, my parents immediately said in unison, "Of course we do!"

Having had three daughters, they had been ridiculed for a long time.

As long as there was a glimmer of hope, they didn't want to give up.

I knew this.

But killing my sisters was something they had never considered; at most, they had thought about giving us away.

"Alright then, if you want it, bring ten thousand yuan, and I'll give you the potion," Man Gu said before sitting back, as if this method didn't involve taking lives.

My parents looked at each other, and my mother said, "Sister, look, we don't have money, can you make it cheaper? Besides, I've raised two daughters! When they grow up and get married, there will be dowries to pay!"

Seeing my mother bargaining, Man Gu became unhappy and directly said, "Then you can wait for them to grow up and get married!"

Then she got up to leave.

My grandparents immediately went to stop her.

My father quickly said, "We'll get the money, you give us the potion and teach us how to use it."

Watching all this, I looked at my two innocent sisters and shuddered.

They were even laughing at them.

But they didn't know my blood was almost frozen.

I wanted to leave with them immediately, but my legs felt like they were made of lead and couldn't move.
