Chapter 59: Exorcism
"Madam, the little sixth son is lost." The personal maid Lianxiu said to Mrs. Wen.
Mrs. Wen's eyes were cold, and the hand holding the tea bowl was a little harder.
"However, according to the shopkeeper Xu of the Xu family's gold store, the seventh lady has already paid back the money, where did she get such a large amount of money?" Lianxiu continued, her face full of suspicion.
When Mrs. Wen heard this, the expression on her face relaxed a little, she took a sip of tea slowly, hooked the corners of her mouth and said, "If she can't do it, then won't it waste my hard work." ”
"That's what Madame said." Lianxiu said.
Wen Jiuniang walked in and instructed Ming Yin to bring the snacks in her hand to Mrs. Wen.
"It is said that yesterday, the Ningguo Mansion sent a matchmaker to the Anyuan Marquis Mansion to propose marriage, and I don't know which prince Lu Dao proposed to him." Lianxiu continued.
"Oh! There is such a thing" Mrs. Wen's eyes wandered, and she kept turning the Buddha bead bracelet in her hand, turning faster and faster.
Wen Jiuniang glanced at Mrs. Wen and opened her mouth slightly, but finally did not speak.
The year before last, the Ningguo Mansion used to belong to Wen Qiniang, because Wen Qiran was a second-class member of the court, but more because Wen Qiniang's mother was originally the Chu family in Luoyang, and the Chu family was a hairpin family, and there were many high-ranking officials, Wen Zhi was the first assistant of the cabinet, Wu Zhi was the governor of the capital, and the Wen family was also very satisfied with this family affair, but later because of Wen Qi Niang's reputation, Ning Guo Gong did not want to offend the Wen family, so he wanted to marry Jiu Niang instead of Qi Niang, but it was not a wife, but a concubine.
This also made Mrs. Wen entangled for a long time, and she was unwilling to think that her daughter was also a concubine when she married into the Wen family. But he was reluctant to let Ning Guogong this piece of fat meat, and thought about it for a long time. Before he could make a decision, Wen Qiran was demoted. This family affair is over again, which is also the reason why Wen Qiran doesn't want to see Ji Changge, twice in a row, no one can hang it on their faces.
And when Wen Jiuniang learned that she could marry Ji Changge, her joy was indescribable, even if she was a concubine, she admitted it, just ask which girl in the capital is unwilling to marry the first beautiful man, Ning Xiaogong?
It's a pity that the Geng post has not been exchanged, and with a thunderbolt on a sunny day, Wen Qiran was relegated to a small town in the south of the Yangtze River that he had never heard of as a county magistrate. Wen Jiuniang's heart fell into the abyss at once, she knew that even if she was a concubine, in addition to Qi Niang's matter, it was also because she had a virtuous reason, how many celebrities cried and rushed to marry into Ning Guogong's mansion, she didn't have any capital to show off, and now she didn't even think about it, and Ning Guogong didn't mention it anymore since then.
"I'll go to your aunt tomorrow to inquire." Mrs. Wen looked at her daughter and said, how could Wen Jiuniang's little caution be hidden from her eyes.
"Mother" Wen Jiuniang blushed slightly. But for Ji Changge, she couldn't take care of it much, thinking that she could become a husband and wife with Ji Changge, she felt that her chest was stuffed with something. I can't help but want to yell.
Mrs. Wen sighed, this was not a difficult thing before, but now Wen Qiran has returned to the capital. But it's just a five-grade rite Langzhong, and she heard about it a few months ago. Shuntianfu Yin wants to marry his granddaughter to Ji Changge as a concubine, but Shuntianfu Yin is the third product. I heard that the girl was only thinking about Ji Changge, and she would rather be a concubine than marry her, but Lord Yin couldn't help it, so she asked someone to explore the situation, but there are many theories about the results circulating in the market, and I don't know which is true and which is false.
Seeing her mother like that, Wen Jiuniang gritted her teeth, and thought resentfully in her heart, if her father hadn't been demoted, she would have married a long time ago.
"Madam, go and take a look, Brother Ten doesn't know what's wrong with Lu Dao, and suddenly says it's uncomfortable." Mother He hurriedly walked in.
When Mrs. Wen heard this, she hurriedly followed Mother He out of Lu, and Wen Jiuniang also followed out of Lu.
"Mother, I'm so uncomfortable, so cold." Wen Juro's upper and lower teeth rattled as he spoke.
Mrs. Wen touched Wen Shilang's forehead, it was so hot!
"Did you invite Langzhong?" Mrs. Wen asked.
"Please." He Ma said.
Looking at her son Shiro, Mrs. Wen rolled her eyes as if she had thought of something.
After a while, Lang Zhong hurriedly came, checked the pulse of the tenth brother, and then said: "It's okay, it's just a little cold, just take this medicine to get rid of the cold." ”
Mrs. Wen relieved her heart and asked Mama He to take the consultation fee to Lang Zhong and send it away.
Back in the main house, Mrs. Wen whispered a few words to Lianxiu, who nodded and walked out
In the evening, Wen Jing heard that Wen Shilang was in poor health, so he hurried over, and when he arrived at the door of Shilang's house, he did not find Lang Zhong, but there was a Taoist aunt inside, and Mrs. Wen and the little ladies He Ma and others were also standing at the door.
The Dao Gu didn't look very old, but she was in her early twenties, wearing a Dao Gu robe, holding a peachwood sword in her right hand and a few pieces of rune paper in her left hand.
"Qi Niang, come here, don't delay the fairy aunt to exorcise evil spirits." Mrs. Wen beckoned.
"Mother, what is this?" Wen Jing asked.
"Shhhh Mrs. Wen gestured.
Although Wen Jing disdained this superstitious practice in his heart, he had to stand aside silently and watch the Dao Gu make all kinds of strange movements.
Dao Gu burned the talisman paper, and the fire in the room flashed, making a clanging sound.
After doing everything, Dao Gu wiped the sweat from her forehead and sighed.
"Fairy Gu, can you get rid of it?" Mrs. Wen asked nervously, looking at this aunt's appearance, as if she had failed.
"There are indeed monsters in the house, but the distance is too far, and they can't be expelled for a while." That Dao Gu shook her head and said.
Everyone let out an exclamation, especially Wen Wuniang, the person who usually talks the most, was so frightened that she couldn't say a word at the moment.
"How can there be a monster in our house, pretending to be a ghost and trying to cheat money." Wen Banniang muttered quietly.
Mrs. Wen turned around and glared at Wen Banniang, just talk too much.
"Fairy Gu, may I ask what this monster is?" Mrs. Wen turned to Dao Gudao.
Na Dao Gu said: "It's still uncertain, I'm afraid it was brought into the house from the outside, and the monsters were the easiest to invade the children's bodies, and the tenth brother was the youngest in the house." ”
Mrs. Wen was shocked, Wen Shilang was her only son, even if she didn't like him very much, but it was related to the rest of her life.
"According to Aunt Dao, what should I do?"
"I first have to find out where the monster is lodged before I can completely exorcise it, as long as I am in this mansion, I will definitely be able to find out." Dao Gu raised the peachwood sword in her hand.
"According to the meaning of the fairy girl, do you want to search all the houses?" Mrs. Wen was slightly surprised.
"If the donor finds it inconvenient, just leave it." After saying that, the Dao Gu began to pack up her things and was about to leave.
Mrs. Wen looked at Wen Shilang and hurriedly said, "Immortal Gu is angry, according to Immortal Gu, there is Lao Immortal Gu." ”
"Let's get started." That Dao Gu picked up the peachwood sword again.
"Mother He, Mother Gu, and a few of you all follow the fairy girl, search for me carefully, have you heard it?" Mrs. Wen said to a few people.
"Yes, ma'am!" A few old women replied loudly, as if they had some good errand to shine on the lintel, and they followed behind Aunt Dao with their heads held high like roosters.
Several little ladies looked at each other, and they all went back to their houses, waiting for Dao Gu to come to search.
Wen Jing secretly thought to herself, it turned out that this was the real purpose of this farce, and hurriedly took Aoyagi back to her garden, she didn't expect Mrs. Wen to pay attention so quickly, and she didn't dare to come openly if she wanted to forgive her, but she changed her way and used her own son.
After searching the main house, nothing was found, so the Dao aunt went straight to Sanniang's house with a group of mothers-in-law, and Mrs. Wen instructed to start with the eldest Sanniang.
Wen Sanniang timidly watched as this group of strong women with tigers and bears on their backs under the command of Aunt Dao rummaged through the cabinet drawers, not even under the bedding, and their clothes and shoes flew all over for a while.
He Ma glanced at Wen Sanniang, yesterday she deliberately instructed the kitchen not to send food first, and then several little ladies except Wen Qiniang all sent rewards, as long as they can be used in the house, they have more or less got the rewards, Banniang and Jiuniang are the most, Wuniang is slightly inferior, Sanniang is the least, and the two money is not enough for each person to go out to buy a bowl of duck intestine noodles, which can't blame Sanniang, she doesn't have much money, and she can take out these, she has gritted her teeth.
So He Ma and the others didn't care about the importance of their hands and feet, and just blindly rummaged around, while Dao Gu pointed everywhere with a peachwood sword, concentrating on looking for "monsters".
"You guys take it lightly." Sanniang said with tears in her eyes, she has a weak temperament, and she will only shed tears when she is in a hurry.
Mama He looked at a few shabby pieces of jewelry in the makeup, and knew that this Wen Sanniang would not be able to get any oil and water in the future.
"Not here, who's next?" Dao Gu looked at He Ma Dao.
"Back to Xiangu, the next turn is the fifth lady."
"Lead the way."
Wen Sanniang looked at the backs of several mothers-in-law leaving, then looked at the house that was turned over and the dirty quilt that was stepped on, and cried again at the moment.
Wen Wuniang lived next door, she and Sanniang lived in a courtyard, separated by a wall in the middle, and saw that the old women were coming to this side violently, so they hurried back to the house.
"Qingshuang, are you all packed?"
Qingshuang nodded: "It's all cleaned up." ”
While speaking, Aunt Dao led He Ma and a few people in.
Because of the benefits gained yesterday, the hands and feet of He Ma and the others were naturally much "gentler", and the search time was much faster, which made Wen Wuniang breathe a sigh of relief, at least yesterday's silver was not in vain.
"Go to the next one." Dao Gu said to He Ma.
Mother He grinned, shook her eyes twice, and then stepped forward to lead the way, thinking of the things in the past few days, her eyes revealed a fierceness.
"Lady, they're here." Aoyagi walked in quickly.
"They will come." Wen Jing took a sip of tea and said lightly. (To be continued......)
