Chapter 88: Gossip
In an instant, the lady's voice stopped abruptly, and the whole person stood on the spot, motionless, and her whole face became stiff.
Hongchen nodded with satisfaction, led the son over, and walked to the county order.
"Okay, let's discuss now how to satisfy Shi Yun and the fetus in her womb."
The county commander nodded stunned, but he couldn't help but turn his head to look at his wife.
I saw his wife standing motionless on the ground, her expression was indescribably strange, and the hideous expression on her face had not yet receded, and she had become very frightened.
"What's wrong with her?"
"It's nothing, it's just that since your wife is so bold, just let her help do something, and it will save me a lot of effort."
After a while, the surrounding lonely ghosts still have to be blown away, it is not easy, and it is very troublesome to negotiate, so it is better to look at the disgusting mouth of Mrs. County Ling, can the ghosts and ghosts be so angry that they will automatically retreat.
Hongchen smiled and explained: "The Spirit Eye Talisman is harmless to the body, that is, people's eyes become similar to our eyes for a period of time. ”
The so-called spiritual talisman is to make people's eyes clear, but mortals cannot see, and naturally including ghosts.
However, this thing is cheap, and unlike the ghost lamp commonly used by those more noble spirit masters when doing things, using it, ghosts can be used in the eyes of people, but it is extremely distorted, showing that miserable original appearance, and sometimes it even has its own illusions, which makes people frightened, and spirit masters do not use it easily.
If you scare a big customer to death, you'll complete the task. Where do I get my salary? It is impossible to say that it is necessary to compensate for the loss.
Hongchen has no scruples.
"Mrs. Zun is so capable, she dares to quarrel with Shi Yun, and she also tosses other people's tombs, she must not mind arguing with other ghosts again!"
Xiang Fan: "......"
Hongchen really didn't care, just watched it leisurely.
For the first time in her life, the wife of the county magistrate felt horrified.
The mountains were full of spirits, and there was a hanged ghost hanging from the tree, with an old tongue, slurring and a face as thin as a skeleton. Lying under his feet was a disemboweled. Over and over. The ribcage grinned, revealing the heart, and the intestines and stomach were spread out disgustingly. On the left, a man with half of his head off was smirking and reaching out to touch her face.
This moment. She even wanted to pass out. I want to scream and run away. I want to do a lot of things, but I can't even move them.
The county magistrate's real name is Li Xiujuan, and she was just an ordinary squire's daughter. Living next to the Xiang family, the relationship between the two families is good, so that Li Xiujuan is the younger brother of a loser in the family, and the family is in the middle, and she can still marry Xiang Fan, who has a very good family.
Her life can be described as smooth sailing, when she was at home, her younger brother was a loser, and she was also very distressed by her sister, married, Xiang Fan grew up with her childhood sweetheart, even if she was uneducated and couldn't add fragrance to his red sleeves, Xiang Fan didn't find a beautiful woman to go home to block her, and then she had a good son, seeing that her life was going well, but it was the same as before, sending away the bad woman who seduced his son, how did she fall into such a field?
Li Xiujuan couldn't figure it out, her heart was full of anger, but at this moment she was standing at the foot of the gloomy mountain, looking back, her son couldn't see it, and all of her eyes were lonely souls and wild ghosts, her heart was weak and cold, her stomach was overturning, she wanted to spit it out, but she couldn't faint, she could only watch those things approach her step by step, closer and closer, closer and closer......
The last to appear was Shi Yun.
Li Xiujuan roared: "You ......"
Before the sentence was finished, Shi Yun's belly grinned, and a child crawled out of it, actually Yuxue was cute, looking at the facial features, she looked exactly like her son, so beautiful, with a smile on her face.
Li Xiujuan couldn't help but laugh along, in her life, the most proud thing is to have a good husband, a good son, if she has a grandson, the grandson must be so painful, the little baby will become a three- or five-year-old boy in a blink of an eye, even more naughty and lively, circling around her, the little appearance is very beautiful, like a son like ten out of ten, or even more sensible, can say witty things to make her happy, a grandmother, the heart of the people is numb.
The child grows up a little bit after a circle, and when he is twenty years old, he is the top student in high school, he is still the most filial grandmother.
She couldn't help but laugh out loud, she could really be blinded even if she died!
Suddenly, the heavens and the earth changed color, and a thick black fog appeared in mid-air, hideous and terrifying, devouring his grandson in one gulp.
"Grandson!"
Li Xiujuan was shocked, rushed over and hugged her grandson, only to see that her grandson was still smiling, not knowing anything, but her face gradually turned white, thin, and her flesh and bones were peeled off, revealing a lot of white bones.
She staggered back, trembling with fright, but the child was still filial to her, and stayed by her side, never leaving an inch.
"Grandmother, what's wrong with you? Why don't you want grandchildren? Look at me, I'm your precious grandson, look at my face, it doesn't look like my father. ”
Shaped like a skeleton, a skeleton, and still laughing.
Even, he held his father with one hand, the son of the county order family, and Li Xiujuan's baby son, and the two of them stood side by side, looking like intimacy.
"Don't!" Li Xiujuan collapsed, fell to the ground, and cried, "Wrong, I was wrong, spare me, Shi Yun, Shi girl, it's me bastard, it's me who is wrong, you let me go!" ”
Xiang Fan stood next to him, watching his wife run around inexplicably, disheveled, embarrassed, and dumbfounded.
His son Xiang Xiaolong was also frightened, he didn't know what to do at all, he just stood aside stupidly.
Still Hongchen calculated the time, walked over slowly, and took off the Mingmu talisman casually, the illusion disappeared suddenly, Li Xiujuan knelt on the ground, looked around blankly, Xiang Fan came to help her, and she also shuddered.
"I don't dare, I don't dare anymore, don't dare......"
Hongchen shrugged: "Okay, it seems that the sprinkling method is useless, we still have to come." ”
The three were disgusted and made a high-ranking person: "I'm tired of Miss Hongchen." ”
Looking at his expression, it was as if he was saying that such a trivial matter to appease the ghosts on all sides did not need him, a high monk, to come out. Send a little minion to do it.
Hongchen had no choice but to recite a few words of incantation against the terrifying gaze of countless lonely souls and wild ghosts around him. Drove away the wild ghosts and ghosts in all directions, not daring to approach.
Three Angers: "......"
He is still very tall on his face, but he smiled bitterly in his heart, fortunately he didn't want to show his hand, it was him, if he wanted to drive away so many ghosts who refused to be reincarnated, I am afraid that it would take three days and three nights, and people would be good, just a few popular spells. It's no different from what ordinary monks read. The effect is so remarkable.
That is, when he meets him who is broad-minded, if he changes to someone else, he has to find a way to pinch this little girl to death if he is not angry, so that she will become more annoying to the climate.
Don't say it's three angers. Xiang Fan and the others can also intuitively feel that the surrounding environment has changed. It's still eerie though. But that suffocating sense of terror quickly disappeared as Hongchen's mantra became weaker and weaker.
It's as if the moonlight is brighter.
The wind and water are scattered. There was a rustling sound next to it, some like footsteps, which should be very scary in such an environment, but because it was a distant sound, it was so reassuring.
After making the preparations in advance, Hongchen straightened his face and asked Xiang Xiaolong: "Are you sincere and want to admit your mistake and marry Shi Yun?" ”
"I am."
Xiang Xiaolong nodded, his eyes slightly red, "In this life, I can only give her a husband and wife status, I hope that I can compensate her in the next life, and I am willing to be a cow and a horse." ”
Hongchen went to see his parents again.
Needless to say, Xiang Fan had already thought about it, and after hesitating, he said: "From today onwards, Miss Shiyun will be the daughter-in-law of our Xiang family, and I will choose another auspicious day to move her bones into the ancestral grave of my Xiang family." ”
This is still the idea given by his teacher, since things are inevitable, then do it beautifully, so that anyone who knows the beginning and the end has to say that the Xiang family is benevolent and righteous enough, and Xiang Xiaolong can't say that his reputation will get better.
After all, a man with affection and righteousness is always liked.
Li Xiujuan was stunned, nodded in a daze, and was still deeply trapped in a terrifying hallucination and didn't come back to her senses, at this time she wanted her to cut her meat, and she was probably willing to cut it.
"Okay, then I'll ask Shi Yun, let's say okay first, ghosts and gods can't be bullied, and the sky can't be bullied, you get married under the witness of heaven, if there is a trace of insincerity, the marriage will not be established, and the time will ...... It's not a matter of dying a Xiang Xiaolong. ”
Xiang Xiaolong was very resolute and sighed: "Miss, please rest assured." ”
Xiang Fan hesitated and didn't say anything, he felt that he was very sincere at this time, of course, Hongchen mainly asked Xiang Xiaolong, and the other two were a little cautious and not serious.
Hongchen didn't put on a shelf, he directly took a pen and paper and asked Xiang Xiaolong to bleed, this one is also sincere, and he filled the inkstone as soon as he put it down.
The brush was stained with blood, wrote down the eight characters of the birth dates of the two people, threw them into the brazier, and Hongchen silently read: "The sky is the proof, Xiang Xiaolong sincerely marries Shi Yun, he is a husband and wife in this life, and he is a cow and a horse in the next life. ”
It's not just that simple, this kind of method is a method that every spirit master will, and it can be regarded as the same nature as swearing to the sky, but some spirit masters ask a hundred times, and the sky will not respond, and Hongchen is just going through the procedure.
But even she didn't expect it to succeed again.
After almost a short wait, the clouds in the sky suddenly cracked, and a red light fell in the middle of the night.
At first glance, I thought it was dawn.
The people around him all knelt down involuntarily, lowered their heads, the corners of Hongchen's mouth twitched, and he stumbled before continuing: "Shi Yunke, do you agree?" ”
At this moment, the soil on the grave shook, and after a while, a line of words was conjured - no need to make a horse for a cow, a marriage in this life could not be successful, and I would rather wait for the next life before the stone of three lives.
Xiang Fan suddenly breathed a sigh of relief.
Xiang Xiaolong cried loudly, and even Li Xiujuan had red eyes.
"Alright." Hongchen breathed a sigh of relief, he didn't expect it to be so smooth, the rest of the super ghost babies would be much easier, and he didn't have to stay in these barren mountains and mountains, just go back to Puji Temple.
The group was physically and mentally exhausted, and when they returned home, Hongchen rode his horse by himself, and Xiao Mo together, trotted all the way and disappeared.
Sanyi walked in front of Xiang Fan, and the treasure was solemn: "Amitabha, the donor is so blessed, I met a kind-hearted woman like Miss Hongchen." ”
Xiang Fan was stunned.
"If it weren't for Miss deliberately teasing Mrs. Ling and making Shi Yun's mother and son angry, I'm afraid that Ling Lang would be fine, and it would be difficult for your lady to escape."
Xiang Fan closed his eyes, remembering what his wife had done, and he was terrified, and he was even more grateful to Hongchen.
He didn't dare to complain at first, but he was somewhat uncomfortable. Whoever sees his wife being bullied by outsiders, he can't feel comfortable, but when Sanyi said this, he immediately felt that Hongchen was well-intentioned.
It's better to tease a little than to lose your life.
fooled the county magistrate, and the three sneered and went to sell it in front of Hongchen with a smile - after all, he was a local parent official, and he had a better impression of Hongchen, which was better than having mustard.
Hongchen glanced at him, but he still promised to copy a few scriptures for him, and he didn't know why this guy had such bright eyes. The scriptures in her arms can be found by him.
Scriptures and such things. Different people can copy it with different effects.
Hongchen contributed a few scriptures, and the matter of the superordinate ghost baby was handed over to the three angers, and the three angers entrusted the monk to the upside down.
Of course. Monk Chao is still very responsible. At least more responsible than his junior brother. Things are done properly. The county magistrate did not donate a lot of sesame oil money, and according to the idea of the monk, the donations received should be taken out to do good deeds. The problem is that since Sanyi began to manage the finances, he can't call the shots in this regard, as before, every year of famine, the disciples in the temple all eat bran and swallow vegetables, and there will never be a day, on the contrary, the temple is still very rich, otherwise Hongchen would not always want to get something and blackmail them.
August osmanthus fragrance.
Flower tea is now available in the teahouse, in fact, Hongchen also brewed some osmanthus wine, failed several times, and only succeeded recently, the wine is rich in aroma, clear in color, and it seems to be much better than other wines.
It's a pity that no one here in the teahouse can drink it.
At least Xue Xiaohou didn't come to the door, and the others were not so cheeky to go to people's backyards to beg for wine.
The weather is getting cooler, and the number of tea drinkers is increasing, and those idlers who don't want to read like to sit in the garden and gossip.
"Have you heard that the son-in-law of the county lord's family has married a person, and the living and the dead are married, and he is still the son-in-law of the county family, I really don't know what to think!"
"Don't spread the word." There is a bag to hear that he knows the whole story of this matter, in a place like Qi County, this kind of thing can't be hidden, the county lord simply didn't hide it, others saw that he was compensating other girls very seriously, and even his son was willing to give out to get married, and most people believed in the character of the county lord.
Of course, he has a good official reputation and prestige in Qi County, that is, there are one or two places worthy of criticism, and the people are willing to tolerate it.
Especially recently, the county magistrate has worked hard, just caught a batch of kidnappers, rescued many children and women, and the people who got the children back are grateful to Dade, and there is an endless stream of people who send him plaques, and his son's little affair is not a concern.
"Xiang Gongzi's character is good, if I have a daughter, I will recruit her a son-in-law with such a character, and I can rest assured after a hundred years."
"The county master's incident is old news, not new, to our Mu Ye, there are rumors that he has an illegitimate daughter...... I don't know if it's true or not. ”
It's big news, and a bunch of very boring guys are coming together to talk about it, and it's all about it.
Hongchen almost believed it.
Xue Gonggong sat on the side angrily, and poured a breath of bitter tea, the tea is actually not bitter at all, osmanthus tea, very sweet. The problem is that if you drink it in Grandpa Xue's mouth, it will be bitter if it is not bitter.
Hongchen thought, maybe she should get him some rose tea to drink, to relieve his liver and relieve depression.
"What am I bad about Xiao Mu? Hu Zheng's kid is not angry, the family business is given to him, that is the loser, in the future, my mess will not be all Xiao Mu's, he will also make money, isn't it good to live a peaceful life now? You have to go out and hang out! ”
Father-in-law Xue was depressed, "Hey, he and my family Qingqing have not been able to raise a child, I'm a little worried, the young age is not small, but I think about it, if it really doesn't work, when he is over forty and has no children, he will buy him a concubine, otherwise, when Wenwen and his family have children, give them one, and never let them be empty in the future, now it's good, I went outside to mess around, even the children were done, our family didn't know, Qingqing cried every day, crying so much that I was afraid that Wenwen would take a knife to chop him in two days." ”
"Ah Chen, as soon as I am an elder, it is not easy to persuade you, you are young, Xiao Mu respects you, and this matter is caused by you saving the child, why don't you help me ask, what charter does Xiao Mu have?"
Xue Gonggong sighed, "Although I am not happy, but our family is not unreasonable, the matter has happened, the child is innocent, if he wants to, let him take the child home, it is still a waste to raise it outside, besides, if it is raised outside, what will the child do in the future, I am afraid it is not good to allow a family." ”
“…… My father-in-law is kind-hearted. ”
Hongchen's throat was a little itchy, and he couldn't laugh or cry. She is an unmarried girl who is Yunying, and she was entrusted with this by her elders, I wonder if Father-in-law Xue is also so reckless in the palace?
However, as soon as she saw Father-in-law Xue's sad face, she responded, and it was really her who rescued the child, and also provoked such rights and wrongs, and it was natural to inquire and inquire.
This is not only in Qixian, but also famous in Jincheng. Mu Ye, who is especially good at business. It's been a lot of time these days.
As soon as Hongchen arrived, he couldn't help but pull his hair and wail: "Miss, ancestor, don't ask." Don't ask anything! I was wronged! ”
He was really wronged.
"How can I beg a little wife outside? Not really. ”
Hongchen glanced at him a few times. to the point where he doesn't feel like he's lying. Mu Ye has a plan in his heart, maybe he doesn't love his wife very much, at this time. Husband and wife live a life, and they don't love or don't love anything, and marriage is more for the family.
Mu Ye went from a family with nothing to let Xue Gonggong promote, did a big business, and became a man with a head and a face, for everything he has now, he will not mess around at will and destroy his life.
"Hey, forget it, I'll go back and explain it to my lady." He hung his head, remembering the rumors outside, in order not to catch fire in the backyard - "I can only be sorry." ”
It seems that Mu Ye didn't want to tell her, and Hongchen didn't ask, as long as his own family conflicts were resolved.
This master was irritable at first glance, she was not annoying, she didn't stay long before she left, and returned to Xue Gonggong by the way, and left these miscellaneous things behind.
A few days later, Lao Ginseng wandered around and gossiped to her.
Little Jasmine also leaned over, apparently equally curious.
Unexpectedly, what Hongchen heard turned out to be very similar to the romance novels she saw in the Yujue space.
The heroine is the person who gave birth to a baby girl, called Lele, surnamed Yue and Le, which is the woman Mu Ye liked when he was young.
Lele as the heroine, her life is really a bit of ups and downs, first of all, she is the cousin of the Li family in Jincheng, her parents died since she was a child, and she lived under the hermitage, and then she took the path of the female partner in romance novels, and was favored by her cousin, accepted as a concubine, but her cousin's grandmother was a powerful one, and she was forced to sign a deed, not even a concubine, she was a cheap concubine, and then she lost in the house fight, so that the grandmother of the main house sold it with her feet.
Then it was a big turn and became the protagonist treatment.
When he was sold, he met a nobleman, that is, His Royal Highness King Li, who had not been in Qixian County for a short time, and the nobleman didn't know what he liked about her, so he moved his heart of compassion, ransomed for her, and placed her in a small courtyard, but then the King Li forgot about her, turned around and went back to Beijing, leaving this one who lived a hard life for himself, and unfortunately found that he was actually pregnant with Liujia, and the child must be cousin's, but she was an abandoned woman, and she was a little careful to find King Li, how could she leave a sin seed?
If she hadn't been careless and didn't pay attention, she would have been pregnant for too long, and the fetus might hurt her body, so she wouldn't even ask for it.
Fortunately, she still has a friend of Mu Ye, so she contacted her old friend, and gave birth to a child, so she gave it to Mu Ye and asked him to help deal with it, as for whether to send it to other people's homes, or what, it was all Mu Ye's business.
Hongchen: "...... Old ginseng, are you plants very gossipy? ”
Lao Ginseng smiled: "We are not like you, we can walk around and do what we want, if we don't gossip again, wouldn't life be more difficult." ”
Well, it makes sense.
Hongchen shook his head, that Lele really looks like a character in a novel, but I don't know if she is the protagonist or a supporting role, if she is the protagonist, maybe she can really make her wish come true, if she is a supporting role, she may be struggling on the road to death.
She has heard gossip, this kind of thing happens every year, and it is not new at all, so that Mu Ye actually raises children for others.
That person who has made no profits and losses in business, but he is not a good stubble!
"Xiao Mo, Xiao Mo!"
After listening to the gossip, Hongchen looked at the time and was just about to go to class, when he heard Xue Baiqiao babbling into the door.
He hadn't been seen in a long time.
As soon as Hongchen turned around, he saw the little marquis rushing in proudly, and went straight to Xiao Mo, who was pouring tea for the guests, and grabbed his sleeve and shouted: "It's broken, I broke the Zhenlong chess game you played!" ”
Xiao Mo glanced at the chess game he was holding in his hand and smiled slightly.
Xue Baiqiao suddenly jumped up like a fried little fat cat: "What do you mean, what do you mean?" Look down on me? ”
“…… I didn't say anything. ”
"Your eyes are saying, saying that I didn't break it, hum, what if you invite foreign aid, you don't have a rule that you can't invite, anyway, from today onwards I will continue to come to eat, eat!" (To be continued......)
