Chapter 208: Ghost Wife
It was the time to unlock and open the door, and the lights were lit in all the courtyards, and the people were afraid of waking up the master, so they relaxed their hands and feet, whispered, and moved around like ghosts.
The mother-in-law of the gatehouse of Ge Tan Yuan had eaten some wine last night, and she was lazy, and she got up strongly, but her sleepiness could not dissipate, and she shrank in her chair with her hands and yawned one after another.
Hearing a sonorous footsteps, he just thought it was a rough woman, so he scolded in confusion: "The soles of your feet are stepping on dung? Walking an earth-shattering way, can you afford to wake up your aunts? ”
After scolding, he heard the footsteps still, raised his eyes angrily, and saw Zhou Shu with a cold face, and the three souls trembled with fright, and the seven spirits were leisurely, rolling down from the chair and crawling out on his knees, "The second young master forgives the sin, the little one doesn't know that the second young master arrived, and he said the wrong thing."
The second young master has a lot of them, don't be like a villain......"
Zhou Shu glanced at her coldly, and then led a group of girls into the door.
The girls and mothers-in-law of Ge Tan Yuan were frightened by this battle, and hurriedly stopped their work, and knelt down to salute one after another.
Zhou Shu stepped into the Ge Tan Courtyard for the first time, and he couldn't tell which one was which, so he stood in the middle of the courtyard and briefly ordered: "Search!" ”
Yun Zheng replied "yes", and nodded a few times with his hand, "A few of you go here, a few of you go there, and the rest will come with me." ”
Lingruo slept soundly on the soft bed and warm tent, completely unaware that he was in trouble. was woken up by Mai Xiang and was quite impatient, and reprimanded him with a slap on his face: "It's not dawn yet, what are you telling me to get up?" You don't have to save the slut in the morning......"
Mai Xiang hurriedly covered her mouth. "Aunt Shenyan, the second young master is here."
"What?!" Ling Ruo tore her hand away and asked in surprise and joy, "This early in the morning, why did the second young master come?" Hurry up, give me a make-up ......"
Before Mai Xiang could remind her that the second young master was not here to meet her aunt, Yun Zheng led someone in. Through several curtains, he said a good fortune in a dignified manner, "Please Aunt Ling, Da'an, the slaves and maids are ordered to search." Disturbing places. I hope you will forgive me. ”
"Search?" Lingruo was taken aback, "Search ...... What to search? ”
Yun Zheng said hello, did his best to do his best, and did not answer. waved to the girl behind her. "Let's spread out and search. Be careful, don't break Aunt Ling's things. ”
Everyone agreed in unison, and looked around neatly.
Lingruo realizes that something is wrong. A cold sweat immediately broke out on his forehead. Holding Mai Xiang's arm and getting out of bed, he forced a calm smile on his face: "What's wrong?" Well-behaved, why did you suddenly find my house? ”
Yun Zheng smiled and said, "Aunt Ling doesn't need to panic, let's leave after searching." ”
This was an ordinary sentence, but it had no meaning to Lingruo's ears, and he couldn't help but be angry, "Although I sit upright and am not afraid of searching, you have to tell me what to search, right?"
You're searching like this, and you're too blind, right? ”
"Sister Yunzheng, come and take a look." A second-class girl suddenly shouted.
Ling Ruo followed the prestige, only to see a calligraphy and painting hanging on the wall was opened by a little girl, revealing the Buddhist shrine below, and couldn't help but be shocked. I didn't care about the prestige of the shelf, so I pulled my legs and rushed over.
Yun Zheng had already taken precautions, and pointed to the two mothers-in-law nearby and ordered: "Take good care of Aunt Ling, this is so busy, don't let Aunt Ling bump into it." ”
The two mothers-in-law understood and stepped forward to stop Lingruo.
Lingruo was anxious and angry, "Get out of the way for me, and don't touch my things with your dirty hands." ”
Yun Zheng ignored her, turned around, and went to the door, "Second Young Master, something suspicious has been found in Aunt Ling's house, please come in and take a look." ”
Zhou Shu nodded and led Mama Zhang into the door.
Hearing the words "Second Young Master", Ling Ruo felt like he was being choked by the neck, and his voice stopped abruptly. When he saw Zhou Shu's figure, he became more and more frightened, and his legs trembled involuntarily.
I thought in my heart that not many people recognized the thing she worshipped, as long as she insisted that she was a good Bodhisattva, no one would have to help her. Forced himself to press the flustered heartbeat, piled up a dry smiling face, and greeted him with blessings, "The concubine has seen ......"
Zhou Shu ignored her, and was led by the cloud zither to see the Buddhist shrine under the calligraphy and painting. I saw a half-foot-high statue inside, describing it as hideous, with teeth and claws, like a man rather than a woman.
In front of the statue was a plate of snacks, a plate of fruit, and a white porcelain wine glass, which contained a puddle of light red like blood.
Just by seeing this cup of things, you know that the offering is not a serious bodhisattva.
Mother Zhang glanced at it and couldn't help but exclaim, "Isn't this a ghost mother-in-law?" ”
Lingruo didn't expect Mama Zhang to recognize this thing, and the blood on her face faded in an instant.
Zhou Shu heard about this thing for the first time, frowned and asked, "What is that?" ”
"It is a kind of evil ghost, which is transformed by the ghost of a pregnant woman who died in a previous life, and is specially attached to a pregnant woman, sucking the essence of the fetus, especially like to nibble on the male fetus." After Mama Zhang explained in one breath, she showed a look of sudden realization, "It's no wonder." ”
No wonder, Zhou Shu, Yunzheng and others all understood that only Lingruo didn't know why, and they were still anxiously thinking about how to cover up this matter. Seeing Zhou Shu's eyes swept over coldly, he hurriedly said: "Second young master, that's not a ghost mother-in-law, it's just a concubine who has nothing to do to worship a Bodhisattva, and it is to bless mortals with peace and longevity......"
Zhou Shu didn't take this weird-looking statue seriously, but when she heard Zhang's mother say that this thing was possessed and sucked fetal essence, and she also liked to nibble on male fetuses, she thought about it to Jian Ying and the child, and couldn't help but be shocked.
Before seeing the ironclad evidence, Lingruo still wanted to deny the deception, and immediately became angry, "The heart is so vicious, it is really unforgivable." Come on, drive this concubine out of the palace, don't let such black-hearted people dirty the place of my palace. ”
Lingruo was so frightened that her soul was scattered, and she didn't know where to give birth to a brute force, pushed away her mother-in-law, rushed to Zhou Shu in three steps and two steps, knelt down with a "poof", and burst into tears, "Second young master, the concubine really doesn't know that the bodhisattva enshrined is such an ominous thing......"
Zhou Shu listened impatiently to her quibble, "Pull it out." ”
"Second Young Master." Lingruo was shocked and anxious, and rushed over to hug his legs, "Second Young Master, you can't drive me away." If you insist on driving me away, it is better to give me death. The concubine is your person in life, and your ghost in death......"
Zhou Shu disdained to beat women, only pulled out his legs hard, and sneered: "There is no shortage of people like you in this young master's life, and there is no shortage of ghosts like you in death." ”
After saying that, he didn't want to look at her more, so he turned around and walked out.
Seeing this, Lingruo was full of despair, and without waiting for her mother-in-law to pull her, she got up and hit her head on the corner of the table......
