229. [229] Cui Yuanwai

The days passed quickly, and in a blink of an eye, Wuwu and Jinchuan were both three years old, and Sisi was almost six years old.

In the past few years, the "charm and ghost" in the capital has gradually become famous in the rivers and lakes, and there is an endless stream of people who come to worship and seek to avoid disasters every day.

And in the past few years, the end of the dynasty can be regarded as a smooth wind. The two children of Xiao Wuwu and Xiao Jinchuan followed Sisi, and they even looked like little adults.

On this day, Ziyi was bored, so he entrusted the three children to Cui'er and Mr., and pulled Duanmu Kaoru out of the palace by himself. She heard that there was a new deal in the "Charm Spirit" today, which was said to be haunted by a wealthy family in Beijing.

Ziyi dragged Duanmu Xun, as the big shopkeeper of the "Charm and Spirit", and went to the house of the member in person.

As soon as I arrived at the gate of the wai house, I could feel a cold atmosphere.

Even during the day, the smell is still very strong.

It seems that there are really ghosts in this Yuanwai family.

Ziyi thought secretly.

This family surnamed Cui, who is in the cloth business in Beijing, has two wives and three suitable for the family. And the good friends in the flower building, I can't count how many people there are.

This Cui Yuanwai knew the name of "Charm and Spirit", but he didn't know that Ziyi and Duanmu Kaoru were the real masters. Just looked at the two people wearing masks, and saw that there was nothing unusual about the two, and couldn't help but beat the drum in the bottom of his heart, secretly wondering if it was this ghost who felt that the money he gave was less, so he sent two people who were not very powerful to come here to pretend.

You must know that the three masters in the Charm and Spirit, one has silver hair and gray eyes, one has blue hair and blue eyes, and one is usually a man with black hair and black eyes, but he is a man with red hair and red eyes when he really works hard.

"Why, you can't trust us?" Ziyi saw what Cui Yuanwai was thinking, and couldn't help but have a sneer on his face, it seemed that they had really stayed too long these days, and they were actually despised by a small outsider.

"No, how dare you." Although Cui Yuanwai muttered in his heart, he didn't dare to show it in front of people. After all, after so many years in the shopping mall, I still understand the truth that people can't look good.

What's more, if the two people in front of him really don't have any skills, then he just needs to go to the Charm Demon Monster again and ask the owner there to send him a more powerful person, he doesn't need to offend this place for a small guess in his heart.

"Hmph." Ziyi snorted disdainfully and strode into the house.

"I don't know when the two masters did it? Banish the evil spirits from my house? "Although it is early spring and the weather is not very hot, this Cui Yuanwai is already sweating profusely.

He followed Ziyi and Duanmu Kaoru around his entire house, only to find that their family was really annoying.

"Tell us exactly when this haunting began, and why?" Ziyi had already discovered that this resentment seemed to come from the woman.

In fact, she can guess without asking her that it must be the backyard of Cui Yuanwai who caught fire.

In this feudal antiquity, the most fashionable thing was that women were embarrassed by women.

I'm afraid that any concubine or a good friend outside this person will be killed by his two genuine wives, which will lead to resentment.

"This-haunting started a month ago, and I don't know why." Cui Yuanwai's eyes rolled slightly, and he replied with low eyebrows.

"Is itβ€”" Ziyi deliberately lengthened her voice.

In this world, there is no ghost that will haunt you for no reason.

Ghosts are not okay to eat enough and do not go to reincarnation, and deliberately stay in the world to harm living beings.

You must know that if she misses the opportunity to be reincarnated, she may be like this for the rest of her life, becoming a lonely ghost and wandering in this world. If you encounter the soul envoy of the underworld, you will have to go back and suffer.

Even if his fate can't be touched, if he encounters a resentful spirit that is more resentful than him, it is possible to be devoured and his soul will be scattered.

Therefore, unless there is a deep resentment hidden in the heart before death, or there is some extremely heavy obsession, after death, ordinary people will not turn into ghosts, let alone harm any stranger.

"This- I really don't know, I don't know. If you know, you don't need to invite the two of you. Cui Yuanwai frowned slightly, with a touch of sadness on his face.

He only paid people to get rid of the ghosts, not to hire them to find out his own family affairs.

"Well, if that's the case, then please forgive us for not being able to help. Cui Yuanwai paid the deposit, I will ask someone to return it to you in a while. Ziyi snorted coldly, turned around and pulled Duanmu Kaoru to leave.

What she hates the most is a man like Cui Yuanwai.

Not honest enough.

"You-" Cui Yuanwai saw that Ziyi was leaving, and hurriedly stretched out his hand to stop him, but he never wanted to touch Ziyi's arm, Duanmu Xun frowned in disgust, and slapped Cui Yuanwai away.

"Ahh Immediately fell on all sides, disgraced.

"If the outsiders don't trust us first, then there is absolutely no need for us to catch ghosts for the outsiders. Cui Yuanwai should invite another master. Ziyi said, skimming the man who was still lying on the ground, and walked out of the house without looking back.

"Slow down, two." Behind him, a woman's voice suddenly came, and when she turned around, she saw a woman in a goose yellow dress, about sixteen or seventeen years old, with a little powder, quite a bit of beauty.

"I didn't expect this Cui Yuanwai to look like a fat head and big ears, but his daughter was born well." Ziyi put her little head to Duanmu Kaoru's ear and whispered.

"Two, my lord has been tired of being tortured by that unjust soul recently, so he lost his body today, and I hope you will forgive your sins." The woman obviously heard the whispers of Ziyi and Duanmu Kaoru, but her face did not change, she stepped forward, bowed to the two of them, and continued: "If you have any questions, you can come and ask me, and please help us to subdue that ghost." ”

The purple clothes looked up and down at the woman in front of him.

No matter how you look at it, this woman doesn't look like she's in her early twenties, at most eighteen or nineteen years old, and Cui Yuanwai is obviously over forty years old. Although this old husband and young wife Ziyi have also seen it, but looking at the girl in front of her, she can't imagine why such a woman should be so unthinkable and marry such a man.

"You, you get back to me!" At this time, Cui Yuanwai had already gotten up from the ground, looked at the woman in front of him, her round face was flushed, and she scolded the woman loudly: "There is nothing for you here." ”

"Master," the woman was scolded by Cui Yuanwai in front of outsiders, her face was still the same, but she just called softly and continued: "Master, why are you doing this. If these two masters leave now, I am afraid that our entire Cui Mansion will have to pay for the lives of that resentful spirit. ”

The woman's words were neither humble nor arrogant, and she didn't seem to be afraid of Cui Yuanwai at all.

"You-you-" Cui Yuanwai was so angry that he couldn't speak for a while, but his fingers trembled and pointed at the woman in front of him.

"Come on, help the master back to the house, and go to the doctor immediately." Seeing Cui Yuanwai fainting, the woman did not panic, but calmly ordered her subordinates, and immediately bowed to Ziyi and Duanmu Xun Yingying again, and said: "Let the two of you laugh, and please come with me, the paper kite must know everything." ”

Ziyi looked at Duanmu Kaoru, turned back to the woman who called herself a paper kite, and nodded slightly. Intuition told her that this woman must have a story.

The subordinates quickly carried the Cui Yuanwai into a room, and Ziyi and Duanmu Kaoru followed the paper kite to another room.

This room is relatively remote and simple in the whole house, and the paper kite smiled at the two of them, and led the two into the house.

"I'm a little shabby here, please don't be surprised." Paper Kite walked to the table, poured a cup of hot tea for the two of them, and smiled shyly: "Tea is not a good tea, I don't know if you can enter the mouth of the two." ”

Ziyi symbolically took the teacup and took a sip, the tea leaves in the cup were finely broken, and at a glance, he knew that it was inferior tea. Ziyi didn't like to drink this kind of bitter tea, so he just took a sip, put the cup down, and went straight to the point: "Do you know the source of this ghost, why doesn't your master say it?" ”

"Yes." Paper Kite looked at the purple clothes, and a wry smile crossed her face: "Of course he didn't dare to say it, because the dead woman committed suicide after his forced [harmony] violence." How dare he say that if this matter is publicized, I am afraid that the ghost will be expelled, but the yamen will come to the door. ”

"Strong [harmonious] violence? Heh-I really didn't see it, but if something like this happened to the girl in that family, wouldn't her family pursue it? Ziyi asked with a habitual frown.

"Accountability? Hehe, for poor people like us who have no money and no power, what should we hold accountable? Besides, the rape of her daughter by being raped [harmoniously] is itself a matter of immorality and customs, and it is insulting to the faΓ§ade of the ancestors, how dare you publicize this kind of thing at will. ”

Ziyi heard what the paper kite said, she pursed her lips slightly, hesitated for a moment, but finally asked the question: "I don't know why the paper kite girl married this Cui Yuanwai?" ”

Hearing Ziyi's question, the paper kite bit her lower lip gently, her face turned slightly pale, and her body trembled slightly. Seeing the appearance of the paper kite, Ziyi probably knew that this paper kite must be unwilling.

"Don't hide it from the two, except for marrying this Cui Yuan, the paper kite is not voluntary. It's just that the daughter of a poor family has lost her chastity [harmony] and purity, but she has nowhere to reason, so she can only marry except die. The paper kite does not have the backbone of the cuilan, and the paper kite is afraid of death, so it lives so hard. ”

This paper kite was only a momentary gaffe, she tried to calm down, and when she spoke again, her voice was still faint, as if she was talking about someone else's business.

"Cuilan? You're saying - this dead woman is Tsui Lan? Ziyi didn't know how to comfort the woman in front of her, so she just turned around and glared at Duanmu Kaoru fiercely.

In this feudal ancient time, girls suffered losses, and they even humiliated their families.

Not only will the family not avenge their daughter, but they even feel that it is their blessing that their daughter can marry into a wealthy family. Even if the girl died, she could only take the money quietly.

And no wonder -- no wonder there were so many unjust souls in this ancient world.

Duanmu Kaoru was stared at by the purple clothes a little inexplicably.

In the Closing Dynasty, this kind of thing was actually a common occurrence.

Although the imperial court has also tried hard to investigate, it is just that few families are willing to openly admit this kind of loss of chastity [harmony] and purity, so even if the imperial court wants to manage it, it can't manage it.

"Cuilan is the daughter of the housekeeper in this courtyard, and she is just fourteen years old this year. Originally, the housekeeper Wang Ma had already married this Cuilan Xu to the tiger in the courtyard, but she never thought that the old man would also fall in love with this girl. It's just that in this house, the eldest wife and the second wife are also two extremely powerful masters, although the lord has accepted a few concubines one after another in recent years, but the dead are dead, the crippled, the missing are missing, and the last ones who can survive are also discarded by the lord aside, and rarely asked. This Cuilan grew up in this mansion since she was a child, and she has seen more of this kind of thing, so she naturally refuses to be a concubine for her master. And once the old man meets such a woman, his interest is even stronger, and his most common trick is to drug people. Paper Kite said, his face was even paler, as if he was thinking back to his unbearable past.

"This kind of trick, the master used it many times. It's just that she didn't expect that this Cuilan's temperament was also extraordinarily strong, and the next morning, she committed suicide under the locust tree outside her yard. After that, the lord gave Wang Ma a sum of money and drove the person out of the house. It's just that since the death of this Cuilan, there have been all kinds of strange things in the house, and the eldest lady has even been seriously ill, and the old man has also found that his body seems to have become very bad all of a sudden. ”

After the paper kite finished speaking, she sighed softly: "Heh-I didn't want to care about this kind of thing, but a few days ago, my daughter suddenly told me that she saw Aunt Cuilan, and Aunt Cuilan also wanted to pick osmanthus flowers for her to make osmanthus cakes." I'm afraid she'll come and hurt my daughter, soβ€”"

Only then did Ziyi notice that behind the somewhat dilapidated screen in the paper kite room, a small head poked out at this time.

"Come, Yinyin." The paper kite turned around, and the little girl hurriedly put her little head back, but was also found by the paper kite. She beckoned to the girl and said, "Come here, tell this sister what you have seen." ”

Ziyi likes the "sister" in the mouth of the paper kite very much, because of this word, she has a lot of good feelings for the woman in front of her.

The daughter of the paper kite is very cute, with big round eyes with some timidity, she ran to the side of the paper kite, her little hand gently grabbed the skirt of the paper kite, only poked out a small head, and looked at the purple clothes with some curiosity.
