Chapter 373: Practice
Shen Mei slowly walked to Zhao Er's side, and heard Zhao Er's tone indifferently say to Shen Mei: "I, the head of the Zhao family, am really embarrassed enough, so that Gongzi can see this situation." ”
Shen Mei could hear the loss in Zhao Er's tone, although she didn't know what kind of ups and downs the Zhao family had experienced in the past few years, but she was sure that it was such a family whose bitterness was difficult to tell others.
"I don't know if I'm embarrassed or not, but Xiaosheng sees everything that Zhao Dangjia has done for the Zhao family, they are your family and can't give your family's support, so why do you continue to hide the ugly faces of these people? I think this is what the ancestors of the Zhao family don't want to see. Shen Mei didn't intend to give comfort.
For Zhao Er at this time, what is the use of comfort? It's just an itch in the boots, it's useless at all, rather than like this, Shen Mei thinks it's better to drink it directly. Sooner or later, such a Zhao family will push Zhao Er and his wife into an extremely dangerous situation, and Shen Mei does not want to see such a thing happen.
Zhao Er smiled bitterly: "It turns out that the son has already seen all this, Zhao is stupid, thinking that his father's entrustment is for me to maintain the Zhao family well, thinking that as long as they give them what they want, they can achieve family harmony, but I didn't expect this to become an indulgence for them." ”
Shen Mei quietly looked at the rows of enshrined positions in the Zhao family, what kind of obsession could make Zhao Eryi endure and endure again? Family? Who else in this family regards their husband and wife as family?
"The desires of human nature are always endless, the satisfaction you think may be just the beginning of what they want, the reason why Master Zhao handed over the Zhao family to you must be that he has seen the difference between you and them." Shen Mei said slowly.
After hearing this, Zhao Er got up, and what Shen Mei couldn't see was the brilliance emanating from the tall man's eyes.
Shen Mei didn't know that her words were a good medicine for Zhao Er, and she dissipated her troubled and uneasy past and anxiety one by one.
"Let's go and have a look." Zhao Er turned around and said with a slight smile at Shen Mei.
The two of them went to the place where the group had prepared just now, and saw that the eldest lady of the Zhao family also rushed over with someone, what Shen Mei didn't expect was that the eldest lady would be very concerned about such a thing.
The third lady asked the Taoist chief to do the ritual in her courtyard, and the crowd surrounded the Taoist who saw the Taoist with a silver beard on his face, who was doing it beside the altar, holding a peachwood sword in his hand, pasting a few charms, and then saying something in his mouth.
Shen Mei followed Zhao Er and easily walked into the crowd, and saw the eldest lady standing beside the third lady with her personal maid, followed by a middle-aged man. Shen Mei asked about the identity of the person, only to know that this man who looked pale was the butler of the Zhao family, who had been in the Zhao family since the generation of Master Zhao, and was an old man of the Zhao family.
Shen Mei just glanced at it, and felt that there was a bit of subtlety in this man's expression and movements, but where she felt strange couldn't be said for a while.
Then his eyes were drawn by the movements of this Dao Master, and the moment Shen Mei came back to his senses, the Dao Master looked at Shen Mei at the same time, and the two of them exchanged expressions, and they couldn't see what this person was planning.
Shen Mei didn't easily move her gaze away, the Zhao family had a lot of eyeliners, and she couldn't let others see that she knew this person, so as not to be noticed.
However, after some hard thinking, Shen Mei still couldn't figure out why this person appeared in this place? Why did he come to the Zhao family so coincidentally?
Shen Mei couldn't guess this person's thoughts, and it wasn't a matter of a day or two.
Thinking about it, I was called back to my senses by an exclamation, "Wow......."
After the Taoist chief took a sip of wine, the spell on the peachwood sword ignited, and this scene really looked like a liar on the rivers and lakes. Shen Mei was only surprised, she didn't see that Yun Pei, the village chief in the fishing village, would still play such a trick, even if she really didn't know the mystery, she was afraid that she would be as stunned as these people and believed it, thinking that this Taoist chief could really subdue demons and eliminate demons.
The ritual was carried out for most of the day, and then a few drawn charms were instructed to be pasted in various corners and said that the magic circle had been laid, and the demons and monsters could no longer enter the courtyard of the third lady.
Seeing that this Daoist was so effective, the eldest lady hurriedly stepped forward and asked: "Since the Daoist has come to the Zhao family, it is better to take a clear look at all corners of the entire Zhao family's compound, so as not to mess around with those unclean things." ”
The Taoist chief looked extremely reluctant: "The eldest lady said this, the poor Dao doesn't like to listen to it, since the third lady of the Zhao family has invited the poor Dao to do the ritual, then the Zhao family's compound will definitely be able to turn evil into good fortune, and the eldest lady doesn't have to worry about it." ”
When the eldest lady heard this, she hurriedly apologized: "Yes, yes, what the Taoist chief said is reasonable. But I'm also thinking about the Zhao family, the Zhao family has not been going well every year in the past few years, and I want to invite the Taoist chief to see how the Zhao family's feng shui is?" Then he secretly stuffed a cloth towel folded in the cuffs into the cuffs of the road chief.
The Dao Chief's face changed, but after looking at the lady beside him with a somewhat earnest look in his eyes, he agreed: "Since the lady has such a heart, then the poor Dao is calculating." ”
The eldest lady received an affirmative agreement from the Taoist chief and smiled contentedly.
Zhao Er hurriedly rushed over, arched his hand towards the Taoist and said, "The Taoist has already done a Dharma today, why don't you stay in the Zhao Mansion for one night, and then do the Fa tomorrow?" ”
Shen Mei didn't know what medicine was sold in Zhao Er's gourd, but since Zhao Er had already made a decision, the Zhao family's affairs could be settled.
The end of a good show means that another good show is about to be staged, Shen Mei knows that she is not an outsider now, and she may have been deeply trapped in it when she got off the ship alive, but she still doesn't know how this scene will continue.
In the dead of night, a gust of wind in the courtyard of the Zhao family blew towards the dark corner of the yard, and a cat's meow echoed again in the silent night, and the trees in the yard were blown off by the cold wind, and the sound made the night deeper and deeper.
Shen Mei knew that this night would not be peaceful, but she didn't expect it to come faster and faster, just like the strange sound just now.
Immediately afterwards, Shen Mei walked lightly into the window, feeling that something was shaking, and she secretly knew in her heart that as she expected, they were looking at themselves tonight.
