Gu Laifu was calm, "Don't be afraid, Daddy, I'll go outside and have a look." ”

"Don't go, I don't believe she dares to break into the house, we won't open the door." Gu Zhiping was bold and pretended to be calm.

At this moment, Gu Chunyan's dissatisfied voice sounded outside the door: "Dad! Mother! You open the door, the door is inserted in broad daylight, and you won't let me go home? ”

"Chunyan?" Xu Cui'e raised her head and looked out of the window suspiciously, "Master, this can't be the spirit illusion, right?" Open the door in order to trick us? ”

"Wouldn't it? What if it's really our swallows coming back? Gu Zhiping looked at the people in the room with inquiring eyes, and he himself was not very sure.

"Oh, Daddy, you are such an adult, why can't you even hear the voice of your sister, and besides, there are any spirits in the world, don't be suspicious and scare yourself." After Gu Laifu finished persuading, he turned around and was about to go out.

"Dad is not superstitious, Dad only knows that Duran is indeed different, don't you think about it?" Gu Zhiping said insistently.

Wu Xiangqin also hurriedly stopped: "Daddy is right, Duran is a goblin, hooking your soul!" ”

"you, dare to talk nonsense again!" Gu Laifu pretended to raise his arm to scare Wu Xiangqin.

At this time, the door was smashed even louder, like a drum: "Knock knock!" Father? Elder brother? Sister-in-law? Hurry up and open the door, I'm a swallow! ”

The family was still hiding in the house, only Gu Laifu went out and opened the door without care, "Sister, where have you been in the past two days?" ”

"Let's talk about it when we go back to the house." Gu Chunyan entered the house happily, and then entered her father's house, only to see her father and sister-in-law looking at her strangely, and the suspicious eyes made her stunned immediately.

"What's wrong with you? Why are you looking at me like that? ”

Xu Cui'e said suspiciously: "You really ....... Is it my daughter? It can't be a youkai becoming, right? ”

Gu Chunyan's face stiffened, and she raised her face in displeasure: "What are you kidding, my daughter has worked hard to avenge you, but you suspect that I am a monster." ”

"What do you want to do when you followed you all the way from the field, and now you are my daughter...... Tell you...... So many of us are not afraid of you. Xu Cui'e hurriedly picked up the broom pimple on the kang and grinned at Gu Chunyan.

"Mother, are you hysterical? Babbling gibberish at me. Dad, you don't care about her. Gu Chunyan pouted in displeasure.

Gu Zhiping's face straightened: "We look like we're joking?" ”

Gu Chunyan was stunned and shook her head, "It's not like it, but what's wrong with you?" Am I that scary? ”

"It's not that I'm afraid of you, I'm afraid that the monster will become you." Gu Laifu helplessly explained to his sister-in-law.

Gu Chunyan's eyes widened in surprise, if her mother was the only one who said this, she must have been frightened by her mother and delirious. But the people in the room were as if they had lost their souls, and their faces were gloomy, which was indeed strange.

In order to alleviate everyone's fear, she comforted: "If I were a monster, the first thing I would do when I entered the door would be to eat you. Besides, if it's a real youkai, do you still need to knock on the door? Can't get in through the wall? ”

Hearing this, Gu Zhiping's heart relaxed a lot, as soon as he was relieved, Xu Cui'e also breathed a sigh of relief, threw away the broom pimple in his hand, stepped forward apologetically, and took Gu Chunyan's hand affectionately, and suddenly wet his eyes: "Girl, it's you, sit down, my mother has something to tell you." ”

Gu Chunyan was pulled by her mother to sit on the edge of the bed in a daze, and after listening to her mother talk about today's events, her face became bad.

"I said, since Du Lan married in and divided the family and the land, he was anxious to clear up the relationship with us, it turned out that this was making trouble, making our family unstable. She has only been here for a few days, and if this continues, the whole village will be harmed by her. Mother, we have to find a way to deal with her, and we can't let her harm our entire mountain village. ”

Wu Xiangqin let go of the child and echoed with tears in her eyes: "Yes, we have to find a Taoist priest to catch her, and I also took someone to arrest the female cadre before, and she knew in advance about her ability to reach the sky." She's just a banshee who doesn't do it properly, and no one in the whole village has anything to do with Zhang, so she's close to Zhang Zhenzi, isn't it strange? ”

Xu Cui'e nodded, Zhang Zhenzi was serious on the surface, but who knew that there was nothing lacking in morality behind the scenes, and in the past, when Zhenzi did things that destroyed other people's families, they did it secretly behind their backs.

Zhang Zhenzi's matter is just that he was not caught.

"Let's quickly find a Taoist priest to collect her, otherwise I won't be able to sleep well." Xu Cui'e said sadly.

Gu Zhiping pondered for a moment, and said with an embarrassed face: "Taoist priests charge a lot, how can we come up with so much money." ”

Xu Cui'e smiled proudly, "Our daughter is rich, she must have gotten a lot of valuable things for so long with that rich son." ”

Gu Chunyan raised her voice in surprise: "Mother, you said that I should pay this money?" ”

Why did you let her pay for it? Although she has a second son of the Xu family behind her, and she doesn't give less money, she plans to save all this money, and she needs to take care of the Xu Mansion in the future, especially as a newcomer, it is inevitable that she will not be valued by the maid masters when she goes to the Xu Mansion, and she will have to buy people's hearts when the time comes.

The most important thing is the housekeeper of the Xu Mansion, which is not something that can be taken for a few taels of silver.

"What's wrong? Dad raised you so big, you have the ability now, are you not happy to spend a few dollars on the family? Gu Zhiping's unhappy voice stabbed obliquely.

"Dad misunderstood me, I naturally have a share of this money, but as you said, it costs a lot of money to invite a Taoist priest, and I'm afraid I can't afford it alone." Gu Chunyan was embarrassed.

Xu Cui'e's face was heavy: "Girl, it's because the family can't afford it that I came to you." If we don't get rid of the demon Duran for a day, our family won't have a good life. Gu Ergongzi is afraid that he will also suffer, right? If you don't get rid of her, can you still marry into the Xu Mansion as you wish? ”

is still intimate with her mother, Xu Cui'e touched Xu Cui'e's heart with a word, and her face suddenly became serious: "Mother, do you really want to invite a Taoist priest?" ”

"Chunyan, there are some things you haven't heard of, you were still young at that time." Xu Cui'e said and stretched out her hand to hold her daughter's hand, and said with a frightened face: "Something similar happened in my mother's village before, saying that the newly married daughter-in-law was caught by a ghost, and found a goddess to drive her away, and then she had a serious illness, and she woke up after sleeping for three days and three nights. At that time, everyone said that the ghost had injured his own spirit. ”

"Mother is sure that Duran is a ghost?"

"Think about it, Duran used to be crazy, and when she married You'an, she suddenly became shrewd and tough, and then you think about the day she got married, she came back from the river and beat me and your sister-in-law. A weasel was also released on his body to scare his mother. The most important thing is that Duran, a girl who has just married, has amazing strength, and your sister-in-law and I can't beat her together, can this be done by manpower? ”

Gu Chunyan fell into deep thought, she didn't go out to see that day, so she didn't see Du Lan's ruthlessness, but seeing that her mother and sister-in-law were indeed injured a lot, a woman's strength was amazing, this was indeed abnormal.

Xu Cui'e patted her hand, "Figured it out, right?" She's a ghost leaning over at all, and we have to find a Taoist priest. ”

In the past, they couldn't get along with Duran everywhere, but now that they think about it, it's really scary, this monster can't show its true nature, so it can only slowly torture their family, anyway, Duran has changed This is an indisputable fact.

Xu Cui'e urged impatiently: "Girl, we and Gu Ergongzi are both thorns in Du Lan's side, and she will attack us sooner or later." As the saying goes, the first strike is the strongest, and then the first attack suffers, you hurry up and get the money, so that your father can hurry up and invite the Taoist priest to come. ”

"Mother, how much does that cost?" Gu Chunyan was heartbroken.

Xu Cui'e asked the people in the room: "Who of you knows where there is a Taoist priest?" How do you get paid? ”

Wu Xiangqin thought for a while, "Mother, I've heard people say that Taoist priests don't collect low, and there is a master in my mother's family three miles away, and that person can be effective, it is said that he is out of the horse ......."

Without waiting for her to finish, Xu Cui'e immediately interjected and asked, "How much does it cost directly?" ”

"Seems like fifty taels? Seventy or eighty taels? Many people in the city went to ask him for a higher price, and he had to use a carriage to pick it up in person. ”

"Huh? So much, huh? Gu Chunyan said in surprise, "How can I have so much silver." ”

She and Xu Heming are together, and they only make a total of 100 taels of silver, even if they sell those good-looking jewelry, they will only make up 200 taels, and she can't spend all her old capital.
