Chapter 132: Curse Retaliation
As soon as Grandma Sun's voice fell, all eyes focused on Yan Ran's body.
Although Yan Ran's face remained unchanged, she was shocked in her heart.
Unexpectedly, the Wen family was able to defeat her in such a short period of time!
When Mrs. Yan saw the puppet with her birth date written on it, her face turned green, and she said gloomily: "What about the puppet that cursed Ran'er?" β
Wen felt a little hated that iron could not become steel, and stepped forward and shouted: "Mother, don't you understand? The puppet was found from her yard, and only the puppet that cursed you and You'er did not curse her. This shows that she is pretending to be sick, that is, she cursed you and You'er with the technique of disgust! β
Old Madam Yan looked at Yan Ran when she heard this, but there was a lot of uncertainty in her eyes, she couldn't figure out the reason why Yan Ran did this.
After a moment of consternation, Yan Ran had calmed down and asked, "Grandma Sun, is this thing really from Qionghua Courtyard?" Where exactly? β
Grandma Sun replied, "To be exact, this thing was found in the food box containing the eldest girl's meal. And this food box is now in the small kitchen of Qionghua Courtyard. β
Yan Ran's heart suddenly settled down, and the secret path was indeed so.
She has already cleared up and down the Qionghua Academy, everything is under control, and she is confident that it will never be broken through by the Wen family in a short time.
So it wasn't meant to be put in temporarily, but it should have been brought in from the outside.
Yan Ran sneered lightly with a smile, and said to Mrs. Yan: "Grandmother, the food box for distributing meals in the kitchen is public and random, and it is carried back and forth every day. I used it today, and it may have been used by someone else yesterday, so how can I be sure that the things in it are mine? I'm afraid that someone deliberately framed him! β
Wen sneered: "Yan Ran, you don't have to quibble!" You fell ill at the same time as the old lady and You'er, and the cause is unknown. Now, something overwhelming was found in the house, which shows that this is the cause. But there is no puppet that curses you, and the puppet that curses the old lady was found in your yard, and it is clear that you have used the technique of overwhelming the old lady and You'er! In order to clear the suspicion, you feigned illness with them. Now you put the puppet in the food box again, in order to take this thing out of the Qionghua Courtyard without knowing it, so as not to be discovered! β
Yan Ran almost applauded Wen's ability to make up stories.
But she didn't do this, but just asked lightly: "Since my mother thinks that I did this, why did I do it?" β
Old Madam Yan also looked at Wen in puzzlement, and wondered: "Yes, why?" β
The Wen family hated Yan Ran, gritted his teeth and said, "Because you don't want to marry the Liu family!" So you are playing tricks and want to use these strange things as an excuse to postpone the marriage with the Liu family, right? β
Yan Ran couldn't help but raise her eyebrows slightly, Wen actually guessed her thoughts.
However, what she said is just speculation, and there is no evidence!
Yan Ran asked again: "Why am I unwilling to marry the Liu family?" β
Wen was speechless for a moment.
Of course, she knew that Yan Ran must have understood her intentions before she set up this plan.
But she can't say it in public, the marriage she gave Yan Ranxun is not as beautiful as it seems, but a needle hidden in the cotton, right?
Old Madam Yan also felt that it didn't make sense, the Liu family was not wronged Yan Ran in terms of family background or family background, why did she go to such great lengths to do these things?
Seeing that everyone was waiting for an answer, Wen gritted his teeth and said slanderously: "Because, this little slut is unwilling to divorce the Dingguo Mansion, and she still wants to snatch this marriage back!" β
When Yan Ran heard this, she finally couldn't help but laugh out loud: "Mother, are you mistaken? I was the first person to be engaged to Dingguo Gong, it was Yan Yao who was shameless and had a private relationship with Dingguo Gong, so I quit the marriage angrily. If I didn't want to withdraw from the marriage at the beginning, it would not be Yan Yao's turn to get married. If you say that you covet it, it should be Yan Yao who covets my marriage, so I seduced my eldest sister's fiancΓ© and snatched this marriage! β
This is also what most people think, thinking that Yan Yao was jealous of Yan Ran, so she seduced Wen Chengyan and robbed her of her marriage.
But because Yan Yao and Wen Chengyan have been engaged, Yan Ran has never expressed her position, and everyone only discussed it in private, and never brought this matter to the table.
Now, with Yan Ran's straightforward accusation, Yan Yao's face turned pale, and she shouted with red eyes: "Yan Ran, you are spewing blood!" β
But apart from such a dry sentence, she couldn't say anything strong to refute it, after all, the marriage robbery does exist, and the real internal cause can't be declared.
Yan Ran ignored Yan Yao, and continued: "The Liu family is a noble family in Anyang City, and Young Master Liu is a talent, not much worse than Grandpa Wen, but his conduct is more than a star and a half better than him. The sky has eyes, so I am far away from the negative person, and I have found a good match, but it is too late to rejoice in my heart, why not? β
"You!"
Wen obviously knew that what Yan Ran said was not sincere, but because there was still her own business in it, she couldn't debunk her.
It's really dumb to eat coptis, I can't say the bitterness, and Wen's heart is depressed.
At this moment, Master Yan rushed over, looked at the chaotic scene, and asked sharply, "What's the matter?" β
Wen hurriedly stepped forward, and cried about the future situation, naturally not forgetting to splash all the dirty water on Yan Ran's body.
Old Man Yan, like Old Madam Yan, although he was afraid of this aversion to victory, he still had a skeptical attitude towards Wen's judgment of Yan Ran.
Yan Ran took the opportunity to propose: "Dad, my daughter has a plan, maybe she can find out who did this trick of disgusting victory." β
Old Man Yan hurriedly said: "Come quickly." β
Yan Ran said: "The art of disgust is to cast a spell through puppets, so as long as this thing still exists, the curse will not be lifted, and the cursed person will inevitably be harmed." The only way to lift the curse is to burn the puppet. β
Yan Ran paused, glanced at Wen and Yan Yao with a vague look, and said meaningfully: "However, while burning the puppet to lift the curse, the person who casts the spell will also be counterattacked. At that time, we only need to see who will be attacked to know who is the one who casts the curse. β
"No way!"
As soon as Yan Ran's words fell, Yan Yao shouted.
Old Man Yan looked over suspiciously: "Why?" β
Yan Yao's face was pale, her eyes dodged, and she explained in a panic: "Daughter, my daughter is afraid that the eldest sister will be counterattacked!" Although the eldest sister did something wrong, she should not be punished in this way, but should still think about it in the long run. β
Yan Ran said to Master Yan very firmly: "Dad, this matter was not done by my daughter, my daughter is honest and ashamed, so naturally there is nothing to be afraid of." Dad just burn the puppet, and the truth will definitely come out! β
"No way!"
This time, it was Wen who opened his mouth to stop him.
Wen gently persuaded Master Yan and said, "Master, this is a technique of disgust with winning, how can it be child's play?" The puppet was written with the birthdays of Niang and You'er, but with a prick, You'er had already fainted in pain. If this is burned with fire, what if the two of them have three long and two short? β
Master Yan felt that Wen's words were reasonable, and it was about the old mother and young son, and he didn't dare to act rashly.
But now, finding out who is under the curse is still secondary, and how to deal with these two puppets is the key.
Old Man Yan was frowning, when suddenly a puff of smoke drifted over.
Only then did he remember that there was a master in the house.
He was immediately overjoyed and said, "Come on, go and invite the Taoist chief to come over!" β
The Taoist priest who was invited by Master Yan to come to the house to practice soon came over.
He was wearing a gray Taoist costume, holding a whisk in his hand, with a long beard, looking like a fairy, but his eyes were full of essence.
Master Yan handed the puppet to the Taoist priest, he only looked at it for a moment, then showed a look of disdain, and said: "The technique of disgust requires placing the personal belongings of the cursed person on the puppet, writing the eight characters of the birthday, and casting a spell. The process is cumbersome and requires a certain amount of skill, which ordinary people simply cannot do. This puppet is just a puppet with the old lady's birthday written on it, and it doesn't have any curse effect. β
Old Madam Yan was relieved when she heard that she was fine.
Master Yan was also a lot relieved: "I see, that means that my mother's illness has nothing to do with this aversion to victory, right?" β
The Taoist priest glanced at him, very dissatisfied: "Lord Yan, Poor Dao has already said that the illness of Ling Tang, Ling Yan, and Ling Lang is caused by the evil chaos in the house, but Lord Yan doesn't believe in Poor Dao?" β
Master Yan hurriedly explained: "Don't misunderstand, Dao Chief, I have no such intention!" β
Yan Ran frowned slightly, her mind changed, and she seemed to think of something.
She walked up to Old Madam Yan and whispered a few words.
Old Madam Yan showed the Taoist priest the puppet with Yan Qiyou's birthday written on it, and asked worriedly: "Daoist, this puppet has the birthday of my little grandson written on it." He had a needle stuck in it, and he had a pain in his abdomen, and after the needle was removed, he was fine. Look at this puppet, but is it okay? β
The Taoist priest still took the puppet and looked at it with a nonchalant face, but his face suddenly changed greatly.
He actually pulled out a few hairs from the puppet, and then thought of what Old Madam Yan had just said, and couldn't help but be a little frightened: "I'm afraid it's not Ling Lang's hair?" If this is the case, this spell has been accomplished, so Ling Lang has been affected. β
Old Man Yan hurriedly asked, "Dao Chief, is there a way to crack it?" β
The Taoist priest said with a serious face: "For the sake of today, only by burning the puppet can the curse be lifted." At the same time, the person who casts the curse will also be counterattacked accordingly. β
The Taoist priest's statement turned out to be the same as Yan Ran's, which aroused Wen's suspicions.
She immediately asked Yan Ran: "Sure enough, it was you, a little slut, who harmed my You'er!" Otherwise, how can you know such a lot of sorcery? β
Yan Ran was amused by Wen's questioning: "I read a lot of books, and I understand a lot of nature, what's so strange about this?" Dao Chief, please hurry up and lift the curse for your brother. I'd love to know who the backlash will be! β
Yan Ran said, glancing at Wen coldly, and a smug look flashed in his eyes, which made Wen resentful.
When the Taoist priest really wanted to throw the puppet into the brazier, Yan Yao finally couldn't bear it anymore, collapsed and squatted on the ground and cried, shouting in pain: "Ah! No! β
