Chapter 67: Obsession

Tonight seemed to be unusually muggy, and the aroma of tuberose in the dreary and oppressive air was so intense that it almost made me faint, as if I would suffocate after a few more breaths.

The black clouds crept up, engulfing the waning moon and the stars, and the depths of the dark clouds were wrapped in a faint thunder, like a giant spirit god gathering his anger.

It wasn't until the stuffiness and heat reached its peak that an extremely long lightning bolt tore through the night sky, and the heaviest rain of the summer finally fell.

The city of Zhaoyi was shrouded in a curtain of rain, and the raindrops were beating eagerly and violently against all obstacles they encountered, like a shrew who had lost her mind.

By dawn, the rain had not stopped, and most of the people in the capital were late.

There are only two types of people who have to get up early, one is an official like Wei Zongyong who needs to go to the court, and the other is the person who is responsible for flood control of the Yonghe River.

This rain has worried many businessmen, and such a rain business cannot be done. But the farmer was happy, and after a long drought and a rainy day, he finally did not have to worry about the crops dying of thirst.

There are also people in the Zhiyong Mansion who are happy and some are sad.

Wei Changan was urged early in the morning, because he had to listen to Xu Daru's speech, so he had to brave the wind and rain.

The anger of getting up and the inertia of not liking to read made him very bored at the moment, and several shallow pits on his face were overflowing with dissatisfaction.

Bao's elaborate breakfast was, in his opinion, all bland and tasteless, just a few symbolic bites, and then he dropped the dishes and chopsticks.

Now he has already forgotten about last night's incident, but he just bullied a girl, and he doesn't dare to do anything if he forgives her.

He didn't feel a trace of guilt about Chunying in his heart, and he didn't feel ashamed of his behavior.

If this thing still has a slight impact on him, it is just that he knows the taste of men and women, and thinks that this thing is very interesting, and he can try more in the future.

"Young Master, the carriage is ready, the little one will hold an umbrella for you, let's go quickly!" Dolu came in from outside, and the rain soaked the corners of his shoes and robes.

Wei Changan stood up and went out dejectedly.

Compared with him, Wei Zongyong went out earlier, and there was nothing to do in the early dynasty today, because this heavy rain alleviated the drought, and the emperor and all the officials were very happy, so they dispersed early.

Wei Zongyong ignored the rain and the slippery road, and rushed to the outer house, such weather is the best and crispy hiding in the red silk tent to drink and have fun.

Wei Zongyong hoped that the sky would not be sunny and the rain would continue to fall, so that he would not have to go back to the house, and at the same time he could take leave from the court and be a fairy in the gentle countryside with the crispy little lady.

In such a wet and cold weather, the skin on the crispy body is like a fine brocade, lubricated and slightly cool, which is particularly fascinating.

With such a heavy rain, Bao went to ask Mrs. Zhu for peace, so he had to stay in his room. No one came to disturb her, so she could calm down and carefully plan for Wei Yimi's family affairs.

Aunt Mei and her two daughters gathered together, doing embroidery and gossiping.

"Speaking of which, why doesn't the fourth sister always come out these days?" Wei Yijia remembered that he hadn't seen Wei Yiwan for a long time.

"Didn't you say that you were sick again and didn't see anyone?" Wei Yiroom said casually: "Isn't she usually like this?" ”

"She's so complacent now, does she have to pretend to be sick?" Wei Yijia sneered and said: "Who doesn't know how sick she can be and not even get out of the door?" ”

"According to you, she must be really sick," Wei Yimuro said, "or she would have been in front of us." ”

Aunt Mei listened to the words of her two daughters, so she diverted the topic and said: "I made some pine nut candy yesterday, and sent some to the old lady and the lady, and there are still a lot left, I asked Chunxi to bring them to you to eat!" ”

As he spoke, he asked the maid to bring over the peach porcelain jar on the chest of drawers, which contained half a jar of pine nut candy.

Wei Yijia shook his head and said, "Whoever eats this thing doesn't have to worry about it." ”

Wei Yifang didn't eat it, and he still felt that Aunt Mei was born in a small portal and loved to eat these cheap things.

Wei Yiwan was happier than everyone else, because on such a rainy day, she had enough reason to hide in the room and not come out, and even the Bao family would not come to see her.

Chunlan carefully took out one of the three plasters she had taken from the mad Taoist priest yesterday, and Wei Yiwan couldn't wait to urge her to apply it to herself quickly.

"Thanks to the fact that I asked you to go to Dao Ye a few days ago to get a few plasters," Wei Yiwan said in a happy tone: "Otherwise, how can you go out in such a heavy rain?" ”

Chunlan glanced at Wei Yiwan with complicated eyes, now all the hair on her head had fallen out, and there were multiple abscesses on her scalp that were ulcerated, looking exactly like the beggars who took the lead in the broken temple.

In the dim light, it looked ugly, terrible, even disgusting.

Wei Yiwan saw her standing there still, so she urged, "What are you doing there?!" Come and give me the medicine! Didn't you say that when the master gave you these patches, he told you to put them on me? He also said that after using these patches, the wound on the scalp will heal and new hair will begin to grow. ”

"That's exactly what he said that day," Chunlan stepped forward and said, "But the slave always thinks he's crazy." ”

"You don't have to be verbose," Wei Yiwan said unhappily: "It's all here, can you still turn back?" ”

Chunlan opened the plaster, and a fishy smell rushed straight to her nose, which was disgusting.

"Miss, the medicine I took this time smells too bad," Chunlan covered her nose and said, "Isn't it inappropriate?" ”

Of course, Wei Yiwan also smelled it, but she believed from the bottom of her heart that the Taoist priest could cure her illness, just like curing the child of Aunt Mei's sister-in-law's family.

"What are you talking about! There are stupid people like you in the world, no wonder Dao Ye repeatedly explained to me that his method of curing diseases was special. Originally, people refused to give treatment, but we begged others, but now they are suspicious, what do you want me to do? Besides, it's already the last two stickers, how can you not use it? ”

Chunlan saw that Wei Yiwan was angry, and she didn't dare to say anything more.

She knows the temper of the fourth lady, if she says it deeper, I am afraid that she will be punished again.

After serving Wei Yiwan for so many years, there is no month that he has not been beaten. Her temper is so bad and weird that people can't figure it out at all.

Chunlan held her breath and slowly applied the unpleasant plaster to Wei Yiwan's scalp.

Wei Yiwan was sweating all over her body, as if there were thousands of needles pricking her scalp, and it seemed to be burning with a soldering iron, mixed with bone-eroding itching, like insects and ants constantly scratching. In short, very sad.

"When I get through these days, I'll impress all of you!" Wei Yiwan endured the great pain and said through gritted teeth in her heart.

The pain distorted her face and made her look evil and ugly, like a witch.
