Chapter 133: The Ma Family's Secrets
Cui'er shook her head and said, "Naturally, there isn't!" The lord and the lady love the young lady so much, seeing that she does not hesitate to die, how can they be willing to force her again? Later, the master compensated the Liu family for many losses, so that this matter passed! ”
Pity the hearts of parents all over the world, whether it was agreeing to the union of Miss Ma and the prodigal son, or secretly planning the marriage between Miss Ma and Liu Gongzi, all of them were done out of love!
Zhen Bei nodded, "Yes." But what happened? Why did Miss Ma abandon that attic again? Where does she live now? ”
Cui'er thought for a while, and Fang cautiously replied: "Later, our young lady has been recuperating in the attic, and the master invited many famous doctors to come and treat her, but even the slaves and maids know that the young lady has a heart disease, how can the medicine stone be cured?" Presumably the master himself knows this, but he just refuses to give up! In the end, the old man actually listened to someone's slander, thinking that the young lady had lost her soul, and invited some monks and Taoists to summon the soul of the young lady! ”
It's no wonder that the Ma County Order will do this, but whoever is a father will be heartbroken and want to keep trying to do something when he sees his baby daughter change from a well-behaved daughter who knows how to read and be reasonable, and he doesn't know what joy, anger, sorrow and happiness are!
"Master Ma, didn't you think about looking for that son?" Princess Kaya on the side interjected and asked.
"Naturally, there is. Since Lu Gongzi left for several months, there has been no news of him, and the master has been asking people around about his whereabouts, but it seems that there is no gain! Cui'er sighed, she thought of something, with a slight light in her eyes, and said, "I don't know if it was the perseverance of the lord and the lady that moved the gods in the sky." Once, on the night after the Taoist uncle's conjuring was over, the young lady suddenly regained her senses, although her face was still gloomy, but she was really better, her mind was clear, and her speech and deeds were also organized! ”
Princess Keya said happily: "So, Miss Ma is doing well now?" It's really good, I've always liked the stories of these talented and beautiful women, but I haven't had the chance to really see the true faces of the hero and heroine, Ming'er must visit your young lady Fang Xing, and forget it, but it's a wish! ”
She said excitedly, winking at Zhenbei: "Do you want to go and meet this talented woman who is very talented in landscape design?" ”
Zhenbei shook her head helplessly and did not speak.
If Miss Ma's story ends here, since then, life will be smooth, I'm afraid that Cui'er won't have to talk about it so fearfully and cautiously, besides, if Miss Ma has recovered as before, this time Nangong Ke came to Ma's mansion, and Ma County, who has always been proud of his daughter, should not miss such a good opportunity.
Sure enough, when Cui'er heard that Duke Keya was going to see Miss, she panicked inside, and quickly knelt on the ground with a grunt, and said in a trembling voice: "Miss, no!" If you go directly to meet our young lady like this, the slave will be in trouble! ”
"Look at what scares you, get up! You don't have to worry, Miss Ben will naturally not confess you, you can rest assured! Master Ma has such a proud daughter, there is no reason to be afraid of people knowing! Princess Keya waved her hand disappreciably and said.
Zhen Bei sighed secretly, got up and helped Cui'er, and said, "Cui'er, don't worry, this young lady will not rush to visit your young lady, didn't we already promise you!" ”
Princess Keya was puzzled in her heart, and was about to ask, "Why not", but after receiving a sharp look from Zhenbei, she had to swallow back the words that came to her mouth, and only pursed her mouth dissatisfied.
After receiving Zhenbei's guarantee, Cui'er wiped the cold sweat from her forehead and got up from the ground in thanks.
"Half a year ago, what happened to your young lady?" Seeing that her expression gradually regained her composure, Zhenbei poured a cup of tea, put it in her hand, and asked again.
Cui'er looked at her gratefully, and although her throat was indeed thirsty, she did not dare to drink it in a big way.
Thinking of what happened half a year ago, her heart jumped violently, and she didn't even seem to feel the thirst in her mouth: "Just half a year ago, Miss suddenly saw a ghost and went crazy!" ”
"What?" Zhenbei and Miss Koya exclaimed in unison.
"What the hell is going on?" Zhen Bei asked.
Cui'er's face turned pale and said, "The slave doesn't know what happened specifically, but I just listened to the sisters who kept vigil in private." On the night of the incident, the young lady did not rest early as usual.
"After having dinner at the old lady's, the young lady ordered the men to light candles in all the wings of the attic where she lived, and then let them all leave the attic, and walk around all the wings by herself, as if looking for something!
Seeing that it was late at night, except for the maid who kept vigil and the young lady's nurse Huang Ma, the rest of the people went back to rest as usual!
Seeing that the young lady locked herself in the attic, there has been no movement, and after a long time, although the young lady explained that she was not allowed to go in and disturb, Huang Ma couldn't help but come forward and knock on the door because she was a little worried.
Just after Huang's mother shouted twice, she heard the young lady suddenly screaming inside. Huang Ma and Little Bell ignored Miss's previous explanation, and hurriedly broke into the attic, and in a room where sundries were placed, they found Miss.
The young lady pointed to a corner and cried out in horror, "There is a ghost", and when Huang Ma and the little bell looked there, they noticed that a bright light flashed and disappeared into the window.
The people who were awakened hurriedly called the lord and the lady, and the young lady was trembling all over, and she was already crazy and delirious, and only said that there was a ghost in this attic who liked to eat the corners of the wall!
The old man asked the debris in the corner to be removed, and sure enough, he found that there was some new mud sprinkled on the corner of the wall, as if it had been scratched by something!
"Could it be a rat or something in the attic?" Zhen Beidao.
At first, the lord thought so, thinking that they must be wrong. On the one hand, he asked his wife to comfort the young lady and go back to the room to rest, and on the other hand, he asked all the things in the room to be moved out overnight, so that the broken corners of the walls could be repaired!
A few days later, however, the young lady saw the thing again, and even the people encountered strange things every now and then, or heard some strange sounds like gnawing on wood and stones, or saw a white shadow wandering in the attic late at night!
This matter is getting bigger and bigger, and the whole house is boiling, and the people on Miss's side are even more frightened all the time, especially at night, and they dare not go out of the wing room alone!
After encountering 'ghosts' several times in a row, the young lady's illness became more and more serious, and the master heard the Taoist priest uncle again and asked him to help exorcise the ghosts! Uncle Daoist pasted talismans all over the attic, telling everyone to stay away from the attic, but he took a peachwood sword and waited there to catch ghosts!
The next day, just when everyone thought that everything was over and reunited outside the attic, the Taoist priest walked out with a broken wooden sword in embarrassment, he waved his hand at the old man, and said, "This thing is too evil in my heart, I can't surrender it, and please ask the master to be smart!" When the old man asked again, he just shook his head and said nothing, and left the house without even using the breakfast he had prepared. I heard that he had said something to the master before leaving, so the master ordered someone to seal the attic that day, and built another residence for the young lady, and at the same time, no one was allowed to approach the attic!
Because the back garden is only separated by a wall from the attic, when someone passes by there, they hear strange noises coming from the attic, and some people witness ghosts floating in the attic from the height of the garden. And gradually at night, the back garden closest to the attic also became a forbidden place! ”
"I see, no wonder you suggested that we wait until dawn to enjoy the flowers!" Zhenbei nodded.
"You, you're saying that all the people who can walk around the attic at this time are ghosts?" Princess Keya's eyes widened and she panicked, "Could it be that the shadow I saw just now was—"
She trembled slightly because she was too scared, and stared at Cui'er inquiringly, hoping that the other party could say something that would make her feel at ease.
But seeing that the latter moved slightly, he nodded with great certainty.
"Ahh Princess Keya gasped, and her breath couldn't help but become short, "Zhenbei, I'll go to your room for one night, okay?" ”
Zhen Bei glanced at her, this princess who usually looks dignified and beautiful, but in fact she is extremely simple and timid, she snorted from her nose and glared at her angrily.
At this time, although Princess Keya was wearing a veil, she was dressed as a woman, and Zhenbei was naturally dressed in men's clothes, like a beautiful son, and a woman rashly proposed to sleep with a man, which was unintentionally a shocking thing.
However, Zhen Bei's reaction was too natural, and Cui'er mentioned this past incident that made her feel scared, and the whole person was still in a huge panic, and she didn't notice anything wrong at all, and by the time she realized it later, Zhen Bei and the others had already left Ma Fu.
At that time, Cui'er was impressed by Zhenbei's last series of operations, even though she felt that Gu Gongzi was not thoughtful in this matter and did not take into account Miss Keya's reputation, but she still chose to hide it for her, and until a hundred years later, she did not let the second person know about it.
"Cui'er, thank you, you can solve the confusion for us!" Zhen Bei said, "This matter is over, it's not too early, you go back to your room to rest!" There won't be a fourth person other than the three of us who will know about tonight's conversation! ”
Cui'er answered, walked towards the door, and suddenly stopped in front of the door.
"But scared? Don't dare to go back alone? Princess Kaya empathized.
Cui'er turned around slowly and hesitated: "Also, not anymore!" The slave has one more thing I want to say to the two of you! ”
"Please!" Zhen Bei expected that what she said must be related to what she had talked about before, and hurriedly said.
Cui'er swallowed her saliva, turned around and walked back a few steps, and said, "Actually, before that incident, the slave maid found out that something was wrong with the young lady!" ”
Zhenbei and Princess Khaya gave each other a quick look in surprise and motioned for her to continue.
"Because a little sister has something to do at home temporarily, the slave maid will keep vigil in the lady's room for her."
