Chapter 10: Strange Things

As soon as Old Lady Jian's voice fell, not only Jian Yao and other young grandchildren, but even Old Lady Jian was a little curious, urging him to tell everyone quickly.

Old Lady Jian cleared her throat and said, "There is a man named Gu Er in the village, and his wife conceived and gave birth to twin daughters in October five years ago. This should have been a happy event, but the baby girl was born with her bodies connected, and the mother who delivered the baby fainted on the spot. ”

"The people in the village thought that the twin baby girls were unknown, that they were the stars of heaven descending into the world, and that they wanted to burn them to death to appease the anger of the heavens. Just as the fire was lit, a strange man wearing a hat rescued the twin baby girls. ”

Just when everyone thought that the twin baby girls would not survive, five years later, the strange man wearing the hat reappeared, accompanied by two girls who looked exactly the same. Sharp-eyed villagers found that the two girls looked seven or eight points alike Gu Er's wife. While everyone was speculating about the girls' identities, the strange man with the hat told them that the two girls were the twin baby girls who were conjoined back then. ”

Everyone who heard the news was shocked, and the strange man told them that the girls were originally two fairy children under the seat of Guanyin, and they were ignited by Guanyin and landed in the mortal dust to save the people. They were born conjoined because they were bitter about their minds, and when they were five years old, they could naturally separate. And because that village is their birthplace, the villagers in the village will be blessed by them. ”

Hearing this, Brother Jian couldn't help frowning, "I'm afraid that the hat monster deliberately used the girl to pretend to be a ghost to deceive the trust of the villagers, so that those lawbreakers could take advantage of the opportunity to collect money." ”

"At first, you Grandpa Wen and I thought the same thing, so we decided to stay in that village for a few days. Something happened later that the two of us couldn't understand the old stuff. Old Lady Jane said.

"Grandfather, you can finish it all at once, don't always pause!" Jian Yao was listening carefully, and seeing that Old Lady Jian always stopped, she couldn't help but urge him.

Old Lady Jane continued: "That pair of girls really seem to have magical powers, not only can review what happened in the past, but also see changes in the future. After they verified several things one after another, the villagers became convinced of them. ”

"You and Grandpa Wen don't believe in evil, so we asked some questions at random, and they all gave answers. I can't believe that they even know the secrets that I didn't know when I was a child. ”

"I'm asking about the past, and you're asking about the future. They told you about Grandpa Wen and said that there were two happy events on the night of the Mid-Autumn Festival at his house. One is added, and the other is promoted. When we rushed back with a skeptical attitude, your grandfather Wen happened to meet the family who came back from the capital to report the good news, saying that the second child of his family was promoted to two levels in a row, which was the first joy. The second joy is that when he was about to enter the door, he met the grandmother next to the eldest grandson's daughter-in-law and asked the doctor to come back, saying that the eldest grandson's daughter-in-law suddenly fainted. ”

"The two of us hurriedly followed, and the doctor said several congratulations one after another after taking the pulse, it turned out that your grandfather Wen's eldest grandson and daughter-in-law were pregnant, and the second joy was also verified."

Old lady Jane felt dry at this point, so she picked up the hot tea at hand and poured two sips.

This kind of thing is really incredible, I don't know what other people think, but Fang Mojiao has a strange feeling. After she fell seriously ill, she had a lifetime of memories, and although there were some deviations, most of the things were verified. Could the twin girls have had such an adventure, or will the people behind them have an adventure?

As for the sisters who were conjoined at birth and separated when they were five years old, she prefers to have a miracle doctor with great medical skills to heal them.

It's just that why do those people know so much about the life and family of my grandfather and Grandpa Wen? She couldn't think of a reason for this question anyway.

Unlike Fang Mojiao's thoughts, Zheng Yu always felt that there was a big conspiracy brewing outside the people behind the girl, and their purpose might mean the Southern Imperial Court in Jiangnan.

In the early days of the Great Sui Dynasty, the capital was located in the south of the Yangtze River, and later after the Battle of Yunjing, the newly succeeded Emperor Rongde moved the capital to Qinjing in the north, and the imperial court in the old capital Jiangnan was not abolished, and retained a set of official systems that were the same as those of the northern court of Qinjing.

In a sense, the Southern Imperial Court in Jiangnan can also be regarded as a country China, but there is no emperor in the Southern Imperial Court, and the most powerful official is the prime minister, followed by the three Shangshu of the Ministry of Officials, the Ministry of Households and the Ministry of War.

Among the officials with real power, except for the prime minister and the official secretary, who were served by the children of the Jiangnan family, the two Shangshu of the household department and the military department were sent by the northern court to achieve the purpose of containing each other among the officials of the northern and southern courts.

Although the Southern Imperial Court was not as valued as the Northern Imperial Court in the capital, the political affairs in the southern area were handled by the officials of the Southern Imperial Court, and then reported to the capital after processing.

The Jian family and the Wen family are both famous families in the south of the Yangtze River, and the old lady Jian was the official of the Southern Imperial Court before the official book, and the old lady Wen was the prime minister. After they arrived, Master Jian and Master Wen inherited their father's official positions respectively. Therefore, the Jian family and the Wen family are the most powerful families in Jiangnan.

If the purpose of those people is really the Southern Imperial Court, they will inevitably find ways to dig deep into the things related to the two major families.

There is such a strange thing, the men are very sensible, but the women are very interested, especially Jian Fang and Jian Yun, who are eager to know what their fate will be in the future, and can they marry the family they like as they wish?

Even Fang Mojiao wants to see with her own eyes what you can do with twin girls, and she is very curious about what this strange ability is all about. But Master Jian resolutely did not allow them to come into contact with such people, he always felt that the abnormality of things was a demon, and He Ruizhi had it. I have to say that Master Jian has the same cognition as his eldest son in this regard.

Seeing that his son and eldest grandson disagreed, Old Lady Jian said approvingly: "You are right to think so, you must be vigilant at all times, so as not to bring unwarranted disasters to the Jian family." After speaking, he said to the others: "Just listen to the boss and Brother Yun, I should have never heard of this matter, and I stopped thinking about it." ”

Old Lady Jian spoke, even Old Lady Jian had to obey, Jian Fang and Jian Yun were extremely disappointed, but the two of them didn't dare to show it in front of everyone. Fang Mojiao also had some regrets, but she could only suppress her curiosity, thinking that if she had the opportunity, she would definitely meet the pair of girls.

But things often don't develop according to people's minds, Old Lady Jian and Old Lady Wen didn't want to have a child, but the strange deeds about Bozhou Fairy Child still spread in Jiangnan, and it spread at a very fast speed. At this time, an organization called the Twin Immortal Sect suddenly appeared, and when the Bozhou Immortal Child appeared, the sect members sprung up like mushrooms after a rain.

The Twin Immortals Sect used Bozhou as its base camp and began to develop its followers to Jiangnan. After investigation, the officials of the Southern Imperial Court found that this Twin Immortal Sect was not for the purpose of accumulating wealth as they thought, and it seemed that it was really relieving the worries of the people of Limin.

They can sense that something is wrong, but they can't find out why they spend a lot of manpower and material resources. In desperation, the officials of the Southern Imperial Court suppressed the spread of the Twin Immortal Sect while reporting to the Northern Imperial Court.

At this time, the Fang Mojiao sisters and Zheng Yu, who lived in Jane's house, also put the matter of returning to Beijing on the agenda. October 19 is Mrs. Fang's 60th birthday, Fang Mojiao and Fang Moyu want to go back before their grandmother's birthday, and Zheng Yu is to return to Beijing on business.

There is a custom of autumn travel in the south of the Yangtze River, which is generally after the Mid-Autumn Festival and before the Double Ninth Festival, young men and women meet to go to the suburbs to go to the autumn season. In these more than 20 days, it is the most relaxing time for men and women in Jiangnan except for the Lantern Festival.

When Jiangnan Autumn first became popular, if a girl and a boy looked at each other during the autumn, the boy could invite his parents to go to the girl's house to propose marriage. After more than 100 years of evolution, some families who originally intended to let their children go out to play alone, and if they get along well, the happy event of the two families is not far off.

The other part is purely for fun and to enjoy the beauty of autumn. Most of these people are from big families, and they are also a group of slaves when they come out to play. The Jane family is such a family.

Fang Mojiao and Fang Moyu traveled with the cousins of the Jian family in order to enjoy the autumn scenery of the south of the Yangtze River that is different from the capital. I don't know if it's a coincidence or what, not long after they arrived in the suburbs, they met someone from the Qi family.
