In the afternoon, Sanniang was writing in the study, and when she saw Bai Guo coming in with tea, she stayed in the study and refused to leave, Sanniang knew that she had something to say but saw Bai Ying staring at the side and didn't dare to disturb her, so she pretended not to see it, and only left her aside.

In less than a quarter of an hour, I saw Bai Guo scratching his throat and scratching his cheeks, and he stopped talking a few times, and when the words came to his mouth, Bai Ying glared back, just embarrassed.

Sanniang smiled secretly in her heart, put away the gesture, put the bamboo pole in her hand on the pen stand, and looked at the wild grass of the dragon and phoenix dance she had just written down with satisfaction.

The sheep is soft and sharp, and the words written are also weak and boneless, and the emphasis is on "mellow and subtle, not revealing oneself". But Sanniang has been practicing words with her grandfather who was born in the military since she was a child, and the pen is always more than strong, and the softness is insufficient.

Seeing that she had written a little plump and soft about the wild grass, Sanniang was satisfied, looked up and smiled: "Okay, let her say anything if you have anything." I'm afraid the floor of the study will be worn out by her. ”

Bai Guo hurriedly stepped forward, handed Sanniang a towel to wipe her hands, and glanced at the words on the bookcase.

"The slave is not in a hurry, the slave waits for the young lady to finish drawing the talisman."

“……”

"Okay, you can say it." Sanniang pressed her eyebrows and walked to the couch and sat down, taking the tea handed by Bai Ying.

"Miss, a mother-in-law in Qiuheng Courtyard was beaten thirty boards and wanted to be kicked out of the house." Bai Guo whispered in Sanniang's ear.

Sanniang remembered that when she was in Sun's room this morning, Liuniang talked about the mother-in-law who got up at night and knocked over her melon and fruit plate.

"But, something happened when the woman was about to be carried out!" Bai Guo's tone was a little excited, but also faintly fearful.

Sanniang drank tea with her hand. Look at the ginkgo seeds.

"What are you selling in front of Miss, if you have something to say, don't beg for it." Bai Ying frowned and glared at Bai Guo.

Bai Guo hurriedly said: "The slave maid has been watching outside just now. Seeing that the woman was about to be carried out, she quietly followed with those little maids, wanting to see if anyone would come to pick her up, if not, we would scrape together a little money and ask a medical center that was willing to accept people to carry her there. It's pitiful that she's old. ”

Speaking of this, Bai Guo swallowed his saliva: "But I just walked outside the second gate." The woman suddenly convulsed, and black blood flowed from her eyes, mouth, nose, and ears, and then she was unconscious. ”

Sanniang frowned when she heard this, and Bai Ying was even more frightened.

"Those mothers-in-law who carry people, who are usually arrogant, are so frightened that they throw people to the ground and hide. The steward refused to come and carry people no matter how much he urged him. They said that the woman had fallen into an evil spirit, and that she had been taken by a ghost, and that before the slave and maid returned to the yard, the woman was still lying on the ground, and no one dared to clean up the blood on the ground. ”

Sanniang waved her hand and interrupted Bai Guo's words: "Who else have you mentioned this matter to?" ”

Bai Guo was stunned for a moment, and then said: "When the slave saw that something was wrong, she hurriedly ran back to tell the young lady about you." ”

Sanniang nodded: "You remember, this is never to be mentioned to anyone again." Don't talk to people about 'evil spirits', 'ghosts' and the like, even if someone comes to ask you, you have to say you haven't seen it, you know? ”

Bai Guo saw the serious expression on Sanniang's face, and quickly nodded and said, "The slave knows." ”

"Miss told you for your own good. Don't talk too much outside. Otherwise, if you are pursued over there, you will be in for a catastrophe. Bai Ying also taught Bai Guo a few words, and he was still not at ease after speaking. slipped out of the ginkgo again to adjust it well, and taught it.

This time, Sanniang looked at the depressed Bai Guo, but did not stop Bai Ying, although she liked Bai Guo's temperament, but after all, it was not suitable for such an environment, and it was for her good to teach her a lesson.

On this day, when it was close to dinner, the sky suddenly darkened, the dark clouds in the sky rolled, the wind blew the rice paper under the paperweight "brush" flying, Sanniang's study even if she stood by the window could not read the words on the book clearly, Bai Zhi quickly closed the open window, and found the candlestick to light the red candle.

Only then did the blue and white floral pattern eight-sided candlestick be placed on the table, and the sound of raindrops hitting the ground sounded outside.

"Miss, add a cloak." Bai Ying shook off a pale green lake silk cloak in her hand and brought it to Sanniang.

Sanniang shook her head: "I'll add it later." ”

Walked to the window, gently pushed the window open a crack to let in the wind, I didn't want the raindrops to immediately drill into the room as if they had eyes, Sanniang's hands were wet, so she had to close the window again.

"If the young lady feels bored, it is better to go and sit in the hall, and the slave will open the thin bamboo curtain on the door a little." Bai Zhi hurriedly stepped forward and asked.

Sanniang thought about it and nodded in response, it was really uncomfortable to be stuffy on a rainy summer night.

This rain was a night, and on the second day, when Sanniang went to Songling Courtyard to ask Sun for peace, although the sky was still dark, but fortunately, the rain was not falling.

When she walked to the road leading to the second gate, Sanniang subconsciously glanced at the second gate. But after all, it was far away, and I couldn't see anything, but it rained so heavily last night that even if there were blood stains on the ground, it was washed away by the heavy rain.

When Sanniang walked into Sun's room, Sun was leaning on the couch and closing his eyes to recuperate, but his face looked much haggard than usual. ”

Sanniang turned her head and saw the third sister and brother in the second room and Wang Ji sitting around the big eight immortal table in the middle of the main room. The table was covered with cut-out white paper. Licorice and Gansong were waiting for Wang Rui and Wang Ji to paste small bags with paste, and Yuan Niang and Wang Zhang were burying their heads in something.

Sanniang answered softly, and walked to the table with Wang Jing.

It turns out that "coating" is the filial piety to be burned to the ancestors every year during the Midyear Festival. Put the tin foil money in a pasted white sealed bag, and then write the names of the ancestors on the sealed bag, and then pile up and burn it in one place on the night of the Midyear Festival.

Sanniang hadn't written these before, so she gently picked up a sealed bag written by Yuan Niang and looked at it, only to see that it was written in block letters, "Therefore, Xian Yan enclosed Mrs. Wang's grandmother Dai's old lady to enjoy it in the dark."

"Erlang and I have copied all the names of our ancestors, third sister, you can just follow the above writing." Yuan Niang raised her head, pointed to the remaining dozen or so sealed bags lined up next to her and waited for the ink to dry, and said softly.

Sanniang smiled and nodded, if she could write it, she wouldn't worry about making a mistake.

It's just that the Wang family is flourishing, and there are many ancestors to worship, and even if these brothers and sisters work together, it will take several days to write.

"This year, I want to burn more 'wrapping', my brothers have to take care of their studies and can't be delayed, your sisters write in this house in the morning during the day, go back to their respective yards to rest in the afternoon, and then discuss two people a day in the evening, and sleep in the evening for a while." Sun said lightly.

Why come at night, and not in the afternoon to write and rest at night? Sanniang respectfully responded on her face, but she was puzzled in her heart.

At this time, the girl outside said goodbye, and Siniang, Wuniang and Liuniang also came.

On weekdays, Siniang and Liuniang came very early, maybe Liuniang's words yesterday provoked Sun's anger, so that she was still a little worried in her heart, and she came late today. After Liuniang came in, she glanced at Sun on the couch, followed Siniang and Wuniang and stepped forward to kowtow to Sun with some trepidation.

"Get up, Liuniang come to grandmother." Seeing Liuniang like this, Sun thought that he was angry and scared his granddaughter yesterday, so he deliberately softened his voice and beckoned to Liuniang lovingly.

Liuniang's face was happy, and she quickly got up and sat down next to Sun, snuggling softly in her arms. She originally thought that her grandmother didn't like her anymore, and she was very scared, but it turned out that her grandmother still liked her the most.

Sun touched Liuniang's head, and was taking her hand to ask her if she had breakfast this morning, when he heard a crisp sound of "jingle bell", and looked down to see Liuniang's hand and neck with a bracelet tied with a silver bell on the peace festival with a red rope.

Sun's eyes were frightened, and he pushed Liu Niang off the couch.

"Quickly remove the evil thing from her hand for me!"

Sun's shout was very poignant, which frightened the brothers and sisters on the Eight Immortals table in a daze, and Liuniang, who was pushed down by Sun, staggered and fell to the ground, and the pain from the right hand supporting her body made her no longer care that this was in Sun's room, and she cried loudly with a "wow".

"Miss Six." Mama Chang hurriedly stepped forward to help Liu Niang up, and Liu Niang held her right hand with her left hand and cried out of breath.

Seeing Liuniang like this, Sun couldn't help but feel a little guilty when he thought that his hand was indeed heavier just now, so he stood up and wanted to step forward to take a look, but as soon as his eyes touched the red rope on Liuniang's hand, Sun's outstretched hand froze.

And when Liuniang saw Sun reaching out to her, she also subconsciously hid in Mama Chang's arms.

Sun turned his head and instructed Mama Chang: "Quickly untie the rope in her hand for me." ”

Mama Chang hurriedly hugged Liuniang and coaxed her, while untying her from the red rope and bell on her hand.

But Liuniang just injured her hand, and her wrist was already red and swollen at the moment, thicker than usual, and Chang Mama cried out that it hurt as soon as she touched her hand.

Chang Mama was so anxious that she was sweating profusely, and Liuniang cried heartbreakingly, and Sun's room was in chaos for a while.

Sanniang glanced at the scissors used to cut paper on the table, took it and walked it to Mama Chang and handed it to her. Mama Chang hurriedly thanked her and carefully cut the rope on Liuniang's wrist.

"Jingle bell" made a crisp sound, and the red rope tied to the small silver bell fell to the ground, which was a crisp and beautiful sound, but it made Sun's heart furious. ()
