Cai Niang was soon brought up by her mother-in-law, and when she saw so many people in the yard, she was so frightened that her legs fell to the ground.

She confessed to the account book in an instant, and said tremblingly, "It's the slave's fault, the slave has a mind that shouldn't be, and wants to frame Mama Juan and then rise up to replace her, the slave and maid should die!" Slaves and maids should be damned! ”

The second wife, Luo's face was cold, she slapped the handrail angrily, and was about to speak, when she heard a voice from the gate of the courtyard, "The old lady is here!" ”

Luo's expression froze, and he quickly stood up and greeted Jiang Shuli together.

The old lady was supported by Mama Li, her eyes glanced at the people in the courtyard lightly, and only after seeing Jiang Shuli did she ease her expression. Jiang Shuli went to support the old lady and said in a low voice, "Grandmother, don't be angry. ”

The old lady hummed, walked to the main seat and sat down with her support, and did not speak.

Luo Shi smiled and motioned to the maid to serve tea, "Mother, how do you bother your old man with these little things, they are all daughters-in-law, don't you see ......?"

"I still have this old bone in use," the old lady interrupted Luo's words, "Xiao Anzi, you come and tell me what the hell is going on." ”

The little Anzi that the old lady said in her mouth is Uncle Zhang, Uncle Zhang's full name is Zhang An, and he has been a small servant by the old lady's side since he was a child, and later was arranged in the outer courtyard to manage the account room because he read and read some words, and the old lady has always trusted him very much.

When Uncle Zhang heard this, he walked forward, saluted the old lady, and recounted what had happened one by one.

After listening to Uncle Zhang's words, the old lady looked down at Cai Niang, who was kneeling on the ground, and said, "We, the Marquis of Changning, can't tolerate a sinister, vicious, stupid and ignorant subordinate like you. Whoever comes, drag down the rod and punish thirty times, and sell it. ”

After that, the old lady motioned to Mama Li to dismiss everyone, turned around and entered the inner hall with Jiang Shuli's support.

Luo Shi glared at Mama Liu hatefully, and his heart went up and down, and he also followed in.

The maids quickly served the tea, and the old lady sat at the top of the seat, sipping the tea one by one, and did not say a word for a long time.

Jiang Shuli was on the side, looking at his nose and nose, and his heart was as calm as water.

But Luo Shi stood in the hall, couldn't figure out the old lady's thoughts, and didn't dare to sit down, so he lowered his head slightly and said, "Mother, my daughter-in-law has just taken over the feed, and she is not very familiar with it. I really can't imagine that Cai Niang has such a vicious mind, and her daughter-in-law will never spare her! I also asked my mother to calm her anger. ”

The old lady snorted, put the teacup on the table, and the momentum of the whole person suddenly hit like a huge wave under the dark clouds, pressing the Luo clan and a group of servants and maids standing in front of the hall to the ground unconsciously, trembling.

Jiang Shuli was slightly stunned, it was the first time she saw her grandmother use the coercion of a qi practitioner to inflict on everyone. The old lady is a seventh-level cultivator, which is a very high level in the entire Tianhao Dynasty, but she is in the inner house all the year round, and never easily oppresses others with her cultivation.

"The second daughter-in-law," the old lady said in a deep voice, "My Changning Hou Mansion has always been a clean family for decades, and the eldest daughter-in-law is also fair and just in taking care of the inner house, focusing on the overall situation. Now the eldest daughter-in-law is unwell, so you will be fed. ”

"Deal with the affairs of the upper and lower levels of the house," continued the old lady, "and it is most taboo to be selfish, to listen to and believe." My old woman's body is still useful, if you can't do it, let my old bones work and work. ”

After speaking, the old lady snorted again, withdrew the coercion, and suddenly everyone in front of the hall fell to the ground softly, drenched in sweat.

For mortals, the coercion of those in the late stage of Qi cultivation is tantamount to a thunderbolt from the sky, and that kind of oppression from the inside to the outside makes people feel terrified, and it is extremely difficult to dissipate.

Luo Shi was already so frightened that she burst into tears, her back clothes were wet, she had married into the Hou Mansion for many years, and it was the first time she felt such oppression, as if she had gone to the underworld, she trembled her lips and responded, "Mother, it's the daughter-in-law's fault, the daughter-in-law will never dare anymore." In the future, I will do my best to take care of my family affairs, so don't worry. ”

Seeing this, the old lady nodded, "In that case, you should take care of the middle feed, and that's it for today!" ”

It's night, Biyun Pavilion.

Jiang Shuli sat cross-legged on the bed, she was holding the small gray stone in her hand, thinking of her grandmother's behavior in Shuzhuyuan during the day, she couldn't help but sigh, and said to herself, "It seems that it is necessary to improve your cultivation as soon as possible." ”

Since she had Xiao Grayshi, Jiang Shuli's cultivation had been several times faster than usual, and in the past few days, she had felt that the barrier of the third layer of Qi cultivation was crumbling, and today she was stimulated by her grandmother and felt that it was time to break through.

Generally speaking, the disciples of the Jiang clan will choose to break through in Juling Xuan, first, the spiritual energy is sufficient, and secondly, the Gathering Spirit Xuan is an important place in the family, guarded by the elders of the clan who have practiced qi, and it is safe.

But there are only two opportunities to use Juling Xuan twice a month, and there are still some days before the next time you go to Juling Xuan, so Jiang Shuli took out two sets of array flags from the storage bag, and smiled at the corner of his mouth, "It's better to be cousin Ye." ”

These two sets of array flags, one is a low-level spirit gathering array, and it is said that the aura that can be gathered is not weaker than that of the spirit gathering hall. One is a defensive formation, which is said to be able to defend against the prying eyes and attacks of monks who have cultivated below the foundation building period, and if someone approaches, the formation will also warn you.

To arrange the array flag, you need to use spirit stones, which are the fairy stones that the people of the Tianhao Dynasty say.

Spirit stones are consumables, even in the world of cultivating immortals, they are also precious resources and universal currency, and in the mortal world, they are even more scarce, basically not circulating, only famous nobles will have some, to be used in an emergency.

And the storage bag that Ouyang Ye gave to Jiang Shuli was full of boxes of spirit stones, Jiang Shuli couldn't help but sigh, and she didn't know if these spirit stones were given to her, and Cousin Ye's cultivation in the immortal cultivation world would be affected.

She arranged the array flag in the room according to the annotation left by Ouyang Ye, took out two spirit stones to activate the formation, and in an instant, the aura in the room surged.

Jiang Shuli sat on the bed, took a few deep breaths, withdrew the distracting thoughts in his mind one by one, and gradually entered the realm of self-forgetfulness of the characters.

A large amount of spiritual energy was absorbed by the small gray stone between the wrists, like a five-colored rainbow pouring into Jiang Shuli's meridians.

After the aura poured into the meridians, it rushed and collided in the meridians in an instant, frantically washing the barriers of the meridians, only to see that the walls of the meridians were about to crack like spider webs, and the familiar pain rubbed on the ground to make Jiang Shuli frown.

This is a necessary process, pain, patience, perseverance, until a slight pop, the five-colored spiritual air flow is like a victorious army running happily in the meridians, and the meridians that were like broken walls and ruins before have also been restored to smoothness due to the moisture of the aura, and they are much stronger than before.

When the morning light spilled into the house again through the carved rhombic lattice window, Jiang Shuli smiled and stretched.

Practicing the third layer of qi, she succeeded.
