"Madam!!" Bi Wen, who followed Ruan's back, saw that she suddenly fell to the ground, she screamed in fright, and hurriedly reached out to help her.
From the moment she came into Ruan's line of sight, Xu Yunyao knew that this was going to be a big disaster, and seeing that Ruan was actually fainted from fright, she stared so hard that she threw the rattle away and shrank. Yan Wu glanced at the neck, and immediately jumped off the cot without even wearing shoes.
"Mother..."
The nimble little girl Fei also went to report to Tang Songnian. When she heard that his wife had passed out, Tang Songnian was shocked. How dare he delay, he hurried over and took Nguyen back to the main room.
Xu Yunyao followed him closely with her short legs, and she thought worriedly: Madam Baozi won't be scared stupid, right? What if you are frightened
Brother Zhou, who had just been in bed for a while, heard the movement, and while Xia Ma was not paying attention, he ran out in a hurry, and when he arrived, he saw his mother lying on the bed, no matter how father and the others called, he would not wake up.
"What's wrong mother?" He was so scared that he was about to cry, but no one cared about him, so even Xu Yunyao stood on tiptoes with a white face and looked at Ruan Shi, who was unconscious on the bed.
Tang Songnian called out Mrs Ruan's name while pinching people.
"Aru, Madam, are you awake? How do you feel? What else is wrong?" Tang Songnian asked in surprise.
Ruan's expression was a little dull, and it took a while for the scattered eyes to gather again.
Xu Yunyao was surprised and delighted to see her wake up. She was about to lean forward, but she was a little hesitant. She didn't know how to explain what happened in her room if Ruan asked her.
At this moment, Ruan Shi suddenly let out a scream, pushed Tang Songnian's shoes off, and rummaged through the box.
"Madam, what are you looking for?" Tang Songnian asked in confusion.
But Mrs Ruan ignored him at all, muttering in her mouth, but the movements of her hands did not stop, so she searched for a while, and then, in the sight of everyone's astonishment, she took the peace talisman she had asked for from Chaoyunguan earlier, and kept it in her collection. The transparent Jasper Buddha, and the peach wood comb on the dresser rushed out.
"Aru!"
"lady!"
"mother!"
Everyone shouted and quickly followed. Xu Yunyao was the youngest and the slowest walker, so he was the last.
Seeing that the direction Ruan was walking was her own house, she felt a little stunned in her heart, and suddenly became even more worried.
A-Wu, that stubborn idiot, won't he touch and pat here in the room again? If this time she was bumped straight again... She couldn't imagine it any longer.
She quickened her pace to catch up, and heard Tang Songnian ask, "Madam, what are you doing?"
She had a bad premonition, and took advantage of her body to get into the room. At a glance, she saw the Jade Buddha hanging around Nguyen's neck, holding a safety talisman and her peach wood comb in her hand, nervously. The ground said to the empty bed: "Come out, come out quickly, I have peach wood in my hand, if I don't come out again, I, I will chop you with this peach wood."
Tang Songnian, who was about to step forward: "..."
Brother Zhou, who was holding his father's thigh, had bright eyes, as if he had found something interesting.
Nguyen threw up the mahogany comb and looked around in full alertness, and then turned her eyes to the rattle that had fallen by the bedside. After a while, she kicked the rattle with her toes tremblingly. Except for the sound of dong dong', there was nothing strange about it.
Xu Yunyao was speechless for a while, and then looked around the room again, and soon found that Yan Wu, the idiot, was shrinking pitifully in the corner. Seeing her looking over, her expression became more and more aggrieved, but she did not dare to move.
Xu Yunyao glared at her, and was about to tell her to return to the longevity lock quickly. After waiting for a while, Mrs Ruan, who didn't notice anything unusual, just turned her head, noticed the direction of her gaze, and shivered as she held the peach wood comb. On the chest, a pair of darker and brighter eyes opened the boss, his face was pale, his expression was indescribable horror, but he still rushed towards where Yan Wu was: "It's here, right? here!"
As he spoke, he smashed the peach wood comb towards Yan Wu fiercely. Xu Yunyao almost didn't cry out, but he could only watch the peach wood comb pass through Yan Wu's body and then fall. on the ground.
Yan Wu was so frightened that she rolled and crawled to another place and shrank, tears streaming down her face, for fear of crying out loud, she could only bite the small handkerchief hard, looking at her with fearful and aggrieved eyes from time to time. To Xu Junyao.
Xu Yunyao wanted to laugh a little, but she hurriedly held it back.
"Have you gone? Baoya, is she gone?" Ruan asked in a trembling voice.
Xu Yunyao dared to aim at random, staring at her innocently with her black eyes, and in her heart she ordered Yan Wu to return to the longevity lock quickly.
"Madam, what happened?" Tang Songnian looked at his wife's series of strange actions in surprise, and finally couldn't help but stepped forward and asked, pulling her hand.
Ruan Shi immediately snuggled into his arms and whispered, "Husband, there are unclean things in this room, and the rattle just floated in the air and made a sound by itself."
Thinking of the scene just now, Ruan's face turned pale again, and her eyes became more and more frightened.
"Mother, is this it?" Brother Zhou walked over to pick up the rattle and shook it. The 'dong dong dong' sounded again in the room, which made Ruan scream and rushed over. He grabbed the rattle from his son's hand and threw it away.
"Don't touch it, do you hear? Don't touch it!" She felt like she was going crazy, and yelled at her son.
Zhou Ge'er was frightened by her, and flattened his mouth in grievance. He didn't cry in the end, only dragged the final sound of 'oh'.
Tang Songnian rubbed his forehead and patiently said to Mrs Ruan: "...this house is where Baoya is, and it is said that children have the cleanest eyes and can see many things that adults can't see. If there is anything, Baoya It must be…”
"No, no, no, I really saw it, really, I won't lie to you..." Seeing that he didn't believe him, Ruan Shi tugged at his cuff, interrupted him, and then pointed at Bi Wen again. "By the way, Biwen! Biwen came in with me, and she must see it too."
Bi Wen replied hesitantly: "When I came in, except for the girl sitting on the bed turning over her small suitcase, the rattle that Madam mentioned fell to the ground. There was nothing unusual about it!"
"No, no, that rattle is clearly floating in the air and making a sound, why didn't you see it?" Ruan Shi was anxious.
"I really didn't see it!" Bi Wen replied.
"Impossible, how can you not see it? It's clearly there, yes, that place, just like this, just like this, it sounds like someone is holding it and shaking it."
"Madam, Xu is..." Tang Songnian naturally didn't believe this strange power and chaos, and was about to say that she was too tired to see her eyes, but Ruan Shi suddenly rushed towards Xu Yunyao. Kneading here and there on her face and body, then without saying a word, I stuffed the peace charm on her body into her pocket, and put the jade Buddha around her neck, and finally hugged her tightly in her arms. , murmured, "Poor baby, must be frightened! Don't be afraid, mother is here, no one can hurt my baby!"
Xu Yunyao was almost breathless by her strangulation. He was struggling to hear her words again, and he moved, and suddenly there was a complicated feeling in his heart that he couldn't tell.
This bun lady is really...
It was Tang Songnian who felt distressed for his daughter, and hurriedly said, "Madam, you are too tight, let go."
But Mrs Ruan didn't seem to be able to hear him, so she ignored him, hugged Xu Yunyao and hurriedly left the room, and said in a timid voice as she walked, "I can't live in that room anymore, I can't let it go. Clean stuff scares my daughter, can't, can't…”
Xu Yunyao felt that she was about to suffocate, but she felt that the woman holding her was obviously scared to death, but the desire to protect her daughter was so strong, so strong that it made her nose sore, and she didn't know it in her heart. It added a rare softness to the ground, and I didn't even have the thought of pretending to cry and pretend to be afraid.
Only very quickly, she paid the price for this moment of soft-heartedness.
Nguyen Shi ignored how Tang Songnian and others persuaded her, took her daughter back to the main room, and rummaged through boxes and cabinets to find a pile of evil spirits and force her to stuff her body.
After a long while, Xu Yunyao blew a soft breath, and the piece of talisman paper pasted on her forehead made a small 'plopping' sound.
She lowered her head and looked at the jade objects such as the jade Pixiu, jade Buddha, and jade unicorn hanging around her neck, and she counted as many as eight. Looking at a large gold ingot in his pocket, he suddenly wanted to cry but had no tears.
Mrs. Soft Bun, did you treat Ben Gong as an 'evil' to 'save'
Brother Zhou, who was following him, laughed until he fell down. After laughing for a while, he waved his little handkerchief and jumped around her: "Baoya is back, Baoya is back..."
Xu Yunyao: "..."
Mr. Tang, you really have enough!
Tang Songnian stroked his forehead, looked at Nguyen who had fallen into a mad state, and sighed, unable to say anything.
Xu Yunyao thought that she would temporarily act as a 'display stand for warding off evil spirits', and she would be fine when Ruan calmed down. Shi hugged and got into the carriage towards Chaoyun View.
Tang Songnian was not at ease and escorted them away in person.
Ruan Shi forcefully asked her daughter to follow her example and bow to the statue of Sanqing, and hugged her to find Taoist Xuanqing in Guanli. Knowing that Taoist Xuanqing was wandering away and had not returned, she reluctantly asked for another in Guanli. A mysterious passage chief bestowed a peace talisman, a lighted amulet, and other objects.
Tang Songnian followed behind her helplessly, looking at her daughter who had been stuffed with a bunch of safety amulets and protective instruments, and couldn't help but smile.
Ruan Shi was not at ease, and ordered the servants to pick a large bag full of grapefruit leaves from the grapefruit tree in Guanli, and reluctantly left under the surprised eyes of the Taoists and pilgrims.
Back at the house, Ruan Shi hurriedly boiled water with pomelo leaves, and regardless of Xu Yunyao's struggle, she was taken into the clean room and threw into the bathtub.
Outside the clean room, Tang Songnian sat side by side with Zhou Ge'er and his son on the long couch, looked at Xu Yunyao, who fluttered his limbs trying to break free from his mother's hands, looked at each other, and then sighed in unison.
Poor baby!
"Smelly, I don't like it, don't wash..." The little girl's milky protest came from the room.
Immediately after that was Ruan's somewhat grim voice: "Where is it smelly? Children tend to be picky, come here!"
"No, no, I don't want to…"
"crash..."
The little girl's unwilling struggle was quickly silenced by the sound of water.
The father and son outside the house sighed in unison again.
Baby is so pathetic!
Ruan Shi meticulously washed her daughter back and forth from head to toe twice, then wiped off the water and put on her clothes. Only then did she put the little girl whose face was blushing from the hot water into Tang Songnian's arms, and held her hands with a sullen face. He took a pot of grapefruit water to Xu Yunyao's house, sprinkled it inside and out, and finally tied the grapefruit leaves with red rope and hung it at the door, and he was relieved.
After thinking for a while, she hurriedly went back into the house, looked back and forth on the little girl's little bed, found the longevity lock that the little girl was wearing, washed it in the grapefruit water, and wiped it clean again. Then take it back to the main house.
Xu Yunyao, who was tucked into Tang Songnian's arms, had given up struggling. Regardless, Mrs. Steamed Bun was always soft and easy to talk, but once she became stubborn, let alone her, even the old man could do nothing to her.
Brother Zhou disliked the smell of grapefruit leaves on his sister's body, pinched his nose and sat far away.
Xu Yunyao was too lazy to pay attention to him, not to mention Sir Xiao Tang, even she herself disliked the smell on her body.
Tang Songnian couldn't help laughing when she saw her resigned appearance. During the laughter, Mrs. Ruan walked in and put the long-life lock in her hand back on her daughter's neck.
Xu Yunyao smelled that the longevity lock also smelled like grapefruit water on her body, and was surprised: Mrs. Baozi wouldn't wash the longevity lock with grapefruit water, right? Does that stupid Awu still exist
Ruan Shi didn't know what she was thinking, so she stuffed the peace talismans she had asked for from Chaoyun Guan into her pockets, one on the left and the other on the right. She also put a jade Pixiu of high quality and transparent jade into the small sachet, and then put it in her pocket. A small sachet was also stuffed into her.
Xu Yunyao wrinkled her nose dejectedly, and began to reflect on herself rarely.
Yan Wu is a female ghost that only she can see, but in just one day, because of her own negligence, Yan Wu was hit straight, although the other party could not see the existence of Yan Wu, It can be said that Wu's behavior is enough to frighten people.
Brother Yao was still a child. Even if he told the truth about what he saw at the time, no one would believe him, but Nguyen was different. Just by looking at her half-crazy behavior, she could see that although she couldn't see it. Yan Wu, but already suspected that there is such a 'thing' in the house.
And all this, in the final analysis, is her negligence.
But why was she so negligent
Xu Yunyao frowned.
In her last life, she was able to climb from a little palace maid to Concubine Shu. She was not a kind and soft-hearted person, and she never let go of her vigilance when dealing with people and things. It was like yesterday's low-end mistake. Impossible to happen.
But what's going on now
"Is the little girl scared?" Seeing that the daughter in his arms was silent, Tang Songnian pinched her little nose amusingly.
Xu Yunyao raised her eyes and glanced at him, and then looked at Brother Zhou who was pitifully carried by Ruan into the clean room to bathe, and she was instantly blessed.
Yes, that's what happened!
The old ancestors said, 'Born in trouble, die in peace'. In her past life, there were many malicious people around her. No matter when she was a slave or a concubine of the emperor later, there was never any conspiracy, frame-up, or blood. She has been far away from her, so she needs to maintain a high degree of vigilance at all times, because she knows that if she is a little slack, countless dark arrows will be shot at her.
But what about this lifetime
The old enemy, the old man, became her biological father, and naturally it was impossible to oppose her again. And Tang Huaizhou, the sinister son of the old man, is the elder brother of one of her mother's compatriots. Although he always likes to frame her from time to time, it is just a small fight between children, which will not cause any harm to her at all. .
The two 'spears' in the previous life became 'shields', and there was no conspiracy or frame-up by her side, only the gentle and loving Mrs. Baozi, and the old husband's mother who was somewhat unclear but also really loved her granddaughter. They all treated her with the greatest tolerance and love, and unknowingly disintegrated her defenses and vigilance.
Her eyes flashed slightly, and she pursed her lips, feeling an unprecedented crisis in her heart.
No, no, she can't go on like this. She is the one who wants to be the queen. If she is spoiled as an idiot who doesn't know anything and knows nothing, it goes without saying that she will be the mother of the phoenix. Enterprising' maids can kill her!
She clenched her small fist and made a decision in her heart again - in her last life, thousands of troops had rushed over, and she couldn't die in the Tang Mansion's honeypot in this life, it would be too embarrassing!
"Bao Ya!" Ruan Shi's somewhat soft voice came.
"Hey, here we come!" She responded tenderly, the precautions and vigilance belonging to the 'future queen' vanished without a trace in an instant, only a chubby little girl struggled to the ground from her father's arms, happily facing towards She ran away with her loving mother.
