At dawn, Mother Zhao outside the mourning hall let out a long sigh.
"It's unlucky to choose us to guard the spirit."
Nanny Yang yawned, with an impatient expression on her face, "That's right, the younger you are, the more unlucky you are. Miss Jiu is only sixteen years old. I heard that her eyes were still open when she was fished out of the lake. It's scary to think about it." .”
"You didn't see it, the old lady turned pale with anger when she knew about it, and she didn't even want to do the funeral. If she wasn't afraid that her ghost would linger, she might have been carried out to bury her when she found out yesterday morning."
Under the eaves of the porch, a mourning lamp was pale, and Madam Zhao and Madam Zhao were sitting on the low stool at the door, the paper money basin at their feet had long since lost their anger.
Inside the house, there was a coffin bed alone.
The girl on the coffin bed was wearing a plain white shroud, her eyes were closed, her face was blue and gray, and she had died for a long time.
However, if one looks at his face, one can find that his facial features are extraordinarily delicate and graceful.
"When she was sent here by the big house, the old lady said that she was an unlucky person. Otherwise, why would you think that she has been disliked all these years, but now it's good, the old lady is relieved when she dies."
Zhao mama rubbed her sore back, and continued, "She killed her parents, and I wouldn't want to raise her, isn't that the first wife's taboo? Now that the person is dead, the second wife of the Qin family will take care of her." It’s absolutely unprecedented, and I don’t know what Dafang will say about it.”
Nanny Yang shook her head, "What else can I say? She jumped into the lake to die, how can you blame Sanfang?"
He sneered again as he spoke, "It's really ridiculous. The son of Huo Zhifu's family looked down on her, and she went to jump into the lake. When word spread, I don't know how the people of Jinzhou City arrange our Zhongyonghou's Mansion..."
"That's not true." Zhao Mama hurriedly added, "This is why the old lady is angry.
It was the end of summer and the beginning of autumn, and Nanny Yang couldn't stand the night cold and folded her collar, looked towards the gate of the courtyard again, and snorted, "That damned girl Fu Ling didn't come over yet? She must have passed out from crying at that moment." It’s just pretending! It must be because you don’t want to guard the spirit!”
Zhao Nanny said gloatingly, "Fu Ling is usually loyal, after all, she has been by her side since she was a child, but now that her young lady is dead, she has to find another way out."
"What is the way out? After serving Miss Jiu for so many years, who would want her from the master of the family? Most likely they want to sell her." As she spoke, Nanny Yang raised her eyes to look in the direction of the coffin bed. Her eye sockets trembled suddenly.
"Did you see it?!"
Grabbing Nanny Zhao, Nanny Yang asked in horror.
This question made Mother Zhao suddenly stand up in fright, "What did you see, don't scare me—"
"Hand... why did I watch her move her hand..."
Rubbing her eyes, Zhao Momo took a hard look at the coffin bed, then glared at Yang Momo angrily, "Where did you do something? It must be your eyes!"
Nanny Yang also took a few more glances, and then let out a long breath.
"I read it wrong, I was really tired after guarding for so long."
Nanny Yang said, frowning and looking to the west, "No, I can't let Fu Ling hide, I'll go and arrest her, she even said during the day that she would go with her young lady! Hmph, since she is so loyal, It's time to mourn for her young lady! She can't be cheap—"
After Yang Nanny finished speaking, she walked towards the gate of the courtyard. Seeing that she was left alone, Zhao Nanny felt a little scared, and wanted to call Yang Nanny to stop, but wanted Fuling to come over and rest by herself. This hesitation, Yang Nanny already walked out.
Although the sky was slightly bright, there was a dead person lying in the room. Even though Zhao Mama had lived half her life, she couldn't help the chills down her spine at this moment. She glanced at the coffin bed again, and turned her head away hastily.
As soon as Nanny Zhao turned her head, Qin Wan's eyes opened.
The gray death on her face has not yet dissipated, and her eyes are as dark as an abyss. She is looking straight at the roof, and there is a glimmer of awe-inspiring light in her eyes for a moment...
But soon, her eyes completely darkened.
She had become conscious a few hours ago. She thought it was a strange dream on her deathbed, but as time went on, she gradually realized that it was not a dream at all.
It's not a dream, what is that
Zhongyonghou's mansion, Qin family, second bedroom, third bedroom, orphan, ninth lady, jumping into the lake...
She doesn't know about the second bedroom, the third bedroom and the ninth lady, but she knows about the Qin family in Zhongyonghou's mansion.
The Great Zhou had been established for more than two hundred years, and there were countless princely families. However, there was only one Zhongyonghou Mansion in the entire Great Zhou Dynasty, and the family name of the Zhongyonghou Mansion was Qin, which was considered a famous family in the capital. Is this really the Zhongyonghou Mansion of the Great Zhou Dynasty
She wasn't sure about this question, but it was an ironclad fact that she, a person who should have died, came back to life.
All kinds of past father's love and mother's love flashed through her mind, and her eyes suddenly turned red.
My father has been in charge of the prison all his life to clean up the grievances of others, but he doesn't want to end up with the tragic death of the whole family!
Seeing that the tears were about to well up, she gritted her teeth and forced the tears back.
Instead, there was a stern light that sent chills down one's spine.
It seems that God knows that she will die with peace!
Just as she was thinking about it, there was a sudden sound of hurried footsteps in the yard, and Mammy Zhao under the eaves suddenly raised her head, only to see the face of Nanny Yang who had returned!
"Old Zhao, that... that dead girl... really followed..."
Zhao Nanny stood up, "What? What followed?"
Nanny Yang was about to cry, "It's Fu Ling, she hanged herself! She hanged herself in the west backyard!"
"What?!" Zhao Momo's eyes widened, "She...how could...how..."
The image of Poria hanging on the beam was still floating in front of Nanny Yang, and her voice trembled when she spoke, "I... I'll ask her to come over to watch the spirit, who would have thought that she would be seen hanging on the beam as soon as the door was opened, she is a The protector must be because her master is dead and she has no thoughts of life. I saw everyone froze...Old Zhao, go to the front yard and say something, two of them died at once, this..."
There are old people and elders in the mansion, it is unlucky for a junior to die, and now even her servants are dead, such bad news, Madam Yang is not willing to report, the masters heard the news when they got up, they must eat Hang down.
The death of a maidservant is not a big deal, and Zhao Mama has her own shrewdness, and immediately calmed down after the initial shock.
She took a step forward and said, "It's just a servant. If you die, you will die. If you live, you will not end well. Just pretend that you didn't go to the West Backyard and you don't know about it. This point is about to rise. Let others find out after a while. It's fine." ?”
Nanny Yang was so flustered that she trembled when she heard the words, "That's all right, just as you said... You don't know, it's too scary. I just looked at this short-lived ghost, and I ran into a hanged man, what do you say?" Will Poria's ghost come to me..."
After saying this, Nanny Yang walked back and forth in the yard in fear. She had heard a lot of stories about hanged ghosts, and she couldn't get rid of the image of Fuling hanging in sackcloth in her mind.
"Where is Poria?"
Suddenly, a hoarse voice sounded from inside the door.
When Nanny Yang heard this, she thought it was Nanny Zhao who was asking, but soon her heart froze, how could Nanny Zhao not know where Poria is
Thinking of this, Nanny Yang stopped and looked towards the source of the sound.
Seeing this, Nanny Yang screamed!
