Tang Xi felt quite baffled, even if she tore down a talisman handed down by her grandfather, her eyes would not be dazzled, and she would go to another place, and there would be another memory of someone else in her mind.
A while ago, because she was bored, she downloaded a lot of goofy romance novels on the Internet to read, and there happened to be a book in which there was also a female supporting character named Tang Xi. In a novel, replacing the original Tang Xi
According to the memory of the original owner, this should be the scene at the beginning of the novel—
Sixteen years ago, the mother of the original owner gave birth in a city hospital. Because the baby was born prematurely and was weak, she was sent to an incubator. Unfortunately, a fire broke out in the hospital. She was taken back to the Tang family to become a daughter, but the real daughter Tang Xi died in the fire because her adoptive parents died in the fire. Her grandmother brought her up with the fire compensation, and she was found by the Tang family sixteen years later because of an accident. Take it back to Jiangnan City.
Tang Xi pursed her lips, dissatisfied. Can't you wear it earlier? She must stay far away so as not to provoke this wonderful family!
"Miss Tang Xi, please go this way." The nanny leading the way straightened her waist and raised her chin slightly. Although she used polite words, her tone was blunt, and every sound revealed a strong sense of contempt.
"Oh." Tang Xi replied boredly, and walked a few steps faster, but when his gaze passed over the fountain, he froze suddenly and stopped in his steps.
I saw a wet water ghost slowly floating out of the pool covered with pure white exquisite tiles. His skin was soaked pale and wrinkled, his eyes without whites stared at him rigidly, and his long black hair looked like seaweed. Half of the pool was paved, and the fountain was still spraying water and grass. Just like this, its lower body was submerged in the water, and its upper body was lying on the edge of the pool. The smelly water droplets flowed down the two skinny arms to the ground on the bank of the pool.
"Miss Tang Xi, the main house is just ahead, don't keep everyone waiting." The nanny turned her head dissatisfied.
Tang Xi didn't hear it, she was just curious. In her original world, due to the expansion of the city and the existence of Taoism, demons and ghosts have almost disappeared in the city, and it is only possible to catch one or two in the deep mountains and old forests. But here... This pool seems to be the home of water ghosts
The nanny frowned in disgust, followed her gaze, and couldn't help being a little surprised. She walked over, touched the tiles by the pool, and muttered, "Why is it leaking again? Didn't someone repair the pool last week?" what?"
"..." Tang Xi twitched the corners of her mouth, watched the nanny reaching out and digging in the water ghost's head, thinking whether to tell her, this behavior should be impolite.
"Forget it, let's call someone to fix it tomorrow." The nanny shuddered, feeling a little uncomfortable for no reason, and when she faced Tang Xi again, she changed back to her original proud face, "Tang Miss Xi, let's go."
The Tang family is the richest man in Jiangnan City. This villa is so big that it takes ten minutes to walk from the gate to the main house.
Tang Xi is absolutely loveless. The water ghost in the fountain, the hanged ghost under the locust tree, and the swinging swing are not because of the wind, but because there is a female ghost in a red wedding dress sitting on it. The cat looks petite, but its tail is two meters long and has a black mist...
Are all Taoists in this world dead? To have so many ghosts wandering freely outside, sharing a house with living people!
However, from the way she looks around, in the eyes of the nanny, she looks like a bumpkin from a small country place, who can't stand on the stage and embarrasses the Tang family!
Finally walking into the lobby, all the Tang family members were there except Tang Jing who was still in class, father Tang Zhenying, mother Yang Wenqiu, and the original owner's two elder brothers, the eldest Tang Zhan, who had graduated from university and entered the Tang family company, the second eldest Tang Zhao, A sophomore student at Jiangnan University. In addition, there was a man in his thirties next to him in a suit and leather shoes. After thinking about it, Tang Xi found out the identity of that man from the book. It was Zhang Zixiu, Tang Zhenying's personal assistant.
Looking around the hall, Tang Xi frowned slightly, instinctively disliking this place.
The pure white marble floor is radiant, and the gorgeous crystal lamps are shining brightly. The spiral staircase on both sides leads to the second floor, and even the four supporting pillars are in the style of coiling dragons.
This is the luxury of the top rich, but... it looks too cold, not like a home.
"This is Xixi? Come here quickly!" Yang Wenqiu stood up excitedly when he saw her.
Tang Xi stood still. When I was reading a book, I looked at ten lines at a glance, only read the plot, and didn't pay attention to many details, but when I was in the scene, I felt a slight sense of disobedience.
To say that Yang Wenqiu has sincere feelings for his lost and recovered biological daughter, but her hair and makeup will take at least two hours to do. Are you willing to spend two hours on makeup, but only send a driver and a nanny to pick her up? Tang Zhenying next to him looked at his watch every half a minute, and Assistant Zhang also looked eager and didn't dare to rush, making Tang Xi even more speechless. Just leave if you have something to do, anyway, your heart is not here, why force yourself to sit and pretend to be affectionate.
Needless to say, the two brothers Tang Zhan and Tang Zhao, one was typing with his laptop on, the other was playing games with his mobile phone with his head down, neither of them took a look at his sister who had finally returned.
Tang Xi only felt a tinge of grievance and anger in her heart, which was not her emotion, but the original owner's. She sighed, feeling worthless for the original owner.
In the book, Tang Xi spends sleepless nights learning all the knowledge completely different from her sixteen years of life, carefully pleasing everyone in this family, and only wants to integrate into this family one day, but no matter how hard she tries, they Still dislike her for embarrassing the Tang family. In their hearts, Tang Jing was the Miss Tang family who made them proud. However, couldn't it be that Tang Xi didn't want to be the daughter of a famous family, receive the best education and grow up in the most privileged life
You can wear the latest dress released at Milan Fashion Week and play the piano gracefully. Who wants to work several jobs a day just to earn living expenses for the next month.
"Okay, Xixi has already gone home, and the family will have a long life in the future." Tang Zhenying stood up and patted his wife on the shoulder, and said, "My company has something to do, I have to go there right away, Azhao, you go to pick up Jing in the afternoon." When Jing comes back, the family will have dinner together in the evening."
"Got it." Tang Zhao didn't lift his head.
"Come on, Xixi, mom will show you your room." Yang Wenqiu took Tang Xi's hand affectionately and led her to the second floor.
Tang Xi's body stiffened for a moment, then slowly relaxed, looking back as she went upstairs.
Tang Zhenying took Zhang Zixiu out in a hurry, and he could vaguely see a black mass lying on his back.
It's just an unlucky ghost, maybe something happened to the company, but that unlucky ghost should be just formed, it won't cause much damage, and it won't hurt the bones, so there is no need to deal with it.
"Xixi, look, this place was arranged by my mother, do you like it?" Yang Wenqiu pushed open a door on the second floor.
Tang Xi's eyes hurt.
Good... powder!
Pink-toned curtains and furniture, a huge princess bed, and dozens of Hello Kitty dolls, large and small, several of which are limited editions, with no tags cut.
On the other side, Yang Wenqiu opened the closet, and pushed her over like offering a treasure: "All the clothes of the current season are prepared for you, throw away the old garbage."
Tang Xi raised her forehead. All kinds of small skirts in this cabinet have special counter tags, which are very valuable at first glance. However, this kind of macaron pink color and Lolita tutu skirt are particularly attractive. A girl like the original owner who grew up in a small mountain village lacked confidence. No wonder her classmates would laugh at her when she wore this kind of clothes. Especially when there is an elegant and generous Tang Jing next to her for comparison.
"Come and try it!" Yang Wenqiu casually took out a small light blue lace dress and compared it to her, then looked at her cheap shirt and jeans and frowned in disgust.
"I'm tired, I want to rest for a while." Tang Xi said quickly.
"Okay." Yang Wenqiu's interest was poured into cold water, and he also cooled down. He put his clothes on the bed, "Dinner at six, remember to change into new clothes and come downstairs."
"I see." Tang Xi obediently responded, sent the person away, and immediately closed the door.
However, after scanning the room full of girlish hearts, he rolled his eyes, put the schoolbag on his shoulders in the corner, pulled out the chair and sat down in front of the desk, and opened the drawer—
"Crack!" The drawer was pushed back heavily.
"Boom!"
"Boom!"
The drawer shook, as if frightened, and made a strange sound.
Tang Xi stared at the drawer and didn't speak for a while.
"Boom, boom, boom!" The drawer jumped even more urgently.
Tang Xi fiercely opened the drawer again, squeezed two fingers, and pulled out a small puppet. With his right hand, he quickly drew a talisman in the air, and smashed it into the puppet's body.
"Pfft." The puppet fell on the table and stopped moving, like an ordinary toy, the kind with a particularly rough workmanship.
"Really, what kind of world is this? Where are there so many ghosts!" Tang Xi threw the puppet back into the drawer, slammed the drawer hard, and sealed the triple seal.
Obviously the novel is a bloody romance drama, and there is no mention of supernatural events at all. She is just curious, if these ghosts existed in the first place, how did the Tang family in the original book grow up so safely
