Nanny Kou is the person supported by Aunt Si, and she finally reported everything that happened in Xiahong Courtyard to Aunt Si in detail.

Madam Kou didn't know the inside story about the Longevity Lock, so she naturally didn't understand what kind of puzzlement and surprise was hidden in Aunt Si's suddenly wrinkled eyebrows.

Inside the veil in Mother Kou's hand was the longevity lock that had been dug out.Aunt Si picked it up and looked at it again and again, wondering, "Where did this thing come from?"

"The servant wants to say this too!"

Kou Momo was next to her, and she said in a low voice, "It seems that the eldest girl gave the exact same one to Chunshao Court, but I don't know if it's a coincidence or..."

She stopped talking, and we'll see what Aunt Si thinks later.

Although Aunt Si knew that Shen Wenxin was a bit weird, she was a ten-year-old girl after all, how capable could she be?

She thought about it for a while, and then asked suddenly: "At her age, how could she think of giving something like a longevity lock?"

"Exactly!" Mother Kou echoed, and said to her: "The slaves also feel a little weird, not to mention why the eldest girl gave this, even if one is willing to give it, no one can accept it!"

The meaning of her words was naturally to show her loyalty in front of Aunt Si.

She hinted that Aunt Zhen didn't understand the rules, so she didn't know enough to accept gifts from the juniors.

Aunt Si smiled, and said in a disdainful tone: "She only knows about money and ostentation, so she doesn't care about these." After she finished speaking, she thought of something, and her face darkened again.

She told Madam Kou, "Take your things and go to Chunshao Courtyard."

"Also tell her everything in detail, and see how she reacts."

"Your maidservant understands." Madam Kou responded, and then quietly withdrew.

As soon as she left, Aunt Si's confidant came out from behind the screen.

Before entering the mansion, the two of them were aunts and nephews.Aunt Si came out later, and when her aunt's family was in trouble, Aunt Si took her into the mansion.

Aunt Si's aunt followed her husband's family name, Chen, and was known as Mrs. Chen.

When Mrs. Chen was young, she lived with her parents at the junction of Liangzhou and Youzhou for a period of time. There was a lot of fish and dragons in that place, and anyone could be encountered there.

It was there that Mrs. Chen met a "Horse Fairy".

Mrs. Chen, who became acquainted by chance, stayed in a small border town for most of her life.Later, the banditry in Youzhou was too serious, so she couldn't do it, so she moved her family to Xizhou City.

However, people in Xizhou City didn't trust her very much. As time passed, it was difficult for their family to even eat.

A large part of the reason why Aunt Si regards Aunt Zhen as an enemy is that Mrs. Chen "started out" and invited "Ghost Master Qingfeng", one of the "Five Route Soldiers".

The ghost master Qingfeng was able to investigate the matter, and with the help of the "Xianjia", Mrs. Chen found out that the person who killed Aunt Si's child was Aunt Zhen.

Aunt Si was already suspicious, but what Mrs. Chen said confirmed Aunt Zhen's crime.

The enmity between these two people cannot be resolved.One day, there will be a life-and-death relationship.

The blood sacrifice was the idea of ​​Mrs. Chen from the sidelines.From burying to digging, she was involved.Now she turned from behind the screen, the first thing she said was of course the Longevity Lock.

Aunt Si looked carefully just now, and saw that the shape and pattern of the longevity lock was the same as the one she had buried.Since Madam Kou was present, it was difficult for her to check whether Kou was there.Now that Mother Kou has left with her things, she feels restless again.

When the grave was dug, Aunt Si wanted to lock the blood-stained Changshou in her yard.Mrs. Chen persuaded her in every possible way with the reasons of "inappropriate" and "unlucky".Then he said to her: "The family of Buddhism, Taoism and Immortals, why should we separate you, me, and him?"

For this reason, Aunt Si readily agreed and asked her to send the Longevity Lock to the temple for offering.

If you are not nearby, it is naturally inconvenient to check.

Aunt Si was upset, so she quickly sent Mrs. Chen out of the house to check.

Just after the end of the day, Mrs. Chen rushed back with the wind on her feet, and reported to Aunt Si: "This old slave opened the box and checked it himself. The things are still there, not a single centimetre short!"

"really?"

"The old slave has personally tested it, it can't be wrong!"

"That's weird. Could it be that someone wants to use that girl's hand to beat me?" Aunt Si was restless, always feeling that this matter started to be strange, and its direction was also quite strange.

But I heard Mrs. Chen analyzing from the side: "In my opinion, the eldest girl is only ten years old, so she shouldn't have such thoughts."

"It was dug out of her yard after all."

"You are confused! The eldest girl has lived in it for less than five days. Judging from the appearance of that thing, it should have been buried for a long time."

"You mean, this thing belongs to that bitch?"

When Aunt Si asked the question, she almost understood what Mrs. Chen meant.

Aunt Zhen was so eager to save her daughter that she almost went to the doctor in a hurry.A while ago, I heard that she moved all the roses from the courtyard, and Aunt Si was quite sorry.

That old sister-in-law Huiyuan has a big appetite.In order for her to continue coaxing Aunt Zhen, Aunt Si gave her a lot of money.

If Aunt Zhen lost her head and believed in some unscrupulous method, she would dig her own grave!

But Mrs. Chen said: "From what I see, this woman probably doesn't know about it. She is not good at doing things and being a person. She has already caused complaints from the people below. If there is a thief in her courtyard, It is also something that can be expected. What you have to do now is to calm down and listen to the movement in the courtyard over there."

From Shen's residence to the temples outside the city, it took nearly an hour even for Mrs. Chen's fast pace.

During this period of time, Mother Kou, who was sent to Chunshao Academy, came back once.It is said that Aunt Zhen caught cold at night and is lying down at the moment, so it is inconvenient to see guests.And the few maids who were close to Aunt Zhen are basically gone, and now she is serving in front of her, an unfamiliar maid.

This servant girl was not familiar with the things in Chunshao Courtyard at all, and because she disliked the smell of that thing, she said she didn't know it after just two glances.In the end, Mammy Jiang came out to recognize her, and after thinking for a while, she gave Mammy Kou an ambiguous answer.

She said: "It seems that there is such an object."

When Mother Kou asked her where the object was, she again said she didn't know.

The two of them are their own masters, so if you ask this, naturally you can't ask more things.Nanny Kou had no choice but to give up and reply to Aunt Si first.

Mrs. Chen asked: "This matter is indeed a bit strange, why don't we coax the eldest girl and expose this matter?"

Aunt Si waved her head and said: "I'm afraid this matter is not that simple. Even if it was an accident, the matter has already spread. If there is no explanation, I'm afraid there will be some rumors in the house."

After all, they have done something like "cursing", no matter who instigated this incident, it may be affected in the end.

Aunt Si really hoped that someone would use it to curse Aunt Zhen, but now, she can only make this matter into a trivial matter.

……

In Chunshao Court at this time, it's not that Aunt Zhen is inconvenient to meet guests, but someone who doesn't want to see Aunt Si.

As soon as Nanny Kou left, she quickly summoned Nanny Jiang to come over for questioning.

After hearing about the Longevity Lock, her face changed, and she hurriedly asked Mother Jiang to open the box and find out the piece that Shen Wenxin gave her.

It stands to reason that it is inappropriate for Shen Wenxin to send Sister Qiong a long life lock.But Shen Wenxin's initiative to show her favor made her enjoy it quite a bit.Besides, sister Qiong's condition is unstable, she is someone who doesn't even want to hear the word "gone".

Shen Wenxin sent "Longevity" over at this time, so there was no reason for her to refuse.

It's just that I didn't expect such a little thing to cause trouble.

Mother Jiang followed the instructions and found out the longevity lock that Shen Wenxin had given her.She and Aunt Zhen looked and looked over and over again, but they didn't see any difference in this thing.

"According to my servant, this thing can't be kept." Mother Jiang is a suspicious person.A piece of unclean longevity lock was suddenly dug up in Shen Wenxin's yard, and the appearance of this thing was the same as the one in Aunt Zhen's hand.Thinking of the worst, I'm afraid that someone is performing the curse technique.

Aunt Zhen was shocked and hurriedly asked her, "Who could it be? The little girl from the countryside?"

"I'm afraid that someone will take the opportunity to harm Madam because she is young and ignorant."

Mammy Jiang was able to analyze clearly, and offered an idea for Aunt Zhen: "That girl has always been in touch with the one in Liqing Courtyard. I heard that there is a witch in that courtyard who likes to play tricks the most. This matter may have something to do with her!"

Aunt Zhen mumbled for a long time, seeming to find it hard to understand.

She asked Mother Jiang: "Since that bitch Si Juan did it, why would she send the things to me?"

Mammy Jiang didn't want to understand this question either.

The two of them were silent for a long time, but in the end they didn't come up with any useful results.

Although Aunt Zhen didn't dare to keep the longevity lock that Shen Wenxin gave her, but if she disposes of it casually, she is afraid that it will be bad for Sister Qiong.What's more, she always felt that she had fallen into Aunt Si's tricks and made a joke in her eyes by looking forward and backward like this.

Mother Jiang finally suggested that she should send the Longevity Lock to Huiyuan's Lingyun nunnery for storage.If this thing is really unknown, you have to be honest when you get there.

If there is nothing wrong with this thing, receiving incense is also a matter of praying for blessings.

Isn't it just right to have the best of both worlds?

Aunt Zhen also thought her proposal was good, and hurriedly asked her to "give away" the things.

……

As soon as Mother Jiang left the mansion, Aunt Si got the news.

Mrs. Chen quickly flattered her and said: "Madam is really good at predicting things, guessing that they dare not make things big!"

Aunt Si sneered and said, "Master is getting annoyed now, how dare she show her eyes in front of Master again."

Mrs. Chen said: "That's what I said, but it's not her style! Madam still has to be careful!"

Aunt Si didn't care.

Even if Aunt Zhen used this as a note in the end, she wanted to make trouble again.But without evidence, it would only annoy Shen Dongci.

As long as Aunt Si doesn't get scared and feels guilty first, then no one can touch her.

She asked Nanny Kou to show the things to Aunt Zhen, not only because she was not afraid that she would be on guard and make trouble, but even wanted her to "find trouble when nothing happened".

Although Xinying died, Aunt Zhen was still seriously injured.As the saying goes, you have to strike while the iron is hot. If something goes wrong at this time, Aunt Zhen's good days will come to an end.

Aunt Si is a decisive person.

When she was not sure whether the longevity lock that sealed the severed finger was still in the temple, she dared to ask Nanny Kou to deliver the things to Aunt Zhen.

Her reasoning is very simple, if Aunt Zhen knew about this matter long ago, then she would not play tricks and create so many details.

As long as she delivers the things to Shen Dongci, those who wait for Aunt Si will be demoted to slaves, and they will never stand up again.

It doesn't matter whether it was accidental or someone did it on purpose.

As far as Aunt Si is concerned, as long as Aunt Zhen can repay her debt with blood, she doesn't care what her end will be like in the end.

"Longevity Lock" is nothing more than throwing stones to ask for directions.

She waited for the next thing to come.

……

Aunt Si's prediction was right, at night, the garden really became lively.

The reason was that the woman who guarded the gate was in a hurry to urinate, so she walked into the garden alone, hoping to find a secluded place for convenience.

As a result, when walking to the back of the rockery, I fell and broke my head.

At this moment, she vaguely heard a woman's voice, asking why she was so careless like herself?

The woman was so frightened that she lost all three souls, and immediately howled continuously, which alarmed most of the people in the garden.

Even Qiuyue, who was beside the old lady, was also bewildered by the trouble, and came to Aunt Si's courtyard with a lantern in person.

This matter went to the end, and the rumors became more and more evil. By the next morning, almost everyone in the government knew that Xinying's death was wronged, so much so that her ghost lingered.

In addition, the strange incidents in Xiahong Courtyard were spread to everyone through the mouths of the two brothers of the Wang family.

When they told this story, they deliberately exaggerated and added some details.Not long after, the news that something unclean was dug up in Shen Wenxin's courtyard spread directly to the teahouses and restaurants in Xizhou City.

This matter made the old lady very angry.

She sent someone to call Aunt Si to Shou'an Hall, and taught her a lesson without losing face.

Aunt Si felt aggrieved, and hurriedly explained to her: "The servant does not know who spread these nonsense! If the servant knows who it is, how dare he keep his tongue and let him say such outrageous words !"

At this moment, Qiuyue stood up and pleaded guilty: "This servant has the guts to report on the two of you to the old lady!"

The old lady frowned, looked at her with some dissatisfaction, and asked, "It seems that you already knew about this?"

Facing the old lady's suspicious eyes, Qiuyue had no choice but to bite the bullet and said: "My servant is terrified. It's because these two people have special identities. My servant is timid. I don't know whether I should say it."

Hearing what she said, the old lady couldn't help being even more suspicious.

Under her questioning again, Qiuyue confessed to the brothers of the Wang family.

She said: "Not to mention the debauchery of these two people, they also like to talk about the master's affairs. Originally, the girl's yard was just an ordinary long-lived lock dug out, and they became...unclean The thing... please pay attention to the old lady!"

"Damn things!"

After hearing Qiuyue's words, the old lady was furious, and hurriedly ordered someone to tie up Wang Er and his son, and sent them to the execution room for interrogation.

These few people were not strong-minded, and they were so frightened that they peed their pants before the whip was on their bodies.Immediately wept and told what he knew, saw, and did.

It turned out that there was another thing hidden in it.

……

Qian'er, who received the token, really went to find Fang'er.She cried a lot in front of Fang'er, and after crying Fang'er's heart softened, she asked her to meet Wang Xiaoer.

She first boasted about the achievements of the ancestors of the Wang family, and then said that her future is in Wang Xiaoer's hands.If this matter is done well, she can also rely on Wang Xiaoer's face to find a good job in the house.

She felt in her heart that Fang'er owed her after all for the warehouse theft.It's not too much to ask her to do such a thing.

Besides, Fang'er was soft-hearted, she might hold it up when she was in front of Shen Wenxin, but in private, she was easy to talk to.

She thought she had grasped Fang'er's temper, and finally convinced her.

So, after agreeing on the time and place, Wang Xiaoer waited outside the courtyard.In the end, I did see a woman in a green shirt come out, her footsteps were in a hurry, but she left without saying hello to him.

Wang Xiaoer felt sorry for the beauty, guessing that she might be embarrassed, so he stalked behind her not too far away.The two went out of Xizhou City one after the other.

On the official road outside, Wang Xiaoer was about to catch up with her and stop her, when he saw a sister-in-law approaching her.The two exchanged a few words, looking very intimate.

From ancient times to the present, temples and nunneries are not all pure places.

Wang Xiaoer played among the flowers all the year round, seeing them like this, thought they had some shady affair.At the moment, my heart is on fire, but I am not in a hurry to chase.Just follow these two people to continue walking, and after a short time, we arrived at Lingyun nunnery where my aunts lived.

The two of them went in, wondering if they were doing something to "grind the mirror".Wang Xiaoer pretended to be a pilgrim and walked around, but found a wooden box on the altar of a Buddhist hall.Originally, Wang Xiaoer couldn't see what was inside.It happened that an aunt came in to clean it, and put a small packet of spices in it in front of Wang Xiaoer.

It was only then that Wang Xiaoer saw clearly that what lay there was the longevity lock dug out by the two brothers.

From the behavior of this aunt, it can be seen that she is not meticulous.Wang Xiaoer immediately asked her a few questions, and then realized that this thing was sent by the Shen residence.

He thought he had caught Fang'er, and immediately went back happily.

As a result, on the second day, he wanted to take advantage of this to take advantage of Fang'er, but his nose was ashamed.

The more he thought about it, the more he hated it, and he simply spread the news that an "unclean" thing had been dug up in Xiahong Courtyard.

According to him, what serious things should be "offered" in the temple?I'm afraid that this big girl is an ominous person, so that auspicious things like longevity locks will emit such a stench.

He didn't seem to be wrong in thinking so.

If the old lady wanted to dispel the rumors, besides punishing them, she had to figure out the whole story of the incident.

She immediately sent a few capable women to visit the Lingyun Nunnery to see if there were any "unclean things" that Wang Xiaoer called on the altar.
