Chapter 472 1 Shoulder 2 Room 7
"Do you really think they are talking nonsense?" To be honest, Yao Wanpei couldn't help but feel that she was really a jinx. "Tell me, what would I do if my parents-in-law and aunt also thought I was a jinx?"
Yao Wanpei tightly grasped Nuanfeng's hand: "Nuanfeng, I'm really panicking. What if... what if..."
"No," Nuanfeng said hurriedly, "Madam, it's all just a coincidence. It has nothing to do with you. Don't scare yourself."
Although she comforted her master in this way, Nuanfeng was also very panicked in her heart, because she knew very well that if Chengjia's master thought that her master was a jinx, then her master's life would probably be over.
At the same time, in Mo Haixiu's yard.
Mo Haixiu felt weaker and weaker today, and her cough became more severe. She felt like she was about to cough up blood. The medicine she took had absolutely no effect on her condition.
"Cough cough!" Mo Haixiu's face turned red from coughing. It took a long time before he stopped coughing.
"Madam, this is freshly brewed loquat paste water. Please drink it while it's hot." Madam Xu handed the cup to her master and said.
Mo Haixiu took the cup and drank it all, then took the handkerchief handed to him by Aunt Xu and wiped his mouth, then said weakly: "Tell me, is my illness incurable? Even though I drank so much, my condition has not improved, but has become more serious."
"Madam, you are blessed by heaven. You will surely recover soon," said Aunt Xu. "Oh! By the way, I heard that the Second Master is also ill. First it was the Second Master, then the Second Master. I... I..."
Nanny Xu originally wanted to say that the eldest young master's wife was a jinx, but when she thought of the lady's last warning, she dared not continue.
Mo Haixiu naturally knew what Aunt Xu wanted to say: "You secretly take the eldest young lady's horoscope to Qing'an Temple and ask the abbot of Qing'an Temple to take a look."
The abbot of Qing'an Temple is very famous in the capital and is a highly respected monk who is highly sought after by the noble ladies in the capital.
No matter how much Mo Haixiu didn't want to believe it, he had to believe it now. Maybe there was something wrong with Yao Wanpei's fate, otherwise why would the people in this family fall ill one after another after she got married.
"I'll go right away." Nanny Xu said happily, and hurried out.
At the same time, on Cheng's mother's side.
Cheng's mother now doesn't even have the strength to sit up.
"What's going on? Wenxuan has always been in good health, but why did he fall ill?" Cheng's mother was naturally very worried when she learned that her son had fallen ill. However, she didn't even have the strength to sit up, so she could only worry about her son's illness. "First it was me, then it was the master, and now even Wenxuan has fallen ill."
"This makes me wonder if there is something evil in my house. Should I invite a Taoist priest to come take a look and perform a ritual to get rid of the bad luck?"
"Madam, I think our mansion has attracted a jinx," Madam Qian could no longer hold back. "Now the servants in the mansion are saying that the second young master's wife was right when she said that the eldest young master's wife was a jinx. That's why the masters in this mansion have been falling ill one after another since the young master's wife and the second master set the wedding date."
"You..." Mother Cheng wanted to scold Aunt Qian for talking nonsense, but she couldn't say it when she came to her lips. "Could this be just a coincidence? Someone looked at Wanpei's horoscope, and it's obviously the best horoscope. How could it be a destiny of misfortune?"
"Perhaps the fortune teller is not good enough to see the true fate of the eldest young lady," said Madam Qian. "Madam, I followed you from the Yao family and married into the Cheng family. If possible, I don't want to doubt the fate of the eldest young lady."
"But seeing that your illness is getting worse day by day, I can't help thinking about it even if I don't want to. Maybe what the Second Young Master's Madam said is not slandering the First Young Master's Madam. The First Young Master's Madam is really a jinx. If we don't find out the First Young Master's Madam's fate quickly, I'm afraid that you... you..."
Nanny Qian wiped her tears and stopped talking.
"You secretly take the eldest young lady's horoscope and go to a few more temples to have the temple abbots take a look." Cheng's mother didn't want to doubt her niece's fate, but the reality made it impossible for her not to doubt. "Before the matter is clarified, this matter must not be known to the eldest young lady."
"Don't worry, madam. You have nothing to worry about in my work." After saying this, Nanny Qian wiped her tears and immediately walked out.
At the same time, the second master was in his concubine's room, where his concubine was serving him medicine.
After feeding the second master the last sip of medicine, Aunt Xu quickly picked up a preserved fruit and fed it to the second master: "Master, your illness is really strange. You were in good health without any signs. How come you suddenly fell ill? You have been taking medicine for two or three days in a row, but it has no effect at all."
"And there's more! I heard that the second young master is also sick. Except for the eldest master, all the masters in this family have fallen ill one after another."
"Of course, the first and second young masters' wives are exceptions," Aunt Xu continued, seeing that the second master had no intention of stopping her. "Forget about the second young master's wife. After all, she was smart enough to hide on the farm. As for the first young master's wife, she is even healthier. She just punished the two maids and showed off her power."
"You don't know, the servants in the mansion are now saying that the eldest young lady is a jinx. The two maids were discussing this matter and were overheard by the eldest young lady. That's why she used it as an example to scare the monkeys."
Among the two old women who were dealt with by Yao Wanpei, one was the gatekeeper in Aunt Xu's courtyard. Although she was not valued by Aunt Xu, she was still a member of Aunt Xu's courtyard after all. Yao Wanpei dealt with her just because he said so. It showed that he did not take her seriously at all.
So don’t blame Aunt Xu for being flattering to Yao Wanpei. Besides, Aunt Xu didn’t wrongly accuse Yao Wanpei.
If Yao Wanpei was not a jinx, how could we explain why the masters in this mansion fell ill one after another?
The second master really wanted to say "nonsense", but the three words "unlucky star" really entered his mind. After all, people in his family fell ill one after another, and now even his son was sick. How could the second master not think too much?
Seeing the Second Master's expression, Aunt Xu wisely didn't say anything more. She had served the Second Master for two years and understood his temperament. She knew that the Second Master had already listened to her words, so there was no need for her to continue talking, otherwise it would seem too deliberate.
