That day, Taoist Huogong from Qingxuguan came to deliver food to Daopo Ma.The Huogong Taoist sighed and said: "Oh, you are also a poor person. I advise you to think about it early. I'm afraid you don't know which hand you fell into? I just heard about it. It was you who took action against the head grandma of the Rongguo Mansion, and this time she was the one who found out about you. How can the wives and grandmas of these aristocratic families be so simple? This time... ah... it's hard to get a happy one... ..."

When Ma Daopo heard this, she was struck by lightning. When she lost her mind, the only thing she missed was Fengjie Tong Baoyu in Rongguo Mansion.Now, when I heard this Huogong Taoist said this, I was very confident at once, gritted my teeth and nodded: "I said who, it turned out to be her! It's a pity that I couldn't kill him that day! Fortunately, fortunately... Hehe, it's not too bad. loss."

The Huogong Taoist was taken aback when he heard what she said.He originally thought that if the Taoist woman said that she had never dealt with the other side at all, he would still have a prepared excuse.Unexpectedly, God has eyes, these two people are really at odds with each other.Then he sighed a few more words, just talking about how powerful the Rongguo Mansion is, and how the grandmother in charge refused to spare her lightly.After speaking, he shook his head and swayed away when he heard the movement ahead.

Ma Daopo knew that it would be hard to live if things were brought to light.Besides, she has heard a lot about Sister Feng's vicious methods, and the Rongguo Mansion is so powerful, when she really falls into the hands of that poisonous woman, she may really have no choice but to die.For a while, I wish I could do a few more tricks to make Sister Feng have nightmares for the rest of her life.It's a pity that I'm here alone now, without a bit of bat blood and human bones in hand, even if I have great abilities, it's hard to do it.

Taoist Huogong took the food delivery basket and just walked to the gate of the yard, when several guards came over and looked at them with a smile, "What's the matter, Mr. Niu, why are you here to deliver the food today? Didn't you like the lady inside?" !"

The Niu Laodao apologized and said with a smile: "The officials are joking, because I heard that the Taoist women are all very capable nowadays, and even a few of us here have been questioned. The little old Taoist is the most incompetent, so he was sent I got this errand. I heard rumors that the little old man was really afraid that he was imprisoned by some kind of big devil. Thanks to the courage of the officials, he dared to guard such a person. Just came here and saw that she was just an ordinary woman, no Like someone with that much patience."

The leader said with a smile: "You don't see her very well now, and she has a few lives on her back. Hurry up, be careful if you don't see her for a while, she will miss you!"

Niu Laodao seemed to be really taken aback, made a hasty bow, and fled away as if flying, seeing that his legs and feet were so agile that he was dozens of years younger.It made all the guards laugh.

This day, someone from above informed me that Ma Daopo would have to be re-examined after changing places in two days.Ma Daopo heard it through the window, and knew that she had died, and she didn't want to suffer those sufferings anymore. Sitting and thinking about what she had done all these years, it would not be a disadvantage, so she made up her mind.

The next morning, when the prisoner was to be escorted, when he opened the door, he saw Ma Daopo sitting on the ground with a pale face, staring at the door with empty eyes, she had been dead for a long time.Looking closely at her condition, there is a strange handprint on both hands, and a pool of blood on the ground, soaking her clothes, which is not completely dry yet.

The few people who didn't take her seriously in the morning suddenly remembered that she was a woman who knew sorcery. They felt the hairs on their backs stand on end, and they couldn't be calmer, so they all ran out with a loud voice.

Fortunately, I was contemplating the emptiness. A while ago, I invited the Taoist in charge. Seeing the scene, the Taoist frowned and said: "What a deep hatred, he cast a blood curse before he died. Alas, bad luck, bad luck!" Regardless of those people, they went to the front and reported to the viewer.

Half a day later, the leader carried the table and prepared incense candles and yellow paper, and took a mahogany sword, lit candles and burned paper, and recited mantras.It took a while to finish, and after the things were collected, he said to the guards: "It's done, it's all right now, you go in and carry it out."

The few people went in to have a look, and it was strange that the corpse, which was sitting cross-legged, was now lying flat.Then he said to the Taoist: "The Taoist priest is very powerful, so he can undo the curse?"

The Taoist shook his head: "This is a curse cast by fate, it's so easy to undo, just a bunch of evil spirits, so as not to hurt innocent people."

The prison guard was shocked, and after thinking about how many of himself had never said or done anything bad to this woman, he was worried in the end, and asked: "Master, this, this, which one is she cursing? There is no need for that." Solved?"

The Taoist said: "The one who casts the curse must have a matchmaker. Either she has the Chinese character "Choujia" in her hand, or she has a physical object such as hair claws. She is just trying to curse someone out of thin air. Don't worry, look at the handprint just now, the one who cursed is a woman." "He couldn't help but stop when he said this, but he realized that he had said too much, so he refused to say any more, and just urged a few people to remove the corpse, and they still have to do things to clean the house.

After the group left, the Taoists in the Qingxu Temple were busy burying town stones and sprinkling water with talismans in the house. Finally, they had enough tossing and they locked the house and left.

But I didn't see a person coming out from the back wall. It was the Niu Daoist.Seeing him looking into the room for a while, he couldn't help shivering, and went to the back kitchen with his basket.

A little Taoist priest who was washing dishes looked up and saw him coming from a distance, wiped his hands on his clothes, ran to take the basket in his hand, and called Master.Niu Laodao nodded with a smile, and led the little Taoist priest to talk while walking. The little Taoist turned his head to obey from time to time. If you come to our place again, Master will take you to ask the old man to show you your ear."

The little Taoist responded, and comforted his master: "It's okay, master, I can hear it on one side, so I won't delay my obedient work."

The old Taoist sighed again, he didn't know what to think of, and said with a smile: "It's okay! Good people will be rewarded, and evil people will be punished by evil people. Open your eyes, God will avenge us!"

It was probably not the first time for the little Taoist priest to hear his master say this, he raised his head and smiled, and didn't take it seriously, the two of them entered the kitchen compound, and went about their business without mentioning it.

In the Rongguo Mansion, Sister Feng was holding a dark wooden piece in her hand, her complexion was so heavy that it was about to drip water.This thing was recognized by Aunt Zhao's group and placed in her house.It was still last year when Ping'er looked at his eyes and put it away when the seasons were changed.If it weren't for this, I'm afraid that his body would be even weaker now.

I found a few people who looked at it but couldn't tell why, but when Sister Feng secretly figured it out, this thing was put in at the time when she was pregnant with her brother, and she had a miscarriage within a few months afterwards.Thinking about the sudden chaos and upside-down dreams at that time, not to mention that those two wanted to harm her not once or twice, how could she not be suspicious? !

Thinking of the fact that I was pregnant with a son, Aunt Zhao and Ma Daopo tried to get rid of it, and that it would be difficult for me to be ill from then on, I wished I could lock those two women up and cut them into pieces It's good!

It's just that Aunt Zhao's affairs are too big for her to take action.Mother Jia and Mrs. Wang also hesitated. Logically speaking, only Jia Huan and Tanchun were the ones who deserved a bowl of medicine for Aunt Zhao, and no one was willing to open the mouth.Now Aunt Zhao is still locked up in the courtyard at the back, under the watchful eye of several tall and rough women.Anyone who was found to be involved in this matter was beaten and sold, and the Zhao family was even uprooted, and even the usual people who dealt with various nunneries were rotated in the future.It's just that I'm afraid that those dirty tricks will be borrowed again at some point.

Ping'er saw that Sister Feng was in a daze, so she complained: "The old lady and the lady are really, this person has done such a vicious thing, and now he just doesn't give up, who knows what will happen in the future?! It is said that the old lady is the most decisive, but now she looks like..."

Sister Feng sighed and said: "It's also her good luck. She gave birth to a useful daughter. Seeing that she fell into the eyes of Concubine Nan'an, I don't know how to make good fortune in the future. In the end... it always crawled out of her stomach ..."

Ping'er hesitated to speak, but Sister Feng glanced at her and said, "Speak up if you have something to say, and do the same with me."

Ping'er thought it over and said: "The old lady is old and soft-hearted, or it's fine, but the matter is still up to Master Bao, so it doesn't make sense to let it go like this! And... and the wife... If it's true According to what grandma said, those who are jealous of their brothers and sisters because they have children will not be punished for such things, so what will happen in the future? As long as they give birth to something, they will not be afraid. This time it is the grandma in charge Brother, next time, it might be the wife of the main house and the son and grandson! Anyway, I can’t do anything to myself, maybe I will reach the sky in one step, even if I lose, I just need to live in a remote place, as long as I have a little courage Reach out and try it!"

Because Sister Feng had other plans in her mind, she didn't expect this end. After hearing what Ping'er said, she also pondered for a while, and said after a while: "Your words are reasonable. Based on this calculation, I'm afraid the old lady has other plans in this scene."

When I lie down at night, I don't know if it's something on my mind or what, but it's just a mess of dreams.In the dream, several unrecognizable ghosts came to collect debts, the wind was blowing, and the ghosts were crying, and they all came to tear her flesh and clothes.Unable to help but screamed and woke up, Ping'er hurried over with soothing tea.Sister Feng took two sips and said, "Tap the light on, don't block it." After hearing this, Ping'er went to clean it up.

He twisted a hot towel again to wipe Sister Feng's face, and complained: "I've been listening to some things these days, but I have nightmares at night and can't sleep peacefully."

Sister Feng was in a daze for a long time, and then she came back to her senses, and suddenly asked Ping'er, "Do you think there are really ghosts in this world?"

Ping'er thought for a while and said: "If the dead will turn into ghosts, how can there be living people living in the past dynasties?! This is what my grandmother told me before, but now I feel suspicious .”

Sister Feng laughed and scolded: "Crazy hoof, you dare to shov me with words! It doesn't matter whether he has ghosts or not. If there are ghosts, he will find me and kill him. I still don't believe it. When she was a human being, she couldn't beat me. How can I lose to her even if I’ve become a ghost?! I can’t be honest until I have to deal with her in the underworld!”

Ping'er laughed and said, "That's just like grandma's words."

When Sister Feng's mood stabilized, Ping'er helped her to lie down again, and then she lay down on the couch outside, watching the shadows of the candlelight, holding on for a couple of breaths, and finally picked up the quilt and covered her head before daring to fall asleep.

He also said that Aunt Zhao was locked in, and no one was even allowed to approach the yard, let alone visit.Jia Huan wanted to find someone to ask what happened, but he couldn't find anyone credible, because everyone saw him like a god of avoiding plague.He had no choice but to look for Tanchun in the garden, but he was stopped when he entered the garden gate. The gatekeeper said that it was his wife's order: "Men who don't live in the garden are not allowed to enter or leave the garden at will." Jia Huan thought to himself If you put on airs like a man, who cares about him?

He also knew that things might not be easy, so he gritted his teeth and stomped his feet when he saw that he could not enter the garden, so he went outside to look for Jia Zheng in the study.In his heart, although Jia Zheng is strict, he treats his own mother and children much better than others. After all, they are blood relatives, and since they can't find their sister, they can only rely on this old man.But before entering the study, Kuayuan was stopped by two long followers, who only said that the master was seeing an important guest and asked him to avoid it.Jia Huan had no choice but to go back to his room.

Later, when I heard that Aunt Zhao's natal family had sold off many of their relatives, and a few others were beaten and waited to die in the back room, I lost my mind for a while.It's just that depending on how he is, he will be stopped wherever he goes, not to mention Jia Zheng, and even Mrs. Wang will not see him.

Half a month later, it was said that Aunt Zhao had died of tuberculosis, she was set on fire, and the ashes were placed in a wild temple outside, and there was no news of any funeral.At that time, Aunt Zhou even recited a few tables of Buddha when she came back to welcome the bone remains. When she arrived at Aunt Zhao's place, she didn't even know where the letter came from.No one could say exactly when he died, and no one would elaborate on the matter afterwards, as if this person had never appeared here.

Although Jia Huan was not very popular in the past, after all, he still has the status of a brother and a man, and Jia Zheng sees him as well as Baoyu, so his life is not bad.After Aunt Zhao's accident, Jia Zheng was not happy to see him anymore, not to mention inside, he was ordered by Jia Zheng to move out to live in the courtyard outside. After Aunt Zhao's accident, he could not enter Mrs. Wang's courtyard, so Zhao I don't know where the little body that my aunt had saved up over the years went to, but none of it went to him.He didn't ask anywhere.

Now that he lives on two or two taels of silver a month, the women and girls in the mansion avoid him like a snake and a scorpion. Although he is not insulted, contempt is common.At this time, he realized how comfortable it was to live a life that he felt not human!Only then did I know how much protection I lost even if I was only an aunt without my mother!
