Later, Jia Qin went to the city, bought a few more coarse cloth clothes with money, found a job with his excellent embroidery skills, and settled down in Suzhou City.

After settling in, Jia Qin took the hosta to the pawn shop.

When the pawn shop owner saw the hosta, he gasped in fright and asked her where the hosta came from.

Jia Qin didn't say anything.

The owner of the pawnshop told Jia Qin that the hosta belonged to Cao Ruyi, the concubine of Qi Yuan, and was a gift given to Cao Ruyi by his wife when Qi Yuan took a concubine.

Not long ago, Cao Ruyi was in such a panic that he secretly found his pawnshop and wanted to pawn the hosta. How dare the shopkeeper accept it? It turned out that Cao Ruyi had run away and wanted to use the hosta as payment. If he accepted it, it would be like being with Qi Yuan.

enemy.

The pawnshop owner didn't dare to accept it at that time, and he is even more afraid to accept it now. Because in the afternoon of the day he saw Cao Ruyi, Cao Ruyi fell off a cliff and died!

Cao Ruyi was chased by the servants of the Qi family to the edge of the cliff, and jumped off by himself in order not to be caught back.

Before she died, she raised her head and sighed, laughing wildly, and asked the Qi family servants to go back and spread the word that she would turn into a ghost after her death and take revenge!

Seeing the horrified look on the pawnshop owner's face when he talked about "turning into a ghost to take revenge after death", Jia Qin guessed that hysteria was fake and running away for one's life was real.

Jia Qin later realized that if the second lady was suffering from hysteria, how could she be so hungry without food?

Jia Qin asked the pawnshop owner why Cao Ruyi ran away.

The pawn shop owner was frank and said that it was not a secret anyway. Cao Ruyi was sold to Qi Yuanwai by her father as a concubine.

When she first learned that she was going to be sold to the Qi family by her father, Cao Ruyi once escaped from her natal family, but was chased back by Cao's father and brother.

Later, she entered Qi's house and escaped twice. Many people saw Cao Ruyi during both escapes and said that she was covered in bruises each time. Her escape must be because she was mistreated at Qi's house.

Everyone speculated that Qi Yuanwai must be the only one doting on this young concubine. His wife, who was nearly ten years older than Qi Yuanwai and had nothing to do, was jealous, so she always abused the concubine.

The first time he escaped from Qi's house, Cao Ruyi fled back to his parents' house, but after returning, Cao's father sent him back to Qi's house. In order to express his apology, Cao Ruyi beat Cao Ruyi again in front of Qi Yuanwai and his wife.

During the second escape, Cao Ruyi no longer returned to her parents' home, but fled directly out of Suzhou City and fled southwestward after leaving the city.

But that time, he was overtaken by the chasing servant.

The pawnshop owner muttered that this time, the third escape route was still to the southwest, because the cliff was in the southwest.

He could understand that Cao Ruyi was still running toward the southwest this time. Because from the perspective of a servant of the Qi family, he would feel that Cao Ruyi was overtaken when he ran toward the southwest last time, and he would definitely change direction this time.

Unexpectedly, the fate is not as good as fate, and the servants still chase to the southwest this time.

And this time, Cao Ruyi would rather jump off a cliff and commit suicide than be captured again. It can be seen that if he was captured twice in the past, he would suffer more cruel punishment.

The pawn shop owner lamented that Cao Ruyi was pitiful, and he didn’t know what kind of life Cao Ruyi had lived these years, where he was worse than a pig or a dog, and life was worse than death.

Jia Qin felt ashamed as she listened to the pawnshop owner's narration and sigh.

Later, she secretly went to the cliff where Cao Ruyi fell to worship.

Later, she met Tian Lei, who was also lonely and helpless. Both of them didn't like the excitement, so they spent some money to take over the teahouse and lived a solitary life.

Tian Lei told Zheng Fangxing that Jia Qin had kept the hosta and said it was very valuable. He went to a local pawn shop to pawn it, and the couple would have no worries about food and clothing for the rest of their lives.

Qi Yuan's wife must not know the origin of this hosta, so she gave it to her concubine.

In the past six years, Jia Qin would go to the cliff to pay homage and atone for her sins every time Cao Ruyi's memorial day. Tian Lei thought that Jia Qin would repent so sincerely that Cao Ruyi's ghost would forgive her. But he never expected that retribution would come six years later.

When Tian Lei told this, the murderer sitting in a daze at the door was also dumbfounded.

The murderer said that no wonder he was so impulsive. He just came here to vent his anger and had no intention of killing anyone. But just now it was as if he couldn't help himself and lost control. His mind went blank until he strangled the person to death.

Come back to your senses.

Tian Lei cried: retribution, retribution, oh no, it's Cao Ruyi's ghost, she turned into a ghost and came back to take revenge.

Zheng Fangxing helped analyze:

It's broad daylight, and ghosts can't kill for revenge. The only possibility is to possess others. This impulsive murderer is most likely possessed and controlled by Cao Ruyi's ghost.

Zheng Fangxing asked Tian Lei if the pies they made were really unclean?

Tian Lei swore that their food was absolutely clean and fresh, and they ate the pies they made themselves. The couple had always been normal.

Zheng Fangxing clapped his hands and said: So the murderer vomited and had diarrhea after returning from the teahouse, and it took him three full days to regain his strength. It was not because he ate unclean and stale pie, but because he was invaded by Cao Ruyi's ghost.

If a ghost invades a living person, the person will definitely react. The symptoms are usually high fever, coma, vomiting and diarrhea.

The murderer suddenly realized that he must be possessed by Cao Ruyi's ghost. He asked why Cao Ruyi chose him.

Zheng Fangxing shook his head and said that he didn't know this either. He was not a professional in this field. It was probably because his birth date met the requirements, or he knew that the murderer was a bad-tempered person.

The murderer was honest and admitted that he had a bad temper.

The murderer asked again: Why did Cao Ruyi come back for revenge after six years?

Zheng Fangxing still waved his hand to express that he didn't know.

While the three of them were talking, an official from the government arrived.

The murderer hurriedly defended himself. He did not intend to kill but was possessed by Cao Ruyi's ghost. He also asked Zheng Fangxing and Tian Lei to testify against him.

Zheng Fangxing was worried that he would be involved in the case and hurriedly explained: Those were just speculations. Moreover, if it was really Cao Ruyi's ghost, how could he come back for revenge after six years?

Several officials looked at each other, and one of the youngest ones shouted in astonishment: I thought the second one would be a member of the Qi family, how could it be her? This Cao Ruyi is really jealous, Jia Qin just pointed the way, and refused to

Let it go?

One of the other older officers hit the young officer on the head and taught him not to talk nonsense.

Zheng Fangxing asked curiously: The second one? Who is the first one?

The older officials blamed Zheng Fangxing for being nosy, but the younger officials did not dare to speak.

Zheng Fangxing guessed: Cao Ruyi’s father?

The officials' faces were gloomy and they were all stunned for a moment. Not denying it would be equivalent to acquiescence.

The officials wanted to take everyone away. Before leaving, Tian Lei took the initiative to give Zheng Fangxing the hosta in order to thank him for staying with him.

Tian Lei said that he didn't dare to keep this thing, and he didn't want to keep it. It must be because of this hosta that Cao Ruyi's ghost could easily find Jia Qin. Otherwise, how could he skip the people who abused her in the Qi family and seek revenge on Jia Qin first?

Zheng Fangxing didn't want to accept it, but Tian Lei said that if Zheng Fangxing didn't want it, he would throw the hosta off the cliff.

Isn't that a waste of natural resources? Zheng Fangxing wanted it.

Later, Zheng Fangxing went to Suzhou City to find He Xiangu, the most famous local goddess, to see if there was any way to remove the resentment on the jade hairpin and turn it into an ordinary hairpin.

When He Xiangu heard that the hairpin was Cao Ruyi's relic, she was so frightened that she kicked Zheng Fangxing out.

Before leaving, the maid next to He Xiangu secretly warned Zheng Fangxing that if he really couldn't bear to throw it away, he could keep it, but it was best to stay away from Suzhou City and not be owned by a woman. Women with strong Yin energy would attract Cao Ruyi's ghost.

Therefore, a woman wearing a hosta will have a drastic change in temperament and may even encounter misfortune.

If it belongs to a man, it is best to put it in a container and never wear it.

"Everything the young man said is true. The murderer seems to be named Cui You, and I heard he was sentenced to beheading. This case must be in the files of Dali Temple. You only need to check it to know that the young man is not lying.

"

Pei Wuyan took the hairpin back from Yu Qingfeng's hand.

Yu Qingfeng wanted to take it back again, but Pei Wuyan stretched out his arms to avoid it.

"No? Mr. Pei, do you really believe it? Give it back to me."

Yu Qingfeng didn't believe it, she firmly didn't believe it. In this drama, this hosta was absolutely innocent, and absolutely rare and precious. If such a treasure happened to be obtained by her, could it be taken away again?

Pei Wuyan ignored Yu Qingfeng and asked Zheng Fangxing: "Since this hosta is so dangerous, do you still use it as a trap prize?"

"It's just a small one just for show, to attract customers. I didn't really want to give it to..." Zheng Fangxing couldn't continue.

"I will naturally investigate Cui You's case. If we can't find it, or it deviates from what you said, your crime will be increased."

"If you confirm that what I said is true, can you please be more lenient?" Zheng Fangxing looked forward eagerly.

"Yes, but if you commit another crime again, you will be severely punished."

On the way to the Dali Temple Register Office, Yu Qingfeng repeatedly asked Pei Wuyan to return the hairpin to her.

Pei Wuyan turned a deaf ear and ignored it at first, but then he became really annoyed by the entanglement. He stopped and turned to face Yu Qingfeng, took out the hosta and played with it back and forth.

"Is this crap so good? Isn't it just a phoenix? There are so many phoenix-shaped jewelry in the entire capital. If you want..."

Yu Qingfeng interrupted Pei Wuyan with a smile, "Sir, don't you never believe in ghosts and spirits? In that case, this is just an ordinary hosta. It has been given to me, so there is no reason to take it back?"

"I don't believe in ghosts and gods, but I do..."

"What do you believe?" Yu Qingfeng saw that Pei Wuyan was hesitant to speak, so she became aggressive.

"I believe in the blessings you said, so naturally I also believe in the bad luck." Pei Wuyan said frankly.

Yu Qingfeng suddenly realized, followed by fear.

What she calls blessing is the halo of the protagonist, which is given to the protagonist by the screenwriter. Since the screenwriter can give blessings, naturally he can also give bad luck.
