This sudden noise made Xie Songhua drop the hammer in her hand. She turned around in horror and looked around, "Who?!"
No one answered, only the sound of mother Zhang coaxing her children could be heard outside the house.
"Come out! Don't pretend to be a ghost for me, I am a staunch Marxist atheist! You can't scare me!"
There was still no movement. Xie Songhua waited for a while and began to suspect that it was just his hallucination.
But when she raised the hammer again, the man's voice sounded again, "You try?!"
This time Xie Songhua was sure that he heard correctly and that there was really a man talking.
"Who are you? Where are you?"
Xie Songhua looked around, and even went out to ask Mama Zhang. After making sure there was no one else in the yard, even though he felt very unbelievable, he still focused his attention on the ring on his finger.
Maybe...maybe...should...
"Are you in the ring?"
"..."
Xie Songhua decided to try again, "You'd better say something. I can't take off this ring. If you don't speak, I can only smash it with a hammer."
There was still no sound, Xie Songhua picked up the hammer again, "I have already said hello to you, don't blame me if it breaks."
Just when the hammer was about to fall, the voice finally answered, just a faint "um", the voice was cold and there was no emotion.
Xie Songhua put down the hammer and raised his hand to look at the ring in the sun. It was still green and clear like water, and there was nothing strange about it.
"Why are you in here?"
"Who are you? Demon or spirit? Or something else?"
Although she had always firmly believed in atheism, she was able to travel through time and seemed to be able to understand when other things appeared.
It's a pity that this seems to be a cold goblin who doesn't answer her questions at all.
"How do you take off my ring? Can you see me in it?"
Unfortunately, there is still no answer.
"You shouldn't be inhabiting my body and absorbing my soul, right?"
Xie Songhua suddenly remembered watching Liao Zhai when he was a child, and couldn't help but become nervous.
"Can you be quiet?"
I finally heard the third sentence spoken by this goblin, but the tone was not very good.
Really uneducated, Xie Songhua tried again, and sure enough, he still couldn't take it off.
Just as she was about to ask the fairy how to take off the ring, Mother Zhang came in with her child in her arms, her face beaming with joy, "Four girls, look, the young master is more energetic after drinking milk and has opened his eyes!"
Xie Songhua has delivered many little lives in her hands. Seeing the little guy like this, he couldn't help but feel soft in his heart, "If you survive a disaster, you will be blessed later."
Zhang's mother's eyes turned red when she heard this, "The fourth girl is the young master's savior. If it weren't for the fourth girl, the young master would definitely have no way to survive, and Aunt Zhang's soul would not be able to rest in peace in heaven. The fourth girl is really our young master's noble person!"
"
Hearing this, Xie Songhua sighed. It had not been long since the original owner returned to Xie's house, but wherever he went, he was pointed at and laughed at like monkeys. In his impression, it seemed that this was the only one who met Aunt Zhang when he met her on the road.
, will nod towards her.
Maybe this is God's arrangement. Even a little bit of kindness has cause and effect. Otherwise, if she hadn't passed through, even if the original owner didn't die, the result would still be one dead and two dead.
"I didn't have time to elaborate in the morning," Xie Songhua pulled Zhang's mother to sit down on the chair next to her. "I found unburned daikon roots in Aunt Zhang's room. I remember smelling it when I went in.
The sweet smell, if I remember correctly, seems to be the sweet smell of dreams?"
Seeing that she was serious, Zhang's mother did not dare to be vague, "Originally, the delivery date was more than half a month away, but as the baby got older, my aunt couldn't sleep well at night, so she called the doctor to see her. Later, she used Mengxiangtian.
It feels better when I sleep at night, and it was the same last night. Originally, the old slave would stay outside my aunt's room every night.
Unexpectedly, when night fell, he said that the master was coming, and asked the old slave to go to the kitchen to get some fruit and food. He chatted with the man in the kitchen for a long time, and when he came back, something happened."
"Auntie, is there no one else here?"
Xie Songhua was asking when he suddenly heard some noise outside, with voices coming from far and near.
Zhang's mother put the child down and said, "Girl, please stay in the house while I go out and take a look."
After a while, Mrs. Zhang came back with a shocked face.
It turned out that the theft case of Mrs. Liu was discovered by Xie Yuncang. The outer court and the inner court were investigating together. Everyone knew that the master was angry and no one dared to take it lightly. In the end, they traced the case to Xie Shuhua's personal maid.
"That maid has already jumped into the well and died. She said that she had a big idea. There is someone outside. She wants to steal a sum of money and ask Mrs. Liu to take it first so that she can use it as a foundation for her future. Now that she is being investigated, she has no shame in living.
Short-sighted."
Xie Shuhua is really capable of killing a person's life as soon as he wants to.
How many benefits can't be obtained by following Xie Shuhua? Are you going to steal the money? How much can you get after getting through the layers?
Such a scapegoat is really not good enough to cover up.
Of course, whether some lies count or not depends solely on whether people are willing to believe them.
From the way Xie Shuhua came to the door with a sullen face and two maids, it can be seen that Mrs. Qi believed in her cheap daughter.
The expression on Xie Shuhua's face was completely different from the past. There was no smile on her face at this time. After she came in, she asked her people to close the door very neatly.
Xie Songhua asked Zhang's mother to retreat into the house and close the door so as not to disturb the children. He walked to the yard and squinted at the people coming.
"Third sister seems to be in a bad mood. What's wrong?"
Xie Shuhua's face was tense, her eyes fixed on Xie Songhua, "Fourth sister didn't go out this morning?"
Xie Songhua just crossed his arms and said with a smile, "Guess."
Xie Shuhua had no intention of guessing. She couldn't figure it out. He clearly saw her getting on the carriage and saw the carriage go out. Why did she appear in the house?
Why did Mrs. Liu die instead?
When did Xie Songhua escape?
Did she guess what was going on?
Xie Shuhua looked at the smile on Xie Songhua's face. She felt that the answer was actually very obvious. Xie Songhua knew it!
"Even if you say it, no one will believe it." Xie Shuhua gritted her teeth and her voice was almost squeezed out from between her teeth.
Xie Songhua still had that smile, which made people want to punch him, "How about we give it a try?"
"Thank you Songhua!"
Xie Shuhua took two steps closer and stared at her fiercely, "Let me tell you, I have been my mother's favorite child since I was a child, even more than my second brother. Do you know what she said on the first day you came back?"
Seeing that Xie Songhua didn't speak, Xie Shuhua's face showed some pleasure, and she deliberately sighed softly, "My mother said that I don't know where the wild monkey ran out. When it came in, the ashes on its body could choke people. She actually said it was
My child, this is ridiculous!"
Seeing that Xie Songhua still didn't speak, Xie Shuhua suppressed her anger just now. She looked at Xie Songhua with a smile, "So, mother doesn't like you at all. Her daughter only has me, and she will always have only me!"
Xie Songhua watched her performance, and after she finished expressing her central idea, she raised her eyebrows and asked lightly: "Are you done?"
"Xie Songhua, I'm just saying this to tell you that you can't fight me. You came from a place like that and you probably haven't even seen ten taels of silver! I'll give you two hundred taels of silver, and you can leave here by yourself, otherwise,
Don’t blame me for being rude to you!”
These words made Xie Songhua laugh, "If you are sure that I can't defeat you, why are you so angry here now?"
One sentence revealed Xie Shuhua's background, and she immediately said angrily: "What nonsense are you talking about!"
Xie Songhua smiled slightly, "No? It's fine if you don't, but I want to tell you, the blood of the Xie family remains on me. This is my home. Why should I leave? You took my place and robbed my things.
, you still dare to show off your power in front of me like this, your face... is so big!"
"You!" Xie Shuhua almost twisted her nose in anger. She never thought that Xie Songhua would dare to talk to her like this. Is this still the same timid Xie Songhua?
Seeing Xie Songhua being so tough, Xie Shuhua sneered, "Okay, then I'll let you know who you are in this family!"
After saying that, she waved her hand and led the people away.
