She was naturally charming and bright, and her smile was even more frightening. Even Taoist Aunt Ma, who pointed at her nose and called her a monster, was stunned for a moment.
Even, at a certain moment, Taoist Aunt Ma could clearly see the trace of sarcasm and understanding flashing across her eyes.
Xie Wu smiled lightly without humming, but the old lady beside her couldn't hold it in any longer. Her eyes kept scanning over Xie Wu and Taoist Aunt Ma. Finally, she looked at Taoist Aunt Ma with a stern face and said, "Taoist Sister, you are so stupid."
What do you mean?"
"Old madam, to be honest, that evil spirit is attached to the eldest girl!" Taoist Aunt Ma turned to the old madam with a very solemn expression and said categorically.
As soon as she said these words, there was an immediate uproar in the courtyard, and the women and maids in the courtyard looked at Xie Wu with a little fear.
Rao was mentally prepared, but when she actually heard Taoist Aunt Ma say these words, the old lady couldn't help but change her face, and she subconsciously looked towards Xie Wu.
She didn't want to, but Xie Wu smiled lightly, and even raised the tip of her slender eyebrows slightly, and there was no trace of panic on her face.
The old lady frowned slightly. She looked at Xie Wu intently for a while, and finally turned to look at Taoist Ma with a solemn expression, "Taoist Sister, are you sure?"
"Old madam, this is about the eldest daughter of the Hou family. How dare I talk nonsense! However, I am also strange. It is said that the eldest girl has a noble destiny and is controlled by the nobility of the Hou family. Evil spirits should not be easy to get close to... I don't know.
Has the girl been ill a while ago, or has she been to some places she shouldn't have been?" Taoist Aunt Ma frowned and looked at the old lady, with some confusion on her face.
At this time, Mrs. Chen also heard the news and rushed over with Wu Qing and several maids, and happened to listen to Taoist Aunt Ma's words.
"Mother, don't listen to this Taoist nun's nonsense. My Awu is fine and nothing has happened to her." Mrs. Chen said to the old lady in a hurry with red eyes, even forgetting to salute.
The old lady didn't even look at Mrs. Chen. She pursed her lips vigorously, feeling as if a big stone had fallen on her heart. She was so heavy that she couldn't breathe.
Xie Wu was indeed ill, and the illness was not serious. She had a fever for several days. It was not until Xie Zheng came to Beijing that she gradually recovered. Could it be that it was then... Catching a glimpse of the old lady's expression, Taoist Aunt Ma knew that I
Most people believed her words, so they continued to ask the old lady hurriedly and attentively, "Evil possessions are usually traceable. I wonder if the eldest lady has changed before and after she fell ill?"
The old lady's pupils suddenly shrank and she looked at Xie Wu with complex eyes.
Even though Taoist Sister Ma categorically said that she was possessed by an evil spirit, there was still no trace of panic or fear on her face. Instead, there was some unabashed sarcasm and disdain in her eyes when she looked at Taoist Sister Ma.
"Mother..." Mrs. Chen wanted to speak for Xie Wu again, but Xie Wu stopped her.
She looked at her daughter with a confused face, only to see Xie Wu smile lightly.
"Grandma, can I speak now?" Xie Wu looked at the old lady with a smile and said.
The old lady frowned and then remembered that she had not said a word since Taoist Aunt Ma pointed out that Xie Wu was possessed by evil spirits.
Xie Wu smiled lightly, then blessed the old lady with blessings. She turned around and looked at Taoist Ma again and said with a smile, "Dao Taoist, you have lived in Qingyun Mountain for a long time, how did you know that I was seriously ill a while ago? I remember, just now
Grandma didn’t say anything, but the Taoist nun kept to herself and asked her if there were any changes before and after I got sick.”
Taoist Aunt Ma's face froze slightly, but soon she came to her senses and said solemnly, "If evil spirits want to attach themselves to the human body, they will naturally..."
"It's to take advantage of people's illness and weakness..." Xie Wu took Taoist Aunt Ma's words with a half-smile. After that, she raised her eyes and scanned Taoist Aunt Ma from top to bottom. Then, she raised her eyebrows and smiled, with a clear voice.
He said, "But didn't the Taoist nun just say that the evil spirits might have gone to some places they shouldn't have gone? How dare the Taoist nun be so sure that I am sick and that the evil spirits have an opportunity to take advantage of me?"
"Pindao can figure it out by pinching his fingers..."
"Since Taoist nun has already figured out that I am possessed by evil spirits due to illness, why did I need to explain just now? Don't you think it is unnecessary?" Xie Wu raised her eyebrows and interrupted Taoist Aunt Ma, with a vague look in her eyes.
Absolute sarcasm.
Even though Taoist Aunt Ma didn't show any abnormalities on her face, there was still a layer of cold sweat on her forehead.
No wonder Mrs. Yang was so afraid of this big girl. Even though she had been wary for a long time, she was still fooled by her few words. "I remember that the last time I came to the Hou Mansion, the girl had not been like this."
Are you good at speaking?" Ma Daogu said coldly with her eyes narrowed and looking at Xie Wu from top to bottom.
Xie Wu smiled lightly and said, "That's because the Taoist nun didn't point at my nose and call me an evil beast last time!"
"The Supreme God of Blessings and Lives." Taoist Aunt Ma quickly closed her eyes and recited a chant. When she came, she turned around and looked at the old lady with a solemn face and said, "Old madam, this is not just nonsense. The eldest girl has indeed been possessed by evil spirits.
The body, therefore, evil spirits gather in the house." After saying this, she paused again, and looked at the old lady with an even more solemn look, "I don't want to meddle in my own business, but the old lady always takes care of the poor.
Only a poor Taoist dares to speak out because he has many bad ideas. If the old lady doesn't believe it, just assume that the poor Taoist has never been to the Marquis Mansion today." After saying that, she solemnly saluted the old lady, then turned around to leave.
The old lady looked solemn and was about to call Taoist Aunt Ma, but Xie Wu beat her to it and spoke.
"Taoist Aunt, are you leaving just like that?" Seeing Taoist Aunt Ma stop, Xie Wu smiled sweetly, walked up to Taoist Aunt Ma, looked at her with a smile and said, "Taoist Auntie is so grateful to my grandmother. Ordinarily, she should solve my grandmother's problems.
No matter what, you should get rid of the evil spirits before leaving! Haven't you already confirmed that I am possessed by evil spirits? Could it be that... you have a guilty conscience?"
Taoist Aunt Ma glared at the little girl in front of her, and her chest was filled with fear!
She had met a lot of noble ladies from powerful families in the capital, but none of them could be like Xie Wu. After being accused in public of being possessed by an evil spirit, she could still be so calm and self-possessed, with no trace of shock on her face.
Terrified and panicked, her few words even forced her to retreat! She was so smart and so charming, what else could she be if she wasn't a monster!
Thinking of this, Taoist Aunt Ma felt a surge of anger in her heart!
Originally I wanted to leave her a way out, but since she forced her to this point, no wonder she was so ruthless!
"What a bastard! Do you think that because you are possessed by a big girl, the poor Taoist can't do anything to you!" Taoist Aunt Ma gave a sharp shout, raised her hand and hit Xie Wu with a fly whisk.
Xie Wu did not dodge, she raised her hand and grabbed the whisk that was swept away, "Evil beast? This is the first time in my life that someone pointed at my nose and called me an evil beast! Taoist nun, do you know that you are slandering Hou?"
What kind of crime should a girl who is the direct daughter of the house deserve?"
