Chapter 189 The Ghost is Coming
Chapter 189 The Ghost is Coming
The people outside the window were subconsciously stunned when they saw this scene. They didn't expect that these two people were so frightened that they fainted.
The next morning, everything was the same as before, as if nothing had happened.
Mother Shen woke up slowly, and after seeing Nanny Sun lying on the ground, she knew that last night was not a dream.
She never believed in ghosts, but what happened last night forced her to believe in it.
At this moment, Nanny Sun also woke up.
When Nanny Sun found herself lying on the ground, she suddenly remembered what happened last night, which made her unable to hold back and burst into tears.
"Ah~ Zhang Cui, it's not my fault, you must not look for..."
"Shut up!"
Upon hearing this, Nanny Sun subconsciously closed her mouth.
Mother Shen said in a trembling voice: "Go find something to ward off evil spirits and hang it at the door of the house, so that she won't dare to come in."
Nanny Sun: "But...but her body is still in the yard..."
Shen's mother: "Shut up, go find something first, I will find a way to leave here as soon as possible."
She was naturally terrified, but now half of her body was buried in the ground, and she was more afraid of her evil deeds being discovered by others than of ghosts.
If Nanny Zhang occupied this meditation room, then she would have to find a way to leave, because Nanny Sun would be scared crazy sooner or later just by the situation, and then she would be unable to hide her affairs.
Nanny Sun widened her eyes and asked, "Can we leave? Will the old lady let you leave?"
Mother Shen: "Go tell the eldest master that I'm sick and fainted last night. Ask him to find the palace doctor to treat me!"
Nanny Sun: "Yes, Madam!"
Nanny Sun left the meditation room in fear, not knowing that their conversation was heard by the maid outside the room.
After she scared the two men unconscious yesterday, she hurried to report to Jiang Sujin.
Jiang Sujin had long guessed that it was Madam Shen and Nanny Sun who killed Nanny Zhang, but she was very curious about how a paralytic could kill someone.
Nanny Sun first told the servants in Wutong Courtyard to inform the eldest master that the eldest lady was ill and wanted him to visit her.
Then, she found someone to ask for some mugwort to ward off evil spirits, and also borrowed a waist mirror, saying that it could be used to illuminate ghosts.
When Shen Yanfeng and Jiang Sujin were painting in the room, a servant suddenly came in.
"Sir, the eldest lady is ill. I would like to invite you to visit her in the Zen room in the backyard."
Upon hearing this, Shen Yanfeng subconsciously put down the brush in his hand.
"Okay, go call the palace doctor, and I'll follow you..."
Jiang Sujin: "Wait a minute!"
Shen Yanfeng subconsciously looked at Jiang Sujin when he heard this: "What's wrong?"
Jiang Sujin suddenly covered her stomach and said, "I suddenly feel uncomfortable in my stomach."
Shen Yanfeng became nervous when he heard this: "Why are you feeling unwell? Do you want to ask the court doctor to take a look?"
Jiang Sujin covered her stomach and frowned as she said, "That's fine, but doesn't the palace doctor have to go see the first lady?"
Shen Yanfeng: "I'll just send someone to ask for a doctor."
Jiang Sujin hugged his arm and said, "But I don't want you to leave."
Shen Yanfeng: "Then I won't leave. Wait until you feel better, then go see her."
Upon hearing this, Jiang Sujin immediately nodded obediently, and then leaned her head on his shoulder.
She didn't want Shen Yanfeng to go to the Zen room because she had her own plans. She was sure that Shen Yanfeng would come to see her in the end, but she didn't want him to go now.
Shen's mother didn't expect that Shen Yanfeng only sent a doctor over, and he himself didn't show up at all.
He is really a bastard. Since the child is not her own, there is no mother-son bond.
She has fallen into this situation, and he doesn't even come to see her.
Nanny Sun seemed to be crazy. She kept staring around all day.
She was afraid that a ghost would suddenly jump out from somewhere and take her life.
In the evening, Jiang Sujin and Shen Yanfeng had just finished their meal when Jiang Sujin said, "It's quite cool now. Shall we go see the Madam?"
Upon hearing this, Shen Yanfeng said in surprise: "Aren't you feeling unwell?"
Jiang Sujin: "I felt uncomfortable this morning, but I'm fine now."
Shen Yanfeng: "If you are not feeling well, don't go. I can go by myself."
Jiang Sujin: "I just wanted to go out for some fresh air. I haven't been out all day."
Hearing this, Shen Yanfeng had no choice but to say to Caiyue: "Get a cloak for your young lady. It's getting cold outside now."
Caiyue: "Yes, sir." After saying that, she hurried to get the cloak.
After Jiang Sujin put on her cloak, Shen Yanfeng hugged her and went out.
When the two entered the yard, they found many lanterns hanging in the yard.
Jiang Sujin: "The lights in this courtyard are bright. If you don't know, you might think there's some kind of wedding going on."
Shen Yanfeng: "Let's go into the house first!" He then put his arm around her and walked towards the room.
The two men came to the door and found a lot of mugwort hanging on the door, and the smell was quite strong.
Jiang Sujin wanted to say something but stopped herself. Shen Yanfeng just frowned and then opened the door.
The moment the two opened the door, Nanny Sun couldn't help but scream.
Seeing this, Shen Yanfeng glared at her and asked, "What are you shouting about?"
When Nanny Sun saw that it was the eldest son, she breathed a sigh of relief: "This servant deserves death."
In this room, there were only two candles at the bedside, and the rest of the room was pitch black.
When Shen's mother saw Shen Yanfeng, she immediately burst into tears of grievance.
"Son, you finally come to see your mother." As soon as she finished speaking, she saw Jiang Sujin had also come, which made her face darken instantly.
"Why are you here too?"
Jiang Sujin: "Mrs. Shen, what you said is true. I am the mistress of the Shen family. I can go wherever I want."
Shen Yanfeng frowned and said, "Mother, Susu came to see you out of filial piety. How can you say that about her?"
Madam Shen: "It's all her fault that I've fallen to this point. I don't want to see her at all."
Shen Yanfeng: "Mom, if you hadn't done evil, how could you have ended up like this?"
Madam Shen: "I am wary of concubines giving birth to children, all for your sake. Although bastards cannot inherit the family business, they are still descendants of the Shen family. Your father will definitely calculate a part of it to provide for the bastards."
"One more bastard means one more loss for you. I am doing this for your own good."
Shen Yanfeng: "My son will earn his own fortune. Besides, we can't do anything that is against the law just for money."
Madam Shen: "They deliberately seduced your father, so they should be punished."
Jiang Sujin: "I don't know whether others will be punished or not, but Mrs. Shen has definitely been punished."
Madam Shen: "Jiang Sujin, one day you will also be punished."
Jiang Sujin: "Really? Anyway, I have never killed or hurt anyone."
"You certainly wouldn't make the yard so bright and the house so dark at night. If someone didn't know, they would think they were trying to keep out ghosts."
Upon hearing this, Mrs. Shen couldn't help but said in an unnatural voice: "Who is guarding against ghosts? I just don't like the room to be too bright."
Jiang Sujin: "Oh, but I seem to have heard that ghosts like dark rooms the most."
Upon hearing this, Nanny Sun's face turned pale instantly and she looked around nervously.
Madam Shen gritted her teeth and said, "I haven't killed anyone, so ghosts... naturally won't come looking for me."
As soon as she finished speaking, the window suddenly moved forward, making a noise.
"Ah~ She's coming, she's coming again." Nanny Sun shouted while hiding in panic.
Madam Shen didn't care about being afraid, and yelled at Nanny Sun: "What are you crazy about? Get out now."
As soon as she finished speaking, the window was blown open, and at the same time, a man with blood on his face stared into the room.
Seeing this, Shen Yanfeng subconsciously protected Jiang Sujin behind him. He stared at the person with even wider eyes. He was not afraid of this ghost, not to mention that it was not certain whether she was a human or a ghost.
Nanny Sun was so frightened that she collapsed on the ground: "Zhang Cui'er, it was Madam who killed you. If you want to take her life, you have to find her!"
Madam Shen's face turned pale as she shouted, "Slut, what nonsense are you talking about?"
Nanny Sun: "Madam, it's really Nanny Zhang. She's here to take our lives."
Mrs. Shen: "Shut up."
