Daughter of General

Chapter 179 Prayers
Guo's condition has not improved, and even worsened day by day-it had improved a bit at first, but after Shen Yulan returned to the mansion, for some reason, it worsened again.

For this reason, I don't know who spread the rumor that Shen Yulan and the Guo family are incompatible and incompatible.

Naturally, Shen Yulan had also heard about it—she had been operating in the mansion for so many years, she had many eyes and ears, and she buried it so deeply that even after a blow, it was impossible to completely remove it.What's more, these rumors are spreading fiercely, who doesn't know?It's just that I didn't say it clearly.Wondering, isn't it easy?
Shen Yulan laughed off the rumors, and only called Mrs. Li: "Such rumors spread in the mansion, let people know, and they only say that my aunt doesn't know how to housekeeper."

Li Shi didn't care at all, and when he heard this, he immediately shuddered: "Then I'll beat them when I turn around, and then I'll find out where this rumor came from."

Although Shen's residence is not small, it is also not that big - I can't ask the details, but I can ask where it came from in the first place.

Shen Yulan sighed: "There's no need to investigate - this rumor, no matter who spread it, is instigated by someone behind it. You just want to think about who is most beneficial."

Mrs. Li frowned: "Madam and Second Miss? But since this is a rumor, it won't affect anything. What's the meaning of Madam and Second Miss?"

"Don't forget, if Mrs. Guo is really bad. As a junior, I should always be filial—someone will figure out that I have defeated Mrs. Guo. Tell me, should I avoid it for the sake of my elders?" After all, I still don’t want to keep me in the Shen family.” Shen Yulan sneered and shook her head—although this trick is simple, it is very effective.As a junior, it was hard for her to say what not to do.But it really happened in Shen's house, who knows, if there will be another one, some kind of temple fire case?

Mrs. Li thought for a while, then suddenly smiled: "Since that's what they meant, we might as well follow suit. Isn't it bad, madam? Since the imperial doctor's medicine doesn't work, why don't we invite a witch doctor? Ma'am He has committed a lot of crimes, and this ghost's revenge is justified—"

"Well. Let's do it like this." It was almost the same as what she thought, so Shen Yulan didn't say anything.

Naturally, Mrs. Li's work was very fast. The next day, she invited a very famous witch doctor - without asking for the consent of Mrs. Guo and Shen Yushan. By the time the two of them knew about it, the witch doctor had already gone.

Mrs. Guo was furious: "Don't get rid of me, what a witch doctor, he is just a charlatan and a liar. Mrs. Li, if you believe in witchcraft, the master will punish you severely if you know about it."

Mrs. Li lowered her head and wiped her eyes: "I'm also doing it for my wife—besides, this wizard is very famous, and the Queen Mother also asked him to cast spells. I heard it's very effective——"

Shen Yulan also nodded: "Whether it works or not, we have the right to treat a dead horse as a living horse doctor. My wife has been lingering on the sick bed for a long time, and we are also very worried. Besides, my sister is going out, and my wife will get well soon , but what happened? Could it be that Aunt Li is here to send my younger sister out of the house?" Before Jin He married into the Gu family, Guo's health was fine, so he supported himself.But now Mrs. Guo can't even get up by force - let alone wait until Shen Yushan goes out.

If Mrs. Li really came to send Shen Yushan out at that time, then Shen Yushan's face... Although Shen Jun's absence is understandable, Mrs. Guo is Shen Yushan's biological mother and also the mistress.Even the Guo family is not there, so what happened?

Shen Yulan looked at Mrs. Guo and smiled, her expression couldn't be more sincere.

Even Shen Yushan closed her mouth after hearing this, with a look of hesitation—Shen Yushan is very arrogant, and if she really had to be sent out by an aunt, that would be worse than slapping her in the face.

Guo Shi was also tempted: "So you really did the ritual for the Queen Mother?" With that look, he obviously didn't believe it.

Shen Yulan just smiled: "Of course it's true. We dare not lie about this - Madam, don't worry, we really want you to get better this time. You know, I'm not married yet. If you... I want to Filial piety."

These words were ugly, and immediately made Shen Yushan and Guo's faces sullen, but they also made them feel relieved. They were worried about what Li Shi would do when they took the opportunity, but after hearing these words, they were suddenly cheerful: Is not it?The Guo family really has three strengths and two weaknesses, so Shen Yulan has to be filial.Even if she is not the biological mother, she is a stepmother after all, and three years of filial piety cannot escape.

In three years' time, Shen Yulan will be an old girl, but she won't be able to get married.No one, I am afraid, would not make a joke about this matter.

So Mrs. Guo made up her mind, and nodded in agreement: "Since you all agree, then I won't refuse." For a moment, the corners of his mouth couldn't help but smile——although Shen Yulan has never been sympathetic to her. She is under the control of her, but she is an elder after all, so she can see the pros and cons at this moment.No matter how old Shen Yulan is, isn't it impossible to do something to her?
But Shen Yushan was worried, and said sharply to Li Shi: "Don't try to play tricks, if something happens, I can't spare you!"

Mrs. Li looked aggrieved: "How dare I make such a small move? I wish my wife could get better immediately."

Shen Yulan smiled calmly: "Sister, don't worry, even if my aunt wants to do something, she won't buy it. She did rituals for the first queen mother, and she cherishes her reputation. Besides, something really happened , the wizard can't escape the responsibility. How can people take risks?"

Shen Yushan glanced at Shen Yulan, and suddenly smiled, her voice was cold and joking: "Isn't it? The wizard should also weigh it up. If there is something, the Ninth Prince agrees or not."

Before they got married, they brought out the Ninth Prince to scare people——Shen Yulan's smile was even brighter.Even if the Ninth Prince married Shen Yushan, he might not really do anything for Shen Yushan blatantly.Although the Ninth Prince is not yet a concubine, but I heard that there are quite a few people around him.There are even several pet concubines.Especially the girl from the south of the Yangtze River who just entered the mansion fascinated the Ninth Prince.This matter has been widely spread in the dandy circles in the capital.

It is said that she is the number one beauty in Jiangnan.

Is Shen Yushan comparable?
So Shen Yulan is not in a hurry, it's only been a few months anyway, whether Shen Yushan will still have the current arrogance by then is uncertain.

Suddenly the wizard arrived—because they were all female relatives, Shen Yulan, Li Shi, and Shen Yushan all stood behind the screen.Guo Shi lay on the bed and put down the bed curtain.

Shen Yulan was calm and relaxed, but she saw Shen Yushan clenched her fists a little nervously, watching the wizard's every move outside through the screen.

The wizard wore colorful clothes and magic tools, and wore a mask with exaggerated expressions on his head, followed by two children.As soon as he came in, the sorcerer paused for a moment, then without saying a word, he pulled the two children and walked out——

Shen Yushan was stunned for a moment, and asked puzzledly, "What's the matter?"

Mrs. Li was also surprised: "Didn't you agree to do things for your wife? Why did you just turn around and leave? I'll ask—" As he spoke, he hurriedly chased after him—

Shen Yushan hesitated and went too.Shen Yulan followed slowly, turned to look at Mrs. Guo on the bed, and smiled slightly.

In the yard, the wizard had already taken off his mask, with a gloomy expression on his face.Although he didn't leave immediately, it was obvious that he didn't want to stay for a long time.Mrs. Li stopped in front of the sorcerer, frowning and asked, "What's wrong with the sorcerer? Didn't we say that we would do a prayer ceremony? Why did the sorcerer turn around and leave?" Although he was eager, his tone still didn't dare to be pretentious— — After all, he did rituals for the Empress Dowager, and she is very famous, so she should be respected no matter what.

Besides, no one dares to easily offend a wizard who knows ghosts and gods.

The wizard snorted, but instead questioned Mrs. Li: "Earlier, you only said that your wife is just suffering from illness and is fine. So you begged me to pray for blessings. But the actual situation is not the case. You did it on purpose. Can't frame me? If I didn't retreat quickly and really did the ritual, wouldn't I be implicated as well?"

Mrs. Li was surprised: "How do you say that? Of course our wife is just suffering from illness——"

"Whether you are sick or not, it doesn't matter if you say it." The wizard still looked unhappy: "Let me tell you, I can't do this ritual in your family. It's not something that can be done just by praying."

Mrs. Li was stunned, with a look of panic on her face; "I asked the wizard to explain the confusion for us, what's going on?"

Shen Yushan was also anxious at this time, and she didn't care about avoiding anything at all, she leaned forward and said, "If you don't tell the reason today, I will definitely make you unable to eat!" .

Li's face turned pale, fearing that Shen Yushan would offend the wizard, she hurriedly said: "Forgive me, wizard, this is my young lady, because I was worried for my wife, so I was a little anxious."

The sorcerer was not as knowledgeable as Shen Yushan. Instead, he gave Shen Yushan a casual look, and said with disdain, "You are young, but you have a lot of hostility. If I were you, I would eat fast and chant Buddha more, so as not to..."

Where has Shen Yushan been underestimated like this?Moreover, there was no respect at all in the wizard's words, but a bit of disdain and warning, and Shen Yushan was about to explode on the spot.If it wasn't for Li Shi's quick pull, I'm afraid the atmosphere would deteriorate.Mrs. Li secretly reminded Shen Yushan: "Miss San, the wife's condition is serious."

Shen Yushan just flicked her sleeves, stared at the wizard coldly and remained silent.

The wizard refused to speak.

Mrs. Li was in a hurry: "Please ask the wizard to help our wife. If my wife can get better, we are willing to pay any price."

The wizard sighed and shook his head: "It's not easy. I'm afraid you won't believe me if I tell you about this kind of thing."

Mrs. Li hesitated for a moment, then muttered in a low voice, "Could it be that it was caused by a collision?" As he spoke, he glanced at Shen Yulan.

Shen Yushan raised her brows, a trace of excitement flashed through her eyes, and she also followed suit: "Yes, if there was no collision, how could there be such a situation?"

At this moment, everyone who heard the rumors couldn't help but change their expression slightly, looked at Shen Yulan quietly, and wondered in their hearts - could it be that there was a collision?
