Mr. Feng Shui of the Republic of China
Chapter 17
Xia Jingsheng nodded, and Sun Wenxi opened the gift box, and inside was a Xi doll wearing a red bellyband.
That Xiwawa's face was somewhat similar to He Kaipin's, but the eyes that were supposed to be filled with joy looked a little gloomy.
"Strange, why is there only one Xiwa?" Sun Wenxi wondered, "Shouldn't it be a couple?"
"Because this is not Xiwa." Xia Jingsheng looked at He Ming coldly, "Uncle, did He Kaipin have a lover before?"
He Ming twitched the corner of his mouth: "Of course, Kaipin and Yilian..."
"I'm not referring to Miss Duan Yilian, but someone else..." Xia Jingsheng interrupted He Ming with a more serious expression.
"This..." He Ming showed embarrassment.
Xia Jingsheng's expression turned cold, he pointed to the doll in the box expressionlessly and said, "This is a debt collection doll."
It is said that children are the debts of their parents in previous lives, and the debt collection doll comes from this saying.According to legend, there was a man in the old days who doted on his concubine and killed his wife.His wife gave birth to a young daughter who was ill. He imprisoned the mother and daughter in a side room, ignored them, and did not ask a doctor for her daughter. Soon after, the young daughter passed away, and his wife hanged herself because of the blow.Since then, the side room has been vacant, but the male owner can hear someone asking in his ear every day: "Dad, why don't you want me and Mom?"
No matter where the male master goes, this voice always follows him.In the end, the male host couldn't bear the pressure and committed suicide.After the death of the male owner, the house became a haunted house. After many years, it was bought by a wealthy family.
After that, the servants in the house said that every time they passed by the side room, they would hear the cry of the little girl from inside, but when they opened the door of the side room, there was no one inside.The housekeeper ordered someone to clean the side room thoroughly, but found nothing, only found an abandoned doll under the bed, with long black hair and big ignorant eyes...
Everyone said that it was the baby who came back to collect debts for the little master.
"Uncle, tell me, who is the person who gave the doll trying to collect debts for?" Xia Jingsheng's voice was not rushed, but it made people feel chills all over his body.
He Ming took two steps back with horror on his face: "It's He Niang! It's He Niang who is back!"
"He Niang?" Xia Jingsheng felt that the name was somewhat familiar, but he couldn't remember where he had heard it.
He Ming sighed, and ordered someone to fetch half an old photo that was yellowed.
The woman in the photo is wearing an exquisite embroidered cheongsam, with a slender figure, a charming smile, and a pair of dimples on her cheeks.
"She is He Niang." He Ming looked at the photo with regret, "Kaipin likes her very much."
"Since you like it, why...?" Sun Wenxi asked puzzled.
"He Niang is good in everything, she is beautiful and has a good temperament, but she was born in a brothel..."
Both Sun Wenxi and Xia Jingsheng were startled, but immediately understood.
Even if He Niang is kind in every way, she cannot be with He Kaipin.
The He family absolutely does not allow a brothel girl to enter the door. For such an aristocratic family, He Niang's status is not enough to be a concubine, let alone a regular wife.
He Ming: "At that time, the He family and the Duan family were already talking about getting married. I originally thought that since Kaipin liked it, then it would be good to have He Niang as a concubine after Kaipin got married. Unexpectedly, He Niang She is pregnant, and the Duan family is determined not to allow He Niang to give birth to the child, otherwise the marriage contract will be broken."
Xia Jingsheng: "The child was aborted"
He Ming: "Difficult labor, the birth was stillborn, and He Niang's life was not saved."
He Ming looked at the debt collection doll, and said anxiously: "This is He Niang who came back to collect debts. After all, our He family is sorry for her."
"Stillborn?" Xia Jingsheng asked, "Where is it buried now?"
Now that the matter has come to this, He Ming has no choice but to lead the people to He Niang's burial place.
He Niang was buried with the child, and a simple sign was erected at the foot of a remote mountain.
"There are traces of being turned over here." Sun Wenxi bent down and took a closer look.
After a closer look, He Ming also found something wrong, frowned and said, "It seems that someone has turned it over."
Xia Jingsheng lowered his eyes and said, "Dig it out."
He Ming was startled, and stopped him with words: "This... I'm afraid it's not right."
Xia Jingsheng said coldly: "If the gift box contained a debt collection doll, it must have been contaminated with the breath of He Kaipin's flesh and blood. But if He Niang gave birth to a stillborn baby, it means that someone put the doll in the grave for a long time .”
He Ming's face changed slightly, and he didn't speak any more.
The servants obeyed the order and dug up the grave. The He family finally had some conscience and prepared a thin coffin for He Niang.
After such a long time, the corpse has long since become a skeleton.
There are two large and small skeletons, which can be easily distinguished by the naked eye.
Sun Wenxi glanced at it, and said with a smile: "Mr. He, it seems that you are not telling the truth. This small one is clearly not a human skeleton, but a feline skeleton."
Sun Wenxi had studied anatomy abroad, so he could spot any improper skeleton at a glance.
He Ming's face was livid. At first, he still had the idea of muddling through, but now Sun Wenxi gave it to him.
There is nothing else in the coffin except for two large and small skeletons.
Xia Jingsheng pointed to the gift box in the servant's hand, and looked at He Ming indifferently with his eyes: "Take a closer look, is there any child's stuff on the doll?"
He Ming stared at the doll for a moment, and at some point his pupils shrank sharply.
"It's the longevity rope. The longevity rope in the doll's hand belongs to the child." He Ming said hoarsely.
"That's true." Xia Jingsheng closed his eyes.
He Ming was concerned about the safety of He Kaipin, so he hurriedly asked, "Can my son be saved?"
Xia Jingsheng glanced at him: "The law of heaven reincarnates, and the son's debt is paid by the father. Fortunately, you still have a conscience, and you didn't kill He Kaipin's own flesh and blood, otherwise the god Da Luo would not be able to save him."
He Ming breathed a sigh of relief, and immediately said: "This matter has nothing to do with Kaipin, it's all my idea, and Kaipin dare not disobey my words."
Xia Jingsheng sneered: "If He Kaipin dies, and you white-haired send a black-haired one, isn't it retribution?"
He Ming was frightened for a while, his legs were so weak that he could hardly stand up.
When He Niang gave birth that day, she begged him hard to let the child go.Because of dystocia, the child was born thin and small, and looked as if he would not live long, and He Niang herself could only hold her breath.
His heart softened, and he agreed to He Niang's plea, but the child has been fostered in the brothel since then, and has nothing to do with the He family.
Back at He's house, He Ming laid down the altar according to his words, and the debt collection doll was placed in the middle of the altar.
After washing his hands, Xia Jingsheng pointed at the doll with his index finger and middle finger, and said loudly: "He Kaipin is terminally ill, you may forgive him."
Under the watchful eyes of everyone, the doll's originally sinister eyebrows and eyes suddenly moved, and the eyeballs sewn with cloth moved, and they actually took on a human look.
Everyone could read a trace of sadness from its face inexplicably.
After a while, the baby nodded slowly, and fell limp.
When everyone looked again, the doll's eyes had become dull.
He Kaipin, who had been shivering under the blanket, finally calmed down.
"What's wrong with the opening?" He Ming panicked.
"Calm down and fall asleep." Xia Jingsheng said, "There is still a trace of the child's resentment on this doll. Now that the resentment has disappeared, the child's fate with your He family is also gone. From now on, you will return home The bridge, the way back to the way, has nothing to do with it."
He Ming only cared about He Kaipin's situation, he didn't have the heart to take care of the child, he agreed with the flow, but he never left the person on the bed for a moment.
After a long while, He Ming, who had solved his worries, served Xia Jingsheng tea himself: "Nephew, who is so vicious to use that debt collection doll to kill Kaipin?"
Xia Jingsheng pondered for a moment, then said, "Who else knows the inside story about He Niang?"
"Except for a few servants, no one knows." He Ming called all the servants who knew the inside story to the front hall.
Xia Jingsheng looked at them one by one, and found nothing abnormal.
He frowned slightly and shook his head.
"What?" Sun Wenxi asked upon seeing this.
"The debt collection doll is cursed, and the person who casts the curse will be backlashed. Those who are backlashed have red eyes, sallow faces, festered skin, and splitting headaches."
"His eyes are red, his face is sallow..." Sun Wenxi muttered, then suddenly raised his eyes and said, "It's him?"
As soon as the words finished, I saw a servant girl running towards the front hall in a panic, and said in a loud voice: "It's not good, the young master has passed out."
In an instant, Xia Jingsheng understood what Sun Wenxi meant.
"You mean... He Kaicheng?"
He Kaicheng's eyes were indeed bloodshot and his face was sallow. Xia Jingsheng thought he was working hard to prepare for the Chamber of Commerce activities, and didn't think in the direction of casting a curse.
Sun Wenxi: "When He Kaicheng was picking up his business card, I saw a damaged photo in his wallet. Now that I think about it, the person in the photo is He Niang."
"He Kaicheng and He Niang know each other!" Xia Jingsheng frowned, vaguely having some clues.
"Put the photo in the wallet, I'm afraid not only getting to know He Niang, but He Niang is also very important to him." Sun Wenxi said.
The two young masters fell ill one after another, the He family was already in chaos, and the servants carried He Kaicheng back to the room with a spring stool.
Xia Jingsheng frowned as soon as he checked his pulse.
He Kaicheng was a young man, but his pulse showed no vitality at all, his body suffered a lot.
Xia Jingsheng spread out his palms, and He Ming on the side screamed, "How could this happen?!"
At He Kaicheng's lifeline, there was a hole for no reason, the wound was extremely deep, it didn't look like it was injured by a sharp weapon, but it seemed to be split open by itself.
The originally smooth lifeline was cut in half like this.
"Is there still help?" He Ming moved his eyes and said in a trembling voice.
Xia Jingsheng sighed lightly, and shook his head: "There is no way to solve the backlash. He Kaicheng is going against the sky like this, and he will be punished by the heavens. Fortunately, He Kaipin saved his life, so he is not guilty of death, but his physical problems , is irreversible."
In other words, a good young man is from now on like an old man in old age.The eldest son of the He family, who had been placed with high hopes, was just abolished.
He Ming never imagined that the person who caused He Kaipin was actually his adopted son whom he had always relied on. Feeling pain and regret in his heart, he stabbed the ground a few times with his crutches, but he still couldn't hold on, and closed his eyes Then he fell backwards.
As soon as He Ming fell, the backbone of the He family disappeared instantly.When people were panicking, the Duan family had already torn up a marriage contract and accused the He family of ruining Duan Yilian's reputation.
In the future, when the big drama ends, chickens will fly and dogs will jump, so let's not mention it for now.
That Xiwawa's face was somewhat similar to He Kaipin's, but the eyes that were supposed to be filled with joy looked a little gloomy.
"Strange, why is there only one Xiwa?" Sun Wenxi wondered, "Shouldn't it be a couple?"
"Because this is not Xiwa." Xia Jingsheng looked at He Ming coldly, "Uncle, did He Kaipin have a lover before?"
He Ming twitched the corner of his mouth: "Of course, Kaipin and Yilian..."
"I'm not referring to Miss Duan Yilian, but someone else..." Xia Jingsheng interrupted He Ming with a more serious expression.
