Legend of Xianghuang
Chapter 6
Since Xianghuang had roughly thought about Wanwan's problem, it was naturally impossible for her to let Wanwan go to the garden together in the middle of the night.
Unable to persevere, Wanwan had no choice but to take a step back, and after finishing her much-delayed lunch, she led Xianghuang to Dongyuan to see Second Young Master Jia.
This time, even if Xianghuang didn't want Wanwan to risk approaching Dongyuan, which is not far from the garden, he had no choice but to nod to her gentle but undeniable gaze.
The food in Jia's mansion tastes good, and Xianghuang eats it with relish.
Seeing how she was feasting, Wanwan felt that even her own appetite improved a lot.
"Eat slowly." She smiled, glanced at the dishes on the table, and turned to Xiaotao, "Xiaotao, ask the kitchen to cook two more meat dishes."
Xiaotao glanced at it: "Yes, before they sent the kitchen here, they probably thought it was just for the young lady to use."
Seeing that Xiaotao was about to leave, Xianghuang swallowed quickly, "Sister Xiaotao, don't go." Seeing Xiaotao stop, she breathed a sigh of relief, and smiled embarrassedly at Wanwan, "I've always been a vegetarian too." From the previous two sentences, Xianghuang could think that Wanwan was also a vegetarian on weekdays.
Wanwan nodded and signaled Xiaotao to come back: "Then eat more, if you don't have enough, order someone to burn it."
"Where is it not enough? I can't eat two." Xianghuang said with a smile, looking at Wanwan's untouched food, blushing, and put the food from the plate into her bowl, "Don't just look at it." Me, eat quickly."
Wanwan looked down at the dishes in the bowl, smiled slightly, and picked up the bowl and chopsticks: "Okay."
What followed was an unexpectedly quiet meal.
Wan Wan held the bowl and ate slowly with chopsticks, every time the food ran out, Xiang Huang would add it immediately.
As for Xianghuang, she continued to deal with herself after serving Wanwan the food, she was so focused and serious without saying a word, if she hadn't been able to give Wanwan the food in time every time, it really made people think that she only had food in her eyes now.
Xiaotao, who was standing by the side, couldn't help looking at Xianghuang in surprise, seeing her childish and lively appearance, thinking that she would talk while eating.
But looking at it now, apart from being slightly faster, he is also decent, eating at the same table with his own lady, there is a sense of harmony comparable to that of the lady.
After a full meal, Xianghuang patted his stomach contentedly, saw Xiaotao came up to clean up the dishes, and hurriedly stood up: "Sister Xiaotao, let me help you."
"Don't." Xiaotao immediately refused, and glanced at Xianghuang, "You just need to settle the matter in our house, I'm enough for such a small matter."
"Xiang Huang will definitely do his best." Xiang Huang replied seriously.
Looking at Xianghuang again, Xiaotao couldn't help but mutter: "There's a lot of talk now, wasn't it quiet before?"
Xianghuang has good ears and eyes, so she heard Xiaotao's words clearly, and replied with a smile: "Master taught me not to talk when I eat or sleep. The same is true when I eat with Master, but—" She glanced at Wanwan, feeling Very good, "It's the first time I serve food for someone."
The master has always had no joys or sorrows, except for teaching Xianghuang, he doesn't talk too much to her. He is very strict on weekdays, and naturally he finishes the meal coldly, leaving a post-dinner order and then leaves on his own.
It was the first time Xiang Huang tried such a pleasant meal.Although she was also speechless, Wanwan looked at her with a gentle smile, especially when she was serving her food.
"Weird." Xiaotao looked at Xianghuang, then at her own lady who was looking at Xianghuang in a trance, muttered and left with the bowl and chopsticks.
Wanwan stood up and walked up to Xianghuang: "Does Xiaozhu like me?"
Xianghuang nodded immediately: "Of course I like it." Seeing Wanwan's smile deepened a little, she added, "Wanwan, you have the prettiest smile." I like it, I have nothing to hide.
"I like small bamboos too." Wanwan said with a smile, then turned and walked towards the door, "Let's go outside for a while to digest food, and then go to Second Brother's place."
It was still drizzling outside the house, and Xianghuang's height stood there, although he wanted to hold an umbrella, he was unable to do it, so he had to let Wanwan continue to support it.
"See you at the pond in the light rain, and you will know the wind." The two quietly walked around the pond, and then in front of the house, Wanwan took a look at Xianghuang and couldn't help chanting.
Xianghuang immediately looked down and saw that his outer sleeves were indeed wet, so he flicked them lightly: "My cultivation level is not enough, if I have [-]% of Master's, my clothes will dry immediately when they get wet." In the words, the respect for Master is obvious .
Wan Wan smiled, but didn't say much, and looked at Zhu Lin: "Now it's almost Shen Shi, let's go see Second Brother."
"Ah."
Accompanied by Wanwan, the eldest lady of the Jia family, Xianghuang did not see much resistance when entering Dongyuan.
Master Jia had seen his son leave long ago, and the housekeeper followed him to do other things, and the rest were the servant girls who accompanied the second young master on weekdays.
As soon as he stepped into the main room, Xianghuang immediately turned around to hold Wanwan's hand, but was startled by Wanwan's subconscious dodge, and then realized that his behavior was a little reckless, and said anxiously: "Go out first.
Wan Wan was not dissatisfied with Xiang Huang's abruptness, and followed her out of the main room without asking any further questions, leaving behind the guide maid who stood there stunned in astonishment.
Leaving the main room, seeing Xiang Huang walk a few steps and stop, Wanwan walked over and asked, "What happened just now? There is... something weird in the room?"
Xianghuang nodded first, then shook his head: "There's nothing inside, just a sinister aura. The second young master's illness is indeed caused by ghosts."
Because there is a sinister energy in that room, even though the source is not there, Xianghuang is still worried about letting Wanwan stay in there, who knows if the troublemaker can find out what's going on here?Don't be afraid of ten thousand, just in case.
"I understand, but it shouldn't be a problem standing under the sun, right?" Wanwan nodded, believing everything Xiang Huang said.
"Yeah, but it's better to go back earlier." Xianghuang replied, glanced at the disapproval between Wanwan's eyebrows, and immediately changed the subject, "I don't know how to discriminate against yellow. It is necessary to enter the house again, but I want to know the process of the second young master's emergency."
Since Wanwan is unwilling to leave now, Xianghuang knows that the most direct way is to fulfill the purpose of coming to Dongyuan immediately.But it was said that Second Young Master Jia was unconscious, so who should I ask?
Of course Wanwan is clear about this issue.
He ordered the maid who finally came out from the main room to call all the maids who waited on Young Master Jia's daily life for questioning.
Xianghuang stood aside and watched quietly. Wanwan's questioning was different from when she was talking to herself. Although she didn't speak harshly, her tone was still calm, but because of her indifferent expression, people dare not lie.That feeling... yes, just like what I heard in the carriage at the beginning, and I also want to feel like a fairy who can only look up and can't get close when I saw it at the door for the first time.
"Little Bamboo." Xianghuang listened, and suddenly realized that the fairy was calling herself.
When he came back to his senses, all the people in front of him were looking at him, Xianghuang was embarrassed and looked at Wanwan.
There was a bit of a smile in Wanwan's eyes, which made Xianghuang relax a little bit, without showing it on his face: "Little Zhuzi, do you have anything else to ask about what they said just now?" She was really suspicious, and this sudden Did the distracted little bamboo hear it?
However, at last Xiang Huang was unambiguous in matters of business, and looked at how many people seriously asked: "It's about your young master's life, you must tell the truth." The light had a somewhat intimidating aura, but it made a few people feel shocked and dare not ignore it, "Is there any death related to the second young master in the ten days, no matter whether it is human or animal."
Several people's eyes were blank, and one of them thought of the meaning of Xianghuang's question, and was a little frightened, and one of them shrank back, his face turned pale.
"You, come out." Wanwan looked at these people like Xianghuang, and before Xianghuang pointed out, Wanwan dragged them out, "Don't hide anything, or you will be locked in the garden tonight."
Locked into the garden, as soon as these words came out, the man's legs softened and he knelt down on the ground, and could only lie there, his whole body shaking like a sieve: "Miss, please forgive me, don't lock the villain into the garden!"
It looked like he was terrified.
"Say." Wanwan just looked at it lightly and spit out a word.
The man told everything he knew in detail, and it was much more than Wanwan and Xianghuang imagined.
Five days ago, the Second Young Master Jia took advantage of Master Jia's absence and forcibly kidnapped a woman into the mansion to take it for himself. However, the woman was so violent that she bit him hard and kicked him.
In a fit of rage, Master Jia Er took her forcibly and ordered someone to throw her scarred and bruised into an unused well in the garden, and ordered those who knew about it not to mention it again.
However, on the second night, something happened in Dongyuan. The puppy that Master Jia Er raised to play with died tragically for no reason, and someone once saw a woman in the mirror with a bloody face and disheveled hair. She looked very wet and horrified.
The Second Young Master Jia was also capable, so he immediately invited the great monk to chant sutras and seal the well, and nothing happened in Dongyuan after that.
Because he asked for secrecy at that time, Mr. Jia didn't notice it when he came back.
After asking about this matter, Wan Wan ordered the people concerned to be imprisoned, and left Dongyuan together with Xiang Huang.
Xianghuang could clearly feel Wanwan's anger. Although she tried her best to restrain herself, the sharp look on her brows and the almost imperceptible trembling showed this.
It's just that this is the Jia family's business. Xiang Huang thought about it and picked up another question: "Since someone has been asked to suppress it, I don't know why it happened again a few days later." Come back with resentment, there is absolutely no reason to suddenly be quiet for a few days.
"What do you mean?" Wanwan stopped and looked at Xianghuang.
"I saw in the garden before that there was a distance between the well and the old locust tree. Even if the female ghost hadn't been suppressed, she shouldn't have appeared on the old locust tree if she wanted to cause trouble." Originally, because it was attached to the old locust tree. The locust tree, Xianghuang, and some kind of ghost tend to be troublesome, but now all point to the tragic female ghost who once made trouble under the well.
However, even for that female ghost, there is still something that doesn't make sense.
"I'm going to the garden to see the well." After thinking for a while, Xianghuang made a decision.
Wanwan was about to say something, but was interrupted by footsteps ahead.
"Master Jia, don't worry, I'm a cultivator who must kill demons and eliminate demons. Tonight I will set up an altar, except for this troublesome female ghost." A smug voice came, and Wanwan and Xianghuang followed the sound and watched. Go, it's an old Taoist priest wearing a gossip Taoist talisman, coming here with Mr. Jia.
Unable to persevere, Wanwan had no choice but to take a step back, and after finishing her much-delayed lunch, she led Xianghuang to Dongyuan to see Second Young Master Jia.
This time, even if Xianghuang didn't want Wanwan to risk approaching Dongyuan, which is not far from the garden, he had no choice but to nod to her gentle but undeniable gaze.

From the previous two sentences, Xianghuang could think that Wanwan was also a vegetarian on weekdays.
Wanwan nodded and signaled Xiaotao to come back: "Then eat more, if you don't have enough, order someone to burn it."
"Where is it not enough? I can't eat two." Xianghuang said with a smile, looking at Wanwan's untouched food, blushing, and put the food from the plate into her bowl, "Don't just look at it." Me, eat quickly."
Wanwan looked down at the dishes in the bowl, smiled slightly, and picked up the bowl and chopsticks: "Okay."

"Don't." Xiaotao immediately refused, and glanced at Xianghuang, "You just need to settle the matter in our house, I'm enough for such a small matter."
"Xiang Huang will definitely do his best." Xiang Huang replied seriously.
