Chapter 328
The old Taoist was invited into the Wu Mansion.Steward Wu personally led the old Taoist to the small courtyard where Mrs. Wu Ye lived.The old man squinted his eyes and looked outside for a moment, then walked back.

Butler Wu accompanied him and carefully asked, "I don't know what the boss saw?"

The old Taoist didn't speak at that time, and when he returned to the room arranged for him, he said to Guanshi Wu, "The ghosts making trouble here have too much resentment and hostility, that's why your master is bedridden in such a short period of time. To subdue it, not only the old Taoist has to set up an altar to expel the ghost, but your master also has to do two things to appease the ghost."

Wu Guanshi then said, "If you have something to say, just say it."

The old Taoist fiddled with the sleeves of his Taoist robe, "Prepare your pen and ink."

A young servant quickly came in with a pen, ink and paper, polished the ink well, and then withdrew.

The old man leaned over the desk, quickly wrote a few lines, dried the ink, folded the paper three times, and handed it to Butler Wu who was beside him, "Give it to your master." He took out two talismans from the cage and handed them to Wu as well. Butler, "Stick the talisman on the head of the bed to ensure your master sleeps soundly at night. After dawn, take off the talisman and burn it to ashes. Rinse it with warm water and let your master drink it."

Butler Wu kept his doubts in his heart, bid farewell to the old man, and walked towards the courtyard of the second room.When passing through the garden, he met Mr. Wu, and he stopped to greet him.

Master Wu put his hands behind his back, "Where is this going?"

Butler Wu said the matter.

Master Wu said, "Bring it up."

Butler Wu handed over the paper that the old man gave him to Master Wu.

Master Wu took it over, unfolded it to read, immediately grimaced, and threw the paper back to Butler Wu, "Don't mention that you have met Master Ben, just hand the letter to the second lady."

Butler Wu promised nonchalantly, picked up the fallen paper and stepped back respectfully.

Master Wu added, "If you see this letter, how will the second wife react, just report it. Besides, keep an eye on that old man."

Butler Wu promised to step back.

The letter written by the old Taoist reached Wu Yeshi. After Wu Yeshi read it, his pale face became even more ugly, and he almost fainted.Panting heavily, she lay down weakly supported by her mother-in-law.Involuntarily, tears flowed from the corners of her eyes.In this life, what she regrets the most is that when she was young, she met an unkind person, went blind, and entrusted the wrong life.Those unspeakable things are now her debt. She is sick and has to clean up the mess for the goddam man in prison.She is unwilling, she hates.

At night, Wu Yeshi only kept the nanny who came over as a dowry by her side, and let everyone else retreat.

Wu Yeshi wept silently, "Nurse, Zi Niang was young and ignorant back then, she didn't listen to the nanny's persuasion, and insisted on getting along with the master. Now, Zi Niang regrets her mistakes, but it's too late."

Mother Ye gently wiped away tears for Wu Yeshi, while persuading in a low voice, "Miss, everyone in this world does not make a few mistakes, everything must look forward, even if it is a mistake, you must hold your head high and move forward. You Look, the two young masters are both filial and promising, in the future, only you will enjoy the blessings. Just put aside those troubles, for the sake of the two young masters, you have to get through this."

Wu Yeshi nodded, and handed the paper given by the old Taoist to Mother Ye.Mother Ye looked at it, and quickly looked at Wu Yeshi's face, her heart was in a mess and she didn't know what to do, she said hesitantly, "Miss, this matter is not credible."

There was undisguised hatred in Wu Yeshi's eyes, "Although the master refuses to admit it, I know very well that the master did take a large sum of money from Ye Lan a few years ago. Otherwise, how could he get it at that time?" He paid four to five thousand taels of silver to secretly buy a private house in the middle of Beijing and raise little goblins. In the end, all the debts he owed were on my head, how could I swallow this!"

Mother Ye asked with a sad face, "Miss, is the Taoist's words trustworthy?"

Wu Yeshi sighed faintly, "'If you want to drive away the grieving ghost, you must first pay off the property owed to the grieving ghost, and pay homage to its dead soul once, and then drive it away with half the effort. If you don't weaken its resentment a little bit, The poor Taoist can't guarantee that it can be completely expelled.' Mom, with this sentence, I have no doubts in the Taoist priest. Few people in this world know that the master reached out to Ye Lan for money. Taoist priest Being able to figure this out proves that he is indeed powerful.”

Mother Ye reminded hesitantly, "Miss, don't forget that Gu Qingshu mentioned asking the master to pay back the money some time ago. Could this priest be sent by Gu Qingshu?"

Wu Yeshi frowned and thought for a while, then quickly shook his head, "No. Then Gu Qingshu mentioned only 800 taels, in fact, it was more than that. This shows that Gu Qingshu was just defrauding Mrs. Ben at that time. Not sure."

Mother Ye thought of something, "Miss, this Gu Qingshu is too quiet, I'm afraid it's not a good thing."

Wu Yeshi closed her eyes weakly and said, "She is just accumulating strength. She understands that it will not be so easy to bring down the Wu Mansion. Send someone to keep an eye on her. I want to take the first step before she gets into trouble. I want to Let her never recover."

Mother Ye responded and asked how to deal with the long letter.

Wu Yeshi said in a low voice, "Put it under my pillow. Besides, let shopkeeper Ye come to see Mrs. Ben before noon tomorrow. No matter how reluctant I am, I have to grit my teeth and pay back the debt. Remember, don't disturb anyone, don't let your parents I know, and don’t let the two young masters know. In any case, don’t let the young masters know about the foolish things the master did.”

After a while, Wu Yeshi, who firmly believed in the old Taoist priest, asked Mother Ye, "Is the magic talisman given by the Taoist pasted?"

Nanny Ye said it was done, and she wanted Wu Yeshi to sleep peacefully.I don't know if it's a psychological effect or what, but after a while, Wu Yeshi unexpectedly fell asleep.

Mother Ye was overjoyed, and bowed to the talisman pasted on Wu Ye's bedside. She felt that the Taoist priest she had invited was indeed not an ordinary person, and had great abilities.She was only happy, and didn't notice that there was a person hiding behind the screen. This person had heard the previous conversation between her and Wu Yeshi clearly.

When Nanny Ye, who was sitting in front of the bed and guarding Wu Yeshi, began to doze off, a maid who was hiding behind the screen quietly went out.

Not long after, Butler Wu went to see Master Wu to report the incident.

After listening to Master Wu, his brows were tightly frowned, and finally he cursed the bastard, and said nothing more.

On the second day, Wu Yeshi, who had slept soundly all night, looked much better.After she washed up, Mother Ye passed the meal.A maid came in with three dishes, one soup and a bowl of white rice, and Mammy Ye set the meal herself.The maid serving the food took advantage of Mammy Ye's inattention, nodded slightly to Mrs. Wu Ye, then immediately lowered her head, and quietly retreated out after Mammy Ye had prepared the meal.

Wu Yeshi ate his breakfast calmly, and after a little tidying up, he was helped by the maid to greet Master Wu and Mrs. Wu.

Mrs. Wu persuaded Wu Yeshi not to come to greet An Yunyun until she was in poor health, and at the same time reprimanded the eldest lady and the third lady, saying that they would not come to greet An Yunyun if they were healthy or ill.
