Chapter 716: Don’t Come Over
When Yan Ruzhuang heard the master’s words, she hurriedly shook her head. “No, our family rules are strict. Even if a servant were to make a mistake, we wouldn’t take the other party’s life. They would be chased out at most. My mother’s granny and maidservants are also fine. There are no accidents.”
Xie Qiao frowned.
Master Yan could not help but have his lips twitched.
See, it was all a lie.
This courtyard was filthy. There were many clumps of black energy, like… unformed spirits. In addition, there should be a rather powerful spirit inside. It was inside the house, and that aura… could not be restrained.
“Can I go in and take a look?” Xie Qiao asked again.
Yan Ruzhuang nodded.
At this time, her mother should be embroidering in front of the window, right?
She was always like that. Occasionally, she would embroider and bask in the sun. It was very quiet, but all of a sudden, she would go crazy. In the past few years, even she was sometimes afraid to get close, let alone her younger sister.
The room was very clean. When Xie Qiao saw the furnishings in the room, she could immediately feel that this Imperial Censor Yan really doted on his wife.
There were no sharp and dangerous objects in the room. For instance, ceramics. Even the teacups were made of wood. He was probably worried that his wife would accidentally hurt herself when she went crazy.
In addition, there were some flowers in the room. They were beautiful and made people feel comfortable.
Yan Ruzhuang had already asked the granny and maid servants to leave. Therefore, at this moment, there was only Madam Yan in the room.
When Xie Qiao saw Madam Yan, she subconsciously took a step back.
She was not frightened by Madam Yan, but by the ghoul clinging to her body.
The ghoul was almost attached to her body, and its face overlapped with Madam Yan’s. However, perhaps it was because the sun was shining or Madam Yan was in a good mood, and her spirit was quite strong, so this ghoul could not possess her completely. Just like that, it became a shadow and followed Madam Yan’s movements.
This ghoul was a bit scary.
Her eyes were black and blue, and her lower body was blood red. Blood that could not be seen by ordinary people dripped on the ground.
Her stomach… was cut open.
Some unknown part was hanging inside. It was a bloody mess, and her clothes were also torn into pieces. As Madam Yan moved, the thing in her body seemed to fall off, and she bent down to pick it up.
“Mother.” Yan Ruzhuang walked over and looked at his mother sewing her sister’s clothes.
Madam Yan’s face was a little pale. “Is Zhuang’er back? You’re just in time. Help me take a look. Is the color nice? Does it suit your sister?”
Yan Ruzhuang’s eyes were a little red. “Mother, it is.”
After his mother gave birth to his sister, she did not dare to get too close to her sister, afraid that she might accidentally hurt her.
Her mother’s health was lacking, and she often fell ill. However, she missed her child. Every time, the four of them did not dare to get together with her mother, causing her mother to feel sad.
However, even if they came over, her mother would often push them away.
She knew that she was sick, so she was afraid that she might accidentally hurt them.
“As long as it fits.” Madam Yan sighed and looked at Master Mo by the door. Seeing her clothes, she was a little puzzled. “Zhuang’er brought a guest?”
“Yes, Mother. This is Master Mo, a very famous Taoist master in the capital. She’s here to see you.”
Madam Yan was a little surprised. “Taoist master? Why would your father…”
Halfway through her words, Madam Yan’s expression suddenly changed.
“Go away! Go away and don’t come over!
“You’re a monster! A monster…” She pointed at Yan Ruzhuang and suddenly began to shout. She threw away the clothes in her hands and brandished them. Her already pale face became even more pale and exhausted.
