The eldest daughter-in-law of the Gao family rushed over, patted him on the head, and scolded him, "Where have you been? I've been looking for you everywhere but you can't find me!"

Gao Dabao's face turned pale. He clutched his mother's hand tightly and trembled with fear. "Mom, mom, there's a female ghost! There's a female ghost!"

The eldest daughter-in-law of the Gao family widened her eyes, "Female ghost? How could there be a female ghost? I think you ran out to play by yourself, and you are acting here!"

Gao Dabao was so scared that he started to cry, "I was just looking for the toilet, but I accidentally went to the east wing. There was a woman in white clothes and long hair. It was so scary..."

Xie Ling frowned, squatted in front of Gao Dabao, and asked, "Don't cry, Dabao, take us to see it, okay?"

Gao Dabao nodded with sobs, pulled Xie Ling's sleeve, and led her to the east wing.

Xie Ling hugged him tightly, and the little boy felt very safe.

Qianniang and the other eldest daughters-in-law of the Gao family behind them looked very pleased.

No wonder these kids like Xie Ling so much.

Look, she is so gentle and soothing, and she coaxed Gao Dabao into being obedient.

The eldest daughter-in-law of the Gao family leaned close to Jiang Wanyi's ear and said, "Although I am already a mother of two children, I am really not as good as Miss Xie in educating children."

Jiang Wanyi chuckled, "Although Xie Ling always has a cold face, she is actually very gentle at heart and knows how to teach children.

Gu Li and Ru Jieer from the Gu family are both independent and well-educated, and they are likable just by looking at them. "

Qianniang agreed with a smile: "My son is the same. He talks about Xie Ling every day. Today he says that Sister Xie Ling has made delicious food again, and tomorrow he says that Sister Xie Ling took them to play somewhere... He is closer to them than a mother like me!"

Jiang Wanyi sighed: "If there is a chance, I would also like Xie Ling to teach my brat. Xie Ling's views and thoughts on everything are really unique..."

As the three of them were talking, they had already arrived at the east wing.

Looking at the dark yard and remembering Gao Dabao's words, the three of them felt that the wind was colder than outside.

These three people would have been mothers in ancient times, but in modern times they are still young girls who have just entered college, so they are naturally afraid of ghosts.

You hold my hand and I hold your hand, we are close together and look so cute.

It was in stark contrast to Xie Ling in front.

Xie Ling had a calm expression as she glanced around the courtyard like a cold female warrior.

"Dabao, where is the female ghost you mentioned?"

Dabao's chubby little hands tightly grasped Xie Ling's sleeves, his legs shaking unconsciously, "In the corner! On the swing!"

Xie Ling patted his head and said, "Don't be afraid, I'm here."

After saying that, he raised his foot and walked forward.

Jiang Wanyi and others behind immediately followed, wishing they could stick to Xie Ling.

Woo woo Xie Ling wait, we are scared!

Don't leave us!

The cold moonlight sprinkled on the ground, and the vegetation in the yard became tilted and desolate due to the flood.

In the dark corner, there stands a tall swing.

Sitting on the swing was a woman in white, with long black hair hanging down her back, and her figure was as thin and slender as a piece of paper.

"ah!"

“Help!”

"Mom! Help!"

Three different high-pitched screams were heard.

Xie Ling rubbed his brows, walked forward calmly, and patted the woman in white on the back.

Gao Dabao was so scared that his legs were trembling and he stuttered.

"Sister Xie Ling, how dare you take pictures of ghosts! I'm scared!"

Xie Ling said to the woman in white with a cold voice, "There are no ghosts in the world, only people pretending to be ghosts. Who are you?"

The woman chuckled and turned around.

Gao Dabao was so frightened that he nearly fainted, and collapsed into a puddle of mud.

Xie Ling frowned.

how so……..

There were seven or eight ugly scars across the woman's fair face.

The skin and flesh were turned inside out, hovering on her palm-sized face like a centipede, like a Shura.

The white-clothed woman's eyes were light and without a trace of color. "Who are you? I have never seen you before."

Xie Ling felt a flash of sympathy in her heart. "We are travelers staying here. Sorry to bother you."

The woman in white raised a sneer at the corner of her lips, touched her face, and looked at Gao Dabao, "Kid, am I scary?"

When Gao Dabao saw that she was talking, he naturally knew that she was not a female ghost.

Her round face was full of apology, "I'm sorry, I'm timid, I didn't mean to mistake you for a female ghost..."

The woman in white shook her head.

"It's okay. Even I get scared when I look in the mirror, let alone a little kid like you."

Jiang Wanyi and others also came over, and when they saw the scars on her face, they all showed looks of pity and sympathy.

The eldest daughter-in-law of the Gao family asked, "Sister, who are you to the Wu family? The Wu family doesn't allow us to come to the east wing. Is it because of you?"

The eldest daughter-in-law of the Gao family was enthusiastic and kind, and she guessed that the Wu family might have imprisoned and harmed the woman, so they wouldn't let them come. If that was the case, they would definitely report it to the police!

It's so sad that such a beautiful girl has been treated like this!

Jiang Wanyi pursed her lips, looked at the woman's face, and stared at her eyes.

The woman in white had a pair of slender, clear eyes, as if she could see what the eldest daughter-in-law of the Gao family was thinking.

She said calmly, "The Wu family treats me very well. I am the daughter-in-law bought by the Wu family. I didn't let you come over because I was afraid that you would be scared by me."

Only then did the eldest daughter-in-law of the Gao family feel relieved.

Jiang Wanyi bit her lip and asked, "Miss, is your last name Nangong?"

Unexpectedly, the originally cold and peaceful woman in white suddenly became crazy after hearing these words and looked fiercely at Jiang Wanyi.

His eyes were red, and he grabbed her sleeve tightly. "You are from Dongling, and you know the Nangong family? Miss, can you take me back to Dongling? I will definitely thank you handsomely!"

Jiang Wanyi was frightened. "I, I'm not from Dongling, I'm from Beijiang. I just think you look like a portrait in my home..."

Xie Ling was puzzled by the sudden riot of the woman in white. She frowned and said, "Since you have a family, why did you appear in the pawnshop? Were you abducted?"

Tears of blood flowed from the eyes of the woman in white, her hands were clenched tightly into a ball, and her chest heaved up and down.

Qianniang calmed her down, "Don't be anxious, young lady. We are really not from Dongling. Do you have any unspeakable secrets?"

The woman in white didn't know what she was thinking about. She held her head, her face full of pain and her eyes filled with deep hatred.

Xie Ling walked forward and immediately gave her acupuncture to relieve her pain.

But after taking her pulse, he found that the woman's body was so broken.

All her internal organs were damaged, and even her bones had been broken inch by inch. No wonder her posture when sitting on the swing was so strange.

If he had met Xie Ling earlier, he might have been saved, but it's too late now.

She is a doctor, not a deity. Even a deity cannot save this woman’s body…

Judging from the situation, his life span may not even be more than a month...

Xie Ling sighed and gave her acupuncture wholeheartedly to relieve her pain.

At the same time, he looked at Jiang Wanyi and asked, "What's the matter with the portrait you mentioned?"
