Chapter 80: A 360-degree transformation
Qi Xu stood there without moving. She was not a soft-hearted person and wanted to see if her sincerity was enough.
"Sister-in-law Jiang, I promise I will never slander An An again."
"No, that's not right. I will never let An An continue to bear the blame for the disaster. Sister Jiang, please believe me."
After experiencing this, the middle-aged woman became timid, but for some reason she was now crying bitterly and making a big confession.
Li Jianguo also knelt down and asked for forgiveness.
"Okay, since you're so sincere, come here and stretch out your hand so I can see it."
Qi Xu also knew that this incident was a great shock to the woman, and she must have been quite frightened in the illusion.
The moment she raised her hand and grasped the blood bracelet, she felt the power of the remaining soul.
Not only that, there are also some five elements mixed in the blood bracelet.
Qi Xu's eyes were filled with joy. "Don't worry, there are still some remaining souls in the bracelet. I will have a good chat with it."
Jiang Hongyi did not miss her smile, and knowing that she always kept her word, he stepped forward and helped Li Jianguo, who was kneeling beside her, up.
"Don't worry, Qi Xu has a way. Let's wait in the yard first."
As he spoke, Jiang Hongyi calmly pushed Li Jianguo with one hand and pulled the child with the other. The three of them walked out of the house and thoughtfully closed the door.
"Come, sit on the bed, close your eyes, and stretch out your hand with the bracelet."
"Remember, no matter what sound you hear, don't be afraid. I'm here to protect you."
Qi Xu gave her instructions, comforted her, and helped her sit on the edge of the bed.
When Li Jianguo's wife calmed down a little, she began to try to use her consciousness to connect with the soul on the blood bracelet.
After communicating with them, they learned that the owner of the blood bracelet was originally the legitimate daughter of a prestigious nobleman, but was framed by her father's concubine and slept with a stable boy.
But his father only believed his concubine's hypocritical one-sided words, beat her with thirty sticks according to the family law, threw her into the woodshed and left her to fend for herself.
However, when she was dying, her father's concubine sent her a poisonous herb, saying that the master disliked her and thought she was embarrassing and ruining the family's reputation, so it would be best to be sensible and end it all.
She completely lost hope of living and drank the crested red wine in one gulp. Finally, all the blood she vomited was absorbed by the bracelet on her wrist and turned into the blood bracelet she has today.
The reason why her soul has not disappeared is that after her death, her father's concubine said something to her father and directly threw her body into a mass grave, leaving her without a burial place.
Her only request now is that her body be buried and a tombstone be erected to restore her name.
After hearing the story, Qi Xu's eyes couldn't help but moisten, "I promise you, but wearing this bracelet on my hand will make it easier for us to communicate."
The soul in the blood bracelet was not unreasonable. When it heard that Qi Xu could help it fulfill its wish, it obediently took it off Li Jianguo's wrist when Qi Xu tried to take off the bracelet again.
Li Jianguo's wife was shaking like a sieve throughout the whole process.
"Okay, okay, you're safe now."
Qi Xu patted her shoulder to comfort her, and then put the blood bracelet on his wrist.
But Li Jianguo's wife's whole body was still trembling. There was no way, Qi Xu could only help her out of the bedroom.
After going out, Jiang Hongyi saw at a glance that the bracelet was on Qi Xu's hand, and he took two big strides forward.
"How did this bracelet come into your hands?"
When Qi Xu looked up, she saw his eyes full of concern, and her heart softened unconsciously.
She placed her hand on the back of Jiang Hongyi's hand and patted it, smiling broadly, "Don't worry, I have the little ghost here. The soul on the blood bracelet can't affect me."
Li Jianguo's wife's attitude now changed completely. Qi Xu walked around the yard, stopping and checking, and had no intention of interrupting.
Jiang Hongyi just followed her silently and accompanied her to check the yard.
"Does your child often cry in the middle of the night, or break out in rashes from time to time?"
After Qi Xu finished walking around the yard, he looked at the furnishings in several rooms and found that there were some serious problems.
"Yes, yes, yes, Sister Jiang, how did you know? You are simply amazing!"
Li Jianguo's wife now looks at Qi Xu with complete admiration, and even her eyes are full of trust.
"I've noticed you're still too stingy. Your house is full of chipped things. These chipped bowls, empty bottles, and cracked water jars need to all be thrown away."
"Also, if you want to keep the empty flower pots, plant some flowers and plants in them. Use the empty bottles to store things, and try not to leave them empty."
"Your family's luck has been destroyed by these rubbish."
"And you, don't pick up things randomly in the future. Do you have any dolls at home that you found but no one wants?"
The last sentence is not a question, but an affirmative sentence.
"I...ahem...I do have one at home."
Although Li Jianguo's wife's eyes flickered, she acted much faster. In a blink of an eye, she took out a cloth doll with one eye missing from the small bedroom and stuffed it straight into Qi Xu's hand.
Qi Xu looked at the doll in her hand. As expected, her guess was right. The child's poor physical condition was caused by the doll.
"I really don't know what to say to you. This isn't the way you save money for the family. This baby is obviously abandoned, and you picked it up and didn't even sew up one of its eyes. It's a wonder the child is healthy."
"Yes, yes, Mrs. Jiang is teaching me a lesson. From now on, I will definitely watch my wife and not let her pick up things randomly."
Li Jianguo now obeys Qi Xu's orders, and even his wife bows her head and accepts his scolding.
Only when Jiang Hongyi saw Qi Xu, his eyes were full of admiration, as if he was looking at a glowing night pearl.
"By the way, Li Jianguo, the small vegetable garden in your yard needs to be moved. Buy a pomegranate tree and plant it here to improve your family's fortune."
Qi Xu's attention was all on how to improve Li Jianguo's fortune, and he didn't notice the look in Jiang Hongyi's eyes.
After instructing Li Jianguo and the others on the places to pay attention to when furnishing their homes, Qi Xu prepared to go directly to the location described by the blood bracelet.
"No, no, no, Sister Jiang, please don't leave yet."
After Li Jianguo's wife said this, she ran into the inner room in a panic, just when everyone was confused.
She walked out quickly with a red cloth bag in her hand, "Thank you, Sister Jiang, for saving me despite past grudges. This is a small gift from my family, you must take it."
After saying that, he stuffed the red cloth bag into Qi Xu's hand, not allowing him to refuse.
Qi Xu did not refuse. According to custom, after the ceremony, the host family would need to give some money.
She accepted the red cloth bag, said a few polite words, and said goodbye to them together with Jiang Hongyi.
"This is, why don't you go back first?"
Jiang Hongyi looked at her and felt a little puzzled as she was not walking towards her own yard.
