Upon hearing this, the eldest wife's eyes were filled with tears and she was extremely grateful.
The old man acted quickly and found a place to start the ritual that night.
After he finished, he calmly told the first wife and Chun Xiangjing to wait for the evil spirit in Ji Bohan's body to slowly dissipate, and gave the first wife a brocade bag containing a talisman, "As long as your son wears this every day, the evil spirit in his body will surely dissipate little by little."
"Thank you, Master." The eldest wife held the sachet tightly in her hand like a treasure.
She asked Chunxiang to give him the money. The old man's eyes widened when he saw the rustling of the dollars in the bag.
After sending the old man down the mountain, the eldest wife took advantage of Ji Baihan's deep sleep and put the brocade bag on him.
Yan Xi, who was awakened, looked at her actions, confused and didn't understand what she wanted to do.
The next morning, Ji Bohan woke up and found a golden pouch on his body. He was a little confused, "What is this?"
Yan Xi said, "Last night, when you were asleep, your mother came in and put it on you. It should be some kind of amulet or something."
"So that's how it is." Ji Bohan nodded and put it away.
The eldest wife was always worried about him, but Ji Boyan didn't want to make her worry, so he wore it obediently and didn't ask any questions.
But he found that the first wife always glanced at him for unknown reasons and asked some strange questions.
Ji Bohan answered them one by one.
Sometimes, the eldest wife would secretly observe him and found that not only did his condition not improve, but it became even worse, and he would even talk to himself in his sleep.
This scared her, and she quickly found the old man with white beard and questioned him.
The old man said quickly, "Madam, don't worry. Your son is like this because the evil spirit has entered his heart. My suggestion is to find him a wife to cheer him up and drive the evil spirit out completely."
The eldest wife hesitated for a moment, but for the sake of Ji Bohan's health, she chose to believe it.
After returning, she found an opportunity to talk to Master Ji and told him that Ji Bohan was not young anymore and it was time to find him a wife.
Master Ji said with a stern face: "How old is he? Why is he looking for a wife?"
The eldest wife choked and continued, "Han'er is too lonely. I just want to find him a companion of his own age to talk to, so that he won't get sick from being alone. Master, I beg you, even if it means getting him engaged. Han'er is always talking to himself because he's lonely. I'm afraid if this continues, his body won't be able to bear it."
As she spoke, the eldest wife's eyes became sore and she burst into tears.
Mr. Ji couldn't bear it and nodded in agreement.
But Ji Bohan was physically disabled and sickly, so no wealthy family was willing to marry their daughter to him. After searching for a long time, he found a family that was so poor that they had to sell their daughter.
The eldest wife bought the daughter from that family.
The girl has a nice name, Xia Meng, and she is twelve years old.
Xia Meng had a very distinctive appearance. Even though she was only twelve years old, one could vaguely see the shadow of a future beauty from her delicate facial features.
Xia Meng is well-behaved and sensible, very smart, and can do everything from washing clothes to cooking. Such a girl is very likable.
The eldest wife especially likes it.
The eldest wife told the Xia couple that they could come to the villa to see her during the holidays, but from then on, Xia Meng would be a member of the Ji family and must live there.
The Xia couple had no objection and were happy to let their daughter live in a wealthy family.
Xia Meng followed the eldest wife to the villa and met Ji Baihan.
At first, Ji Bohan was very polite to him.
But when he heard the first wife say that Xia Meng would be his fiancée in the future, his expression changed immediately.
"Mom, I'm still young, I don't want a fiancée."
"You kid, you said she's your fiancée, but I'm not asking you to get married now."
"But mother, I..."
"Don't say anything. I have made up my mind. Xia Meng will be my future daughter-in-law. You have to treat her well."
Ji Bohan looked at the eldest wife who had an expression that said "there is no room for negotiation", then looked at the reserved Xia Meng, and returned to his room in a depressed mood.
Isn't he ruining other people's lives by doing this?
However, the eldest wife kept trying to help them develop a relationship and asked Xia Meng to take care of him.
Xia Meng was very obedient and did as she was told.
But when he saw Ji Bohan lying on the bed with his lower body missing, he was so scared that he screamed on the spot with fear on his face.
Seeing this, Ji Bohan hurriedly covered himself with the quilt, his face gloomy, and said coldly: "Get out!"
Upon hearing this, Xia Meng crawled away.
When she was leaving the house, she accidentally bumped into someone and quickly apologized, "I'm sorry, I'm sorry."
Ji Boheng clapped his hands and helped her up, "I'm fine, you get up."
Xia Meng raised her head tremblingly, but when she saw the other person, she stood there stupidly, not knowing what to say.
Ji Boheng also looked at her and smiled slightly, "Who are you? Why have I never seen you before?"
"My name is Xia Meng, and today is my first day here." Xia Meng lowered her head, not daring to look him in the eye.
"So that's how it is." Ji Boheng bent down slightly and said with a smile, "Why do you keep your head down?"
Xia Meng clenched her hands nervously and said nothing.
Ji Boheng chuckled and said jokingly, "Is it because you're too beautiful and you're afraid I'll see you and like you?"
Hearing this, Xia Meng was stunned. She raised her head and looked at him with a smile. Her face suddenly turned red. "Me, beautiful?"
"Yes, it's very beautiful, so don't lower your head anymore." Ji Baiheng curved his eyes.
Xia Meng slowly curved her lips and smiled, nodding, "Yeah!"
