Chapter 1053 The Strange Goddess
"But I really have something urgent to do with the witch."
Jiang Wan spoke in an urgent tone, and Mu Xiang took out a purse from her sleeve and put it directly into the hand of the woman in plain clothes.
A glimmer of greed flashed across the eyes of the woman in plain clothes, and then she spoke quickly.
"How about this, you guys go to the guest house and wait for a while, I'll go find the witch."
"good."
Jiang Wan nodded slightly and followed Su Yi into the mansion. She looked around carefully and found that the mansion was luxuriously decorated.
However, it always gives people a gloomy feeling.
Especially when Jiang Wan noticed that the inner courtyard was hung with yellow canvases and yellow paper was faintly floating in the air.
There was a strange smell floating in the whole yard.
Song Jiuyuan held Jiang Wan's hand slightly tighter, worried that the smell would affect Jiang Wan.
Fortunately, Jiang Wan was well prepared. She wore a veil, and Chu Qi held Song Jiuchi tightly.
"Why does this place feel a bit creepy?"
The sound was neither loud nor soft, and just happened to reach the ears of Su Yi in front of her. She explained with a stern face.
"The witch is very powerful. Many people come to see her every day, so the courtyard is always filled with the smell of magic.
Don't be afraid, the witch will help you."
"OK."
Chu Qi nodded slightly, her stomach churning a little. Fortunately, she didn't take those pills to give birth to a boy.
Otherwise she would be sick to death.
Even though Ruoshui was a lively person, she didn't do anything rash and just looked around the yard obediently.
Su Yi led them to the guest house, and then said with a smile: "Please wait a moment.
I'm going to find a fortune teller now, it might take some time, you can eat something first."
A maid in plain clothes brought fruits and snacks, and Jiang Wan politely accepted them.
"Okay, please hurry up, I have something urgent to do with the witch."
"Ma'am, be careful."
Song Jiuyuan supported Jiang Wan weakly, looking worried about the baby in her belly.
Su Yi glanced at everyone with sparkling eyes and left quickly.
"Do you think the witch will come?"
Jiang Wan did not touch the fruits and snacks. She lowered her voice and looked at Song Jiuyuan.
"If it's someone who's greedy for money, he'll definitely show up."
Song Jiuyuan said with certainty that he must have deceived many people to be able to live in such a luxurious house.
Ruoshui was walking around the room, touching here and there, and Muxiang couldn't help but scold her.
"Don't touch anything outside, or you'll be poisoned."
"I am sure, unlike you."
Ruoshui always talks in a way that makes people angry to death, and Muxiang wants to argue with her.
Being pulled by Gan Ze, Gan Ze shook his head gently at her, "Don't ruin Master's business."
"I think she's the one who did the bad things."
Muxiang was speechless about Ruoshui's behavior. Ruoshui then weakly retracted her hand and obediently found a seat to sit down.
Several people sat opposite each other. The room was quiet, with strange noises coming from time to time.
It seemed to be the sound of knocking something.
The sound made people feel drowsy. Jiang Wan and Song Jiuyuan looked at each other, with heavy expressions in their eyes.
"Let everyone take it."
While shaking hands with Song Jiuyuan, Jiang Wan took out a jade bottle from the space.
The pill inside can keep people awake. Song Jiuyuan quietly handed it to Song Jiuchi, and Song Jiuchi and Chu Qi took it.
Gan Ze and Mu Xiang were also very well behaved, but Ruo Shui didn't eat. She said arrogantly:
"Don't worry, Master. I am immune to these sounds."
"Be quiet and don't talk for a while."
Jiang Wan was very troubled by the disobedient Ruoshui, but looking at her clear eyes, she did have some ability.
Boom boom boom…
The knocking sound rang in her mind. Jiang Wan was pregnant, so she would not take any pills.
She just tried her best to stay awake. She held a silver needle in her hand, and if she was not awake, she would immediately pierce the needle into her acupoint.
Another quarter of an hour passed, and when a normal person's mind would become confused, footsteps were finally heard.
Jiang Wan lowered her voice and said, "You all should be quiet and pretend to be confused."
"clear."
Song Jiuchi nodded slightly, feeling a little resentful towards his mother-in-law.
She actually gave Kiki something that came out of this damn place to eat.
Isn't this harming people?
Song Jiuchi clenched his fists, obviously having a lot of complaints about Mrs. Chu.
Chu Qi gently held his hand and comforted him, "Don't be angry, let's see what's going on first."
"Um."
Song Jiuchi agreed reluctantly, and after a while, the woman in plain clothes pushed open the door and walked in.
She gave a smile that she thought was very friendly, "The witch is here, please don't offend her.
If you have anything you want to know, you can ask the fortune teller. One divination is worth a thousand gold coins."
Tsk…
Jiang Wan really didn't expect the other party to ask for such a high price.
A divination is worth a thousand gold!
hehe!
I'm afraid you're just trying to please others!
While he was thinking, a woman with white hair walked in. Surprisingly, she had a young face despite her white hair.
She walked in wearing a black robe and holding a whisk in her hand.
The witch's eyes swept over everyone present one by one, and finally sat on Jiang Wan's abdomen.
"What do you want?"
"A witch."
Jiang Wan stood up with a little excitement, and looked at the witch with hope.
"I heard that you specialize in helping women realize their dreams, but is that true?!"
"That depends on what you ask for."
The witch sat leisurely opposite Jiang Wan. When her eyes swept over Jiang Wan's bulging belly, a gleam of light flashed in her eyes.
"My husband, I want to talk to the witch alone."
Jiang Wan put on a full show and looked at Song Jiuyuan with a pleading look on her face, which made Song Jiuyuan feel a little embarrassed.
"Madam, aren't we here to ask the witch?"
"I...I'm shy."
Jiang Wan lowered her eyebrows, and although Song Jiuyuan hesitated in his heart, he finally agreed.
"Okay, we'll wait for you outside."
When Song Jiuyuan went out, he took Gan Ze, Song Jiuchi and Chu Qi with him, leaving the two maids Ruoshui and Muxiang standing beside Jiang Wan.
There were not many people left in the room at the moment, and Jiang Wan glanced at the woman in plain clothes behind the witch.
The witch said calmly: "This is my disciple, not an outsider. Madam, please speak frankly."
"Witch, I heard you have a pill to change your pregnancy, is that true?"
Jiang Wan stroked her abdomen with her fingertips, "To be honest with you, my husband wants a son.
I gave birth to three daughters in a row, and this baby is about to be born, and the doctor said it's another daughter."
She said to the witch with some pity: "Witch, can you help me?"
"Then you have found the right person."
The girl in plain clothes raised her head proudly and said, "For us witches, this is just a matter of stretching out our hands."
"really?"
Jiang Wan took two steps excitedly, and Ruoshui hurriedly supported her, "Madam, don't get excited, be careful of the baby in your belly."
"Why are you interrupting when the master is talking?"
Jiang Wan deliberately glared at Ruoshui with a stern face, and then said to the witch:
"As long as the witch can help me achieve my wish, I will try my best to satisfy you whatever you want."
"That's what the lady said."
The witch smiled sinisterly, "I'm just worried that Madam won't be willing to part with it when the time comes."
