“Mother, let’s not tell our sisters-in-law about this yet. I’ll have Wanwan show it to them secretly first. Otherwise, they might get excited only to be disappointed…”
Chu said with a smile.
"Sigh! Sigh! I won't tell!"
Madam Chu's eyes and brows were beaming with joy.
"Mother, you rest for a bit, I'm going to go see my eldest brother!"
As she spoke, Madam Chu stood up.
"Alright! Go ahead!"
...
When Chu arrived at Chu Qianhan's courtyard, Chu Qianhan was sitting in a wheelchair with his legs covered in silver needles.
Sheng Wanwan was inside the house, taking Chu Qingchuan's pulse.
Chu Qingchuan's appearance is similar to Qianhan's; he is also exceptionally handsome.
He had a bewildered smile on his face and was holding a piece of pastry in his hand.
He was stuffing large mouthfuls of pastries into his mouth, grinning foolishly as he ate.
Chu Qianhan and Jiang Shi both surrounded Sheng Wanwan, watching intently as she took Chu Qingchuan's pulse.
After Madam Chu entered, the two men turned to look at her, signaling her not to make a sound and to sit down casually, for fear that she would disturb Sheng Wanwan's pulse taking.
Chu sat down with a smile, really wondering why her elder brother and sister-in-law were so nervous. Since Wanwan said she could cure it, then she must really be able to.
After a while, Sheng Wanwan withdrew her small hand and looked at Chu Qianhan and Jiang Shi.
"Uncle, Aunt, my brother's illness isn't a disease!"
Sheng Wanwan said with a confident expression.
"Not an illness?"
"Yes! Uncle, Aunt, the feng shui of the Chu family has probably been affected."
Sheng Wanwan frowned as she spoke.
"Feng shui? You mean there's something wrong with our Chu family's house?" Chu Qianhan quickly asked.
“It’s not a house, it’s the ancestral grave!” Sheng Wanwan said with certainty.
"Ancestral graves?"
When Jiang heard Sheng Wanwan mention the ancestral graves, her face turned deathly pale.
He knew that disturbing the ancestral graves was no small matter; at best, it would bring misfortune to the family, and at worst, it could lead to the destruction of the family and the extinction of the lineage!
"Yes! Uncle and Aunt, we'll have to go to the scene to find out exactly what was poisoned."
But I'm certain that my older cousin's body is fine; he only lost a part of his soul, which is why he became mentally challenged!
Sheng Wanwan said earnestly.
Upon hearing this, Sister-in-law Jiang of Chu quickly asked:
"Wanwan! Where is your cousin's lost soul? Can it be found again?"
"Yes, Auntie! Tonight, let's take my cousin to the ancestral graves. I can give you back a healthy and strong cousin!"
Although Sheng Wanwan is young, she is very capable. Hearing her say this, everyone felt much more at ease.
...
Once the hour of Hai (9-11 PM) had passed, Sheng Wanwan led the Chu family to the Yanshan Mountains, where the Chu family's ancestral tombs were located.
This time, in addition to Chu Qingchuan, Sheng Wanwan also brought Chu's second brother Chu Xiuyuan and third brother Chu Yunzhou.
She had already examined the faces of her three aunts, all of whom had both sons and daughters, but now it seemed that they all only had daughters.
The problem must lie with these ancestral graves...
Chu and her three aunts originally wanted to come along, but Sheng Wanwan refused.
Women are considered yin, and coming to places with abundant yin energy makes them more susceptible to attracting evil spirits.
If we encounter evil spirits, she'll still have to handle it; she's still young and her spiritual power is weak. So it's best not to waste her spiritual power.
Chu Yunzhou carried Sheng Wanwan, while Chu Xiuyuan pulled the mentally challenged Chu Qingchuan along, as they slowly walked through the dark mountain forest.
It was already the dead of winter, and the cold wind felt like knives cutting into my face.
Chu Qingchuan is mentally challenged, but he instinctively feels very afraid of this place.
In addition, the weather was too cold, and they were making a fuss about wanting to go home.
Chu Xiuyuan and Chu Yunzhou certainly didn't want him to leave, but Chu Qingchuan was a robust 28-year-old man, and Chu Xiuyuan couldn't possibly hold him back! Chu Qingchuan suddenly shook off Chu Xiuyuan's hand and ran down the mountain.
"Qingchuan!"
Chu Xiuyuan quickly stood up, wanting to chase after Chu Qingchuan.
But before he could fully stand up, Chu Qingchuan was restrained by a tall man.
"Big brother, you're late!"
When Sheng Wanwan saw that the person who came was the helper she had summoned using the spirit talisman, she immediately breathed a sigh of relief.
Mother didn't want her to reveal her abilities during this mission, so they didn't bring any guards or servants.
She had anticipated this scene, so she had called Sheng Wenjin over to help long ago.
The celestial soul within Sheng Wenjin possesses divinity, and ordinary wandering ghosts dare not approach it. With him around, she can relax a lot.
"Don't forget, three!"
Sheng Wenjin glanced at Sheng Wanwan indifferently and held up three fingers to remind her.
"Of course I remember! I'll give it to you later."
Sheng Wanwan pouted. All she cares about is eating; she has no regard for family ties at all!
cut!
Seeing this, Sheng Wenjin didn't say anything more, grabbed Chu Qingchuan and headed up the mountain.
"Oh! It's Wen Jin! Did your mother ask you to come and help?"
"Perfect timing! This brat is incredibly strong; I really couldn't catch him! If he gets away, today's trip will have been a waste!"
Chu Xiuyuan clutched his lower back and struggled to his feet. The fall had been quite severe; he felt as if his tailbone was about to break.
“Mm!” Sheng Wenjin responded.
Sheng Wenjin has been in this world for over a year, and his uncles from the Chu family have all treated him well.
He wasn't as indifferent as before; at least he still maintained a semblance of politeness.
"Hey! My dear nephew! Ever since you woke up, why have you become so quiet and reserved? I remember you used to be so talkative and cute when you were little! Look at you now, you've become a real shut-in!"
