Chapter 149: A Sinister Omen



What does it mean?

Take the initiative to ask others if you have any bad signs?

Is this a joke or are you serious?

In order to refute the bell doctor who just said that others had ominous signs, she took the initiative to ask?

Is this a humiliation?

Everyone in the alley looked at the woman.

This woman is unfamiliar to them and she is not from their neighborhood. Could it be that she is from somewhere else and doesn't like Doctor Ling?

Miss Jun was not angry and glanced at the woman.

"You didn't," she said, and started to walk past the woman.

I have to say, it's true that liars and beggars are both thick-skinned.

The people in the alley were watching the excitement with smiles on their faces.

The woman obviously didn't want Miss Jun to leave like this, so she hurriedly followed.

"Miss Jun, please take another look." She said, with a pleading look on her face, "I really have omen."

The smiles on the faces of the people watching the excitement in the alley froze again.

Looking at this woman, if she is acting, she must be too absorbed in it.

Miss Jun looked at her and smiled.

"Auntie, you really don't have any bad signs, don't worry," she said.

The woman did not look happy at all, but rather uneasy.

"Miss Jun." She was still unwilling to let Miss Jun leave, and couldn't help but reach out and grab her sleeve, "I don't have any, why don't you go to my house and see who has the ominous sign?"

God!

The people watching the excitement in the alley were stunned.

Miss Jun smiled helplessly, but before she could say anything, the woman spoke again.

"Miss Jun. Miss Jun, please, just take a look." She begged.

"I'll just take a look. If there's nothing, you should look for someone else and stop bothering me." Miss Jun said.

Why does this sound so strange?

It seems like it would be very difficult for her to ask her to see a doctor?

If a doctor says this, any patient with a backbone would slap him in the face.

But the woman obviously had no idea what backbone was and was overjoyed when she heard this.

"Okay, okay," she kept saying, fearing that it would be too late and the girl would regret it.

As he spoke, he hurriedly led the way.

I watched the group of people leave. The people in the alley were still in a daze.

"Really?"

"Could it be that they paid someone to act here?"

"No, I heard that this doctor is really picky about his patients."

"Yes, yes. I heard that an old woman wanted her to treat a disease, but she refused to do so, saying that the old woman was not qualified."

"What does unworthy mean?"

"It seems like she wants to see a doctor and chooses her own patients."

"So she doesn't watch everything? She only watches the ones she knows how to watch?"

“It seems to be, but it also seems not to be.”

"Don't think about it. Just follow and see."

After a brief discussion in the alley, people rushed out and chased after the three people walking on the street.

Turned a street and came to a door.

Although the appearance of this family is not that of a wealthy family, it is still a well-off family.

The woman knocked on the door, and the doorman looked at Miss Jun and her servant with a complicated expression.

"Sanniang, this isn't a good idea," he said.

The woman glared at him.

"What do you know as a man?" She whispered, "Don't talk nonsense."

As he said this, he smiled apologetically at Miss Jun.

It seemed as if he was afraid that the doorman's words would anger Miss Jun.

Miss Jun smiled and didn't take it seriously.

"Please come in, Miss Jun." said the woman.

The doorman had no choice but to move aside and watch Miss Jun follow the woman inside.

"Women just believe in these kinds of nonsense." The doorman shook his head and closed the door helplessly.

The house is neatly renovated, simple and elegant, and obviously has a lot of history.

"Miss Jun, my wife and Dou Niang are close friends. Before she left, she strongly recommended you. She said she would definitely come to you if she encountered any difficulties." The woman who led the way suddenly said in a low voice.

Dou Niang, this must be the woman who came for consultation that night, Liu'er thought, it turns out that she also promoted the young lady.

Miss Jun nodded with a smile but still said nothing.

Don't ask too many questions, don't say too much.

The woman heaved a sigh of relief again. She became more and more convinced that Miss Jun was an expert.

Miss Jun followed the woman through the flower wall and arrived at the family's backyard.

Maids were standing under the eaves, children were running around in the yard, and the sound of girls laughing and talking could be heard from the house. The air seemed to be filled with the scent of cosmetics.

This is where women and children live. Although some women and children need to work hard to make a living, more women and children are kept in seclusion, interacting among their own specific relatives and friends, and are not seen by outsiders and are not known by outsiders.

"Miss Jun is here." the woman said to the maids.

Everyone in the yard looked over and the maids also opened the curtains.

Miss Jun looked at these women and children and walked forward calmly.

Yes, she doesn't need a grand opening celebration, nor does she need to invite many people to show up.

She does not need to spend money to win popularity with her kindness and medical skills, nor does she need to shout about her miraculous healing skills to become famous instantly.

All she needed was an opportunity, a safe and accepted opportunity to walk in the inner courtyard of the mansion.

She gradually gained fame in the inner courtyard of the mansion and captured the women behind these high-ranking officials. Don't underestimate these women, because many times they can decide the success or failure of a matter, or the life or death of a person.

Her sister and brother were all in the deepest part of the inner courtyard of the mansion. She walked over step by step, and there would always be a chance for her to reach them.

In the inner courtyard of the Lu family mansion, maids and servants gathered, but their footsteps were light and there was no noise at all. Two maids came in from outside.

"Where is the princess?" they asked in a low voice.

The girls under the eaves pointed in a direction.

"In the garden," they said.

There were many families on this street originally, but with the relocation of Prince Huai's Mansion and Lu's residence, many families moved away. Lu Yunqi's house occupied the space of two families and was built spaciously, especially the garden, which was full of flowers that bloomed all year round.

"At first, they were afraid that these flowers and trees would not survive, so they simply dug up the soil from other people's gardens and moved it here."

Two girls in the garden said with a smile, pointing to a patch of lush blooming flowers in front of them. Behind them was a lake. They were sitting in a small pavilion, which was almost entirely made of colorful glass, sparkling under the reflection of the green lake water.

Princess Jiuli was sitting on a blanket on the floor, threading the needle on an embroidery frame. Her pleated skirt spread out on the carpet like a flower.

Sitting in a colorful glass pavilion, she looked particularly eye-catching in her plain dress and without any makeup.

She occasionally looked up at the flower garden in front of her, always with a faint smile on her face.

"Yeah, it's really good," she would also say.

Her voice is always so gentle, and her posture is extremely dignified even when she is sitting.

This is the princess raised in the palace, the princess who was supposed to be the real eldest princess, the princess who was deeply loved by the late emperor and the crown prince.

The girls looked at her with ill-concealed awe.

Two maids came here and bowed respectfully.

"Princess, the master said he would not be back today," they said.

Princess Jiuli nodded with a smile.

"Okay, I understand," she said.

The maids lowered their heads and walked away, but one of them hesitated and came forward with tea.

"Princess," she said, kneeling down.

Princess Jiuli put down her needle and thread, took the tea, and looked at the flower garden in front of her.

The maid who was kneeling on the ground with her head lowered couldn't help but raise her head.

"Princess, the master has taken in a new woman." She said quickly, "She is the West City Gatekeeper..."

It seems I can’t go on here.

She lowered her head and her voice was inaudible.

"The concubine of the gatekeeper of the western city."

Princess Jiuli looked at her.

"Oh." She said, put the teacup back in the maid's hand, picked up the needle and thread again, and continued embroidering with a focused expression.

The girl looked nervous and confused for a moment, but she didn't dare to say anything more and walked away with the tea in her hand.

Compared to the quiet inner residence, the streets of the capital were the busiest at this time. The wine houses and teahouses were packed with people, and wine sellers carrying baskets and calling out for fare were moving among the guests. But amidst the loud laughter, a sudden noise arose.

"I asked you to give up the private room to our Seventh Master. Are you deaf?"

Two or three people were standing in the corridor on the second floor and shouting loudly.

Several shop assistants saluted the people in the room with uneasiness.

Zhu Zan, who was sitting in the guest seats downstairs, looked up.

"Who is this?" He clicked his tongue, "They are even more arrogant than us."
