“Jiaojiao is already very weak. When you are going to acknowledge your ancestors, it would be best if her spirit could come with you. She usually comes to see me at night, and I will go to your house then.”
"Okay, then please come to my house tonight. I will explain the situation to my parents and we will bring Old Ancestor Lin home together to completely sever ties with the rest of the Lin family."
Qi Yefeng left his phone number as he spoke.
Song Mian agreed to Qi Yefeng's request.
That evening, after Lin Jiaojiao arrived, Song Mian took her to the Qi family by taxi.
The Qi family lives in a high-end villa community.
Song Mian heard that this was where the big families of Haicheng used to live. After it was acquired by developers, many wealthy families still chose to live here, and even now these families are still very rich.
"Young boss, is this my future home?" Lin Jiaojiao stood in front of the Qi family's gate, her eyes filled with longing.
Holding the memorial tablet prepared in advance for Lin Jiaojiao, Song Mian said, "As long as the Qi family burns incense and paper money for you and completes the first offering to you, this place will be your home from now on. Let's go, let's go find Qi Yefeng first."
As soon as Song Mian rang the Qi family's doorbell, she saw the door being pushed open from the inside.
"Sir, Madam, Young Master, you must not believe what that funeral shop owner said! This is a modern society where everything is based on science, yet she wants your whole family to worship a wandering ghost. She's clearly trying to scam you!" Lin's mother, Sun Man, said hurriedly after being kicked out by the Qi family.
Lin's father, Lin Zi, helped Sun Man up and continued to explain to the Qi family, "No matter what, we were one family hundreds of years ago. Your family can't just abandon us!"
"We helped you before because you were distant relatives of our Qi family. But we never expected that your Lin family would not repent and worship our ancestor Lin even after knowing the truth of what happened back then. Since that's the case, we will bring our ancestor Lin to our home for worship. From now on, our Qi family will sever all ties with your Lin family!" As Qi Yefeng spoke, he pushed Lin Zixiang out of the gate, and then Song Mian appeared.
Completely different from his attitude towards the Lin family, Qi Yefeng greeted Song Mian with a smile: "Boss Song, I've been waiting for you for a long time."
As soon as Qi Yefeng spoke, everyone's eyes fell on Song Mian.
"Song Mian! How dare you come here!" Lin Zixiang rushed towards Song Mian as soon as he saw her. "We had a good relationship with the Qi family. Why did you have to come and ruin our relationship?"
"The Qi family is willing to continue supporting you because they don't know that it was your Lin family who killed Jiaojiao three hundred years ago. I've only told them the truth. Whether they want to get along with you or not is between you and has nothing to do with me."
Song Mian also heard Qi Yefeng talk about the long-standing relationship between the Qi family and the Lin family during the day.
The Lin family gradually declined, and in modern times they only have food to eat by working for the Qi family.
"Since your Lin family has received favors from the Qi family and has always known the truth, you should have obediently made offerings when Jiaojiao came to you for alms. That way, the Qi family might be able to forgive you."
"But you were worried about being exposed, so you refused to offer sacrifices to Jiaojiao. Now it's only natural that you'll be driven away by the Qi family," Song Mian said.
“Boss Song is right. The reason we want to distance ourselves from you is not to punish you for the mistakes of people from three hundred years ago. The past is the past. If you are willing to acknowledge Ancestor Lin and tell us the truth when Boss Song finds you, we are still willing to get along with you.”
Qi Yefeng paused for a moment before continuing, "But you knew the truth all along, yet you kept it hidden. If it weren't for Boss Song helping the Ancestor find us, we would have been labeled as disloyal and unfilial without even knowing it!"
Qi's parents also agreed: "It is all thanks to Boss Song that we have the opportunity to fulfill our ancestors' last wishes. Boss Song is our family's benefactor, and you are not allowed to disrespect him."
“We’re doing this for your own good! Look at Song Mian, she’s just a little girl who hasn’t even grown up yet. She didn’t show us Lin Jiaojiao’s ghost, so how would we know if what she said was true or false?” Sun Man said.
Lin Zi added, "Moreover, even if this is true, Lin Jiaojiao is an unlucky person, and worshipping her will bring misfortune to the family!"
"I will never bring misfortune to the family. I will protect my descendants!" Lin Jiaojiao couldn't stand it anymore and was so angry that she wanted to hit Lin Zi. "You bad person, it's fine if you don't worship me, but I won't allow you to speak ill of me in front of my other descendants!"
Lin Zi could neither see nor sense Lin Jiaojiao's presence; he only felt a chill creep over him.
He was a little scared, but then he realized that the female ghost did nothing else besides scaring him.
Lin Zi became even more arrogant, insisting that Song Mian was lying: "Song Mian, unless you can prove today that this female ghost really exists and let us all see her, don't even think about using this nonsense to deceive people!"
Song Mian was somewhat embarrassed.
After all, she really couldn't let others see the ghost, and given Jiaojiao's current condition, she couldn't easily allow herself to be possessed by a ghost anymore.
"Song Mian, why aren't you saying anything? I'll know you're a liar!" Lin Zixiang grinned smugly at Song Mian.
The next second, George Lam was knocked to the ground by Qi Yefeng, who had rushed over.
"Call the community security guards over and kick this family out. They're not allowed to show their face in my house again." Qi Yefeng rubbed his wrist and gestured to Song Mian, "Mr. Song, please come in."
Song Mian nodded and stepped directly over Lin Zixiang.
"Son, are you alright!" Sun Man stomped her foot angrily as she watched the Qi family bring Song Mian in and close the door. "The Qi family is all crazy! They insist on spending money to worship a lowly female ghost who died hundreds of years ago!"
"Wife, what are we going to do now? All three of us have been fired. How are we going to live?" Lin Zi was in despair.
Lam Chi-cheung said fiercely, "The Qi family is ungrateful and betray us. We can't let them get away with this. We'll go find the media and expose their practice of worshipping evil spirits!"
“I heard that the Qi family group already has problems with its cash flow. If news like this breaks out, the public will definitely attack them, and their group will be finished!” Sun Man immediately made up her mind and went with her son and husband to notify the media.
