Chapter 96: Unrest at Home



After the Taoist priest finished speaking, he took out a porcelain bottle from his sleeve pocket and handed it to the servant beside him.

"Boil the medicine in water. Remember, do not let the ashes soak in water. Then bring it to the young lady."

The servant was a little hesitant when he got the things.

Seeing how short-sighted he was, Luo glared at him fiercely.

"Go now!"

The servant immediately left in a panic.

Soon, a bowl of decocted medicine was handed up.

As soon as the medicine was brought into the room, an unbearable stench wafted out, and Jiang Xueshu wanted to vomit it out on the spot.

The Taoist priest looked at it calmly, showing a satisfied expression, and asked Jiang Xueshu to drink the medicine.

When the medicine was brought to her, the pungent smell was unavoidable. Jiang Xueshu's face was almost wrinkled like a bitter gourd, and she looked full of disgust.

"What kind of medicine is this? It smells so bad, can I not drink it?"

The Taoist priest glanced at her, smiling but not really caring.

"If you wish to keep that mark on your face forever, you don't have to drink it."

These words really touched Jiang Xueshu's sore spot. After all, no suffering is more important than appearance.

At that moment, she didn't dare to act like a child. She took it and drank it in one gulp. The taste was extremely intoxicating.

Jiang Xueshu's face twisted in pain and she almost vomited the medicine again. Mrs. Luo felt very distressed when she saw this.

But at the same time, the effect was also very significant. Almost within a few moments of drinking the medicine, the red marks were visibly reduced a lot.

Several people were a little surprised. They didn't expect the medicine to be so effective. It turned out that the master was indeed the one who had achieved it.

The Taoist priest stroked his beard with satisfaction upon seeing the effect, with an unfathomable look on his face, and now he gave them further instructions.

"This medicine must be taken long-term, at least for half a month, otherwise it may relapse. In addition, don't forget to go to the temple to fulfill your wish as soon as possible, so that the remaining evil spirits in the house can be completely removed and the family can be blessed with peace."

Now that they had seen the actual results, there was no way the Luo family would refuse to listen, and they immediately agreed.

Tong, who was standing by, was immediately moved when she saw that the Taoist priest had such abilities. She hurriedly and respectfully pulled the Taoist priest to her side to take care of her seriously ill son.

Who would have thought that the director just took a quick look, said something like "prepare for the funeral" and shook his head, indicating that he was powerless to do anything.

Tong was so shocked that she almost fainted on the spot. Although she already knew what happened to her son, confirming it again still felt like a bolt from the blue.

In desperation, Tong quickly found Luo and asked her to arrange a wedding as soon as possible.

Now that Jiang Xueshu's problem was solved, Luo was in a good mood. She comforted Tong with a few words and said that she would keep it in mind.

Tong's face was still pale, and she had not recovered from the panic just now. She had been worried about her son's illness in the past few years, and her mind and thoughts were affected.

Soon, the Taoist priest left.

What no one knew was that this Taoist priest with an immortal appearance deliberately turned a corner to meet someone after leaving the Jiang Mansion for a distance.

"Miss Jiang!"

The Taoist priest clasped his hands together in greeting, with a very respectful look, totally different from his nonchalant expression just now.

Chen Simin, who was brought by Jiang Xueying to see the Taoist priest, did not react for a while. He looked at the Taoist priest, then at Jiang Xueying, and frowned slightly.

"Master, I wonder what the situation is like in the Jiang Mansion?"

Jiang Xueying didn't say much and went straight to the point.

"As Miss Jiang expected, everyone in the Jiang family believed the old Taoist's words. The medicine you gave has been given to the sick young lady in the mansion, and the effect is very obvious. The old Taoist also specifically told her to drink it for a longer time and asked her to go to the temple to fulfill her wish as soon as possible. Everyone in the mansion is convinced by the old Taoist and will not disobey orders."

The Taoist priest told Jiang Xueying everything that had happened in the Jiang Mansion before. Everything was done according to Jiang Xueying's instructions without any deviation.

After getting a satisfactory answer, Jiang Xueying nodded and handed a purse from her sleeve to the Taoist priest.

The Taoist priest's face lit up with joy, he weighed it, bowed with satisfaction, stood up and left, not forgetting to say something before leaving.

"If Miss Jiang has such a good thing again, don't forget to find the Taoist priest again."

"must."

Jiang Xueying chatted with him and laughed happily. She was right about the old Taoist. This Taoist priest had some skills.

After the Taoist priest walked away, Chen Simin tugged at Jiang Xueying's sleeve, her eyes full of confusion and curiosity.

"Sister Jiang, this...what is going on? Why did you bring me to see this Taoist priest? Is there something wrong? And the Jiang family he mentioned, is it..."

Jiang Xueying pretended to be mysterious and smiled. She didn't tell her directly. She just said, "Okay, don't worry. It's not a bad thing anyway. It's a good thing. Wait. Tomorrow I will take you to solve the big problem that is bothering you."

Chen Simin was still puzzled, but seeing that Jiang Xueying didn't elaborate, she didn't ask any more questions. Jiang Xueying would never hurt her anyway, so Chen Simin was broad-minded and didn't think too much about it.

The next morning, Jiang Xueshu couldn't wait to get up.

She was really worried that the red marks on her face would recur, so she thought about fulfilling her vow the whole night and did not sleep well.

She finally made it to dawn. After getting up early in the morning, she drank the medicine and couldn't wait to find Luo to go to the temple to fulfill her wish.

Luo knew why she was anxious, so she didn't stop her. She asked her servants to arrange the carriage and horses, and the group went to the most prosperous temple in the area in a grand manner.

We soon arrived at our destination.

If Jiang Xueshu hadn't been concerned about the young lady's dignity, she would probably have pulled the two ladies and ran forward.

After all, they were family members of the general's mansion, so they naturally did not have to queue up with the other poor families. They offered generous incense money, and soon a monk took the lead to lead the way for them.

Kneeling in front of the Buddha statue, each of them had their own thoughts and heavy concerns, but they all worshipped again and again with great care, just hoping that their wishes would come true.

Jiang Xueshu even knelt on the ground and kowtowed several times, while I kept praying in my heart.

"I hope my appearance will always be good. Nothing should happen to me. If anything happens, please don't blame me, an innocent person. God bless me. God bless me. I will definitely offer more incense in the future and ask God to bless my face."

After the worship, Luo gave a large amount of incense money, which was a surprising amount for her who was usually stingy.

Originally, Luo was still feeling a little depressed, but remembering what the Taoist priest had said, she had no choice but to bite the bullet and donate a large sum of money.

She deeply suspected that the unrest in her home during this period was most likely caused by evil spirits, and hoped that the Bodhisattva would bless the Jiang family with peace and safety in the future, and that she herself would also be safe and sound, and have a long and happy life.
