A charlatan can only cheat people out of their money at most, he doesn't have any real skills. This charlatan dared to say that there was an evil spirit in her yard, which would ruin her reputation. How could she swallow this?
"Master Taoist, you said there is an evil spirit in my courtyard. I wonder where exactly it is?" Xie Shiming asked with a cold face.
Bei Yutang stroked his gray beard, seemingly oblivious to her cold expression. His face remained calm, and he said indifferently, "Miss Xie will know in a few days."
"Okay. I can't wait to see the Taoist priest exorcise the evil spirit. If I don't see the evil spirit that day, it won't be as simple as letting you go. You will be thrown into jail if you dare to deceive the prefect." Xie Shiming didn't know why she couldn't help but want to confront the person in front of her, even though she could have handled it calmly.
Seeing her words becoming increasingly outrageous, Madam Xie scolded her, "Ming'er, stop being so rude."
After she finished speaking, she turned to look at Bei Yutang, "Master, I doted on this girl, please don't be offended."
"No problem."
Xie Shiming watched them talking and answering each other, and was very angry.
After Bei Yutang was taken away by the housekeeper to rest, Xie Shiming could no longer hold back and said, "Mother, how can you believe what this Taoist priest said? He said something about evil spirits preventing you from getting pregnant and hindering your father's future. These are all nonsense."
"You don't understand." Mrs. Xie said, as if she didn't intend to argue with her.
"The Taoist priest said that the evil spirit is in my yard. If outsiders know about this, how will you let your daughter go out and face people in the future?" Xie Shiming couldn't help but feel some resentment towards Mrs. Xie.
Mrs. Xie held her hand and soothed her, "Ming'er, no one will say anything bad about you. The evil spirit wasn't targeting you, so how could it be linked to you? Don't overthink it."
"But……"
Xie Shiming wanted to say something but was interrupted by Mrs. Xie.
"Be good and listen to me. Mother won't hurt you."
Xie Shiming could only swallow it silently, not daring to say anything else, but hatred surged in his heart.
She seemed to be very good to me over the years, but if she was really good to me, why would she go to the temple every month to pray for a child? It was because she was a daughter and she didn't like her.
Now that the Taoist priest had mentioned something she cared about, she allowed him to throw dirty water on her, not caring about her reputation at all.
Xie Shiming's dissatisfaction with Mrs. Xie reached its peak.
The mother in the dream was so ruthless. After learning the truth, she didn't care about their previous feelings at all and directly drove her out of the Xie Mansion, making her live in that remote place.
After all, she was the daughter she had raised for so many years, but she was driven out just because she was not her biological daughter.
And the original poor peasant girl suddenly transformed into her.
When she thought about her dream of marrying a poor scholar and being tortured beyond recognition by him and her mother-in-law, she once secretly ran away, hoping to ask Mrs. Xie for help.
However, she saw that their family was happy and they even had a son, and her father was promoted to governor.
She wanted to go over, but was beaten out by the guards. She could only watch the family live a happy life from afar, while she had to endure the torture of her beastly husband and her vicious mother-in-law until she died.
But now it's different. She has destroyed all those who could ruin her life. They can no longer torture her like in her dreams, and her fate will never be like that again.
