Chapter 2: Opening the Third Eye



Gu Yunru naturally followed closely, and when they arrived at the flower hall in the main courtyard, she bowed to Madam Gu with a faint smile and whispered, "Madam, do you want to talk to me about something?"

"Yunru, Jun Yue went to visit you just now. When she came back, she said that you were possessed by a ghost and scared her. Is this true?" Although Mrs. Gu had a hypocritical smile on her face, her words were sharp and straightforward.

Gu Junyue was standing by, trembling and crying, "Mother, my elder sister is really possessed by a ghost. She even said she wants to eat me! Go and ask a Taoist priest to perform a ritual!"

After hearing what she said, Gu Yunru instantly understood the girl's intention. If she said that she was possessed by a ghost, the Taoist priest was invited by Madam Gu, and she would definitely suffer a lot. But if she said that she was not possessed by a ghost, then she was pretending to be a ghost to scare her sister, and she would probably be the one kneeling in the ancestral hall in the end.

It's true that you can't judge a person by his appearance. This girl looks young, but she is very good at house fighting. She even knows how to complain first.

"To answer Madam, Yunru was indeed possessed by a ghost just now." Gu Yunru raised his head and smiled faintly. He glanced at the people around him without changing his expression and lied with his eyes open, "I fell into the lake and walked through the gates of hell. The Ox-Headed and Horse-Faced Ghost said that I should not die, but I suffered so much. In order to compensate me, they opened my third eye, and now I have retired."

"Open the third eye?" Mrs. Gu could not have expected that Gu Yunru would actually bring up such a thing. The Gu family is a medical family. Although she does not know medicine, she has often heard her husband say that when a person dies, it is like a light goes out, and ghosts are simply nonsense. Just now, Gu Junyue came to cry and told her clearly that Gu Yunru pretended to be a ghost to scare her, causing her to wet her pants and lose face, and she wanted to make her suffer.

She thought that Gu Yunru would definitely deny the ghost story, and she could use this as evidence to punish her, but who would have thought that this damn girl would actually blame the Ox-Headed and Horse-Faced Demon, and even said that they had opened her third eye! Gu Yunru did not play by the rules, and brought up that the Ox-Headed and Horse-Faced Demon had already retired, blocking her way to ask the Taoist priest to perform a ritual to exorcise the ghost. She was speechless for a moment.

"Big sister! If you are not possessed by a ghost, then you are pretending to be a ghost to scare me. What are you talking about? You are so funny! Mother, she is bullying me!" Gu Junyue refused and cried, "If you don't take care of it for me, I will tell grandparents and dad--"

"Okay, stop crying, Yunru. How could you pretend to be a ghost and scare your sister, and even lie to your mother?" Mrs. Gu calmed herself down and rebuked in a cold voice.

Gu Yunru looked innocent and sincere: "Madam, I really didn't lie. I was possessed by the Ox-Headed and Horse-Faced Demons just now and my third eye was opened. If you don't believe me, I can prove it to you."

Madam Gu: "..." This damn girl! She doesn't play by the rules! Well, she wants to see what she can come up with! "Well, prove it to me. If you lie in front of your mother, you will be punished." Madam Gu coughed twice and said in a dignified voice.

"Madam, how could Yunru lie?" Gu Yunru's face was still sincere, and her eyes seemed to glance around at the people in the room casually.

In fact, when she first entered the door, she noticed an interesting phenomenon, that is, a servant standing at the door and a maid standing beside Mrs. Gu.

Although she was born into a family of traditional Chinese medicine practitioners in her previous life and learned medicine from her grandfather since she was a child, she chose psychology as her major when she was in college because of her strong interest. Out of professional habit, she likes to observe people's micro-expressions to understand their hearts.

From the time she came in to now, which was less than a quarter of an hour, the servant secretly looked up at the maid three times. His eyes were burning, but his movements were concealed.

The maid didn't even glance in this direction, but she unconsciously clenched her handkerchief and made a waving gesture.

Then, the servant's eyes dimmed and he lowered his head.

Such frequent and tacit interactions show that the two people have a very good relationship in private. The affection in the servant's eyes cannot be deceived. He looks at the maid frequently, and it is obvious that he likes her very much.

Looking at the maid, her hair was meticulously done, her clothes were clean and tidy without a wrinkle, even her shoes were spotless, her words and actions were impeccable, and she was trying hard to control herself from looking over there, which showed that she was cautious and careful, and that Madam Gu was unaware of it.

She was so cautious, obviously because she didn't want Mrs. Gu to notice what was going on between them.

"Yunru, congratulate Madam first. There will be a wedding in Madam's courtyard." Gu Yunru was already confident in her heart and said to Madam Gu with a smile.

A wedding? What kind of wedding? Did she know about the engagement? Mrs. Gu was so nervous that she subconsciously shrank her pupils and asked, "What do you mean?"

"The sister next to Madam is about to get married." Gu Yunru suddenly stepped forward, grabbed the hand of the maid next to Madam Gu, and said enthusiastically.

The maid was so frightened that she was about to explain herself, but Madam Gu shook her head and retorted, "You mean Biyun? I wanted to arrange a marriage for her a few years ago, but she refused and said she wanted to serve me for two more years. If I don't make the decision for her, how can she get married?"

Gu Yunru's smile remained unchanged as she said in a serious tone, "But I saw from my Heavenly Eye that Sister Biyun and this little brother have developed feelings for each other and have promised to spend their lives together. Maybe they are even pregnant."

Speaking of the child, she saw Biyun standing straight, but always glancing at her belly intentionally or unintentionally, with a look of reluctance and regret. She made a guess, and taking advantage of the gap in her clothes, she took a look at Biyun's pulse and found that she was indeed two months pregnant.

"Madam, please spare me! Madam, please spare me! The child is innocent, please come!" After hearing what Gu Yunru said, Biyun could no longer hold back, and she knelt down with a plop, crying and begging for mercy.

"Madam, Biyun and I have indeed promised to spend our lives together. I know that I, a servant, am not worthy of Biyun. I beg you to have mercy and make us happy!" The servant was overjoyed when he heard that Biyun was pregnant. He ran forward, knelt down and kowtowed.

"Please spare my life, madam!" Seeing Xiao Qingzi kowtow continuously, Biyun felt distressed and frightened, and she also kowtowed continuously.
