Chapter 119 Let This Young Madam Go!
Dabao and the others saw Cai Erfeng's appearance clearly.
His hair was disheveled, he smelled foul, his face was covered with pus, and his hands were covered with festering pus. He was both disgusting and terrifying.
The two children from the Cai family were so frightened that they hid behind a large water tank.
Sanbao couldn't help but utter a curse.
Dabao calmed down, but he still felt shocked and disgusted inside.
Only Xiao Yuanbao was the calmest, as if he was used to these little scenes.
After Xiao Yuanbao tripped Cai Erfeng, he immediately jumped far away, covered his nose with his hands, and stood upwind. "Grandma, she is really crazy. How did she come back?"
"The Chu family sent us a letter, and I shamelessly hired a bullock cart and forcibly tied her up and brought her back."
The Cai family’s daughter-in-law was not convinced. “Dad, you are too easy to talk to. Erfeng was fine before. The Chu family divorced her whenever they wanted. Why should we take her back? Just let her go crazy in the Chu mansion, or report to the police. The Chu family’s daughter-in-law…”
Cai the peddler glared at her and said, "Erfeng has indeed done something inappropriate. I don't have the nerve to report it to the authorities. After all, she is the daughter of our Cai family. I can't just ignore her life or death..."
Especially after knowing the whole story, it was impossible for Cai the peddler to ignore her.
He had a good heart and treated Cai, his adopted daughter, very well.
It is impossible to ignore your own daughter.
Everyone else disliked Cai Erfeng because he was smelly, but Cai the peddler did not. He walked up to Cai Erfeng, tied him up with a rope, and dragged him back into the house.
After entering the house, Cai the peddler begged, "Little Yuanbao, my dear granddaughter, please help me see if I can save her..."
Xiao Yuanbao had already seen all the symptoms.
Her round little face showed a rare expression of serious thought.
"This is because her luck was so bad that evil spirits entered her body, and she became crazy due to the huge stimulation. We must first exorcise the evil spirits and make her sober. Let me think about it. My father taught me before..."
It's the Forget-me-not.
It seemed that not only her father taught her, but also other godfathers, had taught her how to exorcise evil spirits.
The ten lords of the underworld all have great magical powers.
There are many ways to exorcise evil spirits, and she wants to find one to try.
"Grandma, do you have jade at home? Five Emperors' Coins will do, too?"
Cai the peddler shook his head and said, "We are poor and have nothing..."
Xiao Yuanbao continued to think...
"Do you have mugwort at home? It would be best if it was the mugwort cut on the Dragon Boat Festival."
Cai the peddler nodded immediately. "Yes, yes, yes, yes. We cut a lot of mugwort every year on the Dragon Boat Festival and pile it in the backyard. When I ran a grocery store, I would sell mugwort for the Dragon Boat Festival..."
The shop at the back was closed, and there was no place to sell the mugwort, so it was piled in the backyard.
"Okay, then use mugwort to drive away the evil spirits in her body. Boil some hot water, soak some dried mugwort in it, and then soak her in the water. Using dried mugwort that is more than five years old will have a better effect."
Cai the peddler agreed and went to prepare.
Cai's wife in the inner room heard it and couldn't sit still any longer, so she came out to help.
Her eyes were blind and could not help, and Cai Erfeng was crazy. She was afraid that the two would run into each other, so she stayed in the house and did not dare to come out.
Hearing this, she was also grateful.
"Thank you! Xiao Yuanbao, I can't see, but you must be the kindest children..."
Before, she was indifferent to the other children because she didn't like Cai Sanya very much and didn't have a good impression of Xiao Yuanbao and the others.
Now I express my sincere gratitude.
She knew very well how Cai Erfeng treated Cai Sanya in the past. Now that Erfeng was like this, she disagreed when Cai the peddler said she should ask Cai Shi, Xiao Yuanbao and the others for help. She felt that Cai Shi would definitely not agree to help and it would be a waste of time to go.
Unexpectedly, the children really followed Cai the peddler from afar.
Without saying anything, he started to exorcise the evil spirit for Erfeng.
"Mrs. Dashan, go and pour a glass of water for Xiao Yuanbao and the others..."
"Okay, mother."
Cai Dashan is not at home. I don't know where he is hanging out.
"You're welcome. We'll help grandma find some mugwort, and you go and boil some water..." Dabao refused.
Everyone started to work actively.
There is strength in numbers.
It will be ready soon.
Cai's wife boiled a large wooden barrel of hot water, and Cai the peddler and his men picked dried mugwort that was more than five years old and made some soaks.
Cai Erfeng was still talking nonsense, "Who are you? Let me go! Let this young lady go! I am the daughter-in-law of the Chu family. My husband is Chu Huan, a scholar from Shamen County. My husband's poems are famous in several counties. Let me go!
Ah! My husband, I don't have any affair with Zhang Wangcai. Zhang Wangcai and I are just simple fellow villagers!
Mother-in-law, I beg you, I am not sick, how could I be sick when I am fine? The injuries on my body were caused by those brats, they will heal soon. When I recover, my husband and I will give birth to a big fat boy, and the Chu family will have an heir...
Someone, I stink, please call a doctor... Doctor, why do I stink so much? Doctor, are you a quack who only takes money but can't treat diseases? Get out of here..."
Xiao Yuanbao didn't want to listen to her nagging anymore, so he just took a piece of rag and stuffed it into her mouth.
Cai Erfeng became dumb.
With eyes wide open, he could only make mumbling sounds.
They tied her up and put her in a big bucket.
Cai Erfeng struggled with all his might and almost kicked the barrel over.
Finally, Cai the peddler endured the pain and knocked Cai Erfeng unconscious.
"Xiao Yuanbao, how long does she need to soak in the water..."
"At least three hours! Then, I will recite the sutra to exorcise evil spirits for her. I will also prepare a silver needle. Then, I will drain her dirty blood..."
"Okay, okay."
In this way, there is no going back today.
Dabao asked Sanbao to go back alone in the carriage to report the news to Cai and the others.
He stayed here to look after his sister.
Sanbao was extremely reluctant, but he had to be the one to deliver the letter.
If I don't go home to spend the night, Cai and Erbao will definitely be worried at home.
The three treasures have withdrawn.
Xiao Yuanbao and Dabao stayed at Cai's house.
It’s not that I want to save Cai Erfeng. What Cai Erfeng did is not worthy of being saved. It’s just that the people behind Cai Erfeng want to catch him, so they have to wake Cai Erfeng up first.
We cannot let the people behind the scenes bring harm to the Cai family in vain.
Cai the peddler is a very nice person who speaks his mind.
Time passes minute by minute...
Waited until dark.
Little Yuanbao was a person who was not afraid of strangers. During the waiting time, she became familiar with Cai's daughter-in-law, as well as her younger cousins.
Cai the peddler had already talked to Cai's daughter-in-law and learned that the sachets given to the two children were indeed given by Cai Erfeng.
He sighed, Erfeng, ah Erfeng! You really have brought this upon yourself. You even spared your family members. You are not just an individual.
Halfway through the bath, Cai Erfeng woke up again and started talking nonsense, then was knocked unconscious by Cai the peddler again.
The water was cooled and then heated.
Heated and cold.
The water is changed by Cai's daughter-in-law.
The Cai family's daughter-in-law didn't know the truth of the matter, otherwise, she would have scalded Cai Erfeng to death.
No one slept.
Taking care of such a crazy person and keeping an eye on her physical condition at all times, the Cai family couldn't sleep. Little Yuanbao pulled Dabao and his little cousins to play cards together.
