Madam Liu was decisive and efficient in her actions.
He immediately gave the order to find a Taoist priest to exorcise the evil spirit.
"No..." Upon hearing this, Young Master Liu quickly asked, "Mother, is my sister really possessed?"
At that moment, the words that little girl had said to him at the pharmacy instantly resurfaced in his mind.
If he had known, he should have invited that little brat over to have her take a look at his sister.
Perhaps he is much more useful than this doctor Wang who is all talk and no action?
Madam Liu wiped away her tears. "It seems to me that's the case. Your sister has been sick for so many days, and she's tried all sorts of medicine without any effect... Perhaps it really is as the doctor said, that she's been possessed by an evil spirit or has been envied by a villain."
"Mother, stop crying. What's the use of crying?" Young Master Liu said irritably, "No matter how much you cry, it won't cure my sister's illness. You might as well go and take care of her. I'll go find a Taoist priest right now."
After saying that, he hurriedly ran out the door.
"Young Master, wait for us!" The servants behind them chased after them desperately.
Before long, Young Master Liu actually picked up a Taoist priest on the street.
When Mr. and Mrs. Liu saw the Taoist priest that their eldest son had invited back, they were dumbfounded.
"Son, isn't this Taoist priest you invited too young?" Master Liu was too embarrassed to say it directly; it seemed like his son had hired a fraud!
Which Taoist priest isn't seventy or eighty years old, with an air of otherworldly wisdom, to be convincing?
But the one in front of me looks to be no more than seventeen or eighteen years old.
He's young and inexperienced, but his eyes are quick and sharp; he doesn't look like a reliable Taoist at all.
However, Young Master Liu didn't think so.
He originally intended to go to the pharmacy to find the young girl, but he couldn't find her. So, he settled for the young Taoist priest who could tell from the street that something was wrong at his home.
Although this young Taoist priest was also young, only seventeen or eighteen years old, he was wearing a Taoist robe and a Taoist crown, and he spoke eloquently, clearly a capable Taoist priest!
Moreover, that little girl was only two or three years old and she could already diagnose her sister's illness. This little Taoist priest is much older than her, so he must be even stronger!
As the eldest son and only male in the family, Young Master Liu holds an unparalleled position in the Liu family.
Even Master Liu and Madam Liu couldn't do anything about him, so they could only let the young Taoist priest do as he pleased.
The young Taoist priest, looking quite the part, gestured wildly at the Liu family's house, asking for wine, meat, gold, and silver.
Young Master Liu doesn't care about money; he'll satisfy all your needs.
The young Taoist priest asked him for another three hundred taels of silver, saying he wanted to buy precious medicinal herbs to help Miss Liu cool down and relieve her fever.
However, that very night, the young Taoist priest attempted to flee with the money, only to be ambushed by the men arranged by Master Liu.
Young Master Liu is a good-for-nothing, but his father, Master Liu, is a man who has amassed a fortune, so he's not so easy to deal with.
"What are you doing?" The young Taoist priest, pinned to the ground, still tried to intimidate them: "I was just afraid that if the young lady's fever continued, it would damage her brain... Even the most ethereal person would be burned into an idiot, so I was thinking of hurrying up the mountain to find my master to help the young lady heal! My magical power and cultivation are too weak to save the young lady, but once I find my master who is traveling far away, I will definitely come back to heal the young lady!"
Even if Young Master Liu was stupid, he would know that this young Taoist priest was just lying to him.
"You liar! By the time you find your master, my sister will probably be burned to death! You dare to lie to me? I'll beat you to death!" Young Master Liu swung his fist and smashed it into the young Taoist priest, giving him a severe beating. He then searched the man for all his money and threw him out.
“Sigh…” Master Liu said, “Son, don’t be too angry. It’s not good to hurt your health. I have already written to ask someone to go to the provincial capital to invite a doctor. He will definitely be able to cure your sister.”
"What can I expect from you?" Young Master Liu rolled his eyes. "If you really cared about your sister, you would have written this letter days ago."
"..." Old Master Liu was speechless for a moment.
Young Master Liu, his leg trembling, wondered, "How about... we try finding that three-year-old brat?"
...
Early the next morning, Young Master Liu kicked open the door of the pharmacy.
"Boss, do you know that little girl who spoke yesterday? Where does she live? What's her name?" Young Master Liu's barrage of questions left the pharmacy owner somewhat bewildered.
"I don't know him, I don't know him," the pharmacy owner quickly shook his head, his face full of determination.
He absolutely did not want to know that little brat!
Young Master Liu stared at the pharmacy owner and took a piece of silver from the counter.
"If you can help me find that little brat, this money is yours."
With money paving the way, the pharmacy owner didn't even need to say a word. His assistants swarmed over, their eyes shining, and recounted the whole ordeal the pharmacy owner had suffered that day.
"It seems that little girl really is a bit strange?" Young Master Liu nodded.
The pharmacy owner, as the victim, had no way to express his suffering.
"Young Master, that little girl is not someone you can mess with lightly," the pharmacy owner said with a long face.
Young Master Liu tossed the silver aside and said disdainfully, "Do I need you to teach me how to do things? The fact that she can handle you proves she's capable!"
Only someone with real skill could tell at a glance that his sister's illness was beyond the reach of any doctor!
That little girl can definitely cure her sister.
Young Master Liu felt much more at ease.
As soon as they stepped out, they boarded a horse-drawn carriage and headed straight for Ning'an Village.
Young Master Liu climbed down from the carriage, stopped a child, and asked, "Little boy, do you know that there is a little girl in your village who is a little over three years old... with a small face, very smart, but she speaks a little unclearly, and wears two little buns in her hair?"
The child immediately knew that this was referring to Lin Wanyue.
"Ah..." His eyes darted around, "I don't know, you should ask my parents."
"?"
Young Master Liu frowned. Could this little brat be an idiot?
Even the little girls in the village don't know?
When the Liu family's carriage stopped in Ning'an Village, many people noticed it.
When the child's parents saw that their child was being stopped, they rushed over.
"Young master, is there anything I can help you with?" The child's father asked anxiously, worried that his child had offended this wealthy young master in the city.
They were poor country bumpkins who dared not provoke such a rich young master.
Young Master Liu pulled out a tael of silver and said in a condescending tone, "Do you know if there's a little girl in your village who's a little over three years old? She's exceptionally clever and can even tell fortunes?"
broken!
This wave is aimed at the Lin family's little girl!
Seeing the silver tael gleaming in the sunlight, a look of greed appeared in the man's eyes. This was a silver tael!
But the village head had specifically called them over to give them a warning, so that the men would know what to do.
One tael of silver can buy many things, but it certainly can't buy all the crops in their village.
"Young Master, is there something you need?" the man asked, swallowing hard.
"Just answer my question. Do you think I'm going to eat her?" Young Master Liu rolled his eyes, clearly annoyed.
