She was molested by a plate! He Danggui squeezed the corner of her clothes and stared blankly. Could this plate really help her determine her marriage? Should she take the divorce letter from the Lord?
There was no response. The plate rolled around two times before it stopped. It said in a low voice, “I know it’s a bit unreasonable to let you kiss a cold plate. Besides, I haven’t taken a shower for a long time. But you can kiss my master’s face. He washes his face every day.”
He Danggui glanced at Bai Yangbai, who made fun of her, and asked angrily, “It costs ten liang each time, right? I can afford it. Will you predict it once for me? Are you really good at it?”
“Huh, OK, ten liang,” said the plate disappointingly, “It’s okay to take a gamble. If I earn twenty liang, I can buy a thousand roasted chicken wings. If I earn a hundred liang, I can buy many beautiful ladies! So, beautiful lady, what is your date of birth and eight characters of a ho
Half a year later, with the help of Bai Yangbai, He Danggui got refined internally and externally, and became Zhu Quan’s favorite concubine and assistant in one fell swoop. Besides, together with Bai Yangbai, she became the “shadow” of Gezhu (the head of an organization) of Wuying Tower. In addition, she accidentally discovered the agerasia secret of Bai Yangbai and asked him to help her maintain appearance. In those days going like the water, she engaged in the battle of wit, bravery and eloquence with Bai Yangbai, and was never tired of it.Suddenly one day, Bai Yangbai said, “Girl, follow my surname.” She sneered at it and thought his was joking again.Suddenly one day, Bai Yangbai said, “Girl, the thing I regret the most in my life is what I did when I first met you.” She thought he regretted saving her, so she punched him and said, “It’s too late to regret. I don’t want to die anymore.” She also tentatively asked the identity of the strange man in the
He Danggui was very shocked. She unconsciously wrapped in the quilt and moved towards Meng Xuan’s arms. After a while, she heard Zhu Quan’s voice again, “No. I’ve searched inside and outside of Qi Lu Yard. And I am pretty sure that apart from the three of us, there is no living person within 50 zhang (a unit of length in ancient China) of the yard. I just rushed out as soon as I heard the sound. There is no one in the world that I can’t chase. Therefore, the noise outside the yard is probably caused by birds and beasts, instead of someone eavesdropping.”After He Danggui quietly listened to these words, she suddenly breathed a sigh of relief, because she found that the voices of Qi Xuanyu and Zhu Quan were clearly sounding in her ears, but not in the Su Mei Yard! In other words, the two speakers were far away from Su Mei Yard, and they were even in Qi Lu Yard on the other side of Luo’s Mansion, but their voices appeared in Su Mei Yard, which was 3 miles apart!
He Danggui took a deep breath and then laughed secretly whether she lost her head. She even believed that Bai Yangbai and Qi Xuanyu, Taoist priests who claimed to know the fate. She studied carefully about the I Ching and the Eight Diagrams, but in the end, she didn’t divine her death. Even the divination master Bai Yangbai couldn’t help her make the divination. Whatever previous and present lives, immortals and ghosts, people were born in heaven and earth and couldn’t even grasp the fate of this life. How could they divine the previous life of the previous life? It was still unknown that how many previous lives a person had.At the very moment, there was a voice showing fright from Qi Lu Yard, and the voice came from Zhu Quan, who always didn’t show his emotion!He said in confusion, “Xuanyu, do you mean my Tenth Sister? But she...was disfigured in the fire of the palace in the 14th year of Hongwu. How do you know that she looks the same as He Danggui? In
Hearing arrogant Meng Xuan lumping her and Zhu Quan together again, He Danggui didn’t want to explain. Some misunderstandings could be explained in a few words, while some feelings were beyond words. She once regarded Meng Xuan as the kind of person who had a tacit understanding with her. With just one eye, instead of too many words, they could read minds with each other by the same temperament and same temperature.Now, she became a little colder, while he became a little hotter. There wasn’t the same temperature anymore. So, He Danggui simply rejected his kindness, “This matter bothers you. I have asked a new one to help me. There is no need for the fake proposal. Thank you very much.”“A new one?” Meng Xuan squinted, “You mean, you called another man to propose a fake marriage, and you even prepare to marry that person? Why? Why not me?”He Danggui heard his bad tone and didn’t intend to talk too much with him. She just said, “You have a cou
After a muffled plop, Zhu Quan’s voice sounded, “Is it okay to leave him here? Will he remember that we have been in his courtyard and gossip everywhere after he wakes up?”Qi Xuanyu pondered, “Chuan has already had the ability to control Luo Baiqian’s words, acts and thinking ability to a certain extent and can keep his mouth shut. Let’s go, My Lord. Let’s sit in the main hall of the outer courtyard. Madam Luo will hold a banquet. Do you intend to disclose your identity?”Zhu Quan paused and said, “My Eldest Sister has three daughters. Her second daughter, Xiancao, is about the same age as Yiyi. Did Lord Yan give Yiyi’s jade to Xiancao?” He Danggui frowned for the title “Yiyi”. Zhu Quan called her at random.“What?” Qi Xuanyu was surprised, “Are you going to help He Danggui get her jade back? What reason are you going to use to ask for it? Or will you go to Princess Lin’an’s Mansion to steal it in the middle of the night?” He Danggui didn’t k
He Danggui was choked with the soup. She wanted to cough, but she didn’t dare to. Listening to this conversation, she wondered if someone had gotten into the Su Mei Yard and had a love affair... Did Madam Luo’s maid Gan Cao hang herself yesterday? What was going on? The voice of the man in the affair sounded familiar to her, but she couldn’t remember it for a while. She held back her cough and whispered, “Shall we leave quickly? Make room for them.”Meng Xuan still took the chopsticks to serve He Danggui and said slowly, “There are so many rooms in the yard. How could it be such a coincidence that they would choose this one? You just had a few mouthfuls. How can you be disturbed by strangers and wasted a table of delicacies? Come on, have some more.”There were so many dishes on the table. He Danggui didn’t want to disappoint Meng Xuan for his good intention to cook the soup himself, so she immersed herself in the dishes. She wanted to eavesdrop on Zhu Quan
When it was dark in the late afternoon, the maids in Luo’s Mansion ran back and forth between Xin Rong Hall and the kitchen with joy. Madam Luo entertained distinguished guests today, including Third Childe Meng Ying of the Meng’s Family, Childe Feng Yang of Feng’s Family and Childe Ning Yuan. The three handsome and noble childes were all honored guests. It was most suitable to describe the scene that humble house was honored by their presence. It was the third day of the Lunar New Year. With the occasional sound of firecrackers on the street and the aroma of cooking food in the air, it had already been filled with strong festival atmosphere, though people had not eaten the food.Two maids walked over with the fruit plates. One comforted the other, “It is the Spring Festival now. Even if you want to burn joss paper for Gan Cao, you should wait until the tenth day of the Lunar New Year. These things are taboos during the New Year and even should not be mentioned.” It was
Sun Meiniang cried out, “I treat my sister-in-law Chuanxiong with kindness. When she was sent back to our house by He’s Family, I was afraid that she was living in another yard and there would be a shortage of food and clothing, so I kept her here. She lived in Bao Qin Ge for a period of time. I didn’t expect that she was such a vicious person. She was jealous of seeing her second brother and I being very much in love, so she harmed our whole family in such a way. She dug and buried evil things in our courtyard! Madam! The note is attached to a cursed puppet. In addition to the horoscope of my husband, there were mine and Qiong’s. Those puppets were stuck by so many needles!”Madam Luo held the note in meditation for a while, and couldn’t believe it. She walked to a half-person-high standing lantern under the porch and looked at it twice. She was the most familiar with Chuanxiong’s characters. When Chuanxiong was a child, she supervised her practice of calligraphy. Late
