Chapter 227 The Yellow Talisman is Broken
Xiao Kang's face turned pale. After saying goodbye to Lao Kang in a hurry, she walked away quickly.
Madam Xu looked at Xiao Kang's departing back in surprise, "What happened to the Second Madam? Why are you walking so fast all of a sudden?"
"Don't worry about her, let's go back."
Old Mrs. Kang just thought that Young Mrs. Kang was resentful that she did not give her the right to be the head of the family. What a shallow-sighted person she is.
If I get angry with her, I'm afraid I'll end up in trouble.
Xiao Kang left in a hurry, leaving Su Yueqi and Su Lihan confused. Su Lihan couldn't help asking, "Mom, what's wrong with you?"
Xiao Kang didn't want to scare them, so she said, "You all go back. Mother is tired. Go back and rest for a while."
The two siblings looked at each other strangely and didn't follow.
Xiaokang hurried back to her yard, went straight into her room, and lifted the pillow on the bed, but she didn't find what she was looking for.
"Second Madam, what are you looking for? I'll help you find it." Nanny Ji followed in and said quickly.
"Where is the yellow talisman from yesterday? Wasn't it placed under the pillow?" Xiaokang asked anxiously.
She thought about it all the way when she came back just now, and always felt that the person who hurt Su Yuejie and Liu was most likely the ghost of Campbell.
He didn't come to find me last night because I had the yellow talisman in my hand. He was afraid so he didn't come, but he came to find Su Yuejie because the boy was injured and his body was the weakest, so it was convenient for him to eat him.
The more Xiaokang thought about it, the more he felt that this was the case, so as soon as he came back he immediately looked for the yellow talisman.
"I'll go and ask." Nanny Ji went out quickly, but when she came back, her face didn't look very good.
"Where's my talisman?"
"Second Madam, the maid who was tidying up the bed put the talisman paper on the stool, but it was blown into the basin by the wind and it has now broken into pieces."
Nanny Ji held a small piece of yellow paper in her hand. She couldn't understand why the yellow paper was so thin. It broke into pieces as soon as it got wet.
When Xiaokang saw this, she was shocked. This was her life-saving talisman, how could it become like this?
"Take that little bitch and beat her up. How can she destroy the master's things? Beat her up hard."
Xiaokang grabbed the broken yellow talisman and was so angry that she wanted to kill the maid.
Not long after, the sound of beating was heard outside. The little maid cried and begged for mercy, but it was of no use. In the end, she was beaten unconscious.
Nanny Ji had her carried away, and at the same time called Yang Laoliu and asked him to find the Taoist who gave him the yellow talisman.
Yang Laoliu was complaining in his heart. He just met the Taoist priest on the road. Now he wanted to go find him. Where should he go?
So that night, Xiao Kang was frightened and fainted again. This time, even Nanny Ji saw the ghost of Campbell. The two were so scared that their scalps went numb and they screamed.
After scaring the man to faint, Da Nian went back to his room and slept, hiding his achievements and fame.
Without Xiaokang's saying anything, Nanny Ji was also convinced that the yellow talisman had worked, otherwise why didn't Campbell's ghost appear on the night the yellow talisman was used?
Yang Laoliu took his people to look for the Taoist priest everywhere, and even went to the family where he met the Taoist priest that day to ask, but they didn't know where the Taoist priest came from.
As a result, Yang Laoliu became so anxious that his liver fire rose and several large blisters appeared in his mouth.
Su Qingwan saw everything and said there was no rush. After Xiaokang had a good scare, it would be easier to get the money out.
"Fourth Miss, is someone from the Zhang family coming?" Qing Er said.
"Zhang Jueping?"
Qing Er kept nodding his head, "It's him. He said he wanted to see Su Yunrou and tell her something. Should we let him in?"
"Of course let him in. You should personally send him to see Su Yunrou." Su Qingwan didn't expect that Zhang Jueping would actually come to the Marquis' Mansion.
However, it is very likely that he came here secretly and Mrs. Liu was not aware of it.
Qing Er responded and turned around to do his work.
Su Yunrou was in a bad mood at the moment. The King of Qi hadn't come up with a good solution yet. What should she do? Could she only fake her death?
But what happens after faking her death? She will no longer be a noble lady in the Marquis's mansion and can only live in anonymity. So this is not a good idea.
Otherwise, she could only marry him and kill Prince Rui, but what if the emperor wanted her to be buried with him? So that was not an option either.
Just when I was worrying, a maid came in and said Zhang Jueping had arrived.
"Why is he here?" Su Yunrou frowned when she heard Zhang Jueping's name.
She didn't want to see Zhang Jueping at all now. She felt sick when she thought about him and Prince Rui.
"Sister Rou, you don't even want to see me now?" Zhang Jueping's voice came over.
Su Yunrou looked up and saw Zhang Jueping being carried in by two people. He was extremely thin and looked completely different from the elegant young man he used to be.
"Cousin Zhang, you are injured and should rest at home." Su Yunrou said in a light tone.
Zhang Jueping didn't expect her to be so cold. He didn't believe it before and thought that Su Yunrou didn't come to visit him because she was locked up in the Marquis' Mansion and couldn't get out.
But when I saw her cold and disgusted expression, and her distant and unfamiliar tone, I realized that she really did as her mother said, and didn't want to see me at all.
"You're right. I'm in this state now. I should rest at home." Zhang Jueping laughed at himself. "You're going to marry Prince Rui. That's what you wished for. Congratulations."
Zhang Jueping hopes that Prince Rui will die, but it is obvious that he cannot fulfill his wish.
Su Yunrou frowned even more tightly, feeling that Zhang Jueping was annoying.
After what happened between him and Prince Rui, he felt extremely ashamed and humiliated if he married Prince Rui again. But Zhang Jueping was still here congratulating him. It was simply abominable.
"Go away and don't come to the Marquis' Mansion again. Looking at you makes me feel sick." Su Yunrou said bluntly.
Zhang Jueping felt a dull pain in his heart. Su Yunrou actually said that. It was because of her that he ended up like this.
If it wasn't for helping her get rid of Su Qingwan, he and his mother wouldn't have gone to that farm, their Zhang family wouldn't have fallen to this point, and he wouldn't have become a disabled person!
But now it has become like this. It would have been fine if Su Yunrou hadn't said anything about coming to see him, but now she actually said that he was disgusting.
"Su Yunrou, I didn't expect you to be this kind of woman. I really misjudged you before. I actually thought you were kind and gentle, but I didn't expect you to be such a ruthless villain."
Zhang Jueping's tone also turned cold.
Su Yunrou glanced at him. Zhang Jueping had no value at all in Su Yunrou's eyes. The Zhang family had offended the royal family and there was no way they would ever make a comeback.
"Whatever you say, just kick him out." Su Yunrou ordered.
"Second sister, who are you going to kick out? Eh? Isn't this my cousin from the Zhang family? You're here to see my second sister again. I didn't expect you two have such a good relationship. It's really rare!"
Su Qingwan walked in gracefully from outside. She didn't want to miss this good show at all.
