My Lady Always Lacks Ambition-Chapter 1037 - 1008: Are There Really That Many Possessions by Ghosts?

Chapter 1037: Chapter 1008: Are There Really That Many Possessions by Ghosts?

Sure, here is the translation of the text from the Chinese novel into English:

Although Nuantang is a tea house, the environment is tranquil and elegant, each courtyard has its unique charm. Even in the winter when the snow is white and thick, the scenery is poetic and picturesque. Led by Qingqing, Qin Liuxi followed Tong Miao’er through the corridor, arriving at a courtyard called Xiangyi, where they heard a chaotic scream.

Tong Miao’er quickened her steps and rushed into the elegant room, seeing her aunt, Mrs. Cheng, with a pale face leaning weakly in the servant’s arms. On the ground, there was a plump girl, hair disheveled, screaming wildly, her mouth shouting something incomprehensible, resembling madness, as if possessed, unable to be held by several people.

Everyone in the room was terrified, and on the other side, an aristocratic woman clutched her chest, looking shocked. On the ground, there was a broken string of Buddha Beads; beside her stood a man with sword-like brows and starry eyes, dignified, frowning as he looked at the crazy young girl.

"Mad, mad, it’s probably the Evil Ghost possessing her. Quickly, go to the Yufu Temple and Jinhua Temple to invite the master for exorcism!" someone shouted.

Upon hearing this, Mrs. Cheng’s vision turned black, almost fainting with despair.

If they really invited a master, her daughter’s reputation would be ruined.

"Fifth Sister." Tong Miao’er pounced on the girl on the ground, getting kicked but ignoring the pain, turned to Qin Liuxi: "Sister."

Qin Liuxi looked at Cheng Yumi’s hands grasping wildly, her eyes rolling upward, face manic. She already took a silver needle from her wallet and inserted it at the ghost heart point, then skillfully pressed another acupuncture point.

Cheng Yumi’s body stiffened, seeming to lose all strength, fell softly, quietened down, yet her eyes remained blank and dim, complexion sallow, truly as if her spirit was drained by some ghosts, devoid of the energy and spirit a young girl should have.

"Fifth Sister, how are you?" Tong Miao’er lifted her, leaning her against herself.

"My child." Mrs. Cheng pushed away the servant beside her, also rushing towards Cheng Yumi.

Tong Miao’er blocked her: "Aunt, don’t touch the silver needle."

Mrs. Cheng hurriedly avoided it, could not care to ask her why she was here, turned to Qin Liuxi: "This young lady, what happened to my daughter?"

"What else, probably bumped into something filthy. Mrs. Cheng, it seems today is not a good day for outings, we should reschedule." The aristocratic woman looked disdainfully at the now calm Cheng Yumi.

What bad luck, she already knew the Miss Five of Mr. Ping Chang’s family was overly plump, but considering the good family background and hearing Mr. Ping Chang prepared an elaborate dowry with eighty-eight carriers for this lady, so she compromised to come for a viewing.

Never expected that this Miss Five could attract such filthy possessions; how unlucky can she be?

Mrs. Cheng’s face darkened, said: "Mrs. Bai, the matter is not yet understood, can’t conclude hastily."

"Then how could this young girl suddenly go mad? If not possessed by ghosts, then what is it? Mrs. Cheng, if Miss Five has some hidden ailment, she shouldn’t be brought out for viewing, isn’t this harming others?" Mrs. Bai sneered.

"You!"

Qin Liuxi said: "Just a flare-up, phlegm dampness rising to the neck causing irritability. It’s just a sudden acute symptom, no ghost possession involved."

Her voice was crisp like frost and snow, drawing everyone’s attention.

Seeing her stand like a pine tree, possessing an ethereal presence, all were momentarily silent.

"Who are you?" Mrs. Bai, feeling her words contradicted, was somewhat displeased.

Qin Liuxi calmly replied: "I am the temple master of the Li City Qingping Temple, Daoist name Buqiu."

Mrs. Bai frowned, from what small place did she emerge, unfamiliar.

Mrs. Cheng’s eyes lit up, said: "Is it the master who cured Miao’er?"

"Aunt, it’s indeed her. She said cousin had an acute condition, then it must be so. Don’t worry." Tong Miao’er comforted.

Mrs. Cheng said: "Oh dear, please kindly let the master feel my daughter’s pulse to see what’s the matter?"

"Just a sudden flare-up. She probably didn’t sleep well last night, liver qi stagnated into knots, liver dryness transformed into fire, coupled with stimulation, heart fire flourishing, thus resembling mania." With outsiders present, Qin Liuxi didn’t elaborate on what she observed.

"How could she be stimulated?"

Qin Liuxi glanced at the man, with a somewhat mocking tone: "Being a bastard’s mother upon entering the house, if it’s me, I’d go mad too."

Her words dropped, the elegant room became so quiet you could hear a pin drop.

Bai Yu’s pupils contracted, eyes dodging, somewhat guilty.

Mrs. Bai’s eyelids twitched, first to reprimand: "You’re talking nonsense, what do you mean by this?"

Qin Liuxi looked at Mrs. Cheng, innocently asked: "You don’t know?"

Mrs. Cheng returned from her shock, glared at Mrs. Bai’s group, asked: "Master, what should we know?"

"He already has a child." Qin Liuxi glanced at Bai Yu, said: "What, you didn’t know about this?"

"Nonsense, what are you rambling about, my son is a righteous and upstanding man, abstaining from unseemly actions, how could he have a child before marriage? You God Stick making nonsense, beware I get you arrested!" Mrs. Bai trembled with rage, pointing at Qin Liuxi and cursed: "You’re tarnishing my son’s reputation, the Bai family won’t let you go!"

Mrs. Cheng’s eyes squinted slightly, Mrs. Bai’s expression seemed a bit guilty, and that’s why her voice was stern yet weak.

Qin Liuxi coldly gazed at her finger, said: "I’m not making nonsense, you indeed already have a grandchild. His Children Palace is plump and red, left male right female, the left Children Palace is very full, he has a boy, the child is still newborn."

"Based on your young age, taking yourself as an accomplished master, speaking casually as if true, really laughable..."

Qin Liuxi interrupted her, impatiently said: "Then the person you killed, whether it’s true, you know perfectly well in your mind, isn’t it?"

Mrs. Bai’s expression changed.

Bai Yu froze too, looked at Mrs. Bai.

Qin Liuxi continued: "If you still want me to say more, I can do so and offer you a fortune reading for free."

Her eyes fixed on Mrs. Bai, the latter startled into retreating two steps, swallowed her saliva, said to Mrs. Cheng: "Mrs. Cheng, truly remarkable, if you look down on my son just say so, why invite this so-called master for this act, humiliating us? A great man need not fear no wife, Yu, let’s go."

"Stop!" Mrs. Cheng angrily shouted, glared at Mrs. Bai said: "Leaving so hastily, are you guilty or eager to deal with your grandchild?"

Mrs. Cheng was furious, she was no fool, Mrs. Bai’s words were finding a way out while shifting blame.

Hence, Qin Liuxi must have been right, this seemingly elegant and dignified talent, indeed already has a ’wife’ and child outside.

Good, truly excellent!

The Bai family has gone too far!
