Chapter 31 Oh, Young Master, you can’t do it!
After seeing Song Shiwei off, Aunt Rong brought in a basin of water.
She said to Shen Linzhou who was lying on the bed with a smile on her face: "Master, let me wipe your body."
Shen Linzhou frowned and refused with a look of disgust: "No need."
"This is my duty, young master, don't feel embarrassed."
Aunt Rong pulled back the quilt and started to undress Shen Linzhou.
Shen Linzhou struggled and tried not to let her touch him, but he was not as strong as Rong Gu, and soon all his clothes were stripped off.
He was so angry that he shouted, "Don't touch me!"
Rong Gu slapped him on the butt and said, "Behave yourself."
Shen Linzhou's eyes widened, his face turned pale with anger, and he stammered, "You...you...how dare you...ah..."
This damn old woman actually touched him there!
He was so ashamed and angry that he was about to explode in anger, when he suddenly heard Rong Gu mocking him, "Oh, young master, you can't do this.
But don't worry, I know a very effective folk remedy, I will get it for you later so that you can take good care of yourself."
When Shen Linzhou heard her say this, he forgot his anger for a moment and asked, "Do you really know a secret recipe?"
"Of course."
Rong Gu patted her chest and assured: "I'm sure my recipe will be better than the doctor's medicine."
Shen Linzhou was also worried that something might go wrong with his thing. You know, he was now carrying the lifeblood of the Shen family.
The second younger brother is not capable, and the Shen family is counting on him to carry on the family line.
Considering that Aunt Rong had a secret recipe, he could only reluctantly let the person stay.
It won’t be too late to deal with this old slave after I have regained my strength!
Chanzhiyuan.
After Song Shiwei came back, she continued to embroider the unfinished clothes.
Jingque was arranging her embroidery thread and asked, "Will the eldest master keep Rong Gu?"
"Will do."
Song Shiwei said: "I poisoned Shen Linzhou. He should be a useless man now. He needs Rong Gu's prescription to help him regain his strength."
The reason why she knew Rong Gu was from her previous life.
Shen Linchuan refused to have sex with her. She thought he had a hidden illness that he was too embarrassed to talk about, so she secretly inquired about Rong Gu and learned that she was an expert in this.
Jingque widened his eyes and asked, "When did the young lady poison you?"
Song Shiwei asked her: "Have you forgotten the two beads I gave to Shen Linzhou?"
Jingque was so shocked that the poison was put on the bead.
As long as Shen Linzhou plays with that thing, he will be poisoned without anyone knowing.
She was full of admiration, and looked at Song Shiwei with some admiration: "Miss is really amazing, this is how you should deal with such a pervert."
Song Shiwei smiled. Since the fire failed to kill Shen Linzhou, she decided to try a different strategy.
Shen Linzhou must have been very frightened after being poisoned, so she sent Rong Gu over to give him a glimmer of hope.
But this is the price of hope. I don’t know if Shen Linzhou can afford it.
……
Tong Garden.
When Mrs. Shen heard that her son had kept Aunt Rong, she was a little surprised.
But even though Song Shiwei did this, she was still not satisfied.
Especially, I learned from Cai Lian that Song Shiwei was sent to the countryside not because she was told to recuperate, but because she had a bad fate.
Thinking back to when they thought that nothing good had happened to the Shen family since Song Shiwei married into their family.
So Old Madam Shen took the excuse of going out of the city to burn incense and brought her daughter Shen Suyun to Xuanqing Temple outside the city.
Xuanqing Temple is somewhat famous in the capital. Taoist Zixu is the abbot of Xuanqing Temple. He is best at divination and fortune-telling, and it is difficult to get a good divination.
It is said that Taoist Zixu will not meet anyone who is not destined to be with him.
Old Madam Shen came here because of his reputation and met the Taoist Master Zixu very smoothly.
Taoist Master Zixu was about fifty years old, had a tuft of beard, and was wearing a green Taoist robe. He was sitting cross-legged on a cushion, holding a whisk in his hand.
Old Madam Shen walked over, bowed very respectfully and called out, "Master."
Taoist Zixu opened his eyes and glanced at the old lady, then frowned and said, "I see that the old lady's forehead is black and she is carrying bad luck.
May I ask if there has been any unrest in your family recently, or if any of your relatives have met with any unexpected disaster?"
Old Madam Shen was shocked: "The Taoist priest is truly a god."
She hurriedly said, “Ever since my son got married, there has been unrest in our home.
A few days ago, there was a fire in my house and my eldest son was almost burned to death. I would like to ask the Taoist priest to calculate for me whether the cause of this disaster is the bride?"
Taoist Master Zixu said, "Please show me the bride's horoscope."
Old Madam Shen hurriedly handed the note with Song Shiwei's birth date to Taoist Zixu.
Taoist Zixu glanced at the birth data and then started calculating with his fingers.
Not long after, his expression suddenly changed, and he exclaimed: "It's a fate of God, it's a fate of God."
Old Madam Shen widened her eyes and asked, "Master, what is the fate of the Heavenly Evil?"
Taoist Zixu looked a little serious, and he said: "This woman has a strong fate, and will bring harm to those around her.
At the very least, she will be injured or even die. In serious cases, she will also be plagued by disasters. She is a star of misfortune. This woman must not be allowed to stay!"
He shook his head and sighed.
Although Old Madam Shen had already had suspicions, she was still shocked and frightened when she heard Taoist Zixu admit it.
She asked, "Is there any way to crack it?"
Taoist Zixu shook his head: "The fate of the evil spirit cannot be broken. Unless a person dies, this fate will follow him like a shadow."
Old Madam Shen frowned and asked again, "If I divorce her, will it have any impact on my family?"
Taoist Zixu said: "As long as you stay away from this person, you will not be defeated by him."
After hearing Taoist Zixu's answer, Madam Shen already had a plan in mind.
She bowed and thanked him, then left a silver note as a thank you and turned to leave the hall.
Shen Suyun, who was standing outside the door, saw her mother coming out and hurriedly went up to her and asked, "Mother, what did the Taoist priest say?"
Old Madam Shen's legs went weak and she almost fell down. She held Shen Suyun's arm tightly, her face pale as she murmured, "This Song family is really a deadly omen."
Shen Suyun's eyes lit up, and she snorted, "I told you, she is a disaster star, so what should we do?"
Madam Shen narrowed her eyes and said, "Of course I want to divorce her.
Not only do we need to rest, but we also need the Cheng En Marquis’ Mansion to give us an explanation.”
She left Xuanqing Temple with full of anger.
After returning to the capital, Old Madam Shen asked Shen Suyun to go back home to pass on a message to Shen Linchuan, while she went to the Cheng'en Marquis's Mansion.
Uncle Cheng En was entertaining Xiao Jingheng in the flower hall.
Xiao Jingheng drank a cup of tea and explained his purpose, saying, "My Lord, you should know that although the two countries have a truce, the troops are still stationed on the border and require a lot of food and supplies every day.
However, since the truce, the amount of food and supplies distributed by the court has become less and less. The Ministry of Revenue said that this was because the treasury was empty due to years of war.
I heard that more than ten years ago, you, my Lord, donated half of your family wealth to help the imperial court with disaster relief.
I wonder if you are willing to help again now. We can't just watch those soldiers guarding the border starve, don't you think?"
Cheng Enbo had a forced smile on his face, not knowing how to deal with him.
Then the housekeeper came to report: "Master, the old lady of the Shen family wants to see you."
