Quick Travel: Dream Hunt

Chapter 62 The Oiran's Struggle 27

Hongying got the embroidery manual, four servants who knew kung fu, two maids, a housewife who swept the floor and a housewife who cooked. When she came back she was so happy that she couldn't stop smiling. She didn't look like a master at all, but more like a noisy lark.

Afraid that these servants might turn against her and harm Hongying in the future, not only did she make them sign a death contract, she also let the system find a pill that could control people to be obedient. It wasn't complete control, but it could make them loyal to Hongying and not turn against her, but it didn't affect people's thinking.

In the evening, she ate the meal cooked by the newly hired maid. The taste was a little bland, but not bad. It seemed that Hongying liked it very much, so she felt relieved.

At nightfall, she put on the invisibility talisman again and quickly went to the Zhenguo Mansion. The purpose of her coming was to meet the saint of Southern Xinjiang who could plant poisonous insects—the mother of Wang Xiaotong, the wife of the eldest son of the Zhenguo Mansion.

Seeing the huge Mansion of the Duke of Zhenguo, she was indeed surprised. After all, he was only a duke, but it was not much smaller than the Imperial Garden of the Imperial Palace. It seemed that he was doing well and could live in such a large space, with so many precious flowers and plants. It was really luxurious.

Fearing that the Duke of Zhenguo might be a good man, she did not dare to visit him first, but instead ran around until she found the courtyard of the eldest son of the concubine, Wang Yaozu. However, she discovered that there was still some candlelight in the house. She walked up quietly, wet the window paper with her fingers, and looked inside.

It’s okay to take a look at it, it’s too erotic and I can’t handle it. Forget it, let’s find something else and come back later.

After walking around the yard, she found that most of them were asleep. Only a remote house was still flickering with a faint candlelight. She walked over without thinking, poked a hole and looked inside as usual. This time, there was no erotic scene, only an old woman guarding a woman who was still in the weather, combing her hair and saying:

"Madam, don't be angry. The master probably saw that the vixen was a little bit lustful, so he didn't care about the limit and stayed with the vixen every day. As long as Madam cheers up and recovers from the illness, why worry that the master won't come? Besides, you and the master have been in love for most of your life, how could you forget about the lady because of a vixen? Madam, don't think about it, let's take a rest and have a good sleep. I will call the doctor to see the lady tomorrow."

The woman sitting in front of the mirror, still feeling the wind and rain, frowned and sighed:

"What a pity! My body is not in good condition. I have been attacked many times and I am getting weaker and weaker. I don't know how long I can survive. Alas..."

Unexpectedly, as soon as she finished speaking, the old woman behind her quickly looked around and even walked to the window and door to look. Seeing no one, she quickly walked to the woman, patted her on the back and said:

"Miss, you are confused. Walls have ears. How can you talk nonsense? If you are weak, take medicine and recuperate. When you are well, the master will come. If you don't take care of yourself, the master will not come when he sees you so sick."

The woman who was still in the storm shook her head and said:

"Grandma, you don't understand. I've lived such a tiring life. If it goes on like this, it'll be fine. I can just die, but I can't accept this. What's so good about Jinniang? Everyone loves her, and Wang Yaozu has been worried about her for more than 20 years. And I gave up my identity to cook for him, and even tolerated him taking a concubine. This is how he treats me for 20 years. I really can't accept this. Ahem, ahem, the power of the love Gu is getting weaker and weaker. I'm afraid that the mother Gu can no longer suppress the child Gu. Sooner or later, I will be backlashed and die. But as long as I can survive that bitch Jinniang, my life will not be lived in vain. Ahem, ahem..."

The old woman patted her on the back and said:

"Okay, young lady, don't let your imagination run wild. The master is still thinking about you, right? Otherwise, he wouldn't have asked someone to send you medicine."

The woman smiled bitterly:

"If my second brother hadn't said a few more words at the family dinner, would the master have come to give me those medicines just for show? The Gu worms are becoming more and more active, and they can no longer be restrained. In addition, in the past few days, one of the Gu worms in my body died for no reason, and another one became listless. After the backlash, I couldn't tell which one was which, and I didn't know who was in trouble."

The old woman comforted her, "Miss, please stop imagining. Miss, you are a very agile person, and you have the same fate Gu that you planted yourself. As long as the young master is not dead, Miss will be fine. As for the other Gu insects, they are just pawns. Why should Miss care so much? All right, I will wait for you to go to bed and rest."

The woman frowned, sighed, and nodded: "Okay, grandma, you can go to sleep too. I can do it myself."

The old woman nodded helplessly and left the room.

When there was no more movement in the room, the eavesdropping Ting He sneaked in, used a sleeping charm on the woman, then used a mantra charm, and quickly asked:

"Who is the Jinniang you just mentioned?"

The woman on the bed opened her eyes and blurted out:

"She is a bitch who attracts bees and butterflies. She is a cheap ladder who can only seduce men and make them chase after her crazily."

Ting He, who was listening to the news carefully, was very upset when she heard this. She felt that this woman was sick and was being hostile to women. She changed the question and asked:

"When did you and Wang Yaozu know Jinniang, and how long have you known her?"

The woman on the bed gnashed her teeth:

"That year, Southern Xinjiang was destroyed. I hurriedly embarked on the road of escape under the protection of my guards and my grandmother. However, the pursuers were relentless, so I made up my mind to hide in the desert with my men. When we were almost dying of thirst, we met a caravan from Shengjing. Yaozu was in that caravan. He saved me when he saw that I was injured, let me get on his camel, and brought me water. He was gentle and polite, and took good care of me. I quickly fell for him. With someone to rely on, I followed him and moved forward with the caravan..."

At this point, her tone became even more vicious, and she continued:

"Who would have thought that a lone man and woman would join the caravan after they met us and walked with us. We originally thought that they were a couple who had strayed into the desert by mistake, but the woman said that she and the man were not familiar with each other and that they just happened to meet. Seeing that the man was almost dying of thirst, she gave him a sip of water. Who would have thought that the man followed her for three days and she couldn't get rid of him."

"It was fine three days after we joined the caravan, but it got hotter and drier later, and we were about to give up. Who knew that woman was not a human at all, but a wizard. She could take objects from the air and make water come out of her palms. When we had no food, she could always conjure up food. When we had no water, she would always get a handful of water to share with us. That man often surrounded her and showed his courtesy. Our whole team was sweating and our clothes were tattered, but that wizard could appear in front of us every day in clean clothes, causing a commotion in the whole caravan and attracting the attention of Yaozu, Yaozu's brother Ziyu, and the man who came with the wizard."
