After getting off the carriage and entering the Wu Mansion, Jiang Yanwan felt cold all over.

Twisted branches hovered in the air, and the heavy beams blocked the sun, casting darkness on the ground.

As soon as I entered the room, I saw a graceful and elegant lady sitting on a long couch with embossed crutch patterns.

She was wearing a silver-purple Su brocade stand-up collar and a carved dark purple horse-faced skirt, but her face was sallow and her cheeks were sunken, as if she was very ill.

Jiang Yanwan bowed slightly, but the old lady didn't reply for a long time, and she didn't know whether she was asleep or not.

She lowered her head, and her neck felt as if it were being tugged by thousands of hammers, so sore and aching that it seemed to be broken.

"Stand up."

After a while, the old lady's weak voice was heard, and she raised her thin hand like a dead branch and waved it.

The nanny next to her held a small wooden box and said:

"According to the custom of the Wu Mansion, every child who comes here will be given a peace locket. I heard that this child has suffered a lot of grievances in the Taoist temple, so this locket will keep him safe."

She opened the wooden box and found a clear peace locket on it, the jade was crystal clear and pure, and the texture was warm.

Is this a slap in the face followed by a date as a reward?

Jiang Yanwan stood aside respectfully and winked at A Yan.

With his mother's approving gaze, Ah Yan clasped his hands together, bowed forward, and thanked her in a baby voice.

He took a few steps forward and picked up the safety lock just a few seconds later.

With a "snap", the safety lock broke into two halves. One half was held between Ayan's fingers, and the other half fell to the ground and broke into several pieces.

Seeing this, the old lady's face turned black and she coughed and spit out a mouthful of blood.

The nanny's expression tensed and she patted the old lady's back to help her calm down.

A triumphant smile flashed across the face of the maid leaning against the wall, but she quickly concealed her emotion and stood there obediently.

Little did she know that her expression had already been captured by Jiang Yanwan.

It seems that someone doesn't want them to enter the house.

Just as I was thinking about it, the cold voice of the nanny came.

"A few days ago, the Taoist priest said that a child entering the mansion would cause trouble for the old lady. It turns out that you are the scourge!"

“The evil spirit is so strong that even the safety lock is broken. Someone, take him to be purified!

It is said to be purification, but in fact people are locked up in a small dark room and tortured.

First, the fire was lit, and the house was as hot as an oven. People would get blisters if they just touched the ground.

Then they would wash people with ice and continuously pour ice water from deep wells on them, until they fainted from the cold and then woke them up again.

During this time, ghosts and monsters danced around, making strange tambourine sounds.

In his previous life, King Jin tricked A Yan into taking him for purification. When he came back, he was covered in blisters and had a high fever. He almost lost his life!

We can’t let them take Ah Yan to purify...

The elegant room was spacious, with bright windows, but the person on the couch was silent.

Jiang Yanwan suddenly grabbed the old lady's hand, her "cough and asthma point".

The next second, her hands were suddenly twisted behind her back, and she felt a sharp pain accompanied by a roar from behind her.

"Be bold!"

When she turned around, Jiang Yanwan met the angry face of the nanny.

The old lady looked worried, but she didn't have the strength to pull her hand away.

Suddenly, a tiny airflow passed through her throat, she swallowed her saliva, and stopped coughing!

"I can cure the old lady's illness."

"Please ask the old lady to set up the curtains, and I will treat you."

Jiang Yanwan spoke every word with determination.

In my previous life, I followed Prince Jin and dealt with all kinds of difficult and complicated diseases.

The veins on Mammy's temples twitched and she glared at her in dissatisfaction.

"What are you treating? You are of such lowly status that you are not even worthy of carrying the old lady's shoes."

"With your poor appearance, what precious medicinal herbs can you come up with? Are you just picking up a few leaves to deceive the old lady?"

"Alan." The old lady called out solemnly, "Let her try."
