Upon hearing this, Situtu Xueer felt a pang in her heart, thinking that this Celestial Master Zhang was the only Heavenly Master in Moli Country and not just an ordinary person. At that ti, Xiao Taohong must not co out, and she was also aware that this Heavenly Master was everywhere inquiring about Little Tiger.
"What’s wrong?"
"I guess the Eldest Miss doesn’t know yet, but now it’s being spread all over the General’s Mansion that the Second Miss has dread of Auntie Tang for seven consecutive nights. The Little Young Master is scared, and the Old Madam suspects that Auntie Tang’s ghost is haunting, so she has invited the Heavenly Master to co and exorcise the ghost." Zixia recounted everything she had heard outside to Situtu Xueer verbatim.
"Hmm, when the ti cos, we’ll just take refuge outside."
"It’s their trouble to deal with, it doesn’t concern us. Why should the Eldest Miss be afraid of them!"
Hearing that the Eldest Miss wanted to avoid them, Zixia felt a little indignant.
Now, the Old Madam and the Second Miss have both started to target the Eldest Miss. In the General’s Mansion, only the General is genuinely on her side.
"It’s not about fear or not; the entire mansion is in chaos, and it’s distressing to see. Why not go out to the shops outside, have tea and snacks? Isn’t that quite nice?"
Zixia thought it made sense. The last ti the Heavenly Master ca to the mansion to collect ghosts, the entire mansion was in chaos with smoke everywhere and a pungent sll of incense, much like a temple; it was indeed inappropriate.
"Alright, then when the ti cos, I’ll accompany the Eldest Miss to go shopping and have snacks outside." Zixia said jokingly.
"Good."
Because of her past life experiences, Xueer saw Zixia differently than the other maids. Other maids were envious of Zixia, as the Eldest Miss treated her like a sister, and the perks went without saying. Whenever the Eldest Miss was happy, she would generously reward her.
The next day.
Early in the morning, the Old Madam hurriedly tidied up, and after breakfast, she gathered everyone in the mansion at the door to await the Heavenly Master’s arrival.
Situtu Qinger glanced over the crowd and noticed that Situtu Xueer was not there. Turning her eyes, she imdiately said inadvertently: "Oh, why hasn’t the Eldest Sister co out?"
Upon hearing this, everyone turned to search the crowd and indeed did not see any sign of Situtu Xueer.
Situ Zhi unapologetically said: "The Eldest Sister is relying on her power at the General’s Mansion, becoming increasingly disrespectful. It’s one thing not to regard Grandmother, but even disregarding the Heavenly Master. If the Heavenly Master blas her, wouldn’t the General’s Mansion be in trouble because of her?"
The Old Madam heard this and was annoyed, turning to Situ Yongjie and saying: "Jiejie, look, this is your cherished daughter. How does her behavior and conduct qualify her to manage the General’s Mansion?"
Recently, the Old Madam constantly slandered in front of Situ Yongjie, suggesting that he revoke Situtu Xueer’s significant power and hand over the managent to Situtu Qinger. The reason was simple; Situtu Qinger was Situ Zhi’s own sister, and even if she deceived anyone, she wouldn’t deceive her own brother, would she?
However, with the affair between Auntie Tang and Doctor Wang being exposed, Situ Yongjie began doubting the identity of Situtu Qinger and her three siblings and naturally refused to listen to the Old Madam.
Situ Yongjie casually said: "Mother, Xueer still hasn’t recovered from the fright last ti! Just let her rest a bit."
"You just spoil her."
The Old Madam was sowhat outraged: "They’re all your children; why do you only spoil her?"
