Gu Shiyi stayed in Lanyue City for three days, staying in the inn and not daring to go out. If she had to follow the cautious nature of wandering around with the old Taoist priests, she would have been in trouble for a long time after the Baicao Pavilion incident. How far you have run!
  But now she had something to do and couldn't leave Blue Moon City, so she waited until the time agreed with Huang Liuye came before she disguised herself in the inn and went to the Huang Mansion. Although her disguise was not suitable for cultivators, It's basically just a cover-up, but it's better to pretend than not to pretend at all.

But she didn't know that the Baicao Pavilion had been closed for business since she left. And today, when she sneaked into the Huang Mansion and met Huang Liuye, there was a sign in front of the Baicao Pavilion. The man named Shang and the slender figure of the woman appeared,
  "Master, this is it..."

"Hmm...why is the door closed?"

The two of them looked at each other with doubts, and both had a bad premonition.

"Shang San... open the door!"

The middle-aged man nodded and hit the door with a spell. The two shop doors opened with a creak. They were just closed normally and were not sealed with a magic circle. The two of them were even more shocked. When they entered it, they saw that There was no one in the front hall, no one in the back hall, and in the small building in the backyard, two maids were lying on the ground, with corpse spots already appearing on their bodies. In the inner room, a middle-aged woman with burns all over her body had a fist-sized hole in her chest. The heart had been taken out of the hole, Shang San was shocked.

"Where's the Blood Erosion Grass?"

The two of them scanned the jade box with their spiritual consciousness. They looked at each other and their faces were as gloomy as water. Shang San said coldly,

"Did that mortal kill Wu Niang?"

The woman shook her head,

"Impossible. That mortal just knows some Taoism. In the eyes of us cultivators, he is just like an ant. I asked you to give her something because I thought she would not be noticed. Wu Niang has practiced Qi for seven years. Level, her two maids also have some skills, it is impossible for a mortal to make Wu Niang like this..."

The woman pointed at Wang Wuniang's festering body.

"Now we can only search for Wu Niang's remaining soul to see if we can find out the truth and the whereabouts of the Blood Erosion Grass!"

Shang San nodded, waved his hand and placed several formation flags around the corpse of Wang Wuniang. He murmured a few times and made an almost inaudible sound. Sure enough, he saw a ray of light rising from the middle-aged woman's corpse that had begun to rot. The white mist was extremely light and drifting, as if a breeze could blow it away. The woman frowned,
  "Her soul was taken away piece by piece. Whether she can find out the whereabouts of the Blood Erosion Grass depends on luck!"

He raised his hand and cast a magic spell into the white mist that was almost disappearing. The white mist condensed and slowly revealed the blurry figure of the middle-aged woman. The woman asked,

"Wang Yun, where is the Blood Erosion Grass?"

The soul swayed a few times, looking at the woman with a dull expression. Her mouth moved but she didn't say a word. The woman asked twice more, but the soul was stunned and didn't respond at all. Both the woman and Shang San It's a huge disappointment,
  "It seems that I can't ask!"

Shang San looked unwilling and annoyed.
  "Master, the blood-eroded grass was obtained from the cold wind valley by the master at the risk of nine deaths. As long as he brought it back to the door, he could inherit the position of the door leader. But at the last moment, he failed!"

The woman was silent for a moment and said,
  "This matter has not yet reached the worst point. As long as the blood-eroded grass does not fall into the hands of the eldest sister, there is still room for change..."

After thinking about it,

"That mortal woman... have you left a mark on her body? Let's try first to see if you can find her and ask something from her mouth!"

Shang San nodded and said,
  "Villain, when I placed the restraint on her body, I planted a mark on her body. As long as she is within a hundred miles of the villain, the villain will definitely feel it..."

After thinking about it,

"If you want to sense the mark of the villain accurately, you need to set up a magic circle..."

The woman nodded and looked around.
  "We can't stay here for long, let's leave first!"

After they left, the three corpses in the Baicao Pavilion also disappeared. Not long after, a thin old man took over the place, and no one mentioned the previous shopkeeper Wang Wuniang again!
  At this time, in the study room of Huang Mansion, Huang Liuye was facing Gu Shi,
  "The matter has been arranged for the girl. It is a coincidence that the eldest lady of the Sun family gave birth to two sons and a daughter. The younger daughter was weak when she was born, so she hired three wet nurses to take care of her in turn. Even if she raised her like this, I was extremely careful, and the young lady of the Sun family had been kept in Mrs. Sun's courtyard, and one of Miss Sun's wet nurses was a distant relative of our Huang family. I sent someone to see her, and spent some money to bribe her. After you enter the Sun family, she will personally select you and pick you to serve beside her, so that you can enter the yard of the eldest young lady of the Sun family!"

Gu Shiyi was overjoyed when he heard this.

"Thank you Mr. Huang Liu!"

After saying that, he stood up and clasped his fists, Huang Liuye smiled and said,

"Miss Gu is too polite. She has been very kind to our Huang family, so she should take care of some small things!"

Gu Shiyi asked Huang Liuye to keep his secret again. Huang Liuye nodded.

"It goes without saying, it's natural!"

The Sun family is also a cultivating family. Although it is not as powerful as the Gu family, it is still considered the number one in Blue Moon City. No matter how wealthy Huang Liuye is, he does not dare to compete with the cultivating family. He helps people with ulterior motives. When he entered Sun's house and the matter was revealed, he would follow suit, so he would shut up even if Gu Shiyi said nothing!
  Gu Shiyi got an opportunity at Huang Liuye's place, so he didn't waste any time. He quietly went out from the back door of Huang's Mansion and walked to Sun's Mansion.

The Sun Mansion is not too far from the Huang Mansion, about three streets apart. The Sun family is the same as the Gu family. Real cultivators do not live in cities with mixed atmosphere. Most of them choose the mountains outside the city that are full of spiritual energy. live.

The Gu family wanted to guard Blue Moon Lake, so they approached the lake. The Sun family found a spiritual spring in the mountains outside Blue Moon City. The children in the family practiced there, and the family members and descendants without spiritual roots It is to live in the city.

The eldest son of the Sun family has no spiritual roots, but the two sons he gave birth to with the eldest daughter of the Gu family, one with wood spiritual roots and the other with water spiritual roots, were sent to the mountains to cultivate under the knees of their elders, with only a frail little daughter to accompany them. Be around the couple.

This young lady from the Sun family is now four years old. She has been sick since she was a baby, and now her illness is getting worse. The Suns love her as if they are eyes, fearing that the people around them will not take care of her to the best of their ability. Therefore, he is very harsh on the people around his daughter, but there is one thing that is wrong. That is to hit or scold him. At the least, he will be kicked out of the house, and at worst, he will be beaten to death!

As time passed, this reputation spread, and everyone in Lanyue City knew that the Miss Sun family was not easy to take care of. Being her servant could cost you your life if you were not careful, so the poor people in the city even sold themselves into slaves. I’m willing to go to Sun’s house.

Nowadays, those who are willing to go to the Sun family to serve the young lady, except for some children of poor families in Lanyue City who are too poor to take the blame, are those outsiders who don't know the details.

Gu Shiyi pretended to be such a foreigner and was brought into the Sun Mansion by the steward of the Sun family who had received Huang Liuye's money. She followed a dozen servants of different ages and appearances into a place. In the big yard, an old woman came out and gave each of them a set of clothes.
  "Put them all on!"

Everyone divided into men and women and entered the room respectively. Gu Shiyi did not pretend to be a man this time. He followed several women into the room, put on their clothes, and followed the old woman's request to put their hair into a bun. Gu Shiyi The old woman turned her head and asked when she saw it,

"Are you already married?"

Gu Shiyi looked pitiful.
  "Returning to my mother, the slave family married someone, but the man died shortly after the marriage, and the husband's family kicked the slave family out. The slave family had nowhere to live and had to sell themselves into slavery!"

The old woman was kind-hearted. After hearing this, she sighed and said,
  "It's a hard life..."

After thinking about it,

"Looking at your body, you should be quite strong, right?"

Gu Shi nodded,

"One-third of an acre of land in my mother-in-law's house is cultivated by my slave family..."

"That's good... follow me to the big kitchen later. We happen to be short of a rough woman to cut wood!" This old woman is kind-hearted and doesn't want her to go to the eldest lady's courtyard. Now she is not only outside , even the servants in the Sun Mansion became pale when they talked about the young lady's yard, as if it was a dragon's pond and a tiger's den.

Gu Shiyi nodded with gratitude on his face, but secretly complained in his heart.
  "Don't let this old lady blame everything on me!"

After everyone had changed their clothes and stood in the courtyard again, the old lady told them some of the rules of the Sun Mansion, how much money they could earn every month, and what kind of work there was in each courtyard.
  "These jobs range from light to heavy, some with a lot of money, some with a little money. The money in the yard of the eldest young lady is the highest, and you can get two taels of silver a month..."

As soon as the old woman's words came out, everyone became a little commotion.

Two taels of silver!
  These two taels of silver can cover the expenses of a large family for three months in Blue Moon City. Seeing everyone's reaction, the old woman's eyes flashed with a trace of imperceptible complexity, but she said,
  "The young lady's yard is not something you can go to if you want to..."

She glanced at everyone and thought to herself,

"I don't know who among these people will be unlucky!"

He sighed and said again,

"You should memorize the rules I just mentioned. The people from each house will come to choose you later. Where you can go and whether you can win the attention of the masters depends on your luck!"

After hearing this, everyone hurriedly lowered their heads and memorized the rules. Only Gu Shiyi also lowered his head with an honest face.

Soon, the first group of pickers arrived in the courtyard. She was a middle-aged woman in Tsing Yi. Her hair was neatly combed and she looked clean and tidy, but her expression was a little cold. When the old woman saw this, Went up to him,
  "It's actually Huang Wet Nurse who came here in person!"

The middle-aged woman nodded towards the old woman and said softly,
  "There is a yard cleaner nearby. I heard that a new group of people have arrived today, so I came over to take a look..."

As she spoke, her eyes swept over everyone's faces, and the old woman said to everyone,

"This is the nurse in the eldest lady's yard. She is the most capable mother around the young lady..."

Everyone is still looking forward to those two taels of silver a month, but the God of Wealth has arrived!
  So all of them looked expectantly and looked at Huang Nanny eagerly, hoping that she would choose them. The old woman standing beside her stood blankly. After looking at several women one by one, the middle-aged woman said, He asked,
  "Have any of you ever married?"

Gu Shiyi and four other women stood up.
  Asked again,

"Has anyone ever given birth to a child?"

Gu Shiyi and another woman stood up,
  Asked again,

"Where is the child now?"

Gu Shiyi glanced at Huang Nanny,
  "In my mother-in-law's house... I didn't allow the slave family to be brought out. The slave family's mother-in-law was very vicious. She beat people with sticks when she didn't get her way. Later, she drove the slave family out, and the slave family sold her body!"

These rhetorics are prepared in advance, and those who can answer them are the ones who want to connect!

"Oh……"

Huang Nanny nodded and looked Gu Shiyi up and down again. The Sun Mansion's servant's clothes were loose, and Gu Shiyi deliberately wore them looser. She already had big breasts, so she looked a bit fertile at first glance. She looked like a passing woman, and no one was suspicious after hearing this.

"You are the one!"

After saying that, he turned around and said to the old woman,

"Mother Liu, I want this person!"

The old lady nodded and watched Gu Shiyi follow Huang Nanny out of the courtyard, sighing secretly in her heart.

"Why is it that the hemp rope is cut at the smallest point? It's so pitiful. If you go into that place, I'm afraid you won't be able to stay longer than three months, and you'll have to..."

As I thought about it, I cursed myself again.

"Alas! As a servant, I have to worry about what other people are doing, and I have too much time to worry about myself. I am thankful to God that I can safely hold the monthly silver!"

Now he cheered up and went to deal with others.

Gu Shiyi followed Huang Wen Niang through the Sun Mansion, and when they came to a very grand and spacious courtyard, Huang Wen Niang looked back at her and said,

"This is it, you have to take care of yourself from now on!"

After saying that, he looked at Gu Eleven meaningfully, and Gu Eleven nodded.

"understood!"

The nurse Huang led Gu Shiyi in.

"I'll take you to see the eldest lady first!"

Gu Shi nodded,

"Yes!"

Gu Shiyi followed her around the corridor. After walking for about a quarter of an hour, he arrived at the main courtyard. He saw a row of maids and women standing under the corridor. They all stood in silence with their hands lowered, not daring to breathe loudly. Seeing Huang The wet nurses all bowed when they came over. Huang Wet Nurse had a cold face and did not respond. She led Gu Shiyi to the front door of the front hall.

"Young Madam, I have chosen a new man today and want to show Young Madam..."

Someone inside snorted,
  "come in!"

With a soft and charming voice, Gu Shiyi lowered his head and followed Huang Nanny in. Standing in the hall, a cold gaze swept across her body.

"Head up!"

Gu Shiyi raised his head as he was told, and met the eyes of the person sitting in the seat. Both of them were stunned. The woman sitting in the seat looked to be in her thirties, with fair skin and black hair, beautiful appearance, and gorgeous clothes. The person in the hall, Xiaomai, His skin was thin, his features were sparse, and his clothes were vulgar, but when the two of them looked at each other, they both felt a sense of familiarity in each other's faces.

There is actually a three to four point similarity between their eyebrows!
