After the mind-reading and gossip-eating incident, officials in the imperial city were demoted one a

They were from the same hometown as Ye Mian, and were also recognized as goddaughters by Old Madam Ye.

Anyone who can be recognized by the old woman must be extraordinary. Ye Yaoyao finally stopped and stared intently at Xue Ruoxue without saying a word.

The triplets knew she was checking information, so they quickly walked to her side and stood quietly beside her as her protectors.

Xue Ruoxue, who had been staring intently at Ye Yaoyao, was startled to see that Ye Yaoyao's once bright eyes had suddenly become empty and lifeless, and her expression was strange.

A thought couldn't help but cross my mind: "Could it be that after a person goes into their coffin, they really become tainted by something, and stop being like a normal person?"

No wonder her godmother was so afraid; Ye Yaoyao gave her a chilling sense of dread.

In fact, Xue Ruoxue was not the only one who held the same idea; the Ye family mother and daughter also felt the same way.

They had already noticed Ye Yaoyao's unusual behavior when she sat up from the coffin.

Upon seeing them again, the two women were still trembling with fear, clinging tightly to the people around them and huddled together. Even though they had brought several other people with them, they still felt cold.

"Master...Master..." Ye Wan called out to the Taoist priest, trembling.

Ye Yaoyao is really terrifying, we should take her away quickly.

The Taoist priest took the bottle from his disciple, tossed the peach wood sword to him, then picked up a willow branch, dipped it in water, and chanted incantations.

They jumped around Ye Yaoyao again, constantly sprinkling water droplets all over her.

"I'll go to you!"

This action angered Ye Yaoyao, who hated it most when people sprayed water on her face, so she raised her foot and kicked the Taoist priest without hesitation.

The Taoist priest was hopping on one leg when he lost his balance and fell backward, landing right on Old Madam Ye.

"what……"

"Ouch! Ouch!"

The group of people were already huddled together, and when one of them fell, everyone else fell too. The person standing at the back was pushed outside the threshold and fell the hardest. A group of people lay on the ground, and the scene was chaotic.

“Puff! Puff!”

The triplets, seeing the crowd collapsed, couldn't hold back their laughter and burst out laughing.

"Puch..."

The sound came from beside a pine tree outside.

"Master, that girl is quite interesting," a man carrying a sword said with a smile to the masked man.

They had just climbed over the wall next door when they heard the bell. They instinctively stopped and looked over, only to find such an interesting scene.

The man addressed as "master" did not respond, but the corners of his mouth turned up slightly, clearly finding the scene quite amusing.

"Everyone says the Ye family is simple, with no concubines or illegitimate children, and the family is very peaceful. It's really unexpected that there would be a battle between the grandfather and grandson."

The man holding the sword continued to sigh.

What they saw was clearly the grandmother, who had brought in a Taoist priest to ward off bad luck for her granddaughter. Although they didn't know what had happened, the man believed that the grandmother didn't love her granddaughter and had brought a group of people to cause trouble.

"These officials' families live too leisurely lives and are constantly causing trouble."

Lian Jin sighed, then asked, "Master, should we help Miss Ye?"

"Are you bored?" The man rubbed two fingers together with his right hand and asked coldly.

"No, not at all." Lian Jin touched his nose, realizing he had spoken out of turn.

"Go back!" The man turned and left decisively.

Before leaving, he glanced at the sulking Ye Yaoyao one last time, feeling that she looked somewhat familiar.

"Yes, ma'am!" The two quickly left the Ye residence.

The people who were knocked to the ground were groaning in pain. Some clutched their stomachs, some covered their chests with both hands, and others hugged their arms and legs, their cries of pain piercing the air.

The maids and servants around were stunned by this scene. After the Fourth Miss came out of the coffin, she became so powerful that even the Taoist priest was helpless in front of her.

After a long while, they finally recovered from their shock and hurriedly helped Madam Ye up, asking her with concern:

"Old lady, are you okay?"

"Ouch, ouch! My back! What am I going to do!"

Madam Ye clutched her waist tightly with both hands, her face pale with pain, and she couldn't help but groan.

"Madam, let this old servant give you a massage."

Looking at their miserable state, Ye Yaoyao shook her head a few times, a smug smile appearing on her face, before saying innocently:

"Grandmother, I'm so sorry. It was this Taoist priest who splashed water on me, and my leg kicked him out of control. Are you alright?"

Hearing her say that her feet were out of control, Old Madam Ye's eyes widened in horror as she looked at Ye Yaoyao, her voice trembling as she spoke.

"Don't come here!"

Her face showed not only fear and pain but also disgust. Sure enough, Liu's children were all jinxes.

Old Madam Ye was terrified. Ever since she fell ill from the fright she had suffered, she had been filled with lingering fear. And now she had twisted her back again.

The elders are right. Ye Yaoyao is an unlucky person and will affect the Ye family's fortune in the future.

Everyone else was also helped up, and the maids and servants moved chairs to the door for Old Madam Ye to sit on.

The Taoist priest said that under the clear blue sky, Ye Yaoyao's malevolent aura wasn't that strong.

Seeing that she felt relieved, Liu Yunshu stepped forward and asked:

"Mother, why did you summon the Taoist priest?"

"Mrs. Liu, what a fine daughter you raised."

When Madam Ye looked at Liu Yunshu, she subconsciously adopted the demeanor of a mother-in-law.

Liu Yunshu feigned confusion and asked, "What do you mean by that, Mother? I don't quite understand."

Old Madam Ye leaned back on the soft cushion, feeling more comfortable in her lower back, and gave a cold snort:

"You still have the nerve to ask me? Look at what your daughter has done!"

"Are you talking about Yaoyao kicking the Taoist priest just now?" Liu Yunshu smiled. "That Taoist priest suddenly sprayed water at Yaoyao, and she kicked him out of instinct. I think anyone would have reacted similarly in that situation!"

"How could that be? Ye Yaoyao made a whole bunch of us fall down, she's a monster."

The one speaking was Ye Wan's daughter, Yun Piaopiao. She and Ye Yuanru were standing at the very back. They had both fallen off the threshold and were still in a lot of pain.

“Piaopiao is right.”

She was still in pain, and her maid was massaging her as she sat in a chair. Ye Wan's cold was relatively mild, and she could still hear clearly as she spoke.

"Master, quickly subdue this monster!"

"So that's what you were planning! Let's see who dares to do it!"

Liu Yunshu exuded the aura of a noble lady, her eyes sweeping coldly over the group.

"Sister-in-law, Yaoyao came out of the coffin and made us catch a cold. Now she has kicked all of us down."

Aside from martial arts practitioners, how many people could do that? What else could she be but a prodigy?

"What does it have to do with my daughter if you guys are scared out of your wits and lie on the ground unconscious all night?"

The steward doesn't take Jingyang's words seriously; you should hold the steward accountable for Feng Han's illness.

[Mom, you're so beautiful! Sending you a heart!]

When the housekeeper was mentioned, Old Madam Ye looked at Liu Yunshu with eyes as sharp as a venomous snake, filled with resentment.

"Liu, you have a vicious heart. The steward is a distant relative of mine. He is loyal and hardworking to the Ye family. You injured his face with boiling water and then gave him fifty lashes."

Do you even care about me, your mother-in-law? How could the Ye family produce such a vicious woman like you?

Old Madam Ye's words were quite serious. Ye Li'an's eyes turned cold, and his hands clenched into fists.

“Grandmother, the steward is a servant of the Ye family. He left his master lying on the ground all night and did nothing. Mother, what's wrong with punishing a disobedient servant?”

Ye Jingyang's face was full of disdain, and his tone was full of sarcasm.

"That's right, that's right. All those stewards in the manor have dirty hands, so how clean can Steward Wang be?"

Seeing the two of them calling each other "servants" and one of them having dirty hands, Old Madam Ye angrily pointed at her two grandsons and scolded them, her voice becoming shrill.

“You two wolf cubs, the butler didn’t even see you that night, yet you’re slandering him.”

Xue Ruoxue frowned and glanced at Old Madam Ye. They had come today to exorcise evil spirits, but the old woman had forgotten all about her business when it came to her lover.

Ye Yaoyao rubbed her ears, looking concerned.

"Grandmother, your cold hasn't gotten better yet, don't get so agitated. Even the eunuch's voice sounds better than yours."

"You'd better speak less, or your throat will become like this. Granny, quickly give Grandma some water to soothe her throat."

"You...you monster." He actually cursed her.
