The mistress has no feelings, why do you provoke her?
Chapter 20 A Life of Six Lifetimes of Solitude
Wealthy families would invite eminent monks to their baby's one-month celebration to offer blessings, so the guests were not surprised to see a bald monk.
Unexpectedly, the bald monk walked straight towards Jiang Miaoyin. Upon seeing her, he looked surprised and exclaimed, "No wonder, no wonder the eldest son of the Gu family suffered such a misfortune, so that's how it is..."
With that one sentence, everyone's attention fell on Jiang Miaoyin again.
Jiang Miaoyin's face turned pale with anger. What did that stinky monk mean?
Why is it that Gu Jia Dalang's death was caused by her?
She was already angry, and now that the monk had said that, she couldn't sit still any longer.
"Master, please explain yourself clearly. What does this mean?"
Jiang Miaoyin felt extremely wronged. It was bad enough that Gu Huaizhou had lied to her, but now she was also being branded as a jinx.
How is she supposed to live?
The monk sighed and shook his head repeatedly at her: "Your destiny star falls in the land of the husband star, destined to be alone and helpless throughout your life, with few to rely on, and a miserable old age. Anyone who comes near you will bring misfortune, ranging from the loss of your wife and children to the destruction of your family. This is all because you committed too many evil deeds in your past life, and are haunted by a hundred ghosts, born with a malevolent aura, destined to be lonely for six lifetimes. Amitabha..."
With each word the monk spoke, Jiang Miaoyin's face paled a little more, and the people around her looked at her with increasing fear.
One person summarized it this way: "My God, she not only brings bad luck to her husband and children, but also to those around her. She's destined to be lonely for six generations. We should stay away from her to avoid getting tainted by her bad luck."
In an instant, a large area centered around Jiang Miaoyin was cleared out.
The guests no longer looked at her with admiration, but with fear and disgust.
He was orphaned for six generations, haunted by a hundred ghosts, and born with a malevolent aura.
What a terrible sin this is!
Jiang Miaoyin looked at everyone in a panic, waving her hands repeatedly: "No, this isn't true, don't believe this monk's words."
Enraged, she pointed at the monk's nose and cursed, "Monks are supposed to be compassionate, yet you, a high monk, slander me for no reason. What are you up to... What high monk? You are clearly a demon monk."
Faced with her curses, the monk simply clasped his hands together and silently chanted Buddhist mantras: "Amitabha, Amitabha, please refrain from creating further negative karma through speech..."
Jiang Miaoyin was both angry and anxious. In her emotional state, she rolled her eyes and fainted.
Seeing that things were spiraling out of control, Gu Huaizhou wanted to step forward to help Jiang Miaoyin out of the predicament, but then he remembered something and held back.
If he were to forcefully step forward now, wouldn't that confirm the delicate relationship between him and Jiang Miaoyin?
Meanwhile, Song Wenjun had someone escort Jiang Miaoyin back to her courtyard.
Then, she humbly asked the bald monk, "Master, is there any way to solve this?"
"Unless she spends her whole life practicing vegetarianism and chanting Buddhist prayers to atone for her sins, it's good that the lady is kind-hearted, but being too kind is like aiding and abetting evil. Everything in this world is subject to cause and effect and reincarnation, so let her think about what's best for herself..." After the bald monk finished speaking, he leisurely left.
Song Wenjun sighed, as if she were caught in a dilemma.
None of the guests dared to say anything out of line, after all, this was a family matter for the Gu family.
Just as the atmosphere was somber, the doorman ran over to announce, "Madam, Master Song has arrived."
"Big brother." Song Wenjun's face lit up with joy, and she hurriedly went outside to greet him.
Gu Huaizhou hurriedly invited everyone to eat and drink, and the guests were very accommodating, restoring the lively atmosphere.
But this meal was filled with mixed emotions.
Everyone harbored a thorn in their hearts: the widow of the eldest branch of the Gu family was an ominous person.
Several luxurious carriages were parked outside the Marquis's mansion.
The carriage curtain was lifted, and a dashing man stepped out.
He was Song Wenjun's elder brother, Song Jinshu.
A business prodigy from a young age, the Song family business opened branches all over the country in just over a decade under his management.
Following closely behind Song Jinshu was his wife, Madam Min.
The Min family did not come from a noble background; they were also merchants.
She and Song Jinshu shared similar interests; she was skilled at calculating and was known as the "Golden Abacus" before she got married, as she was quite capable.
The majority of the branches in Beijing are managed by the Min family.
The two were dressed in ordinary clothes, but those with a discerning eye would know that their accessories were priceless.
You can buy a house or a shop by simply picking one of these items.
Even their maids and servants had their own carriages.
Everyone stared in disbelief at Song Jinshu's family. They only knew that Song Wenjun's family was in business, but they never expected them to be so wealthy.
The guests' reactions truly pleased Gu Huaizhou, and the gloom from before vanished.
The Song family was wealthy, which brought him pride.
When Song Wenjun saw her elder brother's family appear, she hurriedly went to greet them: "Elder brother, sister-in-law."
"Good, good..." Song Jinshu saw that Song Wenjun was fair and tender, and her complexion was also good, so she felt relieved.
Then, he hurriedly nudged the baby next to him: "Huaiyu, quickly call her auntie."
Song Yushu is his eldest son, who is only three years old this year.
The little one is fair-skinned, lively, and active, and doesn't show any fear in front of so many people.
She stepped forward confidently and called out, "Auntie."
The long-lost voice almost brought Song Wenjun to tears.
In her previous life, after she was murdered, her brother was poisoned by Gu Huaizhou while investigating the cause of her death.
The entire family of four was murdered.
In particular, Song Yushu was killed by Gu Huaizhou, who slit his throat.
He even cruelly killed his one-year-old sister by throwing her to her death.
With such deep-seated hatred, Song Wenjun wished she could tear him to pieces to vent her anger.
Seeing her family again filled her with both excitement and emotion.
Tears welled up in her eyes, and she hugged and kissed Song Yushu and Song Yuwan repeatedly, refusing to let go for a long time.
These are all her relatives.
Seeing her so agitated, Madam Min looked puzzled and asked, "What's wrong? Why are you crying on such a joyous day?"
Song Wenjun realized she had lost her composure and quickly wiped away her tears, trying to force a smile: "It's nothing, I was just so happy to see you all that I couldn't control myself. I missed you all so much."
Seeing that she was speaking incoherently, Song Jinshu breathed a sigh of relief and joked, "You suddenly started crying, which made me think that Huaizhou had bullied you."
It was meant as a joke, but it made Gu Huaizhou tense up. He hurriedly explained, "Brother, you've really wronged me. Wenjun is a great contributor to our family now. I cherish her too much to dare to bully her."
At this point, he gave Song Wenjun a resentful look, then said with feigned indulgence, "Now the entire Marquis's mansion is in her hands, and I even have to ask her for money."
Gu Huaizhou thought Song Jinshu would follow his lead, but to his surprise, Song Jinshu skillfully deflected the question and put the ball back in Gu Huaizhou's hands.
He leaned closer to Gu Huaizhou and said in a low voice, "We're really in the same boat. Your sister-in-law is keeping a close eye on me now."
Then, he made a helpless expression, spread his hands and said, "What can we do? They left us with a future, so we just have to put up with it."
Song Wenjun secretly gave her elder brother a thumbs up. As expected of a businessman, he was quick-witted.
If it were anyone else, they would have been led astray by Gu Huaizhou long ago.
They might ridicule me in front of all the guests.
Song Jinshu resolved a conflict with a few words and a smile, while also saving face for Song Wenjun.
Who wouldn't like a big brother like that?
