Jiaying mumbled something. Although I was anxious, I didn't dare to wake her up easily. Now I understood that she wasn't sleepwalking. She was clearly possessed.
I was anxious. The puppet's eyes suddenly opened. She looked straight at me. I watched Jiaying walk towards her. Forget it, I don't have the mood to think so much.
He immediately grabbed her hand, closed his eyes, gritted his teeth, and threw the doll out.
Jiaying suddenly trembled. When I turned my head to look at her, beads of sweat kept dripping from her forehead. She looked extremely weak.
His eyes were a little empty as he looked at me like he was resentful.
"Jiaying, Jiaying." I shook her shoulders and called her a few times, but she didn't respond.
Jia Jiaying looked at me. She reached out her hand to me, but I felt her knuckles were cold. Before I could say anything, she fell to the ground.
The next day, I applied for leave for Jiaying. She was lying on the bed like a corpse, motionless.
Wang Yaxuan and Chen Yalin asked me several times, but I tried my best to avoid them. I've already informed Master Ye, but he's still out of town and might not be back for a while.
I helped Jiaying up from the bed." Jiaying, come and eat something. You can't continue like this."”
Jiaying leaned against the headboard and looked at me. I helped her tidy her hair and put the food by her mouth.
"Xiao Bai, I feel so tired. I don't have any strength at all. What happened?”
I forced a smile and said," Maybe it's because the weather has changed a lot recently and I'm sick.”
Jiaying flipped the clothes on the bed and turned to ask me," Little Bai, have you seen my doll?”
Doll? Was Jiaying talking about the puppet?
I played dumb and said," What doll? I haven't seen it before."
"I left it here yesterday. Why is it gone?”
Jia Ying was inexplicably angry. She raised her head and looked at me with a pair of angry eyes, as if she wanted to tear me apart.
I was a little afraid. It was normal for her to be like this now.
"Jiaying, don't worry. I'll help you find it later.”
Jiaying looked at me and reached out her hand. I don't know where she got the strength to knock the plate in my hand to the ground. She growled," Give me the doll. Take out my doll!"”
I thought that the only thing I could do now was to calm her emotions. Otherwise, what would I do if something happened?
"Jiaying, don't be angry." I held her hand and tried to control her.
"I'll go find it for you. I'll go right away.”
Jiaying's emotions slowly calmed down. She lowered her head and said in a strange voice, as if someone was strangling her neck," Then hurry up and look for her."”
I hurried out of the door. I don't think I have any other way except for Ji Qianfan.
However, she couldn't find Ji Qianfan even after looking around the school.
Just as I was about to take out my phone, I wanted to slap myself. Ji Qianfan is a ghost that has never changed. How could he have a phone?
That's right! Bell!
With this thought in mind, I went to an abandoned classroom. After making sure that there was no one outside, I took out the bell.
I looked at the bell." How do I use this? Ji Qianfan didn't teach me either."
Forget it, I'll try my best. I imitated Master Ye's previous method of summoning souls. I walked in a small circle and rang the bell while chanting," Ji Qianfan, come quickly when you hear my voice... Ji Qianfan..."
I didn't know how much time had passed, but my head was dizzy and I almost fell to the ground. Ji Qianfan hugged me.
My eyes were dizzy, but after seeing him clearly, I couldn't control my temper." Why didn't you tell me when you arrived? Do you know that this is very tiring?”
Ji Qianfan smiled and said," You look funny. I'm just entertaining you."”
"Can you blame me for this? But you didn't teach me how to use it back then.”
Ji Qianfan pulled me and said," Okay, it's my fault. Don't be angry."”
As we were talking, we heard movement outside. Ji Qianfan hugged me and hid behind the door. Before I could recover, I felt a sense of security in his embrace.
After a long time, Ji Qianfan said impatiently," Madam, have you hugged enough? I'm already tired of standing."
I felt a little embarrassed and immediately pushed Ji Qianfan away. "Who wants to hug you? Really."
I turned around and didn't look at Ji Qianfan, but I was already cursing myself to death in my heart.
Please, Jiang Xiaobai, you have to calm down. You are a lady, you can't expose your true nature."
Ji Qianfan leaned over and whispered into my ear," If Madam misses me, I'll serve you well tonight."”
I turned around and slapped Ji Qianfan's shoulder. Don't ask me why I didn't slap his face.
"I'm telling you, if you continue to be like this, I'll…I'll…"
"How is it?" I looked at Ji Qianfan's fearless face and was speechless.
"Who wants to play with you? I have something important to tell you.”
I told Ji Qianfan about Jiaying. When Ji Qianfan heard it, his expression was serious and he didn't say a word.
"Say something. Is there any way?”
Ji Qianfan shook his head and said," I'm not Master Ye. How would I know?"”
I still had some doubts in my heart. I questioned him again," You really don't know? Since you know the origin of that doll, why don't you have a way to crack it?"”
"Who told you that I know?"
I said righteously," Master Ye, he said that there's nothing you don't know about ghosts.”
Ji Qianfan sighed, pulled me and said," It's not convenient for us to talk here. Let's go somewhere else."”
Before I could respond to him, he pulled me away. When I opened my eyes, I was already home.
"Hey, you're a very domineering person. Have you asked for my opinion?”
Ji Qianfan smiled and sat down. He looked at me and asked," Do you still want to know?”
"Yes, I do. If I understand this, I might be able to find a breakthrough point.”
When Ji Qianfan heard my words, his tone was a little sour. He said," When will you think of me?"”
"Have you ever seen anyone think about a ghost all day?”
Ji Qianfan turned his head and ignored my words. He slowly told me the story of the puppet.
During the Qing Dynasty, there was a girl in Suzhou called Su He. Su He was a girl from a rich family. Her family was a famous person in the local area.
Su He's parents had died in her early years. Although she had left behind such a large family business, it was rare for a woman like her to manage it. She simply passed it all to her uncle, hoping that she would not have to worry about food and clothing in the future.
Outsiders called her Su Sanniang. (She had two older brothers who died in battle.）
There was a small house opposite the big house. A boy lived there. His mother called him a scholar. He and Su Sanniang had known each other since childhood.
He vaguely remembered that when he was young, it would rain intermittently during the green plum season.
The scholar was using a banana leaf to catch the water droplets dripping from the eaves outside. The water droplets splashed high and directly jumped onto his face.
Su Sanniang only found it very interesting. She was a few years older than the scholar, but her family treasured her and never allowed her to play these games.
She opened the back door, and through the tiny gap in the door, she could see the scholar's house.
The scholar also noticed it. He was a little shy and quickly threw down the things in his hand and ran into the house. Su Sanniang was about to call him, but he ran too fast.
"Third Aunt, Third Aunt."
When she heard the nanny calling her again, she could only hurriedly close the door and return to the house.
That day, the scholar had returned from school. Today, he had learned a poem. He kept repeating it over and over again. When his mother asked him what he was mumbling about, he blurted out," Red Bean."”
His mother smiled and patted his head." What a coincidence. The old lady next door gave me some red beans today. If you like them, I'll make them for you later…"
When he was young, he didn't know anything. He only thought that this poem sounded good. When his mother wasn't paying attention, he stole a red bean and gave it to Su Sanniang.
Su Sanniang took it and asked," What is this?”
He sat on the steps with a surprised look on his face." You don't know?”
Sanniang placed the red bean in her palm and looked at it carefully under the sunlight." It's really beautiful."”
The scholar said," It's not for looking at. It's for eating.”
"Eat?"
"When my mother makes it for me, I'll give you some.”
Before Sanniang could answer, she heard a noise in the room, so she said to the scholar," You can come back to play some other day. I have to go back."”
"Alright."
As the days passed, the two of them gradually grew up. Although they liked each other, neither of them spoke.
It was said that Su Sanniang was married to a spice merchant, and he was Japanese.
The scholar knew. From that day on, he locked himself in his house. He didn't go out. He didn't want to hear the crazy words of the people outside.
It was the green plum season again. Su Sanniang held an umbrella and came to the fence. She said," Red beans grow in the southern country. When spring comes, a few branches will bloom. I hope you can pick more. This is the most lovesick thing."”
The scholar hid in the room and peeked through the crack of the door. In the rain, Su Sanniang was getting thinner and thinner. Her thin appearance was so weak that it made his heart ache…
