When she opened her eyes, the scenery in front of her had already changed. She landed by a river with beautiful mountains and rivers. There were no tall buildings.
Gu Ci thought of Li Rui and Liu Mingming and smiled. It was not a big deal. Maybe it was good for everyone to leave for a while. She just used a dream time to finish her mission. When she came back, she might forget everything. If she wanted to forget someone, she would go to a place where they were not there for a while and slowly forget the things that were imprinted in her memory. This was good for everyone.
She lifted the corner of her skirt and walked towards the town. It was still early when she reached the town and she was about to find a place to stay when she heard someone whispering on the street. "Have you heard? The Chen family's residence is haunted. I heard that the Chen family's old master is looking for people to perform rituals everywhere?”
"Who did you hear that from?" someone asked.
"Who can hide these things from in the mansion?”the man said. "I heard that many people were invited but they still couldn't settle this matter. No, it's said that the seventh aunt who just entered the house was so scared that she fell ill.”
In Song Jia's dream, Gu Ci remembered that in Song Jia's previous life, Xiang Xue and Chen He were related. This time, she only came to resolve their fates and change their fate. This opportunity came without any effort. Song Jia went over and asked the group of women who were sitting together and chatting. "How do we get to the Chen family?"
The few of them looked at each other and asked. "What are you going to the Chen family for?"
Gu Ci said. "Ghost catching."
When the women saw Gu Ci, a pretty girl, go to catch ghosts, they laughed. "This is not something a girl should do. It's better to go home and embroider."
"My Gu family has been catching ghosts for generations. What's so strange about that?”Gu Ci took the woman's clothes and said. "Hurry up and tell me how to get there.”
The few of them saw that Gu Ci's originally gentle face suddenly seemed to be covered with a layer of ice. They pointed in a direction and said. "Just keep walking and see a big house.”
Gu Ci lifted the corner of her skirt and turned around. She crossed her arms in front of her chest and stood in front of the tall door of the Chen family. The two servants guarding the door greeted her respectfully and asked. "Miss, is there something you need?"
"I'm looking for your master." Gu Ci said. "By the way, tell him I'm here to exorcise evil spirits.”
The servant bowed and said. "Allow me to inform my master." After he finished speaking, he ran inside. Gu Ci waited at the door for a while and saw the people coming and going at the door. The streets were clean and tidy. People were wearing rough clothes that they had sewn themselves and carrying a pole to sell on the street. It was a very quiet and leisurely life. The 21st century was good, prosperous, and exciting, but after a long time of prosperity, one would still feel that the life in the past was very good.
The Chen family was one of the wealthiest families in Taoxi Town. The mansion was also magnificent. She stood at the door and looked inside. She felt bored and looked down at her shoes. However, a gentle voice came from behind her. She turned around and saw a young man who was as gentle as jade walking out of the door in a gray robe. He had his hands behind his back. Although he looked elegant, it was obvious that this person was meticulous and a sensible person. He asked Gu Ci with a friendly smile. "I heard from my servant that you are coming to the Chen family to exorcise evil spirits? Miss?"
"Don't underestimate the lady." Gu Ci smiled. "My family has been doing this for generations." She put down her hand. "Can you invite me in now? I'm a little tired after a long day of traveling.”
He waved his hand and invited Gu Ci in. He asked casually. "You don't sound like a local from your accent.”
Gu Ci followed behind and looked at the Chen family's house. After she entered, she was brought to the corridor on the left. The entire structure was simple. After the long corridor was a lotus pond and some resting places. The trees inside were luxuriant, tall and thick, and the sound of cicadas could not be heard. The room inside was also unique. Gu Ci followed them. When she passed the lotus pond, she heard the sound of fish jumping and splashing. She answered. "My home is very far away. I stopped here because I passed by because of some matters.”
She looked around. The entire courtyard was very clean and there were no traces of dirt. It was unknown if the person in front had heard him or not, but he kept walking forward quickly. He passed through an arched door and entered a house with Gu Ci. He went in and looked around." This is the East Court. The young ladies and young masters in the residence live here. The West Court is where my father and his concubines live. My father doesn't like to be disturbed, so if you want to go over, remember to get someone to inform him.”
Gu Ci nodded.
He clasped his hands behind his back and continued. "If you need anything, you can tell the servants. I'll call someone over to take care of you in a while.”He nodded. "If there's nothing else, I'll be leaving first. I live in the courtyard opposite your house.”
He left after saying that, but Gu Ci stopped him. "You have to tell me your name, right?”
"My name is Chen He, the eldest young master of the Chen family.”After saying that, he left. Gu Ci was left behind, muttering silently. She sat on the chair and watched the man leave with a smile. "So it's you. I didn't see it too clearly in Song Jia's dream. I didn't expect you to be that person.”
