It has to be said that the cook ladies are really good at spreading rumors, and the news reached Mu s.h.i.+’s ears early the next morning.

“What? A ghost shaved her head!” Mu s.h.i.+ almost overturned the medicine bowl in Shuangrui’s hand. “Who did you say was shaved by a ghost?”

Mother Cui said hurriedly: “The servant girl also heard from the daughter-in-law who delivered the meal this morning. Now everyone in our house knows. The second lady went to Pinlan Park yesterday and she was bald when she came back. Everyone said she was shaved by a ghost!”

“Pin Lan Park?” When Mu s.h.i.+ heard the name, an inexplicable panic flashed across her eyes, “It’s perfectly fine, what was she doing there?”

Mama Cui replied: “This servant girl doesn’t know. I heard that the Second Sister hid in the room and refused to come out as soon as she went back yesterday.

Yes, a young girl in the prime of her youth turned into a bald-headed nun in a blink of an eye. Who would want to go out? Isn’t this so embarra.s.sing?

Mu s.h.i.+ irritably said: “These girls really don’t stop! One is more worrying than the other!”

Just using a thousand taels of silver to appease the female devil Yu Linglong, Yu Qianfang was in trouble again. Of course, Mu s.h.i.+ didn’t feel sorry for Yu Qianfang’s loss of hair. She just felt that something happened with Yu Qianfang during this eventful autumn. She was even more annoyed.

Yu Linglong’s temperament changed drastically, and Yu Qianfang suffered being shaved by a ghost. Mu s.h.i.+ became more and more convinced that something was wrong in the Yu family’s mansion.

“I asked you to find a G.o.ddess, did you find one yet?”

Mama Qian said: “The servant has already hired the sorceress Bai, but sorceress Bai said that she has been very busy recently and won’t be able to come for a few days.”

Mu s.h.i.+’s brows furrowed, but she didn’t want to wait any longer than a day. In just a few days, so many messes had happened. If she waited a few more days, maybe something big will happen.

“Did you not say that General Yu’s household wanted to invite her?”

Mama Qian smiled and said: “I did, but… but Miss Bai said, there are so many high-ranking officials and n.o.bles she works for, and she can only see them one by one in order since she doesn’t want to offend any of them!

Mu s.h.i.+ snorted, “What offense? Does she want more money? Go ahead, as long as we can get rid of the evil spirits in our house, I will give her one hundred taels of silver!”

One hundred taels of silver is not a small amount. They won’t s.h.i.+rk any measure for sorceress Bai.

Seeing Mu s.h.i.+’s anger, Mama Qian could only agree to it.

While discussing it, they suddenly heard a series of voices coming from outside: “Good news ma’am, good news ma’am!”

Mu s.h.i.+ rubbed her forehead, raised her eyes, and looked out. She really couldn’t think of what other happy events she could handle at this time of internal and external troubles.

She saw a few maids walk in quickly following the second daughter-in-law. Everyone was beaming. The daughter-in-law bowed and said with a smile: “Madam, we just heard the news, the master is coming back!”

“What?” Mu s.h.i.+’s eyes widened suddenly, and she sat up quickly, forgetting the pain in her body, “Isn’t he not supposed to return until the end of the year? Why is he coming back half a year earlier?”
