Our Mommy is the Best Investigator!

  Chapter 148 Spirit Card

  Chu Nanzhi also noticed that among these clansmen were the Qi family's henchmen, even if Qi Mochen deliberately called them to make trouble, she had to be on guard.

  She walked up to Wei Ziqing and whispered to him, "Brother Wei, can I trouble you to do something for me?"

Before he could answer, Lin Jinxiao listened to what he had said, and said jealously to her, "Brother Wei helped copy the scriptures for an entire afternoon, why do you bother him any more? Let's do it."

  Chu Nanzhi originally just wanted Wei Ziqing to help carve a spiritual tablet. Since this guy still likes to be jealous so much, he had no choice but to satisfy his reasonable request.

   And I have to find more things for him to do, I'm afraid he will be happy.

   "My husband's lesson is that the servants are not thinking carefully."

   Quietly staring at Lin Jinxiao who was sullen, Chu Nanzhi suddenly realized that it would be more appropriate for him to do this.

  This guy has always been someone who likes to hide things in his heart, and it happens that the less people know about this matter, the more secret it will be.

  She asked Lin Jinxiao to wait upstairs with the quadruplets, while she went to the kitchen to get a chopped onion and put it in a stone mortar for pounding garlic, first took it to Lin Jinxiao, and asked him to mash the onion into a puree.

  Afterwards, he fetched some wine and bamboo vinegar, and secretly took a wordless spiritual card that was not used the day before yesterday.

  As soon as they arrived at the door of the wing room, they heard the quadruplets yawning again and again. When they walked in, Lin Jinxiao was choked to the point of tears.

   "Are you stupid?"

Chu Nanzhi covered her mouth and nose with a tight veil to block out the pungent smell, walked over and handed the spirit tablet to him, and ordered angrily, "Carve a new one for me that is exactly the same as the one downstairs. Live on my own."

  Lin Jinxiao coughed several times, wiped the choked tears from the corners of his eyes, and obediently walked aside with the spirit card.

  The little ones followed her example and covered their noses with their hands, which made them feel much more comfortable. They all asked curiously, "Mother, why do you still want to make a spiritual tablet?"

   "Hush."

  Chu Nanzhi hissed at the little ones, and said in a low voice: "Don't tell any of you about this matter, not even grandma and master."

  The quadruplets saw that A Niang was mysterious. Although they didn't know what she was going to do, they thought that A Niang must be doing something big, so they nodded obediently.

  Chu Nanzhi continued pounding onions, and at the same time told the little treasures: "Can you take Brother Muci downstairs to watch for Grandpa? By the way, watch for A Niang, and no one is allowed to come up to peek."

"it is good."

  The quadruplets looked at each other, took Xiao Muci and whispered together and went downstairs slowly.

   After waiting for the onion to be mashed, she poured the wine into the stone mortar, mixed together and continued to mash the onion, so that the wine was completely immersed in the onion puree.

  Seeing the thickening gradually turning blue in the stone mortar, she poured bamboo vinegar into it, and then the thickening in the stone mortar turned into a dark red color.

   After tossing and tossing for more than half an hour, Lin Jinxiao also carved out the spirit tablet after finishing all this.

Chu Nanzhi took the spirit card, went to the desk and filled the thick liquid he made into the characters he carved bit by bit, and finally dripped the hot wax oil onto the surface of the characters with a burning candle, spread it evenly, and used a thin A layer of wax oil completely covered the thick layer.

  Lin Jinxiao saw that she was busy all afternoon and made such a move, and he didn't know what she wanted to do, so he asked a little worried, "Why are you making so many spiritual positions?"

  Chu Nanzhi pursed her lips, and said with a smile, "You will know when the time comes."

  She couldn't explain this chemical knowledge clearly to him.

I was afraid that he would continue to speculate wildly, so I had to remind him a little: "The Qi family has been gossiping outside for a few days, since their mother and son want to come over to do some filial piety for their uncle, I will also let the villagers take a good look at the big brother of the Qi family. What a filial son looks like."

  Lin Jinxiao saw that she refused to talk to him in detail, so he didn't ask any more. Anyway, she had her own way, and she always came up with some novel things unexpectedly, which he had never seen before.

  Since it was to deal with the Qi family's mother and son, all he could do was to keep this secret.

   After finishing all this, Chu Nanzhi hid the spirit tablet and helped Lin Jinxiao go downstairs.

  It was already night at this time, and many clansmen and neighbors had already returned one after another, and most of the ones left were those who were worried that the Qi family would come and cause trouble and sincerely turned to the Chu family.

Chu Nanzhi guessed that the Qi family must be planning to come over to pick trouble at tomorrow's funeral banquet. With so many people guarding the mourning hall, she couldn't change the spirit position she remade, so she kindly said to everyone: "Everyone Uncle, Uncle, I won’t bother you to watch the night here tonight, you should go back to rest earlier, the funeral will be held tomorrow, I’m afraid there will be a lot of things for everyone to do tomorrow.”

"Can"

  Liu Chengming's eldest son, Liu Xu, is now determined to follow his father to his aunt's house, and he is a little worried when he hears Chu Nanzhi's words.

   Before he could finish speaking, Chu Nanzhi immediately replied: "Cousin, don't worry, and everyone can don't worry, it's so late, the Qi family won't come again."

  She persuaded her earnestly, and then the relatives dispersed in peace.

After settling down with Elder Nie, Elder Chang, and the elders of the Lin family, she coaxed the five little treasures back upstairs to sleep. In the dead of night, she dismissed the elders of the Liu and Chu families who were watching the night to accompany the Taoist priests who were doing things. Use some supper in the courtyard.

   When only Lin Jinxiao was left in front of the spirit, she secretly replaced the spirit card hidden upstairs.

  I thought it was someone who didn't know it, but just as she was about to go upstairs with the original spirit card, Lin Jinxiao suddenly coughed lightly at herself.

  Chu Nanzhi turned his head, only to see that beside him was a Tanshan priest.

  The two looked at each other and smiled indifferently. Priest Tanshan pretended not to see anything, and went to burn incense before the coffin on his own.

Chu Nanzhi looked at his expression and guessed that the Taoist must have noticed that he had changed his spiritual position, thinking that he could not stay in front of the spirit all the time, so he simply tried to tell him directly: "I have to trouble the Taoist priest to keep an eye on it for me." Be careful, don't let the candlelight get close to the spirit position."

   "The female benefactor is relieved."

   Priest Tanshan deliberately pushed the spiritual seat inward, further away from the incense, and his small movements had already expressed his intentions to her.

  Chu Nanzhi understood, took the replaced spirit card and hid it in the wing room, covering it with a piece of red cloth.

   After that, go back downstairs and quietly wait for the arrival of the Qi family.

The next day, mourning guests came in an endless stream. Liu Chengming distributed the newly made filial piety clothes to the juniors of the Liu and Chu families, and each dressed in the filial piety clothes and went to the mourning hall to welcome the guests. Condolences.

Many guests did not have much contact with the Chu family on weekdays, and came here with ulterior motives. First, they wrote accounts at the account, but learned from Wei Ziqing that the Chu family did not pay silk money this time, but only accepted sacrifices. With the bulging purse already prepared, he went to the mourning hall to express his condolences, and left in a hurry without waiting for the funeral banquet.

  In the evening, the funeral banquet began, and the voices of the relatives crying in the mourning hall also sounded hysterically.

  Chu Nanzhi led the quadruplets to guard the left side of the mourning hall, and was quietly gazing at the unmoving spiritual tablet when he suddenly heard noises outside the yard.

Lin Jinxiao was about to go out on crutches, but Chu Nanzhi immediately stopped him, and whispered: "I can handle today's affairs, take care of Mu Ci and the four little treasures, and don't force yourself on other things Get ahead."

  Lin Jinxiao stared at her determined eyes, and thought that there were two mentors outside, so he sat down slowly and reassuredly. He also looked forward to what kind of good show this woman would bring today.

  He silently held down the ready-to-move quadruplets, and made the little ones kneel beside him again. His dark eyes rolled lightly, watching her slowly step out of the mourning hall.
