Chapter 1661: Chapter 1661: Exposed Before Song Ci

Out of all the rumors, no one dared to tell Song Ci. The ancients always had awe for spirits and ghosts, if Song Ci knew about it, with her current health and spirit, who knows what consequences that might bring.

After Nanny Gong heard the news, she immediately instructed Chun Fen to keep the mouths of the servants in Chunhui Hall shut, then informed Madam Song, making it clear that no one in the household was allowed to reveal a single word to Song Ci.

For now, Song Ci was kept in the dark.

But such vicious rumors would upset anyone, and when taking the content of the rumors into account, along with a subconscious comparison, even if nothing else is said, the few daughters-in-law felt uneasy inside.

To be honest, setting aside all this nonsense about being possessed, the old lady’s temperament has indeed changed significantly compared to before.

But quickly, they attributed her changes to the serious illness from years ago. Back then, didn’t Doctor Lu say that surviving such a grave illness, almost at the brink of death, would not only cause memory lapses but could result in personality changes?

After all, it’s an experience of life and death adversity.

Thus, the women all tried their best to act as if nothing had happened, but since they were not professionally trained, their facial expressions were poorly managed, appearing even more like they were trying to cover something up, arousing Song Ci’s suspicion.

It wasn’t only the daughters-in-law, even the servants around her had strange expressions on their faces.

It was much like the situation where someone had a terminal illness and was dying, but everyone was afraid to let the person know, trying to keep it a secret.

These people were hiding something from her.

No one expected that the one who would bring this mess directly in front of Song Ci would be Master Song.

Nanny Gong had just instructed the maid to chill the sweet melon with well water and was about to head to the main house when Master Song entered the main house with a solemn expression.

She was momentarily stunned, immediately getting alert, and hurriedly headed to the main house while calling out to Master Song.

Master Song acted as though he didn’t hear, standing directly in front of Song Ci, who was seated on the Arhat bed, his eyes wide open like searchlights, scrutinizing her up and down.

Song Ci: "What are you doing?"

Due to the disaster, there were constant influxes of refugees into Shangjing, and some estates had been intruded by vagrants. For safety, Master Song had been brought back to the manor.

Nanny Gong came in, intending to interrupt Master Song’s response, but he had already begun to speak.

"Are you really the old lady? Are you really Song Ci?"

Song Ci’s heart skipped a beat, she looked at Nanny Gong, whose face turned pale. Narrowing her eyes slightly, she replied calmly, "Oh, our master can’t recognize his own wife, has your eyesight been dazzled by some young lady outside? Should I report your great achievements of these years to your parents below?"

Upon hearing this, Master Song let out a breath: "Listen to that tone, that thorny attitude, who else could it be but that sharp-tongued old lady? Damn it, let me find whoever spread the rumor that you’re possessed by a wild ghost, I’ll beat him to death."

Song Ci listened, her heart racing, yet she maintained a stern face and replied irritably, "If you’re sure, then get the hell out, don’t disturb my meditation."

Master Song snorted coldly, "As if anyone would want to stay in your room."

He flicked his sleeves, not even sparing her a glance as he left.

In with haste, out with haste.

Seeing him leave, Song Ci then turned to Nanny Gong and said, "I told you, none of you could hide your secrets, what’s going on, what did he mean by what he said?"
