As the winter solstice approaches, every household is making arrangements for the worship of their ancestors. Originally, the Ji Mansion was in control of all these matters, but now that no one had entered the family tree, they were not allowed to touch the offerings, especially for my wife, who was not allowed to participate in the ancestral worship ceremony.

So after thinking for a long time, Pingbei could only entrust the matter of offering sacrifices to the Second Branch Zhou's to arrange. Zhou's was born in a clear family, and was extremely concerned about the ancestral worship, so he had done it in an extremely appropriate manner.

And when Old Liu heard that something that she should have been controlling was taken away by a daughter-in-law that she didn't like, she immediately hated him so much that her teeth itched. That day, who knew how many cups of porcelain that West Garden had been smashed.

"Damned Gauguin, this little b * stard actually dares to meddle in the matter of offering sacrifices to the ancestors!" Old Liu clenched her teeth and complained to her niece. Xiao Liu also answered as she pleased, adding to her anger, making him hate Gauguin even more.

"She should be sick even if she gave birth to a daughter. Looking at her sickly appearance, I'm afraid she won't live past this winter!" When Gauguin entered, he heard Old Liu cursing. He could only fawn over her and pass her the tea leaves in his hands, "Mother, the tea leaves have just been brewed, you should drink it while it's still hot."

Old Liu saw that her eyebrows were lowered and her intent was perfect, she immediately became angry, and after she received the teacup, she drank a mouthful and shattered the teacup beside Gao QI, "You want to burn me to death?! You are also Ze'er's First Lady, this legitimate daughter-in-law of the Ji Mansion, why is it that her Gauguin can arrange matters regarding the ancestors, and you can't! "This is so infuriating!"

"Aunt, don't be angry. I presume that it was only a moment of carelessness that allowed Gauguin to take advantage of me."

As the first grandson and eldest daughter of the Ji Mansion, Ji Zhen and Ji Feng naturally had to kneel and worship in front of the juniors. Ji Zhen did not believe in gods and buddhas in her previous life, but she had to believe in the fact that she was being reborn. Ji Zhen took Ji Feng and bowed respectfully, then stood to the side and waved at Dong Mei.

The night after the ancestral worship, the entire family would gather together to eat. It was unknown if it was because there were too many ancestral worshippers, or what it was like, but the air was always filled with a strong fragrance, but it was not pungent at all.

Wu's didn't know why, but from the moment they started eating, he felt uncomfortable and always felt uneasy. Ji Zhen brought Ji Feng to take a look at Aunt Lin. There had been too many things happening in the house in the past few days, so in order to prevent any disasters from affecting Aunt Lin, Ji Zhen had specially instructed Cui Er to inform Aunt Lin to stay in her own courtyard and not go out.

"Greetings, Aunt." Ji Feng bowed respectfully, then laughed as Aunt Lin quickly helped him up. He patted his head and said, "fenger has also grown up, I do not owe you one!"

While talking, Aunt Lin's eyes were filled with tears, Ji Feng anxiously reached out and wiped the tears from Aunt Lin's eyes. Aunt, don't cry. I said it before, in the future fenger will be filial to Aunt! "

Seeing how confident Ji Feng was, Aunt Lin turned around and looked at Ji Zhen who was smiling, and her heart immediately calmed down.

"fenger brought Aunt Lin to the courtyard to have a look at the plum blossoms. I believe that plum blossoms have blossomed, so fenger can pick a few. Tomorrow, we will go pay our respects to mother." With that said, Ji Feng anxiously dragged Aunt Lin into the courtyard.

In Ji Feng's entire life, he had never been able to go to his mother's grave to pay his respects. In the past few years, he was still young, so he couldn't see the wind and snow. In fact, Ji Zhen knew that they were just blurring fenger's thoughts.

"Miss, everything is ready." Dong Mei quietly walked to Ji Zhen's side and said.

"That's good, remember to look favorably for Young Master Feng and Aunt Lin." Ji Zhen's eyes flashed, following that, her mouth raised in a charming smile, some things were better to be dealt with quickly, after finishing, the earlier the better.

Slowly, the fragrance in the air grew stronger, but no one noticed it. Only Ji Zhong's concubine, Wu's, was holding onto his chest, trying his best to restrain herself.

Just then, a strange fragrance floated in the air, and everyone looked at the small censer in Ji Zhen's hands, only to hear a scream from Wu's, and then lying on the ground, a blood arrow shot out from Wu's's chest straight at Ji Zhen.

Ji Zhen suddenly put down the censer in her hand, and the blood arrow changed direction and went into the censer through the vent. Wu's had already died, the entire room was filled with the smell of blood and the strange aroma, it was actually extremely alluring.

Only Ji Quan looked at Wu's's corpse with a cold face and roared loudly. Everyone finally realized what was going on, and Gauguin, who was originally sitting beside Wu's, became speechless when they saw Wu's's corpse. When she turned around to look at Ji Zhen, he felt that Ji Zhen was like a dead Lin's disease.

Everyone saw Gauguin jumping up like a cat with its hair standing on end, pointing at Ji Zhen, she shouted out, "It's not me who harmed you, it's Granny, Granny told me to do it, wu wu wu wu!" Then, she was sent by the Old Liu to cover her mouth, but Ji Zhen heard something from her words.

Could it be that the death of his mother was related to the Old Liu and three rooms? The more Ji Zhen thought about it, the more his fists clenched tighter, and he felt like he was getting closer to the truth.

When Ji Quan finally controlled the situation, Ji Zhen opened the incense burner and found a palm-sized blood-colored centipede inside. The centipede was shaking its head malevolently in the incense burner.

"Zhen Er, did you escape from the Wu's's body?" Ji Quan pointed at the centipede, feeling shocked in his heart, but he was also afraid that the Wu's was a barbarian. After all, the art of the Voodoo Gu was only prevalent in the barbarian territory.

"That's right, this is the son of the mother Gu. The one in Father's body and the one in the Liu clan's body are a pair of parasites. That day, when Mrs Liu had sunken into the pond, in order to prevent the mother Gu from having a backlash, the Wu's had severed the link between the sub parasite and the mother Gu, which was why the poison in her father's body was unable to suppress the backlash. Today, Zhen Er specially used the Soul Guiding Incense to look for the person who controlled the parasite. "

Ji Zhen covered the censer and gave it to Dong Mei. On the other hand, Ji Quan had indeed sent people to thoroughly investigate the family of Wu's.

However, Ji Zhen was not concerned with any of this. She only wanted to find Aunt Liu and her father and ask them the reason behind her mother's death that year.

After all, everyone in the Ji Mansion had announced to the outside world that the Lin's disease had passed away. The people Lin Family had sent to visit him back then had all been stopped by him using an excuse. But now, it seemed like there was something fishy about his mother's death!
