WFWC Chapter 2

The Whole Family Went Crazy After Reading My Mind Chapter 2: Golden Finger, Commonly Known As Goldfinger

 

Mrs. Ji widened her eyes in horror. The auditory hallucination appeared again. What was going on?

 

Maybe she wanted a daughter so much that she heard the little girl’s voice.

 

Mrs. Ji rubbed her temples tiredly, thinking that she should take some time to go to the Huguo Temple to pray to the Buddha to bless her with a daughter this time. She already had two sons, and she just hoped that this time she could get her wish and give birth to a well-behaved daughter.

 

As she was thinking about it, that voice suddenly sounded in her ears again.

 

[That’s right, Chunqin teamed up with Madam Zhou who was in charge of purchasing in the backyard to switch me on the day my mother gave birth. This person is definitely an evil slave.] Ji Huan looked angry.

 

After hearing this, Madam Ji couldn’t help but tremble. She heard the voice again, ringing clearly in her ears.

 

Who? Who is speaking?

 

At this time, Mrs. Ji saw Chunqin walk in respectfully.

 

“Madam, why are you calling your servant?”

 

At this moment, she was actually a little afraid of Chunqin. She was not sure whether the Chunqin in front of her was really harboring evil intentions as she had heard in her hallucinations.

 

“Go and take out a piece of jewelry from my dressing table and give it as a reward to Miss Chen who sang the song.” After all, she was the mistress of the Marquis’ Mansion, and she quickly calmed down.

 

“Yes Madam.” Chunqin glanced at Mrs. Ji’s belly inadvertently, responded and stepped back.

 

She walked past the screen and curled the corners of her lips coldly.

 

It seems that the baby is due in more than two months.

 

Mrs. Ji naturally did not notice the vicious corner of Chunqin’s mouth behind her.

 

When Xiuhe came over, Chunqin had already left with the jewelry. Xiuhe was her dowry maid and a trustworthy person.

 

Mrs. Ji motioned for Xiuhe to lean forward and whispered a few words in her ear.

 

“This old slave understands.” Xiuhe nodded, turned around, poured a glass of water for Mrs. Ji, and left.

 

After much thought, Mrs. Ji decided that it would be better to investigate. As the saying goes, there is no smoke without fire.

 

About an hour later, Lord Ji and the two young masters rushed back in a hurry.

 

Seeing Madam Ji sleeping peacefully on the couch, they finally felt relieved.

 

In the evening, Mrs. Ji woke up and asked about the affairs of the Lu Family.

 

After the eldest son Ji Yushu recounted the whole story, Mrs. Ji’s brows furrowed even deeper. From Ji Yushu’s words, she realized that Lu Yiyi really knew medicine. Her explanation at the time was that she occasionally read a few medical books in her spare time, and after a long time, she remembered some of them.

 

Did she really know medicine just by looking at it occasionally? She even saw that Shu’er’s leg was poisoned?

 

“Master, tomorrow I want to go to the Huguo Temple to fulfill my vow. I worshipped Guanyin, the Goddess of Childbirth, and soon after that I became pregnant. It’s time to fulfill my vow.”

 

The whole family stayed with Mrs. Ji in Wutong Courtyard, and they felt relieved only when they saw her wake up.

 

Lord Ji thought for a moment and said, “Okay, let Linfeng accompany the madam and bring a few more people with her. I have official duties to attend to, so I will not accompany the madam.” After sitting for a while, Lord Ji was in a hurry to leave.

 

Madam Ji also knew that Lord Ji was busy, so she didn’t say much.

 

Ji Yushu and Ji Linfeng chatted with their mother for a while.

 

Ji Hua looked very sad at the moment. If Chunqin really switched her on the day she was born, how could she, a newborn baby, save herself? Even if she had a golden finger, it would be useless. She couldn’t walk or speak. Only destruction awaited her.

 

Ahhh, I’m so anxious. How can she save herself?

 

Here, Xiuhe hadn’t found anything yet, but Madam Ji had packed up and went to Huguo Temple to fulfill her vow accompanied by the second son Ji Linfeng. The eldest son Ji Yushu, who was sitting in a wheelchair, sent Madam Ji and others to the door.

 

Two middle-level maids and four guards from the marquis’s mansion went with her. Mrs. Ji found an excuse for Chunqin to stay in the mansion.

 

“Mom, be careful.”

 

Two hours later, the carriage of the Ji family stopped in front of the temple. Ji Linfeng carefully helped Mrs. Ji get off the carriage. The Ji family was a noble family, so they were treated with courtesy by the monks of the Huguo Temple and had separate rooms.

 

Ji Linfeng thought that it would not be too late to help his mother rest in the side room first and then go to fulfill the vow, but his mother was very anxious and insisted on fulfilling the vow first: “Feng’er, mother is not tired, mother wants to fulfill the vow first. How about helping mother to find Master Cifeng later?”

 

“Why is mother looking for Master Cifeng?” Ji Linfeng was confused.

 

“Madam Ji frowned and said, “Don’t worry about it.” Ji Linfeng had no choice but to help Madam Ji walk to the main hall. After washing her hands, Madam Ji knelt on the mat and bowed to the sky, very pious. Then she reached into the fortune stick box and drew a bad fortune stick. She was shocked, her heart was pounding, her eyes were twitching violently, and she had too many questions that needed to be answered.

 

Master Cifeng was highly respected and gave people a sense of mystery. After hearing the auditory hallucination yesterday, the first person she thought of was Master Cifeng. She asked the two maids to wait outside, and she and Ji Linfeng went into the backyard to look for Master Cifeng. What Mrs. Ji never expected was that Master Cifeng seemed to have expected her to come.

 

He said, “Madam Marquis, I have been waiting for you here for a long time.”

 

Hearing this, Ji Linfeng looked confused.

 

Seeing his mother’s solemn face, Ji Linfeng felt even more confused. What did his mother want to ask? She had been acting strange since she woke up last night.

 

However, no matter how confused he was, he still obediently went outside to wait.

 

After waiting for about half an hour, he saw his mother coming out in a daze. Ji Linfeng walked forward worriedly: “Mother, what did Master Cifeng say?”

 

Mrs. Ji didn’t answer and just walked out. Ji Linfeng became very anxious.

 

The bumpy ride made Ji Hua dizzy and she was now fast asleep.

 

No matter how Ji Linfeng asked Mrs. Ji, she just wouldn’t say anything. Not long after getting on the carriage, she fainted, scaring Ji Linfeng half to death.

 

“Hurry, go back to the Marquis’ Mansion.” Ever since his mother asked about the Lu Mansion last night, he had noticed that his mother was acting strangely. Now, the feeling was even stronger.

 

When the group hurried back to the marquis’s mansion, it was already dark.

 

Fortunately, Mrs. Ji woke up halfway. When she woke up, there was deep worry between her brows. Ji Linfeng saw that she was in a bad mood, so he didn’t ask any more questions, but accompanied her silently.

 

Although he really wanted to ask the reason, he was more worried about his mother’s safety.

 

When she returned to the mansion, Xiuhe was already waiting at the door. Seeing that no one was around, she whispered to Madam Ji, “Madam, there is really something wrong with Chunqin. Doesn’t she have a brother? But recently, she has been seeing a man from another family frequently. She also stuffed money into Qiuhua’s mouth to keep her quiet when she found out about it.”

 

Madam Ji’s body swayed twice and she almost fell to the ground. Fortunately, she was supported by Ji Linfeng.

 

“Mom, you are weak. If you have anything to say, go back and talk about it.”

 

Madam Ji agreed and was supported by Xiuhe to walk towards Wutong Courtyard. As she walked, she said weakly: “Maybe I am tired today.”

 

Just now, Master Ci Feng interpreted her fortune and said it was a fortune of great disaster. He told her that the Marquis’ Mansion would face a great disaster in two months, and that the baby in her belly would be born in two months.

 

Aunt Xiuhe found out that Chunqin was indeed problematic, which meant that the disaster was most likely a case of baby swapping.

 

Combined with Lu Yiyi’s incident, it was obvious that what she heard was not an auditory hallucination.

 

Xiuhe supported Madam Ji and found that her hands were unusually cold and her palms were sweating. She asked with concern, “Madam, are you okay?” Madam suddenly asked her to secretly investigate Chunqin. She didn’t know what the girl had done wrong.

 

Madam Ji pretended to be calm and said, “Nothing, you guys go down, I want to lie down alone for a while. Call me for dinner.”

 

Xiuhe and Ji Linfeng were worried about her, so they didn’t go too far.

 

When the two of them walked out, Mrs. Ji slumped weakly on the sofa, tears falling from the corners of her eyes.

 

Ji Hua had already woken up, and seemed to feel the same way. She pouted and said, [“Why are you sad, Mom? Are you thinking about something unhappy?”]

 

[Mom, don’t be sad, your daughter will be fine.]

 

This time, she was absolutely certain that the sound came from the fetus in her womb. In other words, she heard the voice of her unborn daughter.

 

Her daughter called her mother, so how could she let her daughter be switched after two months?

 

Master Ci Feng told her that she would get what she wanted.

 

What is her lifelong wish? To have a daughter!

 

Mrs. Ji cried so hard that she couldn’t speak.

 

She would not let her daughter, whom she had waited so long for, be swapped with someone else. She must investigate why Chunqin wanted to swap her daughter. How could she have the guts to swap the daughter of the Marquis’s family?

 

Thinking of this, Mrs. Ji wiped away her tears and a burning fighting spirit ignited in her heart.

 

She was not afraid of ghosts, gods or heresies. The child in her belly was the result of her long-awaited efforts, and she would cherish her with her life.

 

She could hear her daughter’s voice, she thought, it must be because of the bond between mother and daughter.
