Chapter 782 Ghost Shave (2)_1
The maids and old women in the house were all terrified.
Frightened by the thought that it could really be a vengeful spirit seeking retribution, Lady Chen, who had stayed under the pretense of nursing injuries, wondered if Pei Wenjie’s restless ghost, having failed to claim a life last time, had now come for Pei Wensheng’s... To give him the "ghost’s shave"!? This thought instantly terrified her beyond measure. Her own hair wouldn’t also... When she combed her hair, it too began to fall out, in great clumps, "Ah, ah, ah..."
Qian Wanxiu blamed the doctor for prescribing poisoned medicine, which caused Pei Wensheng to be poisoned.
But when they switched to a new doctor, no signs of poisoning could be found.
Even after switching to yet another doctor, nothing was diagnosed.
However, Pei Wensheng’s hair continued to fall out even more. He had only to untie his hair bun, and without yet combing, a large clump would fall out.
Initially, it was Shu Hua who attended to him, washing his face and combing his hair. After he lost hair, he scolded Shu Hua fiercely and threw a teacup at her, drenching her. Now that Qian Wanxiu combed his hair, he was truly terrified.
Pei Zongli prided himself on having read the Holy Book and didn’t believe in ghosts or deities, but seeing Pei Wensheng on the verge of baldness, he too started to feel a fear.
Qian Wanxiu feared that Pei Qin was secretly playing tricks and harming them. She packed her things and said she would take her son back to her maternal home in Fu City. She also sought famous doctors in Runing Prefecture to cure Pei Wensheng’s strange hair loss.
Lady Chen was extremely scared and insisted on going with them to seek treatment for her condition as well.
