Jiang Linmin's mother-in-law's resentment had reached a certain level.
As a result, Jiang Linmin could see her mother-in-law even without using the Yin-Yang Talisman.
Scolded like this by her mother-in-law, Jiang Linmin's face turned ugly and wronged.
Her mother-in-law's words implied she was treated as useless. In the Liu family, even if she hadn't contributed much, she had at least endured hardship.
Even so, she still spoke kindly, "Mother-in-law, you should hurry and reincarnate to the underworld. Please don't keep haunting us."
Jiang Linmin's mother-in-law said menacingly, "You want me to go to the underworld? Fine, if you have the ability, give birth to a son."
"If you can't give birth now, why are you telling me to go to the underworld? I should have let Liu Liu divorce you back then. You useless thing, now your courage has grown, and you even dare to hire someone to deal with me."
"Hurry up and let that woman release me. What! Do you want to rebel? Do you really think the Liu family will be yours to command just because I'm dead? You're dreaming!"
"Hurry up and release me, or I'll tell Liu Liu. Your comfortable and leisurely life all depends on my Liu family supporting you. Without my Liu family, you are nothing."
Jiang Linmin was so scolded that she couldn't retort.
Zhao Yan finally understood that when Jiang Linmin's mother-in-law was alive, she completely suppressed Jiang Linmin, making her unable to lift her head.
Even with Zhao Yan backing her now, Jiang Linmin was still afraid of being dominated.
"Master Zhao, what should we do?" Jiang Linmin said aggrievedly.
Zhao Yan said softly, "Do you still want to fight with words?"
With her mother-in-law's sharp tongue, Jiang Linmin was no match. No matter what she said, her mother-in-law would not change her mind.
Releasing her mother-in-law would be like letting a tiger return to the mountains.
Then, Jiang Linmin would face her "good days."
"I'll do as you say!" Jiang Linmin dared not look at her mother-in-law and said to Zhao Yan.
Zhao Yan hummed softly, "Alright, since you said you'll do as I say, then from now on, no matter what happens, you must endure it. Do you understand?"
"If you can't endure it, then my plan will be ruined."
Jiang Linmin nodded.
Zhao Yan rubbed her neck and twisted her wrist.
She took out a long whip from her bag.
This long whip was covered with thorns, and its core was a rope twisted from willow branches.
She walked step by step towards Jiang Linmin's mother-in-law.
Seeing Zhao Yan approach, Jiang Linmin's mother-in-law's expression changed, especially looking at the willow branches in her hand, she became increasingly flustered.
Willow branches hitting ghosts, that really hurts.
"The dead should not interfere in the affairs of the living. You are already dead and should not be concerned with these matters, so I will give you two choices."
"First, go back and reincarnate properly in the underworld."
"Second, you will properly taste my whip, and I will whip you back."
"This is my family matter, why are you, an outsider, interfering!" Jiang Linmin's mother-in-law said fearfully, trying to retreat but was blocked by the talismans.
Without a word, Zhao Yan swung the whip fiercely, making a "crack" sound as it cut through the air.
She whipped fiercely.
"Ah!"
"You're finished! When I get out of here, I'll kill you!"
The whip strike made Jiang Linmin's mother-in-law cry out in pain.
"Crack!"
"Jiang Linmin, you wicked woman, look at how the person you hired is treating your mother-in-law."
"Crack!"
Zhao Yan whipped down with all her might.
Jiang Linmin's mother-in-law screamed in agony, unable to run and looking at her resentfully.
"Jiang Linmin, you are so heartless! I am Liu Liu's biological mother. When I was alive, I was never this heartless to you!"
"Look carefully, see how the person you hired is beating me!"
"Crack, crack..."
"Hurry and make her stop, Minmin. I know I was wrong, and I won't interfere in your affairs anymore. Hurry and make her stop."
"I am your mother-in-law."
With a heart-wrenching roar, Jiang Linmin's face showed distress.
Before Zhao Yan could land another whip, Jiang Linmin grabbed her hand.
Jiang Linmin cried, "Master Zhao, don't hit her anymore, don't hit her anymore."
Zhao Yan stopped and said, "If I whip her a few more times, she'll soften up and leave."
"This kind of ghost only responds to toughness, not softness. Although she's shouting fiercely, she deserves it."
"Now, although she's begging for mercy, it's only with her words."
"No more hitting, no more hitting. Let's try another method. If you keep hitting her, she'll be completely annihilated. She's my husband's mother, and if my husband finds out, he'll scold me to death," Jiang Linmin waved her hands at Zhao Yan.
Zhao Yan gave her a speechless look.
Looking at Jiang Linmin's mother-in-law, who showed a smug expression, Zhao Yan realized that if she continued to whip her now, it wouldn't have the same effect.
"I already told you to endure, to endure. It's only been a few whips, and you're already this worried?"
"But I'm afraid she'll tell my husband," Jiang Linmin said.
Zhao Yan sighed, rubbed her temples, and put away the whip.
"Can you help me drive her away!"
Zhao Yan removed a few talismans.
Freed from the restraint of the talismans, Jiang Linmin's mother-in-law regained her freedom.
"Hurry up and go!" Zhao Yan yelled at Jiang Linmin's mother-in-law.
"I'm going, I'm going. Minmin, you're really something," Jiang Linmin's mother-in-law said softly. Her spectral form passed through the wall and disappeared.
Watching her mother-in-law disappear, Jiang Linmin sat heavily on the bed.
"She's finally gone," Jiang Linmin breathed a sigh of relief and said to Zhao Yan, "Thank you, Master Zhao."
"Xinxin, settle the bill," Zhao Yan said to Wu Jiaxin.
Wu Jiaxin walked over with a notebook and said to Jiang Linmin, "Sister Jiang, it's thirteen talismans in total, thirteen thousand yuan."
"Thirteen thousand, right? Okay." Jiang Linmin took out her phone.
"You should buy some protective talismans," Zhao Yan said.
"Didn't my mother-in-law already leave? She said she wouldn't bother me anymore," Jiang Linmin said.
Zhao Yan stared at her with wide eyes.
She believed the ghost's lies.
Perhaps she had stayed home for too long and hadn't interacted with people outside, not knowing the wickedness of human hearts.
Jiang Linmin was her customer, and Zhao Yan would do as the customer said. Since she didn't want to buy more, Zhao Yan wouldn't ask again.
"Alright, I understand," Zhao Yan said softly.
After receiving the thirteen thousand yuan, Zhao Yan put her phone in her pocket.
"Then we're leaving," Zhao Yan said.
Jiang Linmin stood up, "I'll see you out."
"No need, you should rest," Zhao Yan said softly.
Jiang Linmin was just being polite and didn't actually intend to see them out.
Taking the elevator, Zhao Yan looked at Jiang Linmin and noticed a strange look in her eyes.
She shook her head and didn't say anything more.
"Sister Zhao, we earned thirteen thousand tonight."
