After crying, I slowly stood up and said to the people around me: "Please carry my wife down and set up a mourning hall!"

Aunt Hong was crying next to her, and at this time she choked and said, "Yes."

After saying that, she waved her hand, and the person behind her immediately followed and carried Xue Qian's body away. I continued to instruct: "Don't disturb the head of the family for the time being. When he wakes up, he will tell him that if he wants to blame him, I will say that it was my order."

"yes."

"Also, send someone to find it, block the surroundings, and look for it carefully!"

Mr. Ma said with a little hesitation: "Can he escape, will he stay around?"

I gritted my teeth and said, "He should have thought of this retreat in advance because he had thought of this way of retreat, but he could not leave like this by himself. Xichuan is our place, and he dare not take this risk. He should have arranged someone to pick him up before he could leave Xichuan."

“…”

"We have cleared the surroundings now, so those people probably haven't entered the surroundings of Gantang Village yet."

“…”

"He must be somewhere, waiting for his own people to come and pick him up."

“…”

"Go and look for it!"

When I heard me say the last two words, I almost roared. Mr. Ma nodded and did not dare to neglect any more. He hurriedly turned around to direct his people, blocked all the passages near Gantang Village, and searched carefully, and must find Pei Yuanxiu until he found!

After those people received the order and scattered, I turned around and said to Mr. Ma: "Mr.

He hurriedly looked at me: "What are the instructions for the eldest lady?"

“…”

I gritted my teeth and silently reached out to him with one hand: "Give me a knife."

I never thought that I would face death so soon and be my elder again.

And it is Xue Qian.

It's the mother.

When I walked back to her room, I saw Xue Qian's body on the wooden board and several maids were scrubbing her. I waved my hands and asked them to retreat. Then I picked up the handkerchief in the basin and wrung it out, gently wiped the traces of the ash on her cheeks.

Tears burst out from my eyes again.

I have cried many times because of her. When I was a child, I was frightened by her appearance and intimidated by her. When I followed my mother to leave the Yan family, I shed many tears. In my young heart, she was like a hideous witch, tearing all my beautiful memories apart and leaving me with cruel reality.

This understanding lasted for so many years until I returned to Xichuan again.

I just understood the meaning of my mother saying "New Madam, she also has her own Shura Field". I saw the wounds deep in her heart that had not healed for more than ten years, and also saw the fragility and helplessness that could not be concealed under her irritable and irritable emotions.

And now, I understand better that she actually has love in her heart.

She failed to get the love of her father, but her heart never dried up. No matter she is facing Yan Qingchen, me, or even Miaoyan, under the mask of simple and irritableness, there is a feeling she has tried her best to hide.

But, why?

Why didn't God give us more time?

I haven't told her yet that I'm actually very happy to reconcile with her, not for the overall situation at that time; I haven't told her yet that I actually respect her as much as my mother; I haven't told her yet that I actually...

Tears fell on her face one by one. I wanted to wipe her clean, but I couldn't resist the bursting of my tears. At this moment, I had no hatred in my heart, but I just regret. I watched the person I loved fall into a desperate situation again. Even this time, she didn't even have the chance to call for help, and she left me forever!

How many more?

How many people I love and those I care about will leave me like this?

How many times do I have to endure such pain?

Hearing that I could no longer cry, there were only a torn low roar in his throat. Everyone around him was frightened. Su Su came forward with tears and moved my shoulders: "Miss, Miss, don't do this! The old lady will die with her eyes open when she sees you like this!"

Aunt Hong also choked and said, "Miss, Madam, she just can't bear to see you in a difficult situation. She doesn't want to see you in pain, so she will help you kill Pei Yuanxiu. If you are like this now, how can you let her go on the road with peace of mind?"

“…”

"You let her, a mother, go with peace of mind!"

“…”

I almost bit my teeth, and finally stopped crying amid their consolation. I slowly raised my head, endured the torn pain in my chest, wiped her cheeks and body clean. Then the maids hurriedly brought their rush-made shrouds to change it to her.

I stepped aside, feeling that my eyes were getting darker and almost fell down. Fortunately, Aunt Hong and the others quickly supported me, looked at my pale face, and said worriedly: "Miss, you have to go back and rest."

"No!"

"This won't work, Miss!" Aunt Hong said anxiously: "There are many things here that need to be decided by the lady, and you can't fall."

"Yes, your face looks good."

The two of them persuaded me for a long time, and I really felt that if I didn't take a break, I might really fall down, so I could only let them take me back to my room and barely lie back on the bed.

But, I can't sleep at all.

In my heart, there seemed to be a fire burning, tormenting my internal organs, and the blood in my body seemed to be about to be fucked by Ao until my whole body was rotten to ashes.

The noisy sound outside never subsided. I stayed quietly until the evening before I slowly stood up with my numb body and changed into another plain white dress. When I was about to turn around and go out, I heard a clang and something fell to the ground.

When I looked back, it was the short knife that Mr. Ma gave me.

...

This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content behind! I was silent for a moment, squatted down to pick up the short knife, pulled it out a little, and the sharp blade immediately flashed with a dazzling cold light. I narrowed my eyes slightly, sent the blade back into the scabbard, and then put the short knife into my sleeve.

When I opened the door and walked out, a gust of wind blew. Even though my white clothes were constantly thin, I still felt a chill. I closed the door with my backhand and walked towards the mourning hall.

When they saw me coming, they all stopped what they were doing.

I walked straight forward, knelt down and kowtowed to Xue Qian's spiritual position, then stood up and looked at them, and they hurried to do their own things.

At this time, Mr. Ma walked up and said softly: "The person I went out to find came back to report the news, but he did not find him."

“…”

"Will he already-"

"No." I frowned slightly and interrupted him directly: "He must be fully prepared for things, and he will not put himself in real danger. The road to leave Sichuan is still far, and he cannot do it alone."

“…”

"He must be still nearby."

“…”

"Look for it again, don't miss a single place!"

"good."

Mr. Ma nodded and went down to order those people again.

When Yan Feibai and the others saw me appearing in the mourning hall, they all came to comfort me. I also said a few words to them to let them know that I had not fallen completely. Then I turned around and said to Tang Ting, "Don't stay here, hurry back to Chengdu. The news here may be transmitted back to Chengdu soon, so that Mr. Tang and Mr. An and others will all have preparations."

She nodded: "Yes."

"Also," I said: "The defense in Chengdu must not be relaxed."

"yes."

She nodded and turned around and left easily.

I explained a few more people one after another and asked them to go down to do what they should do. After explaining the last thing and everyone went down, I saw Yan Ruoyu standing opposite me, walking up with a haggard face: "Cousin."

"Um."

"Cousin, you--"

"I'm fine."

Now I don’t know who is more haggard than her, but I still let myself cheer up and ask her: “Where is my aunt’s spiritual position?”

"I put it inside. You haven't come back, and no one dares to enter the ancestral hall."

"Um."

I nodded, then walked inside and picked up Yan Yi's spiritual seat, and then said to them: "Let's go."

Originally, all the rituals had been completed last night, but I was obstructed by that incident when I was sending the spirits into the ancestral hall. Now everything is still the same. I took them outside the ancestral hall and kowtowed again, the door was opened.

I walked forward step by step with the spirit seat. Just as I stepped into the door, I heard footsteps sounding behind me. When I looked back, Yan Ruoyu followed me in.

I frowned slightly: "Ruoyu?"

She said, "Cousin, don't worry, I won't follow in."

“…”

"I'm just standing at the door."

I was silent for a moment and said, "Okay."

She really didn't move anymore, just stood there, and I walked in step by step with the token in hand.

The Yan Family Ancestral Hall is built large and deep. The gates that come in and out make it look particularly quiet and deep. After passing through several gates, I saw the ancestral hall in front of me, which was built on a high platform. With its own height, it showed a sense of majesty even in the night. In front of the open door, there were two thick red cylinders that reached the top of the beam. When I slowly walked up, I saw the tablets of the ancestors worshipped inside and the portraits.
