In the blink of an eye, something unexpected happened to everyone. Xing'er, who had been kneeling on the ground silently, suddenly said loudly: "Master, this matter has nothing to do with Auntie. It's because I can't bear to see Auntie Zhou being the only one to dote on me. He found poison on his own to murder him, but the slave stole the hairpin just to drive away the cook!"
Zhou was stunned: "You lied!"
Her words were really urgent, and everyone looked at her meaningfully. She panicked, and was even more annoyed that the maid in front of her was meddling in her own business. She slapped Myolie on the head and knocked her to the ground: "You vicious bastard." Oh, how dare you do such a heinous act! Come here, sell me to a brothel for twenty bucks!"
Han Yan was shocked. This Xing'er was loyal, but if she was sold to a brothel, she would die alive in this life. This Zhou family's cruel methods suddenly made him feel angry.
Auntie Wan opened her mouth, but before she could say anything, she saw the thin figure in the hall slam into the copper pillar on the side. Her movement was too fast and no one reacted. When she thought of pulling it out, there was only a fallen figure on the ground. Figures in a pool of blood.
"Myolie!" Aunt Wan screamed, stumbled away from the people around her and rushed towards her. Myolie was the personal maid who served the old lady with her, and the two of them were like sisters. Later, she was given to the master by the old lady, and Xing'er became her personal maid, but there was never a trace of jealousy or resentment. Xing'er followed her and never had a good life, but now, her good sister Xing'er was forced to death by these people!
"Master." Xing'er opened her eyes, and the blood on her forehead flowed all over her face, making her look ferocious and terrifying, but she smiled slightly: "In this mansion, only the master is the best to Xing'er. Xing'er There is nothing to repay, I only have one life." The voice gradually lowered: "I ask you one thing, please help me take care of my mother..."
Aunt Wan held her hand tightly and burst into tears: "I promise you."
Xing'er finally showed a relieved smile on her face, looked at Aunt Wan and said softly: "Wan'er... let's be sisters in the next life. Don't be born into a rich family."
The name she called was Auntie Wan's name when she was the old lady's maid. With tears in her eyes, Auntie Wan seemed to see the spring flowers blooming that year again. Two innocent girls were joking and joking in the courtyard. They thought they would have a wonderful life, but instead I don’t want fate to mess with people. One died a brutal death, and the other will remain in the cannibal mansion forever, never to see the light of day.
The person in her arms finally breathed her last. Aunt Wan laid Xing'er's body flat on the ground and showed a sad smile to the people in the seats.
I am afraid that no one in the hall expected that Xing'er would suddenly hit the pillar and commit suicide. Han Yan just had the attitude of watching a show at first, but now he was really angry. Xing'er's blood flowed all over the floor, and Aunt Mei's lips began to tremble. Only Mrs. Zhou looked unwilling and seemed to want to say something else.
Zhuang Qin stood up and took two steps towards her mother, when she suddenly fell down. Suddenly there was another rush, and Mother Chen said quickly: "Master, don't let the blood scare the ladies."
Zhuang Shiyang then remembered the two daughters in the hall, and waved his hand and ordered his servants to take them back to the house.
Before Han Yan left, he looked at Aunt Wan and saw that she looked miserable and embarrassed, and couldn't help but feel sympathy for her.
Mother Chen sent Han Yan back to the yard, ordered the kitchen to boil a bowl of ginger syrup to calm Han Yan's shock, and then led Han Yan into the house to sit down, closing the doors and windows.
Han Yan's heart went back and forth a thousand times, and she always felt that there were many things that were unreasonable about what happened today. The Zhou family clearly knew about Aunt Mei's plan, Zhuang Yushan pretended to be poisoned, and the doctor might have colluded with her a long time ago. But I didn't expect that Aunt Mei would save a trick and somehow get Aunt Wan's hairpin to frame someone else's crime, causing Xing'er to lose her life in vain to save her mistress.
Thinking of Xing'er, the ending of Ji Lan and Shu Hong being punished by Zhuang Yushan in the previous life appeared before his eyes. Han Yan clenched her fists subconsciously and her whole body began to tremble.
Shu Hong was a little worried when she saw Han Yan didn't speak and was just in a daze. Now that he saw her showing such a fearful posture, he quickly stepped forward and held Han Yan's hands: "What's wrong with you, Miss?"
Only then did Han Yan come back to his senses from the nightmare. Looking at Shu Hong's concerned eyes, he felt as if he was in another world for a moment.
Mother Chen went to the kitchen to watch. After what happened just now, she was even more determined that the young lady should not eat food by other people's hands. Ji Lan had just lit up the stove, and when he saw Han Yan's appearance, he quickly came closer to comfort him: "You must have been frightened by what happened just now. Don't be afraid, young lady, all the slaves are here."
Han Yan was surrounded by the two of them, and her mood gradually calmed down. He said, "You guys go and find out later, how are things outside handled?"
Ji Lan nodded: "Please don't worry, slave."
Han Yan leaned back and let out a long sigh: "It's a pity that Xing'er is a fierce one."
Ji Lan and Shu Hong looked at each other and advised together: "Miss, don't worry, everyone has his own destiny. Maybe Xing'er was taken in by the King of Hell and will steal a good fetus in the next life and be born into a rich family."
Han Yan just smiled bitterly when he heard this, next life? She herself is a reborn person and knows how precious life is. Don't place your hopes on the next life. With the intention of earning a lifetime, she must make up for all the things she deserved in her previous life.
His expression softened, and Han Yan said softly: "If it were me in that class today."
"Miss, please don't say that." Shu Hong was startled, and there was a rare trace of panic on her steady face: "My slaves will not let this happen. Miss, please don't worry."
Han Yan shook his head: "If that person in the hall today is me, you must believe that I have the ability to protect myself. You must not learn from Xing'er. Although I am loyal to protect the Lord, exchanging my life will only make me miserable in this life. The bedroom is uneasy."
Ji Lan said anxiously: "Bah, bah, bah, the lady will be fine. The slaves will also accompany the lady. Madam has said before that the slaves will accompany the lady in her marriage in the future."
Han Yan chuckled and glanced sideways at her: "I'm not shy or impetuous. A girl who hasn't left the palace always talks about getting married, and she's not afraid of people's jokes."
Shu Hong breathed a sigh of relief when she saw Han Yan showing off her face. She didn't know why, but Han Yan's expression just now made her feel uneasy, as if she was far away from her little master.
But here, Chen's mother had already found out the news before Han Yan. Zhuang Shiyang followed Xing'er's words and put all the blame on the slave. Zhou was unable to discipline his servants, so he voluntarily took Zhuang Qin to the Buddhist temple in Fuli to chant sutras and pray for seven or forty-nine days.
The cook was later revealed to be the one chosen by Aunt Mei to enter the house. Zhuang Shiyang blamed Aunt Mei for not knowing people well and grounded her. Only Zhou's mother and daughter, because of this disease, provided delicious food and drink, and for a time precious tonics and medicinal materials were continuously sent to Davidia Garden. Han Yan was ignored by others. This is a later topic and will not be mentioned.
