As soon as Lan Yu finished her sentence, a series of questions arose from the depths of my heart.

The methods in the hall, if one did not torture a person to death, they would never be finished. How could they so easily leave a person at the unmarked cemetery?

Furthermore, the unmarked cemetery was located in the outskirts of the city, two to three miles away. As a frail and weak girl, if she were to lie in that place, it would be impossible for her to hire a car.

At first, he felt that this was just a part of the story, but after some careful consideration, he realized that there were a lot of inside information.

I wonder if the father of the bean cake had the same doubts when he heard this.

On second thought, I thought I was ridiculous.

At least eight or nine years ago, and the Pea Pancake parents were dead, so what was the point in finding out?

"What happened next?"

I received the soup granny from Lan Lingyun and hugged her to my chest. I sat cross-legged on the brick bed and listened to her continue: "Not long after the beancurd was given birth, the beancurd mother went out to buy vegetables and never came back. The father went to find his wife and also left forever, never to be heard from again …"

I couldn't help but furrow my brows as I asked, "Could it be that no one went to look for them?"

Lan Lingyun sighed, "How can I not look for him!?" Liu Xiu Niang knew that her brother and sister-in-law were missing so she reported it all the way to the Chief Emissary. However, in the end, it was just a loss of two civilians, so how could the Lord have the time to bother with them. "People in our family all say that Sesame Rice Bread is a fox spirit and their father was tricked into the fox's cave …"

I whispered, "Nonsense!"

A woman was born with a soft heart, while a mother was born with a strong will.

According to Lan Li, when that girl went missing, she was just a baby in her infancy. What was the reason for her determination to abandon her child?

There was a more terrible conjecture lingering in my mind.

It was very likely that the mother of the bean cake had been taken away by someone. Even the father of the bean cake had been taken away by that group of people.

That night, I had a dream I hadn't had for a long time.

In the dream, I was holding a child, swaying up and down, just to make him stop crying and take off the small quilt in front of the child. Surprisingly, it was the face of a bean cake.

This dream caused me to feel creepy after seeing the bean cake for many days.

In the blink of an eye, eleven days had passed. Zhou Baumu's wounds had fully healed, but there was a long scar on the back of his head. In addition to that, Huang Gangzhong had cut off more than half of the hair on the back of his head in order to treat his wounds. Occasionally, he would walk around the garden, causing the young maidservants to chase after him, calling him "Lang Man Zhou".

I couldn't help but sigh inwardly. An expert in the civil realm. This nickname was indeed able to transmit one's spirit.

He brought his wife and his mother to my room to thank me. He knelt outside the screen, lowered his head, and was about to fall asleep when I called out to him, "Bai Mu's family, please help him up. Chief Steward Zhou's head is extremely important. I still have a lot of uses for it, so I can't just knock it out on my green brick floor! "

The Hundred Wood Clan's heartbroken husband responded with a laugh. With his stomach slightly bulging up, he forcefully pulled the Hundred Wood Sword up.

Zhou Baumu then took advantage of the situation and said: "It's already getting better, and I don't dare to live in the inner courtyard anymore. My wife and mother have already cleaned up the courtyard so Second Young Master can move back anytime."

When the family sitting next to me heard this, they couldn't help but want to move. They grinned at me, trying to curry favor with me.

A few days ago, Jiayi's body had already recovered. He was jumping around and playing around, complaining that I had trapped him in the yard all day.

I patted on Jiayi's back as if I was comforting him. I smiled and said to the people outside, "I'm not in a hurry. The most important thing is to recuperate from my illness!"

"Mr. Huang said that I am fine. In two or three months, the scars will naturally disappear."

It was only when he mentioned it that I remembered. No wonder I had always felt that something was missing.

It turned out to be missing the pair of cold, clear, and cold eyes of Huang Lengzhong.

I pretended to ask carelessly, "Why didn't Mr. Huang come?"

A troubled expression appeared on Zhou Bamu's face. He lowered his head and did not make a sound. The Hundred Wood Family figure turned and walked in from behind the screen.

I nodded at her, motioning her to come closer.

With a troubled expression on his face, he said in a low voice: "This servant has also gone to invite Mister Huang. He said that it is impolite to meet the female servant of the inner chamber several times. If it were not for the young lady's invitation, he would never have taken another step forward."

I had a feeling that I didn't know whether to laugh or cry.

What should I say about this man?

One moment they were close, the next they were distant. They were like children.

I smiled and nodded. "I understand. "Then go back and send me a message saying that thank you for your help these few days. Since Mister is such a polite person, then I won't force you. I hope Mister can forgive me for my impoliteness."

Although the people from the Zhou family were somewhat surprised, they were only stunned for a moment. Then, they reacted in the blink of an eye and retreated with their hands hanging down.

On the second day, I returned from greeting my grandmother. Zhou Baumu came with his mother's daughter-in-law to formally thank me, and at the same time returned to his original duties.

Seeing that the Hundred Wood Family was already pregnant, I couldn't help but laugh. "Now that you have a body, if it's inconvenient for you to stay at Aunt Chen's place, why don't you go home and rest?"

Bai Mu immediately kneeled down and said: "It's already been three months since, and the previous Mr Huang had his pulse taken. He said that he can sit tight and normal activities are not important at all. Moreover, as for Aunt Chen, she was taken care of by a servant from the start, and now that she's suddenly let go, this servant cannot stop worrying. "

Old Mrs. Zhou looked at her daughter-in-law, her face somewhat unsightly.

I cast a grateful gaze at the Hundred Wood Clan and smiled. "If that's the case, I'll have to trouble you. Just come and tell me if you have any inconvenience. Don't let yourself be wronged."

Bai Mu hurriedly bowed and thanked him again, then asked with a smile: "Miss, aren't you going to send Mr. Huang off?"

I was stunned.

"Is Huang Gongzhong leaving today?"

The expression on the face of the Hundred Wood Clan member was even more puzzled than mine as he asked with a smile, "Could it be that you didn't meet Mister in the Old Ancestor's courtyard? Mister brought little kids and went out the door with us. He said that he was going to return to the medicine store to pay his respects to the ancestors and the juniors! "

In order to send Huang Lang Zhong off, I had no choice but to send a little girl to carry the mansion, informing my mothers who were waiting for me to come back in two hours.

I took Lan Li and a few other mothers who used to go out with me, and hurried to the second door.

Coincidentally, in front of the bridge, he ran into Huang Xiaolong, who was wearing a robe with a dark tattoo on it. He was still carrying the medicine box and was led by Hong Yu to the front.

Red Jade saw me from afar and hurriedly stopped at the foot of the bridge. Yet, Huang Gongzhong had to quickly stop as he passed by the bridge and realized that the boy beside him was still standing on the other side of the bridge, looking at him from afar.

Even from a distance, I could see the helplessness on his face.

I raised my eyebrows.

Brother, you can't help it, I can't help but feel helpless as well!

After greeting Hong Yu, Hong Yu pulled me to one side and whispered to me, "Miss, did you offend Young Noble Huang somehow?"

Secretly stroking my sleeves, I said nervously, "This … "No way!"

Hong Yu raised her eyebrows with a smile that wasn't a smile on her face. She tugged on my wrist, leaned closer, and said, "Young Noble Huang, this morning you asked the old lady to clean out everyone in the room and spoke to the old lady alone for a long time!"

I felt a pang of fear.

He quickly asked, "Did you hear something?"

Hong Yu straightened her back as she said seriously, "The old granny chased us out and even the servants don't know what Young Noble Huang said!"

I secretly pinched the red jade and said, "I don't know about you! Relying on the fact that she was a favoured girl, he didn't dare to listen to her words! If you are like this today, then tomorrow, I will be your servant. Let's see if you can handle the food! "

"Aiyo!" Red Jade knew that I was anxious, so she giggled and whispered in my ear, "Young Noble Huang told the old lady this morning that he appreciates young miss' good nature and cleanliness. He is preparing to pack up and return to the Huang family today, begging the Old Master to send someone over to marry you!"

It's over!

It's over!

I felt a wave of cold that seemed to seep out from my heart, quickly soaking the top of my head. My entire body was ice-cold, and I couldn't even breathe.

Is this what I am? Flipping over a boat in a ditch?

I thought that bastard Jiang Ming would give me trouble, and I even thought that one day, if I became enemies with King Qi, he would become an insurmountable obstacle for me. But I never thought that this Huang Gongzi, whom I personally invited back, would become my obstacle!

"Then... What does Grandmother mean by that old man? "

I tremblingly asked, afraid that Hong Yu would open her mouth and say something I didn't want to hear that I didn't dare to.

Hong Yu gave me a sidelong glance and said, "Miss, this is just a barrier! "Think about it, what time is it? Is there any reason to bring up marriage?"

Seemingly enlightened, I suddenly heave a sigh of relief.

That's right!

I am carrying my mother's filial piety with me, how can I talk about marriage!

"The old granny is someone who wants to leave. Naturally, she wouldn't use such a thing to create trouble for the young mistress!"

The Red Jade God smiled at me.

Red Jade was acting as a voice transmitter, conveying to me the kindness of her grandmother.

I smiled and nodded at her, indicating that I had already accepted her request. She could go back and report without worries.

With this episode, I felt more and more that the way Huang Lang stared at me was exceptionally hot, so I had to force myself to straighten my back and walk him to the door.

"Thank you, Brother Huang Shi." I curtsied to Huang Gongzhong and took the wooden box from Lan Ling behind me. I handed it to Huang Gangzhong and said, "A small gift, please express your sincerity. I hope you won't refuse!"

Huang Lang gave me a bright smile and extended his hand to receive it. His fingers were slender and slender, like the warmth of jade bamboo.

Knowing that the light was shining on top of my head, I didn't dare to raise my head. All I did was bow my head in a respectful manner.

"Can I have a chat with Junior Sister alone?"

It was still a warm voice, but I didn't think it was as pleasant as it used to be.

The hearts of all the women in the world were like this. If a person who did not love her pursued her painstakingly, she would have no other thoughts apart from worry.

I feel that my heart is clear, to him, there is gratitude, there is guilt, there is no love between a man and a woman.

I don't want to lie to him, but I can't lie to myself either.

"Please come this way, brother!"

I smiled and nodded, making a gesture of invitation, and pointed to the small garden in front of the mourning hall.

The two of us walked away alone, admiring the snow and the jade. The atmosphere was quite relaxed.

The winter weather was bleak, and there were no flowers. When we reached the depths, I stopped and stood beside him, gazing at the drooping eaves of the mourning hall.

"… …." Don't you want to marry me? "

Hearing his tone, I was slightly surprised and couldn't help but turn my head to look at him.

He had seen him in the past with a straight face, but he had never seen such a soulless Huang Man.

The corners of his mouth moved as a faint smile appeared on his face. He said: "Although I know you don't want to marry me but I still want to marry you!"

I was so sad that I didn't know what to say.

He didn't seem to want my answer, so he continued, "All my brothers and sisters in the family treat me as a monster and don't want to get close to me. "Only Grandfather took care of me since I was young. I always thought that in this world, other than him, no one else could understand me, but afterwards, I met you, Miss Yang, and you never minded the difference in me. Every time I saw you smile, I felt really happy from the bottom of my heart …"

After hearing what he said, I couldn't help but turn my head a little to the side. I covered my mouth and nose with the handkerchief and gave a light cough to wipe away the tears at the corners of my eyes.

Once upon a time, I also so humbly loved others.

"I always thought it would be great if I could just look at you from afar. But then I realized that I had to see you every day to be happy. "When I finally moved in and saw you everyday, I also felt that it would be great if I could talk to you like this every day …"

The sun was shining warmly, and I was listening to the chatter about his worries with narrowed eyes until my feet went numb and his saliva dried up.

He lowered his eyes, stared at the ground at his feet, and leveled it with his boot. "Are you sure you don't want to marry me?" he asked.

I don't know if it was my throat or my heart was bitter, but I actually felt that for a moment, I couldn't say anything.

"I …"

Seeing that a thin layer of hope had appeared on Huang Lang's face, I clenched my fists tightly and spoke out, "Brother Sheng Ping, there is no logic in your heart, there is nothing else. There is nothing else that you wish for."

Huang Lang forced a smile and said, "So to Miss Yu, the person in front of you is not the person you like. No wonder I can't beg but you can't. May I ask who Miss wishes for?"

I faintly smiled and said, "It's me."
