The hot summer seems to have passed in the blink of an eye, and the mountains and forests are already a little cool in mid-August.

Shao Mingqing stepped over the crazy grass, jumped off the rock, and landed on the road, he looked back, but saw the girl rushing towards him.

He hurriedly reached out and grabbed it, and pedaled back a few steps before he stood still, Xie Roujia hung on him.

"You caught up with me?" Shao Mingqing said with a smile.

Xie Roujia pushed him away and stood firm.

"Young Master Shao, do you think you're running fast?" "Actually, it's just because I used to be slow." ”

Shao Mingqing laughed.

Xie Roujia staggered past him and walked forward.

"What do you do running up and down the mountain every day?" Shao Mingqing asked.

Xie Roujia shook her hand.

"Don't do anything." She said.

"What are you not doing?" Shao Mingqing asked with a smile, took a few steps forward and walked backwards to look at her, "You are splashing and rolling around, pretending to be crazy or stupid, or if you don't let me enter your house, you learn to swim in the water and go to school to learn embroidery for others, what are you not doing now, and for whom?" ”

Xie Roujia laughed, smiling and sour.

"No one is for it, and no one else is rare." She said, looking down at her hands.

More than two months have passed, and the hands that were once smooth and white have become rough, and they are still covered with small cuts cut by branches or weeds.

These hands once held a heart and gave it to others, but it was ......

There seemed to be the sound of a thumper, and the gnashing of teeth of a female voice.

"Then why don't you die? Then why don't you die yet! ”

Xie Roujia felt a faint pain in her hand.

She let out a breath and looked up.

Shao Mingqing smiled.

"That's someone else's loss." He said.

This kid can be regarded as saying a comforting word.

"How fun it is to be a fool like you. Why not. Shao Mingqing continued.

Xie Roujia was stunned, raised his hand and hit it, Shao Mingqing avoided it with three jumps and two jumps, and walked along the mountain road with a smile.

Xie Roujia snorted at his back.

Shui Ying and Jiang Ling ran head-on.

"Miss, Aunt Kanshan said that she caught a little fox cub, let's go and take a look." The two of them said with a smile.

Now they are getting acquainted with the mountain watchman couple.

Xie Roujia smiled and nodded.

"Okay." She said.

Just as he was about to step forward, he heard the sound of horses in the distance, and it seemed that someone had entered the mountain.

Although there are not many loose mineral sands, there will be people who come to collect cinnabar once a month, and today is August 13, and it will be 15 soon. The sand was collected in advance. The person in charge doesn't have to go into the mountain to have a comfortable reunion festival.

"Let's go." Xie Roujia said, ignoring it no longer, and the three of them walked towards the residence of the mountain watcher with a smile.

The front of the Xie family ancestral hall turned over on their backs.

The little maids led the horses in a chaotic manner, and the servants and girls ran forward and backward. Put a footstool and help her young lady down from the carriage.

"Grab my fan."

"Where's my cloak?"

The voices of girls rang out in front of the door. For a time, the sound of warblers and swallows was very lively.

"Alright, alright. Ladies, come in, the rooms in the backyard are ready. Let's freshen up and rest. The lady in charge greeted loudly.

After shouting for a while, these girls were allowed to enter the house, and the backyard was bustling again.

Old Madam Xie put down the wine jug in her hand with some impatience.

"It's noisy, why are so many people coming?" She said.

Xie Rouhui stood up.

"Grandmother." She shouted, "It's me...."

Old Madam Xie looked at her with a flirtatious eye.

Xie Rouhui's voice paused.

"Yes, I invited them." She continued, taking a step forward, "After the fifteenth year, we will select the people who will participate in the sacrifice on March 3 of next year, and when it is the festival, my husband will give us a few days off to let us relax, and I am just going to see my grandmother, so I invite everyone to come with me." ”

"It's also to make your place lively." Mrs. Xie said.

"Do I need to be busy?" Old Madam Xie said.

Xie Rouhui didn't sit or stand, she wanted to admit her mistake, but she thought that Old Madam Xie hated her the most to admit her mistake, and she was very embarrassed for a moment.

"Mother, you've always been like that." Mrs. Xie frowned and said, "Can't you take other people's kindness?" Always have to say weird things and embarrass people, and you're happy? ”

Old Madam Xie snorted.

"You said it, other people's kindness is my business." She said.

As soon as they met, they quarreled, and it was always like this, Xie Wenxing was busy playing a round.

"Okay, okay, it's all kind, it's all kind." He said, "Ayuan and Huihui are worried that their mother will be lonely for 15 years alone, and their mother is worried that Ayuan and Huihui will go out for fear that you will be affected." ”

After he finished speaking, he looked at Xie Rouhui again.

"Megumi, go quickly, the sisters are waiting for you."

Xie Rouhui responded.

"Grandmother, I'll bring my sisters to greet you." She asked.

Old Madam Xie frowned.

"No, no, it's so tiring to travel, and your grandmother doesn't care about this ceremony, don't be restrained when you come." Old Lady Xie said with a smile and stood up, "Just say hello to me, Huihui, come, come, take a look at the few new birds and crickets I have raised here." ”

Grandfather really relieved this embarrassment.

Xie Rouhui nodded happily, stretched out her hand to help Old Lady Xie out.

"Mother, can't you be nicer to Megumi?" Mrs. Xie said angrily.

"I'm doing this to everyone, why am I not good to her?" Old Madam Xie said.

"You don't do that to Jiajia." Mrs. Xie said.

Old Madam Xie snorted.

"I don't think so." "I'm doing this to anyone," she said. ”

"You..."Mrs. Xie was anxious again.

"Alright, alright." Xie Wenxing had to interrupt again, "I didn't come here to say this, there are two grandchildren in the family." What's so good or bad. ”

He said and looked at Old Madam Xie.

"Mother, are you really not going back to fifteen?"

Old Madam Xie hummed.

"Trouble, tossing back and forth." She said, leaning back in her chair and closing her eyes.

"It's strangely deserted." Xie Wenxing said.

"It's not lonely, it's lonely, my mother, my grandmother, and my grandmother are all here." Old Madam Xie said.

In the ancestral hall in front, the tablets of the previous Dan lords are all placed there, and only the tablets of the Dan lords can be placed here.

It's just that it sounds more cold.

"So, the kid didn't make trouble again, did he?" Xie Wenxing was busy changing the topic again, and this topic was exported. The atmosphere in the room was a little lower again.

Xie Wenxing sighed in his heart. Shicai's words make people feel cold on the outside, but when it comes to this child, everyone will be cold in their hearts.

It's chilling.

What could be more chilling than watching your own children fratricidal.

"Nope." Old Madam Xie said.

"It's good if she doesn't come, if she makes trouble again. Mother, don't be pnived. Mrs. Xie said lightly.

"Where can I pamper her?" Old Madam Xie sneered. He raised the flask in his hand and took a sip. The voice was vague, "People can only indulge themselves by themselves." ”

…………………………………

"This is our family's ancestral hall."

A few girls looked at the tall and solemn hall in front of them, and the corridors on both sides met. Cornices walk on the wall.

"Yes, that's Da Wuqing's tomb over there." Someone familiar with this place stretched out his hand and pointed to the mountain in the distance and said.

The mountain scenery is beautiful under the sun.

"Let's go pay our respects later." Someone couldn't help but say.

The surroundings of Huaiqingtai are extremely beautifully built, and it is one of the must-visit places in Yushan, but they have limited time to go out all year round, so it is good to come once a year.

This immediately touched everyone's hearts.

"Go talk to Megumi, Megumi is very talkative." Everyone was boistering each other.

"Still." A girl thought of something, with a little uneasiness, looked around, and whispered, "That... Is she locked up here? ”

These words made the girls all quiet down, and they couldn't help but look around.

She's...

It's been more than two months since I was kicked out, and I don't know what has become of me.

I put on a mask that I was not allowed to take off in front of people, and I was locked up here again....

They looked at the tall tree-lined courtyard and the solemn dark mansion.

I don't see the light of day.

I heard that it won't be long before people don't see the light of day.

"What are you talking about?" Someone asked.

This sudden sound made the girl scream in fright, turned around in a panic, and saw Xie Rouhui walking over with Xie Roushu, Xie Yao, Xie Rouqing and several other girls.

They followed Mrs. Xie to see the birds and crickets.

Xie Roushu was also taken aback by them.

"What are you doing, you're shocked." She complained.

Naturally, the girls didn't dare to say anything, so they gathered around and said something else.

"Let's go around the mountains." Xie Rouhui took the initiative to say, "I have already told my grandfather, and he ordered someone to accompany us up." ”

The girls cheered with joy.

"Megumi is the most empathetic." Everyone shouted in a mess.

"I want to play it myself." Xie Rouhui covered her mouth and smiled, blinking playfully.

The girls were even happier, beckoning their respective girls to go out.

Xie Roushu wanted to squeeze to Xie Rouhui's side, but Xie Rouhui held Xie Rouqing's hand.

"There's something I told my mother." She whispered.

Xie Rouqing was stunned.

"What's the matter?" She asked.

"The sacrificial dance." Xie Rouhui said in a low voice, looking at her and smiling, "There will definitely be yours." ”

The candidate for the sacrificial dance is decided by the eldest lady and the elders of the clan, although for the face of the Xie clan, the selection is very rigorous and harsh, but since it is a person to choose, it is still inevitable to be human.

If you choose according to the conditions, Xie Rouqing will definitely not be selected, but if the eldest lady speaks, there will be no problem.

"No, no, no, I ......," Xie Rouqing said hurriedly.

Xie Yao reached out and put his hand on her shoulder.

"Third sister, this is a good thing, I know you have always wanted to participate in the sacrifice." She said with a smile.

Good morning~

If you go out today, you can't watch it twice, sorry, sorry. (To be continued......) R1292
