Late at night, after dinner, in the mourning hall, Yang Wangshi knelt on the futon, his lips kept squirming, I don't know what he was talking about, the two maids stood behind, with a worried look on their faces, and finally there was a maid who persuaded him: "Old lady, you just get up, you have been tired for a day, you have traveled so far, if you kneel down like this again, you don't sleep all night, your body will be unbearable, let's rest quickly, and besides, there will be time in the future, for the old man and the lady to wake the spirit, why rush this time?" ”

The maid's words were not only concise, but also so sassy and heroic, not like the usual maids, Yang Wang slowly opened his eyes, stopped muttering, looked at the spiritual position of his parents, and said calmly: "Ling'er, don't persuade me anymore, the old body has not returned home for more than 20 years, and has never fulfilled filial piety, I didn't expect that as soon as I entered the house, I heard that my parents had both died, and I would leave early tomorrow morning. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info you go to sleep first, don't worry about me, I want to accompany the second elder alone and talk. ”

Ling'er and the other maid glanced at each other, and both of them clearly knew that the old lady was not explaining or begging for anything to herself and others, but blaming herself, keeping a night of wake, kneeling and chanting, all of which were punishing herself, so as to alleviate the guilt in her heart.

It is because they understand this that both of them know very well in their hearts that at this moment, no matter how much they persuade them, they will not be able to stop the old lady's determination to keep the spirit, unless they use coercive means. looked at the old lady with a resolute face, no matter who it was, the two of them couldn't get down to that ruthless hand and knocked her unconscious.

Ling'er just wanted to say something more and persuade the old lady, but Yang Wangshi closed his eyes again, his lips squirmed, and he chanted silently, stubborn and stubborn, and no longer paid attention to the two.

In the end, Ling'er could only make a gesture to the other maid: "You stay here first, look at the old lady, don't have anything wrong, I'll go out and discuss it with others, see what to do about it, if the old lady really kneels like this for one night, the body will definitely be unbearable, and the mild will fall ill and become seriously ill." ”

The other maid nodded, and it made it all clear.

Walking lightly, he turned to leave, exited the mourning hall, and came to the outside of the house, only to see two big men guarding the door, expressionless, guarding the surroundings.

Squeak~

As soon as Ling'er closed the door, at this time, Yang Xiao leaned in and asked, "Sister Ling'er, how is the situation inside?" Still unwilling to rest, are you still keeping a vigil? ”

"Yes, Steward Yang, no matter how Jing'er and I persuade you, the old lady has to keep the spirit, what should I do now? If it continues like this, it won't take half an hour, the old lady's body will be unbearable, and she will faint, Steward Yang, hurry up and think of a way, you can't delay any longer. ”

Ling'er's anxiety and worry were beyond words, but Yang Xiao looked relaxed and calm, as if he had already had a countermeasure, beckoned to Ling'er, and said softly: "Sister Ling'er, come here with your ears, I tell you what to do, this matter is left to me, there is absolutely no problem, ensure that the old lady can rest." ”

Hearing this, Ling'er suddenly turned her face happy, turned her head sideways, and whispered in Yang Xiao's ear, and soon, Ling'er first looked embarrassed, and then, it seemed that Yang Xiao said something again, and became happy, and her eyes were shining.

After a while, the two stopped talking in a whisper, and Yang Lin explained softly: "Sister Ling'er, just do it according to the plan, you go into the house and tell Sister Jing'er about it, what to do, you should know, right?" ”

"Well, I know, don't worry." Ling'er whispered in response, pushed open the door, and walked in again, walking lightly and barely making any sound.

As soon as Ling'er walked in and closed the door, Yang Xiao took two steps back, turned around, and happened to stand side by side with the two big men: "Four brothers, I'll work hard for you tonight, I won't say more nonsense, tonight you take turns to keep vigil, two by two, without the permission of me and the other two sisters, no one is allowed to enter the mourning hall, so as not to endanger the safety of the old lady." ”

"After a while, the old lady is settled, you discuss, see who rests first, those two are responsible for guarding the first half of the night, after a while, I will call you, the two who rest enter the mourning hall and rest with me in the outhouse of the mourning hall, while Sister Ling'er and Sister Jing'er stay in the inner room and rest with the old lady, so that three lines of defense will be built, and the safety of the old lady will basically be no problem."

The two big men were like a stuffy gourd, they just nodded heavily, glanced at Yang Xiao, and didn't say anything more, their expressions were still stiff and old-fashioned.

Seeing this situation, it seemed that he was used to it, Yang Xiao didn't care about the expressions and demeanors of the two, and after getting a positive answer, Yang Xiao turned around and walked towards the door of the mourning hall, muttering words in his mouth.

"I didn't expect the young master to be like a god, and even thought of this matter, he really knew his mother Mo Ruozi. However, I don't know where the young master found so many stuffy gourds, and he didn't fart for a few days, and he was really suffocating all the way. ”

After muttering, Yang Xiao couldn't help but glance back at the two big men, and at the same time, as if he had taken something out of his arms, through the sandpaper on the window, he looked at the room and the situation in the mourning hall.

At this moment, Ling'er had already stood back in her original position, standing side by side with another maid, that is, Jing'er, guarding behind Yang Wang's family, as soon as she stood still, she immediately started to sign to the other maid, and gestured lightly with both hands: "Jing'er, hurry up, don't say anything, don't ask anything, listen to me, cover your mouth and nose, and hold your breath." ”

Jing'er saw that Ling'er had covered her mouth and nose, and was still signaling herself to hurry up, although she didn't know what was going on, what happened, and what did she mean by saying these words, although she had many doubts in her heart, she still did it out of trust, her eyes flickered, full of doubts and puzzlement.

As if sensing the inquiry in Jing'er's eyes, Ling'er blinked, raised her chin to the door, and gestured slightly, Jing'er immediately understood and looked sideways.

At this moment, I saw that a bamboo tube was suddenly inserted into the window next to the door, and a burst of white smoke rose from it, which quickly spread and spread in the mourning hall, and soon filled the entire mourning hall.

Squeak~!

At this time, the door of the mourning hall was opened, and then Yang Xiao rushed in from the outside, walked quickly, came to Yang Wang's side, and whispered to the side: "Okay, don't be stunned anymore, two sisters, quickly carry the old lady into the inner room, put her on the bed to rest, early tomorrow morning, act according to the plan, we will wake up the old lady." ”

At this moment, Jing'er had already figured out the taste, and probably guessed what Yang Xiao and Ling'er's plan was, and she knew it in her heart, and she agreed very much, so she didn't say anything more and asked anything, but helped Yang Wang's family to the back room with Ling'er.

Yang Xiao looked at the mourning hall, looked around the left and right, showed infinite emotion on his face, and muttered to himself: "This uncle is really enough, it is clear to the discerning person at a glance, this mourning hall is completely new, and it was only cleaned up today, otherwise, where is there such a strong damp smell, hey...."

After a few minutes, after feeling the incense blowing away in the house, he walked towards the door, gently closed the two doors, and beckoned at the same time: "Come in, two brothers, take turns to keep vigil, alternate rest, and have to hurry tomorrow morning." ”

At the same time, in another house in the palace, there was a sound of conversation and whispering in the dark room.

"Hey, sir, you say, why did my aunt and grandmother come back suddenly? I didn't say hello beforehand, and we didn't receive any rumors, is it that the person who came was not good, and he came for that family property? ”

"Don't worry, only me and the second child know about that family property, and the property left by the second elder to Yulian has been divided equally between me and the second child, just a few people know, no one will be stupid to tell my sister about it."

"Moreover, even if my sister knows about this matter, she has nothing to do with us, no way, don't forget, now the Qing court has been overthrown by the peasant army, and the Yang family in Jinhua Mansion is not involved with the Qing court, and it is dedicated to the royal worship of silk, and that Yang Lin, my nephew, was even more named the world's first righteous businessman by Qianlong and Jiaqing, do you say those rebels can let them go? I've been taking care of myself for a long time, how can I still have the heart to stir up trouble in our house? ”

"Master, don't say it, it's really possible, but I've heard that those princes of the Qing court, Baylor, and the businessmen who have been in close contact with each other, have been arrested by the leaders of the rebel army, criticized and fought on the street, and their property has been confiscated, so it's not miserable, and the Yang family will not have good fruits."

"Okay, madam, don't talk about this, it's late, hurry up and go to sleep, don't worry so much, anyway, she has to leave early tomorrow morning, just one night, how can she know about the family property?"

"That's right, sir, let's rest early."

Calm returned to the dark room, and soon after, the sound of even breathing and muffled snoring sounded in the room, and it was clear that it was none other than Wang Weidong and his wife who lived in this room.
