Chapter 19: Grandmother

The room was cold and cold, and the mother and daughter were talking, when they heard Jiang's mother's voice coming from outside, "Mrs., girl, the old lady has arrived." ”

Xue Ling got up and said in his heart, finally here.

Jiang Shi also stood up and said to Jiang's mother, "You went and called the fourth girl, and you said that someone from the family was coming." ”

Jiang Yue took the Xue Ling sisters to the gate of the ancestral house, several cars and horses were parked outside the door, and a group of people stood in black pressure, all dressed in plain clothes.

A few people came down from the carriage in front, led by a slightly chubby, in their thirties, it was Xue Ling's second uncle Xue Jihong, Xue Jihong managed the Xue family's chores, with an unconcealable shrewdness between his eyebrows and eyes, and the woman next to him was also in her thirties, with a delicate complexion and a very pleasant look.

This woman is the aunt Wu of the second room.

Xue Ling half-raised his head, glanced at Wu, and then looked behind.

Followed by the uncle and aunt of the third room.

The third uncle's name is Xue Jiman, Xue Jiman is a little younger, the expression on his face is heartbroken, and he looks very sad.

And the woman next to her also took out a handkerchief to wipe her tears. This woman is the aunt of the third room, Qiu.

The land of Gangneung is located in the south of the country of Li.

The lord of the country of Li believes in witches, and the witch doctors are divided into two lines: the north and the south.

Among the two lines, the south is respected.

The witch doctors of the southern system are mainly concentrated in the Gangneung area.

The family of witch doctors in Jiangling is the four great families of Xue, Jiang, Qiu and Wu.

The Xue family has been at the top of the list for nearly a hundred years, and most of the witch masters in the south are in the Xue family.

And the four major families are checked and balanced by in-laws.

Xue Ling's mother is the second-ranked daughter of the Jiang family in the witch doctor family.

The second aunt, Wu, is the third lady of the fourth-ranked head of the Wu family.

And Mrs. Xue was also born in the Qiu family.

Although Xue Ling's third aunt Qiu was also born in the Qiu family, she was a side branch of the Qiu family.

But she can also be regarded as the niece of Old Lady Xue.

Among the three daughters-in-law, Mrs. Xue was the most dissatisfied with her daughter-in-law Jiang Yue, and she got along best with the third daughter-in-law who was also from the Qiu family.

Xue Ling recalled the past, when her parents passed away, she returned to the Xue family, and her heart was actually more inclined to the third room, probably because of her grandmother.

As everyone knows, there are two kinds of evil, one is superficial, and the other is dark in the heart.

The second room is superficial, but the calculation of the third room is hidden in the bottom of the heart.

Back then, the two houses were fighting, and she was a victim.

Now, she plans to make good use of the gap between the two rooms.

At this time, Qiu had already turned around and lifted the curtain of the car.

Helped an old lady out of the car.

Xue Ling stood behind and saw the familiar old man at a glance, this was Xue Ling's grandmother, Mrs. Xue, the most noble woman in the Xue family.

A head of gray hair is neatly combed back of the head.

The eyes are red, but the look on his face still maintains everyone's demeanor.

Xue Ling tried her best to ease her emotions.

Wu also turned to Old Lady Xue and said, "Mother-in-law, slow down." ”

Xue Ling's gaze fell on Old Lady Xue, and she didn't shift for a moment.

In all fairness, Xue Ling still admires her grandmother very much.

This age, this insight.

At one time, her grandmother was her most trusted relative.

Grandmother is a woman who takes care of the overall situation, and has been supporting the family alone all these years, and has always turned a blind eye to the dirty things hidden behind the glamorous glory.

In other words, grandmothers are also powerless.

Even if her grandmother is the most noble woman in the Xue family, she is just a woman after all.

Xue Ling had to admit that from her grandmother's point of view, every choice she made was for the Xue family.

His grandfather passed away in his early forties, and his father succeeded as the head of the family and became the new generation of witch masters in Gangneung.

During my father's tenure, he was diligent and diligent.

In Xue Ling's previous life, many times, his style of acting was actually imitating his father.

However, when she experienced it herself, she learned that the witch doctor family in Gangneung was eroded beyond recognition by interests, and only a glamorous shelf remained.

And now, naturally, she will no longer act like in her previous life.

In fact, my grandfather died early in middle age.

The same goes for fathers.

In her previous life, she died at the age of seventeen.

All the heads of the Xue family almost can't grow old.

There is a strange legend in the land of Gangneung.

The Xue family is still a witch and leaks the heavenly secrets, this is the price and responsibility that must be borne as a witch master.

This statement is mysterious and terrifying, but it is the most widely circulated.

However, this kind of words can only deceive the simple Xue Ling in the past.

Don't talk about it in the distance, just say that the death of my father and the death of my own life in my previous life were calculated by someone.

In the final analysis, it is nothing more than deception under interests and power.

It's hard to live, but it's not difficult.

Xue Ling retracted her thoughts and looked at her grandmother's calm face, with a looming pain hidden in her cloudy eyes.

My grandmother had a son and a daughter.

The eldest daughter, Xue, married King Jiangling as a concubine.

The second son is Xue Ling's father.

After experiencing the pain of losing a child, grandmother can still abandon everything and preside over the overall situation for the sake of the Xue family's great cause, in all fairness, the current Xue Ling can't do it.

After experiencing the death of his previous life, the current Xue Ling has no way to maintain the heart of the past.

In the final analysis, it's just that the Tao is different.

The path she wants to take is very different from the supremacy of interests pursued by the Xue family.

Grandmother cares more about everything in the Xue family, and she cares most about her mother and sister.

Grandmother can sacrifice everything for the sake of the big picture.

And she, in order to protect her mother, can also sacrifice everything.

For my grandmother, no one or anything could be compared to the interests of the family, and the choice would be the same as before.

And for her, nothing can compare with her mother.

Therefore, whether it is the head of the Xue family, or the Jiangling witch master, or the entire Xue family, for her, it is just a tool to achieve her goals.

Now she wants to do only one thing, to be a person in power who removes all obstacles, to protect the people she wants to protect, and to follow the principle of practicing medicine to help the world, that's all.

Xue Ling hung her head, she would definitely protect her mother, and no one would be merciful if she stopped her.

Grandmother, no exception.

Jiang Yue stepped forward and saluted, "Mother-in-law's Day mourns." ”

Xue Ling took Xue Yan's hand, followed the Jiang family to greet him, and knelt on the ground, "I've seen my grandmother." ”

Old Lady Xue's eyes fell on Xue Ling and Xue Yan, her eyes turned a little red, and she was silent for a moment, then she came to her senses and nodded almost inaudibly, "Get up." ”

Qiu wiped his tears on the side and said, "Poor child, get up quickly, don't cry, in the future, your third uncle and I will love you." ”
