"My son has been having nightmares these days." Bai Xingyan said to the old lady as if chatting, "In my dream, I was hung upside down and thrown into the well, sinking for a while and lifting it up again, which was very sad. ”

The old lady was stunned for a moment, and then said disdainfully: "It's just a nightmare, what's so strange?" ”

Bai Xingyan shook his head and emphasized again: "The nightmare I said was that I was drowning in water. Doesn't my mother think it's strange? ”

The old lady snorted angrily, "What's so strange about this? I've also dreamed of falling into the river, so what? ”

That being said, but at this time, the old lady's heart had already set off a thousand waves. Drowning, these two words are like a hammer, hammering down heavily on her, directly hitting the secret she has hidden in her heart for more than ten years.

However, his face was calm, and he was even asking Bai Xingyan: "What do you want to say?" Bai Xingyan smiled, "It's nothing, it's just a casual conversation with my mother." Let's not talk about the dream, the son remembered another thing. When I went out the other day, I saw a child who had been sunk in the water and was dead when he was fished up. It was a boy, too

I don't know which family was so ruthless and drowned the newborn child directly. Mother, do you say that such a thing is particularly infuriating? ”

The old lady's heart twitched violently again, and she could now conclude that Bai Xingyan was doubting her and testing her. What she had been worried about for more than ten years finally happened, could it be that the secret couldn't be kept?

She was a little panicked in her heart, and Mama Li interjected at this time: "Yo? Drowning a child? Or is it a boy? How could such a thing be? Where did you see it? How could someone drown a boy? The old lady was pulled back to her senses by Mama Li's surprise, and hurriedly followed: "That is, if it is a girl, there may be some truth, but the boy is ...... Alas! She sighed and waved her hand, "Maybe it's because people are in trouble, and the poor have to feed a boy."

It's not an easy task, and I have to marry a daughter-in-law in the future, and the cost is too great. In short, no one wants to have children for no reason. ”

Bai Xingyan raised his eyebrows, "Mother, if this incident happened in our house, how would you feel?" The old lady was stunned, "Our house?" Then he waved his hand, "Impossible, that is impossible." What our Bai family lacks is boys, and it's too late to hurt, how can they throw it away? Xingyan, don't talk nonsense, are you sick and confused? If you are sick, take care of it, why are you crazy when you come to me? Boys are not boys, if you have the time, you will bring your women back, take care of them, and add a few grandchildren to the old body is a serious matter. You don't want to take the Ye family and the Hong family, so the Lin family should also go home, right? This trip to my mother's house is long enough, and I look at it for a long time

She simply forgot about her husband's family. Hum! ”

She diverted the topic at the right time and finally revealed the matter.

Bai Xingyan didn't continue to be tempted, only nodded and said, "My son knows, mother rest!" ”

He got up and walked out of Jinrong Courtyard without looking back. The old lady let out a long breath until she watched him walk farther and farther away, and at last she couldn't even see a shadow, but then she became nervous again—"What does he mean by that?" She asked Mama Li, "You said, more than ten years have passed, how can Xingyan suddenly come again."

Bringing up that thing? Has he come to test me? Or should it be said to be a warning? "Mama Li actually knows better than the old lady, because she just told Bai Heran the truth not long ago. Could it be that the second lady said something? No, the second lady will not betray the old lady, so the old man's attitude ...... "The old slave thinks it must be a temptation." She told the old lady, "After all, no one has caught the real evidence of what happened back then, and the old man can't force us to plant it." Maybe he was sick and easy to think crankily, or maybe he heard the old lady praise the third master, and he was angry in his heart, so he deliberately said these words. Don't think about it, old lady, don't think about yourself

Scare yourself. The old lady wanted to believe Mama Li's words, but she understood that if she did, she would be lying to herself. Bai Xingyan would not come out like this for no reason, he must have grabbed some handle in his hands, and then something happened. Anyway, she had to be careful, once that thing couldn't be saved,

She never believed that this son, who had lost his conscience, would let her go. Coming back from the old lady, Bai Xingyan sat in the house in Heheyuan, thinking left and right. How old is Hakuzuru Ran? Can you lift yourself? It's not just about carrying it, it's about moving it from the house to the outside of the house, then going around to the back room, and then sending it back the same way after tossing

Easy? He thought about this question yesterday, and when he wanted to come back tonight, he still thought that his previous judgment was right, no matter how high the white crane's martial arts were, he couldn't hide it from the world.

But if you exclude the white crane and the dark guards, then who is left?

He shuddered suddenly when he thought of this, and a terrifying thought instantly popped up—

Could it be...... Water ghosts begging for their lives?

He was shocked by this thought and broke out in a cold sweat, and then thought that he had just gone to the old lady to test the things of the past. The old lady's performance made him unable to see the details, but subconsciously he was really thinking about the dead child, right?

Yes, otherwise why wouldn't he have encountered anything else but drowning? Why don't you meet during the day, but every night? Because ghosts can only do things at night, and ghosts can only haunt after dark.

Bai Xingyan's whole body was cold again, and he even thought that the place where he lived now was Hehe Garden! This is where Chun Yulan used to live! That child was drowned by him in this yard and then thrown to the outskirts to feed the wolves.

He was really scared this time, the ghosts and gods were even more terrifying than the white crane dyed night attack and the dark guard against the water, his whole body was shivering, and every time he moved, he was so cold that he wanted to scream.

The feeling of fever hit his body again, but he couldn't lie down and rest, he had to leave this broken place, he couldn't understand how he could have thought of moving to Heheyuan to live in the first place, wasn't this looking for death?

Bai Xingyan trembled out of the house, and loudly ordered the subordinates outside: "Go and prepare a chair and sedan chair, cover a few layers of big quilts on your head, and then go to the Bamboo Flute Courtyard to inform Aunt Ye that her father-in-law will stay with her tonight." Quick, go! ”

After a while, the subordinates ran away, and soon prepared the chair and sedan, and the top was indeed paved and thickened several layers.

Bai Xingyan almost climbed up with a rolling belt, and the subordinates carried him and trotted all the way to the bamboo flute courtyard, the posture was no different from running away, Bai Xingyan even ordered someone to seal the Hehe Garden.

The secret guard was also reactivated, and secretly followed to the side of the Bamboo Flute Courtyard to protect their master.

Xiao Ye hadn't seen Bai Xingyan for many days, and after what happened outside Fenghua Courtyard last time, she thought that Bai Xingyan would never come to her again in her life, and cried several times behind her back. But after only a few days, Bai Xingyan took the initiative to come over, and she was very happy.

Bai Huayan is also happy, as long as her father can still think of her aunt, she still has hope. So after she got the news, she went out directly, and greeted Bai Xingyan who came in a hurry outside the bamboo flute garden, and shouted happily: "Father, you are here!" He rushed forward while calling his father, wanting to show his concern for his sick father. But she rushed forward like this, and directly stopped the chair sedan chair, the person carrying the sedan chair was afraid of hitting her and didn't dare to go again, Bai Xingyan was angry when he saw the chair sedan stopped, so he raised his foot at that time and looked at Bai Huayan

and kicked it on the shoulder.

"Get out of here!" With this angry shout, Bai Huayan was kicked out directly, and the body that had just healed was kicked like this and almost didn't vomit blood, but Bai Xingyan turned a blind eye, scolded and scolded the minions to leave quickly, and hurried to the Bamboo Flute Courtyard.

Bai Huayan was shocked and annoyed, and even more afraid. According to my father's posture, I definitely didn't come to the bamboo flute courtyard with her aunt and me, right? Could it be that you are here to settle accounts? Is it here to fight?

Puzzled, she hurried back with the help of her subordinates to see what her father had done.

As soon as he entered the courtyard, he saw Bai Xingyan being helped down from the chair and sedan chair, and then grabbed Xiao Ye's hand who greeted him at the door of the house, and walked into the house quickly.

As soon as the door was closed and the candles were blown, there was no movement.

She was stunned, did she really come to sleep? Then why did you kick her just now? According to the anger that her father showed when he kicked her, shouldn't he have kicked her aunt after coming in? What does it mean to go into the house hand in hand and blow out the lamp?

Bai Huayan was stunned, and couldn't understand what was going on at all. In fact, not only did she not understand, but Xiao Ye also couldn't figure it out. Bai Xingyan came over suddenly, took her hand, and blew out the lamp when she entered the house, she subconsciously thought that she wanted to do something affectionate. So after Bai Xingyan climbed onto the bed, she untied her clothes by herself, but before she could finish untying it, she did

I heard the person on the bed already snoring faintly.

Bai Xingyan fell asleep.

Xiao Ye was stunned, and couldn't figure out what the situation was with this old man. What did you suddenly come to the bamboo flute yard for? Just lie down, close your eyes, and snore? Where is it not possible to come to her?

This night, Xiao Ye's thoughts were thousands, speculations were thousands, and he couldn't sleep. I thought that I would open my eyes until dawn, but before I knew it, my eyelids were heavy, and I fell asleep in a flickering way.

Not only Xiao Ye's family was asleep, but all the people in the Bamboo Flute Courtyard fell into a deep sleep, including the secret guards guarding the dark place, they all fell asleep at the same time, and even one lying on the tree didn't sleep well, and fell down with a thud.

Bai Heran swaggered in with Mo Yu, and Mo Yu expressed his admiration as he walked, "Miss can stun these people by blowing the sand, it's amazing." Bai Heran rubbed his hands, rubbed off the remaining sand, pointed to Xiao Ye and Bai Xingyan's house, and said, "Let's go, let's let the nightmare continue—"
