Chapter 1: The Coffin Is Reborn
It's so dark, it's so stuffy—
This is Huaxi Yan's first reaction.
Her ears were buzzing, her mind was in turmoil, and there was a faint sound of a ghost crying wolf, as if it was about to pierce her eardrums.
Hua Xiyan frowned, why is the environment in her high-end residential area so bad?
Listen –
"My miserable smoke...... Why did you leave your mother behind......"
"Woo......"
"Miss...... Wake up......"
Hua Xiyan shook his head and tried to sit up with his body propped up—
"Boom!"
With a loud bang, she felt the world spin around, and a sharp pain from her forehead came from her heart.
"What sound? What sound just now? Panicked shouts could be heard outside.
The huge impact made her fall again, Hua Xiyan covered her head, grinned, and clearly felt a high swelling on her forehead.
What a pain in Jinnyima......
Hua Xiyan groped around, thinking about this dark place that is not in the middle of winter, could it be that she was kidnapped? A legendary secret room?
"Anyone?" Hua Xiyan rubbed his forehead with one hand, and knocked on the "wall" beside him with the other.
What the hell is this place?
"Anyone?" The sound of Huaxi smoke beating was a little louder.
Only the noise outside was heard, and then there was another earth-shattering shout.
"There's a ghost......
"Tricked the corpse ......"
"Wronged souls ask for their lives......"
There was a loud noise, accompanied by the cries of pain from the collision of people's bodies.
"Someone's coming!" Hua Xiyan felt that the air was getting thinner and thinner, and used all his strength to slap the wall next to him.
"Smoke...... It's my cigarette ......" A crying voice of joy came from outside, accompanied by anxiety and disbelief, "Hurry up and open the coffin!" Open it for me! ”
The line of sight gradually became wider, and it was a little uncomfortable not to be exposed to the light for a long time, Hua Xiyan squinted his eyes slightly.
"It's really my cigarette!" A haggard-looking lady said with a look of joy on her face that did not match her very differently.
Hua Xiyan looked at the strange woman, moved her lips and didn't say anything, but was hugged into her arms by her wife: "Yan'er...... It's good to be alive......"
Alive...... Just?
Why is she not good?
Through the woman's shoulder, Hua Xiyan saw the scene in the house-
Frightened, surprised, this is the expression of the people.
Classical, old, this is the scene inside the house.
Mourning hall, paper money, which is the existing furnishings.
Even beneath her feet, in a black coffin.
Hua Xi swallowed his saliva, and he really felt a little frightened.
"My cigarette ......" Mrs. raised her head, touched Hua Xiyan's face, and exhaled in pain again.
Hua Xiyan opened his mouth and was about to say something, but unexpectedly, a sharp pain in his brain came, and then he fainted again.
……
"Miss, it's windy, watch out for your body." A young maidservant girl took a cloak and gently covered Hua Xiyan's body.
"Where's my mother?" Hua Xiyan retracted her ethereal thoughts, tied her cloak at the neckline, and turned her head to ask.
"In the antechamber."
Hua Xiyan nodded and stood up: "I'll take a look." ”
Qingming has just passed, and there is a faint moist smell in the air, and even the warm breeze that should be warm in summer brings a little cold. Hua Xiyan's eyes narrowed slightly, and he tightened the cloak on his body.
She's been here for more than half a month.
When she woke up that day, she quickly accepted the fact that she had somehow put it in the coffin, and she really felt ...... There is no example of anyone who has never been seen before.
Thinking like this, the lips hooked a shallow arc, I don't know whether it is self-deprecation or sighing.
It's just a mansion of the Qipin County Order, and Hua Xiyan walked to the front hall after a short time.
"Mother." Hua Xiyan entered the house and called to the woman above.
"Here comes the smoke." The woman stood up from her seat, walked quickly to Hua Xiyan's side, and held her somewhat cold hand.
The woman is Hua Xiyan's current mother-in-law, the wife of the county magistrate of Qingxian County, Liu.
"Miss Hua is polite." A young man sitting next to him then stood up and saluted with a fist, with a warm voice and a graceful demeanor.
Hua Xiyan turned around, a soft smile on his lips, but there was a chill in his bright eyes: "Sun Gongzi is here to see me dead?" ”
Sun Muyang was stunned for a moment, and his smile was a little far-fetched: "Where is Miss Hua talking ......?"
"Since it's not, then Sun Gongzi will please." Hua Xiyan's smile remained unchanged, and he gave the eviction order with a seemingly respectful attitude.
"Formerly ......"
"There is no need to talk about the past." Hua Xiyan interrupted Sun Muyang's words, his tone was cold, and he looked reluctant to say more.
"Mrs. Hua......" Sun Muyang had to turn his head to look at Liu, and the self-blame in his tone was obvious, "The previous things are in the next place, and I hope that Mrs. and Miss will forgive me......"
Liu's smile was also very far-fetched, seeing the shallow strangulation marks that still existed on her daughter's neck, her tone was a little colder: "After this matter, I also discussed it with my master, it is indeed the highest in your mansion, we can't afford to climb high, and it is better for Sun Gongzi to come less in the future, so as not to lose his identity in vain!" ”
When Sun Muyang heard this, his face instantly became a little unbearable.
He is a dignified prefect son, and when he comes to this small county order house, he is already condescending to the noble, and this family still doesn't know what to do!
Hua Xiyan didn't want to say more, Lianbu moved lightly, walked to the side, and picked up the teacup.
"In this way, then Sun will come back to visit another day!" Sun Muyang hugged his fists and saluted, shook his sleeves and left.
Hua Xiyan's eyes narrowed slightly, looking at the figure in the brocade robe, with a cold expression.
Liu sighed, walked to Hua Xiyan's side, and said softly: "Yan'er, did you really let him go?" ”
Hua Xiyan's tone was flat: "Now, what do you think my mother can expect from him?" ”
"It's just that your marriage contract was made early in the morning, and you and his childhood sweetheart have had a very good relationship since childhood, but who knows that you will bite the gold halfway......"
"If his heart is with me in the morning, no one can take it away. From the moment he married the young lady of the Jing Zhaoyi family, he was destined to become a waste of paper! Hua Xiyan didn't have half a point of self-pity, "I'd rather be a wife from a poor family than a concubine from a high family, and besides, his prefect's family is not a high façade." ”
When he said the last sentence, Hua Xiyan's eyes were ethereal, and his voice was almost invisibly a little more hoarse.
"Mother knows that you have to be strong, if you don't want to marry and say it directly, no one will force you, why do you need to use such extreme methods, it really scares my mother to death!" Liu Shi thought of the scene of seeing Huaxi smoke hanging from the beam that day, and still had palpitations, patted his chest, and was a little frightened.
"Mother, don't worry, isn't this okay for me?" Hua Xiyan comforted the Liu family.
It's good for her, but the predecessor has already died in Huangquan.
"Yes, what a blessing! You must be good in the future, my mother can't help but be scared! Liu Shi grabbed Hua Xiyan's hand tightly, and tears seemed to well-up in his eyes.
Hua Xiyan nodded, exchanged a few more words with Liu's family, and then resigned.
