The fire in the east was exceptionally bright, and Chi Hang and Xu Feng stood in place, glancing at each other.

If it's just a simple walk in the water and can't be so bright, it may be that people have done it.

"Who's over there?" Chi Hang looked at Xu Feng with a tilted face and asked in confusion.

Xu Feng jumped on the house quickly, looking at the light in the distance, his face changed, and he jumped down suddenly, "Oh no, it's the Xu family." โ€

"You go over and take a look," Chi Hang didn't know what the Chi family thought, and couldn't help but ask, "Is something wrong?" โ€

After receiving Chi Hang's order, Xu Feng's body disappeared into the darkness.

Chi Hang thought about it and walked towards his home alone.

When I returned home, before I reached the door of the room, I could still see the silhouette of Lin Guyu sitting on the edge of the bed from the window.

His heart gradually warmed, Chi Hang walked to the door of the room, raised his hand and knocked on the door.

"Who?" Lin Guyu's voice came from inside.

"I'm back." Chi Hang's voice couldn't help but rise.

Lin Guyu hurriedly got off the bed, put on his shoes and walked towards the door, opened the door, looked at Chi Hang who was standing outside the door, and asked worriedly, "How is it?" โ€

"Let's go inside." Chi Hang said, closed the door, hugged Lin Guyu and walked inside, "We are going to find Xu Chong's handle, and then I heard that Xu Mansion is out of water, so I will let Xu Feng go over and have a look." โ€

"So careless." Lin Guyu frowned lightly and said worriedly.

"Who knows," Chi Hang said lightly, walking to the closet on the side, "I'll go take a shower, I'm tired, if you're sleepy, you can sleep first." โ€

Lin Guyu nodded his head and said with a smile, "You go quickly." โ€

Early the next morning, when Chi Hang and Lin Guyu got up leisurely, they heard that the courtyard of the eldest master of the Xu family had been burned down, and the eldest master of the Xu family also lost his life in the fire.

Lin Guyu's brows furrowed slightly, and he didn't believe that the eldest master of the Xu family was gone like this.

Xu Feng stood next to Chi Hang and said with a serious face, "Master, I think Xu Chong just wanted to cover up his crime and deliberately did such a thing, the purpose was to get everything out of him. โ€

Chi Hang nodded his head, and he also understood Xu Chong's approach in his heart.

After all, Xu Chong is dead, who is still in the mood to hold Xu Chong responsible, even if he knows that Xu Chong lost something, this person is dead, how can it be calculated?

"What about those goods?" Xu Feng frowned slightly, "There are a lot of things, otherwise they will be sent away directly." โ€

"It's not much." Chi Hang said lightly, his eyes were calm, and he thought for a long time, "Just bury it, and make a mark when the time comes, and we will know it ourselves." โ€

Hearing Chi Hang say this, Xu Feng can think about it, but this project is a bit big.

"Is it buried in that yard?" Xu Feng asked with some uncertainty, after all, there were too many of those things.

"Well, inside the house," Chi Hang said calmly, "Do it during the day, don't do it at night, let them be responsible for digging pits, bury things yourself, don't let them see it, the fewer people who know about this matter, the more people will know." โ€

Xu Feng understood the importance of this matter in his heart, and he didn't dare to leave it to others casually.

"That's right," Lin Guyu raised his eyes to look at Chi Hang, "If the eldest master is gone, if he does white things, after a while, will the uncle of the Xu family come back from the border pass?" โ€

"No, it won't." Xu Feng's face was serious, "After all, the war at the border is tight now, and the uncle has to guard the border all the time, and it is impossible to come back." โ€

"Since he can't come back, the uncle has disappeared, maybe he will go to the border pass, and you go on the road to the border pass." Chi Hang said with a serious face, "Maybe you can get unexpected surprises." โ€

Xu Feng wrote them down one by one, and waited for Chi Hang to finish all before leaving.

Lin Guyu sat beside Chi Hang, and said casually, "By the way, if the Xu Mansion wants to hold a funeral, we will also prepare something because of the past?" โ€

"Well, this is the way to go." Although Chi Hang suspected that the eldest man of the Xu family was faking his death, he still had to do the superficial work.

Lin Guyu sighed lightly, put the veil in his hand aside, and his eyebrows were crooked, "It seems that this matter cannot be simply understood." โ€

"Gu Yu, don't worry about these things, Xu Feng and I will take care of it, you can just rest at home."

Lin Guyu was a little unhappy, "What are you talking about, in case I don't know anything, how should I answer when I turn around and people tell me?" โ€

"Brother Chi Hang," Lin Guyu said earnestly, "We are husband and wife, you can't hide many things from me, if you hide it from me, what if I say it's exposed?" โ€

Chi Hang actually just didn't want Lin Guyu to worry, but he also understood that Lin Guyu was telling the truth.

Sure enough, just a day later, the Xu Mansion spread the news of the death of the eldest lord Xu Chong.

The Xu Mansion has been hung with white strips of cloth inside and out.

When Chi Hang and Lin Guyu passed by from Xufu, they looked at the white strips of cloth, and the two of them glanced at each other, and then let the carriage leave.

Early the next morning, the Xu Mansion prepared to start the funeral and do funerals.

Chi Hang and Lin Guyu changed into white clothes early in the morning, and Lin Guyu didn't wear any jewelry on his head, but just fixed his hair with a white hosta.

Lin Guyu's eyes turned red, and he looked very sad.

When the two of them appeared in the Xu Mansion, Xu Feng had already sent the gifts over, and the three of them walked inside together.

During the time they lived in Xu Mansion, they had little intersection with Dafang.

When he went to the big house to offer incense, Lin Guyu didn't see the eldest lady, and wondered for a while, the eldest lady died, and the eldest lady didn't come out of the town?

This is all in the Xu Mansion, so naturally I want to meet the old lady.

Narcissus smiled when she saw Lin Guyu and Chi Hang coming, "Master Chi, Mrs. Chi, you can be regarded as here, these days, the old lady has been thinking about the two of you." โ€

Lin Guyu looked at Narcissus with a smile, "Narcissus girl is really getting more and more beautiful, my father-in-law and I have always wanted to come over to meet the old lady, but we just came to the capital, and there are many things to deal with." โ€

"Come in, two." Narcissus led Chi Hang and Lin Guyu towards the inside.

"Old lady, Master Chi and Mrs. Chi are here." Narcissus went in first to give a message to Meng.

Originally, the Meng family and the second wife Feng were talking about the eldest master Xu Chong, but when they heard that Chi Hang and Lin Guyu were coming, the smile on their faces brightened a little, "Go and invite them in." โ€

Chi Hang and Lin Guyu came in from the outside and took the lead in asking Meng and Feng to say goodbye, and then sat aside according to Meng's words.

Lin Guyu looked at the faces of the old lady and the eldest lady, and saw that the two of them didn't look sad at all, maybe they didn't care about Xu Chong at all, or they knew that Xu Chong was not dead at all.

It's just that Lin Guyu didn't ask this.

Originally, these people were just getting by on the surface.

"When I heard that the eldest lady was gone, I was very worried at the time, and I wanted to come over to take a look, but I was afraid of making the old lady sad, so we didn't come until now." Lin Guyu said with a melancholy expression.

At first, Feng was worried that Chi Hang and Lin Guyu were going to snatch the position of Hou Ye, and they felt uncomfortable looking at both of them.

Since Chi Hang and Lin Guyu left, she looked at these two people much more comfortable, at least dispelled the idea that the old lady wanted to give them the throne.

Feng Shi said with a smile, "Don't talk about it, the old lady couldn't get up sadly a few days ago, and now she got up because she wanted to see someone, don't make the old lady sad." โ€

"It's Gu Yu who doesn't think about it." Although Lin Guyu apologized, he did not mean to apologize on his face, but more like he said it casually.

"It's okay, it's finally okay now." Meng Shi was half-lying on the chaise longue, his eyelids drooping, but his spirit was not bad, "You don't have to worry about me, I'm fine." โ€

Speaking of this, Meng Shi looked at Lin Guyu with a smile, "A few days ago, I heard about smallpox in the capital, but you went to help control it. โ€

Lin Guyu lowered his eyes shyly, glanced at Chi Hang beside him shyly, and then said softly, "Where do I have such a great ability, my father-in-law helped me together." โ€

"Ziyu often tells me about you, saying that your medical skills are much better than his, and he seems to want to study medicine with you, but you don't accept apprentices." Meng Shi smiled and quipped, "Otherwise, I'll let Narcissus learn a little from you, and you don't have to go out to ask for a doctor if there is anything." โ€

"It's a long time to study medicine." Lin Guyu said with a smile, "I have learned it since I was a child, but I can let the narcissus learn some massage techniques, and if the old lady is tired at that time, you can let the narcissus help you knead." โ€

"That's good." Meng Shi said happily, "Narcissus, when you go back, you will follow Gu Yu to learn." โ€

A few people were talking, and a little maid came in from outside and reported, "Old lady, second wife, old man Chi, Mrs. Chi, second lady asks to see." โ€

Second Lady Wen.

Lin Guyu felt that in the entire Xu Mansion, she was also compatible with the Wen family.

"I'm afraid I'm looking for you." Meng Shi looked at Lin Guyu with a smile, then looked at the little girl who came to report, and said, "Let her come in." โ€

"Yes." The little girl answered and went out.

After a while, Wen came over in a hurry.

As soon as they came in, the Wen family saluted one by one, and Lin Gu Yumin sensed that Feng was still unhappy when he saw the Wen family.

As soon as Wen came, he sat next to Lin Guyu.

Lin Guyu felt that Chi Hang was a little uncomfortable sitting here, Chi Hang came here just to meet the old lady, so he made a look at Chi Hang.

Chi Hang hurriedly got up and dragged it, saying that he wanted to go to the front to see if he wanted to help, and left.
