Riding the Pheonix Chapter 49: Shallow edge


The carriage stopped at the corner gate, and Ah Wan got out of the carriage earlier.

Mingwei sat in the car, unconsciously tugging on her sleeves.

"Miss." Sujie was a little flustered.

Mingwei couldn't care less about comforting her, her heart was heavy, she didn't dare to think about it, and she didn't want to think about it.

Yang Shu was unwilling to risk letting her go yesterday. Knowing that something happened to the Ming family, he simply let her go. This meant one thing: if something happened to the Ming family, he wouldn't have to worry about her tipping off the news.

What kind of thing can give him such a guarantee?

Not long after, Ah Wan came over and called her: "Miss Ming, the arrangements have been made."

Mingwei got out of the car, changed sedans with Sujie, and quietly returned to Yufangyuan avoiding people.

Today's Yu Fang Yuan is particularly quiet. The servants who used to come and go are all gone.

When Mingwei got off the sedan, the first thing he saw was Duofu. His eyes were red, as if he had just cried.

"Miss!" Seeing her, Duofu rushed forward and shed tears again.

Mingwei's heart sank to the bottom, and Sujie asked repeatedly: "What happened? Why are you crying?"

She didn't wait for Duofu to answer, and walked towards Mrs. Mingsan.

One foot is deep and the other is shallow. The distance is not long, but it feels like we have walked for a long time.

Mrs. Mingsan’s room was full of people. The ladies were talking in low voices, and the maids and servants were wiping their tears.

Seeing Ming Wei come in like a wandering spirit, Bing Xin, who was crying, shouted: "Miss!"

Then he burst into tears.

When she cried, it was like sparks splashing in oil. The whole room started crying, and suddenly there was a loud cry of sorrow.

"Xiaoqi!"

The second, fourth, and sixth ladies were all present, and when they saw her coming, they all stood up.

The second lady stepped forward and hugged her: "Good boy, don't come here, go back to the house first, be good."

The fourth lady also said: "Where is Duofu? Come and take your young lady back quickly."

Mingwei stood still.

The second lady tried to take her out: "It's a mess here, you go back first and be obedient."

However, there seemed to be roots under her feet, and the second lady couldn't push them away at all.

"Get out of the way." She said softly.

The second lady’s wrist was held by her, and she was pushed away gently and deftly without seeing how hard she used it.

"Xiaoqi!"

The fourth lady also came to stop her, but Mingwei made a wrong step and passed her.

"Miss!" Mother Tong stood guard in front of the bed, with tears streaming down her face.

Mingwei stood still in front of the bed and lowered his gaze.

Mrs. Mingsan was lying there with her eyes closed, as if she was asleep.

The charming and bright face, with twisted bruises, lost its vitality, like a sculpture.

Mingwei slowly knelt down, took Mrs. Mingsan's cold hand, and gently placed it on her face.

She remembered what she had just said last night.

In this life, she accepted her love when she opened her eyes, and they were destined to be related as mother and daughter.

Who expected it or not.

Still like this, I lost it in just a few months.

I still remember that after she became wise, she once asked Master why she didn’t have a mother.

Master said that the gathering of people in this world is all about fate. The longer the companionship between some people is, the deeper the fate will be; the shorter the companionship will be, the shallower the fate will be.

Parents and children, couples, and close friends are all like this.

She just has a weaker relationship than others.

Resurrected in the body of Miss Ming Qi, she thought that she finally had a deeper relationship in this life.

The result...

"Madam." Mother Child wailed, "Open your eyes and take a look! Why are you willing to abandon the young lady and go alone!"

Mingwei raised his head and looked at the deep marks on Mrs. Ming’s neck.

"Mommy." Her voice was so calm that she said, "Last night, my mother was fine. Why did she suddenly surrender?"

Obviously before she left, Mrs. Mingsan still thought that after this trip, she would take her to the capital so that the mother and daughter could live a good life.

Obviously, I have hope.

Obviously still struggling to survive.

Why do you suddenly seek death?

Nanny Tong heard her question and cast an angry look at Madam Six.

The Sixth Lady raised her head uncomfortably.

When the second lady saw something bad, she quickly stopped: "Mother Tong! The third brother and sister are here, don't talk nonsense!"

Nanny Tong sneered: "I haven't said anything yet. How do you know it's nonsense? God's law is clear. If you don't do something wrong, why can't you say anything?"

Seeing that the situation was not good, the fourth lady immediately called her close confidant: "Mother Yu, the third sister-in-law has just gone. What does the house look like in a mess? Hurry up and tell them to do something!"

Aunt Yu understood this and drove all the maids and servants out of the house. She also called the ladies in charge of Yu Fangyuan to give them something to do - there were a lot of funeral matters!

In a blink of an eye, only a few ladies, Mingwei and Tongma were left in the room, and even Bing Xin Sujie and Duofu were blocked outside.

The second lady came to persuade: "Xiaoqi, my aunt is very sad to know that you have suddenly lost a loved one, but this is really a mistake, no wonder..."

"Who are you trying to make peace with, Second Madam?" Aunt Tong's sharp voice interrupted her, "You are so anxious to clear up the relationship!"

Nanny Tong is the wet nurse of Mrs. Mingsan, who is different from ordinary servants. The second wife didn't want to argue with her~IndoMTL.com~but she became annoyed after she made rude remarks several times.

"Mother Tong, this is not a nice thing to say. The three younger brothers and sisters are all gone. Talking about it again will inevitably hurt her reputation. What's more, Xiaoqi is here and she is from a girl's family. It is easy to say this in front of her. Of?"

Nanny Tong just sneered and refused to give in: "The lady is the madam's daughter. The madam died in an unknown way. How can we not let her know? If we just let it go like this and others hear the rumors in the future, what should the lady do? Mother argued?"

The second lady frowned: "Why is it so unclear? Aunt Tong, I know you are very sad, but this..."

"Second Aunt." Mingwei's voice interrupted her.

She carefully put Mrs. Mingsan's cold hands into the quilt, stood up, and looked at the three elders in front of her.

"How did my mother die? The truth is out there, and it won't change just because of a few words from others. She gave birth to me, raised me, and loved me all my life. Shouldn't I be told about it? If even the mother If death can be blurred, then I have wasted my life as a human being. Even if her death has damaged my reputation, I should admit it. She is my mother, good or bad, I will admit it!"

The second lady was startled: "Xiaoqi..."

The Miss Mingqi in her impression was still the stupid idiot. After we talked about it, I just felt that her speech became more organized. It's not clear what his temperament is.

Now that I saw her being so arrogant and speaking so rationally, I was speechless and didn't know how to respond to her.

Although she was the one who took part in the funeral arrangements, she was not the one who really made the decision in this family!

While I was in trouble, the voices of the maids came from outside: "Old Madam!"

Everyone in the room looked towards the door and saw Mrs. Ming coming.

She was followed by the Second Master and the Fourth Master, with someone in between.

Looking closely, it’s the Sixth Master!
