The group of people sat upright at the dining table. Chen Ahe frowned as she looked at the table full of delicious food. She seemed to have no taste. She picked up her chopsticks and said lazily,"Everyone, eat!"
As if they had received an imperial edict, everyone picked up their chopsticks.
The Yun siblings had been preparing since last night. They woke up early today, so they were naturally starving. They couldn't be reserved and wolfed down their food.
The strange thing was that Yun Tian, who usually ate the most, did not eat heartily. He slowly tore the golden jade steamed bun in his hand and stuffed it into the corner of his mouth bit by bit, but his eyes glanced at Chen Ahe from time to time.
Yun Xuezhi did not have much of an appetite either. However, when she saw Yun Tian's strange behavior, she pretended to be very hungry as well. In reality, she had been observing Yun Tian.
She faintly felt that there seemed to be an unusual relationship between Yun Tian and Chen Ahe.
Sure enough, under Yun Tian's affectionate gaze, Chen Ahe also responded. She casually stroked her hair and slowly slid her hand to her fair and tender chest, deliberately making an extremely provocative gesture.
This action was not noticed by others, but it was completely seen by Yun Xuezhi.
Yun Xuezhi's lips slowly curled into a smile. A good show seemed to be about to begin.
After breakfast, Chen Ah He said to Yun Xue Rao in a sad voice,"That day, I left the Residence of Yun in a hurry and didn't have the time to personally send her off…Now that I'm back, I want to pay my respects to Grandma's grave.”Chen Ahe's voice was filled with sorrow. Coupled with her lingering eyes, it seemed so delicate and moving.
"Of course!" Yun Xue Rao nodded, feeling the same way." It's rare for Fourteenth Grandma to be so filial. I'm sure Mother Chen's soul in heaven will feel gratified!"”
Hearing this, Chen Ahe sighed deeply. She glanced at Yun Xuezhi and said faintly,""She died with her eyes wide open. As her granddaughter, I can't sleep or eat in peace!”As she spoke, she looked at Yun Xuezhi with an even colder gaze.
As expected, they came with ill intentions! Yun Xuezhi confirmed Chen Ahe's intentions and frowned. Thinking that Xiao Cui was still in her hands, Yun Xuezhi hesitated for a moment and decided to wait and see.
"Fifth Young Lady, I want you to accompany me, is that okay?”Chen Ahe suddenly said.
Yun Xuezhi was slightly stunned. She pursed her lips and did not answer.
"Aiya, Fifth Sister, you should thank the heavens that Fourteenth Grandma didn't hold it against you! I'll go to Mother Chen's grave to pray and get her forgiveness..."
Yun Xue Rao gently pulled Yun Xue Zhi's sleeve, signaling her to nod in agreement. Her expression was full of enthusiasm.
"Alright!" Yun Xuezhi nodded.
In fact, after choking Mother Chen to death in anger, she had also felt a trace of regret. Although this woman was hateful, she did not deserve to die. Unfortunately, a huge mistake had already been made. Now that she could pay her respects in front of her grave, it could ease the uneasiness in her heart.
Seeing her nod in agreement, Chen Ahe couldn't help but smile coldly.
" But, it's a long way to get there. I'm not afraid that you'll laugh at me, but I'm afraid that the sedan bearers of the Residence of Yun will have a hard time…" Yun Xue Rao pretended to be troubled.
"Just use the servants I brought! They were the most capable servants of the Shi family!”Chen Ahe smiled very strangely." I've already prepared the things in the Shi residence. There's no time to lose. Let's hurry up and set off!”
After saying that, Chen Ahe walked out of the door anxiously.
Yun Xue Rao naturally understood and quickly ordered the servants to start preparing.
Led by Chen Ahe, eight palanquins marched toward Mother Chen's grave.
Mother Chen was buried halfway up the mountain not far from the village. It would take about four hours to walk there. At this time, the sun was shining brightly, and sitting in the sedan chair made it even more stuffy.
When the sedan finally stopped, Yun Xuechu immediately jumped down from the sedan. She was sweating profusely and could not help but mutter,""It's so hot. Why did you come here all of a sudden…"
At this moment, Yun Xue Rao also came down from the sedan chair. When she heard Yun Xue Chu's complaints, she turned around and glared at her, scaring Yun Xue Chu into immediately shutting her mouth.
Yun Xue Rao quickly walked to Chen Ah He's palanquin and bent down to help her out.
"Mother Chen is buried here! We even invited a feng shui master to take a look. He said that this place can be used for future generations!”Yun Xue Rao smiled flatteringly.
Chen Ahe got off the sedan chair, looked around, and nodded with satisfaction.""Thank you for your trouble!"
"What are you talking about? It's what I should do! "After all, Mother Chen has been working hard in the Residence of Yun for decades, but she hasn't enjoyed a single day of happiness…" Yun Xue Rao pretended to choke.
Yun Xuezhi looked coldly at Yun Xue Rao's performance and thought of how she had lost control and strangled Mother Chen to death. Her emotions were complicated.
Chen Ahe walked to Mother Chen's tombstone and ordered the servants to put away the offerings. She knelt down and muttered,""Grandma, you must bless my granddaughter and keep her safe. Please bless my master's health and the Shi family's fortune…"
After reading all this, Chen Ahe burned some paper money and heaved a long sigh of relief.
At this moment, Yun Xue Rao winked at Yun Xue Shi and whispered,"Hurry up and kowtow to Mother Chen.”
Yun Xuezhi ignored him. She walked to the grave and knelt down gently. She put her hands together and closed her eyes.
Chen Ahe looked at Yun Xuezhi coldly, her face filled with disgust.
Then, Yun Xuezhi opened her eyes and stood up.
"Aren't you going to kowtow to my grandmother?" Chen Ahe raised her eyebrows in dissatisfaction.
"No need!" Yun Xuezhi said indifferently. She had already done what she needed to do. She disdained those superficial things.
" Yun Xuezhi..." Chen Ahe gritted her teeth in hatred. Then, she seemed to remember something, so she suppressed her anger and returned to the sedan chair without saying a word.
Then, Madam Yun brought the other siblings of the Yun family to burn some paper money for Mother Chen before returning to the sedan chair.
"Let's go back!" Chen Ahe said lazily," I'm tired!”
"Rise!" The sedan chair carrier gave the order, and the sedan chair quickly moved forward. The Yun family's sedan chairs followed closely behind.
Yun Xuezhi sat in the sedan chair and felt a little strange. Chen Ahe actually didn't make things difficult for her…
Just as she was thinking, the sedan suddenly stopped. Yun Xuezhi lifted the curtain of the sedan but found that there was no one around. She was left alone here!
She got off the palanquin and looked around. She couldn't help but smile. It seemed that Chen Ahe wanted to learn Madam Yun's moves and leave her to the bandits. She probably never dreamed that she was already the leader of this mountain stronghold...
Just as she was thinking, a group of masked men suddenly surrounded her. They raised their knives and slashed at Yun Xuezhi.
Yun Xuezhi was shocked and immediately dodged agilely. However, another knife came from behind. Although she turned around in time, her arm was still cut by the blade.
"Who are you?" Yun Xuezhi covered her injured arm and asked through gritted teeth.
"Don't worry about that! In short, my master wants your life!”The leader wiped the blood off the blade.
"How much did he give you?" While Yun Xuezhi was dealing with them, she secretly dipped her hand in some blood and quickly drew the Vigor Curse on her palm.
" Of course, I'll give you a lot…" The leader raised his saber." Give me your life!" Comrades, go!"
After saying that, the group of people raised their sabers and surrounded Yun Xuezhi.
Yun Xuezhi held her breath and was about to cast a spell when she suddenly heard the Second Leader's shout,""Brothers, save the Chief!"
"Kill them!" The bandits rode their horses and charged over with sabers in their hands.
The masked killers were caught off guard and were at a disadvantage. They were quickly killed by the mountain bandits.
"Why are you guys here?" Yun Xuezhi wiped away the Vigor Curse and asked with a smile.
The Second Head wiped the blood off his face and said seriously,""Reporting to Chief, our brothers were patrolling the mountain and discovered the carriage of the Residence of Yun, so we followed it all the way here…I didn't expect that someone would want to harm Chief!”
Yun Xuezhi frowned and bent down to take off the masks of the killers one by one. The expression on her face became even more solemn.
"Eh, isn't this the sedan chair carrier who carried your sedan chair?”Looking at the face on the ground, the second-in-charge said in surprise.
It turned out that Chen Ahe had already made a plan to let him die on this mountain…
"Second Leader, do you want to make a big deal?”Yun Xuezhi raised her eyebrows and asked with a smile.
"Chief, please speak!" The Second Leader cupped his fists and said.
"The Shi Family's Fourteenth Grandmother came with me. They can't get far. Go and kidnap her and ask the Shi Family for a hundred thousand gold!”
The second-in-charge immediately beamed with joy.”He turned around and ordered the bandits to chase after him.
Watching them leave, Yun Xuezhi couldn't help but sigh. She didn't want to hurt Chen Ahe, but if she didn't scare her, she was afraid that her revenge would continue endlessly...
Not long after, the Second Leader led his brothers back. Seeing that they had returned empty-handed, Yun Xuezhi asked curiously,"What, you didn't catch him?"
The Second Head jumped off his horse and sighed heavily,""Originally, our brothers had already succeeded, but we didn't expect that the young master of the Yun family would actually pounce over and fight to the death to hold back the 14th grandmother. We thought that he was the elder brother of the chief and didn't want to hurt him, so we came back!”
Yun Xuezhi was extremely touched. Not only did this group of adorable mountain bandits risk their lives for her, but they were also always thinking about her…
"However, I did snatch a lot of valuable things from this Fourteenth Grandmother. I estimate that they can be sold for a few hundred taels of silver!”The second-in-charge took out a cloth bag, took out the jewelry inside, and weighed it in his hand.
Yun Xuezhi nodded and said softly,"Go back to the village and rest for a few days. I'll go back to deal with some matters before coming back to the mountain to see my brothers!”
The bandits nodded in unison and sent Yun Xuezhi down the mountain before returning to the village.
Yun Xuezhi did not return to the Residence of Yun immediately. Instead, she waited outside until it was dark before quietly returning to the Residence of Yun.
She drew a Qinggong spell on her hand, and with a light tiptoe, she quietly flew to the roof beam.
It was already late at night, and everyone in the Residence of Yun had turned off the lights and fallen asleep. Yun Xuezhi was quietly walking on the roof, as if she was looking for something.
