Dan Shihan's eyes moved." Wife.”
"Dan Shihan, are you willing to take Ling 'er as your wife?”
It was as if a thunderclap had exploded on the ground, and the Yue Clan's elders and children were all charred on the outside and tender on the inside, golden and crispy.
Everyone looked at the silent man. In the desolate autumn, a fiery red maple leaf fell on his shoulder and drifted down his snow-colored robe. He remained unmoved, his long and narrow phoenix eyes focused and focused on the woman at the door. She was used to his usual indifference, but she found that he was as calm as still water at the moment, without even a trace of fluctuation.
Dan Shihan stood in the autumn wind. The momentary silence around him almost drove him crazy. He thought he was hallucinating, but the reactions of the people around him told him that it was true. Yue Xiu Xin really asked that question.
Yue Xiu Xin only smiled coldly at Dan Shihan's silence and spat out two words in disdain,""Coward."
"Xiuya, I'm not a coward. But…I can't marry Ling 'er." Dan Shihan looked at Yue Xiuyan seriously. He couldn't marry Yue Xiuling, not even her corpse. Because…
"Shihan, you did the right thing. As long as you can stop Xiu Yan, I will give you double the money and food every year. How is it?" Yue Fen patted the man's shoulder in satisfaction. Although he had already lowered his voice, the Yue family members standing behind him might not have heard him, but Yue Xiu Xin and the Wang family heard him clearly.
The Wang family smiled triumphantly, while Yue Xiuzhen clenched her fists in disappointment.
"Father, from now on, I don't want a needle or a thread from the Yue family, but I want to take Ling 'er's corpse away.”Yue Xiu's eyes widened in anger, filled with resentment.
Yue Fen was just about to open his mouth to refuse, but the Wang family beat him to it.
Madam Wang clapped her hands and said with a smile,"As long as the young miss keeps her word, I can give you Ling 'er's corpse. But…you have to have the strength to move it away.”
" I'm Yue Xiu Xin." Yue Xiu Xin gritted her teeth and looked around." Today, I, Yue Xiu Xin, have nothing to do with the Yue Clan anymore. I'll definitely take revenge for Ling 'er in the future. I hope Master Yue won't run away in fear.”
"Hmph, you should live a good life after marrying a pauper. What great future can you have? You still dare to speak arrogantly to take revenge?”Yue Fen was furious and wished he could call a servant to tie up this unfilial daughter and beat her up in the woodshed.
Yue Xiuzhen gritted her teeth and walked down the stone steps with her head held high." I'll be back in an hour to carry Ling 'er's body."”
"Hurry up and get someone to carry it." Madam Wang was impatient as if she was chasing away a fly.
Yue Xiu 'er rolled her eyes and strode toward the gate of the Yue family.
………
At the Yue family's main entrance.
Yue Xiuzhen stood on the stone steps at the door in plain clothes and took off a silver bracelet on her wrist. This was the betrothal gift that Dan Shihan had given her when they got married, and it was also the only valuable thing.
The commoners who were coming and going slowly gathered around, looking curiously at what the Eldest Miss of the Yue Clan wanted to do.
Yue Xiuzhen took a deep breath. Seeing that more and more people had gathered, she mustered up her courage and raised the silver bracelet in her hand. She shouted,"My fellow villagers, my sister, Yue Xiuling, the second daughter of the Yue family, died a few days ago. Because she was still unmarried, she would be thrown into a mass grave after she died.”
When the commoners heard what she said, they retreated one after another. What was the meaning of this? Were they supposed to carry an orphan to a mass grave?
"I'm not going, I'm not going. Carrying an orphan to a mass grave is bad luck for the rest of my life. No one is willing to do this." A rough-looking man waved his hand and left with two pig heads.
Yue Xiuzhen took a deep breath. It seemed that she couldn't find anyone to carry the coffin. Then…
"My fellow villagers have misunderstood. I didn't want to find someone to carry my sister to the Mass Grave. I just wanted to find a marriage for my dead sister.”
His words were like throwing a bomb into the crowd. The onlookers were shocked. They all came forward and stared at Yue Xiu Xin curiously.
"Miss Yue, are you stupid?" asked an auntie who was buying vegetables. I've lived for fifty years, but I've never heard of anyone finding a relative for the dead.”
"Isn't that so?" A woman who was carrying a child laughed." I've never heard of any family's son marrying a dead person as his wife.”
The commoners laughed and looked at Yue Xiuyan as if they were having fun.
Yue Xiu Xin was not discouraged. She smiled bitterly and sighed,""Fellow villagers, you should also know that the rules set by the ancestors are that orphans cannot be buried. My sister died unjustly. She passed away at the age of a flower. As her sister, I couldn't protect her, so I couldn't just watch her die and not be able to rest in peace. Therefore, I beg all the villagers, who is willing to marry my sister? I am willing to be a cow and a horse for the rest of my life to repay your kindness.”
"Young miss, it's not that we don't want to help, but…who would be willing to marry a dead man?”The auntie who was buying vegetables spread her hands.
Everyone nodded. They all felt that it was ridiculous to propose marriage to a dead man.
Yue Xiuzhen was indecisive and in a dilemma.
"Young miss, I'm willing!"
A young man ran out of the door behind him. He looked to be thirteen years old and was dressed like a manservant. There was a centipede scar on his right face from the corner of his eye to the corner of his lips.
The young man knelt on the ground and cupped his hands." Eldest Miss, I was saved by Second Miss. Today, the second miss died unjustly. This lowly one is willing to marry her.”
"Brat, come back here." A plump old woman ran out and grabbed the young man kneeling on the ground." I didn't pay attention and let you sneak out." Let's go back!"
The young man stubbornly broke away from the old woman's hand and shouted anxiously,"Mother, how can you be so ungrateful?”
