He had thought that Dan Shihan would come out of the study, but he did not expect him to come out of the Tao residence. He did not even look at Yue Xiuzhen and went straight to the study.
Yue Xiu, who was twelve feet tall, couldn't help but scratch his head. He chased her into the study unhappily.
"Dan Shihan, why are you making a face at me again?”Yue Xiuzhen stood in front of the table angrily and stared down at the man who was sitting steadily on Mount Tai.
Dan Shihan's face was solemn. He pondered for a while." Ling 'er's grave was robbed.”
"What?" A bolt of lightning struck, and Yue Xiuhao's body swayed. She glared at Dan Shihan angrily." Who is it? Who did it?"
"Hmph, can't you guess who it is?" Dan Shihan's long and narrow eyes flashed with coldness and viciousness. His hands, which were placed flat on the table, were clenched into fists, and his veins were bulging.
" They've gone too far!" Yue Xiuzhen let out a breath of anger. Those people outside were sent by the Jiang family?”
"Yes." Dan Shihan nodded." They want you to pay a hundred taels of silver as compensation and also…destroy the marriage.”
"Destroy the marriage!" " They didn't guard Ling 'er well," Yue Xiu' er sneered." I still need Ling 'er's body from them."”With that, he strode out of the study without looking back.
Dan Shihan rushed forward and grabbed Yue Xiuzhen's arm." I'll go with you."”
"No need." " No." Yue Xiuzhen shook her head." What if it's a trick to lure the tiger away from the mountain and someone comes to our house to make trouble again? What do you want them to do?"”
Dan Shihan nodded." I'll find someone to accompany you."”
"Don't worry, I'll run if I can't win. I won't fight head-on.”Yue Xiuzhen patted the slender hand on his arm to reassure him.
Dan Shihan frowned, feeling uneasy. He whispered,""You have to be careful."
Yue Xiuzhen grunted, threw away the broom, took a bun, and walked out.
Looking at Yue Xiuzhen and the two men's retreating figures, Dan Shihan returned to the study and called out to the black shadow." Go and protect her. If necessary…"
"Understood." Without saying anything, the black shadow flashed away.
………
Hu Yang Village.
It was named after the tall poplar forest in the mountains behind the village. The Jiang family was located at the back of the village, and there was a small path up the mountain beside it.
Yue Xiuzhen was led by two men to the Jiang family, but she did not see the Jiang family's parents.
"Miss Yue, please wait a moment. I'll call the Jiang family.”A man said respectfully and turned to leave the room.
Yue Xiuzhen sat on the stool and looked around. It was a yellow mud adobe house like the Dan family's. The bed, couch, table, and stool in the room were all damaged. On the couch in the inner room was a sewing basket. Inside was a half-embroidered shoe, and the embroidery needle was stuck to the cloth.
Yue Xiuyan frowned slightly and walked over to pick it up to examine it. Judging from the way she placed the needles, Mother Jiang seemed to have something urgent to attend to. She did not have time to put down the needles and thread before she left in a hurry. What made Mother Jiang so anxious?
Then, he looked at the small table beside him. There was a small pile of ashes on the edge. Curious, she stuck out her fingers to pick up some of the black ashes. The ashes on her fingertips were still warm. If he was not mistaken, something urgent happened when Father Jiang was smoking his bag. Then, he left the house in a hurry with Mother Jiang.
Something urgent happened? Could it be that the tomb had been robbed, which was why they were so anxious?
The more Yue Xiuzhen thought about it, the more confused she became. It was reasonable for her to leave anxiously after learning that the tomb had been robbed. But why was the needlework basket neatly placed on the couch?
She remembered that when her sister-in-law and sister-in-law were embroidering wedding dresses at home, the needle and thread basket would be placed closest to their bodies or placed close to their thighs. Moreover, the careless sister-in-law often fell to the ground with the basket because she was in a hurry to get up.
For some reason, her heart was beating so fast. Yue Xiuzhen put down the basket and heard a loud bang from the courtyard.
"Who is it?"
Yue Xiuzhen lifted her skirt and ran out to take a look. She was shocked.
"Yue Clan's Eldest Young Miss, we meet again. Hahahaha."
The people who had kicked the door open were none other than the five burly men who had come to the Dan family to capture her.
The man in the lead put his hands on his hips and raised his head proudly. He stared at Yue Xiuzhen and approached her step by step. "Eldest Miss of the Yue family, why didn't you live a good life in the Dan family and come to the Jiang family?”
Oh no, he had fallen into a trap.
Yue Xiu Xin retreated cautiously until she had nowhere else to go. She took a deep breath and asked," How did you know I was here?”
"What? You're asking me?" The man in the lead pretended to be surprised and widened his eyes. He suddenly laughed and turned around to his companion, giving her a thumbs up." This little girl asked me how I knew. Hahaha, come, come, tell her.”
The four burly men behind him laughed in unison and echoed,"Big Brother, don't waste your breath on her. We can't let her escape again today. Otherwise, we won't be able to bear the consequences.”
"Haha, don't worry. I won't be soft-hearted today." The man in the lead smiled cunningly and walked toward Yue Xiuzhen." Miss Yue, I didn't expect your value to increase so much after not seeing you for a few days."”
"Did that person ask you to kill me again?”Yue Xiu Xin sneered. She still remembered the mastermind that this man had told her about last time at the Dan family.
The man in the lead shook his head." I won't hide it from you today. The person who paid for your life is your biological father, the Yue Clan's Old Master.”
Yue Xiuzhen's head exploded. Did she hear wrongly? Her biological father, Yue Fen?
The man leading the group sighed regretfully." Sigh, Eldest Miss of the Yue family, what evil things have you done? Even your own father wants to kill you?”
Yue Xiu snorted." What else can I do? I'm just blocking his way to wealth."”
"You?" The man in the lead looked at the little girl in front of him with interest." I didn't expect that the money-loving Yue family's old master would be blocked by his own daughter. It's really…Hahaha, a family fighting among themselves, it's endless fun.”
"Humph, cut the crap. If you want to kill me, we'll see if you have the ability.”Yue Xiuzhen grabbed a dozen corn cobs under the wall and threw them at the men.
When the men raised their arms to block, she saw that the timing was just right, so she turned around and ran. She had just noticed that there was no wall in the backyard of the Jiang family's residence, which was a good direction to escape.
"F * ck, this little girl is quite smart.”
