The Stepmother is Unkind - Chapter 97
The time Nanke and Yan Jun agreed on is tomorrow night.
Yan Jun’s mood was ups and downs, and he tossed and turned all night. In these short days, he has been receiving various shocks.
Originally, he just planned to fight and lead his clan to live a good life, but he first recruited a big Buddha that was difficult to serve.
Later, they got a sum of money that they couldn’t even imagine in their life, and they are still floating under their feet.
After experiencing great sorrow and joy, it was not thorough. One end was a wealthy family with deep roots, and the other end was the Xie family who intuitively felt unusual. There were a bunch of incomprehensible thoughts in his mind, and he didn’t know what to do at all.
If he only wants to solve the most urgent thing, he… he wants to go to ask Nan Ke to marry Nan Ke openly…
He wants to marry…
Yan Jun’s head was full of this desire, and he couldn’t sleep, so he squatted at his mother’s door before dawn.
When Mrs. Qu got up, she was startled when she saw such a big man standing at the door, and couldn’t help slapping him, “What are you doing!”
With a pair of dark circles under his eyes, Yan Jun raised his head and said blankly, “Ma, please help me to propose a marriage.”
Mrs. Qu was shocked, grabbed his ear and lifted it up, “Do you say it again?!”
Yan Jun stood up along her strength, afraid that she would have to pull her ears, so he didn’t stand up straight, so he half-squatted and said, “I want to propose a marriage.”
Madam Qu was overjoyed, let go of his ears, and hurriedly asked, “Who is it? You’ve been away for half a year, and you’re about to get married!”
Yan Jun said: “Nanke.”
“Who is Nan Ke?” Mrs. Qu was confused, “There is no surname Nan…Nan in our village?!”
Mrs. Qu suddenly recalled, “Why do you go to climb their high branches, can they see you? No way.”
Yan Jun hurriedly explained: “No, I… Nan Ke and I are in love. If we want to get married seriously, of course we have to propose.”
Mrs. Qu pulled her face, “You make it clear.”
Yan Jun talked about the process of his acquaintance with Nan Ke in a half-covered way. He was afraid that his mother would not like it, so he did not say that Nan Ke ran away with him.
Mrs. Qu still did not smile, and turned to persuade him: “People in their village dislike the poor and love the rich. When you propose a marriage, you just show your face and teach others to step on it. Don’t go, it’s not suitable.”
“How come? Nan Ke said that the people in her village are very kind.”
“You don’t understand.” Mrs. Qu turned around and left, ignoring it.
Yan Jun was in a hurry, he wanted to propose a marriage today, “Ama, why can’t you do it? Even if it doesn’t work, I have to give up…”
When Mrs. Qu heard it, she turned back and said, “The dowry must also be prepared. Let’s prepare the dowry first.”
Nan Ke was about to elope tonight. He temporarily went to the county to prepare the dowry, and it was really too late to go back and forth, so now it comes to whether he should bow his head to the Xie family.
Take the benefits first, and think about the rest later.
This was all learned from the maid of the Xie family, Yan Jun gritted his teeth and said, “Ama, I’m ready, you just have to accompany me.”
Seeing that he had to hit the wall, Mrs. Qu agreed. She just looked at her son with anticipation and anxiety, not at all the joy she had when she first learned about it.
Yan Jun went to the bamboo building to find the maid of the Xie family.
It was too early and Yin Mingyu was still asleep when Jin’er called her up, her eyelids still half-closed, “What’s the matter?”
“Madam, Yan Jun said he wanted to see you.”
Yin Mingyu suddenly woke up, “It’s only been one night, so I figured it out?”
Yin’er came over with her clothes in her arms, and said beamingly, “Miss, if he tells the truth, can we leave today? It’s really inconvenient to be here. The maid wants to go to the prefecture to see the Nanmeng beauty earlier.”
Yin Mingyu smiled while putting on his clothes: “I saw one first, who is exactly the same as the one in the painting, just a little more tender…”
She said, suddenly stopped.
Jin’er Yin’er wondered, “What’s wrong, lady?”
“Find out that “Nanmeng Beauty Picture” and let me take a look.”
Jin Er immediately went to find it and gave it to her.
Yin Mingyu unfolded the scroll, carefully looked at the figure for a moment, and raised his hand to cover the lower half of her face.
These eyebrows and eyes are almost the same, but she removed her hand and looked at the painting again, and felt that it was not very similar to Nan Ke, because the temperament was very different, so if she didn’t directly compare it, she wouldn’t think much about it.
“Is it related?”
But if there is a relationship, a Nanmeng beauty is sent to the new governor, and a Nanmeng beauty is going to elope… Is the life of Nanmeng beauty so twists and turns?
Yin’er combed her hair, and when she saw the figure behind her, she said enviously, “When will the maid see it with her own eyes…”
Yin Mingyu put away the painting and said casually, “I have the opportunity to show you.”
After finishing her arrangement, she walked downstairs. As soon as Yan Jun saw her, he immediately sat up on the stone and learned the manners of the Han people: “Girl Jin’er.”
Yin Mingyu smiled and said, “Brother Yan, have you thought about it?”
“not yet.”
“Then you…” Come to call early?
Yan Jun smiled slyly, “It wasn’t from Miss Jin’er. Can’t you just take a risk if you can’t listen to a few good words from others? I want to propose a marriage first. Can Miss Jin’er help me?”
Yin Mingyu: “…” Pretty.
Yan Jun asked honestly, “Girl Jin’er? I’m a little anxious. For people like you, if you miss one or two things, it’s enough for us countrymen to learn.”
Why did I suddenly get enlightened…
Yin Mingyu glanced at him melancholy and said, “Our young lady’s things are not easy to take.”
Yan Jun didn’t speak, just scratched his head, “I really can’t help it, I really don’t want to trouble you.”
“Okay, wait a minute, I’ll go ask our young lady.”
Yin Mingyu turned around with a smile on his face, shook his head slightly, and went upstairs to instruct Jin’er to prepare some dowry gifts for Yan Jun, “Remember to keep the account.”
Jin Er responded, “Yes, don’t worry.”
When Yin’er heard that Yan Jun was going to propose a marriage, her face was full of “want to go”, and she looked at Yin Mingyu eagerly, “Ma’am, let’s take a few people to protect us, let’s go and see?”
Yin Mingyu drank tea slowly, “How many people do you want to bring, so they can agree?”
“You’re Jin’er, I’m Yin’er, and it’s not the young lady who went out. Besides, you and your maid have not walked out of this bamboo building less often. Now it’s just a matter of walking further. They take our things, which is a little small. You have to agree to your request, right?”
“You go and talk to Yan Jun, what’s the use of talking to me?” Yin Mingyu took a good time, “I won’t help you.”
Seeing that she didn’t object, Yin’er really went down to talk to Yan Jun. Although Yan Jun didn’t say it clearly, his behavior was already biased. He hesitated a little and agreed to go.
Yin Mingyu used Yin’er’s light to let the guards drive two carriages and head to Nanmeng Village.
At the same time, the Nanyue Prefecture Ya-
Xie Qin and Chu He discussed the current signs repeatedly, and made some reasonable guesses, thinking that those two ethnic groups are most likely to be so arrogant and domineering in South Vietnam.
And they choose this drastic method at this moment, maybe there is something urgent to do.
It’s a pity that there are too few people they can fully trust. Half of the guards that Xie Qin brought over were sent to Yin Mingyu and Xie Ce. The rest of the guards had to keep some to protect Xie Qin. It’s really inconvenient to go back and forth.
Chu He used to be an unruly person. Recently, the folding fans are not used to be chic, but to fan the irritability in the heart. “If Qi Jiedu can give some help, we will not be so tied at this time.”
The envoy Qi Jiedu was in charge of the entire Lingnan region, and he had military power in his hands, and he had a lot of power.
They naturally went to Qi Jiedushi, but Qi Jiedushi spoke very well and was willing to lend them 300 soldiers, but that was all.
He also complained about the embarrassment and advised them not to act rashly.
The reason for the real restraint was that it was not Qi Jiedu’s envoy, but Xie Qin, as a parent and official, who could not put the stability of Great Ye and the safety of the people at risk.
Chu He folded the fan and said, “I am very suspicious now, why did Your Majesty let you come to Lingnan alone…”
Xie Qin did not delve into the matter, but still thought about the business and said: “The power of the two ethnic groups is deeply rooted, and the entire Nanyue officialdom does not know how many of them are there. We are temporarily inconvenient to act rashly.”
“If we take back my younger brother and sister and Xie Ce, but don’t move them, where is the authority? I’m afraid it will be more difficult to make any moves in South Vietnam in the future, and the situation you opened up earlier will be in vain.”
“Perhaps…” Xie Qin raised his head, “You can hit with random fists.”
Chu He was puzzled, “What do you mean?”
Xie Qin said, “Second Mother.”
In the past, his wife was a woman in the back house to him, and he needed to be protected under his wings. The affairs of the officialdom outside the house had nothing to do with the female family.
But Yin Mingyu occasionally said a word, which often taught him to be enlightened, so he began to want to talk to her.
And her emergency response, although unexpected, was decisive and witty enough. If she still looked at the female family members in the past, it would be too narrow.
Their husband and wife can clearly work together.
“You and I can’t predict Erniang’s behavior, and presumably others can’t predict it either.” Xie Qin raised the corners of his mouth with a smile in his eyes, and then said seriously, “Now we need to find a way to put people in, find out, and collect evidence. In the future, even if you send troops, you can become famous, and you will be hit with a single blow.”
Chu He’s folding fan slowed down a little and said, “That’s the only way it can be.”
“Dong dong dong—” A knock sounded on the door.
“Lang Jun, report something.”
“Come in.”
The guard walked in in a hurry, clasped his fists and said, “Your Majesty, your subordinates found a suspicious person near Yanzu Village yesterday, followed him all the way to Butterfly Valley, and was about to follow up to check, when they found a suspicious person coming out of Butterfly Valley. The convoy, roughly estimated to be dozens, headed southeast.”
Xie Qin and Chu He looked at each other, and Chu He immediately got up, “I’ll go check it myself.”
“Be careful.”
Chu He nodded, and then went out with a group of Xie family guards.
The proposing group drove to the vicinity of Nanmeng Village.
The road became smoother and smoother as he walked. Yin Mingyu looked out through the carriage window and saw that there was a vast field of fertile fields in front of him. There were a few working people in the fields, and there was a sense of relaxation between the ups and downs.
Looking further into the distance, Zhulou Village stands beside the mountain, and at the entrance of the village, a huge pink canopy is extremely beautiful.
The carriage slowly drove over a wide stone bridge, with green hills, green water, fields, flowers and trees against each other, a very beautiful scene.
Especially when the carriages passed by, and there were a few pedestrians passing by, the old ones were kind and good-looking, the young ones were beautiful, no one was in a hurry, no one looked worried, and it was Zhong Lingyuxiu.
When I was reading travel notes, all the imaginations about the sunrise of the Peach Blossom Spring and the daily income and the rest were satisfied by the sight in front of me.
Yin’er sighed directly: “It’s so beautiful…”
Mrs. Qu glanced at the fertile fields outside the carriage and said, “The Nanmeng Clan’s land wasn’t originally here, it was moved here thirty or forty years ago.”
Yin Mingyu asked, “All the fields belong to the village? Sure enough, they are rich.”
Mrs. Qu said, “The daughters of their village are good-looking and well-married. I heard that many of them marry into the prefectures. The betrothal gifts are very generous, but they are not wealthy.”
Yin Mingyu and Yin’er looked at each other and thought of the Nanmeng beauty in the painting. Could it be that they suffered because of being too beautiful after they got married?
Then the two of them listened to Madam Qu and sighed: “It’s still the daughter of the patriarch, how can a poor family like us climb up.”
The carriage drove to the entrance of the village, and when they reached the flower tree, they found that the crown of the tree was open, with a diameter of two feet.
Ben was sitting around the stone table playing chess and chatting with a few old people under the tree. When he saw their carriage, he stopped. One of the old men with white hair and fairy style asked kindly, “Dare to ask where the guests are from?”
Yin Mingyu and others got out of the car to speak.
In order not to be conspicuous, the guards changed into the clothes of the Yan clan people. Yin Mingyu and Yin’er also wore very low-key clothes, and they were not the protagonists of proposing marriage, so they quietly hidden behind the crowd.
Yan Jun came to propose a marriage, so he naturally wanted to express himself. He stepped forward to greet him, and said geekly, “We are from the Yan clan village, Yan Jun, come to visit the Nan Patriarch.”
“Yan clan?” The old man’s tone was a little strange, like a hint of contempt, he glanced at their carriage, and then said calmly, “I am the clan elder in the village, for the safety of the village, we cannot let outsiders come and go at will, let me know what I mean first. .”
The old man spoke Chinese very well.
Yin’er leaned into Yin Mingyu’s ear and whispered, “Why do you look like a scholar…”
Yin Mingyu replied softly: “I have a good life, and it is normal to want to study and find another career.”
When they were talking quietly, Qiantou Yanjun said, “I want to ask Nan Ke to marry Nan Ke.”
After he finished speaking, the flower tree was silent, and the old people looked at each other in dismay, and then looked at Yan Jun with a scrutiny.
Yan Jun thought that they were looking at the people who came to ask for marriage from the elders in the village.
At this time, the clan elder who spoke earlier said kindly: “Then you may have to come here for nothing. Nan Ke has already been engaged and will be married in three days.”
“what?!”
Yan Jun was shocked.
Mrs. Qu didn’t expect her son Baba to ask her to propose marriage, but the girl was about to get married soon, so she hurriedly dragged him and asked in a low voice, “What’s the matter?”
Yin Mingyu was at the back, looking up at the village in front of him. There was only a branch with flowers of the same color as the flower tree sticking out in the village, and there were no other festive arrangements for the newlyweds.
Perhaps, the customs of this ethnic group are different from those of the Han people, but they also learn Chinese, and they are not affected…
Moreover, Nan Ke wants to elope. She is not happy with this marriage, right?
However, the nature of marriage contract and marriage is different. It is estimated that it will be unsuccessful today. Yin Mingyu has already planned to go back the same way.
However, Yan Jun is suddenly stubborn, full of heart that Nan Ke wants to escape from marriage and run away, there must be a reason, and still proposes to go to the village to meet Nan Patriarch.
He didn’t say that he had anything to do with Nan Ke, but when several old people thought that Nan Ke had only gone out yesterday, they became suspicious, and even changed their faces.
“What are you seeing? Get to know each other, hurry up and leave!”
“Don’t ruin Nanke’s reputation!”
“Leave the village!”
Yan Jun explained: “I don’t mean to ruin Nanke’s reputation. I didn’t know she was going to get married before…”
“Walk!”
The old people did not listen to her explanation, and their attitude was extremely tough, and even suddenly became extremely bad.
They suddenly changed their faces, and Yin’er couldn’t react, so she was stunned.
Yin Mingyu felt more and more discord in his heart, and frowned slightly.
Madam Qu grabbed Yan Jun’s wrist and persuaded, “Let’s go back, everyone is going to get married.”
Yan Jun’s feet were pinned to the spot, motionless.
At the entrance of the village, when a young girl heard this, she rolled her eyes and hurried to the contiguous bamboo buildings in the innermost part of the village.
She ran fast, and it didn’t take long for her to reach her destination and break into a bamboo building.
Nan Ke hurriedly hid a package behind him and cursed with a guilty conscience, “What are you in a hurry for?!”
The little girl gasped and said, “Sister Nanke, a group of people came from the village and outside the village, saying that they came to propose marriage to you.”
Nan Ke sneered: “What kind of kiss did you mention to me, go and play elsewhere, don’t make trouble with me.”
“No.” The little girl gasped for a little while. “That person said that he is from Yanzu Village. Sister Nanke, where is Yanzu Village?”
Nan Ke raised his head suddenly, and asked in a panic, “Yan clan? He said he belonged to the Yan clan?”
The little girl nodded, “Yes, the grandpas seem to be very angry.”
Nan Ke held the package tightly with her hands behind her back, her eyes flashing in panic, it should be Yan Jun, she didn’t expect Yan Jun to come to propose marriage, how could she come to propose?
He is the next patriarch of the Yan Clan, so he attaches great importance to the clan, shouldn’t he go to the old place at night and tell her not to go with her?
How can you come to propose a kiss…
“Sister Nanke, what’s wrong with you?”
The little girl reached out and touched her shoulder.
Nan Ke shivered, came back to his senses, got up and ran out.
The little girl only felt that she ran out like a gust of wind, and she was puzzled. Seeing that there was a scattered package under the bamboo bed, it should have been taken by Sister Nan Ke just now, so she squatted down and picked it up.
As she collected it, she muttered strangely, “What is Sister Nanke doing with old clothes?”
On the other side, Nan Ke hurried to the entrance of the village, saw that Yan Jun was being pulled by an old woman, and hurried over.
Yan Jun saw her, his eyes moved, and then darkened again, but he didn’t dare to ask to ruin her reputation.
However, he is not a person who can control his expression very much. Even if he doesn’t say it, he can easily be seen by old people.
The clan elder looked at Nan Ke expressionlessly, his tone was calm but mixed with gloom, and asked, “Nan Ke, what’s the matter with you and him?”
Nan Ke also gave a shock to the clan elder’s unusual expression, but only when they were amiable elders and they were too angry, so he still begged closely: “Grandpa, I’ll let him leave now, you do not be angry.”
After she finished speaking, she turned to face Yan Jun, her eyes filled with complex emotions such as guilt and powerlessness, and persuaded him, “Yan Jun, go back, I can’t do it with you, stop making trouble…”
If she is ruthless, Yan Jun can still give up, but she seems to be involuntarily, and Yan Jun can’t let go, “Nan Ke…”
Nan Ke made a cruel look and pushed him, “Go away!”
Yan Jun taught her to push her shoulders back and take a few steps back.
Yin Mingyu was behind, watching the change in Nan Ke’s eyes, thoughtfully.
At this time, an old man came out behind the clan elder and said sarcastically, “I don’t know where you, a poor Yan clan person, got the carriage, but you have to know yourself, Nanke wants to marry and live a good life, how much can you pay? Dowry, still dare to come to propose marriage?”
Not only him, but several old people looked at Yan Jun’s clothes with contempt. The clothes were new, but the fabric was rough and worthless at first glance.
Nan Ke looked at the elders in a daze as if he had heard some unbelievable words. They said… Good day?
And Mrs. Qu had a burning face, pulling her son as if begging: “Yan Jun…”
Yan Jun lowered his head, heard his mother’s voice, turned around to see that she was humiliated because of him, felt guilty, closed his eyes and opened his eyes, “Ma, let’s go.”
The others had to return to the carriage with the dowry gifts.
Before Yin Mingyu got into the carriage, he finally glanced back at Nan Ke’s blank expression, lowered his eyes to hide his thoughts, and entered the carriage.
The sound of the wagon wheels getting further and further away, Nan Ke twitched the corners of his mouth and moved his cheeks, and asked confidently, “How can it be a good day? You said that on purpose to drive Yanjun away, right?”
The clan elder and others looked at her coldly.
Nanke’s smile grew wider, and he convinced himself: “I know, I said this for the sake of the reputation of the girls in the clan. We are weak and we have no choice but to be slaughtered by others…”
The clan elder asked, “Where did you go yesterday? Did you meet that Yan clan man? What do you want to do?”
Nan Ke’s smile froze and denied: “I just went out for a walk, I didn’t see him.”
The clan elder did not believe it at all.
The entrance of the village, from the beginning, gradually surrounded by some people, the clan elder ordered: “Take her back.”
The two young men came over hesitantly, apologized, grabbed Nan Ke’s arm and took her away.
Nan Ke was dragged, and his expression became more and more at a loss.
A group of people returned to her house, and the clan elders and others also came together.
Hearing the movement, the patriarch came out and saw this scene, and asked respectfully and doubtfully, “Uncle, what is this for?”
The clan elder gave Nan Ke a cold look, and said directly, “You’d better let someone search her house.”
Nanke panicked and couldn’t help struggling.
The clan elder has great prestige in the clan, and the clan leader has to listen to him, so he can only teach people to search on the bamboo building.
Moments later, the searcher came down with a package.
When the clan elder and others saw the package, they were immediately angry and asked Nan Ke, “What else do you want to say? Where are you going to pack the package?”
Nan Ke kept shaking his head, tears streaming down his face, “I don’t have it, the package is just clothes, no…”
“Snapped!”
Money and valuables…
Nan Ke covered his face and slowly raised his head, staring at the clan elder dumbfounded.
The patriarch froze and bowed his head cowardly.
The clan elder said coldly: “For the sake of the whole clan, it is natural to make sacrifices. But in the future, you will have silk and satin, delicious food, and it is not a sacrifice.”
Of course she is willing to sacrifice to save her clan…
Nan Ke slowly looked at the clansmen and saw that they avoided her eyes. At that moment, their faces were suddenly terrifying, and it seemed as if something was broken in her heart, and the tears could no longer flow out.
The patriarch did not dare to meet his daughter’s eyes, so he walked up to the patriarch and said, “Uncle, I will lock her up myself, and I won’t allow her to come out until I get into the carriage.”
He also personally took a rope and tied his daughter’s wrist to prove his determination.
Nan Ke didn’t respond, stood there blankly, and was pushed into the room blankly.
The clan elders and the clan people then dispersed.
Nan Ke sat quietly on the ground alone, until it was completely dark, and the ropes unraveled at some point. After watching his hands for a long time, he got up like a corpse, pushed open the door and walked out.
In the bamboo house next to him, the middle-aged man turned over when he heard the movement.
The people who proposed relatives returned to Yanzu Village in silence. Yan Jun got off the carriage and locked himself up in a sad mood.
Madam Qu returned the dowry to Yin Mingyu and the others, and left with a sigh.
Yin’er looked at the things that were lost and found, and asked, “Miss, what should I do?”
There are always unexpected things.
Yin Mingyu said, “Put it away.”
In the middle of the night, at the quietest moment, except for the guards on duty at the Bamboo Building and the youth of the Yan Clan, everyone was in deep sleep.
Suddenly, a flame of fire rushed towards Yanzu Village from far and near. The guards in the forest were the first to wake up, staring at a large group of people with torches and various farm tools and knives breaking into Yanzu Village.
They didn’t know what was going on, so they didn’t dare to act rashly.
And as soon as the group entered the village, they began to shout, “Yan Jun! Hand over the people!”
“Yan Jun! Come out!”
“Rocky!”
The slumbering people in Yanzu Village were awakened by the sound of shouting, and screamed in panic, one after another, awakening more villagers.
Yan Jun was still wearing the clothes of the day and came out first. When he saw these intruders, his eyes were fierce, “What are you doing?”
Not long after, some Yan Clan youths came out with knives and stood beside Yan Jun to confront the intruders.
Those people did not flinch at all, and one of them pressed: “Did you hide Nanke? Hand over the person!”
Yan Jun’s heart was shaken, but his face was not strong, “When did I hide someone? You can’t find anyone, why do you come to my Yan Clan? Are we Yan Clan easy to bully?”
The rest of the Yan clan glared angrily, “Get out of our village!”
After the Nanmeng clan walked out, it was one of the old people under the flower tree in the daytime. The old man was aggressive, “Yan Jun, only you and Nanke are related, why doesn’t she come to you?”
Yan Jun replied coldly: “I said no means no, if she comes to me, I am afraid I will take her away and fly high, will I stay here and wait for you?”
The old man snorted coldly, “It’s useless, let’s search!”
Of course, it was impossible for the villagers to let them search the house. The young people were so angry that they were about to fight. Suddenly, an old and weak voice sounded from behind Yanzu: “Let them search, they can’t find them, they must give them to the villagers. A statement from the Rock Clan.”
This is the old patriarch of the Yan clan.
And when he spoke, the Yan people naturally couldn’t say anything, and could only watch those Nanmeng people search door to door.
Nanke was not in the Yan clan, so of course they couldn’t find anyone, and they came out reluctantly after they searched every family.
Yan Jun asked them to apologize, but the old man in Nanmeng glanced at the light in the distance, and became suspicious again, and even asked people to go there to continue the search.
There is the bamboo building where the Xie family is located.
Yan Jun knew that these Nanmeng people could not be easily dismissed, so he thought about it again, and pretended to remind: “That’s the honored guests of our village. If you disturb them, you can’t afford it.”
However, everyone in Nanmeng didn’t believe it at all and insisted on searching.
So a group of people moved outside the bamboo building again.
Before the firelight arrived, the Xie family’s guards had already been on alert. As soon as the Nanmeng people holding the torches approached, the cold light sternly blocked them in front of them.
Those long knives, those people, all had unusual sharp intentions, and everyone in Nanmeng stopped in awe, their arrogance dropped.
The chief guard said coldly: “Who is coming!”
The old man Nanmeng didn’t expect that what Yan Jun said was actually true, he instantly bullied the soft and feared the hard, and said in a good voice, “Let’s find someone, find a girl…”
“Do you think I’m a girl?”
The Xie family guards were still alert when they heard the sound, while the rest of the people all looked up following the sound.
On the bamboo building, Yin Mingyu was full of unpleasantness from being woken up, “You don’t have to be polite to them, anyone who dares to trespass will be killed.”
She was a young woman, speaking of murder, her tone was as if she was used to seeing blood. It was especially gloomy on such a night, and everyone in Nanmeng took a step back subconsciously.
Yan Jun and other Yan people all sneered.
The chief guard said: “We don’t have the person you are looking for here, leave quickly.”
A group of Nanmeng people looked at each other in dismay, and finally retreated in a hurry at the old man’s order.
Yin Mingyu yawned slightly after frightening people, then turned around and went back to sleep.
Yan Jun suddenly stopped her, “Miss Jin’er, I have something to tell you.”
