Maybe I shouldn't die.

Chapter 119 Grandparents' House

"Later, your father brought your brother to the capital to study. It was only then that he heard the news of my family's rehabilitation that he brought your brother to meet us.

It was at this time that our family learned that my aunt had passed away. Your father had not mentioned this to us in his letters because he was worried that our grandparents were too old to bear the pain of losing their daughter.

After saying this, the man in black couldn't help but sigh. Thanks to his uncle's care and support, the exiled family members managed to survive such a difficult situation. On the contrary, his aunt, who was thought to have a good life, passed away early.

But even if he was a boy, he knew that childbirth was difficult. It was not his uncle's fault. However, his family was sad to hear about it.

The atmosphere was a little solemn again. Fang Yue didn't like this kind of atmosphere, so she asked quickly:

"I wonder how grandparents are doing."

The young man in black also put away his sadness and put a smile on his face again.

"Grandfather, grandma is old and has suffered a lot. She is not in good health. After returning to the capital, His Majesty specially appointed an imperial physician to take care of her. With the precious medicinal herbs brought back by your father and brother, she is now in good health."

After saying this, the young man in black clothes seemed to remember something and continued:

"I haven't introduced myself to you, cousin. My name is Cong Yuheng, courtesy name Zitu. I am the same age as your elder brother. You can call me Cousin Zitu.

I am the second child in the family. In addition to your grandparents, uncle and aunt, you also have an older cousin, Cong Yuming."

After knowing that there were not many people from her maternal grandparents' family, Fang Yue was actually relieved. She didn't know that there was such a thing as a maternal grandparents' family before, so she didn't bring back many pills.

If there were more people from her maternal grandparents' family, there wouldn't be enough to go around. She would definitely give priority to her family, but her father would definitely share the pills.

Later, the two chatted a lot about family matters until it was bright. Then they stopped talking when there was a knock on the door, feeling unsatisfied.

The young man in black clothes only then noticed that it was already daybreak outside. He said apologetically:

"It's all my fault that I was too excited to see my cousin. I ended up chatting with her for half the night without realizing it."

Fang Yue didn't think so. In fact, the other party had been introducing her to family matters. It was because she had been away from home for too long and it was rare for her to hear news from home that she kept talking to the other party for a long time.

"Cousin, you don't have to be like this. It's because I miss my family that I asked you to chat for a while. I also want to thank you for your company."

After saying this, she remembered that the other party was not a cultivator, and would probably be a little tired after not sleeping all night. What's more, he had official business to attend to, so it would be her fault if he was in a bad state because of this.

So she took out a few bottles of spiritual liquid from her bosom and handed them to the young man in black clothes:

"My cousin has something important to do, so I won't bother you any more. I've added some Qingxin Grass to these bottles of spiritual liquid, which has the effect of refreshing the mind. Just consider it as my apology, so please don't refuse it."

Just as the young man in black was about to refuse, there was another knock on the door, and Xiao San's voice:

"Master, Master Changming is back and is anxious to see you."

If it wasn't urgent, Xiao San would not have disturbed them again if he didn't get a response from knocking on the door the first time. The young man in black had no choice but to accept the liquid medicine and said to Fang Yue apologetically:

"Thank you very much, cousin. However, I have something urgent to attend to, so I will take my leave first."

Fang Yue waved her hand nonchalantly.

"It's okay. Business is more important. Go ahead, cousin. It's time for cousin to leave too. See you in the capital."

"See you in the capital."

After the man in black left, Fang Yue put away the soundproofing barrier and thought about the other party's purpose.

Although the other party's identity has been confirmed and he is indeed his cousin, he has not revealed any other details.

In addition to recognizing her last night, the other party should have also come to inquire about the purpose of her trip to Nan'an. After knowing that she was only entrusted by someone to come to deliver things and look for some people with immortal connections, the other party was obviously relieved.

He also hinted to her that there might be unrest in this martial arts conference, and if possible, she should avoid getting involved with the aristocratic families.

He knew that his cousin was hinting to him that the imperial court might take action against some aristocratic families, and hoped that he would not send out the Ascension Order to avoid future troubles.

The other party was her cousin, and her brother was also an official in the court. She did not want to be an enemy of the court, so she nodded to show that she knew. However, thinking of the young man in the Wang family who might have good talent, she still asked:

“The Wang family may be among them.”

Wang family, my cousin thought about it carefully and then shook his head.

"The Wang family was not involved."

Fang Yue did not ask any other questions, but she couldn't help but feel worried. Since the imperial court was going to take action against the aristocratic families, unrest in Nan'an was probably inevitable.

She didn't want to be involved in it. It seemed that she couldn't go to the martial arts conference. She planned to leave Nan'an and go to the next destination. The dynasty was so big, and it was not necessary to go to Nan'an to find people with immortal destiny.

Having made up her mind, Fang Yue did not hesitate and immediately packed up her things to leave.

After the young man in black was called out by his men, he saw his good friend with a slap mark on his face. Judging from the mark, the force was not small, so it seemed that his sister-in-law was out of danger.

My friend's face wasn't looking good either. When he saw the young man in black coming over, he just sighed and apologized sincerely:

“Sorry, Zitu, Junior Sister is willful. She heard about me from somewhere and wanted to attack me at night.

You also know that I was picked up by my master and his wife, and they only have this junior sister as their daughter, so she is spoiled and a little willful. "

The young man in black stopped him from continuing:

"Chang Ming, you know the importance of our trip. If we mess up, not only your sister, but you and I will be punished."

The young man named Changming felt even more guilty:

"I know, Zitu, I will write a letter to the master in a while, and someone will come to pick her up soon. But I still have to take care of her in the next few days."

The young man in black clothes only glanced at him:

"So how did she get the news about you? Our operation is confidential. Although we have changed our appearance, your sister-in-law is making such a fuss that the news is bound to leak out.

Everyone in the martial arts world knows that your master is the best at disguise. Do you think anyone can guess your identity from her? "

Hearing this, the young man called Changming also changed his expression, and he quickly replied:

"I have already warned my junior sister not to reveal my identity."

The young man in black just looked at the slap mark on his face and said meaningfully:

"You're sure she'll listen to you."

Changming also hesitated. The first thing his junior sister did after waking up was to slap him. When she found that the wound was torn again, she cried and made a fuss.

He spent the whole night trying to calm her down, and the doctor in the clinic got impatient and gave her a sleeping pill. He also couldn't guarantee that his sister would listen to him.

Thinking of the purpose of this trip, he couldn't help but grit his teeth and said to the young man in black clothes:

"I'll go and bring my junior sister back. I'll keep an eye on her and won't let her leave the inn until the operation is over."

"I hope you will do what you say."
