It is the time when the clouds stop raining

There was heavy rain, lightning and thunder. With a flash of lightning, the night suddenly became as bright as day.

You can clearly see a person lying in the yard. Judging from her figure and the hem of her skirt, it is a woman.

The dirty blood was mixed with the smell of earth and could not be washed away even by heavy rain.

If the woman on the ground hadn't moved, I would have thought she was dead.

Another flash of lightning came down, and one could see scars all over the woman's face, with her skin and flesh turned inside out, and blood and flesh connected together, which was extremely ugly.

The woman opened her eyes slightly, and her eyes were bright, even clearer and more lustrous than rain water.

If you listen carefully, behind the sound of rain and thunder, you can hear a weak moan, and someone saying in a low and deep voice, "I didn't seduce anyone."

Unfortunately, there was no one in the courtyard and no one could hear her explanation.

Hearing the sound of the courtyard door, the woman was very excited and her eyes became clearer. It was her husband who believed in her and came to see her.

He wanted to struggle to stand up, but unfortunately he didn't have enough strength and fell heavily to the ground again.

Two people came, but unfortunately they were not the husband the girl had been thinking about.

Two people walked slowly towards them holding umbrellas, and even the hems of their skirts were not wet at all, forming a sharp contrast with the woman lying on the ground.

A mocking voice rang out: "The most noble daughter of the Yong'an Marquis's Mansion, my dear sister, why are you crawling in this mud like a dog? Look at how dirty your clothes are. Is this still Xie Yunshu who only wears Yunsijin?"

When Xie Yunshu saw the person coming, he said angrily: "It was you who framed me, Xie Qingyun."

Xie Qingyun lowered her body, and the maid behind her hurriedly followed, holding an umbrella for Xie Qingyun tightly: "Sister is still so smart, so guess why I am here."

The water dripping from the umbrella above Xie Qingyun's head all fell on Xie Yunshu's face. Xie Yunshu couldn't understand why Xie Qingyun, who had been declared dead, would appear here. It seemed that Xie Qingyun was not dead at all.

Xie Yunshu looked at Xie Qingyun's smiling eyes and suddenly thought that the child she would give birth to would also have a pair of such eyes.

To be precise, it is not her biological child. Now it seems that this child is Xie Qingyun and Fang Tingshen's.

Ever since marrying Fang Tingshen.

Fang Tingshen had health problems, and although the two never consummated their marriage, they lived a harmonious life for a while.

Until rumors spread in the capital that Fang Tingshen was impotent.

Fang Tingshen then admitted that there was indeed something wrong with his health, but he was actively receiving treatment. The imperial physician said that he would be well in half a year.

But now he wants to dispel the rumors and hopes Yunshu will pretend to be pregnant so that the rumors will be dispelled.

At that time, she loved Fang Tingshen deeply and considered him in everything. Xie Yunshu originally thought that she could just pretend to be pregnant, but Fang Tingshen said that he was afraid that she would suffer the pain of childbirth in the future, so it would be better for her to pretend to be pregnant. When the time came for her to give birth, he would adopt a child from a side branch.

Come to think of it, she was really naive. How could she be blinded by love and not be able to see such a clumsy lie? She was also particularly grateful to Fang Ting for considering her deeply.

Xie Yunshu figured out the key: "So you two have been together for a long time, why are you still plotting against me?"

If she knew from the beginning that Fang Tingshen and Xie Qingyun were together, how could she have married Fang Tingshen?

"Because only with your help, Fang Tingshen can walk fast and steadily." Xie Qingyun said to Xie Yunshu with a smile.

"Since you two are already together, I can just divorce him. Why...why..." Xie Yunshu really wanted to ask why he put someone in her bed and accused her of cheating. Unfortunately, because of the pain all over her body, Xie Yunshu coughed up blood. She had been tortured for a whole month and her body was already in tatters.

Xie Qingyun used her delicate jade fingers to fiercely pinch the flesh on Xie Yunshu's face, and shouted frantically: "I want to destroy you. I want to inflict on you a thousand times the pain I have suffered."

Xie Yunshu was very puzzled. She watched Xie Qingyun's sinister face gradually become more distorted. She didn't understand why Xie Qingyun hated her so much. They grew up together without any conflicts or quarrels. Xie Qingyun was her uncle's child, but because her uncle died early, Xie Qingyun was raised by her father. Everything she had since she was a child, she must have, too.

Sometimes it is even better than her own, like their marriage, Xie Qingyun is going to marry into the Duke's Mansion, while she, Xie Yunshu, is going to marry Fang Tingshen from an ordinary family.

But why did Xie Qingyun look at her as if she were an enemy? Her body was in so much pain, as if thousands of knives were stabbing her. Xie Yunshu couldn't think too much and said painfully and intermittently: "Dad, Dad, Brother, will not let you go."

Xie Qingyun laughed: "I thought you were very smart, but I didn't expect you to be such a fool in the end."

Xie Qingyun slowly leaned over to Xie Yunshu's ear and spoke softly in a voice that only the two of them could hear.

No one knew what Xie Qingyun had said, but Xie Yunshu's face became more and more surprised and trembling. Unfortunately, her tendons in her hands and feet were all cut, so she couldn't get up no matter how hard she struggled.

Xie Qingyun watched Xie Yunshu struggle and fall down again. At this moment, he should not be called Xie Yunshu but Xie Langcang.

Falling on the water again, blood continued to flow out of Xie Yunshu's mouth, and blood and rain flowed down his face. Xie Yunshu could no longer move. One of his two big eyes was buried in the rain on the ground, and no expression could be seen, while the other one looked at Xie Qingyun unwillingly.

The maid next to Xie Qingyun looked at the motionless Xie Yunshu with disgust: "Miss, it seems that she will not survive tonight. It is raining heavily and cold. You should go back early. Master Fang and the young master are still waiting for you."

Xie Qingyun suddenly took out a dagger and stabbed it towards Xie Yunshu's heart: "I didn't want to get blood on my hands, but now I think it would be more satisfying to kill you with my own hands. My dear sister, I will bury you with honor tomorrow." Xie Qingyun pushed the dagger in again. In fact, Xie Yunshu had already been breathing out more than breathing in, with holes all over her body and numbness to the pain. "Oh my, look, my skirt is all wet."

Xie Qingyun pulled out the dagger and rinsed the dagger and his hands in the rain.

The two of them held umbrellas and slowly left.

The rain was getting heavier and heavier, slowly covering half of Xie Yunshu's body, but Xie Yunshu could not move. A loud thunder sounded in the sky, illuminating the entire courtyard. The light was on for a moment, and then it went dark again. The heavy rain continued all night long.

At dawn the next day, the maid who came to the side courtyard to deliver food discovered that Xie Yunshu's body had been washed into the pond in the side courtyard. The originally empty pond was now filled with water.

When Xie Yunshu's body was salvaged, Fang Tingshen cried bitterly and even fainted at one point.

After waking up, he kept muttering to himself that it was all his fault for not trusting the madam. The madam would definitely not betray him. If he had trusted the madam, she would not have walked to the side yard in a bad mood and fell into the water.

Xie Yunshu was buried with great ceremony. Fang Tingshen took his children to Xie Yunshu's grave every day to repent.

Qian'er, who used to be pretty and charming, had a much thinner face after being tossed around for a few days.

The Fang family felt that it was not a good idea for Fang Tingshen to continue like this, and wanted to give the young master a second wife to take care of both the young master and the younger master.

Marquis Yong'an expressed that he did not believe others treated the young master sincerely, so he married his newly found daughter from the second wife to him.

Everyone has long lamented that the second daughter and the first daughter have a deep sisterly love. Although the younger sister passed away, the elder sister still gave up her own happiness and was willing to take care of the children left behind by her younger sister.

As expected, everyone was not mistaken about the second wife's eldest daughter, Xie Qingyun. According to the servants of the Fang residence, Xie Qingyun treated the young master as her own son. She even stayed with the young master when he got smallpox.

He declared that the young master's life was more important than his own, and that this was the most important thing his sister had left him, and that he would live for his sister and the young master in the future.
