Quickly travel to save the cannon fodder? No, I will just flip the table

The date for the ceremony of recognizing ancestors was set half a month later, which was exactly when Qianqian was supposed to leave.

Knowing this coincidence, Qianqian complained to the system: "No way, how unlucky is this?"

The system comforted her: "Host, there is nothing we can do. It is just such a coincidence. Besides, Xiao Yuanhuai has recently moved into the palace. The head of the family thinks highly of him. I see his father is trying to please him, not to mention other people."

"Why don't you say that his stepmother always looks at people in a sinister way with a fake smile on her face?"

"In a sense, we have to understand that she is not a legitimate wife, but her husband made vows of love before marriage and had a seduce marriage after marriage. After much difficulty, she gave birth to a son, but he died young. Now that her son is about to die, a bastard who is excellent in every way comes along."

"Well, who are you calling a bastard?"

"Slip of the tongue, slip of the tongue. Allow me to correct it. When the eldest master got Xiao Yuanhuai's mother, he claimed to be unmarried. It's all his fault. Host, calm down."

"I'm not angry at all. It's none of my business."

"Yes, yes, they are all shit." The system responded perfunctorily while complaining in its heart, and it said it was not angry, but it even used swear words.

But he still had a lot to say, so he continued, "Emotionally, the biological child is dying, he must be very sad, and the mansion is busy because of Xiao Yuanhuai, and no one pays attention to them, mother and son, you can imagine how they feel.

Besides, this isn't her biological child. When she came back, she was already this big. Now she can't raise him well even if she wants to. Do you think she will feel like a joke for the rest of her life?"

Qianqian was puzzled: "System, how do you understand this kind of mood so carefully?"

"Well, host, things have been peaceful recently. I thought it shouldn't be wasted, so I upgraded myself again." The system said shyly.

Qianqian twitched her lips and asked without expectation: "So what did you watch?"

"Nothing much, just "After I died, my husband went crazy", "My husband thought he brought back a son, but he turned out to be a killer", "After my son died, I killed everyone in the palace"..."

Qianqian was silent after hearing this. Actually, she didn't need to respond to the situation like this. To be honest, she was quite scared right now. She couldn't even look at the eldest lady normally...

Soon, the appointed day arrived. During these days, Qianqian did her best to arrange everything that could be arranged.

Regardless of whether Nanny and Xiao Cui were willing to leave the house or not, she returned their indentures to them, gave each of them a profitable shop, and provided them with 1,200 taels of silver as a reserve.

On weekdays, she would tell Xiao Yuanhuai, either explicitly or implicitly, that she intended to let the two men leave, but that it was not easy for a woman to be away from home, and she hoped that Xiao Yuanhuai would take good care of them in the future.

In addition, not to mention the mansion's finances, all of his own shops were also secretly transferred to Xiao Yuanhuai.

At this time, although she was nominally Xiao Yuanhuai's wife, she could not enter the ancestral hall. Thinking about the ending of this man in his previous life, although she knew that he was on guard in this life, she still couldn't help but worry.

I looked around today but couldn't see the eldest lady. I don't know if she was forbidden to come or if there was something else going on.

When the ceremony started, Qianqian saw a thin figure coming in late, and the servants all called him, "Master!"

After being informed by the system, she realized that the person in front of her, who was so thin that he was unrecognizable and was being supported and walking unsteadily, was actually Xiao Yuanhuai's brother.

I just don't know, in this situation today, he is holding on like this and looking at his body that is about to die at any time, is he coming here to care about his newly recognized brother, or does he want to do something else?

Qianqian had no idea, and the system didn’t give any warning, so she could only be alert in secret.

Seeing his son coming over despite his illness, the eldest son looked unhappy, but this was for his wife. Then he looked distressed: "Yuan'er, you are not feeling well, why are you here?"

"Father, today is a good day for my younger brother to return to his ancestral home. I should come here. If mother wasn't here... she would have come too!"

"Don't mention him. Don't stand there. Sit here and don't worry!" As he said this, he asked the servants to come and arrange the table and chairs.

The noise inside could be clearly heard, so Qianqian knew exactly what had happened. It seemed that something had happened to the eldest lady, and this scumbag eldest son unexpectedly showed some affection for his legitimate son.

"System, can you please see what's wrong with the Madam?"

"Host, I don't know the details, but I heard from the people in their courtyard that he seems to be sick. Anyway, he can't get out of bed today."

"What a coincidence?"

The system cannot detect things that did not happen or words that were not said, so it cannot answer more questions. We can only say that this is the fact.

But one thing is clear, that is, compared with the previous life, Xiao Yuanhuai, the eldest brother, is a variable. Looking at this person, I don’t know what he can do?

The ceremony continued inside, and there were no unexpected events until the end.

In this life, Xiao Yuanhuai did not need to change his appearance, but entered the ancestral hall of the palace with his original appearance and identity. Even his mother's spirit tablet could occupy a place behind it.

After the ceremony, he was filled with emotion as he looked at the scene in front of him. In his previous life, he was so anxious that he didn't know when he would be here, and now he has become the manipulator.

Even though the eldest lady was not here today, the Prince of Zhennan would make the decision to register the property under the name of his stepmother. Xiao Yuanhuai had no objection as this was what she owed him in her previous life, and the palace needed an heir like him.

Why not do something that is mutually beneficial?

Just as he was filled with emotion, he heard the voice of his adopted brother behind him: "Brother, from now on I will also have a younger brother. Mother couldn't come today, so I think she must be very happy."

He didn't know what was going on with this tone, but it sounded very strange to him. However, he couldn't help but respond, so he turned around and bowed: "Brother!"

"My brother is truly an exceptional person. In the past, I was not in good health and did not go out. I only heard about him from outside. Now that I have met him, I realize that hearing about him is worth seeing in person." As the man spoke, he reached out his hand to touch his face.

Xiao Yuanhuai stepped back uncomfortably.

Then the man laughed at himself and said, "Yes, with my current condition, I might die anytime soon, so it's better to stay away from him, lest I get sick accidentally."

After hearing this, Xiao Yuanhuai no longer wanted to pretend to be nice to others. As the Prince of Zhennan called him over, he bowed and was about to leave.

I had only taken one step when I heard Qianqian's voice: "Cousin, be careful!"

Before he could turn around, a warm body crashed into his arms, and his brother in front of him actually pulled out a bloody dagger and stabbed him hard.

Xiao Yuan was holding Qianqian in his arms and had not yet reacted to dodge when he heard loud calls from the side, as well as the scolding of his grandfather and father, and the figures of servants stepping forward to stop him.

None of this was as important as the person in his arms standing in front of him again.

This time, he saw clearly that the dagger was firmly inserted into Qianqian's heart. The splattered blood dyed her clothes red, and also dyed his eyes red!
