"What's your relationship with the Valley of Withered Souls?"

Jiang Si's eyes were as sharp as a knife. This was the first time she showed such a cold aura towards Qin Min.

Whether it was these words or that cold look, they all stabbed Qin Min's heart hard.

After being stunned for a long time, Qin Min finally spoke: "My mother is from the Valley of Withered Souls."

It's really aimed at this brat.

Jiang Si thought silently in her heart, and when she looked up at Qin Min again, her eyes softened.

"Why, do you want me to ask you a question and you to answer it?"

Hearing the familiar soft voice, Qin Min looked up at Jiang Si, and saw that she had returned to her usual self and even poured a glass of water to the empty seat opposite.

Qin Min saw this and sat down, holding the teacup in both hands, and spoke slowly: "I grew up in the village with my mother. Half a month ago, a group of people suddenly came and killed us without any explanation. In order to send me away, my mother fought with the bad guys and died. I heard from them that the one who wanted to kill my mother was her father, my grandfather."

No matter how mature Qin Min behaves on weekdays, he is still a child after all. When he talks about sad things, tears fall uncontrollably. He misses his mother, but he won't say it out loud.

"Why? Why did he kill your mother?" Jiang Si frowned and continued to ask.

"I don't know." Qin Min wiped away her tears and continued, "They seem to be looking for something, but I don't know what it is."

"The things are with you?" Jiang Si said, and as if she was afraid that he would misunderstand her, she explained, "I don't mean to take your things."

"My mother didn't leave me even a single word last year, let alone anything." Qin Min shook his head.

Hearing him say this, Jiang Si stopped dwelling on this question and thought of something else, "What about your father?"

"I don't have a father." When talking about this topic, Qin Min's face showed other emotions, his eyes became firm, and he answered decisively.

Although he didn't say much about his attitude, Jiang Si also smelled something unusual from it.

His parents are both good at literature. Could this kid's biological father be some domineering CEO?

The more Jiang Si thought about it, the more she felt that this was possible.

"What...what's wrong?" Qin Min's heart began to beat fast when he saw Jiang Si's gossipy eyes staring at him.

"Don't leave the house for the time being. Stay with that stinky old man for food, lodging and travel."

Jiang Si's simple explanation made Qin Min realize that something was wrong.

"Are they chasing us?" Qin Min looked nervous.

"Well, your grandpa is the ghost doctor, right? Here comes his eldest disciple, the Evil Doctor Immortal."

Jiang Si did not hide anything from him just because he was young, but directly told him the information she knew.

"I understand. Don't worry, sister. I will be extra careful during this period." Qin Min stood up suddenly, clenched his fists tightly, and assured Jiang Si.

"Sister, you're back. I want to tell you that something big happened back home!" Zhou Xiaoyuan noticed that something was wrong with the atmosphere in the room as soon as she opened the door. She spoke in a low voice. She stood at the door holding the lazy cat, not knowing whether to go in or back.

"What's the big deal?" Seeing Zhou Xiaoyuan's gloating expression when she came in, Jiang Si knew that she had something new.

Seeing Jiang Si looking at her, Zhou Xiaoyuan hurried into the house, "The Thirteenth Aunt was sent to a nunnery. Sister, do you know why she wanted to attack Twenty-one?"

Jiang Si shook her head. To be honest, if she was interested, she would have handled the matter herself, but Zhou Xiaoyuan came to her specially to talk to her, and she couldn't just kick him out, right?

Zhou Xiaoyuan was round all over. When she sat down next to Jiang Si, her big belly hit the table, making a "duangduang" sound. She moved her chair back a little in embarrassment.

"A year ago, Thirteenth Concubine and Sixth Concubine got pregnant one after the other. Their children were born one day apart, but Thirteenth Concubine's child was stillborn. She kept saying that she was murdered. She thought Sixth Concubine had been out of favor for many years and it was impossible for her to get pregnant. She thought Sixth Concubine stole her child and replaced it with a dead baby."

"Ah, so, she thinks Twenty-One is her child?" Jiang Si was so unwilling to know the truth at first that she was now very interested in listening.

"Yes, she thought that if people knew that Sixth Aunt was not good to the child, someone would investigate what happened. That's why she killed the child." Zhou Xiaoyuan said while petting the cat.

When Jiang Si heard this, she couldn't help but sigh, "This train of thought is really unique."

"That's right!" Zhou Xiaoyuan responded, "The child she gave birth to was indeed a boy, but he died due to congenital deficiencies. It was my grandfather who helped to deal with it."

Jiang Si just treated this as a joke, but when she saw Zhou Xiaoyuan, she suddenly remembered something and quickly took out the collected river water from the space.

"You've come just in time. Take a look and see if there's anything wrong with the water."

The crystal clear glass bottle contained a bottle of slightly turbid river water, with a few pink petals floating on it.

Compared with the water in the bottle, Zhou Xiaoyuan was obviously more interested in the glass container containing the water.

Just as she reached out to take it, a cry of surprise came from outside the room, "Oh my god, this girl is so strong, she must eat eight bowls in one meal!"

On weekdays, Zhou Xiaoyuan was often ridiculed because of her figure. Although she was accustomed to these cold words, she still couldn't help feeling sad when she heard such words.

"If you don't speak, no one will treat you as mute."

Fan Tong looked at Xiao Yuan's lonely expression and kicked her again.

But this time, Zhang Xiaoxi was prepared and was not kicked.

Zhou Xiaoyuan glanced at the petite, slender, and pretty girl and asked in a low voice, "Brother Tong, who is she?"

"Your brother Tong's new concubine."

Three tacit voices sounded at the same time, coming from Que Feibai who descended from the sky, Murong Zhengjue who chased after him, and Jiang Si who was sitting in the house.

Hearing this, Zhou Xiaoyuan and Qin Min both stood up and looked at Fan Tong angrily.

"You want to take a concubine?" Qin Min's hand was on the hilt of the knife, ready to make a move.

"Brother Tong, you have learned bad things." Zhou Xiaoyuan's hand also reached into the small bag she was carrying, which contained the little snake she raised.

Fan Tong looked very pale at the moment. It would be fine if it happened to others, but why did his own wife say that?

"Oh, please don't disgust me. I'm not blind. She is a maid, not a concubine."

After hearing what Fan Tong said, everyone's eyes were on Zhang Xiaoxi. They saw her picking her nostrils with her right little finger, with one foot bent and standing on tiptoe, like a scoundrel.

Seeing everyone's eyes were on him, Zhang Xiaoxi stuck his little finger out of his nostril, pressed it with his thumb and flicked it, and the nose bullet flew away.

"What's wrong? Is there something on my face?"

hiss~

Seeing this scene, everyone gasped.

Oh God, please give me a pair of eyes that I have never seen.
