Don't panic if your home is confiscated or you are exiled, just empty the warehouse and stock u

How devout I was in wanting this child, how much regret I feel now.

Mrs. Feng had not had a child for several years and had taken many medicinal herbs, but unfortunately they had no effect. She then wanted to go to a temple to pray for a child.

She was unwilling at first, but the flower monk used all kinds of sweet words, and he was handsome and had great skills in that area.

She also really wanted a child, so she agreed reluctantly.

Two months later, she was actually diagnosed with pregnancy.

Feng was ecstatic. She had worked her way up from a humble concubine to a successful man. She had used so many tricks and put so much thought into her journey to become the emperor's successor, but now everything was ruined by this incident.

She couldn't figure out how the monk got into the Lu Mansion, and how Lu Yong happened to come back and see all this.

And why did she feel that all this was like a dream and didn't realize that this was reality at all?

Someone must have secretly facilitated all this...

But it was too late to realize this now. After being tortured by the flock of sheep, Feng lay in a ball of sheep dung, dying.

Just like what she did to Jing Xiangxue in the past, she could only compete with the sheep for fodder when she was hungry, and could only drink dirty water when she was hungry.

Seeing Feng lying on the ground unable to get up, Lu Chang squatted beside her and looked at her wounds carefully. "Mom, if these wounds are not treated in time, will they fester and become infested with maggots?"

Feng originally thought that he still had some conscience, at least he knew how to feel sorry for his mother.

But the next moment, his words made her shudder.

Lu Chang smiled coldly and distantly: "I just found some maggots, I really want to see what they look like when they burrow into flesh and blood."

"No... Chang'er, you can't do this to me..." Feng's voice trembled as she watched Lu Chang put the bug on the wound on her back.

The next day, the housekeeper took Lu Chang away. At that moment, she actually felt a sense of relief. It was better for such a scourge to die than to live...

The housekeeper originally wanted to get rid of Lu Chang, but the child seemed to be aware of the danger and pretended to be innocent: "Uncle housekeeper, do you want to kill me? I know I am not Mr. Lu's biological child, but it is not my fault. I didn't want to give birth to him."

The butler's expression relaxed slightly, but he still said nothing. He planned to take him to a farther sea area, put him in a sack and throw him directly into the sea.

"You watched me grow up. I'm just a ten-year-old child. If I leave the Lu Mansion, I'll be nothing. Even if you don't kill me, I probably won't be able to hold on."

The housekeeper slowly turned around, his eyes filled with complex and indescribable emotions, and he sighed softly, "The sooner you die, the sooner you can be free. I hope you can be born into a good family in your next life..."

As soon as he finished speaking, he happened to meet a caravan from the Meng Kingdom. The Meng Kingdom was fond of homosexuality, and although Lu Chang was young, he had an outstanding appearance.

The housekeeper was thinking, he couldn't bear to get stained with blood, but also thinking of the new grandson in the family, the need for money was imminent.

After weighing the pros and cons, he decided that he could make some money if he sold him.

So he sold Lu Chang to the caravan. The child was good-looking and was sold for three taels of silver.

Before leaving, the housekeeper said earnestly: "I won't kill you. It's up to you to decide what will happen to you in the future. Be a good person, and maybe you will have a chance to survive."

But he knew in his heart that if such a child fell into the hands of a homosexual, he would eventually suffer and die.

Lu Chang stared at the butler's back fiercely as he left...As long as he was allowed to live, as long as he kept his life, he would definitely have the opportunity to come back for revenge, and everyone here would be subjected to his crazy revenge.

……

Lu Yong ordered that no one should help Feng treat her wounds, but her wounds became more serious over the past few days. She was in unbearable pain and emitted a foul smell.

It was like crying out to heaven and earth for help but no one answered. He finally understood the pain that Jing Xiangxue had felt back then.

Under Jiang Nianwei's care, Jing Xiangxue's body gradually recovered, and her wounds healed with the help of spiritual springs and medicines.

Her originally sunken cheeks have grown a little more flesh and become fuller, showing that she was once a dignified and beautiful woman.

I was initially wary of Jiang Nianwei, but now they can have simple communication with her.

Jiang Nianwei handed her the letter brought by Jing Zhuo and his mother, "Aunt, this is the letter my mother, your sister Jing Qiudie, asked me to bring to you. This one is for you..."

She hesitated for a while, and finally sighed, "Your child Jing Zhuo brought it here. Take a look at it, and maybe you will feel a little relieved."

She didn't dare to mention the real Jing Zhuo, because the current Jing Zhuo had changed inside out and was no longer the original her.

If my aunt knew the truth, she would probably be even more upset.

When Jing Xiangxue heard her words, a trace of emotion finally flashed in her empty eyes, and she murmured softly: "Qiu Die... Zhuo Er..."

"Yes, they are all the people closest to you. I will take you back to see them, but now you must take care of your body so that you can travel long distances with me in the future. I will read these letters to you, okay?"

She nodded, not quite understanding, "Okay."

After Jiang Nianwei finished reading the two letters, Jing Xiangxue actually shed tears silently.

Jiang Nianwei knew that she was gradually recovering, and maybe by the time they set off, her aunt would have returned to normal.

Jing Xiangxue began to mutter to herself again, "Sheep... those sheep..."

Jing Xiangxue still misses them in her heart as the flock of sheep accompanied her through countless unbearable days and nights.

Jiang Nianwei reacted immediately: "Are you missing the sheep? Don't worry, they are safe and sound in the mansion. If you miss them badly, I will take you to visit them quietly tonight."

She was planning to explore the Lu Mansion again, but she had not yet succeeded in getting the gold, silver and jewelry in the private vault.

No matter how heavily guarded the Lu Mansion was, it would definitely not be difficult for her to get in.

Jing Xiangxue heard this, a glimmer flashed in her eyes, and she nodded slightly: "I want to see them."

Jiang Nianwei planned to go to Lu Mansion again at night to see in person the place where Shuangshuang mentioned the treasure was hidden.

"If my aunt wants to go with me, she must ensure that no noise is made."

Jing Xiangxue said solemnly: "I promise."

She asked Shuangshuang to take Jing Xiangxue with her, while she needed A Zhao's help. After all, her lightness skills were not good enough to avoid being discovered.

Ah Zhao has been avoiding physical contact with her recently. She had noticed this a long time ago, but she had been pretending to be nothing special.

But as long as you make a request, he will never refuse.

While having dinner at the inn in the evening, she looked around and did not see Ah Zhao, so she asked Duan Yun beside her, "Have you seen where Ah Zhao is?"

Duan Yun's tone was more teasing: "Do you still need to ask an outsider like me about your husband's whereabouts?"

After saying this, a trace of deep thought suddenly flashed across his brows, as if he had realized something: "Could it be that you two are having a conflict?"

Jiang Nianwei touched her nose pretending to be nonchalant and responded casually: "Nothing."

Duan Yun understood what was going on and stopped asking further questions. He just said gently, "If I'm not mistaken, he should be on the roof of the room you live in now. It seems he has been there for several hours."

Upon hearing this, Jiang Nianwei's eyes involuntarily raised slightly following Duan Yun's guidance, and saw that not far away, the familiar figure was indeed standing quietly on the roof, blending into the night.

She ate a few bites casually, packed some more food, took a pot of wine, borrowed a slightly old ladder from the innkeeper, and climbed onto the roof.

When Ah Zhao saw her lift the basket with one hand and climb up the ladder with the other, his heart tightened involuntarily.

He quickly jumped off the roof, holding onto the ladder with both hands, his eyes full of worry: "This ladder has been in disrepair for a long time, it's shaky, if something goes wrong, what will happen to you, a delicate person?"

Jiang Nianwei said without hesitation, "I couldn't find you. Duan Yun said you had been up there for several hours, so I wanted to come and see what scenery made you linger and indulge in it. Come up quickly."

Ah Zhao felt mixed emotions when he heard this. He finally sighed, used his Qinggong skills again, jumped onto the roof lightly, and sat down side by side with Jiang Nianwei.

On the roof, the view suddenly opens up. Not far away, the vast blue sea is shining with golden luster under the afterglow of the setting sun, and the waves are sparkling, which is beautiful beyond words.

At dusk, the sky is gradually dyed with a gentle orange-red color, and the clouds are dyed into gorgeous brocade by the setting sun, layer upon layer, spreading on the sky where blue and golden are intertwined, which is so beautiful that it makes people intoxicated.

At this moment, time seemed to freeze, and the two sat quietly without saying a word.

Jiang Nianwei took out a wine jug and wine glass from the basket. "Such a beautiful view should be paired with fine wine. The shopkeeper strongly recommends the pear blossom white here. He said that it is refreshing with a light floral fragrance, which has a unique flavor. Do you want to try it?"

Ah Zhao naturally refused, "I don't drink. Drinking will cause trouble."

He couldn't hold his alcohol tolerance, and one glass was enough to make him drunk and unconscious. Besides, Jiang Nianwei came to see him, so she must have something, and he couldn't miss the important matter.

Jiang Nianwei couldn't help but sigh: "What a pity."

Ah Zhao continued, "In this situation, with you by my side, it is already the best wine, and nothing else is needed to add color."

Jiang Nianwei secretly knew in her heart that he had all kinds of abilities to please others, but she just ignored it.

I originally thought that since she was in her forties, she wouldn't be affected by any sweet talk.

Now, Ah Zhao's casual words were enough to make her heart beat like a drum.

Jiang Nianwei said lightly: "What nonsense are you talking about? You have nothing serious to say."

The light of dusk concealed the embarrassment on Jiang Nianwei's face, and her tone contained a joy that she herself was not even aware of.

She pretended to be nonchalant and said, "Since you haven't eaten yet, I am here to bring you food out of kindness. Eat quickly, because I need your help with something important tonight."

After thinking about it, he felt something was wrong, so he added: "After things here are done, I will explain our affairs to you after we return! By then, I hope we can be honest and open with each other."

Ah Zhao was startled. What she meant was... Was that what he was thinking?

He stood up suddenly, and his movement was so big that Jiang Nianwei almost lost her balance. Ah Zhao quickly stretched out his arms to hold her steadily. When their eyes met, there was no need for words, and feelings quietly took root in their hearts.

Jiang Nianwei climbed down the ladder in a panic, leaving only one sentence, "I'll come to see you in the evening, and we'll drink Lihuabai after the matter is done."

A smile appeared on Ah Zhao's lips, his heart filled with joy and anticipation.

……

At midnight, when everything was quiet, the four of them sneaked into the Lu Mansion silently.

Jing Xiangxue saw that the sheep in the sheepfold were safe and sound, and their numbers were not reduced. She couldn't help but smile with joy, "They are not dead."

She always remembered what Feng said about slaughtering all the sheep, but now they are all well in the sheepfold.

However, there was a strong stench in the sheep pen, which made everyone cover their noses involuntarily.

Shuangshuang frowned, pinched her nose and asked, "What's that smell?"

A disheveled figure crawled out from the pile of sheep dung and hay and suddenly grabbed the tip of Shuangshuang's shoe. The sudden touch made her scream, and then she instinctively raised her foot and kicked the black shadow several times. Panic and rapid breathing echoed in the air.

Jiang Nianwei took out the night pearl and saw that the extremely embarrassed figure was none other than Feng who was imprisoned there.

With the help of the dim light, Feng saw that the person coming was Jing Xiangxue. She felt panicked and ashamed. She hurriedly covered her face with her messy hair and wanted to hide in the dirty place again.

Jiang Nianwei sneered, "No need to hide, Feng, everyone has seen that you are neither human nor ghost now. Did you ever think that you would fall to this point? Everything that my aunt has suffered has come back to you."

"Remember, everything you endure today is the result of the causes you planted."

"Someone come here..." Feng was about to call for someone to come over, but no matter how she shouted, no one came here.

She had built the sheep pen where Jing Xiangxue was imprisoned because this was the most remote place in the Lu Mansion.

When Jing Xiangxue saw her, she was frightened at first, but after Jiang Nianwei comforted her, she gradually calmed down: "She...she finally got her retribution."

"Aunt, what do you think of her? Should we just kill her?"

Jing Xiangxue shook her head, sighed softly, and then slowly said: "No, let her live, so that she can understand my pain."

If she were allowed to die so easily, what would her suffering mean?

Jing Xiangxue frowned slightly, some memories flashed through her mind. She squatted down and looked around for something on the ground.

Jiang Nianwei asked curiously: "Aunt, what are you looking for?"

Jing Xiangxue's tone was filled with impatience: "That thing...that thing should be here. I hid it here and buried it in the soil. They can't find it. Now that you are here, I must find it."

Although her words were a little messy, Jiang Nianwei had already understood the meaning, "Aunt, do you mean that there is something important buried in this land?"

Jing Xiangxue nodded quickly to confirm: "Yes, I remember it's right here!"

Shuangshuang looked at the simple environment around her and couldn't help wondering: "What important things could be hidden in this place?"
