Lin Daiyu's Rebirth

Chapter 494: Madam Tong Passes Away

Yanzhi was wrapped tightly in the bed sheet, wearing only a light pink bellyband, and stood there trembling slightly, like a withered flower in the wind.

She was too frightened to open her eyes.

If I were to be with others in my own village without any status or position like this, I would be so embarrassed.

At this moment, she had no choice but to close her eyes and endure it all silently.

The housekeeper stood aside, looking at her naked body with a meaningful look, with a lewd smile on his lips.

He slowly reached out his hand, held Yanzhi's chin, and lifted it slightly, exposing her face completely to him.

"Good, good, what a beauty!" the butler praised, licking his lips greedily.

Tears welled up in Yanzhi's eyes and she felt like she was about to cry.

She just wanted to end this nightmare quickly, but how could this man let her go so easily?

Today is a nightmare!

"Come here, little darling, let me take good care of you!"

As the housekeeper spoke, he suddenly picked up Yanzhi and walked towards the bed excitedly.

His hands began to wander over Yanzhi's body, which was as white as mutton-fat jade. Every touch made Yanzhi's body tremble involuntarily.

However, at this critical moment, a loud shout suddenly came from outside the window:

"Someone come quickly, the old lady is dead!"

The sudden shout was like thunder, which scared the butler.

He quickly retracted his hand as if he had been electrocuted, and then hurriedly put on his clothes.

"Your good day is coming soon, come with me!"

The housekeeper hurriedly put on his clothes and said to Yanzhi, "Remember, treat yourself as the eldest daughter of our family!"

Yanzhi immediately breathed a sigh of relief, hurriedly put on her clothes, turned around and put on a sad look and went to the old lady's room.

As soon as the old lady took her last breath, Mr. Tong burst into tears as if the sky had fallen, and cried loudly, as if he was going to follow the old lady.

They have been together for a long time, and the old lady is very important to Mr. Tong.

Back then, Master Tong was still a young boy. It was the old lady’s support and companionship that enabled him to successfully inherit the title of Duke.

Now, their daughter married into the royal palace and became a princess;

The two sons also achieved success in their own ways. One followed the general and fought bloody battles in the northwest frontier to defend his country;

The other one was controlling the floods in the Yellow River and eliminating harm for the people.

Both of these things concern the safety of the country and the well-being of the people.

Master Tong lay on the head of the bed, crying and shouting:

"My lady, my lady, how could you leave me so early?

You left me alone in this house, what should I do? "

Butler Tong stood aside, and seeing Master Tong so sad, he couldn't help crying with him. He hurried to comfort him:

"Master, you are old, you must not be so sad! Your health is more important!"

As he spoke, Butler Tong pushed Yanzhi who was standing next to him and ordered:

"Hurry, go and comfort your father!"

Yanzhi had already been crying like a tearful child. She was standing beside the old lady's body. When she heard the housekeeper's words, she hurriedly squatted down, sobbing and admonishing:

"Father, you are so sad and upset. How can we, your children, feel?

If anything happens to you, what will we do?"

Master Tong, with trembling hands, slowly helped her up, weeping and saying:

"Good boy, hurry up and talk to your mother. This may be the last time you see each other!"

At the same time, the old women and daughters-in-law of the family were busy dressing Mrs. Tong in funeral clothes.

Yanzhi did not hesitate and she even helped Mrs. Tong clean her body, which made everyone admire her.

It took everyone only a short while to put on the funeral clothes, and then they stood quietly by, waiting to go around and announce the death the next day.

Inside the Prince's Mansion in Beijing.

The prince and Daiyu had just had breakfast.

Suddenly, hurried footsteps were heard and Xiao Luzi ran in hurriedly.

"Your Majesty, it's not good!"

Xiao Luzi panted and said, "Just now, the Duke's Mansion reported that Madam Tong had passed away!"

The prince's heart suddenly tightened. He immediately stood up and his face became solemn.

The prince did not hesitate at all. He turned to Daiyu and said, "Let's go to Tong's house quickly."

They quickly changed into dark clothes and hurried to Tong's house.

When they arrived at Tong's house, mourners from all over the place had already poured in like a tide.

At the entrance of the Duke's Mansion, the plaque hanging high up was already surrounded by black flowers, making it look particularly solemn.

Looking around, the entrance of the Duke's Mansion was filled with piles of elegiac couplets and wreaths, and a sad atmosphere enveloped the place.

The prince and Daiyu walked through the crowd and went straight into the yard.

However, just as they stepped into the yard, a shrill cry suddenly rang out.

The eldest son of the Tong family suddenly threw the basin to the ground. The sound seemed to be a signal, and everyone started crying loudly.

The crying sounds came one after another, echoing throughout the yard, making people feel sad.

The prince and Daiyu looked at the scene before them and felt extremely sad.

Amidst the crying, the most eye-catching thing was that the two daughters-in-law were hugging the granary.

And the other woman was actually the girl he met that day.

She was dressed in white mourning clothes, quietly following the two daughters-in-law, holding a jar in her arms, mourning silently.

The prince was startled and murmured softly, "It's her, Bijun is back?"

Daiyu was also surprised: "The eldest wife is back?"

After a while, it was time for the various governments to offer sacrifices.

Time flies and it is already afternoon. At this time, there is nothing to do.

The mourners from various mansions had already left, leaving only the Tong family and relatives.

According to the rules, the old lady should be buried for a week. After a tiring day, everyone took a break.

Yanzhi felt a little tired. She pounded her shoulders carelessly as she walked towards the backyard.

Unexpectedly, just as she was halfway there, a figure suddenly rushed over. The person blocked her way and shouted, "Bijun, stop, let's talk!"

Yanzhi woke up instantly. She looked up and saw that it was the so-called prince from the day before yesterday!

After seeing who was coming clearly, she didn't even raise her eyelids and continued walking forward.

The prince continued to shout, "Stop, Bijun, can you talk to me?"

Yanzhi stopped and sneered, "There's nothing much to discuss between us. If you're not satisfied, just write a divorce letter! Let's not talk about the past, and let everything go!"

The prince hurriedly stopped her and shouted, "No, no, Bijun, you won't treat me like this! After all, we are husband and wife!"

"couple?"

Yanzhi said blankly, "When did you consider me your legitimate wife? It's all over, Your Majesty!"
