Having transmigrated into a book, who would still want to be a secondary wife?

Song Ruozhen spoke earnestly; the illness was not difficult for her to treat, it just required more effort.

Song Yi'an initially thought her sister was just comforting her and didn't take it to heart. However, seeing how seriously she spoke, she unconsciously began to believe her a little.

"Good sister, your second brother believes you."

Seeing that Song Yi'an seemed to be persuaded, Song Zhiyu couldn't help but ask, "Second brother, do you really believe it? Fifth sister has never studied medicine."

"As long as Fifth Sister is happy, that's all that matters. I've seen all the doctors in the city in my current state, so what's there to be afraid of?"

A bitter smile tugged at the corners of Song Yi'an's mouth. His bright future had vanished the day he went blind. The annulment of the engagement was expected. His sister didn't want him to give up, but it was for his own good.

As for whether it's true or not... does it even matter?

Song Ruozhen did not pay attention to the conversation between the two. Her gaze turned to the back. Ever since she stepped into the Song residence, she had noticed that the backyard was shrouded in a sinister aura.

It was a bright, sunny day, but there was a dark shadow behind it, clearly indicating that something was causing trouble.

"I'll go check in the back."

Seeing that Song Ruozhen went to the backyard after she finished speaking, Song Zhiyu quickly followed her, "Fifth sister, wait for me."

As they got closer to the backyard, the malevolent energy grew stronger, and the temperature, which should have been warm, suddenly turned cold, sending chills down their spines.

Song Ruozhen stared intently at the sinister aura circulating in the air, her brows furrowed. "Fourth Brother, has anything changed in the backyard recently?"

"No," Song Zhiyu shook his head.

“For example, large-scale construction projects.” Song Ruozhen’s eyes were serious. When she read the book before, the Song family’s affairs were only mentioned in passing and no such details were written, so she naturally did not know them.

Song Zhiyu suddenly realized, "Fifth Sister, you mean the lotus pond that was recently filled in?"

"A lotus pond?" Song Ruozhen pointed ahead. "Could it be around here?"

“Yes.” Song Zhiyu nodded. “Recently, things haven’t been peaceful at home. My father has been missing and hasn’t returned yet, my older brother has injured both legs, and my mother has been very anxious.”

A few days ago, after taking advice, I specially invited a master to look at the feng shui. He said that the lotus pond was filled with bad luck and ruined the fortune of the mansion, which is why one misfortune after another happened.

My mother felt that ever since the lotus pond was built, one misfortune after another had befallen the family. So, following the advice of a wise man, she filled in the lotus pond, hoping that your marriage would go smoothly. But unexpectedly, misfortune still occurred…”

Song Ruozhen grasped the key point: "Whose advice did Mother take?"

The lotus pond does indeed have a problem, which is detrimental to the Song family's fortune, but it's only a minor issue. Logically, it should be improved once it's filled in, and there shouldn't be such a strong ominous aura.

I'm afraid... someone added something to it.

What kind of luck change is this? It's clearly a deliberate attempt to ruin the Song family's fortune, leaving them with no chance of recovery!

"I listened to my aunt's advice."

"Aunt?" Song Ruozhen suddenly realized.

Although this aunt was Liu Ruyan's younger sister, she was actually closer to Qin Shuangshuang's family, which I found strange when I read the book.

The Liu family was just a small, insignificant family in the capital, while Qin Shuangshuang's mother, Gu Yunwei, was the daughter of the esteemed Grand Tutor Gu, with an extremely noble status and high standards. She looked down on ordinary people, yet she was on good terms with the Liu family's aunt, which seemed illogical.

“My aunt came by a few days ago. Because she hired this expert, she swindled a lot of things from my mother. We’ve been used to it for so many years.”

Song Zhiyu shook his head. He disapproved of his aunt's behavior, but his mother was gentle and kind, and the Liu family had always acted this way. He couldn't persuade his mother to disrespect her parents or not care about her siblings, so he could only swallow his dissatisfaction.

Song Ruozhen knew very well that her aunt Liu Feiyan was Qin Shuangshuang's helper, but she didn't know exactly how the two of them got together.

As she watched the murderous aura spreading before her, her eyes grew colder and colder. She had said that even if Qin Shuangshuang and Lin Zhiyue were in love, it wouldn't have led to the downfall of the entire Song family and the tragic deaths of everyone. Now it seemed... their fortune had been stolen!

"Men, dig this place up!" Song Ruozhen ordered.

Song Zhiyu's expression changed. "Fifth sister, the expert previously instructed that once this place is filled in, it must not be touched for a hundred years, otherwise there will surely be bloodshed!"

"Untouchable for a hundred years?" Song Ruozhen smiled sarcastically. The person who made this decision was quite capable. With just this one sentence, he was certain that the Song family would not dare to make any rash moves.

Bloodshed and disaster.

The Song family, already on the verge of collapse and unable to withstand any further setbacks, dared not dig it open to take a look.

The longer this goes on, the more their fortune will be completely taken away, and the entire family will suffer a bloody disaster!

"Then let's ask Mother properly after she wakes up. I also want to know which expert is so capable!"

Song Ruozhen pondered before speaking. Her mother had already suffered a great shock today. If she woke up and found out that she had dug up this place, she would probably faint from fright again. It would be better to catch this fraudster first, so that her mother could feel at ease.

Song Zhiyu was puzzled. Why did it seem like his fifth sister was saying those words through gritted teeth?

The woman took out a talisman and hid it under a tree. A faint golden light emanated from it, instantly enveloping the surging Yin energy. Upon closer inspection, the Yin energy was faintly tinged with red, showing a tendency to evolve into blood-red energy.

If this is not resolved soon, the Song family will surely encounter a series of misfortunes.

As the Yin energy was suppressed, Song Zhiyu felt the original chill disappear and he became warm again.

"I've been feeling particularly cold and eerie whenever I pass by this place lately. I felt that way just now, but it seems to be gone now?"

Song Zhiyu couldn't see any malevolent aura; he only felt that the place, which had previously been eerie and unsettling, had now become comfortable and at ease.

"Who lives over there?" Song Ruozhen looked at the courtyard not far from the lotus pond, where a faint aura of death lingered.

"It's my eldest brother!" Song Zhiyu looked at Song Ruozhen with concern. "Fifth sister, if you're not feeling well, why don't you go inside and rest? So many things have happened today, don't bother yourself."

He originally thought that his fifth sister was as carefree as she seemed and didn't care about the annulment of the engagement, but now she has even forgotten where her eldest brother lives. Isn't this because she has been stimulated?

"No wonder there was a faint aura of death; it turns out they wanted to commit suicide." Song Ruozhen muttered to herself. "But thankfully, the aura of death isn't strong, so they won't die for now, and we don't need to worry about it."

Upon hearing this, Song Zhiyu exclaimed: "!!!"

My older brother wants to commit suicide!

Fifth Sister said she won't die for now and we don't need to worry about her?!

My goodness!

Song Yi'an arrived at the place with the help of servants. Seeing that his younger sister seemed to be about to destroy the house, he was surprised. His sister had just caused a great disturbance at the Marquis's mansion and almost destroyed it. Now she was planning to destroy the house again.

"Second brother, have you acquired anything new lately?"

Song Ruozhen looked Song Yi'an over. His forehead was dark and his eyes were faintly red, which was a sign of impending bloodshed.

He didn't look like this when we first met, but in such a short time, his appearance has changed again.
