He Qingshen sighed softly: "You are said to be compassionate, yet you are so cruel to the eldest daughter of the Xia family, and you are said to have evil thoughts, but you are so accommodating to Dr.

"I don't care about people."

……

Xia Wanrou was changing clothes in her room when the clan leader of the Shi clan suddenly broke into the yard and dragged her from the room to the ancestral hall.

She was frightened by such a formation and cried loudly: "What are you doing? Let me go..."

The dark blue cheongsam she was wearing hadn't been changed yet, and she hadn't had time to take off the golden jewelry on her head.

Everyone looked at her harshly.

"My ancestors passed away. As a daughter-in-law of the Shi family, you are not allowed to wear clothes other than black and white, and you are not allowed to have any patterns on your clothes. You need to remove earrings, headwear, hand accessories, and neck accessories. You are not allowed to wear heavy makeup. The second young lady is guilty of unfilial piety. It’s a big no-no, mark twenty as a warning.”

Xia Wanrou's face was shocked. Before she could recover, a ruler fell on her.

She screamed in pain: "Ah..."

Xia Qingrou slept for a while, and when she opened her eyes, it was just past five o'clock. At this time, the sound of gongs and left drums was heard outside. She was no longer sleepy, so she simply got up.

When he opened the door, he saw Xu Cong and Chu Chen, Gao Xiangrong and Gu Jinli sitting at the door.

One is sitting upright, one is holding a cigarette in his hand, one is leaning on the other's leg and taking a nap, and the other is leaning against the wall and snoring.

Xia Qingrou asked, dumbfounded, "Why are you sitting here?"

As soon as she spoke, the two who were asleep rolled to the ground, and the two who were awake stood up, turned their heads, and then simply turned around.

Xu Cong straightened his clothes and said, "Dr. Xia, it's not yet dawn, why did you come out?"

Gu Jinli said, "Yes, the funeral doesn't start until six o'clock."

While talking, Gu Jinli put out his cigarette.

"I took a nap and you...have been sitting here?" Xia Qingrou walked out and looked at Chu Chen and Gao Xiangrong who stood up from the ground.

The two of them were bleary-eyed, looking like they could fall to the ground and continue sleeping at any time.

Xu Cong said: "The eldest young master asked us to stay here and guard."

"Let you stay here and guard." Xia Qingrou pointed at herself subconsciously: "Guard me?"

The other three nodded at the same time.

Xu Cong quickly explained: "Shi's family is too talkative and they are afraid that others will disturb Dr. Xia's rest."

Xia Qingrou's heart warmed. Although Xu Cong said that, she knew that Shi Fuxun was afraid that someone would do harm to her.

"Thank you. You guys should go down and rest quickly. I can handle it on my own." Xia Qingrou really didn't want to trouble others anymore, so she said to them with a grateful look on her face.

At this moment, a cannon fired into the sky and made a loud "boom" sound.

The four men turned their heads and looked at the sky.

Chu Chen rubbed his eyes and said, "The old lady is about to be buried in the coffin."

"It's time to prepare for the funeral."

"I'll go out and take a look." Xia Qingrou suddenly felt a little reluctant.

The old lady treated her well, but she felt very guilty for letting her leave with regret.

She walked out of the courtyard, followed by several men.

After walking out of this straight corridor, I suddenly saw Xia Wanrou being helped out from another road. There was blood on the corner of her mouth, her face was slightly haggard, her hair was a little messy, and her dark blue cheongsam was stained with blood. .

She was almost carried away by the servants, as if she had been severely injured.

Of course, the makeup on her face was also brought into her eyes by Xia Qingrou.

Xia Qingrou deliberately stopped and glanced at Xia Wanrou from top to bottom.

Gao Xiangrong, who was no-nonsense, was the first to come over and ask, "Oh, what happened to Miss Xia? She was beaten like this?"

The tribesman walking behind said with a straight face: "Master Gao, I made you laugh."

"The back injury was caused by the punishment of the Shi family's ruler." Chu Chen said with his chin propped up.

When Xia Qingrou heard this, her brows suddenly raised: "Old lady, you dress like this before your bones are cold. Outsiders know that this is a great act of unfilial piety. As the second young lady of the Shi family, you can make such a low-level and stupid mistake. As a member of the Xia family, I am really ashamed of having a descendant of the Xia family like you."

"Who do you think you are!" Xia Wanrou's chest was filled with anger, suddenly provoked by Xia Qingrou.

Xia Wanrou, who was already very angry, was now insulted by Xia Qingrou, which made her want to go up and tear Xia Qingrou's gloating face off.

After yelling, she rushed towards Xia Qingrou.

The servant who was supporting her didn't react and was suddenly dragged out by Xia Wanrou.

When Xia Qingrou saw this scene, she immediately raised her hand and slammed it on Xia Wanrou's face.

"Snapped!"

"Ah!" Xia Qingrou slapped her away before Xia Wanrou could fight back.

The servant next to her quickly stepped forward and grabbed Xia Wanrou's arm: "Second Young Mistress, the eldest young master wants you to attend the funeral in the front yard on time."

"Don't I know?" Xia Wanrou turned her head, pushed away the servant next to her, and cursed angrily: "Who are you? How dare you speak to me in this tone? If you don't want to do it anymore, you should just look at me. You think I'm easy to bully, but I'm telling you, no matter what, I am still the second young mistress of the Shi family, so you can only serve me like a dog."

After letting out her anger, Xia Wanrou turned to glare at Xia Qingrou. Then, she smiled "hehehe" and said: "That's right, you can only watch me being the second young mistress of the Shi family, even if it's me. I have accepted the rules of the Shi family because I am a member of the Shi family. And you, don’t think that Shi Fuxun can protect you for a while. He cannot protect you for the rest of your life. Moreover, with your weight, you are not qualified to marry. When you come to the Shi family, it's not just the two of you who wish each other to last forever. You have to get the nod of the elders of the Shi family before you can consummate your marriage. Otherwise, the Shi family's household registration will not recognize you."

Thinking of this, the evil spirit in Xia Wanrou's chest dissipated a lot.

The mistress of the Shi family was sad at this point. An outstanding man like Shi Fuxun must marry a daughter of the same family as him, or else a princess of royal blood.

But when Xia Qingrou heard these words, she felt that Xia Wanrou's mind was still the same as six years ago, and what she saw was always superficial.

She glanced at Xia Wanrou coldly: "The Shi family has recognized you, are you happy?"

Xia Wanrou's pupils trembled fiercely. It had to be said that Xia Qingrou's words were like a sharp arrow, hitting her heart directly.

Yes, although she is now the second young lady of the Shi family, the younger generations of the Shi family have to respectfully call her "the second young lady", but what's the use.

The husband she is married to now is just a vegetative person who will never wake up. He knows how well he is and only she can understand whether he is good or not.

However... just as Xia Qingrou said, she was not happy, not happy.

She is also a normal woman who needs love.
