After the two got married, he changed his name to Wan Qingyuan and cut off contact with his hometown.

He had a good life in the first two years, but gradually, he discovered something was wrong...

Mr. Wan has no children, so he has only one daughter, Wan Shiniang. There are many male children in the branch of Wan family, including several brothers of Mr. Wan who are the same mother. Almost every household has sons.

So many pairs of eyes are staring at the position of the head of the family, fighting openly and secretly to master the secret recipe of tribute tea, but after so many years, Wanshi Nianghu is still standing, while the other cousins ​​are all suppressed and submissive by her.

of.

Some of the disobedient ones will always die in mysterious ways.

Others don't know the reason for this, but he knows it clearly.

Wan Shiniang's confidence and strength are all due to the small box in her hand...

The strange insects kept in this small box were so terrifying that when Wan Qingyuan recalled the scenes he had seen before, he couldn't help but tremble like chaff, with chills running down his spine!

…

It’s New Year’s Eve in a blink of an eye.

After breakfast, Mrs. Sun prepared the sacrificial objects, put them in a basket, and put them in Da'an's hands.

Da An was carrying the basket, while Xiao An was sitting with Feng'er, who was wearing a velvet hat and small gloves, on his shoulders. The three of them walked out of the yard together.

After meeting Yang Yongjin and Dabao from the fifth room at the door, they went into the village together to go to the old house.

This morning I have to go to the mountains to worship my ancestors. When I come back in the afternoon, I have to go to the Tutu Temple in the south of the village to burn incense and have New Year's Eve dinner at night.

However, Yang Huazhong and Yang Huazhou have not returned from Leigang Town...

In the old house, Yang Yongxian was standing in front of the Eight Immortals table in the main room, counting the sacrificial objects. Next to him, Yang Yongzhi, Yang Yongqing, and Yang Yongbai were standing there waiting patiently.

Old Yangtou sat aside, biting the tobacco stick in his mouth, but not smoking. He looked at the door of the hall from time to time, looking absent-minded.

When he saw Da'an and the others coming in, but Yang Huazhong and Yang Huazhou were nowhere to be seen, the old man frowned.

"What? Your father and fifth uncle haven't come back yet?" Lao Yangtou asked.

Daan nodded lightly: "When we left, they hadn't come back yet."

Old Yangtou said: "I said hello when I left before. No matter if I can't find it, I have to come back for the New Year. Why haven't you come back yet? Could it be that something has delayed you?"

Da'an said: "Maybe I'll come back later, as long as I can make it before the New Year's Eve dinner."

Lao Yangtou didn't say anything, put away the dry tobacco pole, stood up, and said to everyone: "Everyone is here, right? Let's set off as soon as we are here."

Yang Yongjin said: "Master, Fourth Uncle and the others..."

Old Yangtou's face darkened: "People whose names have been removed from the family tree have been removed, so why mention them?"

Yang Yongjin shut up. It seems that his anger has not subsided yet. It is better not to mention it now, so as not to get burned.

Just like that, Lao Yangtou led all the young and old men of Lao Yang's family out of the house and walked to the mountains behind the village.

When we reached the foot of the mountain, we happened to meet Blacksmith Luo and his friends.

Blacksmith Luo walked in front carrying a basket, and behind him, Baobao Luo walked arm in arm with another slender and beautiful young girl.

"That girl is a bit unfamiliar. Which family is she from? Why go to the mountain with the Luo family to burn incense?" Old Yang narrowed his eyes and couldn't help but ask the other people around him.

Yang Yongxian and the others were also a little confused, and Xiao An spoke.

"That's Yu'er. My sister brought her back from Yuncheng a few years ago and raised her in the Luo family as her adopted sister." Xiao An said.

"Ah? Is she the girl who came back with Chen'er? I didn't expect that she would grow into a big girl after not seeing each other for a few years!" Old Yangtou suddenly realized.

It’s good to have money. Wherever you go, you see homeless children and bring them back to raise them. Hey, it would be great if all the kindness and kindness of Qing girl can be used in Lao Yang’s family!

"So it's Yu'er? I also have an impression." Yang Yongzhi said.

"Yu'er doesn't seem to stay in the village often, does she?" he asked again.

Xiao An said: "Yu'er has relatives in the mountains. She stays at her relatives' houses most of the time. She only comes back during the New Year and festivals. She didn't come here for the New Year last year. This year she must be meeting my sister, brother-in-law, and

Chen'er and the others are not at home to celebrate the New Year, and the house is deserted, so I came back specifically to spend the New Year with Uncle Luo, Bao Baobao and the others!"

Everyone nodded.

Old Yang glanced at Yu'er, who was approaching from afar, and then at Xiao An. The two of them were about a few years apart in age. Da An was tall and strong, and he had a good job in the military department of Qing'an County, and he was responsible for the rice bowl in the yamen.

.

This girl, Yu'er, is not bad looking and has good temperament. If they can get together, the child they will give birth to in the future will definitely be handsome.

However, the old man then thought again, Yu'er was an orphan, and her family had no help at all. If Xiao An could marry a daughter of an official family in Qing'an County, it would be better for the entire Yang family, so the old man decisively attacked

I gave up the idea of ​​matchmaking.

Soon, Blacksmith Luo and his wife saw Lao Yang's family here, came over to say hello, and walked together for a while.

Compared with Xiao Hua's simplicity and gentleness, and Xiao Duo's bright and lively appearance, Yu'er is relatively cold and indifferent in front of these unfamiliar people.

Even when Yang Yongqing wanted to come over to greet her, Yu'er just glanced at Yang Yongqing coldly and stood on the other side of Luo Baobao.

The look in his eyes was not only distant, but also warning. This gave Yang Yongqing a hard time and he had to retreat.

"Young boy, you are now your father's son, so don't think about those ridiculous ideas. We are all relatives. It would be embarrassing if you were torn apart!"

Yang Yongzhi naturally saw what Yang Yongqing had in mind, and he found an opportunity to hug Yang Yongqing aside and remind him in a low voice.

Yang Yongqing smiled awkwardly, "Third brother, you are serious. I was just enthusiastic and wanted to take the initiative to say hello. Who knew that woman was so unhuman, with a cold face and no face at all? I don't care about it.

!”

Yang Yongzhi patted Yang Yongqing on the shoulder: "That girl is Qing'er's adopted sister. Just be sensible in your own mind."

After saying this, Yang Yongzhi walked back to the crowd.

Yang Yongqing scratched his head, thinking of Yang Ruoqing's fierce look, Yang Yongqing suddenly lost all thoughts about Yu'er.

Suddenly there was a strange feeling in my neck, as if I had been bitten by something.

Yang Yongqing raised his hand and pinched it, and saw a small black insect crushed to pieces by himself. Dark green liquid stuck to his hand, and there was a faint fishy smell.

Yang Yongqing shook the bug away in disgust, picked another leaf and wiped his fingers, cursed, turned around and returned to the crowd, and continued on his way.

A group of people were walking halfway when a familiar call suddenly came from behind.

"It's me, Mr. Ga and Mr. Wu Ga, who are back!"

Luo Baobao had sharp eyes and recognized it immediately, and shouted even more excitedly.

Everyone stopped, and Old Yangtou took the lead and took a few steps to the foot of the mountain to greet them.

"Third and fifth, I thought you wouldn't be able to come back in time to celebrate the New Year, but you didn't expect to come back. It's great!" Old Yangtou said excitedly.
Chapter completed!
