Xie Yuning and Lu Jiuan looked at Ye Linlang worriedly. Once Xie Qian died, Ye Linlang would definitely hear many more unpleasant words at the funeral. By then... could she bear it?

Under the joint protection of Xie Yuning and Lu Jiuan, the two servants not only failed to make a complaint, but also lost their jobs and left in disgrace.

Xie Yuning carried the packed things and said to Ye Linlang, "Linlang, stay at Xie's house with your sister-in-law tonight and come back tomorrow morning."

"Okay." Ye Linlang responded.

Xie Yuning added: "If it doesn't matter to you, you don't have to take it to heart."

"good."

After Xie Yuning left, Ye Linlang and Lu Jiuan rested at Xie's house.

Unlike Ye Linlang who slept soundly, Lu Jiuan did not sleep much all night.

Xie Yuning and Xie Xuning were on guard, and they really had to stay up all night.

In this cold winter weather, it is indeed too cold for people to sit quietly for a whole night.

Lu Jiuan didn't want Xie Yuning to catch a cold, so fortunately Ye Linlang prepared ginger tea for them to dispel the cold.

On a stormy night, Xie Yuning drove to the hospital morgue.

The funeral will not officially begin until the seventh day of the Lunar New Year, and the mourning hall has not yet been set up.

According to custom, after an elderly person dies, a vigil must be held.

Xie Yuning and Xie Xuning were also sitting in the corridor outside the hospital morgue to keep watch.

There is heating in other parts of the hospital, so it's not that cold.

But there is no heating near the morgue.

Xie Yuning and Xie Xuning sat in front of a temporary honeycomb coal stove to keep vigil.

There was a teapot on the stove, and the two of them drank some hot water from time to time to warm themselves.

The corridor was so empty that even if the coals had been burning all night, there would still be no warmth.

"Xuning, pay more attention to Linlang these days and don't let those blind people run up to her and talk nonsense."

Xie Yuning and Lu Jiuan are both very clear-headed people, and are certainly not the kind of people who blindly follow others.

They knew Ye Linlang's character very well. She would take revenge when she had a grudge and repay kindness when she had a favor.

A drop of kindness should be repaid with a spring of gratitude. This is Ye Linlang's kindness.

Just because of what Xie Qian had done, it was impossible for Xie Yuning and the other two to pretend to be blind and shamelessly ask Ye Linlang to treat Xie Qian.

They don't have faces that big.

"Brother, don't worry, I know what's going on."

Xie Yuning gently rubbed his temples and said exhaustedly, "Of the three of us brothers, you're the only one who's in a free love relationship. Xuning, you need to know who's the most important person to you. Don't let a few words from others sow discord between you and Linlang create a rift. Linlang is a good girl, and the Ye family is a good in-law. You and Linlang should live your own lives peacefully. Others can say whatever they want. Living your own life well is the most important thing."

When Xie Xuning heard Xie Yuning's words, he felt both warm and bitter in his heart.

True family members always care about each other sincerely.

"Big brother, thank you." Xie Xuning paused and said worriedly, "I wonder if Second Brother can make it back tomorrow?"

Xie Yuning closed his eyes slightly and said softly, "It doesn't matter whether I come back or not."

Xie Qian's selfish desires have left Xie Jining with nothing.

If he doesn't come back, there's nothing to blame!

Xie Qian's death spread throughout the imperial capital overnight.

Most of the people who were on good terms with Xie Qian had no idea what stupid things Xie Qian had done, and they all gathered together to discuss it.

"Didn't I hear that Xie Laosan's fiancée is a miracle doctor? Why didn't she treat Xie Qian?"
