Chapter 5 Gray Breath



"I understand, mother and son. Don't worry, I'll go right away."

Meng Shichang strode out.

*

In the middle of the night, Leng Yingshuang ran around the house carrying Meng Shuyan.

I found that there was nothing in the house except some broken tables, chairs and furniture.

Could it be that my mother-in-law acted so quickly that she had sold out all the valuable items?

Meng Shuyan didn't know what her grandma had done.

He sighed in his heart that he got this space a little late. Sure enough, his family was still unlucky because of Qiao Qinglu.

If we had gotten it before the gambling house came, at least we could have had some food left.

Finally I went to the kitchen and found about a hundred pounds of rice and flour.

All the remaining oil, salt, sauce and vinegar were taken away, and then she fell asleep uncontrollably again.

The next morning, the house-raiding officers came to the door.

When the Meng brothers and their eldest nephew learned that their house had been raided, they temporarily locked the door of the Leng family's house and rushed back.

Also coming was Qiao Qinglu.

She had just absorbed Meng Shijie's luck yesterday, but was interrupted by Mr. Meng who suddenly passed by.

After Mr. Meng left, his plan was ruined by the eldest son of the Meng family.

Finally, I just went back to sleep.

Tianliang was just about to find another opportunity to absorb some luck when he heard that the Meng family had been ransacked.

After their house was ransacked, the Meng family must have been very angry, scared and sad.

How could she miss such a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity?

Leng Yingshuang hid Nuan Yu under the armpit of her still sleeping daughter. Just as she had wrapped the baby in swaddling clothes, the soldiers who were raiding the house came knocking on the door.

She came out holding Meng Shuyan.

"Everyone come out!"

The soldier shouted with a serious face.

【This guy is really vicious! 】

Meng Shuyan was woken up and saw the soldiers ransacking the house.

Everyone in the Meng family also came out.

Who is this?

Judging from his age, he should be a grandfather, and his aura is a bit gloomy.

[Who is this? There's a faint grey aura about him.]

[That blessed old lady in her early fifties with a gentle glow on her body must be my grandmother.]

[Wow, who are these four young people?

Ouch, they all have a gray aura about them. The gray aura on one of their heads is almost black. It feels really bad.]

Meng Shuyan watched and complained in her heart.

Finally, he glanced at the angry official and concluded, "Are they going to be beaten?"

Leng Yingshuang heard her daughter's thoughts and pretended to comfort her not to be scared, and introduced her to family members.

Others thought she was coaxing the child.

Meng Shuyan nodded in her heart as she listened to her mother's introduction. There were thirteen people in her family.

Mr. Meng is my grandfather’s real name, and coincidentally, he actually has the identity of a man of the family.

He was a capable local landlord, known as Mr. Meng, but his family was now in ruins.

Her father has two brothers. Her father was only twenty years old when his grandparents had him in their old age, so he looks younger than her eldest cousin.

Among my uncle's three sons, only my eldest cousin got married and had two sons.

Her father spoiled her when he had a child in his old age and got married late, and now he just has a daughter like her.

The man whose aura was gray and almost black was her father himself.
