Chapter 10 Ancestral Hall
"Miss." Su Yuheng was thinking when the voice of the maid Bai Lu came from outside the door.
"Come in."
Hearing the voice, Bai Lu pushed the door open and walked in front of Su Yuheng's couch. She whispered, "Miss, this cousin is really impatient. Tian Shuang's few sarcastic words made her completely crazy."
Su Yuheng narrowed his eyes slightly, curled his lips and smiled: "It's right that you can't hold your temper."
In her previous life, she had been with Liu Jinshu day and night for so long, how could she not know her temperament.
She is impetuous, impatient, vain, and concerned about reputation. After returning to the Marquis' Mansion, she is always eager to show off.
She always wanted Su Yanqiu and Su Yuhuan to be around her, but she was afraid that her identity would be exposed.
In this life, she knew her weakness and took advantage of it.
"Then what?" Su Yuheng asked.
Bai Lu pursed her lips and said, "After Miss Tianshuang left, this cousin was so angry that she smashed all the tea sets on the table and even..."
She paused for a moment, "He not only scolded the eldest master, but also scolded you, the young lady."
"Miss Tianshuang followed my cousin's wishes and informed her that her name was in the Su family tree. She also told her that the tree was in the Su family ancestral hall. I don't know what my cousin will do next."
Su Yuheng curled his lips slightly and sneered, "It would be strange if the Su family tree was in the ancestral hall."
"Bai Lu, please go out first. We will wait for you tonight."
"Wait?" Bai Lu was a little confused.
Su Yuheng said: "Of course, I'll wait until she touches my second brother's bottom line."
"Yes, Miss." After Bai Lu left the room, Su Yuheng closed her eyes and rested again.
Late at night, the Su family was silent. In the west wing of Fangfei Courtyard, Liu Jinshu was lying on the couch, tossing and turning, unable to sleep.
Her mind was filled with scenes of Su Yanqiu and Su Yuheng getting along.
Su Yanqiu has never looked at her straight in the eye, and she has never even seen her grandmother.
She turned over and sat up in bed, took out a puppet from under the pillow, and then stabbed the puppet with a needle.
"Bitch, if you hadn't taken my identity, how could I be like this? It's all because of you!"
"Why do you have the right to have your brother, mother, and everyone surrounding you? And now you're showing off in front of me how many gifts your brother gave you."
"Your name is actually still in our Su family tree. What qualifications do you have? You lowly thing!"
The puppet was covered with densely packed small holes. Liu Jinshu looked at his now simple room and thought of Su Yuheng's room.
Thinking of what Tianshuang said and the looks the servants in the mansion gave her, she suddenly became angry.
Today, when she was strolling around the mansion, a maidservant or nanny who appeared from nowhere spoke to her in a sarcastic and weird manner.
They mocked her, "You're really from that shabby place called Yongzhou, trying to get money from the Marquis' Mansion. As soon as you get here, you want to live in the Marquis' Mansion as a legitimate daughter. You don't even take a piss to see what kind of person you are. You look so shabby."
"I think he's here to take advantage of me."
Those sarcastic words entered her ears and she really couldn't bear it anymore.
Liu told her that if she stayed with Su Yuheng and imitated her for a year at most, she would make Su Yuheng's life a living hell, and she could reap the benefits.
But now, after only a few days, she felt like she was being driven crazy by jealousy.
Liu Jinshu felt more and more uncomfortable thinking about the treatment he had received in the Marquis' Mansion in the past few days.
She suddenly stood up from the chair, then walked to the wardrobe to find a dark-colored dress, then walked out of the room and headed towards the Su family ancestral hall.
Su Yuheng's name and birth date are in the family tree, and she wants to get Su Yuheng's birth date.
Although Liu said that Su Yuheng was born on the same day as her, the time of birth was different.
After Liu Jinshu left the west wing, the yard was pitch black, with only sporadic lights in the corridor illuminating the flowers and plants in the yard.
She left Fangfei Courtyard, walked around the long corridor, and arrived at the Su Family Ancestral Hall.
At this moment, inside the Su family ancestral hall, only a faint yellow candlelight could be seen shining out from inside.
The first step she took into the ancestral hall, she felt a little creepy and a chill came over her.
She stopped immediately, relaxed for a moment, and was about to go in again when she heard footsteps behind her.
It should be a patrolling guard.
She quickly retreated and found a secluded place to hide.
Not long after, two guards in black came from the north.
A guard said, "The prince said that this ancestral hall must be inspected every hour. No one is allowed to enter. If we are discovered entering, neither you nor I will survive."
Another guard was a little curious: "Brother Wang, what exactly is this ancestral hall? Why does the prince care so much about it?"
The guard called Brother Wang rolled his eyes at the guard next to him and said, "It's not for us subordinates to find out. We just need to patrol."
As the two guards spoke, they strode into the ancestral hall.
Liu Jinshu hid in the dark and kept observing the movements in front of the ancestral hall. After about a quarter of an hour, two guards came out.
One of the guards just left the ancestral hall and started to retch, holding his stomach.
"It's really disgusting and horrible."
Another guard said, "Don't forget, we are all people who took the prince's medicine."
"If you are not careful and displease the prince, you will be reduced to bones. Let's go. You don't have to follow me in next time."
Looking at the two guards' receding backs, Liu Jinshu frowned slightly, feeling a little unbelievable.
"What's inside this ancestral hall? It's so mysterious. Could it be that my second brother has some shameful secret?"
Thinking of this, Liu Jinshu came out from the dark place, looked around, and when he saw that there was no one around, he went towards the ancestral hall.
There were only a few candles lit in the ancestral hall. At the front was a tablet for the ancestors, and in front of the table were incense, candles, and some fruits and food offered to the ancestors.
It was no different from other ancestral halls. The only thing that made her feel different was that when she stood in the hall, she could hear a faint and hoarse voice, like a man's.
The sound is very small. If you don't listen carefully, you can't hear it at all.
It seems like he is calling for help.
"Never mind, let's find the family tree first."
Liu Jinshu looked around and searched the altar for a long time but couldn't find the family tree.
"Didn't Tianshuang say that the family tree was in the ancestral hall? How could it not be there? It's impossible."
"If the family tree is not in the ancestral hall, where is it?"
How could Liu Jinshu give up without finding the family tree? She lifted her skirt, walked around the altar and went straight into the ancestral hall.
Just after taking a few steps inside, I felt that subtle and hoarse voice entering my ears again.
She frowned and stopped, looking in the direction of the sound, and saw a table to the north with a Buddha statue on it.
The Buddha was very strange; she had never seen him before.
"Is that where the sound came from?"
She stared at the Buddha statue for a moment and suddenly felt something was wrong.
This is not a Buddha statue, it's clearly a ghost.
"Second brother... Second brother actually enshrined such a thing in the ancestral temple."
She opened her eyes wide with fear and was about to leave when the hoarse voice became louder and louder.
"wrong."
"This is a Buddha, not a ghost, but where does this sound come from?"
Liu Jinshu thought about it, mustered up the courage and was about to get closer to take a closer look.
She felt someone approaching from behind her, and when she turned around, she met a stern face.
The man stretched out a hand and suddenly grabbed her neck, his voice cold and chilling.
"Who let you in? You're looking for death!"
