Two days later, Xiangping woke up. Seeing Xiniang, Mazi and others sitting around the bed, he sat up with a pale face and asked, "Where's Sister Gu? Why didn't she come?"
"She was busy with the Liang family's funeral arrangements with the prince, and has been busy these days, Miss Xiangping. You have been unconscious for two days and finally woke up." The matchmaker touched her bulging pregnant belly and had to take care of the unconscious patient.
"So that's how it is. How is Xiaoyu now?" Xiangping really couldn't imagine what Xiaoyu would become after losing Liang Xu. Everyone thought that Xiaoyu had finally found happiness, but they didn't expect such a disaster to happen suddenly.
"Xiaoyu hasn't slept for several days and nights. She is preparing for the funeral of her husband." The bridesmaid thought that this tragedy was also caused by Ding Ning's impulse. To be honest, that boy really didn't know right from wrong. He killed the entire Liang family, more than 30 people, just because others made a few random comments about him. He is now wanted by the government, but Ding Ning is a martial arts master. He hid in the mountains and forests, and those people in the government office can't do anything to him.
"I'll go see her."
Xiangping got up, put on her orange dress, casually tied her braids on her head, put on a pair of bell earrings and went out. She happened to meet Xueer, and the two of them went to Liang Xu's grave in the back mountain together. So many people in the Liang family were buried in the back mountain, and the funeral was also held in a very low-key manner.
"Xue'er, do you think Ding Ning will appear again?" Xiang Ping looked at the scene in front of her with helplessness and despair. It was the first time she felt that death was such a sad thing.
"I don't know. Lord Ji has been working with the people in the government office to catch him, but to no avail." Xue'er gave a helpless smile. The Snow Wolf lay obediently beside her. It seemed to smell something and turned its head away, but there was nothing.
"Snow Wolf, have you discovered anything?" Xue'er has been communicating with Snow Wolf these past few days. If he smells Ding Ning's scent, he must react immediately.
"Woo..." The snow wolf just made a few strange whimpers and continued to lie on the ground.
That night, Gu Yunru lit a white candle by the window sill, and watched Rong Zhen, who was worried, sitting at the table and drinking silently. She walked over and gently touched his shoulder to comfort him.
"Husband, please don't blame yourself anymore. It's not your fault that you didn't arrive in time. You also tried your best to chase her." Gu Yunru knew that Rong Zhen felt guilty about this matter and had been unable to sleep or eat, but what had happened had already happened, and feeling guilty was of no use.
"Madam..." Rong Zhen suddenly held Gu Yunru's hand tightly, like a child who had no sense of security.
"Yeah, I'm here."
"I don't know why, I feel very scared..." Rong Zhen's old illness began to flare up again. Gu Yunru had never seen him so scared before. The real Rong Zhen was always fearless, but after what happened with Liang Xu, he became irritable and restless.
"My husband, this matter is really not your fault. There is no need for you to take all the blame on yourself. I know you are under a lot of pressure..."
"What if I can't find Ding Ning? What will Xiaoyu think? I, Xiaoyu, finally found happiness, but it was ruined by Ding Ning. I think I am also responsible." Rong Zhen looked at Gu Yunru uneasily, and his mental state seemed to be on the verge of collapse.
"Husband..." Gu Yunru didn't know what to say. She looked at him with her mouth open, and her words became inconsistent. She just chose to stay by his side safely.
The next morning, Xiaoyu, dressed in white and with a white velvet flower on her head, returned to the Liang Mansion after handling her family's funeral. She sat blankly in the hall, saying nothing. When the maid next to her asked her questions, she did not answer, and she looked like she had lost her soul.
"Madam, the agent of the owner of Huajianlou sent a letter today, saying that you should come to Huajianlou when you are free." The maid quietly looked up at her. Xiaoyu was still sitting there with a blank expression. The maid thought she didn't want to go, so she wanted to reply, but Xiaoyu stopped her unexpectedly.
"Get washed and dressed, I'll go today." Xiaoyu knew that she hadn't dressed up properly in the past few days, and her face looked dull and ugly, like a yellow-faced woman.
"Oh, okay." The girl nodded her head and agreed obediently. That night, Xiangping was busy in the kitchen, making many dishes that Xiaoyu liked and placed them on the round table. Everyone sat quietly by the side.
"Xiao Yu, this is your favorite braised mandarin fish!" Gu Yunru enthusiastically placed a large piece of fish on Xiao Yu's plate. If it were any other time, she would have laughed out loud with joy, but today the atmosphere seemed unusually weird.
Xiaoyu seemed to have aged a lot overnight, and her hair had a few more silver strands. The story was no longer acceptable to Xiaoyu. If Liang Xu had not come back, she might have been able to remarry.
"Thank you, boss." Xiaoyu forced a grateful smile, but everyone noticed how forced her smile was. Gu Yunru rolled her eyes around.
"Xiao Yu, you have been the only one taking care of the funeral affairs of the Liang family during this period of time. What do you plan to do in the future?" Gu Yunru looked at Xiao Yu in front of him and asked gently.

"What else can I do? I also have things to deal with at Su Mu Zhai. During this period, my master asked me to study a lot of recipes. I am busy keeping vigil and cooking every day. After walking around in the kitchen, I feel much calmer."
Gu Yunru looked at Xiangping who was sitting next to her. It turned out that the method she used was to divert Xiaoyu's attention. This method was very effective for a while. Xiaoyu seemed to be sublimated. He spoke slowly and ate slowly.
"Um... Xiaoyu, don't worry. Ji Heng will keep tracking Ding Ning's whereabouts. You don't have to worry." Gu Yunru's face was full of worry, and Xiaoyu nodded. "I came here today for this matter. Big brother, if you really find his whereabouts, remember to tell me. I will personally see how he died. If you can let me do it, it would be great."
Xiangping shuddered all over. Xiaoyu was emitting a chill from his body. Although this chill was not innate, no one dared to approach him because the powerful aura made people feel scared.
