Chapter 176: The resentment of fallen leaves returning to their roots
Gong Minglou's impression of his brother-in-law is that of a scholar who is always showing off his knowledge.
But the person in front of him had a messy beard, red eyes, and his hair, which was usually meticulously groomed, was now so messy that it looked like a chicken coop on his head.
I haven't seen you for just a few days, and you've become so thin.
"Why are you here? Does Rongrong know? How is she? How is mother? Is my third brother's wife okay?" Qin Sixian rushed to his brother-in-law and asked several questions in a row.
When the third brother got into trouble last night, he sent someone to rush back to Beijing to report the news.
I thought about my mother and siblings at home, who would definitely not be able to bear such bad news, but I had to tell them.
On this day, he was anxious about his father's burial, grieving over his brother's death, and worried about his mother, younger siblings, and younger sister in the capital.
The whole person felt like he had walked through hell several times.
Gong Minglou felt sorry for his brother-in-law and said hurriedly, "Rongrong is fine. Mother is ill. I have invited the imperial physician to come to the house. My eldest and second sisters-in-law will take care of my mother.
My third brother's wife's mother and sister have gone to the mansion to accompany her. I have also asked someone to help with my father-in-law's matter, so don't worry."
In the end, he never asked where his brother-in-law's body was.
Not to mention that the Qin family couldn't accept it, he couldn't accept it either. A good person was gone just like that.
Qin Sixian then turned his gaze away from Gong Minglou and looked at Shi Yu and Wei Qingyan beside him.
He hurriedly bowed and saluted, "Your humble servant greets His Majesty. Thank you for coming to help."
He thought Shi Yu was the helper invited by Gong Minglou.
He had heard that Prince Rong was a skilled martial artist.
However, it seems that my father’s coffin cannot be solved by force.
Although the martial arts skills of the bodyguards and monks he hired were not as good as those of Prince Rong, Prince Rong might not be able to do what they could not do together.
But he appreciated the kindness.
Shi Yu knew he had misunderstood, so he said nothing more and said, "Let's go over and take a look first."
Wei Qingyan's gaze had already fallen on the coffin not far away.
The entire coffin was shrouded in black air.
Even before he got close, Wei Qingyan could already sense the thick resentment that seemed to be destroying the world.
She walked to the edge of the pit, placed her slender fingers on the upright coffin, and shouted coldly, "Chen Changshan, you have an obsession in your heart that you cannot explain to your children and grandchildren, yet you want to endanger innocent lives because of it. How can this be justified?
I sign a contract with you today, promising to resolve your grievances, but you must not hurt others recklessly again. Today's actions will have consequences tomorrow, and there will be a definite outcome. "Go on."
"Who are you……"
Before Qin Sixian could finish his words, he saw the coffin, which had been unable to fall down at all, slowly lying in the pit under the light push of the young girl's fingers.
"This...this...what's going on?"
Qin Sixian's gloomy face was full of shock and some other emotions.
A servant said that according to folk saying, if the coffin cannot be lifted, it means the deceased is reluctant to leave and is unwilling to be buried, which means that the deceased is reluctant to leave the world.
He didn't believe this nonsense.
It was his father who wanted to return to his roots, and he was just fulfilling his father's last wish.
Besides, the dead should be buried in peace.
But the monk and the Taoist priest were helpless, as the third brother was in trouble again.
He just wanted to settle his father down as soon as possible and then bring his third brother's body back to Beijing.
If you didn't believe it originally, you can only try to believe it.
He and his second brother knelt down, saying countless nice things to their father. He even suspected that they had misunderstood their father's meaning.
My father is dead and cannot reply to their words, or perhaps he cannot even hear them.
The situation hasn't improved at all.
But does this scene mean that my father understands and that he is the one who caused all this?
He was not afraid of the trouble, but his third brother lost his life.
Wei Qingyan had resolved many grievances with the fat monk, so he naturally understood what Qin Sixian was thinking at this moment.
Explained, "When a person dies, they have no soul, only unconscious obsessions. Over time, obsessions turn into resentment, and resentment harms their family."
After saying that, she closed her eyes and looked at Shen Changshan's resentful expression.
Gong Minglou hurriedly pulled Qin Sixian aside and told him about the Gong family's resolution of the grudge, as well as the fact that Qin and Madam Qin had personally gone to invite Wei Qingyan. "Rongrong and my sister-in-law went to invite Miss Chang. She came to resolve the grudge between us and our father-in-law."
Seeing Qin Sixian standing there motionless, he thought for a moment and explained, "My father-in-law didn't mean to harm his children and grandchildren. He didn't know he would harbor resentment before he died, and he couldn't control his resentment."
He had experienced it and understood the importance of this explanation.
There is a huge difference between unconsciousness and consciousness.
What's more, his brother-in-law lost his life because of this. When he first learned that his son died because of his father's resentment, he hated his father in his heart.
He patted his brother-in-law's back, which was so thin and bony, and comforted him silently.
But this explanation didn't seem to have any effect on Qin Sixian.
He suddenly looked up to the sky and roared, "They are talking about you in private, but I don't believe it, I don't believe it.
My third brother just got married, and he’s not even a father yet. Why, why are you so cruel?
Ah, why are you doing this, father? How can you explain this to your mother and your third brother and his wife?
If you want something, you can tell your son. Even if it costs him his life, he will do his best to help you. Why are you making such a fuss..."
The man's voice was sad and shrill, but it gradually faded away.
The servants who were on night watch in the straw hut couldn't help but come over.
Gong Minglou looked at them and asked, "Where is my second brother?"
A man replied, "My dear, the Second Master is at the house at the foot of the mountain, guarding the Third Master."
The house at the foot of the mountain is a sunken house built by my father-in-law a few years ago, not far from here.
"You guys go back to the house first. Don't say a word about what happened tonight, or I will not let you off easily."
Miss Chang's ability to resolve grudges is hidden from others. It's not good to have these servants around.
What's more, the resentment of the father-in-law cannot be told to others.
After thinking for a moment, he added, "Tell my second brother that the coffin issue has been taken care of. Tell him to stay away for now and have a good rest. We will go to the house tomorrow morning."
The servants received the order and left.
After Wei Qingyan finished watching the scene and saw that Qin Sixian had almost vented his emotions, he asked, "Master Qin, do you want to resolve this grudge?"
Qin Sixian was mature beyond his years. He later became a doctor at the Imperial College and was later promoted to the position of chief academic officer of the Imperial College. Now at the age of thirty, he behaves like an old scholar.
He has his own way of doing things and may not be willing to listen to her.
She reached a contract with the dead, but if the living did not believe it and were unwilling to cooperate, there was nothing she could do.
"If the grudge is resolved, can my third brother come back to life?" Qin Sixian was still kneeling on the ground with his head lowered.
"cannot."
Wei Qingyan's voice was cold, "But if the grudge is not resolved, more people will die in the Qin family."
If the living person is unwilling, the contract will be terminated, but the resentment will continue to hurt people.
Qin Sixian didn't say anything else, and the atmosphere fell into silence.
Just when Gong Minglou was getting anxious, the thin man stood up and bowed deeply to Wei Qingyan, "Please, young lady, save my Qin family."
He had never heard of resolving a grudge.
But Thaksin and Gong Minglou were classmates and colleagues for many years, and later became relatives.
He was aware of the changes in the Gong family.
Gong Jin recovered from his illness, and his sister, who had been unable to bear children, became pregnant with twins.
The girl in front of me was invited by my sister when she was pregnant. As soon as she arrived, she easily knocked down her father's coffin.
All these forced him to cooperate in resolving the grievances.
Although at this moment, the hatred in his heart towards his father made him think viciously, let him be trapped by the obsession for generations to come.
But the result would be that the Qin family would suffer.
Wei Qingyan stared at him for a moment. "As far as I know, Shen Changshan only lived in Furong County when he was young, but grew up in the North. Why do you think he meant this place when he said "fallen leaves return to their roots"?
Hearing this, Qin Sixian's pale face suddenly turned blue-gray.
