The sound of crying actually made Lin Yan feel sad...
Thinking of Xie Muqing, who had vomited blood all night, a bad feeling suddenly came to her mind!
She hurriedly stood up to go next door, but Lin Zhenghong grabbed her arm.
“Daughter, don’t go over there. You may not know, but the Xie family next door is exiled from the capital. They’ve reportedly committed a serious crime. The officials from the county won’t let us take care of them, saying to leave them to fend for themselves. Alas, it’s pitiful. Now, only the heir of the Xie family’s direct line is left. That heir was already tortured and exiled all the way here. He’s barely human. It’s a miracle he’s survived this long. We’re already overwhelmed with our own affairs, we can’t possibly take care of them.”
The crying next door grew louder and louder.
Lin Yan's brows furrowed even more tightly!
In the book, Xie Muqing died shortly after arriving at his place of exile!
Madam Xie couldn't bear the blow and passed away a few days later...
The Xie family was now mostly comprised of women and children, and with no one to lead the household, things were in complete chaos.
Unfortunately, the women of the Xie family were all very beautiful, which attracted many ill-intentioned men in the city...
When the wives of those men learned of this, they did not punish their husbands.
Instead, they decided to send people to Xiaolin Village.
They set fire to the Xie family's house, intending to burn them all to death.
But that night, the east wind was blowing.
The fire at the Xie family's house was so large that it spread directly to the neighboring houses.
Most of the families in the village were poor, and the majority lived in thatched huts or mud-brick houses.
Soon all the houses caught fire.
That night, not only the Xie family members were burned to death.
Almost everyone in Xiaolin Village died in that fire...
The reason the author wrote these contents is...
It's just to make the "she runs away, he chases, she can't escape" plot of the male and female leads more dramatic and conflict-driven!
Now that she's transmigrated here, she can't allow such a brainless plot written by a brainless author to happen!
Moreover, she wasn't sure herself.
Was it because of her violence last night that Xie Muqing's condition worsened...?
After all, she had broken his hand yesterday.
He was pressed down again, causing him to vomit blood...
If he died so easily because of her.
According to the butterfly effect.
Isn't she the culprit who indirectly caused this series of tragedies?
In that case, she would become a sinner for all time!
Those were hundreds of human lives lost!
Thinking of this, her face suddenly turned deathly pale.
Ignoring Lin Zhenghong's attempts to stop her, she immediately swallowed her pride and hurriedly ran next door to knock on the door.
The woman who opened the door was a woman in her early forties.
Although her face was sallow and haggard, her features were quite good.
It's easy to tell that she must have been a beauty in her youth.
"Is there something you need, young lady?"
Lin Yan didn't know how to answer her.
You can't exactly say you came to stop your son from dying, can you?
She simply grunted in response and strode towards the main room, leaving the woman to jog to catch up.
"Miss, it's not convenient to receive guests inside right now. Please go back."
A group of people were sobbing softly around the bed in the main room. Lin Yan avoided them and walked towards the bed.
To everyone's astonishment, she plopped down on the edge of the bed.
After tilting his head and looking for a while, he directly lifted the blanket off the person on the bed!
"No, young lady!"
As the blanket was pulled back, a series of gasps filled the room…
Madam Xie was so angry that tears streamed down her face, and she wanted to grab the girl by the bedside and pull her away!
But her years of aristocratic upbringing prevented her from doing so, and she could only silently weep and lodge her accusations from the sidelines:
"Girl, how can you be so ill-mannered? My son is about to die, why do you still insult him like this!"
Other members of the Xie family are also making accusations.
But having received years of education, they naturally wouldn't lay a hand on a girl.
All I could do was stand by and watch anxiously.
Today, the Xie family still has more than a dozen members.
Xie Dong, the eldest son of the legitimate wife, and his eldest son Xie Mujing, died in battle two years ago.
He left behind his wife, Madam Xie, and his second son, Xie Muqing.
And her two teenage daughters, Xie Fu and Xie Ya.
Before his death, Xie Mujing left behind a wife, Pei Ling, and two sons and a daughter.
Xie Liang, the son of the second wife, and his eldest son, Xie Ziming, also died in battle two years ago.
He left behind his legitimate daughter Xie Li, his concubine Wang Shi, and his daughter-in-law Lu Yu.
Wang was Xie Liang's concubine, and after his wife passed away, she was elevated to the rank of noble concubine.
She has borne him two sons and a daughter, all of whom are currently minors.
Unfortunately, she encountered a heartless man.
Upon learning that the Xie family's property had been confiscated, he immediately issued a letter of divorce, kicking her and her children out of the house.
Xie Li could only take her four-year-old daughter Xie Yixuan and three-year-old son Xie Ding with her family and be exiled.
The Xie family was different from the other families.
Although Xie Dong and Xie Liang were not born of the same mother, the two brothers had a very good relationship.
Therefore, the sisters-in-law and female relatives in the household got along well.
Now, having gone through exile together, they have become even more united.
Lin Yan pretended not to hear the Xie family's accusations.
Her attention was entirely focused on the boy on the bed.
Completely different from his arrogant demeanor last night when he cursed her...
Today, Xie Muqing looked like a wilted, dying blade of grass.
His face was completely bloodless, a pale and ashen white.
His features, so exquisitely beautiful they seemed inhuman, suddenly appeared much more approachable.
Lin Yan took a closer look and saw that the front of his clothes, especially the two sleeves, were worn and torn beyond recognition!
His clothes were covered in dirty yellow dust...
With just one glance, she guessed how he, with his disabled body, had managed to get into her house.
If she's right.
He must have crawled slowly and painstakingly from the Xie family home to her room!
She couldn't believe how much murderous intent he had towards her.
That's why he would be willing to abandon the dignity of a marquis's heir.
Dragging along that broken body.
Even if it means crawling like a dog, I'll crawl to her house and kill her!
With that kind of determination, what couldn't you do?!
She must be killed!
No wonder he died so young!
Criticism is one thing.
Lin Yan still had to take his pulse carefully.
After taking her pulse, she placed her hands on Xie Muqing's calves, pinching and squeezing them before finally letting go of her devilish hands.
In the eyes of the Xie family, her actions were blatant flirting.
Madam Xie could no longer tolerate it.
Just as I was about to step over to stop her, she startled me so much that I stood frozen in place.
"With both legs broken and poisoned by a strange toxin, it's a miracle that he's still alive after being exiled all the way."
The Xie family members, who had initially intended to drag her out, exchanged glances after hearing her confident and seemingly authoritative diagnosis.
They both saw shock in each other's eyes.
Madam Xie, as if seeing a lifeline, immediately knelt down in front of Lin Yan with a thud.
"Young lady, please save my son! Our Xie family will serve you like slaves for the rest of our lives to repay your kindness."
