I drank a lot of milk to calm down the shock. The whole family was waiting for me to rescue them.

The bamboo branches are tall and straight, green all year round, proud of the snow and frost, neither humble nor arrogant. But at this time, it became a ghost that trapped Wen's family.

Bamboo shadows cast downwards, imprinted on the doors and windows as if black shadows are shaking, and looking out from the dim room looks like a ghost demanding life.

Wen shrank in the corner of the bed and stared in the direction of the door and window, her lips moving and she didn't know what she was mumbling.

"Squeak~"

The closed door was pushed open, Wen looked up suddenly, and for a blink of an eye, she couldn't see who it was.

She clutched her collar and stared at the figure at the door, wearing a brocade embroidered robe and an exquisite red jade hairpin, "It's you!"

Wen Shi was trembling and even more frightened than before. She pulled the quilt over her head and cried for mercy: "I didn't kill you, it wasn't me!"

"Please don't come to me! It's not me!"

"Don't come to me!!!"

Yun Jinglan looked at the locked Wen family and finally a smile appeared on her face. It was no wonder that she specially made this dress. God knows how much effort it took her to buy this set of jewelry.

She pretended to be surprised, covered her mouth and asked loudly: "What are you talking about? Who did you kill?"

Wen was startled when she heard the familiar voice. After waiting for a long time without any evil spirits threatening her life, she carefully pulled off the quilt above her head, revealing a pair of cloudy eyes. She squinted but couldn't see clearly the person in front of her, "Is it Yun?"

Yun Jinglan smiled and said, "Who else could it be if you weren't me? Could it be that you have really done something guilt-ridden, so you are scared?"

While Yun Jinglan was talking, she walked to the window and pushed it open. The sunlight came in and a shadow was printed behind her, making Wen even more unclear about her appearance. Even though she knew it was Yun Jinglan, she was still afraid. The shadow left by her sister was so great that what was reflected in her mind was infinitely amplified fear.

"Yun came closer and spoke." Wen's voice was hoarse, as if it had rolled on the gravel.

Yun Jinglan was even more happy to see that she was really scared. This was the effect she wanted. She didn't refuse and took a few steps forward, "Is this distance okay?"

"Come closer." Wen sat beside the bed and waved to the blurry figure, "Why can't I see clearly?"

Yun Jinglan didn't reply, she just approached the sandalwood stove and covered her nose with one hand, and opened the lid with the other hand to extinguish the incense.

Although mindwort is good, you should not smell it too much. The old woman likes mind-bending grass. She always respects the elderly, so I can only order it for her. But she couldn't smell it.

Dr. Wang said that if you smell too much of the grass, you will go crazy.

She glanced at Wen, who had disheveled hair, black eyes, and sunken cheeks. Seeing that she was in such a mess now was not in vain the "filial piety" of the couple.

"The doors and windows are closed, and the room is a little dark. It's normal to see clearly. I just don't know why you asked me to come over?"

In just a few days, too many things happened. Wen became ill after leaving Qiao Muyang in a daze that day, and has been recuperating in her room. I can't feel energetic all over my body, and I'm not in good spirits either. After she calmed down, she realized that she hadn't seen Zheng Xiulan and Qiao Muyang for several days.

But she couldn't get out, and no one from outside could get in. Even those dead girls dared to talk nonsense, I just wished I could cut their tongues.

"I don't like the maids serving outside. You have to replace them all."

Wenshi did not refuse and nodded in agreement.

She won't be able to live in this courtyard for much longer. When the prison of the Ministry of Punishment has its own cell head to "serve" her, these maids will really be no longer needed. "I'll have everyone evacuate later."

"You are still considerate."

Yun Jinglan's being so obedient gave Wen a bit of confidence. They probably don't know about this yet. She must be angry with her for leaving Zheng and her daughter at home for so long.

"Are you angry that I left the Zheng family at home? Lan'er is my sister's orphan. I have felt guilty about her all my life, so I am partial to her. Yao'er is my biological son, and you are my daughter-in-law. I am just talking. I'm nice to her, but everything in the Hou Mansion belongs to you. For my sake, don't care about it."

Wenshi tried to persuade Yun Jinglan like a caring elder, but she just wanted to feel sick.

What a big joke. Where did she get the face?

Are you still feeling guilty about your sister? Isn’t it her who wants to give everything to her daughter and grandson, and also wants to use their whole family as a stepping stone?

"I wonder what you feel guilty about?"

Wen didn't notice the change in Yun Jinglan's title. She was full of resentment when she mentioned Wen's bad treatment of her.

"I was a twin sister at the time. I married into the Hou Mansion and became a housekeeper, but my sister married a loser who only knew alcoholism and domestic violence. You don't know, the marriage with the Hou Mansion was originally my sister's, and we exchanged it for me. Got a bargain."

Speaking of this matter, Mrs. Wen was so angry that she was supposed to be the mistress of the Marquis Mansion!

Mrs. Yun also knew about this matter. When she was not married, her mother had already inquired about all the relatives in the Hou Mansion. She really couldn't be deceived by this secret past.

She resisted the desire to roll her eyes, pretended to be considerate, and helped Wen to scold herself: "That's a bad statement! Back then, the Marquis was the only one left in the Marquis Mansion. The young Wen was greedy for vanity and was afraid that she would become a widow after marrying, so she forced herself to Exchange marriage with you. If you ask me, she is responsible for all this and has nothing to do with her mother-in-law!"

Yun Jinglan was filled with indignation and wanted to scold Xiao Wenshi to death. She almost fainted with such ferocious expression.

She was the one who cursed every word!

"There is also Lan'er's marriage. She, no, I chose a sick man for her after so many choices. It's all me who delayed her life! I owe her this!"

Yun Jinglan covered her curling lips with her sleeves, thinking she heard some big joke.

When the Hou Mansion selected a husband for Zheng Xiulan, everyone in the capital knew about it. It's because the Zheng family has a weak background, the famous family looks down on them, and the new and humble officials don't like them. In the end, it was Zheng Xiulan who chose the Qiao family, a wealthy family in Jingzhou.

Erlang of the Qiao family was handsome and talented. It was Zheng Xiulan who committed suicide because her little temperament pushed her into the water during a quarrel and caused her to drown. After the death of Erlang of the Qiao family, if it weren't for the sake of their Wenyang Marquis Mansion, Zheng Xiulan would have been beaten to death. It's her turn to be so rampant now!

"Your father knows about Zheng's character. She is very much like her mother. It's my own fault if I tell you that." Yun Jinglan added fuel to the fire, "By the way, people in Jingzhou said that the Qiao family adopted a son from Qiao Erlang. I will inherit the family business and let it be known that I will not have a child born to a poisonous woman like Zheng Xiulan."

"Don't blame me for being harsh. My aunt really didn't teach Xiulan well. There was a lot of trouble in front of the widow, and she was a widow who was kicked out by her husband's family. It's not a problem to stay in the Marquis's house all day." She said this and suddenly grabbed hold of her. He took Wen’s hands and deliberately imitated the makeup she wore before her mother-in-law’s death. She also deliberately put her face in front of Wen’s face, “I’ll drive them away now!”

Yun Jinglan said the last words in a ghastly and terrifying way. Controlled by the mind-bending grass, Wen was in a trance and saw her as her sister who died young. She pushed Yun Jinglan away with all her strength: "Ahhh! Don't come over!" "

"Ghost!"

Yun Jinglan was pushed and suddenly retracted her hand holding Wen's hand. Wen Shi, who lost the strength to support himself, fell back and bumped his head against the bedpost. He rolled his eyes and fainted. I don't know whether he was knocked unconscious or fainted by fright.

When Wenshi was unhappy, Yun Jinglan was happy.

"You have done many evil things, and you will suffer all the consequences in the future. This is just the beginning. None of you, grandson and grandson, can escape!"
