A little devil has arrived at the Marquis's mansion, and all the powerful officials in the cour

Chapter 52: The Salvation of the Infant, the Collapse of the Ning Family's Wushan Mountain.

In the Lin family courtyard, three incense sticks were stuck in the stone table, which was covered with a table full of dishes and fruits.

Moonlight and Starlight devoured the meat; they had been starving for a long time.

Renbao watched from the side, swallowing hard. He glanced at Su Xuance furtively, then secretly reached for the chicken leg with his chubby little hand on the table.

"You're not allowed to eat anything today, or your tummy will feel bloated and uncomfortable again."

Just as Renbao was about to grab the chicken leg, Su Xuance pressed down on her chubby little hand.

Renbao blinked, clasped her hands together, and looked at him with teary eyes: "Daddy, I'll just have one chicken leg, okay~"

so cute!

Su Xuance couldn't hold out for long and gave in: "I can only eat one."

"Great!" Renbao exclaimed excitedly, taking a big bite of the chicken leg and enjoying it immensely.

The Lin family members stood by, each one anxious and restless.

Especially Lin Ze.

When he learned that the two little devils who had been staying at home were only five years old, and that they were twins, he was completely dumbfounded.

The young Taoist priest said he was their father.

Could it be...?

"I'm so full!" Xing Shu patted her round belly and let out a loud burp. This was the first full meal she had eaten since she died. She looked at Ren Bao sweetly and said, "Thank you, Sister Yama."

Yue Lang paused for a moment, then looked up at Ren Bao.

The King of Hell was nothing like he had imagined.

Compal is just a soft and adorable little dumpling.

"Thank you," Yue Lang said.

"I'm the Little King of Hell, it's only right that I take care of you two little devils." Renbao ate a chicken leg, his eyes crinkling with laughter. "I'll send you to the underworld later."

The twins paused, and Xing Shu said timidly, "Sister Yama, we don't want to be reincarnated in the underworld."

"Why?" Renbao was very confused.

They were young children who died young, so they couldn't have tombstones erected for them, and no one would pay their respects to them. It was truly pitiful for them to wander the earth.

But they can be reincarnated soon after they go to the underworld.

Yue Lang stared at Lin Ze, her lips pursed, a great deal of resentment emanating from him.

Lin Ze noticed a burning gaze. He pursed his lips and said with difficulty, "Young Taoist priest, can you open my eyes? I want to see them."

Renbao nodded.

The next moment, Lin Ze saw the twins and was suddenly stunned.

The Lin family stared at him, not daring to breathe.

"What did you see?" Lin Ze's wife, Liu, asked anxiously.

Lin Ze wept: "The children are our twins, a boy and a girl, who died five years ago."

Liu gripped the edge of the table tightly, her pupils shrinking, and murmured in disbelief, "It's Yue Lang and Xing Shu!"

She looked at Renbao pleadingly, then knelt down and said, "Little Taoist priest, I want to see them."

"Okay," Renbao replied.

Granny Meng once said that most people who are unwilling to go to the underworld after death have lingering attachments. Once those attachments disappear, they will no longer hide from the ghost messengers and will be willing to go to the underworld.

The moment Liu saw the twins, tears welled up in her eyes, and her throat felt as if it were blocked by a wad of cotton, dry and difficult to swallow.

"My children, my children!" Liu rushed forward, trying to gather them into her arms, but she missed; ghosts have no sense of reality.

"Mother." Xing Shu's eyes revealed her filial piety, and she wanted to get closer.

Yuelang grabbed her: "Sister, we're dead, we can't be too close to Mother."

Xing Shu's eyes were brimming with tears.

Lin Ze covered his face and wept. He never imagined that the evil spirit he regarded was his child.

Five years ago, Liu had a difficult childbirth. The midwife asked him whether to save the mother or the child, and he chose the former.

The twins died immediately after birth.

It wasn't until a year ago that the two finally let go of their differences, and a few days ago, a daughter was born.

Renbao asked the twins, "Ask me whatever you want to ask!"

Yuelang pursed her lips, her face tense: "Why doesn't Father want me and Yuelang? After my sister was born, you and Mother forgot about us."

His words were like a knife piercing Liu's heart. Tears streamed down her face as she cried and explained, "It's my fault for letting you two down. I'm useless for not being able to bring you into this world safely."

Lin Ze choked up: "It's my fault, I'm sorry to you all, but even after you had my sister, you will never have disappeared from your mother's and my hearts."

The moon was bright and the stars were sparse, meaning they were not yet born, so he asked the Master to give them names.

The pain of losing their son and daughter left them in a daze for years, only regaining their energy a year ago.

In the silence.

Renbao asked, "You buried them under the jujube tree in the courtyard?"

Lin Ze nodded.

Renbao has figured it out.

The spirits of Yue Lang and Xing Shu remained in the Lin family home and did not leave. As time went by, their spirit bodies gradually grew larger.

The resentment only grew after the Lin couple had a daughter.

Renbao pulled Yuelang and Xingshu aside and explained, "Since you're dead, you can no longer stay in the human world, but your parents have to continue living. If you weren't destined to be together in this life, maybe you will be in the next."

Yuelang nodded, holding Xingshu's hand: "Okay."

They looked intently into the eyes of Lin Ze and his wife.

Goodbye, Father and Mother.

The two souls disappeared into the white light and vanished completely.

Liu felt as if a piece of her heart had been ripped out. She rushed over, trying to keep them, and pleaded, "Young Taoist priest, please let them stay with me."

"No." Renbao shook his head like a rattle-drum. "You can perform a ritual to help them pass on to the afterlife."

Lin Ze helped Liu up and comforted her.

Ultimately, the couple chose to have Qingshan Temple perform a ritual to pray for the souls of their deceased twins.

Two beams of merit entered Renbao's body, and she felt greatly invigorated. Leaving the Lin family home, she looked up at Su Xuance and shouted with a strong voice, "Father, I'm hungry!"

Su Xuance: "………"

His daughter should be renamed Little Glutton.

.........

The Ning Mansion was filled with a somber atmosphere.

Ning Weiyu failed; the sand she applied for several days did not come out.

The clansmen began to question her seniority relative to Ning Wan'er.

"Why don't we bring Wan'er back from the Prince's mansion?" Elder Ning suggested.

He had heard that after Ning Wan'er married into the Wang family, Wang Zhiwen's health improved, and in the past two days, the Wang family had been frequently producing high-quality sand and gravel.

If this continues, the Ning family's position will be in jeopardy.

Ning said coldly, "Wan'er is already married to someone else. I have no right to bring her back."

Ning Weiyu stood up and blamed himself, saying, "It's all because of Weiyu's shortcomings; my skills are not up to par."

"It's not your fault," Ning said, defending her. "Anyone makes mistakes when they first start applying acupuncture; I did too."

"Madam!" The butler rushed into the main hall.

Ning stood up, asking expectantly, "Has the sand come out?"

The butler's voice was urgent: "Madam, something terrible has happened! The sand-digging site where Miss is working has collapsed, and all the people who were digging sand are buried inside!"

Boom!

Ning could barely stand.

The elders of the Ning family were all filled with fear, and they all stood up and surrounded Ning Shi.

It's collapsed! If anyone dies, the imperial court will definitely hold them accountable.

Ning Weiyu's face was deathly pale as she looked at Madam Ning: "Mother."

Ning calmed herself: "Quickly, take ten thousand taels of gold and invite the Little Celestial Master to the manor! No matter the cost, we must bring her here!"
