After saying goodbye to Shi Baojing, Shi Qingxue went to King Rui’s mansion.
Because of Leng Yan’s case, she almost didn’t see Mo Junyang these days.
It was not that they didn’t contact each other.
For example, Mo Junyang helped her hide Leng Yan. Even if Mo Shujun was capable and dug the ground, probably she couldn’t find the maid.
However, Shi Qingxue hadn’t apologized to Mo Junyang.
She came to King Rui’s mansion alone and wanted to give Mo Junyang a pleasant surprise, but as soon as she reached the gate of the mansion, a carriage stopped at the gate and prepared to set off at any time.
The guard Wei Zichao knocked at the door of her carriage and said in a low voice outside, “My Lady, my master invited you to share a carriage with him later.”
Shi Qingxue sat in the carriage and surprise could hardly be concealed on her face.
She had been out for only a short while, yet Mo Junya
The ancestral mausoleum of the Shi family was a treasure place with good geomantic omen in the northern suburbs of the capital city.It was said to be the ancestral mausoleum, but in fact, only Shi Lei was buried here.However, Shi Lei was far-sighted and cleaned up the large ground, saying that it would be the place for all the family members to rest in peace in the future.The geographic position of the ancestral mausoleum was wonderful indeed, with a broad view, and it was quiet yet not too horrible.Every time Shi Qingxue came to pay respect to her grandpa, she would give him thumbs up.“You know what? I hated here most when I was young. I always thought that this place took my grandpa away from me. On Tomb-Sweeping Day and the Winter Solstice every year, I was unwilling to come here then. And I came here while sobbing only after Father had to tell me to kneel in the ancestral hall as a punishment.” Looking at the
The grave keeper was beaten hard, but he didn’t dare to resist at all.He didn’t resist and even accepted Shi Qingxue’s anger silently till his face became black and blue, almost not like a person.Mo Junyang walked forward and stopped Shi Qingxue again, saying in a deep voice, “Stop beating him. Calm down.”Shi Qingxue did stop, yet she still glared at the grave keeper resentfully and gritted her teeth, swearing, “I will kill him!”Her words made the grave keeper tremble out of fear, but soon he returned calm. It seemed that Shi Qingxue said she would only “injure him” instead of “killing him”.Mo Junyang glanced at the grave keeper coldly and agreed. “Okay.”He said it simply and decisively, almost without hesitation.He seemed to be a slave of his wife and agreed with Shi Qingxue unconditionally no matter what she said, which even scared her.Wei Zichao had a headache and looke
After hearing the old craftsman’s “stress,” Shi Qingxue giggled.She was proud but not arrogant and raised her chin, saying shyly, “If the descendants raised by Grandpa need the ancestors’ blessing to keep the title of nobility and have a bright future, as his descendants, we would be ashamed before he jumps out of the coffin to curse us.“Elder, just rest assured and do the job. As long as you can make it and won’t disturb my grandpa’s peace, you don’t need to worry about so much.”Perhaps this old craftsman heard such words for the first time, so he was stunned and didn’t have reactions after a long time.In fact, he knew that the “ancestors’ blessing” was the same as the ghost theory, and it existed if he believed, while it was fine if he didn’t believe it.It was okay as long as he was always in awe of the ancestors.But!Knowing it was different from doing it.In this
Shi Qingxue could hardly conceal her panic and turned to Mo Junyang for help.Mo Junyang looked at her and shook his head cautiously, saying in a cold voice, “The coffin can’t be opened for now.”Shi Qingxue didn’t want to open the coffin, but hearing Mo Junyang with no scruple say such words respectful to the dead person, she didn’t understand.She raised her head and glanced at Mo Junyang in surprise. Then she pursed her lips, asking, “Why?”Mo Junyang kept silent for a while yet soon answered calmly, “You don’t qualify to.”Shi Qingxue was stunned. Before she reacted, a roar was heard. “Shi Qingxue, what the hell are you doing?”Qingxue turned her head in the direction of the roar, to see that Mo Shujun led the second master’s and third master’s families to rush over and stopped not far away from her. Mo Shujun glared at her furiously and seemed to skin her alive.On the occasion, th
The old craftsman was capable and outstanding in the field of repairing graves, but it didn’t mean that he had X-ray eyes and could estimate the situation in the coffin when he didn’t know anything.Generally, if others showed that they were unwilling to repair the coffin, the old craftsman would be sensible and do as the employer requested.However, it was different this time.The one who slept inside was his savior that he missed and expected to see for a lifetime.The old craftsman didn’t want his savior to be buried back as it was even uncertain if his skeleton was in the coffin.Something like this was unacceptable to the old craftsman even when he just thought about it.“My Lord, I know that I shouldn’t disturb my savior’s peace, but the coffin was destroyed so seriously. If we don’t open the coffin, I am afraid…”The old craftsman didn’t fear the powerful people, yet before he fi
Shi Junhe looked outside and inside for several times but didn’t find what was wrong as the old craftsman mentioned.The old craftsman had to point to a sunken part next to the jade pillow in the coffin and explained, “A box must have been put here in the past.”“Hmm?” Shi Junhe nodded yet still looked confused as he didn’t know how a box would influence it.However, since the old craftsman said that, he still explained unnecessarily, “Perhaps the people who buried my father put something inside that he liked.”Although Shi Junhe didn’t know what should be put in a box, this explanation must be the most reasonable.Nevertheless, the old craftsman looked baffled. He seemingly wanted to explain but didn’t know what to say.“This mark must be left under an eight-treasure box, right?” Mo Junyang suddenly spoke out what the old craftsman didn’t finish.The old craftsman goggled. “How did you
No matter how resentful Shi Junhe was of Mo Junyang, he agreed to the young man’s plan in the end.This matter was decided.However, after Mo Junyang returned to King Rui’s mansion, General Shi finally realized a big problem.He grabbed Shi Qingxue who wanted to flee, questioning in a cold voice, “Qingxue, why didn’t I know that your marriage was decided?”Seeing that she couldn’t run away, Shi Qingxue hurriedly smiled at Shi Junhe flatteringly and acted like a spoilt child. “Good Father! You are the best father in the world. Today you have worked for one day and must be…”“I am not tired.” Shi Junhe directly exposed Shi Qingxue’s small trick and continued coldly, “What’s more, why did you come to the ancestral mausoleum with His Excellency today? You took him to see your grandpa before asking for my permission. You are getting bolder.”In the beginning, Shi Qingxue obediently listened to Shi Junhe’
Mo Shujun directly spoke out her intention. “I have asked the elders in our clan today to come and check the family treasury, breaking up the family for you three brothers. And it happens to take a load off my mind.”After that, she added meaningfully, “After all, you always hoped to break up the family as soon as possible, right?”Mo Shujun was unwilling to prepare doweries for Shi Baoning with the shared property, but after she said that, it seemed that Shi Junhe couldn’t wait to break up the family.Shi Junhe raised his head and glanced at Mo Shujun. He opened his mouth yet didn’t say anything in the end, agreeing to Mo Shujun’s arrangement silently.After a moment, he stated, “I am going to tell Baoning and Qingxue to return home.”Mo Shujun frowned and was unhappy as Shi Baoning and Qingxue went out randomly, but thinking that they were going to live apart soon, she was “broad-minded” and controlled herself
