Mrs. Xie staggered and almost fell to the ground.
She covered her chest, supported her crutches, and quickly walked to Xie Shiwei's yard.
She saw her most valued great-grandson, Xie Shian, huddled on the ground, covering his forehead with his hand, blood flowing out from between his fingers and falling on the ground drop by drop.
The dazzling blood made the old lady's brain explode and she almost fainted.
"Evil! Why did my Xie family give birth to such an evil thing!"
The old lady rushed over with a strong breath, and hit Xie Shiwei's head unceremoniously with the crutch in her hand.
Xie Shiwei was eight years old and already quite tall. He reached out and grabbed the crutch in the old lady's hand, snatched it away with all his strength, and smashed it to the ground.
The old lady was furious, this evil man dared to fight back!
She stepped forward and grabbed Xie Shiwei's ears: "Kneel down. Kneel down for me. I must break this evil obstacle from you today!"
"If you don't kneel down, I won't kneel down!" Xie Shiwei yelled, "He should be the one to kneel down. He killed his biological mother, and he should kneel down to atone for his sins! What did I do wrong? I just punished Xuanwu Hou Shizi's hand broke the skin and bled a little, why should I suffer this..."
"Bastard thing!"
Old lady Xie trembled all over and raised her hand to slap him.
However, Xie Shiwei dodged him, pushed him hard, and ran away.
The crutches of the old lady were taken away. Mother Zhou who was beside her went to see how Xie Shi'an was doing. She was pushed by Xie Shiwei, and she couldn't stand firmly. No one was helping her, and she fell backwards.
boom!
There was a loud bang.
Xie Shi'an looked up suddenly and saw the back of the old lady's head hitting the ground, and the floor tiles were dyed red in a moment.
Xie Shiwei was so frightened that he forgot to run.
As soon as Xie Jingyu walked into the courtyard, he saw such a scene.
He held Xie Shiwei down with his backhand: "Tie this traitor up and throw him to the woodshed!"
The frightened boy realized what he was doing, and quickly held Xie Shiwei down, gagged him, and dragged him to the woodshed.
Zhou's mother ignored Xie Shi'an and crawled to the old lady's side. She saw the old lady's eyes open and her face turned gray.
She put her trembling hand on the old lady's nose, and was so frightened that she backed away: "No, it's not good, the old lady is out of breath..."
Upon hearing this, Xie Jingyu's left leg softened and fell to the ground.
He tried to stand up, but found that his left leg, like his left hand, couldn't use any strength at all.
A huge feeling of panic swept through his body. He put his right hand on the ground and stood up with difficulty. He dragged his left leg and walked to the old lady. His legs gave out and he knelt down.
He stretched out his hand to test his breathing, but could not feel a breath. The old lady's eyes that opened reminded him of He's two bloody eyes in countless dreams.
His hand went up and covered the old lady's eyes.
His whole body was shaking, tears fell uncontrollably, and then he cried out.
"Father, now is not the time to cry." Xie Shi'an covered his forehead and lowered his voice, "So many people in the yard saw that it was Brother Wei who pushed the old lady. These people will think that Brother Wei killed the old lady. Madam, if this matter spreads, the Xie family and the Xie family will be finished..."
Brother Wei will be arrested and interrogated.
Yushitai impeached his father for failing to teach his son.
If the younger member of the Xie family is unfilial, he will also be implicated, and everyone will think that he is unfilial...
Xie Jingyu raised his head and looked at Xie Shi'an.
At such a moment, his eldest son was not first sad about the death of the old lady, but rather concerned about the gains and losses of his own interests.
For the first time, he realized that this son was truly selfish and self-interested to the extreme.
But he had to admit that An Geer was right.
If word of this gets out, the Xie family will be doomed.
He turned around and saw four or five young men, three or four maids standing in the yard, and two or three women at the door of the yard.
With so many people, it’s impossible to keep their mouths shut.
"Father, great-grandmother is dead." Xie Shi'an's voice was low and hoarse. "If great-grandmother knew that her death had brought disaster to the Xie family, she would probably die uneasy. Father, there are some things that should be resolved." Then break."
Xie Jingyu's mind was in a state of confusion.
He has always been a filial person, otherwise, he would not trade his new wife for the life-saving magic medicine.
Before he could accept the news of the old lady's death, he had to deal with all the mess. His head hurt so much that it almost exploded.
"An, Brother An, do as you say."
He left the decision-making power in the hands of Xie Shi'an.
Xie Shian also had a headache, but it was just a trauma and his mind was very clear.
He said in a deep voice: "Let everyone who saw the old lady die come into this yard and burn it on fire, together with the old lady's body..."
Only dead people will not reveal secrets.
It was said to the public that there was a fire in Xie's house, and the old lady was too old to escape. She was burned to death along with these servants.
Xie Jingyu's eyes widened in disbelief. He glanced at Xie Shi'an and saw the indifference and determination on his son's face.
He looked at the old lady again, and her ravaged face had turned blue-gray.
When he was young, his father studied and his mother accompanied him. It was his grandmother who raised him up. His feelings for his grandmother cannot be expressed in a few words.
He once vowed that he would let his grandmother live a long life, enjoy happiness in her old age, and bury her in splendor...
But now——
Grandma died with her eyes closed.
The body will also be burned.
There is no peace after death!
...But, he had no choice.
Xie Jingyu closed his eyes and was about to speak.
Then I heard messy footsteps coming from the door of the courtyard.
Immediately afterwards, Yun Chu's anxious voice came: "How could such a thing happen, old lady? What's wrong with the old lady! Hurry, go and call the doctor!"
Xie Jingyu's heart sank, why is Yun Chu here...
Xie Shi'an took a deep breath and said: "Mom, my great-grandmother has passed away. There is no point in calling a doctor."
"What, the old lady is dead..." Yun Chu's figure swayed, and his voice was sad, "No, I don't believe that she died like this! What are you still doing? You, go and ask for the doctor! You, go to Shande Come back and buy ginseng to extend the life of the old lady! And you, go find out where the miracle doctor is..."
There were several boys in the yard who were sent away by Yun Chu.
She continued to give instructions, "Mother Zhou, and you guys, quickly carry the old lady to Anshou Hall!"
The remaining servants in the yard gathered around, lifted the old lady up with all their hands, and walked out of Xie Shiwei's yard to Anshou Hall.
Along the way, all the servants who had heard the news and came to see the excitement saw the old lady come out of the yard covered in blood. Almost two-thirds of the entire Xie family witnessed it.
Xie Jingyu's heart was beating rapidly, as if it was about to jump out of his chest.
He looked at Xie Shi'an, his always smart son, but he also saw a look of confusion in Xie Shi'an's eyes.
Seven or eight servants can be burned down in one go, but with so many people in the entire Xie Mansion, we can’t burn them all... The death of old lady Xie can no longer be concealed!
