In a blink of an eye, it's July 7th - the Qiao Qiao Festival.
Ruan Tang got up early in the morning and decorated the yard, hanging colorful ribbons and exquisite and cute little lanterns.
After returning from the Western Region, the atmosphere in the entire courtyard was relatively depressed, firstly because of Tana's parents, and secondly because of the disappearance of Chunhan and Xia Zhu.
Especially Tana, who spends most of her time shutting herself in her room, has lost a lot of weight.
When I meet people, there is no smile on their faces.
The lively and cheerful Tana seemed to be gone overnight.
It happened to be the Qiao Qiao Festival, so Ruan Tang wanted to take advantage of the festival to dress up the yard in a festive way to change everyone's mood.
After decorating the yard, Ruan Tang made some sweet fruits and snacks with Xiaoyu and Okra according to the tradition here, and then went to find Tana.
Chu Mu came over that night and said he would take her out to celebrate the Qiqiao Festival. She planned to take Tana with her.
She always stays at home and doesn't go out, so she can easily get into trouble. Over time, it will be detrimental to her psychologically.
She knew it would be difficult to accept the loss of her parents.
But those who are alive must continue to live.
She packed a food box with nuts and snacks before going to find Tana.
The villa she rented this time was a second-entry courtyard. She and Tana lived in the inner courtyard, she lived in the main courtyard, and Tana lived in the east wing.
A few men live in the outer courtyard.
Tana's mood was still low, and she stayed in bed all day without seeing anyone.
When Ruan Tang arrived, she was still like this.
Ruan Tang placed the food box on the table before walking towards the bed.
"Tana, get up. Today is the Qiao Qiao Festival. My sister has made sweet fruits and snacks for you. Get up and try my sister's craftsmanship."
Tana lay on the bed with her back to her, silent and motionless.
Helpless, Ruan Tang had no choice but to get on the bed and put his face in front of her to see her.
Tana's eyes were empty and she was staring at something. She didn't react at all to Ruan Tang's appearance.
This is Tana's normal behavior during this period, but Ruan Tang can't help but feel sad every time he sees her like this.
She was a happy little girl, but she became an orphan overnight.
Especially Ruan Tang felt even more uncomfortable when she thought that neither Mog nor she were her pure relatives.
"Tana, are you okay? Eat something and my sister will take you out to play."
Tana still didn't give her any response.
"Today is the Qiao Qiao Festival. It must be very lively outside. Can my sister take you to put out lanterns?"
Ruan Tang patiently coaxed her, but after talking for a long time, Tana didn't even respond.
Ruan Tang knew that if she was allowed to continue like this, her body would definitely collapse.
She knew that Tana's condition was caused by a heart disease, and this heart disease could only be cured by medicine.
She couldn't bring her parents back to life, so she could only have a belief to support Tana to live well.
Ruan Tang thought for a while before speaking again: "Tana, I know you feel uncomfortable. You blame yourself for the death of your aunt and uncle, but it is not your fault. If you continue like this, then their hatred will be Who will report it?"
"You think you can just rely on your brother? You are also their daughter. You should also contribute to revenge, instead of being left alone like this."
"What you are doing now is making your relatives happy and your enemies happy."
"If my aunt and uncle knew that you were like this, they would not only be sad, but they would also be extremely disappointed in you."
"Are you willing to make them sad and disappointed again?"
Tana finally moved, then turned to look at Ruan Tang.
Seeing that it was working, Ruan Tang continued: "Why did those people kill my aunt and uncle? Don't you really want to find out?"
A tear finally fell from the corner of Tana's eyes.
But she bit her lip to prevent herself from crying.
Ruan Tang bowed and helped her up, holding her in his arms, "My aunt and uncle's spirits in heaven will definitely be reluctant to let you ruin your body like this."
"What you should do is live well so that you can kill those evil people."
"Sister, I listen to you. I will live well. I want to see the person who killed my father and mother die with my own eyes!"
Tana was sobbing and her voice was hoarse, but she finally spoke.
Ruan Tang breathed a sigh of relief and gently stroked her back with his hand to comfort her.
"Good sister, from now on, my sister will accompany you, and my sister will work with you to bring the murderer of my aunt and uncle to justice."
Tana finally cheered up and ate something.
After Ruan Tang helped her freshen up, he took her out of the room and went to the outer courtyard to find others.
When she arrived, Mog just came out of the room.
When he saw Ruan Tang and Tana, he looked startled, and then walked towards them after a moment.
His eyes first fell on Ruan Tang's face, and then on Tana.
"Tana, are you...feeling better?"
During this time, Tana stayed in her room and refused to come out. Although Mog visited her every day, she always lay in bed and ignored him.
Although Mog is still Tana's brother, his core has changed, and he is too embarrassed to go to bed to persuade her.
Every time I go to see her, I say a few words and then leave.
Now that I see that she is finally willing to come out, my heart is a little relieved.
When Tana saw him, her eyes turned red again.
It's no wonder that Tana doesn't know that this Mog is not Mog. In her case, Mog is now her only relative.
She took a step forward, hugged Mog directly, and couldn't help crying.
Mog was stunned for a moment when she hugged him, and his hands raised in the air were at a loss.
Although he had already convinced himself to treat her as his biological sister when he was in the Western Region, he did so, but Tana didn't hug him directly like now.
He will feel a little awkward and uncomfortable.
But the next second, he was glared at by Ruan Tang, and then she raised her chin again, pointed at Tana, and motioned for him to hug her.
Mog then hugged Tana tightly.
"Brother, we want to avenge father and mother, and I want to kill those bad people."
"...Well, okay." Mog responded.
But he also thought in his heart that they should not be responsible for killing bad guys, the government would take care of it.
However, if his assistance is needed, he is obliged to do so.
Moreover, he has been here for a long time and has a preliminary understanding of this place, but he cannot live in Ruan Tang and eat at Ruan Tang's food all the time.
So he thought about it. He would first go to the government office in Shangjing to find a job, and then there would be some ways to investigate the case of Tana's parents.
Tana held Mog and cried for a while before resting.
Ruan Tang took her to wash her face again, and then called Qingfeng, Xiaofeng, and Ling Qing, and they all went out together.
Coincidentally, as soon as they walked out of the gate, Chu Mu's carriage also arrived.
When Chu Mu got off the carriage and looked at the huge group of people standing at the door, his eyebrows were beating, and he had a bad premonition lingering in his heart.
He walked up to Ruan Tang, glanced at everyone, and couldn't help but ask: "Are they..."
"Didn't you say it's busy outside during the Qiqiao Festival? I'll take them out to make it fun."
Chu Mu: "..."
