Xu Qichen and he Yanyin meet at the cafe opened by his second brother.

There is no big difference with the last meeting, but Xu Qichen can clearly feel that he Yanyin has completely put down the previous feelings for him.

In fact, he knew that it was only because the conversation at the time of his first meeting made the woman who longed for equal rights in her heart get respect, that he would have a good feeling for herself, but this kind of good feeling is far less than that of men and women.

As Lin Nianzhi said, it's better to find a mutually convenient one if you always want to get married. For he Yanyin, it's the same. If you always want to get married, it's better to find someone who respects you.

However, compared with the last time, the content of their conversation this time is much more secret. If it wasn't for he Yanyin, Xu Qichen didn't dare to make such a request. After all, not every woman has her courage and courage.

"You took a very dangerous step."

Xu Qichen laughed, "if there is another way to go, naturally I am not willing to choose this method."

He Yanyin nodded, "anyway, I will try my best to help you."

After parting with he Yanyin, Xu Qichen returned to the Xie residence. For his own plan, he offered to serve his father to master Xie. These days, Xu Qichen is waiting in Xie rujun's room almost every day. Although Xie rujun is not his biological father, Sun Lin's tragedy is not caused by him. He is also the victim. Xu Qichen does not have too many negative feelings for him, but has some pity for him.

Xie rujun's life is coming to an end. Chronic poison and medicine have eroded his whole body from inside to outside. He can hardly speak.

"Master Lin, the medicine is ready." A girl stood at the door with a bowl of Chinese medicine in her hand.

Xu Qichen side head, smile, "good, put it on the table, I'll give my father medicine."

The girl nodded, full of concern, "young master should also pay attention to the body."

"Good." Xu Qichen responded with a gentle smile, "take the door for me when you go out. My father doesn't like noise. Thank you."

When the room quieted down, Xu Qichen stood up and went to the table. He took a palm sized bottle out of his coat pocket, poured some of the medicine into the bottle, stuffed the stopper, and then poured all the remaining medicine into the potted plants on the windowsill.

Every time Xu Qichen sits by Xie rujun's bed and holds his paralyzed palm for him, he looks at Xu Qichen quietly, his mouth slightly raised, but his muddy eyes are moist.

I can't say anything, but this look is full of thousands of words.

Over time, some of Xu Qichen's deepest feelings seemed to be awakened.

He regretted that if he didn't escape the ending and entered the Xie family earlier, would Xie rujun's life be saved?

But Xu Qichen is very sober, he is not a savior.

On New Year's Eve, Xie's residence is busy. In order to experience Xu Qichen, master Xie arranged for him to help prepare the new year's Eve dinner. This is also a big challenge for him. Xu Qichen has always been gentle, generous and polite to the Xie family, especially compared with Liu Mingde, who came to the Xie family to give instructions at three or five o'clock.

Compared with Xu Qichen, Liu Mingde had a hard time coming in. Originally, he was the only son of Xie's parents' daughter, and he swaggered around Jiangqu city all day. Now his son's grandson came back, and his grandson lost his favor. Even the class leader of the stage didn't flatter him as he used to. This made Liu Mingde angry and thought about it all day How to deal with this half killed illegitimate son, can always find a suitable opportunity.

According to the usual practice in previous years, the relatives of Xie's family arrived at Xie's residence the day before New Year's Eve. As soon as Xu Qichen changed his old habit of arranging residence according to family size, he redistributed according to the principle of seniority, which angered Liu Mingde, who had always been arrogant and domineering in Xie's residence.

"Where's Xie Lin?"

The girl at home stammered and couldn't speak for a long time. She was slapped by Liu Mingde and fell to the ground, "Damn, I can't even say a word! What's the use of keeping you garbage! "

"Master Lin, he is In the study... "

Liu Mingde spat, "I really think I'm a young master!" Then he came to the study angrily. Without saying a word, he kicked the door open, "Xie Lin! Make it clear to me

Xu Qichen and the housekeeper were checking the account books in the study. Seeing this, he didn't even look up. He continued to talk about the problems on the account books. Liu Mingde was even more angry when he saw that he didn't pay attention to himself. "I'm not the best room to sleep in. What do you mean when you arrange me to the small and partial West courtyard! Do you really think of yourself as the owner of the Xie family? "

Xu Qichen put down his account book and said faintly, "cousin, I have reported the assignment to my grandfather. He also agrees with this way. Of course, if my cousin insists that I'm the one who's obstructing me, I'd like to exchange residence with you, so my cousin can move to my room today. How about that? "Liu Mingde's expression is even more ugly, rushed up and grabbed Xu Qichen's collar, "change with you? What the hell do you think you are

One side of the housekeeper see this situation, quickly came forward to hold Liu Mingde, "watch young master calm down..."

Liu Mingde elbowed the housekeeper down and said, "what's the matter with you old slave? Let's go

Xu Qichen, who was grabbed by his collar, calmly said, "housekeeper Liu, go out first."

The housekeeper got up from the ground and left the study with a sigh.

Liu Mingde, however, was unwilling to give up easily. "You bastard, if I don't ask you to suffer today, you won't know how many kilos you have!"

Xu Qichen suddenly laughed, and just now his obedience and gentleness disappeared without a trace. "You're right. I'm a wild seed. Your mother is Xie's parents' daughter, and my mother is just an unknown female worker. She gave birth to me and died. Since I was born, I have been working as a domestic servant for others to block evil and continue my life. But you are rich in clothes and food. But what about that? "

His tone was gentle and sincere. Somehow, it created a strange sense of contempt. "Cousin, you know in your heart that I'm going to inherit the Xie family's property soon, and you've been thinking about it for 20 years. After all, I'm a stranger, and I can't get anything."

"Don't forget, in the past 20 years, you can't even live in Xiegong house. You can only stay in your increasingly dilapidated Liu house. Who makes you not the grandson of your grandfather's direct relatives?"

Liu Mingde almost turned red when he saw him like this. He punched him in the face. Xu Qichen felt a pain at the root of his teeth and the smell of blood spread out. However, he was still laughing. He pushed Liu Mingde away and walked out of the study in an indifferent way. "What's the use of hitting me? As long as I'm still in this home, you'll always be a young watch. I want you to live here You have to live where you are. I won't allow you to set foot in Xie's residence in the future, and there's nothing you can do. "

Xu Qichen opened the door of his study, and the last few words were very light, as if he were talking about his own care.

Liu Mingde was completely angered by him. He grabbed him by the neck and put him against the wall. Ten fingers were almost embedded in the skin between his neck.

The strong sense of stimulation made Xu Qichen almost unable to make a sound, so he could only move towards the door as hard as he could.

Liu Mingde was not sober at this time, and he cried hysterically, "I'm going to kill you

Overcoming the dizziness brought by suffocation, Xu Qichen stretched out his arm and pushed down the two foot high sapphire vase placed at the door of his study. The sound of breaking suddenly came. Several servants on the second floor heard the sound. Seeing this scene, they immediately pulled Liu Mingde away. Xu Qichen got out of danger and slowly slid back against the wall until he sat on the ground.

Fortunately, Liu Mingde has been smoking a lot and wandering around the kiln for so many years, and his body and bones have been empty for a long time. Otherwise, Xu Qichen would have been killed alive.

Xu Qichen fell to the ground, and a servant carried him downstairs. Mr. Xie, who heard about it on the phone, rushed back to the Xie residence.

"Where's lin'er?"

The girl standing at the door saw that the master was so angry and said timidly, "young master Lin is lying in the room. The doctor asked him to leave."

Master Xie went upstairs on crutches. When he saw Xu Qichen lying on the bed feebly with red fingerprints on his neck, his temper suddenly came up: "what's the matter?"

The housekeeper said, "just now Master Lin and I were checking the account book in our study. Master Biao suddenly rushed in and grabbed master Lin's collar at that time. I tried to persuade him, but master Biao didn't care. Later, master Lin asked me to go out first. He told master Biao that, who knows, later... "

Master Xie's crutch poked heavily on the ground, "then why did he go to the study?"

The housekeeper explained: "master Biao is not satisfied with the residence allocated by master Lin, but master Lin has said that he can change rooms with him, but master Biao is..."

Master Xie clapped the cupboard beside the bed, "where's that villain?"

Several servants were silent. Master Xie's anger came up and asked again. Then someone timidly said, "just now I saw that master Biao asked the driver to go out, saying that he wanted to go to the opera garden to relieve his anger."

"This evil..."

At this time, Xu Qichen opened his eyes, supported himself with his elbow and sat up with difficulty Here you are, grandfather

Master Xie immediately sat down beside the bed and said, "don't talk. That bastard is so cruel. I think he wants your life!"

Xu Qichen coughed a few times and touched his neck. His voice was weak: "cousin, he's just confused for a moment. Don't take his grandfather seriously."

"Confused for a moment?" Master Xie tightly grasped the crutch in his hand, "he has been confused all his life!"

One side of the girl could not help but finally said: "master, young master Lin is so kind-hearted, and he excused young master Biao. We all saw it just now. Young master Biao was pinching young master Lin's neck and yelling that I would kill you, a wild breed. That was a lot of effort. Young master Lin could not stand up at that time."

Xu Qichen takes a look at the girl and remembers that she accidentally spilled some tea on Liu Mingde when she poured tea. It was she who stopped her from being tortured by Liu Mingde."Master, Mr. Lin is very kind to everyone in the mansion, and he is tolerant to Mr. Biao. But Mr. Biao scolds Mr. Lin many times in private, and he has said all kinds of things..."

"Well, Xiaoyu, stop it." Xu Qichen coughed a few times, "grandfather, let's just forget about it. My cousin only said such words when he was impatient. He never did it intentionally."

Master Xie's face was gloomy. After a long time, he said, "you've been working hard these days. Have a good rest." After that, he scattered the servants in the room and asked him to sleep. Xu Qichen nodded and watched master Xie leave the room and lie in the quilt for a while. Then he sat up, held his neck and went to the desk, picked up a pen and wrote something on his desk.

Liu Mingde didn't come back at dinner. Master Xie's face has always been very ugly. Xie's residence is so big that it soon spread all over the house. His relatives and relatives also talked about it. If he didn't punish him, it would be hard to convince the public. Besides, he was very disgusted with this misbehaving grandson.

In the early morning, Liu Mingde went back to Xie's residence full of wine. He made a monkey about it again. Xu Qichen heard the movement in his room and put on his coat. He went downstairs to help Liu Mingde. Liu Mingde didn't drink too much. When he saw Xu Qichen supporting himself, he rushed up again and pushed him away with a wave of his hand. "You get away from me, son of a bitch."

Xu Qichen is not angry, a few girls will help him up, he went back to the room to rest.

On New Year's Eve, the Xie family was jubilant, and they were well managed by Xu Qichen. The Xie family praised him, but Liu Mingde was another scene. He didn't change his clothes in the early morning, so he was called to master Xie's room.

"What happened yesterday! I think you have eaten the bear heart and the leopard's gall, and dare to go wild in the Xie mansion! "

Liu Mingde looks like a fool, "that kid offended me first!"

"You dare to argue!" Master Xie pointed to his face, "how do you mean it? There are so many eyes up and down in the house. They all know how you aim at lin'er. What else can you say? "

"He's buying people's hearts!"

"Shut up Master Xie stood up and said, "go and apologize to lin'er, or you'll get out of the Xie residence for me!"

Liu Mingde was very angry, but he did not dare to attack in front of master Xie. He had to press his anger into Xu Qichen's room. After entering, he found that he fell asleep with his eyes closed, spat on the ground, did nothing and left.

Xu Qichen closed his eyes and listened to him slam the door. Then he slowly opened his eyes, took out the pocket watch that Xie rujun had given him earlier, opened it, looked at it, and lay down for a while before getting out of bed.

Outside, the firecrackers rang again and again. A lot of children were watching the excitement at the gate of Xie's residence. They picked up the head of the firecrackers. In order to celebrate, master Xie invited a lion dance team to dance at the gate of Xie's residence for more than half an hour.

Master Xie looked at the time, it was already more than five in the afternoon, and the dinner was about to start. He said to the housekeeper, "is master Lin still resting? Go and get him ready. Come down

"Yes, sir."

Just after the explanation, he heard a report: "master, miss he is here. She says she has something important to tell you."

"Miss he? The youngest daughter of the he family? "

The servant nodded, "yes."

"Please send someone in soon."

After a while, he Yanyin walked into Xie's residence and said, "good new year, master Xie."

"Oh, here comes Yanyin." Master Xie stood up from the sofa and went to he Yanyin. "Why don't you celebrate the new year in my family today? It's not a New Year greeting for me."

He Yanyin smiles, "master Xie is teasing me." the room is warm. She takes off her cloak. Master Xie sees that she is holding a document in her hand and says with a smile, "what's the matter?"

"Xie Lin asked me to do something." He Yanyin looked upstairs. "I don't know if he is at home now. I want to have a talk with him."

Master Xie nodded. He agreed with Xie Lin's contact with he Yanyin very much. "I just called my servant..."

Just at this time, the servant who just went upstairs suddenly ran out of the room. When he went downstairs, his feet were floating, almost crawling down. He kept saying, "master, master, master Lin, he..."

Master Xie frowned, "what happened to master Lin?"

The servant shivered with fright. He took a look at he Yanyin and master Xie. He swallowed his saliva and pointed to the room open to the door of the building. "Master Lin, he, he, seems to be out of breath..."

Master Xie clapped in his heart. He Yanyin immediately stepped forward to help him and sternly scolded him: "what are the Chinese New Year's bullshit?"

The servant fell to his knees with a plop, "master, Miss He, how dare I..."

Master Xie's hands began to tremble, but he didn't want to believe it anyway. "It's impossible, it's impossible."

"Don't worry, master Xie. I'm a doctor. I'll follow you up to see what's going on." He Yanyin said, and ordered the servant to help master Xie and follow them upstairs.There was no one else in the room. The three of them went in together. Xu Qichen lay motionless on the bed without any sound, just like sleeping. As soon as master Xie came in, he called his name several times.

"Lin'er, lin'er?"

When he touched Xu Qichen's cold hand, he touched his face again. Master Xie couldn't stand up immediately. He almost fell to the ground and was held by he Yanyin. "Master Xie, I'll have a look. Maybe it's just shock."

He Yanyin took off her gloves, put her finger into Xu Qichen's nose and looked down. If she really had no breath, she opened her eyelids to check again. On one side, master Xie still held a glimmer of hope and was very anxious, "what's the matter with him? Is there any way to save it? "

He Yanyin sighed, "master Xie, to tell you the truth, he really doesn't breathe. Now I need to check his heartbeat." Then he lifted the quilt, exposed his upper body and put it on his left chest. Feeling what was in his left chest pocket, he took it out and leaned over again to listen carefully for a while.

Master Xie is also a man who has experienced a lot of storms. Although he is breathtaking at the moment, he still has a strong breath. But when he sees he Yanyin's expression, he knows it clearly, but with a little luck, he still doesn't want to believe the fact in front of him.

"Go Go and invite Dr. Zhao here... "

He Yanyin suddenly said, "master Xie, to tell you the truth, I came here today because of Dr. Zhao in your family. I'm afraid he has been arrested by the police."

Master Xie was shocked because he didn't know the situation

He Yanyin handed the document to master Xie. "In fact, Xie Lin should tell you about it. He found that his father's daily medication had problems, so when people didn't pay attention, he brought some of the medication to me and asked me to test it for him. This is my test result. Xie's medicine does contain poison, and the daily dosage is not much, which is difficult to detect, but over time, the damage to the human body is extremely serious. "

She sighed, "at first, Xie Lin just wondered why his father's health was getting worse after so long treatment, so he asked me to check the reason."

Master Xie's hand holding the test results was shaking, "who is it?! Who is it? "

He Yanyin unfolded the paper she had just taken out of Xu Qichen's coat pocket and gave it to Mr. Xie after a general look. "Mr. Xie, it was just taken out of his pocket. Have a look."

Master Xie took the paper. It was written by Xu Qichen. After reading the content carefully, he almost fainted.

Grandfather,

grandson hesitated and decided to write this letter. Now the grandson is in a very difficult situation, so he has to guard against it.

At Miss He's party a few days ago, grandson overheard a conversation between his aunt and cousin. It seems that he mentioned his father's illness and family doctor. But at that time, grandson didn't know his life experience. He was just a servant of the Song family and didn't dare to speculate.

Now I return to my family, serve my father, and think about what happened that day. I feel that it's not right. I turn to miss he, who came back from overseas to study medicine, to help me investigate my father's medicine. Miss he hasn't given me a reply. I haven't told miss he about the banquet day. I just ask her to test the medicine for me. But my cousin seems to have known that I was the one who broke the conversation between them at that time. He repeatedly threatened that the truth might not be revealed, so he wrote this letter just in case. If there is something wrong with your grandson, please contact Miss He as soon as possible to find out the truth!

Dear lin'er,

"come! Go and tie up that bastard! Shut up in the woodshed and keep quiet In a hurry, master Xie coughed a few times, and he Yanyin said, "master Xie, you can't come back from death. Please take care of yourself."

"I've been searching for my grandson, but I didn't expect I didn't expect... "

Seeing that the servant left the room in a hurry, he Yanyin hesitated for a while and said, "master Xie, I have just read that Xie Lin's death was caused by taking sleeping pills, but this personal letter is not his suicide letter. It must not be suicide. I don't know if Xie Lin has been ill and injured recently. Do you need to take medicine? "

Master Xie frowned, "lin'er was injured yesterday, and took some medicine to relieve pain and remove blood stasis." He glanced at the table. "That's the medicine."

He Yanyin looked at it and shook her head. "No, these drugs won't kill you." She looked at master Xie, "I suspect that Xie Lin's medicine has been changed secretly."

"Master Xie, Xie Lin's body is almost cold. I think he has been dead for some time. Today is new year's Eve It seems that there are a lot of people coming to Xie's residence. At this time, it's not appropriate to make a public statement because it involves fighting within the family. "

"Ke lin'er..."

He Yanyin added: "in addition, I believe master Xie knows that Xie Lin has been fighting evil spirits for people since he was born. Although I am a medical student, sometimes I have to believe the things of my ancestors. His leg disease is also fighting disaster for young master song. He has evil spirits, and now he is dying in vain..."

People in business pay most attention to Feng Shui. In master Xie's life, his only son is a poor fortune, and his only grandson dies after he returns to his family. Even those who don't believe in it can't help but be afraid, "well What do you mean"We Chinese are particular about keeping our homeland safe. Master Xie, it's the turn of the year today. If we don't deal with this matter in a low-key way as soon as possible, I'm afraid it will be the next year... "

What he Yanyin said made master Xie's heart tingle. Originally, he was very superstitious. Seeing this situation, he couldn't be afraid.

What's more, the whole clan now gather in Xie's mansion. If we don't deal with it as soon as possible, we will be in a panic. The next day, it will spread to Jiangqu. By then, no one will dare to visit Xie's shop.

"This matter It really needs to be dealt with as soon as possible. " Master Xie stood up, went to the door, called several servants, gave orders, turned back to the room, saw he Yanyin still guarding by the bed, and said, "Yanyin This matter... "

He Yanyin couldn't hide her loss, but she stood up and said, "don't worry, master Xie. I knew Xie Lin before, and we can be regarded as friends. Now that something happened to him, I'm heartbroken. Naturally, I won't say it. Besides, he trusts me very much. I hope master Xie will punish the real murderer. In exchange, he will be fair to Xie Dashao, who has been in trouble for many years. ”

after that, he Yanyin leaves Xie's house and leaves him alone in the room.

He thought that the only child could continue the incense for his Xie family. It's hard to predict that his only son and grandson were all harmed by his family.

The sound of firecrackers outside is still going on.

On the eve of the Chinese New Year's Eve, there were more than ten tables for the family dinner, but no one found that several servants secretly transported the body of their young master to the tomb of Xie Jialing ten miles away and buried it with nanmu coffins bought temporarily.

He Yanyin's words lingered in master Xie's heart for a long time. He was really worried. So he invited a fortune teller to test them. What he Yanyin said was similar to he Yanyin's words, even more exaggerated.

Master Xie paid a high price to ask the master to cast the magic on the floor secretly. Listening to the incessant incantations of the high population, there came laughter downstairs, which made master Xie uneasy.

He Yanyin went home and had a hasty meal. The telephone rang. When she answered the phone, she had to change her clothes and leave.

"Where are you going for the Spring Festival?"

"There's something going on in the clinic. I have to go." He Yanyin hugged her mother, said a few words, then left he mansion and drove to the back door of the forest house.

Lin Nianzhi had been waiting in the cold wind for a long time. When he saw the light coming, he walked in and had a look. It was he Yanyin.

Lin Nianzhi hurriedly got into the car and said, "finally, did everything go well?"

He Yanyin nodded, "well, my cronies have just replied to me, saying that they have gone to moling."

"Then we have to hurry up."

They drove to moling. It was very late when they arrived. There was a black car at the foot of the mountain. They looked carefully and found that each other got out of the car.

It's song yuanyan.

He Yanyin got out of the car, "how can you be so fast?"

"I guessed that they would be buried here, and they came directly after calculating the time." Song yuanyan looked very anxious, "hurry up, it's nearly five hours past."

He Yanyin nodded, and the three went to moling. This small mountain was bought by the Xie family long ago and used as a cemetery. Over the years, there have been 80 bones buried in this mountain.

The moon is dark and the wind is high. In winter, the bare branches are tearing in the cold wind, leaving strange shadows shaking on the ground. Except for the three of them, there was no one else on the mountain. Lin Nianzhi was carrying a lantern and the faint light was shining on the ground. He felt more and more gloomy and terrifying.

Lin Nianzhi was wearing a hat and scarf, and he felt that he Yanyin was very cold. He was close to him, and his goose bumps came out. "Geese, Yanyin, how can I feel so cold..."

He Yanyin held her hand. "Don't be afraid. You are a person who has received modern education. You should believe in science."

"Science? I'm afraid there's only metaphysics in her mind now. " Song yuanyan saw that she was too timid to walk. He couldn't help feeling a little worried. "I knew you were so timid, so I shouldn't have asked you to come and drag your feet."

Although Lin Nianzhi was very afraid, he didn't want to be despised by song yuanyan. "Who said I was afraid! Miss Ben won't be afraid! " Then she let go of he Yanyin's arm, walked forward two steps, and stamped her feet hard. She started to jump and warm herself up, pretending that she was just cold. How about that? Isn't it cold enough? "

Song yuanyan looked at her without expression, "yes, of course. Look at your feet, miss

Lin Nianzhi bowed his head, and there were fruit trays and incense sticks.

"What do you do when you walk in front of other people's graves?"
