Chapter 266 Passing the room (two more)
"Qing'er, are you alright?" Xu Yan looked at her affectionately, his tone subconsciously softened.
Qing'er shook her head reluctantly, meaning she was fine.
"Mother," Xu Luo snuggled in Qing'er's arms nostalgically, like a swallow returning to her nest, "You're finally here!"
This scene of deep love between mother and son was naturally captured by Wei Wan on the couch, making her feel that she was just an irrelevant outsider, an outsider inserted between them.
She looked at the family of three with complicated eyes.
Xu Luo and Xu Yao both looked like Xu Yan, and the two children looked alike. It was not until this woman named Qinger appeared before Wei Wan that she realized that Xu Luo looked like Xu Yan in four parts, and the other four looked like his biological mother. , lips like his birth mother.
Xu Luo raised his finger and pointed at the people around him, pouting, and complaining angrily to the woman: "Mother, they all bully me!"
His fair and handsome cheeks were bulging with anger, and his eyes were dark.
Since he was born, he has been the only son-in-law of the Marquis of Ji'an. Everyone is holding him and coaxing him. Since the days when erythema developed on his back, Wei Wan has loved him and even let him go. I'm used to it, how have I ever been bullied like today.
Xu Luo pointed his fingers one by one from the people around him, Duke Wei and his wife, those guards, Wei Wan on the couch... and Gu Yanfei.
Qing'er raised her eyes to look, her teary eyes just happened to meet Gu Yanfei's eyes.
"Have you heard the baby's cry?" Gu Yanfei sighed softly, "She is dead, but her soul is unwilling to leave, wandering in the world, she is still closely following you, staring at you..."
The words are clear and cold, as if every word strikes in the depths of the human soul.
"..." Qing'er trembled all over and couldn't help but fight a cold war.
She wanted to look away, but her body didn't obey her orders, she couldn't move, as if inside and out, from her body to her soul, to the long-buried memory, the girl in front of her had seen it through.
Yingying's light shines on Gu Yanfei's little face, her hair and skin seem to be glowing, like a dream, not like this earthly person.
Gu Yanfei's eyes drew everyone's attention to the "ghost face" on Xu Luo's back, and said slowly, "Look, she's looking at you."
"She's waving to you, what a good kid..."
Gu Yanfei suddenly laughed lightly, and the laughter had an ethereal feeling.
When the words were finished, in the house with the doors and windows closed, a gust of wind suddenly blew up without any wind, and brushed up her sleeves and skirts, making her look like a fairy, and it made people feel inexplicably strange.
Xu Yan and Qing'er both sweated from their foreheads, felt a chill on the back of their necks, and their hair stood on end, as if the "ghost face"'s blood-red eyes were staring at them.
Wei Wan's eyes also widened suddenly, looking at the "ghost face" on Xu Luo's back. There was sadness, eagerness, remorse, and regret in those dark pupils, but there was no fear, as if she was looking forward to something.
The night was dark, it was already two watch, and an oil lamp was lit on the table by the window.
The lights swayed with the gloomy wind, and the atmosphere in the room was gloomy. The blood-red scar on the boy's back was bright and dim in the flickering lights.
This is obviously just a scar on the skin, but the more you look at it, the more it looks like a terrifyingly twisted ghost face, like a baby struggling under the thin skin, screaming, with a terrifying smile on his face, as if it will break at any time. out.
"Ah!" Qing'er cried out in shock.
In the bright and dark lights, her face became even paler, almost transparent.
She looked anxiously at the strange red mark on Xu Luo's back, her slender body was shaking like a sieve, her eyes were so confused that there was no focus, and she murmured, "No, it's not."
Her slender fingers grabbed Xu Yan's robe and leaned against him, her frightened eyes looked at the blood-red scar on Xu Luo's back, as if she was looking at another person, her voice trembling: "It's you. body is too weak."
"Don't hurt Brother Luo, it's all your mother's fault, she stole my son..."
"..." Wei Wan's face also became paler, her eyes were uncertain, and she could vaguely understand.
Her other daughter did not die at birth, which means...
Gu Yanfei's voice without joy and sorrow echoed in the silent room: "The baby girl's soul has nowhere to go, it can only find a place to live."
"And the person who is connected with her blood, and the person who is connected with her enemy's blood, is the best candidate. This is the cause and effect."
"It's just the beginning."
"The scar on his body will get heavier and heavier, and then the pain will become unbearable. The baby spirit attached to him will gradually erode his soul, and finally tear his soul... so that he can never be born again."
"Soon!"
Following Gu Yanfei's remarks, Xu Luo suddenly frowned, scratched his arm irritably, and muttered, "Mother, I'm itchy, my back is so itchy..."
He scratched the red marks on his arm a few times, his face wrinkled, "Pain... Mother, I feel pain and itching on my back."
The boy twisted his body, scratching the red spots on his arms for a while, and scratching his back for a while. He was restless, and his eyes became red. "Echoing each other.
Xu Yansheng was afraid that Xu Luo would scratch and scratch himself, so he quickly hugged his son, looked at Gu Yanfei in surprise, as if thinking about whether what she said was true or not.
Qing'er looked at her son for a while, and Gu Yanfei for a while, her heart aching like being pricked by a needle.
There was a look of horror in her eyes, tears quickly filled her eyes, and she pleaded mournfully, "This girl, can you save him?"
"Children are innocent."
"Don't blame him."
Qing'er's eyelashes trembled slightly, and two lines of clear tears rolled down her pale snow-like cheeks, like the night dew rolling on the petals of an epiphyllum.
And this scene seemed to irritate Xu Luo, Xu Luo scratched her skin and shouted: "Mother, why are you asking her!"
Wei Wan didn't hear it, she stared blankly at the woman in green beside Xu Luo, and finally overlapped this face with the face she remembered.
She finally recognized the other party and blurted out: "You are Yuqing!"
Qing'er squatted on the ground and pursed her cherry lips, without saying a word, her face that was as smooth as jade and fair-skinned than snow was beautiful and graceful.
At this time, silence is acknowledgment.
Mrs. Wei Guogong, who had been on the sidelines for a long time, frowned and asked Wei Wan, "Awan, do you know her?"
"She was Xu Yan's former maid." Wei Wan said with difficulty.
Nine years ago, shortly after Wei Wan married into the Marquis of Ji'an mansion, she asked Xu Yan if she wanted to give Yuqing a name.
For a noble family like them, it is normal for a man to have one or two rooms before a big wedding. Wei Wan didn't care. However, at that time, Xu Yan personally told her that he had let the man out of the house.
Once, Wei Wan always thought it was Xu Yan's respect for her, even if she didn't conceive a child two years after her marriage, Xu Yan never took a concubine.
How could she ever think that what Xu Yan did was not for her at all, but for another woman!
Mrs. Wei Guogong's expression was even colder, and she asked coldly with a dark face: "Xu Yan, since you already have a sweetheart, why do you still come to Weiguo Gongfu's mansion to ask for relatives?!"
It's not that the girls from the Wei family can't get married, and many people ask for marriage, but if Xu Yan shows the slightest reluctance, the Wei family will never force it.
"..." Xu Yan put his other arm around Yuqing, silent, his thin lips pressed into a straight line.
He has always liked Yuqing, but he also knew that Yuqing's status was too low to be the principal.
At that time, he was still the prince of Ji'an Hou, and in order to inherit the title, he needed to have a direct son.
Therefore, he could only obey his parents' arrangement and betrothed to Wei Wan, thinking that after the marriage, he could take Yuqing as his concubine.
Unexpectedly, on the day he returned with Wei Wan for three days, Yuqing left alone, and his whereabouts are unknown...
Every time he thinks of that bitter past, Xu Yan feels the pain in his heart as if a piece of flesh has been gouged out.
"Daddy, I'm so uncomfortable! Mother, I'm itchy!" Xu Luo, who was held in Xu Yan's arms, was about to cry, twisting her body like a snake.
The scarlet scars on his naked back are like dripping blood, as if this "ghost face" is crying...
Another gust of overcast wind protruded, almost blowing out the light of the oil lamp, leaving only a small flame on the wick, the room suddenly became much darker, and even the facial features of other people around him became gloomy and eerie.
Yuqing was completely panicked, knelt on the ground helplessly, kowtowed heavily to Gu Yanfei, and begged: "Girl, please, save my son, he is just a child."
As long as her son is safe, she is willing to give everything.
She has a motherly heart, and she has a bit of earth-shattering grief.
The corners of Gu Yanfei's lips were always slightly curved, making it impossible to see through her joy and anger.
"That's just a baby." Gu Yanfei said meaningfully, his eyes locked on the other side's line of sight, "The bones are incomplete, how can they live?"
"..." Yu Qing's pupils moved, her forehead turned slightly red, her eyes became dazed again, and she seemed to hear the unwilling cry of the baby girl again.
Incomplete corpse, how to live? !
The baby girl can't be reincarnated, and will haunt her life forever...
Yuqing's heart was bitter, her pale lips moved, and after a while, she softly uttered a few words: "In... in the mass grave."
Even though her voice was as low as a mosquito, everyone else around her could hear it quite clearly.
Wei Wan gritted her teeth, her neat white teeth rattled.
Yuqing lowered her eyes, grabbed Xu Yan's robe again with one hand, her eyes filled with tears again, and said in a sullen voice, "It's because the child is too weak to support him."
The shrunken light slowly brightened again, swaying and burning on the oil lamp, the light and shadow interlaced.
"Really?" Gu Yanfei sighed meaningfully.
"Mother!" Xu Luo shouted sharply, her body twitched violently, the whites of her eyes turned up slightly, her back was straight, it was so weird, like a ghost's upper body.
"Brother Luo, don't scare your mother." Yuqing was so frightened that she almost lost her mind and was so distressed that she couldn't help herself, her son was her lifeblood.
She was completely unable to think, and said excitedly: "She was frozen to death!"
There are no ghosts.
