" Where will they go?" Old Madam Yan sniffed in a haughty manner as she looked at Xiao Mei who lowered her head and then turned to look at Song Yan with an annoyed look on her face. " They went to pay respects to the daughter-in-law of the Chen Family, you know the ritual after the thirteen days had passed right? We have no relationship with the Chen family but they still went to the ritual saying that we live in the same district and it will be a bit too much if they were to avoid the Chen family in such a way. I was so against it given that the Chen family have never helped us but your grandpa has been friends with Old Master Chen for a long time and went ignoring my words. "
After a pause, she rolled her eyes and then added, " Yan Bao might have even taken Xiao Mei if I had not told him that he should not bring his pregnant wife to such a place only then did he stop. It's a good thing that I stopped him or else who knows, what he might have done?"
When Song Yan heard Old Madam Yan's reply, her eyes flickered and her face turned, even more, uglier as she looked at Xiao Mei whose entire face was still shrouded with black cadaveric qi, a sudden realisation fell upon her as to why the milkman had not been delivering the milk cartons these days most probably he was already dead and she knew that something was up in the heads of those Chen sisters no wonder it was so peaceful these few days!
She then thought of something and said with a small smile, " Oh no wonder I did not see anyone at home today, they most probably went to pay their respects to Miss Chen's sister in law, I think I will go and pay my respects as well later on."
When Old Madam Yan heard that Song Yan was thinking about going to the ritual as well, she was startled and immediately shook her head and said, " There is no need for you to go and join in the fun, Yan Yan. I am afraid that something bad will come after you, even if no one says about this, that sister-in-law of Chen Chu Chu died in a sorry manner, most probably she had a lot of resentment when she died. My grandmother used to tell me that a woman who dies with remaining grudges latches onto a woman instead of a man, and stays at home such that they can take revenge only a man with weak Yang energy possessed and compared to those sturdy men who are bursting with energy, I am afraid that women like you are in more danger. I did not even let Xiao Mei go, how can I let you go?"
Old Madam Yan was very superstitious—— she knew that something was very wrong with the Chen family but she could not keep a finger on it but it was better to be wary of something instead of letting it affect one's life gravelly.
Old Madam Yan knew that the yin energy at the Chen house was really heavy these past few days ever since Qiao Mei died, women were born with greater yin energy than men and it was easier for them to catch something dirty than men.
At that moment Song Yan did not say anything instead she casually looked at Xiao Mei who was nodding off and then turned to look at Old Madam Yan, " Grandma Yan, since how many dSister-in-lawn law Mei had been going to buy milk cartons?"
As she spoke she looked at Xiao Mei's face which was covered with black cadaveric qi, as her eyes gazes at Xiao Mei's face she understood that this dense cadaveric qi did not accumulate in just a day or two, someone had been keeping an eye on Xiao Mei for a long time before deciding to make a move today.
" It has been three days. Why?" Old Madam Yan could see that there was something wrong with Song Yan, for some reason she kept on looking at Xiao Mei's face with a concerned look in her eyes. This gaze was very peculiar and could not be ignored by her at all.
Song Yan turned to look at Old Madam Yan and hesitated, in fact, she did not want to scare Old Madam Yan who was already so old but she could not ignore Xiao Mei's plight after all, Old Madam Yan and Old Master Yan along with their three sons had treated her very well in the present and past, they were the only one who stood up against Fu Yu Sheng after the death of Fu Chen and Yan Bao even hit Fu Yu Sheng for her sake, calling him a coward.
She could not ignore something like this happening to Xiao Mei, which was she opened her mouth and said, " Grandma Yan please don't think that I am scaring you but with the recent events of parasitic demons there is something that I wish to tell you, Grandma Yan." She blinked her eyes innocently when she saw Old Madam Yan stiffen.
" Is there something wrong, Yan Yan?" Old Madam Yan asked, her husband had told her that she needed to make sure that their daughter-in-law stayed at home but he did not tell her the reason, at first Old Madam Yan did not say anything and even asked Xiao Mei to stay behind at home but then days passed by one after another and nothing happened.
Xiao Mei told her that she was getting bored which was why she allowed Xiao Mei to take a walk around the house but then the old milkman vanished without an explanation and Old Madam Yan started to send Xiao Mei to the small shop in the district from where she could bring a few cartons of milk along with taking a walk.
Did she do something wrong?
