Chapter 791 The Calamity ——2



No wonder those two women were so conscious when she mentioned that tattoo which was in the shape of a red ruby. Now she could not help but wonder just how long these sisters had been plaguing this world.

Old Madam Yan waited for Song Yan to speak but when she saw that Song Yan's face had turned even grim, she immediately pursed her lips and looked at her daughter-in-law who was sleeping. 

Just what did Song Yan do for her to make such an expression?

" Yan Yan, what is going on?" Old Madam Yan asked after a long pause as she looked at Song Yan who had finally looked away from the surface of the water and was now staring at Xiao Mei with a peculiar look in her eyes. 

Song Yan breathed in a long breath and then said, "It's really complicated, Grandma Yan. I will deal with things accordingly but for now, I can only tell you that Sister-in-law's fortune is clashing heavily with the Chen sisters and their family, please make sure that she does not leave the house today, no matter what!" 

Old Madam Yan was stunned when she heard Song Yan's words. She turned to look at Xiao Mei, these days she was getting more and more restless because of the fact that she could not do a lot of things and had to stay holed up inside the house. When she refused her daughter-in-law to go outside, the latter would make a fuss, now Song Yan was telling her that she could not let Xiao Mei go outside. Though she had no problem with it but it was not too good to make Xiao Mei stay inside the house all the time right? 

Seeing that Old Madam Yan was hesitating, Song Yan did not even hold back and said sternly, " Grandma Yan, you are old and I will not make things difficult for you but I will let you know one thing if the sister-in-law leaves the house today, she might never come back!" She paused and then to add more gravity to the situation she added, " If you do not believe me then I will have you call the family of the old milkman, I am afraid that you will realise that the old milkman did not get sick but instead he has gone missing!" 

As she spoke she took out a few talismans and then placed them in the hands of Old Madam Yan and said, " I need to leave, Grandma Yan. I will leave this matter to you, make sure that sister-in-law does not leave and tie a talisman around her neck just in case ." 

Song Yan also asked Old Madam Yan to wear one, Old Madam Yan had been scared silly when she heard the words Song Yan she did not dare to say anything against Song Yan and immediately agreed with her words, " Yan Yan, you do not need to worry about this, I will take care of her and make sure that she does not leave the house." 

Song Yan sighed in relief when she saw that Old Madam Yan had agreed, she took her leave after saying a few more words to Old Madam Yan while repeatedly telling her to keep an eye on Xiao Mei, even though she was sure that the sleeping talisman will not stop working and Xiao Mei will stay asleep but she was not aware of the strength of those Chen sisters which was why she was a bit scared. 

After she left the house of the Yan family, she turned to leave and headed straight towards the Chen family house. 

As she arrived at the Chen house, the sound of priests chattering prayers and the cries of the women could be heard. 

Song Yan looked at the solemn white decorations and then walked inside the house with a determined look on her face. She wanted to see the body of Qiao Mei but from the looks of it from what she saw on the water's surface, Qiao Mei's body was not in any condition to be placed in the coffin which was why she was sent to a funeral house on the same day when her body was found. 

Thus, in place of the coffin, a porcelain jar was sitting at the centre of the living room. Old Master Chen was worried that his daughter-in-law's body might create some sensation in the military district including causing a rift between the two families, he did not dare to keep the body intact. 

As Song Yan stepped inside the house, she could see that many women were crying while sitting around the porcelain jar and the two children whom Qiao Mei left behind were standing vigil next to it. 

An elderly woman who looked very similar to Qiao Mei was hugging the porcelain jar and crying her eyes out.

Song Yan looked at the porcelain jar and clicked her tongue, she had to admit that both the Chen family's husband and wife were truly the same kind of people. Selfish to the bones. 

For the sake of avoiding any suspicions they even took care of Qiao Mei's body as fast as they could under the pretext that they wanted to give a proper military burial to Qiao Mei. 

At that moment, Fu Shu Chang who was attending the funeral along with Yan Bao and his brothers turned to look at Song Yan who came to the funeral hall dressed in all black with her hair tied into a tight bun. Seeing his sister-in-law walk inside the mourning hall, Fu Shu Chang was stupefied but he still turned his wheelchair in the direction of Song Yan and then arrived in front of the latter with a patient look on his face, "Sister-in-law? What are you doing here? I am here to pay respects." 

Since he was the one who was close to the Chen family in the eyes of others, it seemed only right for him to attend this ritual.
