Chapter 11 Grievance
The stepsister's sinister and cold eyes, the ferocious and twisted expressions of the women, and the fists and feet falling like raindrops.
She was trembling all over, clenching her fists tightly and biting her lip until it bled, and her eyes turned red.
Xia Ziying, how dare she...
Okay, great, she just wants to borrow five hundred taels of silver from her.
Xia Ziying attacked her without saying a word, treating her as a crazy woman and letting a group of women beat her to death.
Beat him to death.
She will never forget that kind of pain until she dies.
Xia Zihan closed her eyes, suppressing the hatred that was about to overflow in her heart.
So, is she really dead?
So is it a dream now, or is it real?
Xia Zihan opened her eyes and secretly pinched her thigh hard.
It hurts, it hurts.
Xia Zihan was so painful that she shed tears
The wet nurse thought she was sad and continued to persuade, "The old man left in a hurry, and the old lady didn't recover. The relatives haven't sent any letters yet. All these things are waiting for the old lady to make up her mind."
"The old lady is feeling uncomfortable, but she still has to take care of the funeral. Girl, you have to comfort the old lady more."
The girl is the old lady's only relative.
Xia Zihan finally came to his senses.
She died and lived again.
She was eight years old the year her grandfather passed away, which was her fifth year in the Chu family.
Thinking of her grandfather and grandmother whom she had not seen for many years, how much her elders loved her, and how she had been wronged over the years after her elders passed away, Xia Zihan felt sad, heartbroken, and cried loudly.
She cried loudly, crying to the heavens and the earth, crying about the grievances and misery she had suffered in her previous life.
That day was too humiliating, too painful, and too life-or-death. ……
The inside and outside of the Chu family courtyard were all hung with white silk ribbons overnight, and the whole hall was white. The people kneeling on the ground in the center of the front yard were all servants of the Chu family.
Everyone was sad and shed tears, weeping and wailing, which made people feel sad to hear it.
Xia Zihan wore a snow-white mourning dress and was guided by the priest to a well in the front yard.
She took a few copper coins from Nanny Deng and threw them into the well.
The priest shouted, "Buy water, buy water."
Xia Zihan's tears fell instantly.
According to folk custom, when an elderly person dies in the family, the younger male heir of the family has to go to the well where water is usually used to buy water and wash the elderly person's body.
Her maternal grandfather had no male heirs and no heirs, so the steward suggested that he go to the Anyang Marquis Mansion to ask Song Huai to buy water. Song Huai was Xia Zihan's fiancé, and he was half of the Chu family. It made sense for him to buy the water. .
Grandma disagreed and insisted that she buy water.
Grandmother said, "Your grandfather loved you the most when he was alive. If you buy water for your grandfather to wash his body in person, your grandfather will definitely die in peace."
When grandma said this, the stewards who had other suggestions did not dare to speak.
After the priest was invited, Xia Zihan was regarded as a male heir of the Chu family and bought water for his grandfather.
This thing didn't happen in the previous life.
At this time in her previous life, she was crying and depressed, and then fell into a coma and was ill for several days.
Grandma had no other choice, so she sent a steward to Anyang Hou Mansion and invited Song Huai to help her grandfather buy water.
Xia Zihan sniffed, followed Grandma Deng's instructions, fetched water from the well with her own hands, and carried it to her grandfather's room.
Grandpa was still lying on the bed peacefully, as if he was asleep.
