When Lin Qingwan woke up, the inner courtyard of the Lin Mansion was already a somber white, waiting only for her to take her last breath before replacing the red cloth outside the main gate.

  When she opened her eyes, everyone thought it was a flash of light, Mrs. Xie clutched her handkerchief and sat on the edge of the bed, seeing her two eyes staring at her in confusion, and couldnt help but burst into tears.

  Lin Jiang had just sent off Wan Jie and received a guarantee from the ghost messenger, so he was no longer as heartbroken about Wan Jies passing.

  He got up from the table and walked to the bedside, lowering his head to meet Lin Qingwens gaze. The two were silent, but their turbulent hearts gradually calmed down.

  They had been planning this for several days and were mentally prepared. Although they still felt a bit uneasy, they managed to keep their composure without showing any unusual colors in front of others.

  "Mother, go and invite Dr. Xue over, I think Wans complexion seems to have improved a bit." Lin Jiang said in a low voice.

  Lins wife thought this was just Old Master comforting himself, but she still bowed and retreated to invite Dr. Xu.

  Xu Daifu had come back and forth twice, repeatedly confirming that Lin Qingyu wouldnt live for much longer. He had just sat down, and hadnt even finished a cup of tea when he was summoned again.

  Although he was reluctant, he still put down his tea cup and followed Lin Daiyu into the inner chamber.

  Mrs. Xie immediately gave way to him, and Dr. Xu lightly placed his hand on Lin Qingwens pulse. His eyes, which had been half-closed, opened slightly wider as he bent down to carefully examine the color of Lin Qingwens face. He saw that it was still pale with a tinge of greenish hue, but the greenish tint seemed to be dissipating.

  He involuntarily let out a "hiss" and switched to his other hand to take Lin Qingwans pulse.

  Its not uncommon for people to come back to life after being on the verge of death. Some people have stopped breathing and their pulse has disappeared, but theyve been put in a coffin and then come back to life, only to die again several years later.

  But none of them were what he had seen with his own eyes, all of which he knew from medical books or other peoples mouths. And now, it seems like there is an example right in front of him?

  Lin Qingwan had just sent him back when he took his pulse, and the pulse was weak. He couldnt hold on anymore, so he let them prepare for the aftermath.

  Just now, the old man suddenly opened the door and let him in to take her pulse. At that time, Lin Qingwen was in a coma, still had a pulse, but it was almost imperceptible. If he hadnt been good at taking pulses, he wouldnt have been able to confirm that Lin Qingwen was alive.

  But in less than two minutes, Lin Qingyan not only woke up but also started to regain her pulse.

  This is not a radiant glow, the radiant glow should be when Miss returned home today, at that time her eyes were shining brightly, her cheeks were rosy, and she was full of energy, thats what a radiant glow looks like.

  Xu Daifu suppressed his doubts and stood up to bow to Lin Jiang, saying: "Sir, please invite a few more famous doctors to take a look. Miss, it seems like the young lady is getting better."

  As soon as this was said, everyone in the house except Lin Jiangs eyes lit up, and Mrs. Xie also tensely reached out to grab Lin Qingyus hand.

  Lin Qing looked dazedly at her hand being held, and it took a while for her to react. She lifted her head and gave Mrs. Xie a faint smile.

  "Child, good child," comforted Mrs. Xie, "I know your heart, youre taking Second Brothers death upon yourself, but how could that be your fault?"

  Mrs. Xie cried, "Without you, Erlang would still have to return to Yangzhou. Its easy to avoid open attacks, but hard to guard against secret arrows. They want to harm him, not in Yangzhou, but somewhere else. You shouldnt blame yourself, you should blame the person who harmed Erlang. If you die like this, how heartbroken Erlang will be!"

  Yangs nurse, who was standing beside her, immediately said: "Yes, young mistress, if you want whats best for the second young master, you should live on. Dont forget that the madam is still around, and you need to show filial piety to the second young master."

  Lin Jiang turned his head and glanced at Yangs wife, this was said for Mrs. Xie to hear, right?

  The words were indeed spoken to Mrs. Xie, and since the death of the second young master, the lady had been in a daze, her heart as dry as wood, living without much difference from being dead.

  Its only been these past few days that shes perked up a bit because of Young Masters wedding, and now when she sees Madame, shell even try to comfort Young Madam. Yang Niang naturally wouldnt want to miss this opportunity, so whenever she finds a spare moment, she turns around and tries to advise her instead.

  She let Wan Jieer live, so she must also live!

  Wans sister died, and Second Master is heartbroken. Does that mean if his mother had died, he wouldnt be heartbroken? Even for the sake of taking care of Second Masters beloved, Madame should still be alive.

  Sometimes, it is precisely the attachment that can be the most direct reason for people to keep living.

  Lin Qingwan wanted to live because of her grandfather, didnt she?

  In a different world, she had her grandfather by her side, and she wouldnt think of dying. She would do her best to protect Yuhin and complete the task before returning.

  Lin Qingwan looked at Mrs. Xie who was crying sadly and raised her hand with difficulty to place it on hers, holding it loosely.

  Mrs. Xies emotions, which had been suppressed for many days, suddenly burst out, and she hugged Lin Qingwan and sobbed like a child.

  But whether it was Lin Jiang or Yang Nainai, they both let out a sigh of relief, and crying was better.

  Mrs. Thank you cried herself tired and went to rest, the sky had already darkened.

  Lin Jiang sat on the edge of the bed, looked down and glanced at Lin Qingyuan, then stood up and said: "You rest first, well talk about it tomorrow."

  Lin Qingwan couldnt sleep, she said in a hoarse voice: "Lord Lin, if youre not tired, lets discuss some more matters."

  Lin Jiang turned his head and saw that Li Chun and Li Xia hadnt noticed this side, so he lowered his voice and said: "You should call me brother."

  Lin Qingwan blinked her eyes, only to remember that she was no longer the soul state of Lin Qingwan, but Lin Jiangs sister, the eldest young lady of the Lin family, Lin Qingwan.

  "Big brother," Lin Qingyan called out in a gentle voice, saying softly: "I want to set up a memorial tablet for her, even if its blank, at least during holidays and festivals we can burn some incense for her."

  Only she and Lin Jiang knew about Wan Jies death. If even they didnt burn anything for her, who else in this world would remember her?

  Lin Jiangs heart ached slightly, and he nodded. Seeing Lin Qingyuan still in good spirits, he turned around and told Lichun and Li Xia to withdraw.

  "Ill take care of this, Lins ancestral hall is only accessible to me and Zhongbo who cleans it. Later, you and Yubin will also be able to enter, so dont worry about others being suspicious." Lin Jiang paused for a moment: "Lichun and Lixia are too familiar with Sister Yu, although youve been following her learning for a few days, theres still a difference. Ill find an excuse to transfer them away and reassign two new maidservants to you."

  Lin Qingyan nodded her head and said it was no problem.

  "Lin Nian is the general manager of the backyard, she was my mothers personal maid, later became my wet nurse, Lin family affairs she mostly knows, and home peoples relationships are also her responsibility, I will transfer her to your side, if you dont understand something just find her."

  "Wouldnt she suspect me?"

  Lin Jiang shook his head, "Youve been through a great ordeal, and its understandable that your personality has changed. Wan Jies daily life was taken care of by Li Chun and the others before. Moreover," Lin Jiang said with deep meaning: "Even if she suspects something, she wont do anything to harm you, Lin Niang can be completely trusted."

  Lin Qingwan understood and positioned Lin Aiguo as her helper.

  "After all these things have passed, you can talk about them. Your top priority is to take good care of your body... My time is limited..." Lin Jiang said in a low voice.

  Lin Qingwan must take good care of herself before he dies and be able to hold up the Lin family, otherwise she and Yuhai will still be bullied by others in the future.

  Lin Qingwan nodded and lay down to sleep obediently.

  This was a frail yet youthful body, and even though Wan Jieer looked very similar to her, Lin Qingwan felt somewhat unaccustomed for the time being.

  But her body couldnt hold on for much longer, and soon she lost consciousness, slowly falling asleep.

  When she woke up after a good sleep, it was already bright outside. As soon as she opened her eyes, she met a pair of big round eyes staring at her.

  Lin Yuhbin smiled shyly at Xiaojie and turned his head to say: "Lichun sister, the young lady is awake, quickly bring water."

  Lin Qingwan looked at the little girl who would depend on her for survival in the future and struggled to get up.

  Lin Yuhbin hastily stepped forward to support her, with a worried face, "Little girl, what do you want me to get for you?"

  Lin Qingwan supported her hand and stood up, looking at the sun outside the window, "What time is it?"

  "Its almost noon, you go wash up first, and Ill heat up the birds nest congee in the kitchen. Later, well eat something before taking the medicine."

  Lin Qingwan smiled and said, "Big sister will take care of everything."

  Lin Yuhongs face turned red as he lowered his head and said in a low voice, "Father said that Little Sister is not feeling well, so I should take good care of you. From now on, Little Sister must listen to me."

  "Alright," Lin Qingyan said softly, "from now on Ill listen to you, eat well and take my medicine properly. And elder sister will also have to listen, eat well and take care of her body."

  Lin Yuhuans body is even weaker than hers. Since she started eating, she has to take medicine, which is also one of the important reasons why Lin Jiang has always been worried about Lin Yuhuan.

  After changing her soul, with the blessing of Bai Wengs law and the merits of Lin Jiangs transaction to the underworld, she recovered quickly. On the same day, she could eat a bowl of birds nest congee, and by afternoon, she was able to get out of bed with the support of the bedpost.

  Of course, no one dared to let her walk, but her recovery speed still made everyone look sideways, especially Xu Daifu, who would have liked to live in Chunhuiyuan without leaving, so that he could stare at Lin Qingwans pulse all the time.

  Mrs. Xie returned home after making sure that Lin Qingyan was out of danger and wouldnt die, but her sons funeral had not yet been held.

  The previously prepared grave can no longer be used, and a new one must be found in the ancestral tomb. Before leaving, Lin Qingwen specifically came to talk to her, saying that she wanted to be buried with Xie Yimeng 100 years later.

  This means that the structure of the tomb chamber also needs to be redesigned, at least to leave her a place.

  Mrs. Xie thought of a good burial site when Lin Qingwan mentioned it, and now she was going to fight for it, so she only sent some medicinal materials to Lin Qingwan and devoted herself wholeheartedly to the construction of the tomb.

  As Madame Xie returned home, another dispute broke out in the Xie family because this time Madame Xie had set her sights on the burial site that Xie Yan had chosen for himself two years ago.

  Xie Yan is the eldest son of Chang Fang, and the selected burial site was examined by a Feng Shui master, who confirmed that it was a good location with ample space.

  Since when has there been a case where a father yields to his son?

  If it were something else, he would have let it go, after all, Erlang was his most beloved son, and he was also very heartbroken for him, but the grave is different.

  He had been searching for this burial site for a long time and had even greeted several uncles with it settled.

  The ancestral grave is just that big, and outside those two mountains is the border area. Its hard to find a good burial site.

  What happens after ones death is sometimes more important than what happens before it, how can Xie Yan bear to part with it?

  But facing Yangs expression of "You are a kind father, you must be heartbroken for our son", he could only say nothing with a stifled tone.

  In the end, she could only hint at others to oppose, but if Yang could be easily convinced, then she wouldnt be Yang.

  She bit her lip and didnt say anything, but instead wrote a letter to Yang Yi in the capital, who then went directly to find Xie Yans father, Xie Hong.

  Xie Yimengs death made the Xie family owe a debt of gratitude to the Yang family, and the Yang family still held some leverage, so in order to protect Xie Yiyang, they couldnt afford to provoke the Yangs.

  Under feelings of guilt and shame, Xie Hong saw his relatives coming to the door and thoughtlessly wrote a letter to his son, telling him to give up the grave site for Erlang.

  He was strong and healthy, with plenty of time to slowly choose a burial site, but for now he was focused on his son.

  The cemetery was obtained, but it was also close to the time of Xie Erlangs funeral. Wanting to bury him before the funeral was impossible, so the Xie family decided to temporarily place the coffin in a temple and wait for 81 days before burying him.

  By then, the tomb chamber will also be completed.

  When Xies family was in an uproar, Lins family was quiet. Lin Jiang and Xies family negotiated and soon completed the documents for Lin Qingwen to return home.

  A married woman who returns to her natal home still has one more freedom than an unmarried woman - the freedom of marriage autonomy! If she wants to remarry, neither the Xie family nor the Lin family can intervene.

  As long as Lin Qingwan is in the Lin family, she is the closest elder of Lin Yubins bloodline. Lin Yubins marriage must go through her hands, and neither the Lin family nor the Shang family, Lin Yubins maternal relatives, have the right to arrange a marriage for Lin Yubin without going through Lin Qingwan.

  After Lin Jiang finished all this, he finally let out half a sigh of relief.

  At this time, another major event deduced from the Celestial Mirror also occurred - Daliang and Dachu erupted in large-scale war again, and the border urgently needs reinforcements!
