Chapter 166: The Spirit Tablet Cannot Enter the Ancestral Hall
Finally dawn came. Thinking of her two children, Liu cried all night.
Yingxue and Yuejie were both harmed by Su Qingwan. She should have stopped the people from the third house and refused to let them set foot in the Marquis' Mansion.
"Madam Zhou, have you prepared everything for Yingxue?" Liu asked in a hoarse voice.
"Don't worry, ma'am. Everything is ready. As you instructed, we have arranged two more maids to take care of her." Madam Zhou replied.
Hearing this, Liu looked at Su Yuejie, who was lying on the bed unable to move, and wiped her tears again.
"Let's go, let's go and arrange Yingxue's affairs first."
She took Nanny Zhou and others towards the woodshed.
When she found out yesterday that Su Yingxue asked Chunyu to poison Su Qingwan, her first reaction was what a pity it was. It was a pity that Chunyu failed and couldn't kill Su Qingwan. It would have been great if she had succeeded.
She could understand Yingxue's murderous intention. Even if it was herself, she would also want to kill Su Qingwan.
It's just a pity for my daughter, she has to suffer outside.
But it doesn’t matter, this time she has arranged everything properly, and the previous things will definitely not happen again.
Now all Yingxue needs to do is to heal her wounds well, and then we can bring her back to the Marquis' Mansion after some time.
After a while, Liu and his group arrived at the door of the woodshed.
"You lazy bastard! I told you to serve the young lady well, but you fell asleep here." When Madam Zhou saw that the old woman in the woodshed had fallen asleep, she immediately rushed over and kicked her hard twice.
The gatekeeper was kicked awake. After seeing clearly that it was the Madam who came, she jumped up and bowed, saying, "Madam, you are here."
"Open the door." Liu was dissatisfied with the old woman, but she didn't want to punish her at this moment.
The gatekeeper hurriedly took out the key and opened the copper lock on the woodshed door.
"Clatter!" After the iron chain twitched, the door of the woodshed creaked open.
A rotten and stench hit the gatekeeper in the face, almost making her vomit, but she forced herself to suppress the feeling.
"Oh my, why is the young lady lying at the door?" Nanny Zhou saw at a glance that the person lying behind the door was Su Yingxue.
Liu naturally saw it as well, and hurried forward to see what was happening to her daughter.
But as soon as she touched Su Yingxue's body, she was stunned!
It felt cold to the touch, and a chill ran up my hands and into my body. My body felt stiff, not as soft as usual.
A bad thought rushed into Liu's mind. Her hands trembled involuntarily. She gently pushed Su Yingxue and called out:
"Yingxue, mother is here."
Su Yingxue had no reaction.
Nanny Zhou also noticed something unusual, and she exerted force suddenly and turned Su Yingxue over.
"what--"
The few maids who followed over screamed in fear, and of course Nanny Zhou and Liu were also frightened.
Su Yingxue's face was pale, her lips were livid, and her eyes were wide open with unwillingness. After being turned over, she was facing Liu and the others.
When everyone saw this situation, they guessed that Su Yingxue was most likely dead.
Only Liu couldn't believe it. She reached out and touched Su Yingxue's breath, and sure enough, there was no movement.
"Ah, Yingxue, my daughter..." Liu's wails shook the earth.
Su Yingxue is gone!
Soon, the news of Su Yingxue's death spread throughout the Marquis' Mansion.
The old marquis sighed. He had wanted to give his eldest granddaughter a chance to survive, but he didn't expect that she wouldn't be able to survive.
Well, maybe this is God's will, it's her fate.
Old Mrs. Kang was relieved. It would be better if this notorious villain died, so as to avoid bringing trouble to the Marquis' Mansion and other people.
Xiaokang and Su Lihan from the second house both had happy expressions on their faces. It would be better if she died so that her reputation would not bring trouble to their second house.
Jiang's feelings were indescribable. After all, a life was gone. But she also felt that her death was not a bad thing. At least it would not bring trouble to her master and her children.
Su Qingwan knew earlier than anyone that Su Yingxue was going to die, so she deliberately went to see her off. However, when she heard that Liu insisted on holding a funeral for Su Yingxue and burying her in the ancestral tomb, she sneered.
"Liu has a good plan. She wants to bury Su Yingxue in the ancestral tomb and place her spirit tablet in the ancestral hall. What a beautiful idea."
Su Qingwan immediately threw away the book in her hand.
"Go to Rong'an Hall."
……
In Rong'an Hall, when Su Qingwan came over, Liu was crying bitterly.
As soon as she saw Su Qingwan, her eyes, which were red and bloodshot from crying, were immediately filled with hatred, and she said angrily:
"Su Qingwan, how dare you appear in front of me."
"What you said, aunt? You are not a beast like a tiger, so why should I not dare? Besides, I came to Rong'an Hall to pay my respects to Grandmother Kang. She must be very sad because she lost her eldest granddaughter. Although I am not her biological child, I have to come and comfort her."
Su Qingwan's words first demoted Liu to a beast, and then gave herself the reputation of being filial to her elders.
At that time, she was the only grandchild in Rong'an Hall, so wasn't this accusing the other grandchildren of the first and second wives of being unfilial?
These few words made Liu so angry that she wanted to jump up and down. She couldn't beat Su Qingwan, and the same was true for scolding her. This little bitch would make trouble no matter how unreasonable she was, not to mention that she was in the right now.
Su Qingwan ignored the aggrieved Liu, walked up to old Kang and bowed.
"Grandmother Kang, please accept my condolences. Elder sister probably didn't want to tarnish the reputation of our mansion, so she left first. We must not let her down." Su Qingwan said.
Mrs. Kang felt that there was something else behind her words, so she asked, "What do you mean?"
Mrs. Liu also became nervous. She was talking to Mrs. Kang about her daughter's coffin and funeral.
"My elder sister has passed away now because we don't want to affect the reputation of our mansion, so her funeral can only be held in a low-key manner, and it cannot be held in our mansion. Everyone knows that we kicked my elder sister out of the mansion before, and now we have to hold a funeral for her. Isn't this a slap in the face of the mansion itself?"
"And according to my eldest sister's wish not to implicate the people in the Marquis' Mansion, it's best if she is not buried in the ancestral tomb. Of course, her spirit tablet cannot be enshrined in the ancestral hall. It's best to place it outside, so that her affairs will not disturb the deceased ancestors."
Su Qingwan spoke slowly, and every word she said gave old Kang a reason that he could not refuse, because Su Qingwan said that this was Su Yingxue's intention, especially since the ancestors could not rest in peace, and no one could take the blame.
When Liu heard this, she became extremely anxious.
"Old Madam, please don't listen to her nonsense. Yingxue is the blood of the Su family. How can she not be buried in the ancestral tomb or in the ancestral hall?"
"Aunt, although my elder sister is of the Su family, she has been married before. Although she was divorced and returned, she was kicked out of the mansion long ago. How can she be considered a member of the Su family?"
