Long Rui heard this, frowned slightly, and said: "Alright, I know. You better leave quickly. Don’t harm anyone again. If I see you again, I will make sure your souls scatter."
"Big brother, we won’t dare anymore. We really won’t dare anymore."
"Go then!"
"Big brother, will you help us seek justice?"
"Hmm."
Upon hearing this, the two blood-soaked n walked through the wall joyfully.
As soon as the two male ghosts left, Long Rui imdiately lowered his head, patted Xuexue’s face, and shouted: "Darling, darling, wake up."
"Mm, mm!"
Xuexue opened her eyes, having heard all of Long Rui’s conversation with the two male ghosts, though she just couldn’t wake up.
"How do you feel?"
"I’m alright, I just couldn’t wake up earlier."
"You were bewitched by ghosts, of course you couldn’t wake up."
"I guess it was the trouble caused by seeing that huge locust tree tonight." Xuexue reached out to rub her temple.
Seeing this, Long Rui thoughtfully extended his hand to help massage her temple.
Xiao Taohong ca out at this ti, followed by Little Tiger.
Xiao Taohong called anxiously: "Master, Master, are you alright?"
In the space, she sensed her master was in danger.
Who would have thought that upon coming out, she’d see the Prince assisting the master with a massage, feeling her appearance was too abrupt, her expression grew awkward.
Xuexue: "I’m fine."
Long Rui impatiently said: "With here, what could possibly happen to my wife!"
Finally, he impatiently waved his hand: "You all better leave quickly, we need to rest as a couple, it’s inconvenient with outsiders here."
Xuexue: "Ah Niu, don’t talk nonsense, Xiao Taohong is not an outsider."
Long Rui: "No matter how close, she shouldn’t be spying on our bedroom matters."
Xuexue: "...."
Xiao Taohong felt awkward: "Uh...!"
Little Tiger grabbed her and said, "Co on, co on, they’re telling you to leave, why aren’t you going? How can you be so thick-skinned?"
"You’re the thick-skinned one!"
As soon as the words fell, their figures disappeared again.
The next day at dawn, Long Rui, who initially planned to hurry back to the capital, unexpectedly changed his mind, deciding to stay in Chen Family Village for a few days, and sent Long Yi to the Village Chief’s House early to invite the village head for important discussions.
Auntie Chen delivered breakfast early, along with white porridge pickles, and vegetable pancakes.
For those traveling day and night, this breakfast was considered pretty good; sotis in desolate places, they struggled to find even a sip of water, let alone white porridge.
In the room, the furnishings were quite simple, besides a wooden table, there were only a few wooden stools.
Long Yi hadn’t returned from the Village Chief’s House, and Long Rui had gone out to check on the horses.
In the room were only Xuexue and Zi Xia.
At this mont, Xuexue and Auntie Chen were sitting at the table chatting about household affairs.
"Little lady, did you sleep well last night?"
"It was alright."
"I told you they were talking nonsense, this house is fine, there are no ghosts here!"
"Haha...!"
"By the way, I just saw a gentleman asking around for the Village Chief’s place, what is he going to do at the Village Chief’s?"
"Well... I’m not sure, it seems he ntioned cutting down that huge locust tree in the courtyard."
"That locust tree is growing well, why cut it down?" Auntie Chen expressed her confusion. Moreover, they were just passing by, why insist on cutting down that huge locust tree?
Last night’s events were vivid in Xuexue’s mind; she chose not to explain, believing that when the truth was revealed, Auntie Chen would naturally understand.
After Xuexue and her servant finished breakfast, they put the leftover breakfast in the kitchen, covered it up, so that when Long Rui returned, he could eat it.
