"Maybe I know why."
The silent atmosphere did not last long, and Yan Yan, who was on the cusp of the storm, personally broke the calm.
"Maybe this amulet saved me."
He slumped in front of the door of the Yan Family Ancestral Hall, and took out a golden talisman from the cuff of his robe.
It was a very elaborate amulet, even in the dim night, there was a faint golden light flashing, like a light guiding the way.
Yan Yan held the talisman tightly in his hand, in his opinion, if it was because of the existence of this talisman that the demons did not dare to approach him and distort his thoughts, then he needed to take good care of this talisman so as not to lose it or be snatched by someone with a heart.
"This talisman is..."
"When I invited the Immortal Ceremony last year, I met an old man in Yujingtai." Yan Yan explained, "This talisman was given to me by her, I didn't want to accept it at the time, but seeing that this talisman was really exquisite, I accepted it, but I didn't expect that it would save my life now..." "
What kind of old man can give away this life-saving treasure at will?"
"I don't know, but I think she's definitely not an average person." Yan Yan said.
"You must take this talisman well, you must not lose it, if we are not by your side, only this talisman can save your life and protect you from demons!" Chongyun instructed bitterly.
"Of course!" Yan Yan nodded.
He is not a person who is bent on death, on the contrary, he does not want to die at all, he still has his family, and he has a concern.
Yan Yan pondered for a moment, and suddenly spoke again: "In addition, you let me recall the past of Yanjiazhuang, and I have a little clue and think of some clues that may be useful."
He said such words with some hesitation, and after everyone heard this, their eyes couldn't help but light up.
If Yan Yan could recall some past events that contained clues that could be useful to this blood case, it would be great.
In any case, it is easier and faster than them being like headless flies, dizzying to find clues and the truth.
"That was about forty years ago, when I was less than 10 years old." Yan Yan coughed, cleared his throat, his expression fell into memory, and he began to tell the story.
"My second uncle is called Yan Yunshan, and when he went into the mountain to cut firewood that year, he rescued a baby from the mouth of a wild wolf."
"The child was only one or two years old, and she looked very cute, and the second uncle saw that she looked innocent, so he brought her home and adopted it as his own child."
"At that time, Yanjiazhuang was too poor, for the family, one more child, one more mouth, it was really very difficult to support one child."
"The second uncle's wife had already given birth to two children before, one of them was weak and sick, because he had no money to see a doctor, he died of illness in bed, and at that time he had no money to even hold a funeral, so he could only bury his body in the back mountain."
"Therefore, they especially cherish the child who survived, that is, my cousin, and the second uncle and his wife would rather not have enough to eat themselves, but they must feed their only remaining child."
"But the second uncle's kindness has become a deadly poison for his family, a poor household, to feed two children, obviously impossible, not to mention, the second uncle's wife, and very disgusted with the second uncle picked up the child who has no blood with herself, is repeatedly ostracized her, does not give her milk, does not feed her... Every time, the second uncle secretly took the little Mora he had saved to the other women in the village, exchanged it with them, and asked them to breastfeed the child, so that the child could barely grow up..."
"After saying goodbye to the age of drinking milk, the second uncle became even harder, and he could only secretly bring his leftover food to feed the child. Although the second uncle had not read the book, he still named the child Yan Ziyue, and the second uncle said that it was a very beautiful name, and he repeatedly showed off his naming skills to our group of children, and sometimes half-jokingly laughed at our father's name too tacky.
"That child has barely grown up healthy, but my second uncle Yan Yunshan is getting thinner and thinner."
"After more than ten years, that child has grown into a beautiful girl, don't hide from you, she is really beautiful, even in the most shabby clothes, it is just as eye-catching, even if it was me back then, I would quietly hide in a corner to secretly watch her."
She knew that her family was poor, and she also knew that the second uncle was good to her, so she was very diligent, and the second uncle was unable to go into the mountain to cut firewood when his legs and feet were inconvenient, so she went into the mountain alone, even if the second uncle's wife rejected her in every way, she silently accepted it. Because she has been like this since she was a child, as long as she shows something that is not in line with the queen's wishes, she gives the other party an excuse to beat and scold her, and she has never complained since she was a child... I think she should have known that she was not the second uncle's biological child.
"Their family's life could have gone on slowly, and although it was difficult, the children grew up, at least they wouldn't starve to death or something."
"But no one expected that my second wife had a ghost in her heart, in order to befriend a rich businessman from Liyue Port, she actually wanted to marry Yan Ziyue, marry into a wealthy family, and improve their family's life, but I know that the rich businessman was fifty or sixty years old at the time, and her hair was already gray, and my sister, who was not yet twenty, was the best time for a girl, cardamom years, how could she marry such a rich businessman, she should have a better life!"
"To say something that is not afraid of your laughter, when our group of young people in Yanjiazhuang found out, they all felt resentful, even I was unfair for that sister, of course, we had no right to speak at that time, naturally did not dare to speak out, disobeying the orders and wishes of those adults."
"My second wife didn't know what method was used, she said a circle in Yanjiazhuang, so that all the older generation agreed to this marriage, in their opinion, Yanjiazhuang is poor, if this marriage is completed, the entire Yanjiazhuang will climb to the rich merchant and soar to the sky from then on... Since then, they have all regarded Yan Ziyue as a treasure and let her do everything.
"In fact, everyone understands that they just regard Yan Ziyue as a cash cow, or a key to open the door to prosperity for Yan Jiazhuang."
"I guess this abnormal situation, Yan Ziyue has long been aware of it, or maybe there are young people in Yanjiazhuang who admire Yan Ziyue and secretly told her all this, but she has remained silent and did not resist."
"On the contrary, my poor second uncle has been kept in the dark, his body is getting worse and worse, his brain is getting less and less bright, and sometimes he can't even speak clearly, how can he see through his wife's schemes?"
"It was only two days before Yan Ziyue got married, my second lady told her all this, she seemed to have known for a long time, did not disobey the second niang's arrangement, she acquiesced to all this, and even obeyed the second niang's order, did not tell the second uncle all this."
"The day before I got married, I had the privilege of seeing her once, she wore a new dress sent by a rich businessman, it was a new dress woven with splendid embroidery and silk, she was so beautiful, in my impression, she had never been so beautiful, that day not only me, all the young people in Yanjiazhuang were dumbfounded."
"Everyone thought that she accepted the arrangement, and the young people gave up their own careful thinking, and the old people began to look forward to the future of Yanjiazhuang, feeling that if they were married to rich businessmen, they would have a lot of Mora in the future, until that night, something happened to them."
Until this, Yan Yan's voice suddenly stopped.
Everyone didn't know why, but Mo Ye saw that a tear appeared in the corner of Yan Yan's eyes.
He had little contact with his titular sister, but when he looked back on the story, he found that he was so familiar with her deeds.
Familiar to the point that every detail seems to have just happened, as if imprinted in his memory.
The inexplicable feeling of pity lingered in his heart for a long time, making him choke a little when he spoke.
"And then?"
Seeing that he hadn't spoken for a long time, Xingqiu reminded him.
For this kind of distant and crucial past, Xingqiu always couldn't suppress his curiosity.
In his words, this can be written into the novel, at least it can provide him with creative inspiration.
"Later..." Yan Yan raised his head slightly, looked at the starry sky, and looked extremely stunned, "On the night before Yan Ziyue got married, Yan Ziyue was defiled by her own brother..."
