The Marquis's Mansion is a cannibalistic hell, the daughter of the emperor is being bloodbathed

Chapter 209: Appeasing Xiaokang [3rd update! Request for more! ]

At this time, from the small Buddhist hall in Rong'an Hall, the sound of hitting wooden fish continued to be heard.

Every time the bell was struck, Mr. Kang would turn a Buddhist bead and chant the Buddha's name at the same time.

Her expression was very sincere and there was no slackness in her expression.

Nanny Xu was serving carefully at the side. After receiving the news of the Kang family's death in the morning, the old lady went into the Buddhist hall and has been chanting ever since.

Finally, after old Kang struck the wooden fish for the last time, he put down the hammer.

Nanny Xu waited until she had respectfully worshipped the Buddha before she stepped forward and helped the person up.

"Madam, you have worked hard."

Nanny Xu helped her sit aside, served the ginseng tea to old Kang, then squatted down and gently kneaded her legs.

Old Kang drank the ginseng tea and sighed.

"Go to the Kang family later and give them five hundred taels of silver. Bring back the second wife. She is just a woman, and she can't help much if she stays in the Kang family."

After all, Campbell is her nephew, so how can she not feel sorry for him? But no one can save him because of what he has done.

Fortunately, the Marquis didn't know about this matter yet, otherwise both Xiaokang and I would probably be driven out of the Marquis's Mansion.

Madam Xu nodded and said, "I will go there in a moment."

"Go now!" Old Mrs. Kang waved her hand and let her go.

After Nanny Xu agreed, she called two little maids in and continued to massage old Kang's legs.

On the Kang family's side, plain white silk was hung everywhere, and people coming in and out were also wearing white linen clothes.

Xiaokang sat under the eaves, still unable to believe that her most beloved brother was really gone.

"Madame Ji, is Bailey really gone?"

She couldn't tell whether she was relieved or extremely upset at this moment. She wanted to cry again, but her tears seemed to have dried up and she couldn't shed any more tears.

"Second Madam, please accept my condolences!" Nanny Ji consoled.

She was very nervous at the moment, fearing that Xiao Kang would suddenly say something she shouldn't, so she didn't dare let her stay with the old couple of the Kang family, for fear of being exposed.

When Nanny Xu arrived, she went to see the old couple of the Kang family first. Old Madam Kang cried her heart out. Her youngest son was gone suddenly, leaving her an old man sending off a young one. This feeling was more painful than killing her.

After Aunt Xu said a few words of comfort, she took out the silver and said she wanted to take Xiaokang back.

The old couple of the Kang family naturally thought that there was no problem, but they were also worried when they saw Xiao Kang's absent-minded look.

Rather than letting her stay here and feel uncomfortable, it would be better for her to return to the Marquis' Mansion.

Xiao Kang returned to the Marquis' Mansion with unsteady steps. She was in low spirits. After returning to the Marquis' Mansion, she did not go to Rong'an Hall to see Old Kang, but went to bed directly.

At nightfall, Nanny Ji discovered that Xiaokang also had a high fever and hurried to call a doctor.

He was busy all night, and even called over to check on old Mrs. Kang. It was not until the next morning that young Mrs. Kang's fever subsided.

But her overall spirit and energy were not good. The doctor said she was too sad and needed to be well taken care of.

After Su Qingwan knew what the doctor said, she couldn't help but laugh.

Xiaokang's illness was not just excessive grief, she was also afraid, after all, Campbell really died in her hands.

"Miss, you are right. The Second Madam did not go out today."

After Aunt Rong went for a walk outside, she ran back to report the news to Su Qingwan and Jiang.

Su Qingwan said: "Second Aunt is very ill, it's normal that she can't go to see Campbell off for the last time."

"I didn't expect my second sister-in-law to be so sentimental. She has been sick for many days and has not recovered yet." Jiang sighed.

"The doctor said that she was too sad and had depression caused by excessive grief, but it's understandable. After all, her own brother is gone. Why don't I go and persuade her. Today is the day of Campbell's funeral, and Second Aunt must be very sad that she can't see him off." Su Qingwan said kindly.

"Okay, go ahead then, and say something nice, so as not to make her sad again."

Jiang just thought Su Qingwan was kind-hearted and didn't think too much about it. She felt that if someone was talking to Xiaokang, she wouldn't have any wild thoughts.

"I know." Su Qingwan agreed readily. She knew best how to stab someone and make them feel pain.

Not long after, Su Qingwan arrived at the second room.

Xiao Kang sat on the couch by the window, thinking only of Campbell.

I think of the time when he used to pester me to play when he was little, the time when he asked me for money later, the time when he made money and proudly gave it to me to spend...

Although Campbell was a good-for-nothing, he was still good to his sister. When the master wanted to take a concubine in the past, he was the only one who helped him. But now her brother was lying in a coffin and was being carried to the mountain.

"Second Madam, the fourth lady is here to see you." A maid outside delivered the message.

"No see! Get lost!"

Xiaokang felt upset when she saw Su Qingwan, and she took the things that her aunt was going to give to Li Han.

Su Lihan cried for several days because of this, but what could she do? The thing was given away by the old lady, and even if she was angry, it would be of no use.

"Second aunt, I know you are very sad because of the funeral of my uncle from the Kang family today, but how can you hide in your room and not see anyone?"

As Su Qingwan was talking, someone walked in.

The old woman who tried to block the door just now was pushed aside by Aunt Rong.

These people all knew that Aunt Rong had a pair of iron palms, and one slap from her would definitely make their teeth fall out. They didn't dare to go against her, so no one stopped them from entering the main house.

"Get out, I don't want to see you now." Xiao Kang said angrily.

This is her own yard, and Su Qingwan can come in whenever she wants. She is such a jerk.

"Then Second Aunt, just close your eyes so you can't see me."

Su Qingwan sat down aside and looked at Xiaokang. He looked much more haggard and thinner.

"You..." Xiao Kang saw Su Qingwan sitting down by herself and was so angry that she really closed her eyes. It seemed that she felt better without being able to see her.

"Second aunt, I never thought that your brother would die young. He died of a cold. Alas! I don't know if he did something bad. How could he be dead?"

Su Qingwan said with a puzzled look.

Xiaokang felt upset after hearing this, so she ignored what Su Qingwan said and just thought that she would leave when she had said enough.

"Just close your eyes to mourn your brother. His face is extremely pale, his eye bags are dark blue, and his whole body is icy cold. He is three inches off the ground, moving without wind, and slowly floats towards you, calling you sister, with a sad and resentful voice. He stretches out a pair of knife-like hands, locks your neck, and blood spurts out of your seven orifices instantly..."

However, Su Qingwan did not leave at all, and she even talked about souls with Xiaokang.

"Ah! You shut up!"

Xiaokang was so frightened that her face turned pale and her whole body was shaking. She felt very upset.

Isn't that little bitch Su Qingwan stabbing her in the heart?

"Second aunt, when I was in Mo Nan, I heard from the old people that the deceased will go to find the person they miss the most on the night of the Return of the Soul. When my uncle from the Kang family was still alive, I always heard that he liked to come to the Marquis' Mansion to find you. So, did he come to find you after he died?"

Su Qingwan asked with great curiosity, as if she didn't think what she said was scary at all. Instead, she seemed to be verifying whether the rumor was true.

"Listen, listen, I feel someone calling you, it's so cold! Gusts of cold wind are blowing into the house..."
