The useless second daughter of the Hua family

Chapter 145: Strange Pit in the Field

At night, the village chief insisted that Hua Miaomiao and Yin Xuan stay overnight, and the two were arranged in the same room. Hua Miaomiao refused in her heart, but it was difficult to refuse.

Gu Zi likes Hua Miaomiao and insists on sleeping with her at night, but Yin Xuan grabs him by the scruff of the neck and throws him out of the room.

Hua Miaomiao looked at him with amusement, "Guzi is just a child."

"He is a man, too. You have to be responsible for his future wife. Besides, I don't even have the same treatment, so what good can he expect?"

Hua Miaomiao couldn't help but hit him with a pillow, "What about you? Where are you going to sleep tonight?"

Upon hearing this, Yin Xuan walked step by step to the bedside and forced Hua Miaomiao back to the foot of the bed.

He put on a wicked smile, leaned close to Hua Miaomiao's ear and said, "We are husband and wife, so of course we sleep together. How can we have a child if we don't sleep together?"

"Yin Xuan!" Hua Miaomiao pushed him away in frustration, "I'm warning you, don't do anything stupid."

Yin Xuan saw that she was really angry, so he stopped teasing her. He turned over and lay down on the bed, playing tricks on her.

"There's only one bed. You can't let me sleep on the floor. I'm a human being now. Humans sleep on beds."

For the first time, Hua Miaomiao felt that she had shot herself in the foot. She stood up angrily, opened the door and left the room.

There seemed to be something in the bushes, frightened by the noise of her opening the door, and it made a rustling sound and ran away.

Hua Miaomiao didn't think much about it. There were plenty of pheasants and rabbits in the countryside, so she didn't take it seriously.

The next morning, the village was in an uproar.

Hua Miaomiao was awakened by the noise outside the house and found herself lying alone in bed. She was clearly sitting in the yard before she fell asleep last night. No need to ask, it must be Yin Xuan who moved her in in the middle of the night.

Just as I was thinking about it, Yin Xuan came in holding Rourou.

"What's going on outside?"

"The villagers came to report that a piece of the farmland had collapsed, and everyone was discussing the matter."

Hua Miaomiao felt puzzled. The crops were already ready to be harvested. If they collapsed, they could just be harvested. What was there to discuss?

When she arrived at the scene and saw the situation clearly, she realized that this was how the collapse happened.

An area of ​​land about two acres in size had sunk to form a huge pit.

Some villagers said that they seemed to hear the sound of a collapse before dawn, but as they felt that nothing was wrong around them, they did not pay much attention to it.

After the village chief comforted everyone and sent them back home, he came to Hua Miaomiao and Yin Xuan alone with a very ugly look on his face.

Hua Miaomiao guessed that he must know something, and waited quietly for him to speak.

"Come with me."

He brought the two of them to the village's ancestral hall, where the ancestors of the Ge family were enshrined.

He first lit a stick of incense for his ancestors, and after bowing three times and kowtowed nine times, he stood up, locked the door, turned around and knelt down to Yin Xuan and the others.

Hua Miaomiao was shocked and hurried forward to help him up, but the village chief insisted on kneeling. With tears streaming down his face, he said to Yin Xuan tremblingly, "I feel ashamed of the old patriarch's trust. The ancestral tomb of the Ge family has been disturbed."

Hua Miaomiao and Yin Xuan looked at each other, hoping that he could find relevant information from his memory. However, seeing his eyes shining and even eager to try, they no longer held out hope.

The village chief didn't want to get up, so Hua Miaomiao simply pulled up her skirt and sat on the ground.

"Uncle, stop kneeling. Sit down and tell us what's going on."

Seeing her so free and easy, Yin Xuan also sat down on the ground, and pushed the village chief to change from kneeling to sitting.

The village chief sighed and told them about the ancestral grave.

Gejia Village is where the Ge family was founded, and the ancestral tomb is in this mountain. Originally, only a few people in the family knew about this, but this spring, rain and floods caused a landslide, and a stone that held the tomb was exposed.

The villagers were honest and the majority of them were from the Ge family. Even though they knew there was a large tomb in the mountain, they thought it probably belonged to their ancestors, so no one thought of taking the burial objects in the tomb.

But I never expected that someone would actually do this. Now the mechanism in the tomb has been activated and the entrance has collapsed, which means that the person has entered, and I don’t know what the situation is in the tomb.

"Wouldn't it be very dangerous for anyone who goes in?" Hua Miaomiao asked worriedly.

Yin Xuan laughed contemptuously, "People like that deserve to die, they don't deserve sympathy."

Hua Miaomiao frowned slightly. Although she also felt that tomb robbing was extremely detrimental to one's moral character, Yin Xuan's contempt for human life made her feel a little nervous.

"How is my cousin going to deal with this matter?"

"I have sent someone to inform the head of the family. We will make the final decision after he arrives."

This was fine, Hua Miaomiao and Yin Xuan stayed in the village temporarily. The collapsed land was fenced off, and everyone tacitly avoided it.

Two days later, the blessing ceremony was held as scheduled, and Yin Xuan, as the representative of the Ge family, lit the first incense stick.

He returned to Hua Miaomiao and whispered to her, "I have always been the only one receiving incense from others, but I never thought that there would be a day when I would have to offer incense to someone else. All this is for you."

Hua Miaomiao laughed dryly twice, indicating that she did not want to accept this favor. But she changed her mind and thought that it was a good thing that Taoyao was not here, otherwise, she did not know whether the world would change color after this bow.

She was amused by her own thoughts. Yin Xuan saw that her mind was wandering off again and a gloom gradually covered her face.

Harvest is a hard but happy thing. Looking at the abundant harvest, the villagers' faces are full of smiles, and the fields are filled with laughter.

Ge Qingcheng rode as fast as he could and finally arrived in the afternoon of the festival day. To Hua Miaomiao's surprise, Hua Niaoniao also came.

Hua Miaomiao couldn't help but look behind them, then looked away in disappointment.

As soon as Hua Niaoniao saw her expression, she knew who she was looking for and said jokingly, "No need to look, it's just the two of us."

Hua Miaomiao was exposed and felt a little embarrassed. She said stubbornly, "No, I didn't. Why are you here too, sister?"

Hua Niaoniao glared at Ge Qingcheng and said, "This guy just said that something happened here, but he didn't say what it was. I didn't want my family to worry, so I didn't tell anyone else and followed him here alone."

Hua Miaomiao thought, brother can't sit still anymore, is he finally ready to take action? How about giving him a hand?

"You can't blame my brother for this. This is a matter related to the secrets of the Ge family. I can reveal a little to you and let you come with me. This is already considered not treating you as an outsider."

Hua Niaoniao pinched her face in annoyance, "Which side are you from? Why are your elbows turned outward?"

"It's unfair, my Lord."

Ge Qingcheng stood not far away, watching the two sisters playing, his face full of satisfaction.

"Are you satisfied just by looking at it like this?" A sinister voice sounded in his ears.

Ge Qingcheng looked at Yin Xuan in confusion, waiting for him to continue.

"Hua Niaoniao is the head of the Hua family. She will most likely marry a son-in-law. My respected brother, can you do this?"

"I……"

"One day, she will get married, and you will only be able to watch from afar like you do now."

"Then tell me, what should I do?"

Yin Xuan walked around behind him and put his hand on his shoulder, looking like a good brother.

"Ge Qingcheng can't marry into the family, but Ge Qinglan can. After Miaomiao and I are together, I will go back with her to inherit the Hua family. After all, she is the real legitimate daughter. And you, brother, just wait to marry Hua Niaoniao."

Ge Qingcheng said thoughtfully: "Well said."

"What's good about it? It's simply perfect." Yin Xuan looked proud.

Unexpectedly, Ge Qingcheng changed the subject and said to him with a playful look: "I mean, Miaomiao's summary of you is good and very accurate. You think you can deceive people's hearts, but in fact you know nothing about human hearts. You are so naive and cute."

"you!"

Hua Miaomiao, who was not far away, laughed out loud. Hua Niaoniao held a sound transmission bell in her hand, which was given to her by Ge Qingcheng before she came. The sound transmission bells were originally a pair, and each of them held one. Within ten miles, they could communicate with each other through their thoughts, so that they could take care of each other.

The conditions for using this thing were too harsh. Hua Niaoniao felt that it was of little use and didn't want it at first, but she couldn't resist Ge Qingcheng's enthusiasm and accepted it.

Hua Miaomiao saw a new thing on her sister's waist and said she wanted to take a look. But when Hua Niaoniao took it off, the other party was talking about them, and Ge Qingcheng's hand unconsciously groped for the sound transmission bell. Everything was so coincidental, the two sisters heard every word of Yin Xuan's words.

Hua Miaomiao saw that her sister looked unhappy, and wondered if it was because of Yin Xuan’s words that made her think of her and Ge Qingcheng.

"Sister, you and brother, you..."

"We have nothing!" Hua Niaoniao interrupted Hua Miaomiao. She angrily pressed the voice transmission bell in Hua Miaomiao's hand and turned away.

"sister!"

When Ge Qingcheng heard her voice, he turned around and saw Hua Miaomiao picking up the sound transmission bell to signal him. He secretly cried out that something was wrong and chased after Hua Niaoniao.
