Chapter 158
Yi Xue was worrying when she saw Qiu Shui running over quickly.Qiushui's martial arts foundation is good, because of Yi Xue's relationship, Qiushui can get more benefits than others, including the spring of space, so in terms of martial arts, Qiushui is not weak.

"What's wrong?" Yi Xue asked.

"Miss, hurry back and have a look, someone from the Xia family in the county is here," Qiu Shui said hastily.

Xia family?Yi Xue didn't expect their house to come so quickly, "Is it sister Yunwan?"

"No, it's a housekeeper," Qiu Shui said.

Yi Xue frowned, feeling a little disappointed and displeased, at least sister Yun Wan should come to thank her in person.

She went back with Qiushui, and saw a very beautiful carriage parked at the door. The shaft was huge, and the horse was also very handsome. The carriage was made of red fir as a whole, carved with many small patterns.There are also two horses tied to the stone pier in front of their house.

Xia Yunwan didn't come, so who was sitting in such a luxurious carriage?Yi Xue was a little puzzled.

Stepping into the side hall, I saw a man standing with his hands behind his back, with his back to him, and a man who looked like a butler stood respectfully beside him.

Tianjia was waiting at the side, seeing Yi Xue coming in, he hurriedly said, "Miss, you are here!"

Yi Xue nodded towards Tianjia while looking at the man's back.

When the man turned around, Yi Xue seemed to see her mother's face again for a split second. Yes, this was a man in his thirties, but although his face was a bit thicker, it was so similar to his mother's face and eyes.

"Are you Miss Wang Yixue?" the man said with a smile.

Yi Xue nodded, "I don't know who you are?"

The man introduced himself, "I'm Zhang Yueheng, and Xia Yunwan is my nephew. I'm here to express my thanks on behalf of my brother-in-law's family... Yunwan was going to come in person, but she was frightened yesterday, and now she's a little chilly."

His last name is Zhang?Yi Xue looked at Zhang Yueheng suspiciously. Why did she look more and more like her mother? Impossible. Mother said that their family was killed, and she was the only one left.

Vigorously pushing out the unrealistic thoughts in her head, Yi Xue said with a smile, "Please sit down, Manager Tian, ​​and ask Mrs. Jia to prepare some snacks."

I was really a little narrow-minded just now, and I blamed sister Yunwan for not coming.

"Don't bother." Zhang Yueheng quickly waved his hands and said to Yi Xue in a low voice, "This matter is no small matter, so my brother-in-law's family dare not make a big show of it, for fear of implicating the girl's family."

It was only then that Yi Xue understood why Zhang Yueheng and the housekeeper came to the Xia family. They were afraid of hurting themselves, and it was probably fake that sister Yun Wan was ill, probably to avoid suspicion.

"The carriage outside the door was given to the girl by my brother-in-law's family, thank you for saving my niece's life," Zhang Yueheng said.

Yi Xue was taken aback, that luxurious carriage was given to her?She hurriedly said, "This is impossible, Uncle Zhang, this is too precious."

Zhang Yueheng narrowed his eyes, and said with a strange expression, "Don't you want a carriage? Why don't you want it now? We keep that horse, and the carriage will be paid to you."

Yi Xue blushed instantly, Xia Yunwan, why are you talking about everything?
"Miss Yixue, I have something else to do, so I'll leave first, and I'll say hello to your mother." After Zhang Yueheng finished speaking, he took the butler out of the house.

She hurriedly chased them out, and the two men had already galloped away on horseback.

Mrs. Zhang who came back after hearing the sound was also a little dazzled when she saw Yi Xue who was in a daze in front of the door and the luxurious carriage.

"Yixue, what's going on here?" Zhang asked hastily.

Yi Xue came back to her senses, smiled and said, "Mother, our family will have a carriage in the future too."

Don't do it for nothing, anyway, I didn't do anything bad, and Yi Xue has made up her mind.

Mrs. Zhang naturally didn't understand the reason, and was about to put on a posture of educating Yi Xue. When Yi Xue saw it, she immediately said, "Mother, I have something very important to ask you."

Mrs. Zhang's prepared speech was interrupted abruptly by Yi Xue, so she could only ask, "What's wrong?"

Pulling her mother into her room, Yi Xue told Qiushui to look out the door and not allow anyone to come in.

Seeing Yi Xue being so solemn, Mrs. Zhang became a little nervous instead, feeling her left eyelid twitching non-stop.

"Mother, at that time you said that the family of great-grandfather and grandma were all sentenced to death, and no one is alive?" Yi Xue stared closely at Zhang's eyes.

When Mrs. Zhang heard Yi Xue asked this, she sat back, her body seemed to have softened, her eyelids drooped, and she touched Yi Xue's hand, "Yes, I was the only one who escaped the catastrophe back then when I was young."

"Anyone else? Like your sister, like your brother?" Yi Xue asked.

When Mrs. Zhang heard Yi Xue say this, her body shook suddenly, and she said like a memory, "I remember that there seemed to be an older sister and an older brother. I was too young at the time, and I even forgot what they looked like. At that time, my sister was already married, and as for my elder brother, it seems... I don’t remember her anymore.”

Yi Xue felt that her guess seemed to be correct, could there be such a coincidence in the world?

"Mother, do you still remember your brother's name?" Yi Xue asked.

Mrs. Zhang tried hard to recall, "It seems to be called Zhang... Zhang Yue?"

"It's called Zhang Yueheng," Yi Xue asked straight away.

Mrs. Zhang seemed to be clicked, her eyes were dull, and then a pair of childhood memories appeared in front of her eyes.

"Brother, wait for me." The little girl wore cute double braids and staggered after the boy who was a head taller than herself.

"Sister, hurry up, big brother will be back soon and brought us a lot of delicious food." The boy turned around and held his little sister's little hand.

"Zhang Yueheng, hurry up and bring your younger sister. Grandpa has given out red envelopes." A kind-hearted woman smiled and held the hands of the two of them.

"Mom, I want a big red envelope," the little girl smiled.

"Your Imperial Envoy has arrived..." Suddenly there was a high voice, and then I saw many indistinct adults in armor surrounding the whole family.

The imperial envoy read the imperial decree, and the little girl was terrified when she finished listening to it. She only heard four words, guilty and beheaded.

Suddenly it seemed like the sky was falling, there were crying and shouting, grandparents, fathers, mothers, and uncles, the older brothers were all wearing shackles, only the younger brother was holding his little hand tightly.

"Sister, don't be afraid, we are young, they won't kill us", Zhang Yueheng's face was full of tears.

That night, the little girl had a high fever, and after that, she wandered many places with her mother, and only later did she understand that she had been assigned.But my mother died of illness that year.

Zhang's tears couldn't stop streaming down, Yi Xue hugged her mother's shoulder.

"Mother, everything will be fine, don't cry," Yi Xue also cried.

"Yixue, how did you know your uncle's name is Zhang Yueheng?", Mrs. Zhang grabbed Yi Xue's hand excitedly, she knew that Yi Xue must have discovered something, it must be.

Yi Xue patted Mother's arm, "Mother, don't get excited, I'll tell you slowly"

Yi Xue recounted the scene of meeting Zhang Yueheng just now, and Zhang shi wiped her tears and said, "It must be him,...it must be him, the Xia family, your aunt married into the Xia family back then."

"I was too young at the time, so I remembered it was Xia's family, but I've been living here for so many years, I've forgotten it long ago, Yixue, if you hadn't reminded me, I wouldn't have remembered it," Zhang said, her face flushed, and it was blamed just now. Why didn't I come earlier, maybe the siblings will recognize each other.

Yi Xue was also very happy, she finally found her relatives, and her mother also had relatives.

"Yixue, let's go now and find them," Zhang said excitedly.

Yi Xue chuckled, then pressed the excited Zhang, "Mother, it's not suitable for you to go now."

Mrs. Zhang touched her crying face, "Yes, yes, I'll clean it up."

Mrs. Zhang went out to tidy herself up, but Yi Xue was a little worried.The Xia family is a well-known family in Huawang City, and my family is a farmer. If they recognize each other, will they think highly of my family?Besides, I just met someone who was unfavorable to the Xia family yesterday, isn't it the right time to go now?

If my family is also targeted, I'm afraid there will be some trouble.But now that my mother is in such a mood, I'm afraid it won't be easy to stop her.

It seems that it is necessary to find out who the Xia family has offended and what danger is there.She is not afraid of enemies, but of unknown enemies.

It seems that I can only persuade my mother tactfully, and wait until I figure it out.

After a while, Mrs. Zhang came in, wearing a light pink Xuangong brocade dress that she had never worn before. It fit her perfectly and made her skin white. This dress has been made for a long time , but my mother has never worn it.The face is lightly smeared with powder, and the thickness is even.The spirit of the whole person has changed and become younger.

"Yixue, am I okay?" Zhang asked with a blushing face, she was still a little restrained in showing her figure in front of her daughter.

Yi Xue was a little dumbfounded, she had never seen her mother dress herself up on purpose, and she never put on makeup.Obviously, such a big surprise stimulated her.

Yi Xue suddenly didn't know how to persuade her mother, she just said, "It's pretty, it's really pretty"

"Mother, you should call Xiaojun and the others here, they have the right to know about this," Yi Xue said, she had no choice but to delay.

In the outer courtyard, in An Wuya's room, Xu Lei was sitting opposite An Wuya.

"Fortunately, it's okay," An Wuya said with a sigh of relief.

"Eldest brother, those two people are not weak in kung fu, is Ghost Gate really that powerful?" Xu Lei asked.

"Amazing?" An Wuya snorted coldly, "What is the Ghost Sect? Compared with the Longmen Sect of the Great Tang Empire, it is much worse."

"Longmen Sect? Aren't we the strongest in the Tang Dynasty?" Xu Lei asked in surprise.

An Wuya suddenly felt that he had said the wrong thing, "Of course we are the strongest, but the Longmen Sect is not much different from us. It seems that the Ghost Sect is going to attack."

"What hand are you moving?" Xu Lei asked with a confused face.

An Wuya did not explain, but said, "From now on, you will stay here to protect Miss Yixue, and I will naturally explain to Master."
