Chief Forced Marriage: Beloved Wife Captured

Chapter 167

She paused for a moment: "I know, you definitely don't want me to say it, but I really want to tell him that at least life and death are uncertain, and there is still a hope for a new character. As long as there is a glimmer of hope, why can't Beicheng go find him?" Mother..."

Hearing that the fake mother-in-law couldn't bear the blow and fainted several times, Jingya didn't go upstairs to see her. In her heart, anyone who never put her in the eyes of her didn't deserve her sympathy.

There was the sound of footsteps behind her, she turned her head, and a domestic servant who was watching the night ran over and said, "Young Mistress, there is a woman outside the door who said she came to mourn the master."

"Now?"

Jingya was a little surprised, now it's midnight, how could anyone come to mourn at this time, it's too outrageous!

"What about people?"

"It's just outside the door. Because it's too late, I asked her to come back tomorrow, but she insisted on coming in and offering incense sticks before leaving."

"Let her in."

Jingya walked to the door of the mourning hall and looked around suspiciously. After a while, a domestic servant led a woman over.

From a distance, with the help of the moonlight, she saw the woman with her head slightly lowered, wearing a black lace hat, her entire face was blocked by the black netting, and she couldn't see her face clearly at all.

She was wearing a Chinese-style cheongsam with sky-blue ceramic patterns printed on it, and a fluffy shawl on the outside. Her steps were elegant, and she looked like a lady of great temperament.

"Hello, are you my father-in-law's friend?" Jingya stepped forward to greet her.

The woman didn't speak, but walked straight into the mourning hall. When she reached the center, she stared quietly at Ye Guoxian's photo, picked up a stick of incense and lit it, bent down and bowed twice, and then continued to stare at Ye Guoxian without saying a word. forward.

Jingya stood behind her, staring at her back, wondering who this woman was, and why she looked so mysterious.

"Hello, are you my father-in-law's friend or old acquaintance?"

Just now Jingya had already asked her, but the woman ignored her, unable to restrain her curiosity, she stepped forward to ask again.

It's just a pity that the woman still didn't speak.

Jingya thought, this woman is either dumb, who can hear but cannot speak, or deaf, who can speak but cannot hear...

If it weren't for these two possibilities, how could someone be so indifferent and aloof? Although she still hasn't seen the woman's face clearly, judging from her figure, back view and clothes, she must have been a peerless beauty when she was young.

Since she couldn't get an answer to her questions, Jingya didn't want to make fun of herself any longer. She stood aside quietly, waited for the woman to finish offering incense, thanked her, and continued to watch after she left.

After the woman stood for about 10 minutes, she turned around suddenly, but her face was still hidden by the lace, so Jingya knew that she was leaving, so she quickly bowed and said, "Thank you."

The woman was indeed about to leave. She walked slowly, and when she passed by Jingya, she stopped suddenly, and said unexpectedly, "Are you Ye Guoxian's daughter-in-law?"

The very soft voice was not as cold and high-spirited as the appearance, Jingya was surprised, and said stupidly: "So you are not dumb..."

As soon as the words came out of my mouth, I was surprised that it was too impolite. Maybe others just didn't want to talk, so how could they say that others are dumb!

"Yes, ma'am." Jingya nodded.

"We met for the first time, this is for you." She suddenly took a bracelet off her wrist and put it in Jingya's hand. Before Jingya could react, she had already left the mourning hall quickly, and her figure disappeared into the vast night...

Jingya was stunned for a long time like a wooden stake, holding the jade bracelet that the woman gave her just now in one hand, and after thinking about it for a long time before she woke up, she lowered her head, stared at the bracelet in her hand, and muttered in surprise: " Why did you give me such a precious thing..."

She lifted the bracelet up and spun it a few times against the light. The natural color and exquisite workmanship made it worth a lot of money at first glance, but it was too strange. Why would you give something to a stranger when you met for the first time?
Is this the way women are used to?

No, no, Jingya shook her head, who has more money, this bracelet is worn on the woman's wrist, so it can be seen that she just wanted it temporarily.

Improvised?She frowned and said to herself: "On a temporary basis, I gave Ye Guoxian's daughter-in-law a bracelet. What does she mean? Could it be because of her unusual relationship with her father-in-law? Could it be..."

Jingya's eyes were wide open, and she suddenly ran out, ran to the door and asked anxiously the servant who had been on guard just now: "Where's that woman from just now?"

"Go away..."

"Going away?" She hurried to the door, facing the dark road, stomping her feet angrily!

"Young Mistress, what's the matter?" the domestic helper asked nervously.

"Which direction did she go?"

"I did not notice……"

"You!" Jingya rubbed her forehead speechlessly, and said fiercely to the servant for the first time: "Why are you so stupid!"

She turned around and entered the house depressed. The servant looked at her furious back, scratched her head in doubt, and muttered: "I'm so stupid..."

Back in the middle of the mourning hall, Jingya stared at her father-in-law's soul photo excitedly and asked, "Dad, tell me, that woman just now...is she Beicheng's biological mother?"

Dead people can't speak, so no one can answer her question.

She knelt on the ground decadently, staring at the bracelet in her hand in frustration, hating herself for being so slow in reacting just now. If she had reacted earlier, she might have been able to fulfill her promise for her father-in-law before his funeral. Then, her father-in-law could also die in peace up...

"Yu Jingya, you still say that others are stupid, you are the one!!"

She twisted herself severely. If she lost the opportunity this time, she would have to wait until that year and month before she could meet that woman again...

He blamed himself all night, and when it was daylight, Ye Beicheng went downstairs. He stared at Jingya's annoyed face, and asked softly, "Are you tired?"

"Not tired." Jingya raised her chin, looked at him guiltily, and said unconsciously: "Beicheng is sorry, I am very useless."

Ye Beicheng frowned: "Why do you have to apologize?"

"I..." She bit her lower lip in embarrassment, and turned her eyes to the left. Her father-in-law was looking at her sharply, as if condemning her for breaking her original promise...

"It's nothing." She swallowed the words abruptly, she didn't want to let him die in front of her father-in-law.

Although the fake mother-in-law Dou Huayue is very annoying, but no matter how wrong people are, there is nothing wrong with love.

Today is the day of Master Ye's funeral, and the whole Ye family was enveloped in a strong sense of sadness. Jingya looked at Beicheng suppressing the pain in her heart, and she felt that a piece of her heart had been dug out. While feeling sad, she There is also a little bit of luck, glad that Beicheng's biological mother is still alive. Although she missed her, at least it proves that Beicheng is no longer an orphan.

Dou Huayue went downstairs with the help of a servant, her face was ugly, but when she saw Jingya, it was even uglier.

In front of many people, she asked aloud, "Why are you here?"

Jingya said neither humble nor overbearing: "Dad passed away, as a daughter-in-law, I should be filial."

"Daughter-in-law?" Dou Huayue sneered: "Are you out of your mind? Could it be that my son divorced you, don't you remember?!"

She almost yelled the last sentence. Ye Beicheng walked in from the outside, and when he saw the stalemate in the middle of the mourning hall, he immediately understood what was going on. There is no real divorce, so she is still my wife, the daughter-in-law of the Ye family!"

"What nonsense are you talking about, the divorce agreement has been signed, so it's not a real divorce?!" Dou Huayue roared angrily.

"Is it effective after signing it? If the husband and wife sign an agreement casually and pass it without going through legal procedures, what does the Civil Affairs Bureau do?!"

"But didn't your agreement be sent to the Civil Affairs Bureau?"

"So what if I send it off? If I want it to pass, it doesn't have to pass!"

"you……"

Dou Huayue was so angry that she was trembling all over. If she hadn't been helped by the domestic servant, she might have collapsed.

"Today is my dad's funeral. When he was alive, you can forget about it. Now that he is dead, please let him rest in peace."

Ye Beicheng cast a cold glance at his mother, took Jingya's hand and walked out of the mourning hall.

The father-in-law finally went to the ground, and with deep regret and concern, he waved goodbye to the world.

Jingya was in a heavy mood all day, and she didn't sleep all night last night, so she finally fainted from exhaustion. When she woke up, she was lying in the bedroom, her and Ye Beicheng's bedroom.

Sitting up with support, I was surprised to find that there was a person standing in front of the window, the heroine in Xiaoju's story.

Seeing Yang Qianxue suddenly, Jingya remembered that she hadn't seen her father-in-law's funeral from yesterday to today, so she asked curiously, "Why didn't you show up when my father-in-law passed away?"

"You said it was your father-in-law, why should I show up? What position do I have to show up?!"

Jingya frowned in displeasure: "You have lived in the Ye family for a while, even if Beicheng didn't give you a title, you should still offer a stick of incense for my father-in-law!"

"Heh, why should I offer incense? The death of his Ye family is none of my business. Since no one takes me seriously, it's best for them all to die, out of sight and out of mind."

Jingya shouted in shock: "Yang Qianxue, are you talking in human language? Don't think that you can speak unscrupulously because you have the trump card of Dudu. Let me tell you, I know all your secrets!"

"Oh? Really? What secret do I have? Let's hear it."

Yang Qianxue smiled disdainfully, her expression calm.

Jingya suppressed her anger and did not immediately tell the story of Guanmei Fishing Village. Now that something happened to the Ye family and Beicheng is also in pain, revealing the truth at this time will only scare the snake. If Yang Qianxue escapes with Dudu, then she The promise made to Dongzi and Aunt Ah Xiang will not be fulfilled again.

"You go out, I don't want to see you."

Jingya turned her face away and issued an order to evict the guest.

"If you don't want to see me, you can go out? I'm not a servant of the Ye family, so why do you let me go?"

"Okay! If you don't go, I will go!"

Angrily, Jingya jumped off the bed, quickly put on her shoes and ran out of the bedroom. Just as she was about to go downstairs, someone behind her called her: "Jingya...Jingya..."

It was the elder sister's voice, she turned around in surprise, saw the elder sister standing in the corridor with tears in her eyes, she ran over in distress, took her hand and said, "Elder sister, what's the matter?"

"You are a liar."
