1878: C1878 The Winter of That Year

C1878 The Winter of That Year

Fourteen years!

The winter of this year seemed exceptionally cold.

In the morning, when people woke up, they found that the entire Imperial City was covered with snow.

Marquis Manor!

It was a snow-white world wrapped in silver. The lake in the house of the Marquis was also surrounded by white snow, and the lake in the middle had already frozen over. Some of the servants were walking on the ice.

Madame Lin's sons, Lan Jianyi and Lan Jianhui, were playing happily with Lan Xiuxin. The snow excited them.

"Hey, Sixth Brother!" Lan Jianhui said, "Did you hear? That bastard's mother spat out blood again last night. I think she won't be able to make it today."

Lan Jianyi was only eight years old, but he had a look of disdain on his face. Hearing that, she said, "A lowly slave's life is worth less than a servant's. If she dies, then so be it." "What's the matter? If it wasn't for mom telling me not to go to that house for the next two days, I would have that little bastard give me the backpack."

Lan Jianhui laughed and said, "Sixth brother, you! Every time you are the most evil, you still pretend to be a good person in front of that little bastard. And the little bastard is grateful to you, but every time you come up with a bad idea? "

Lan Jianyi chuckled and said, "That's more fun. That little bastard is like a pig, he's too easy to cheat."

"You guys are really going too far." "…" Lan Xiuxin was so angry that her face turned red. Jianyi, Tingyu is very pitiful, and now her mother is sick again. "How can you say that about him? He and us are both father's children."

"But his mother is a lowly servant, a foxy girl!" Lan Jianyi said, "Mom always said that. Mom said that the seductress seduced dad, so she had this little bastard."

"I can't be bothered with you!" Lili was so angry that she turned around and left.

This year, Lili was nine years old. She was wearing a fox fur coat and her boots were silver. She walked in the snow, followed by two Maidservant.

Lan Xiuxin's face was red from the cold, and she kept rubbing her hands.

"Miss, it's too cold outside. Let's hurry back to our room." Maidservant said.

Lan Xiuxin said, "I'll go see Seventh Brother!"

Lili was surprised and said, "How can we do that? Madam told us that no one is allowed to go near the house or deliver medicine to them."

"Mother is too much." Lan Xiuxin's eyes turned red.

She might be the only unusual person in the Lan family, but she was naturally kind-hearted.

Lan Xiuxin soon arrived at the cabin, which was right next to the woodshed, which had once belonged to a resident, but was later moved out by Madame Lin and given to Ye Luanfeng and her son.

When Ye Luanfeng had first entered the house, she had lived in a large house in the west wing. But Madame Lin had found a chance two years ago to kick Ye Luanfeng and Lan Tingyu out.

Before Lan Xiuxin got close, she heard the sound of a violent cough coming from inside the house.

Then came Lan Tingyu's young and terrified voice. With a sobbing tone...

"Mother, Mother …" Mom, don't scare me. " Lan Tingyu said while crying.

Lan Xiuxin came to the window, secretly poked a hole and looked inside. The two Maidservant girls were relieved to see that Lan Xiuxin had not entered the house.

At this moment, Lan Xiuxin could see that the room was extremely dark, and a cold and gloomy atmosphere was being emitted.

"Why is there no charcoal in such a cold weather?" Lan Xiuxin muttered to herself. She saw the six-year-old on the bed in the room. His clothes were thin and he was trembling. He handed a bowl of hot tea to Ye Luanfeng on the bed.

Ye Luanfeng was already very haggard, as haggard as a sixty year old woman.

Ye Luanfeng was actually over a hundred years old, but this should be very young. This was because she was already an extreme expert, and only her cultivation level was crippled. However, his body was still eighteen years old.

All these years, her life had been too harsh.

Lili looked at him bitterly. She remembered the first time she saw Ye Luanfeng. She had been kind and graceful, beautiful and dignified, like a goddess in heaven. But now, it became like this.

"Yu'er …" After Ye Luanfeng coughed, she felt a little better. She looked weakly at the poor little fellow.

The little fellow's eyes were filled with tears.

"Yu'er, don't cry …"

The little guy immediately wiped away his tears and nodded heavily. "Mother, you won't let Yu'er cry, so Yu'er won't cry."

Lili's eyes turned red as she said, "Yu Er, mother has let you down. She wants you to suffer through her."

The little guy shook his head and said, "No, as long as mother is with Yu'er, she will be the happiest."

"But, what if mother isn't here anymore?" Ye Luanfeng said.

The little fellow was dumbfounded.

He looked pitifully at Ye Luanfeng. Mother, I will listen obediently in the future. Even if they hit me, I will not retaliate.

Lili burst into tears.

Suddenly, she started to cough violently.

The little guy was scared out of his wits and quickly patted Ye Luanfeng on the back.

Ye Luanfeng coughed and covered it with a handkerchief. She hid her handkerchief from Lan Tingyu.

Lan Xiuxin knew Ye Luanfeng was coughing up blood. From the looks of it, Ye Luanfeng wasn't going to make it today.

After a while, Lan Tingyu suddenly left the room. He was not afraid of the cold, and with his tiny body in the snow, it was extremely difficult for him to walk one deep, shallow step.

Lan Xiuxin followed.

Lan Tingyu arrived at the main gate of the house of the Marquis and waited.

Lan Xiuxin watched from afar and immediately understood that he was waiting for his father's return.

It wasn't that Lan Xiuxin didn't want to help Lan Tingyu, but she didn't know how.

"Go find a thick robe and bring some charcoal to the small house." Lan Xiuxin thought for a moment, then instructed Maidservant, who was beside her.

Maidservant immediately became embarrassed and said, "Miss, this …"

"If you don't go, I'll tell my mother that you've been disrespectful to my father." Lan Xiuxin said.

Maidservant was startled and had no choice but to go.

Lan Xiuxin knew that at this point, any kind of doctor was useless.

Maidservant quickly found a thick robe. Lan Xiuxin took a thick robe and came up behind Lan Tingyu. She put it on him. Lan Tingyu turned around and saw Lan Xiuxin.

A hint of fear flashed across his eyes.

This fear made Lan Xiuxin's heart ache.

She knew that her brothers bullied him too much. He's just a child!

That was why he was so afraid of people with the Lan surname.

Lan Tingyu whispered after a while, "Thank you!"

At this moment, there was a commotion outside the manor.

The servants and guards at the entrance knelt down to greet him.

The butler, Hope, led the way. Master Hou and Lan Tianji returned in a carriage. The carriage was extremely luxurious, and there was even a stove inside.

Lan Tingyu immediately rushed forward and knelt down. His body shivered in the cold wind!

The carriage stopped.

Hope looked at Lan Tingyu with a strange expression on his face.

"Why?" In the carriage, Lan Tianji asked indifferently.

Hope whispered from outside the carriage, "Young Master Tingyu, kneel in front."

Lan Tianji froze for a moment, then said, "Drag him away."

"Yes, old master!" Hopper waved his hand and said to the servant, "Send young master Tingyu back!"

The two servants immediately went forward and picked Lan Tingyu up.

"No, no …" "Lan Tingyu let out a loud roar. His voice was still young and tender, but his voice was filled with despair and fear." My mother … "Save my mother, please, old master, I beg of you …"

Lan Tingyu only dared to call out 'old master'. How could he dare to call someone like that 'old man'? How could he be worthy of being the son of such a master?

But, he just wanted this old master to show kindness and save his mother!

Didn't they say that the old master is a capable person?

However, no matter how Lan Tingyu howled or how desperately he begged, Lan Tianji did not speak up.

Lan Xiuxin stood on the spot.

She watched the carriage go. She did not ask her father.

His father had always been indifferent and didn't have much of an expression towards any of his children.

Therefore, she was also afraid of her father.

However, she didn't understand why her father would be so heartless and cold towards Lan Tingyu and his mother.

Even if the mansion's cat or dog was sick, it shouldn't be so cold!

That night, Lili was on her deathbed.

Lan Tingyu stayed close to the bed.

"Yu'er …" Ye Luanfeng was incomparably weak.

"Mother, don't speak anymore. You need to rest more. I went to ask the old master, but he ignored me. Mother, what should I do? "

"Yu'er …" Mother is leaving. I'm sorry, mother shouldn't have given birth to you. Mother should have strangled you when you were born. This way, you won't have to suffer so much. But, Mother loves you, Mother is reluctant to part with it. Promise Mother that you won't hate Mother, okay? "

"Yu'er loves mother the most, and Yu'er will never hate mother!" The little guy said.

Lili continued, "There is a dagger at the head of the bed. This is the only thing that mother can leave you. If one day, you really can't stand it, then you will end up, do not suffer like this again. If in the future, you can grow up, but if you can't stand on your own two feet, don't ever get married and have children. "Don't harm them anymore, promise mother …"1

"Mother, I promise you, I promise you anything!" The little fellow's tears fell like rain.

"If possible, you don't want to be like your father, you have to be a good person. Especially, don't hurt other good people, promise mother …"

"I promise you, mother …"

The next morning, Lan Xiuxin heard that Ye Luanfeng had died last night.

Lan Xiuxin did not dare to go near the cabin, for fear of hearing the young child's despairing cries and seeing his eyes.

The world was cruel. They had never treated this little fellow well.

Lan Xiuxin could only do her best to give the little guy some warmth and help. What she didn't know was that the thick robe had helped Lan Tingyu through the coldest winter.

She didn't know that she would help Lan Tingyu soar into the sky in the future.

What she didn't know was how dazzling Lan Tingyu would be in the future. What methods he would use to kill her mother, Madame Lin, her brothers, and her father.

Karma had long since been buried deep in this despairing winter.

When he looked up in disbelief, the heavens had never spared anyone!

This winter, Lan Tingyu, who was six, grew up overnight …
