The man just shook his head and didn't say a word.

This kind of action caused First Madam to become even more agitated, "Don't you think that you can do it just because you said so? Men, give her some pain, I don't believe that this Wei Mansion has no family rules! "

When she heard that she needed help from the family, the woman suddenly rushed to First Madam's feet, her hands constantly gesturing at something.

When Fei Yan saw her enthusiasm, a bright light flashed past her eyes. The woman could not speak, was she the scapegoat or the one who was viciously bullied by his descendants?

Seeing the lady coming over, First Madam's face turned green, but what was admirable was that First Madam's expression did not change, as all of the maidservant's took a few steps back, and only he remained unmoving.

"Men! Drag him down and beat him to death!" Seeing that he could not get anything out of them, First Madam glanced at everyone and instructed them.

The moment he heard that he was going to lose his life, that person became even more excited. He kowtowed continuously, and in a short period of time, that clump of blood on the snowy ground became so glaring that his mouth started making wuwu sounds.

Fei Yan could see the frown on First Madam's face, but she guessed that she mistaken it for sobs.

Just as the two soldiers were about to pull the lady down, the lady used her hand to wipe off the blood on her head and quickly wrote the word wrongly on the snow. When she looked at Second Madam, First Madam followed her gaze and landed on her face.

But she only saw Second Madam's calm face, as if everything had nothing to do with her and she was just a spectator.

"Bam!" The woman had somehow managed to break free of the soldier's restraints and hit a tree nearby. In an instant, the air was filled with the scent of blood.

All the people who took in a deep breath glanced boldly at it from time to time, but they still felt that it was a little too horrible to look at.

Some of the timid ones dared not to look, and some of the ladies' faces were pale with fright.

"Alright, take the corpse to the mountain and feed it to the dogs. Everyone else, listen carefully, the Wei Mansion's family rules are set up here, do not think that you can challenge it, this will be your end, if anyone is not afraid of the snake being illusory and wanting to touch it, then the end will be even worse than hers. She just committed suicide out of guilt."

's mouth revealed a taunting smile. The word 'wronged' was still there clearly, it was consistent with the words of the First Madam that resounded through the courtyard.

"Yes sir!" As all the maidservant kneeled, such chilliness spread throughout their entire bodies, more clearly telling everyone their own choice.

"All of you can leave now. This matter shall come to an end. Everyone shall start preparing for the new year. Do not be tainted by bad luck from such a filthy thing. Master will be back very soon."

Hearing First Madam's words, those people all ran away as if they were escaping.

"If a person doesn't die, they can wash away some of their sins and escape from today. They might not be able to hide away past tomorrow, and they will have to pay back the debts they owe."

First Madam said to the back of the Second Madam as she left.

Second Madam's feet paused for a moment, but she did not turn back as she continued to walk forward.

Everyone thought that it was Second Madam who did this, even the First Madam had believed that. Just now, it was true that the mute's gaze was directed towards Second Madam, but Fei Yan had clearly seen from her line of sight, that the person who looked at the back of the Second Madam, was the person who made Xiao Cui and her move to the First Madam's courtyard for the first time, and thus that person was the key.

However, before she could investigate this matter, she had to do something first.

"Hey, Fei Yan, why are you here?" Xiao Cui felt that Fei Yan's appearance was a little strange, to the point that she was baffled.

Fei Yan thought that this girl was curious about her temper coming to this kind of place, so she laughed: "I am not curious who is so bold, after all, I did not sleep well for a few nights at that time!"

"You didn't sleep well either. Me too, I'm so sleepy!" Xiao Cui expressed her agreement with Fei Yan's explanation, or maybe she trusted Fei Yan.

On the way back to her residence, Fei Yan separated from Xiao Cui using the excuse that she wanted to see the Aunt Niu.

The chilly wind was blowing. The atmosphere had always been gloomy in the winter, but as cold wind was blowing everywhere, the mountain looked even more desolate.

If it wasn't for her unintentionally glancing at the ground just now, how would she have discovered that the finger was still moving? Otherwise, she wouldn't have discovered that the mute crashed into the tree and didn't die.

As they continued to move forward, Fei Yan started to suspect if that person had not been dragged to the back of the mountain, or had been eaten by a tiger.

Thinking about it, Fei Yan was shocked, if she were to brazenly come up, wouldn't that be courting death?

Suddenly, a palm wind struck over, Fei Yan dodged instinctively and avoided it.

"You reacted quickly!" A woman's voice came from behind.

"Aunt Meng, you aren't here to test my reaction!" Although Fei Yan was a little shocked that the Aunt Meng had appeared here and was even more surprised about her martial arts, she had suppressed all of her expressions the moment she turned around.

"This girl, when did she speak so disrespectfully?!" Maybe it was because of what happened previously that Aunt Meng experienced Fei Yan's personality, so she did not have to be patient.

"Aunt Meng, you came before me!" Fei Yan did not want to follow them around. Since she had come, then how could she return empty-handed? Even if she did not want them, he wanted an answer.

"Ah, Fei Yan, sometimes being too smart isn't a good thing!" Aunt Meng sighed and turned to walk in a direction.

Fei Yan wisely followed him.

The Aunt Meng skillfully brought Fei Yan into a cave. Originally, Fei Yan thought that it would be pitch-black inside the cave, but she never thought that there would be another cave behind it.

"Hey, that's the person you're looking for!" Aunt Meng pointed at the man lying on the ground, his eyes filled with regret.

"Let's see if I can save him!"

As Fei Yan got closer, she realized that the lady's Qi was getting weaker and weaker, "Let me try!"

With regards to the movements of Fei Yan's hands, the controls and the herbs she had found, the Aunt Meng was surprised. This speed, it was actually the first time she had seen such a technique.

"Don't look at me with that kind of eyes, you still need to look after this person!" Fei Yan finished her work and prepared to leave.

Aunt Meng did not answer, she only stared at Fei Yan as if she wanted to see through her. Only after a long while did she open her mouth, carrying a kind of vicissitudes and heartache, "This girl is pitiful, I will take care of her, but if you want to leave, then as soon as possible, if you don't want to leave, you must learn to bear it!"

Fei Yan did not stop, but Aunt Meng's words were heard by her word for word. But if she had been smarter, or if she didn't care, then maybe she wouldn't have had to bear so much later, but if she had given up, if she had avoided it, then it wouldn't have been her, and there were many things that couldn't be defined by 'ifs'.

When Fei Yan returned to her residence, the atmosphere became strange and tense. She could understand how the scene in the courtyard of the First Madam had dealt a blow to everyone's minds.

Fei Yan also thought that this matter would have an impact on the dinner arranged by the First Madam, but after a storm, this matter came to an end. Who was the mute girl, and the answer to this question was finally found on a concubine that had long been pampered.

At the very least, she couldn't give herself the answer she wanted right now. Whether it was the Second Madam or the self-development of the First Madam, it had already become a matter of life and death, who would be willing to mention that?

"Fei Yan, why aren't you coming over to make tea?"

Today was the day Fei Yan would be on duty. It was also the day when all the ladies would gather together for dinner, and since everyone had matters to attend to, it meant that Fei Yan felt that she had been slightly idle, hence the First Madam instructed her to prepare some good tea for him.

"Madam, it's best not to drink this before the meal!" Although Fei Yan didn't want to show it to others, it was still possible to show it to them as long as it was necessary.

"Oh? This is the first time I've heard something like this! " Unexpectedly, the one who spoke up was Second Madam, and today, he looked much better.

"Fei Yan also heard it by chance from an elder, senior once mentioned that this tea should be good, drinking it for an hour after the meal would be good for the stomach!" Fei Yan bowed and replied respectfully.

"Sisters and sisters, we have to be careful in the future!" Second Madam laughed, looked at Fei Yan, and said very seriously.

Everyone nodded in a harmonious manner, smiling and agreeing. On the surface, it seemed so harmless, but everyone knew that this was only on the surface. Or perhaps this was called the calm before the storm.

This meal was just everyone's smile on the surface, then they would flatter each other, and the people who looked the most intimate inside were actually First Madam and Second Madam. Fei Yan found this somewhat unbelievable, and after all, the Second Madam in her eyes wasn't such a person.

"Sisters, you should eat more. It's rare for us to be together so leisurely!" First Madam smiled and greeted everyone.

"Sister, you have to eat too!"

"Yeah, sister, you have to eat too!" Everyone seemed to be well-received with First Madam's greetings as they happily complied. Sometimes, even some of the dishes were placed between each other, making the scene very warm and friendly.

"First Madam, not good!"

However, this peace was not maintained for long. Soon, a voice broke the silence.

First Madam's face immediately changed. It was obvious that anyone would be unhappy if their meal was interrupted, "What's wrong with me?" A stern voice directly reported that the person's legs had gone soft.

"To return to the First Madam, no, it's not good!" That person was already incoherent.

"What is it? "Say it clearly!" Although First Madam was very angry, but with her identity as the Patriarch and the fact that it was useless to rush this matter, she could still be considered to have calmed down.

"Yes, someone hung himself. His tongue stretched out very long!" When that person said up to here, his entire body was trembling.

A lady, as if thinking of the man's long tongue, vomited for a moment.

However, the meal was interrupted by this matter.

Hearing that, First Madam could no longer stay, but this time, Fei Yan saw the helplessness in Second Madam's eyes.

Fei Yan followed First Madam to the place where the servant girl was hung.

When they saw the dead person, everyone was shocked, except Fei Yan. However, she was not an idiot, in order to not let others see through her, she pretended to be trembling in fear, and intentionally or unintentionally looked at the corpse. The only emotion she had was surprise, yes surprise.
