C50

After a long trek through the mountain ridges of the treasury, Qing Qing and I finally arrived at the entrance of the village. Standing by the familiar river, Qing Qing whispered, "I've finally returned home. I'll change back to my usual yellow appearance in a while. Let's head home quickly."

I reached out to pull Qing Qing into my embrace as I looked at her lovingly. "There's no need for that. You don't need to become Little Yellow anymore. I plan to introduce you to my parents."

"Huh?" Qing Qing was very surprised. Then, her face reddened as she asked, "Then what will be your name?"

"My wife." I laughed and replied, "I was just joking. I knew that you were a good friend that I had made."

Qing Qing nodded in agreement.

After returning home, it was already around 6 PM. I brought Qing Qing directly into the house. When I saw that my parents were finishing their meal, I shouted happily, "Father, mother, and son are back!"

When my parents saw me, they were extremely happy. They threw away their chopsticks and wanted to hug me, but when they saw Qing Qing standing beside me, they simultaneously asked in puzzlement, "Little Tian, who is this lady?"

"My wife, is she pretty?" "Aiya." Qing Qing pinched me.

His parents were both experienced people, and after seeing this, they immediately understood what was going on and stopped asking. Instead, they called Qing Qing and I over for dinner. During the meal, his mother kept holding onto Qing Qing's hand, asking questions about their family, just like a pair of daughter-in-law.

My father and I smiled knowingly at both of them. My father even gave me a thumbs-up, implying that this girl was not bad.

Looking at the whole family's happiness, let me tired heart immediately much better, thinking, the feeling of going home is really good.

When I was about to pull Qing Qing back to rest, my mother suddenly called me over. She glanced at Qing Qing and whispered to me, "Little Tian, accompany your father and sit for a while. I'll clean up another room for Qing Qing."

"There is no need to be so troublesome …" When I saw the look in my parents' eyes, I could only spread out my hands and say, "Sure, you guys can do as you like."

As they walked, she said, "Little Tian has been playful since he was young. If he dares to bully you, come and tell me, see how I'll take care of him."

"I won't, Little Tian won't bully me."

Hearing the conversation between my mother and Qing Qing, I was completely speechless. I sat down opposite my father.

After my father saw Qing Qing had left, he leaned down and whispered to me, "Qing Qing is a good girl, you can't act recklessly. You are not allowed to live together until the wedding day."

Was there even a need to be reminded by my parents? Qingqing and I had slept in the same room for so many days, and nothing had happened between the two of us.

Seeing that I had agreed, my father changed the topic and said, "That's right, in the few days since you left, your second elder sister came to find you. She told you to come back as soon as possible. I think it's quite urgent."

"Ah, what happened at second sister's house again?"

"I asked, but your second sister didn't say anything. She just told you to come back and find her immediately." His father took a sip of tea as he spoke.

"Sure, if I have nothing else to do tomorrow, I'll go and find second sister." I stood up and stretched my body before waving my hands at my father. "I'm so tired. I'll go back and rest first. If there's anything, we can talk about it tomorrow."

The next day, just as I was sleeping soundly, I heard a familiar voice call out to me, "Little Tian, hurry up and come down to eat. Qing Qing even woke up earlier than you."

"Got it."

The feeling of returning home was indeed very good, but I didn't have the chance to sleep in. I put on my clothes and lazily walked out. I saw Qing Qing sitting by my mother's side, chatting and laughing with her.

"Ah, Qing Qing, you are so beautiful today."

Qing Qing lowered her head and smiled. "It was aunty who helped me clean it up."

Qing Qing was wearing a light green outfit today with some simple flowers and plants, making her look very pure. The ponytail made her look even more mischievous and adorable.

I was stunned. My mother intentionally knocked on the table, making me feel really awkward. I chuckled and said, "I don't want to eat breakfast. I'm heading over to second sister's house. Qing Qing, are you going over?"

"Sure." Qing Qing stood up and walked over to me.

His mother pointed to the table full of dishes and said, "Why are you in such a hurry to go to your second sister's house? You can go after breakfast."

"No, we'll eat at second sister's place." I grabbed Qingqing and ran out of the house.

At this moment, Qingqing opened her mouth and asked, "Going to second sister's house, what happened?"

"I don't know either." I shook my head. "Hearing second sister's tone, I'm afraid that she has met with some trouble that isn't easy to resolve. Qing Qing, let's hurry up and leave. Don't blame second sister for encountering some danger."

Was it my former senior brother Yutang again? However, it was impossible for him to think about it. Given his current situation, there shouldn't be any reason for him to use second brother-in-law. No, it shouldn't be because of Yutang.

We quickly arrived at second sister's house. When second sister saw Qing Qing and I, she didn't have the time to ask Qing Qing who she was. She directly pulled us into the house and narrated everything in detail.

However, the trouble this time was a little strange. Second Brother-in-law was working at a construction site, and when he was digging the foundation, he found a sarcophagus. At that time, no one understood this aspect, so the sarcophagus was forced open.

According to the second brother in law, the moment the sarcophagus was opened, the sky was suddenly filled with dark clouds. The surrounding was also filled with wild winds and sand, and when everyone saw the sarcophagus clearly, they were so surprised that their mouths could not close.

There were no corpses in the sarcophagus. There were only neat piles of clothes, similar to the red dress worn by the bride of ancient times.

The people on the construction site thought that there was some treasure hidden inside the sarcophagus and started to rummage inside. In the end, besides the bright red clothes, they didn't find anything else that accompanied the burial.

Amongst them, there was a laborer called Wang Shi Shi who was the happiest and finally got the most disappointment. In a fit of anger, he used the hammer he brought with him to smash the sarcophagus to pieces and set the red clothes on fire.

He was also curious. Previously, when so many people had rummaged through the corpses' belongings, they came up empty-handed. However, after burning away the big red clothes, they unexpectedly took out a palm-sized jade pendant from inside.

After hearing so much, I didn't hear anything about Second Brother-in-law. I couldn't help but ask, "At that time, what was Second Brother-in-law doing? It couldn't have been that he went to rummage through the sarcophagus with me, right?"

"He wasn't blindly jeering along, he was just standing by the side and watching."

"That's good." I breathed in a sigh of relief, but after thinking about it, I felt that something was wrong. If nothing had happened to second brother-in-law, then there was no need for second sister to call me over.
