The Eldest Daughter of a Rural Family-Chapter 1238 - 285: Grand Finale, Part 4

Priest He sheepishly clasped his hands together, "Back then, my spiritual cultivation was too shallow, and I misjudged! Misjudged! The young lady at the time was under the decree of Her Majesty! This I guarantee is without a mistake!"

"Still spouting nonsense! He’s nothing but a charlatan!" Pei Qian angrily pointed at him.

Yet Shen Songming came over, grabbed him and pulled him into the room, "Is her soul unstable right now? Is someone causing trouble?" pointing to Pei Qin on the bed.

Upon seeing her, Priest He’s face suddenly changed. He took out three talismans, murmuring something, and placed them on Pei Qin’s forehead and both shoulders. He bit his finger, letting three drops of blood fall on them, then fiercely blew a breath over them.

The three talismans instantly ignited by themselves.

Not long after, Pei Qin opened her eyes and woke up, "Mo Heng, I’m so hungry."

Mo Heng let out a heavy sigh of relief, came forward to hold her up and embraced her tightly, "Qinqin! Qinqin!"

Shen Songming looked at the two embracing each other, pulled at the corner of his mouth, and dragged Priest He out of the room.

Pei Yuan, Pei Qian, and the rest of the group rushed into the room in an uproar.

Turning his head for a glance and sitting in the side hall, Shen Songming asked, "Is someone truly causing trouble?" Pei Qin wasn’t that fragile of a person; even if she really had been deeply asleep, Mo Heng should have been able to awaken her. The way she was, it seemed like she just couldn’t wake up.

Priest He furrowed his brow and stroked his little beard, "It seemed like a detached soul... yet not quite... even I..." He glanced at Shen Songming and quickly changed his tune, "Of course I could tell! However, Madame Pei is in a special situation, but if someone wanted to cause trouble, it’s unlikely they would succeed!"

"Reason?" Shen Songming asked.

Priest He spoke in an artificially profound manner about fate and astrology. Seeing Shen Songming’s face grow darker, he simply said, "Her life star is bright and shining."

In other words, Pei Qin wasn’t going to die easily, at least not so soon.

After Pei Qin got up and had a meal, Shen Songming came over again, "Where did you go?"

"I dreamed about the past, someone was stealing my research results... I also saw my dad and mom, and some old memories, old acquaintances." There seemed to be something else, like she had seen a familiar face, but she just couldn’t recall who it was.

So it wasn’t someone causing trouble; she had just been deeply asleep and saw some past events. Shen Songming breathed a slight sigh of relief, "I thought you were really ready to go back with me!"

Pei Qin was taken aback for a moment and didn’t speak for a while.

Mo Heng tightened his grip on her hand.

Shen Songming looked at them, "If we have ten years, count ten years; if we have twenty, count twenty. It seems we might not be able to go back." He might already be cremated by now. And for Pei Qin, it would be a lab chemical explosion.

He stood up, looked deeply at the two again, "I’m going to see Jiujiu and Xixi!"

"How did elder sister respond?" Pei Wendong saw him come out and quickly approached.

Pei Yuan and Pei Qian were also staring straight at him.

Shen Songming looked at them and shook his head, "Mo Heng should be able to make her agree."

"Even without a sacrifice, the baby can only be preserved for five months, elder sister she..." Pei Yuan covered her mouth.

Everyone fell silent.

Shen Songming took Jiujiu and Xixi out, "Come with godfather to celebrate the Dragon Boat Festival! We’re going to watch the dragon boat race!"

The Capital Jingcheng also had dragon boat races for the Dragon Boat Festival.

Pei Qin lay on the bed, looking up at the canopy.

Mo Heng held her by his side, waiting for her.

Pei Qin took a few breaths, "Mo Heng! I will try to survive!"

Finally making her nod, Mo Heng closed his eyes and held her tight, "Qinqin! I’m sorry! I’m sorry!"

Pei Qin shook her head, "If we have ten years, count ten years; if we have twenty, count twenty. I will try to live!"

"Hmm." Mo Heng finally managed to close his eyes. If there were any sins, let him bear any karma! If the heavens wanted to take her away, he would overturn the heavens themselves!

Peace returned to Tiance Mansion, and for the Dragon Boat Festival, Pei Qin called Pei Yuan, Pei Qian, Pei Wendong, and Xi Yun over to make zongzi together.

Xie Yi came over and, standing outside the courtyard gate, listened to the laughter and joy within and coldly curved her mouth. Pei Qin was still afraid of dying! She had decided to sacrifice the son in her womb in exchange for her own life!

Xi Yun came out and saw her standing outside the courtyard with a sullen face and a sneering smirk.

Upon seeing Xi Yun, Xie Yi’s face immediately changed.

"So you are Xie Yi? You lack even the basic courtesies when facing the Commandery Princess?" Xi Yun approached her.

Xie Yi had imagined countless times the scenario of facing Xi Yun, but now when actually in her presence, she felt so humiliated and angry that she couldn’t help herself, "Commandery Princess? Just a harlot who stole someone’s man!"

Xi Yun’s gaze flickered across her protruding belly and she laughed coldly, stepping forward two paces, "Stand up straight!" Lifting her hand, she slapped her hard, twice.
