Because of Yin Beige's return, the Yin Family's courtyard was bustling with activity for the next few days. There were a lot more people coming in and out of Su Wan's side courtyard. These people were naturally sent by Yao Baiqian to take care of Su Wan. There were maids from the family and doctors who specialized in treating the Yin Family.
Su Wan understood that Yao Baiqian purposely did this for Yin Beige to see.
Su Wan knew Yao Baiqian's methods like the back of her hand. No matter what she sent, she would accept it all.
She was a patient who "couldn't get off the bed" right now. Yao Baiqian wasn't very vigilant towards her either. She was happy to act as the "young mistress who didn't have much time left."
In the blink of an eye, it was December. The weather was getting colder and colder. It was almost the end of the year and the bandits on the mountain outside the city were getting restless again, committing crimes everywhere.
As the successor that Yin Shun nurtured meticulously, Yin Beige naturally had to take the lead every time there was a war.
This time, before leaving, Yin Beige specifically went to Yin Shun's residence and talked about Yin Beichao with his father for the first time.
Yin Shun was surprised by Yin Beige's suggestion to send Yin Beichao overseas. But then he thought about it. His youngest son really wasn't suited to lead troops to war. He might as well send him to learn how to do business. After he comes back and manages the Yin Family's stores, he might not need to rely on his second son's salary anymore.
Everyone said that every family had their own difficulties. Although Yin Shun was a general, there were hundreds of people in the Yin Family. The salary of hundreds of thousands of soldiers in the army was money!
Right now, the world wasn't doing well and the surrounding areas were in constant wars. Apparently, there were some university students in the capital who wanted to reform. In short, General Yin had to prepare for a rainy day.
The conversation between the father and son was harmonious and tacit. In the end, Yin Shun also decided to send Yin Beichao overseas to learn how to do business …
At the end of December, it was going to be New Year. Su Wan's "illness" had finally reached a point where she couldn't be saved.
Right now, her courtyard was filled with Yao Baiqian's people. Shuning had also been asked to come to his residence.
Today, just like what Su Wan knew, it snowed for an entire day. The entire Liao City was covered in silver.
When Yin Beige rushed into the room with a gust of cold wind, Su Wan's gaze was a bit slack.
"Su Wan!"
Yin Beige didn't care about sweeping the snowflakes off his shoulders and body as he charged into the room.
"Second Young Master, Eldest Young Mistress is already … dying!"
"Scram! Get out of here! "
After ordering the servants to leave, Yin Beige trembled as he carried the increasingly thin and weak body. "Don't be afraid, don't be afraid. I'll take you to see a doctor right now. You'll get better, you'll get better. Su Wan, you won't die."
Losing something and losing it right in front of his eyes were two completely different feelings.
At this moment, Yin Beige panicked.
"Beige."
Su Wan's gaze was lax, but her tone was as gentle as before.
How long had it been since she had called his name so gently?
Yin Beige trembled as he gently caressed Su Wan's pale face. "I'm here. I'm here."
"Hehe."
Su Wan smiled faintly. "Beige, I'm going to leave. I can't bear to part with you. But … I need to go accompany Brother Beiyue. He's really … lonely. He's such a gentle person. Although … we're only husband and wife in name, I know. I always knew … that he likes me."
On the night of their wedding, he lifted the veil and saw her for the first time.
He liked her.
That was the so-called love at first sight.
Yin Family's brothers fell in love with the same woman at first sight at different times. Unfortunately, she lived in pain because she wasn't the female lead of this world …
"Big Brother Beiyue told me that when you came back, you would marry me. I've been waiting, waiting, waiting, waiting. Beige … why? You don't believe me, you don't believe him either. Do you know how painful it is for me?"
"No, don't say it!"
Yin Beige's tears fell on Su Wan's face. Drop by drop, the warm tears couldn't warm her cold face anymore.
"I'm so tired, really tired."
Su Wan's voice grew weaker and weaker. Her gaze was about to lose its light. Yin Beige suddenly hugged her tightly in his arms. "Xiao Wan, don't leave me. Please don't leave me. I love you, I love you!"
"Love …"
Su Wan slowly opened her mouth and slowly took out an exquisite sachet from her arms. "Beige, this … this is my hair … can you take it with you? That way … I can always, always be with you. No matter what happens, wherever you are, I'll be … there. I'll never … leave you. "
Never leave you.
Yin Beige held the sachet in his hands, his voice choking. "Okay! I promise you. I'll promise you anything! "
"Then … that's good. I … I have one last wish … After I die, bury me next to Beiyue. Let me be with him. This … I owe … him …"
Before she could finish, Su Wan had already stopped breathing in Yin Beige's arms …
"Xiao Wan! Xiao Wan! "
This night, it was snowing heavily. Yin Beige's eyes were red as he hugged Su Wan's body that was gradually turning cold. He didn't close his eyes the entire night.
The second day, Yao Baiqian ordered her adjutant, Lu Anbo, to forcefully knock Yin Beige out and take him away. As for Su Wan's body, she was naturally sealed in a coffin, planning on choosing a day to bury her.
In the Yin Family, women didn't have a high status. Plus, Su Wan was Yin Beiyue's widow.
Her mourning hall was cold and cheerless. In the silent night, Yin Beichao was the only one wearing mourning clothes and wearing a white cloth, kneeling in front of the coffin.
Late at night, the north wind whistled. The paper money in the brazier in front of the mourning hall had already burned to ashes.
Soft footsteps could be heard behind him.
"I told you guys not to come anymore! I won't leave! "
Yin Beichao's voice was hoarse but the young man's tone was really firm.
"Why?"
A cold male voice rang behind him.
Yin Beichao froze. He turned to see Yin Mingye wearing a black cloak standing behind him.
"Third uncle, why are you here?"
"I'm here to see her."
Su Rui glanced at the coffin in the middle of the mourning hall. It was almost time. He had to take Su Wan's "corpse" away.
But what surprised Su Rui was that there was someone keeping vigil for Su Wan at this time.
Just in case, Su Rui specially went to Yin Beige's room before nightfall and pressed his sleeping acupuncture point, ensuring that he wouldn't wake up tonight.
Hearing Su Rui's words, Yin Beichao glanced at him strangely. Then he kowtowed to Su Rui. "Third uncle, you're too kind!"
"You, this is …"
Yin Beichao's actions surprised Su Rui. What's going on with this kid?
"I promised sister-in-law that I would take care of her when she's old. Now … she's gone. I have to wear mourning clothes for her. Sister-in-law doesn't have any children so I'll be her son."
Hearing Yin Beichao's words, Su Rui lifted his brows and smiled. He slowly walked to the coffin. "You're right. Beichao, you're so filial. Your sister-in-law will be really happy if she finds out!"
Bang.
Saying this, Su Rui gently patted the coffin and then pushed open the lid. Under Yin Beichao's flabbergasted gaze, he carried Su Wan out of the coffin and wrapped her in a black cloak.
"Third uncle, you …"
"Shh."
