The Eldest Daughter of a Rural Family-Chapter 1235 - 285: Grand Finale Part One

A moment ago, she had been thanking the heavens for their favor, allowing her to cure the chill poison and conceive a child. Although she and Mo Heng didn’t mind, having two precious daughters was already enough for them. But if she could bear this child, and it was a son, those troublemakers outside would cease to exist.

But in the next moment, she was told that her life would not be long, that the painstaking care she took of her heart, the medicines she drank three times a day, the medicinal baths she soaked in daily, the restrained yet frequent conjugal relations, had led to conception, only to be a sacrifice, to exchange her life for the absorption of the toxins in her body!

Pei Qin’s mind raced through various thoughts, then went blank.

Collapse? Pei Qin never knew what it felt like to collapse. Her life could be said to have been smooth sailing! Her father had power, she had ability, and she lived her life willfully and boldly. Even after transmigrating, with several small burdens and occasional constraints, she had weapons, she had Mo Heng, she had Shen Songming; she held power and stood at the top of the tower, all the surges would return to calm. She didn’t even take Xie Yi’s petty schemes to heart enough to hate and crush her in retaliation. fгeewёbnoѵel.cσm

Pei Qin released her hand and looked up at the sky.

The sun had come out after the rain, the sunset heavily layered, painted in red light, like the tragic color of blood.

She turned around silently and walked toward the house.

Jun Suxue didn’t dare to follow, didn’t even dare to call her. She covered her mouth and wept silently.

Xie Yi continued to shout from behind, "Aren’t you the one who values loyalty and righteousness, with the honor that reaches the clouds? Aren’t you the most pretentiously virtuous?! Let everyone see, let those deceived commoners see, how afraid you are of death! Sacrificing your own son just to cling to life! You demon! You do evil, thinking no one can deal with you? You defy the natural order, change fate against the heavens, even the heavens won’t spare you!"

Lu Hai coldly commanded, "Take her away!"

Qing Ju intended to seal Xie Yi’s acupoints and interrogate her for more information, grabbed her, and dragged her out.

Xie Yi, like a madwoman, cursed Pei Qin for a long time to no useful end; she was just a little soldier sacrificed by others, clueless about other matters. It was Wei Shu, using her, who revealed to her the matter of Mo Heng sacrificing a pawn to save his wife.

Qing Ju struck Xie Yi unconscious with a palm, and threw her on the bed, standing by and watching over her.

Huang Qiu ran to the Manufacturing Bureau in one breath, "Marquis... Marquis..."

The Gatekeeper recognized her and immediately reported her arrival.

Mo Heng came out urgently, "What’s happened?"

Tears welled up in Huang Qiu’s eyes, "Madam... Xie Yi said that Madam’s pregnancy is for... Madam... she..."

Mo Heng’s face suddenly changed, and he grabbed a horse, galloping and flying back home.

The guards were also frightened and changed their expressions, "What’s happened to General Pei? She’s just become pregnant!"

Huang Qiu dared not speak, wiped away tears, "Xie Yi had an incident when she went out of the city to offer incense, holding a grudge and seeking to harm Madam!" After saying this, she hurried back home.

Feng Wei and a few others followed behind but couldn’t catch up to Mo Heng.

Wei Shu sat in the teahouse, watching him rushing back home in a frenzy, full of sweat, feeling as if her heart was being gouged out with a knife.

Mo Heng had never felt such panic before, even when he originally found out she didn’t have many years to live, he thought of using every means to preserve her! Sacrificing a pawn to save his wife was the most conservative and safest method he could think of. But with her temperament, once she knew, she would never agree.

So he kept everything entirely to himself, wanting to treat her as before, loving her even more than previously, just wanting to exchange it for her life! To keep her by his side, just a little longer!

Mo Heng couldn’t imagine what she would do if she knew the truth. The only thought in his heart was that he was going to lose her!

He galloped home as fast as he could, entering with some trepidation.

Jun Suxue and Xue Dong and a few others were waiting outside in the corridor.

Jiujiu clenched her fists tightly, her eyes bloodshot as she stood at the doorway. When she saw him returning, tears instantly overflowed.

Mo Heng touched her head and stepped inside the house.

It was already evening, and the light inside the house had dimmed, without lamps lit.

Mo Heng immediately saw Pei Qin sitting there staring blankly like a lost soul, and his heart clenched tightly, tearing at him, "Qinqin?"

Pei Qin came back to her senses in a daze, looking at him, her gaze as distant as if from another life.

A sense of panic rose in Mo Heng’s heart, and he grasped her hand, "Qinqin! We can have more children! We will have them again! Your body hasn’t recovered well, a child conceived at this time can only be kept for five months! We are not sacrificing the child for your life! Qinqin..."

Pei Qin saw his panic-stricken appearance, her eyes gradually focusing while staring at him, all the way into the depths of his eyes, "What else is there?" What else was being kept from her?
