Countless memory fragments kept appearing in Ren Cangqiong's mind. These clues gradually converged into one clue, which came out from the depths of distant memory and became very clear again.
Time: Seven days before my grandmother’s seventieth birthday, which is the evening of the eighth day of the lunar month.
Protagonist of the incident: Brother Ren Xinghe.
The course of the incident: Ren Xinghe single-handedly went to the Beigong family, one of the ten largest families in Yunluo City, to steal, and was caught. The Beigong family used this as a threat to force Ren Cangqiong to hand over the third-level Moonlight Medal left by his father.
In his previous life, before the demon clan disaster broke out, Ren Cangqiong had a lot of dissatisfaction with his brother. He felt that Ren Xinghe had always been idle and not doing his job properly. Instead of helping the family solve problems, he instead caused trouble at this juncture. In anger, he coldly rejected the Beigong family's request.
, and said something he regretted for the rest of his life.
At that time, he said: "The third-level Moonlight Medal is the honor left by my father. Ren Xinghe is willing to be a thief and degenerate. Not only is he willing to fall into disgrace, but he also disgraces my father. It is up to you and the Beigong family to deal with it as you please."
These words were undoubtedly tantamount to pronouncing Ren Xinghe's fate.
The Beigong family was completely angered by these words, and they couldn't help but cut off the tendons of Ren Xinghe's right hand. This directly caused Ren Xinghe to become disabled. During the battle of the invasion of the demon clan, Ren Xinghe was bitten by the demon clan because of the inconvenience in his right hand.
In the middle, there is a tendency to demonize, and he kills himself with a knife.
At that time, after Ren Xinghe had his hand tendon broken, he did not complain about Ren Cangqiong. However, the already unharmonious relationship between the two brothers fell even further because of this incident.
It was not until the demon clan invaded five years later that my mother Qiu finally told the truth in desperate situation.
But this truth made Ren Cangqiong regret it until his death.
It turns out that the reason why Ren Xinghe went to the Beigong family to steal was precisely because of the ten purple pearl grasses that Ren Cangqiong failed to cultivate.
It is said that the Beigong family has a "rejuvenating nectar" that may be able to save the fate of purple drop grass.
When Ren Xinghe went there, it was for the "nectar of rejuvenation". His starting point was also to save the Purple Pearl Grass and save their lineage's contribution to the family.
What worried Ren Cangqiong the most was that he learned from his mother that the monthly salary and resources he received from his family were doubled. One part belonged to him, and the other part belonged to Ren Xinghe.
In other words, Ren Cangqiong alone occupied the resources of the two brothers.
And all this, Ren Xinghe never let his mother tell his younger brother.
The reason why Ren Xinghe did this was because his younger brother Ren Cangqiong had the seeds of the Great Dao in his mother's womb. Generally speaking, those who possess the seeds of the Great Dao are geniuses.
Therefore, Ren Xinghe felt that instead of wasting the two brothers' modest resources on the two of them, it would be better to concentrate their advantages and give priority to training his younger brother so that he could carry forward his father's lineage.
In the previous life, all the good intentions that my brother had done were kept in the dark. It wasn't until the monster clan came to the rescue and my brother committed suicide after becoming a demon that my mother cried and told the truth.
But at that moment, it was too late. Ren Cangqiong was filled with regret, but he was unable to turn back!
That was a regret that he would never be able to forgive himself for until his death!
Fortunately, he was reborn.
Now, judging by the time, my brother should have sneaked into Beigong Mansion. It is already too late to stop him from going.
The first turning point in Ren Cangqiong's life after his rebirth was before him. How to avoid tragedy from happening again? Thoughts were racing in Ren Cangqiong's mind.
In the previous life, I owed my brother too much, and it was time to repay the debt in this life!
Ren Cangqiong's expression kept changing, everything was in Qiu's eyes.
Naturally, Qiu didn't understand that at this moment, her second son experienced a violent storm in his heart.
Qiu also had a headache about the relationship between her two sons. As a mother, she saw very clearly all the sacrifices her eldest son Ren Xinghe had made in private.
But Ren Xinghe is not a person who shows favors and repays kindness, and he is not willing to reveal all this in any case.
Ren Xinghe and Qiu knew very well that with Ren Cangqiong's self-esteem, if he knew that he had been receiving favors from his brother, he would definitely refuse to accept all this.
However, if she didn't say it out loud, the unharmonious relationship between the two brothers would always be a worry for her as a mother.
Seeing that Ren Cangqiong's face was not good-looking, she thought that Ren Cangqiong was blaming Ren Xinghe again in her stomach. Qiu's lips moved slightly, wanting to say something, but remembering her eldest son's instructions, she finally sighed and said nothing.
However, Mrs. Qiu could never have imagined that her eldest son Ren Xinghe would have fallen into the hands of the Beigong family.
Ren Cangqiong took in his mother's expression completely. He couldn't help but feel very sad in his heart. The unharmonious relationship between his two brothers must have always been a worry for his mother, right?
In his previous life, he was willful and paranoid. Although he loved his mother deeply, he rarely cared about her feelings.
Now that I have the opportunity to make up for all this, how can I let my mother continue with this heartache?
Therefore, tonight, we must come up with a proper way to avoid this tragedy.
Moonlight Medal?
If he had to give up the Moonlight Medal in exchange, Ren Cangqiong wouldn't begrudge it.
In the previous life, the two brothers had always had misunderstandings due to their different personalities, which made Ren Cangqiong regretful until his death.
In this life, Ren Cangqiong will never let tragedy happen again!
Although the maid Xiaoqi doesn't talk much, she is smart and showy. She always knows that the relationship between the two young masters is not harmonious. Seeing the expressions of the mistress and the young master, she has an idea and breaks the awkward atmosphere: "Master, the medicine is going cold.
, drink it quickly.”
As he spoke, he handed over the medicine bowl.
These words reminded Qiu, and she urged again and again: "Yes, Cang Qiong, drink the medicine first."
Ren Cangqiong nodded, and cooperatively poured the bowl of medicine handed over by Xiao Qi into his mouth. He drank the whole bowl with the bottom of the bowl turned upside down.
This elixir was hard to come by, and the effect was immediate. After taking a bowl of the medicine, Ren Cangqiong's face became rosy, and his thinking became clearer.
He knew that it was not advisable to alarm his mother about his brother for the time being. Otherwise, given the mother's deep love for her son, it might end up causing trouble.
Furthermore, my mother has lived a very miserable life over the past few years. There have been widespread rumors that my father, who was practicing in Tiange, has died, which makes my mother's mood even more gloomy.
If my mother were to find out about what happened to her brother again, I'm afraid she would suddenly become so angry that her body and bones would be hurt.
Seeing Ren Cangqiong finish drinking the medicine, the smile on Qiu's face became thicker. She felt that the second child was really different tonight. Not only was he sensible and enlightened, but he was also much more obedient.
Although it is only a small change in the son, in the eyes of the mother, it will naturally be magnified infinitely.
"Xiao Qi, help the young master go back to his room and rest." Qiu felt that the child had just recovered from the illness and should rest more.
Ren Cangqiong waved his hand and ordered: "Xiao Qi, you stay here and talk to my mother, while I go out alone to get some fresh air."
Xiao Qi is Ren Cangqiong's personal maid. In Xiao Qi's eyes, the young master is the sky, the young master is the earth, and the young master is everything.
Naturally, he obeyed the young master's instructions.
"Okay, Xiaoqi, just stay here and talk to me for a while."
Ren Cangqiong's series of "abnormal" performances today gave Qiu Shi too many surprises. She also really hoped that there would be someone to digest them with.
A well-behaved and smart girl like Xiaoqi is naturally a good choice.
…
In Yunluo City, there are ten major families with the most prominent status.
As one of the top ten families, the Ren family naturally has a top position in Yunluo City.
As for Ren Cangqiong's lineage, because his father Ren Dongliu rose to prominence sixteen years ago, he was selected by the mysterious force Tiange and entered Tiange Yuehua Palace to practice.
As a result, Ren Dongliu was awarded a third-level Moonlight Medal.
Although the third-level Moon Flower Medal is not a high level, in Yunluo City, it is a great honor!
It is precisely for this reason that Ren Cangqiong and his family live in a private mansion in Yunluo City.
However, all this glorious status has become somewhat unstable due to a rumor in the past few years.
Rumor has it that Ren Dongliu disappeared during a trial and his body was not found.
This rumor immediately made Ren Cangqiong's family's position in the family very embarrassing. Various versions of doubts were heard endlessly, and those who would add insult to injury kept popping up like mushrooms after a rain.
As for those who add insult to injury, their goals are actually very clear, that is - the third-level Moonlight Medal.
Sitting on the stone bench in the courtyard, the February spring breeze was blowing on my face, which was somewhat cool. This cool breeze allowed Ren Cangqiong to gradually calm down his overheated brain after his rebirth.
Calculating the time, my brother is in the Beigong family and should have already taken action. Even——
The people sent by the Beigong family should already be on their way.
The arrow is on the string!
How should we deal with it in order to avoid this great tragedy in the previous life and make up for the deep regrets left in the previous life? In fact, there is not much time left for Ren Cangqiong.
