There is a candlestick burning on the desk. The wick of the candle is getting longer and longer, and the light is getting darker and darker, but the owner of the desk is not aware of it yet.
A long sigh made the candlelight grow a little darker.
A jade hand picked up the scissors and cut the candle wick short with a click, making the room brighter instantly.
"Ms. sir, what are you worried about? Can Dan Niang help you share your worries?"
"I..." The man sighed again.
Dan Niang took out the letter from the man's hand and read it word by word.
"It turns out that my mother-in-law is seriously ill. No wonder you have been looking so sad recently."
"Mom is fine after being ill, but I... I'm afraid I have to go down the mountain."
Dan Niang lowered her head and was silent for a moment, then said softly: "I really want to go down the mountain to see my mother-in-law."
"Madam, can I... go down the mountain?" the man asked her cautiously.
Dan Niang smiled and said: "Filial piety comes first among all good deeds. Dan Niang should be happy that my husband can go down the mountain to see my mother-in-law. Then when are you going to go down the mountain?"
There was a bit of disappointment in the man's eyes, and then he said: "It's just tomorrow. I'll leave early and come back early."
"Okay, I'll pack my luggage for my husband."
The man looked at Dan Niang's back and couldn't help but sigh again.
He wanted Dan Niang to go down the mountain with him to visit her, but he couldn't say anything.
Outside the Bai Mansion, Dan Niang and Mr. Bai sent the man away, followed by the servants in the Bai Mansion.
The man reluctantly turned his head three times, and gradually the shadow of Dan Niang became farther and farther away.

When Yan Yan heard that Luofeng Villa was the Yan family's villa, he should have thought that the villa would not be very close to the Yan family.
If it's not too long ago, everyone would go to live in Yanfu, so who would come to the villa?
They walked for two days and finally arrived at the foot of Luofeng Mountain. They thought that Yan Hexing would send them to someone else and leave.
Unexpectedly, he just received a letter from his parents, in which he was asked to take Yanjie to their home as a guest.
"Being a guest? No need." Yan Yan decisively refused.
Yan Hexing was embarrassed and said: "But dad said that there is something very important to tell you."
Before Yan Yan could refute again, he quickly added, "It has something to do with the Yan family, and it has something to do with you."
Yan Yan took back his rebuttal, "Okay, I guess you can do it."
He really knew how to handle her, and he was a member of the Yan family.
When I saw Qingyu again, he was much calmer than before, but he still looked like a young man.
When he sees Yan Yan, he will still pounce on him.
"Ah Yao, I haven't seen you in three years!" Qingyu held Yan Yao in her arms and couldn't help but secretly wipe her tears.
A man of dignity, I cried so much that I felt aggrieved.
"Oh, Xiao Yuyu, I miss you so much."
There used to be a threesome, but now it's just her and Qingyu.
The two of them pretended to wipe away their tears. Qingyu wanted to ask her about Shen Beizhu, but when Bai Zhu winked, she swallowed her words.
"How did you get abducted?" Yan Yan asked speechlessly, "You are still the junior uncle of Qingyun Mountain, how can you be abducted so easily?"
"Abducted?" Qingyu wondered, "Abducted by whom?"
"Weren't you kidnapped by the Yan family?"
Qingyu shook her head.
Half a month ago, Qingyu received a letter and a bunch of keys, asking him to come to Luofeng Villa, saying that something strange happened at home.
He had been traveling around mountains and rivers, exorcising spirits and catching ghosts, and he came here after receiving this letter.
But when he arrived at the villa, there was no one in the villa, but there was indeed an unusual atmosphere here, so he temporarily stayed in the villa.
Not long ago, Ling Yang came and received the same letter as him.
The only difference was that the letter to Ling Yang included the sentence "food and lodging included", otherwise he would not have come all the way to Luofeng Villa.
After Qingyu and Lingyang finished speaking, they saw Yan Yan squatting in the corner, his aura becoming gloomier.
Qingyu asked: "Ah, what is this?"
Bai Zhu said calmly, "It's probably a curse."
There is food and drink at Luofeng Villa, but you have to do it yourself. Now Yan Hexing has followed, and the chef behind him has also arrived.
Seeing that there was still a lot of chicken, duck, goose, fish, melons, fruits and vegetables left in the villa, they planned to ask the chef to cook a meal for them before leaving.
After Yan Yan had eaten and drank enough, he sat on the rocking chair and basked in the sun leisurely, stroking his belly.
"Tell me, what is the purpose of the Yan family? Is it really just for me to add a family tree?" Yan Yan yawned and asked.
Bai Zhu pondered for a moment, "The family tree... you have added to the family tree, and you have to be counted for the sins committed by the Yan family."
Yan Yan sat up from the rocking chair and said angrily, "So you want me to be the scapegoat?!"
