The generals guarding the Qiu family focused on the tiptoeing and looking around.

Tonight, the wind and snow were heavy. The sky was like a dark curtain, and the stars could not be seen. Only a thin bow of the moon was faintly discernible. In the pitch-black night, one could not see their fingers. Qiu’s father shivered from the cold when he went out. He tightened his collar and looked around warily. He pretended to go to the toilet in the backyard first, and after making sure that there was no one else, he climbed over the wall of the sheep pen.

He thought he wouldn’t be discovered if he didn’t go through the front door, but he didn’t know that ambushes were around his house and that his every move was being monitored.

No one disturbed Father Qiu and watched him stagger forward in the dark.

Father Qiu staggered in the wind. He grabbed his collar and leaned forward, trying to move forward in the wind and snow.

Xiao Zeyu stood in the alley and looked at Father Qiu with a pained expression. He had given him a chance. Today, if he said something he regretted, Xiao Zeyu had decided to let him go.

However, he didn’t cherish this opportunity and stubbornly wanted to harm Qing’er. Xiao Zeyu’s eyes flashed with determination. Since you don’t love this opportunity, please don’t blame me for being heartless.

First Father Qiu walked with difficulty to the backyard of the Old Tofu Mill. The whistling north wind was like a baby’s cry. No matter how he looked at it tonight, he felt a pair of eyes staring at him.

He was panicking and afraid, but he gritted his teeth when he thought of his son. A coward could not achieve great things. Success or failure depended on this move.

Father Qiu walked to the place where the information was kept. He was so tired that he was panting. He held onto the tree trunk and looked around. After ensuring no one had discovered him, he removed a small bamboo tube from his pocket and placed it in the designated position.

After he was done, his eyes flashed with excitement. It was as if he had already seen Su Qing’s head and body. He had avenged his daughter.

After doing all this, he wanted to go back without anyone noticing. As soon as he turned around, torches lit up around him. First Father Qiu was so frightened that he cried and subconsciously covered his face with his hands.

Xiao Zeyu walked over with a dark expression. His low, cold voice was even colder than the howling north wind, “Uncle Qiu, what are you doing here?”

“I… I’m going to the toilet.”

Uncle Qiu was trembling in fear. It was difficult for him to lie, but no one would believe it.

Xiao Zeyu ignored Uncle Qiu’s lies. Under Uncle Qiu’s fearful gaze, he removed a bamboo tube from the tree hole. Xiao Zeyu looked at Uncle Qiu, his eyes gradually turning cold. He waved his hand at the general behind him,

“Guards, grab him!”

“Shuisheng, Shuisheng, please spare Uncle Qiu!”

Seeing things had gone south, Father Qiu’s legs went weak, and he knelt in front of Xiao Zeyu, crying like a child.

“Take him away.”

Xiao Zeyu forced himself to harden his heart. He had already given Uncle Qiu a chance but didn’t cherish it.

“Shuisheng, Shuisheng, spare me…”

The sound of the wind drowned out Uncle Qiu’s voice. Xiao Zeyu poured out the secret letter from the bamboo tube and closed his eyes when he saw the contents. A layer of ice covered his dark eyes when he opened his eyes again.

The secret letter wrote, “Su Qing is at Zhong Yong’s house.” The location was drawn out. This was to kill Qing’er.

He and Qiu Yongkang had finally become enemies!

Qiu family

Old Master Qiu’s right eyelid had been twitching since his son left. In his trance, he could even hear the cawing of crows. This filled his heart with fear and made him extremely nervous.

He calculated that his son should be back by now. Why hadn’t he heard the door open yet?

Old Master Qiu wanted to call his daughter-in-law, but he felt that calling her in the middle of the night would make him look disrespectful. After holding it in for a while, he couldn’t help but put on his clothes and go out to look for his son.

Ever since Yongkang escaped, Old Master Qiu, who was worried about his grandson’s health, was deteriorating day by day. He was even weaker after the shock today.

He finally put on his clothes and shoes and walked out with his walking stick. The cold wind was blowing outside. He finally pushed the door open with difficulty. The north wind blew, and snow covered his face. Old Master Qiu was about to step out when he was blown by the wind and staggered. He lost his balance and fell to the ground.

This fall was not light. The back of his head hit the ground heavily, and he passed away without even making a sound.

Auntie Qiu was also worried about her husband. She leaned against the window and paid attention to the movements outside. Suddenly, she heard the sound of a heavy object falling. She was so scared that she shouted outside the door, “Who is it? First…First Father, are you back?”

After waiting for a long time without receiving any response, Auntie Qiu lit the oil lamp and held it up to go out to take a look.

The outer room was pitch black, and the dim light of the oil lamp could only illuminate an inch or so. Aunt Qiu held the lamp as she walked towards her father-in-law’s room. Suddenly, she tripped and fell forward. The oil lamp also fell to the ground and broke into pieces. The oil scattered all over the ground and caught fire.

“All, save me! Save me!”

Auntie Qiu saw the flames suddenly rise and shouted for help. She also saw her father-in-law lying on the ground with the help of the fire. The oil was scattered on his clothes, and the fire quickly spread through his body. Auntie Qiu was so scared that she lost five of her seven souls. Her clothes were also on fire. To save herself she did not have time to save her father-in-law. She rolled and crawled out of the house. She screamed in pain from the fire and moved back and forth in the snow.

Fortunately, it was snowy outside. She rolled back and forth to put out the fire on her body. Even so, her fever was not light. Her hair was burnt, and her arms were severely charred.

The father and son of the Li family next door heard Aunt Qiu’s cry for help. They put on their clothes and ran out. When they saw the thick smoke coming out of the Qiu family’s house, the father and son did not care about their safety and went to put out the fire with shovels.

It was too late to carry the water, so they rubbed the snow and threw it on the fire. The neighbors heard the cry for help and rushed over to help. Finally, with everyone’s efforts, the fire was put out.

“My father-in-law is inside.”

Auntie Qiu shouted at the crowd. The burn wounds on her body were so painful that she burrowed into the snow.

When everyone heard that Old Master Qiu was still in the house, they rushed into the house to save him. Ultimately, they were still a step too late, and Old Master Qiu was burned alive.

Xiao Zeyu rushed over after hearing the news. When he saw Old Master Qiu’s charred body, he frowned and felt mixed emotions.

Perhaps this was the best ending for the old master. He did not have to watch his family fall or die one by one in front of him.

“It hurts, it hurts so much.”

Auntie Qiu was helped up from the snow by everyone. The severe pain of the burns made Auntie Qiu shout. Even though it was so painful that she was heartbroken, she still searched for her husband in the crowd.

A good home burned down? Her father-in-law had been burned to death. Aunt Qiu could not help but think of the word retribution, and she became increasingly afraid.

Seeing Xiao Zeyu in the crowd, Auntie Qiu asked Auntie Li to help her over. Was it too late for her to salvage the situation now? Would Shuisheng forgive their family for what they had done?

Xiao Zeyu looked at Auntie Qiu with an expressionless face. The hands behind his back were clenched into fists.

Auntie Qiu felt his cold gaze and was so scared that she dared not look him in the eye. The immense psychological pressure was too much for her, and she fainted.

The Qiu family was destroyed, and everyone present sympathized with them. Everyone wondered where First Father Qiu went after such a significant incident.. Why hadn’t they seen him?
