  "How can there be a bloody smell?"

  The soft whisper of Feng Mei Xue's voice, as gentle as a feather, changed the cold and cheerless expression on the bed. Thinking of her hastily hiding the blood-stained handkerchief under the pillow, his heart was in turmoil.

  If I were to let my daughter see that handkerchief, I'd have to worry even more!

  Just as she reached out to put the handkerchief away, Feng Xue had already taken a step ahead and picked up the brand new pillow behind her, slamming it directly onto the ground.

  He picked up the silver hairpin placed on one side of the food box and swept it towards the pillow, where a cluster of black leeches were sucking blood, their bodies swollen into blood sacs, each as big as an adult's thumb, looking ferocious and terrifying.

  "What is this?"

  Suddenly saw a leech in the pillow, and was so frightened that his soul left his body. His already pale face turned even more sallow.

  "Blood-sucking leech!"

  Feng Mei Xue's voice was like a cold wind blowing through the gaps between her teeth, carrying an icy chill that made people shiver involuntarily.

  These leeches are not many in number and should not be enough to make Mother's body like this.

  Her gaze shifted from the leeches on the ground to the brand new brocade quilt. She quickly stepped forward, nimbly pulled off the brocade quilt from the bed and replaced it with a thin blanket to cover Qinghuan.

  A silver hairpin swept across the brocade quilt, and in the soft down comforter, a more enormous number of deadly blood-sucking demons were hidden, making people's hair stand on end.

  Seeing that cotton quilt almost dyed red with blood, Feng Yuxue's face turned gloomy to the extreme.

  It turns out this is that innocent and kind-hearted fifth sister, a timely gift in snowy weather!

  The smell of medicine in the house has not dissipated for years, and with the cold and quiet, she thought it was the bloody smell caused by her own coughing up blood. Under deliberate cover-up, Feng Mianxue had not previously discovered any clues.

  However, the soul inside Feng Mian Xue's body had long since changed and was no longer the same Feng Mian Xue who didn't have any schemes or city walls in her heart, but rather the Dark Empress who grew up crawling out of darkness!

  This trick will not escape her eyes.

  "Mom, come over here! Eat something first!"

  After dealing with the biggest trouble, Feng Xue Xue helped Leng Qing Huan to a couch on one side, poured her a bowl of sweet soup, and let her fill her stomach first.

  She was a quiet and gentle soul, who had only learned about people when she was young, but had always lived deep within the inner chambers. In the end, she lacked a bit of cunning. Over all these years, she hadn't been driven to death by those people, it seemed that there must be someone secretly lending her a helping hand.

  Others can help them for a while, but they cannot protect the mother and daughter for their whole lives.

  In this world, if you are not strong yourself, then there is no one else to rely on!

  She can only rely on herself, riding the wind and waves, going against the current.

  Mercy to an enemy is cruelty to oneself; she must live on and cannot be soft-hearted!

  "Xue Er, you come and have some too!"

  Leng Qinghuan suddenly realized when she saw those blood-sucking leeches that her body had been deteriorating day by day. She had never competed with them for favor or love, but now they were still stepping on her heels, determined to harm her and her mother!

  What can be tolerated and what cannot be tolerated, she has been tolerant for long enough. These people are really too much!

  A thread of cold light flashed across her originally gentle and harmless eyes.

  "Daughter eats too!"

  Feng Mei Xue nodded and sat down beside Leng Qing Huan, picked up a bowl of sweet soup and started drinking.

  After the warm sweet soup entered her throat, she felt that her weak and powerless body also became more comfortable. She picked up a white steamed bun, paired with the sweet soup, and ate it in big mouthfuls.

  This simple steamed bun made her feel like it was the most delicious thing in the world.

  She slowly savored the sweet soup with a dignified and elegant demeanor, her movements exuding nobility. Even in her current state of illness, an air of refinement and elegance still emanated from within her.

  Feng Mei Xue had never heard her mother mention anything about her maternal family, and no one knew her origins. She had also never seen anyone from her maternal family come to visit.

  Leng Qinghuan had always been gentle and never quarreled with others, not understanding the cruelty of human hearts. She would often yield in the face of adversity. As time passed, the people in the Feng manor came to think that she was just a powerless and helpless orphan girl, ultimately becoming someone who could be bullied by anyone.

  However, Feng Yuxue always felt that her mother's maiden home was definitely not ordinary, and the family that could cultivate such a woman must be extraordinary.

  She didn't know why her mother was so down on her luck and hadn't sought help from her natal family, but she believed that her mother must have had her own difficulties.

  "What should be done with these leeches?"

  The cold and clear heart still had lingering fear as it gazed at those blood leeches, patted its chest, and shifted its gaze towards Feng Mian Xue.

  The daughter of today gives her a very different feeling, as if there is a strange charm that can make the world bow down at her feet.

  "Since they've given us such a big gift, we naturally have to return it, otherwise wouldn't that be impolite!"

  Feng Mei Xue put down the bowl and chopsticks in her hand, her voice calm to the point of being terrifying. An ordinary woman would have screamed at the sight of this scene, losing all composure. She was able to remain calm, and even said something like that.

  Leng Qing Huan couldn't help but look at her daughter with a few more points of admiration. It seemed that over the years, her daughter had come to understand more than she herself did!

  But it's also good this way, at least in the future our daughter won't be taken advantage of!

  "Be careful!"

  "Hmm!"

  After eating and drinking enough, Feng Yuxue found a vat, picked up a tree branch, and quickly and neatly scooped all the leeches on the ground into the vat without missing one.

  At the same time, she also checked other corners of the room and found a kind of chronic poison incense in the censer, which had a slightly sweet woody smell. Every night, it would emit a fragrance that lured out the blood-sucking bugs hiding in the quilt and soft pillow.

  The fragrance of the incense contains toxins that settle in the human body, slowly taking away a person's life, and on the surface, nothing seems out of the ordinary.

  All of this was seamless, if Feng Yu Xue hadn't seen it before, no one would have discovered it.

  After collecting various deadly things in the corner of the room, Feng Xue Xue finally helped Leng Qing Wan back to bed. She found an old quilt, checked it for any problems, and carefully covered her with it.

  "Mother, take a good rest, Xue'er will go find a doctor for you!"

  Leng Qinghuan smiled slightly, her eyes gazing at Feng Mianxue with a hint of pity. After she left, he took off the bangle on his wrist. His slender hands rotated the bangle, and it shattered instantly, releasing a puff of cyan smoke that drifted out the window and condensed into a patch of cyan cloud above the Feng manor.

  Feng Mei Xue hadn't noticed the green clouds in the sky, carrying a jar in her hand and a small bundle on her back, moving lightly and nimbly towards the Yan Ran Residence where several young ladies lived.

  Her body was a bit weak, but fortunately her skills were still there, and it was easy for her to sneak into the Yanran residence unnoticed.

  She never holds grudges, and if she does, she settles them on the spot!

  So this time is no exception!
