Rebirth: The Journey of an Heiress novel Chapter 81

Chapter 81: Chapter 80: Bewildered Young Child_1

With just one word, “without support,” her heart, liver, spleen, lungs, and kidneys were shredded. The spicy, bitter, and desperate sorrow surged up, almost making her cry out loud, and her tears flowed like a torrent.

She bit her teeth and said, “I can support it!”

“Fourth Aunt, we sisters will support Little Seventeen together. We can definitely do it!” She clutched her fox fur with all her might, the veins on the back of her hand bulging, and shouted, “Bai Jinxiu! Bai Jintong!”

Bai Jinxiu and Bai Jintong, who were already in tears, hurried over and knelt beside Bai Qingyan. Bai Jinzhi even broke free from her personal maid and limped toward Little Seventeen.

“Today, the three of us sisters will… hold Little Seventeen’s body and support Little Seventeen’s head! We will bring our family’s hero of the Jin Kingdom, Little Seventeen, home!”

The ten-year-old boy’s body in armor was already stiff. Bai Qingyan supported Little Seventeen’s back from the arms of the fourth lady, Mrs. Wang. Bai Jintong supported Little Seventeen’s head, and Bai Jinxiu held Little Seventeen’s legs.

...

“And me!” Bai Jinzhi gritted her teeth, lifted Little Seventeen’s waist with both hands, tears streaming down her face as she shouted, “Little Seventeen! Sister is taking you home!”

“Support the fourth lady!” Mrs. Dong suppressed her sobs and shouted, “Home!”

Paper money floated in the air, and the matriarch of the Duke of Zhen’s Mansion, Mrs. Dong, walked in front, scattering paper money to guide the soul.

Dong Qingyue lifted the wooden support beam and shouted, “Lift the coffin!”

Except for the already shattered small coffin, three wooden coffins were lifted one by one and carried into the southern gate of Dadu City under the escort of the Bai family’s guards.

Bai Qingxuan, who had been crying loudly, hurriedly knelt to the side, his heart filled with unease.

The soldiers guarding the southern gate saw the grieving citizens kneeling in sorrow; they also bowed their heads, clasped their fists, and struck their chests, saluting the slowly entering loyal bones.

Bai Qingyan tightly embraced her youngest brother, Little Seventeen. Bai Jintong steadily supported Little Seventeen’s head and neck, following behind the three coffins, walking steadily towards the Duke of Zhen’s Mansion.

Bai Jinzhi saw the citizens kneeling and crying along the way, wishing she could immediately grab a whip and rush to the frontier to kill all those who harmed her Bai family’s men… those who harmed Little Seventeen.

“King Xin’s attitude towards our Bai family is the attitude of the imperial family towards us. Little Fourth, today you saw with your own eyes how they treated Little Seventeen, how they treated our grandfather, uncles, and younger brother. What kind of coffin did they use, and how did they treat our Bai family! Do you understand? The Bai family is no longer the Bai family you thought it was. The Bai family is now in a precarious situation, and there is no time for you to grow up slowly! Little Fourth, you must grow up!”

Bai Qingyan looked straight ahead, her eyes aching, and spoke word by word to Bai Jinzhi, who lifted Little Seventeen’s waist beside her.

Bai Jinzhi couldn’t hold back her tears and nodded, choking, “Little Fourth understands!”
