The Ruanlin Family matriarch smiled, cradling Jiaojiao and gently rocking her, while patting her gently on the waist, humming an unknown tune in time with the rhythm.
Beside her, Xiu Xi looked at his forcibly withdrawn hand, his eyes filled with a complex expression... It was the second time he regretted...
Jiaojiao didn't look at him, her entire focus was on the dream she had had; she knew the matriarch's death took place after her sixth birthday, and her birthday was in October. The matriarch died when mulberries were ripe for eating, which meant it should be around this time next year.
She could try to avoid the matriarch's death, but what about the others?
Ruan Chi drowned in a river, and Ruan Qun died from a snakebite. Among the nine brothers, they were the only two who died young, and she didn't know which river Ruan Chi had drowned in, nor did she know when Ruan Qun was bitten, let alone how she could avoid these events.
