Chapter 337 - Ancestral Hall II
"Hey, spoiled girl." historical
As soon as Jiang Ruolan walked to the door, she first cautiously looked outside. Then she slowly walked out and looked around, there's no one out there.
At this moment, a cat suddenly ran out from the bushes. As it ran, the nimble kitten suddenly jumped over, frightening Jiang Ruolan. She quickly walked to the front and looked at the bushes.
Was she overthinking it?
Why did she feel like something was wrong here?
As Jiang Ruolan was thinking, she suddenly heard a cracking sound and a loud bang behind her. She abruptly turned around and noticed that the roof of the ancestral hall had collapsed and the wall also began to look like it was about to break.
"Grandfather!" Jiang Ruolan's face turned pale with fear. Quickly, she ran towards the ancestral room.
"Grandfather!"
Why did the roof suddenly come off? Why did cracks appear on solid walls? When the wind was blowing hard now, there were no signs of an earthquake.

Old Man Xian didn't seem to notice the roof was collapsed. He only heard a loud noise and quietly walked outside. When he heard Jiang Ruolan's voice, he was stunned for a moment and then pointed his cane to her with a serious expression. "You go first! Don't come in!"
"Grandfather!"
"Don't come in!" Old Man Xian scolded her when he saw Jiang Ruolan wanting to try to save him. He angrily stuck his cane to the ground. "Spoiled girl, leave quickly! Don't worry about me!"
"Grandfather, your legs are not strong, let me help you out!" Jiang Ruolan's gaze was clear and firm as she gripped the Old Man's arm tightly. "Let's go, grandpa!"
Seeing that she had already entered, the Old Man had no choice but to shake his head and say, "This ancestral hall has not been repaired in a long time. I saw some cracks in the roof last week, but it hasn't collapsed yet."
The Old Man hesitated for a moment before he hurriedly followed Jiang Ruolan out.
Cracks began appearing on the eaves of the house. One of the beams suddenly fell and the Old Man immediately pulled Jiang Ruolan back one step.
"Be careful!"
Jiang Ruolan hesitated as she looked ahead. The door was already full of dust, and she couldn't see anything clearly because of the strong wind outside. Still, she felt something was wrong, but running away and going to a safe place was the most important thing right now.
Suddenly, a beam at the side broke at the same time and the two of them heard the cracking sound. The heavy dust made them unable to see the surrounding situation clearly. When the beam fell, Jiang Ruolan cried out, but by the time they could see clearly, it was already too late. Seeing that the beam was about to hit the Old Man, she screamed, "Grandfather!"
Jiang Ruolan pushed the Old Man forward with all her might, and then she felt a great pain in her forehead. Blood began to flow down her head and covered her eyes. Then she heard Old Man Xian's heartbroken voice, crying out her name. "Ruolan!"
Jiang Ruolan tried to prevent herself from fainting, but her mind was in a mess, and her eyes were once again covered in blood. She gritted her teeth and tried to lift her head. Jiang Ruolan saw the Old Man still not leaving the ancestral hall, so she hurriedly moved forward.
However, just as she took a step forward, her feet were caught by the rafters on the ground, causing her to fall uncontrollably to the ground.
"Spoiled girl!"
"Ruolan!"
In that split-second, a figure rushed into the hall and grabbed Jiang Ruolan's body as she was about to fall to the ground. Jiang Ruolan sighed with relief and used her last strength to cover her stomach with both of her hands.
Fortunately, nothing happened to her child.
"Ruolan! Jiang Ruolan!" The person holding her shouted her name. "Ruolan! How are you?"
Jiang Ruolan felt like her body was being carried out, so she forced herself to open her eyes. In the chaos, she saw Jiang Yijun's blurry face. "Grandfather. Please save grandpa first."
Jiang Yijun was stunned for a moment. However, Jiang Ruolan firmly grabbed his collar and stared at him with her blood-stained eyes. "I will not ask why you are here... I just want you to save ... Grandpa ... If something happened to him ... I ... Cough! You ... Hurry up and save him!"
Jiang Yijun's face immediately turned pale as he looked at her in surprise." Ruolan."
"Hurry up and save grandpa!" Jiang Ruolan couldn't hold on any longer. She had no strength left at all. Her head hurt badly.
"Ruolan! AHH! What's going on?" Behind Zhan An, there were also Xian Jian and Nanny Cheng, who rushed over at the same time.

Jiang Yijun's expression darkened. He quickly turned around and rushed to the collapsed ancestral hall after handing her over to Zhan An.
"Ruolan!" Zhan An tried to support her, but Jiang Ruolan's body felt weak and she almost fell. "Where is the Old Man? Ruolan ... How are you? Why did the ancestral hall suddenly collapse?!"
Xian Jian walked over to support her and asked in a serious tone, "What has happened?!"
Jiang Yijun rushed to the ancestral hall and helped the Old Man out. Old Man Xian was unharmed and didn't suffer any injuries. The only thing that almost hit him was blocked by Jiang Ruolan.
He was choking hard from the dust of the rubble. When he came out and saw Jiang Ruolan's head covered in blood, he anxiously asked. "How is spoiled girl? Spoiled girl!"
Jiang Yijun released Old Man Xian and walked towards her with a quick step.
Seeing the Old Man fine, Jiang Ruolan sighed in relief and closed her eyes. If not for Zhan An and Xian Jian, who supported her, she would probably fall to the ground now.
"Dad, how are you?" Xian Jian immediately asked when he saw the Old Man coming out safely.
The Old Man waved his hand. "I'm fine, I'm not going to die. Spoiled girl has saved my life. Quickly call Dr. Li and tell him to check on her condition now!"
"Ruolan." With a pained heart, Zhan An gently wiped the blood from her face. "Come, mom will help you go back!"
However, Jiang Ruolan said in a low voice before she completely lost her consciousness, "Don't… Tell Zihao ..."
"What?"
"I was only slightly injured ... Don't tell Zihao... Don't tell him." After saying this, she felt a split headache and unable to hold it any longer.
Her sight began to darken and she slowly fell into the darkness.
