"Grandpa, I will stay here with you in place of my brother from now on." Shen Huaiqing looked at Shen Xiuyi with admiration.

"Alas, the last time Xiaotao told me that you wanted to come to Qingshan Village, I disagreed... Originally I thought that staying in Jing City had a better future, but now it seems that nothing is more important than your health." Shen Xiuyi sighed.

It was already a blessing from God that Huaiqing could stand here safely, and he could not be greedy and ask for more.

"Grandpa Shen, don't worry, Huaiqing hasn't fallen behind in his studies. He has been tutored by his brother for a while and has caught up. I asked the village chief to send him to school later."

Knowing that Shen Xiuyi was worried about Huaiqing's studies, Feng Lingyu added.

Sure enough, Shen Xiuyi's brows relaxed a lot after hearing this.

"That's good! That's good!" Although I can't take the college entrance examination now, I can see from Huaiyu that as long as I have education, there will always be a way out.

When you look at factories in the city recruiting, don’t they all have restrictions on academic qualifications?

Better positions require a high school diploma, while apprenticeships require at least a junior high school diploma.

Thinking of this, Shen Xiuyi instructed Shen Huaiqing again: "Grandpa's identity is too sensitive, you just follow your sister Xiaoyu well, and don't expose our relationship in front of outsiders, understand?"

Shen Huaiqing is a little kid and can't keep secrets. If their relationship as a grandfather and grandson is known to outsiders, Huaiqing will probably be excluded and bullied at school.

"Okay, Grandpa, I won't come alone next time. I'll wait for Sister Xiaoyu or Sister Xiaotao to come, and then I'll come together." Shen Huaiqing nodded his head solemnly.

In the following time, Feng Lingyu told Shen Xiuyi about Shen Xiude.

After hearing the news that Shen Huaiyu had taken back the Shen family compound, Shen Xiuyi was obviously a little lonely.

"Am I really a failure as a human being? Why would one of them be my brother and the other my sister and stab me in the back?"

"Grandpa Shen, it's just that his greed is insatiable... You don't have to be too sad, Huaiyu has taken back everything he should have taken. Besides, Shen Xiude is just a pawn, what's important is the person behind him who harmed us."

Fortunately, we now know who is behind this.

Thinking of this, Feng Lingyu asked again: "Grandpa Shen, how much do you know about Ling Qingyue?"

"She is your mother's cousin. I only know that she stayed at your house for a while. I don't know much else." Shen Xiuyi recalled carefully, but he really couldn't remember anything about Ling Qingyue.

"I don't know why she did these things. Since she came to your mother for help, she should have a good relationship with your mother, right?" Shen Xiuyi was puzzled.

Feng Lingyu sneered, her eyes were cold and fierce, and she said coldly: "I don't want to know why she did these things. Since she dared to reach out, I will chop off her claws."

What's more, she killed me, and I have a blood feud with her, which is a situation of life and death.

"Grandpa Shen, I'm sorry. I didn't expect that my family's affairs would implicate you." Feng Lingyu said seriously.

"How can you say that? When I went out to fight, it was thanks to your father's help that the Shen family was able to survive. Otherwise, with just Shen Xiude, I'm afraid he would have ruined the family business long ago. Unfortunately, he thinks highly of himself and thinks he saved the Shen family."

Speaking of the latter part, Shen Xiuyi's tone was obviously mocking.

"Xiao Yu, no matter what other families think, our Shen family has always supported your father. In the past, our Shen family was the most famous jeweler, with many different jewels in hand, which attracted the covetousness of many people.

If your father hadn't intervened at the time, the Shen family's wealth would have been confiscated long ago."

"As for the Feng family's branch, I only know that they moved to Shanghai. I don't know much about them. Logically speaking, your mother and your father are already married, and the Ling family will not marry another daughter to the Feng family."

In order to avoid internal friction, large families often do not let two daughters marry into the same family, so that there will be no division of interests.

"My mother's family has moved abroad, otherwise we wouldn't be able to find out the whole story." Feng Lingyu said regretfully.

In today's social environment, it is basically impossible for ordinary people to go abroad.

Otherwise, she could go and ask the Ling family. Just by looking at the dowry the Ling family prepared for her mother, she could tell that the Ling family must love her very much.

"However, a rat that hides its head and shows its tail will eventually show its head. Right now Ling Qingyue doesn't know that I already know her, and this is my biggest advantage."

I believe that when I appear in front of Ling Qingyue one day, that woman’s expression will be very interesting.

It was already late when I returned from Shen Xiuyi.

Gao Xiaotao sat in the living room, nodding her head, looking extremely sleepy.

"Xiaotao, if you're sleepy, go back to sleep. Don't worry about us." Feng Lingyu said softly.

Gao Xiaotao shook her head. "You and Huaiqing have been on the train for several days, and you didn't rest today. Why should I be tired?"

"I've boiled some hot water in the kitchen. You can take a bath before going to bed."

Fortunately, a bathroom was built when the house was renovated. All we have to do is boil some hot water and lead the water there to take a shower.

It’s extremely convenient.

Feng Lingyu felt warm in her heart as she watched Gao Xiaotao trying to stay asleep while getting pajamas for herself and Huaiqing.

This silly girl.

She got up early in the morning to pick me up at the train station. Isn't she tired too?

"You should go to bed soon. I'm not a guest. I know everything in the house. Why do I have to watch over anything?" Feng Lingyu advised.

Gao Xiaotao still shook her head stubbornly.

Seeing that she insisted, Feng Lingyu had no choice but to let her do as she pleased.

Shen Huaiqing had already gone to take a shower in his pajamas.

He hadn't thought that there would be a bathroom specifically for bathing in the countryside.

Although the conditions in Qingshan Village are very poor, the house built by Sister Xiaoyu has a really good environment, better than the houses in the city.

"Huaiqing, are you done washing?" Gao Xiaotao asked outside.

Shen Huaiqing came back to his senses and replied, "Okay, come out right away!"

"Now that you're done washing, go to bed! Get some rest!"

"Okay! Good night, Sister Tao!"

…

Only after Feng Lingyu had finally packed up did Gao Xiaotao go back to her room to sleep.

After two months' absence, Feng Lingyu was lying on his kang again.

Gao Xiaotao had taken the bedding out to wash and dry, and her nose was filled with the fresh smell of sunshine.

Beside my legs, Tuanzi was sleeping soundly, curled up in a ball and making snoring sounds.
