During the famine, a sack of grain was traded for a little girl. Everyone thought the family had lost their minds.
But ever since they adopted little Qingtian, it was as if their lives had be...
"After sending you outside the Great Wall, your father stopped being lazy and started to make progress. In recent years, he has been increasingly valued by the Emperor.
"Don't worry, our family will only get better and better in the future. Dad and Mom will always protect you, and what happened before will not happen again."
Looking at Qin's somewhat sad eyes, Qin Hexuan felt even more uncomfortable.
Suddenly I felt that my previous resentment towards my parents seemed nothing compared to these.
But if that’s the case, would all the suffering and loneliness I’ve endured over the years have been in vain?
Qin Hexuan was in a dilemma for a moment.
Just at this time, the carriage had slowly stopped outside the second gate.
Back in the main courtyard, Madam Qin rubbed her son's head and said, "It's getting late. You must be tired after a busy day. Go back and rest early!"
"Yes, mother, I'll take my leave."
Watching Qin Hexuan turn into the moon gate across the courtyard, Madam Qin couldn't help but ask Nanny Jiang beside her, "Tell me, has Hexuan changed since before?"
“Madam, the master and you are both kind people, and even if the young master has not been raised by your side since childhood, he is not wrong.
"The young master is still young, and he feels a little distant from the old master and you. It's normal for him to feel a little resentful.
"But the young master is fundamentally the same as you two, so he will gradually understand the sacrifices made by the old master and you for him.
"By then, there's no need for us to say anything. The young master will have already achieved his goal."
"I hope it's like you said!"
Madam Qin sighed softly and returned to her room with the help of Nanny Jiang.
…
As for the Ye family, they tried to walk as fast as possible along the way.
But the sky was getting darker day by day, and when the group arrived at Fengle County, it was already completely dark.
Seeing this, Sister Ye said, "Aunt, Uncle, I think you should stay in the county for one night before going back.
"Master Qin is bringing people here to suppress the bandits now. If those bandits get desperate and do something crazy, it will be no joke."
Ye Juan'er was going back to the village anyway, but just now she was traveling with a group of people, but now it was just her and Liu Quan going back. Looking at the dark sky, she couldn't help feeling a little scared.
Liu Quan didn't really want to go back at night, but he didn't dare to say anything. He could only use his eyes to signal Boss Ye to say a few words.
Boss Ye received his gaze and immediately said, "That's right, Auntie, you don't know, those bandits are all desperate criminals who kill without blinking an eye.
"I'm not saying anything unlucky, I just think, look, it's so hard to have a big happy event in the family, what if... what do you think?
"You guys can stay overnight, go visit the boss tomorrow, and then go home safely, wouldn't that be great?"
Thinking of her eldest son, Ye Juan'er was finally persuaded and said, "That makes sense. Let's stay for one night. We can find a room at an inn nearby!"
"Auntie, look at what you said. If you follow us at night, do we really need to go to the inn?"
Ye Juan'er was afraid that they would do this, so she took the initiative to say that she wanted to go to the inn to get a room.
"I know you're all living in Mr. Jiang's house now, but that's because you're friends. We're not related to Mr. Jiang, and we can't help him in any way, so we won't bother you!"
In fact, Ye Juan'er was afraid that her and her husband's visit would cause trouble for Mrs. Ye. After all, if she were Mr. Jiang, she could imagine how annoyed he would be if his guests brought back strangers.
"Aunt, you're just being overly suspicious," said Mrs. Ye. "Now, our family of three, the third daughter-in-law, and the other kitchen helpers all live in the same courtyard. There are several empty rooms in the courtyard. There's no need to go out of your way to accommodate you. You're just going to sleep there and leave. There's really no need to worry so much."
"Is this true?" Ye Juan'er asked, still a little doubtful. "Don't lie to me, it really won't affect you guys."
Mrs. Ye said with certainty, "Really? No, we'll go back after dinner and leave early tomorrow morning. Mr. Jiang won't mind at all."
"Okay, then I'll bother you!" Ye Juan'er said, "Let's go see how your mother is doing first, and then find a place to eat."
"Okay!" Boss Ye was also thinking about his mother, so he nodded repeatedly and drove towards the clinic.
Ye Juaner quickly took out some silver and stuffed it into Liu Quan's pocket, saying, "When we get to the clinic, put me down, then go find the boss at the store, give him the money, and ask him to book a nice restaurant.
"Then hurry back to pick me up, and we'll treat the boss and his family to a good meal!"
Although Ye Juan'er was reluctant to spend money to stay in the inn, she was very willing to spend money to express her gratitude to Ye Lao Da's family.
Spending money on hotel accommodation is a pure waste.
But if we all go out for a nice meal together and express our gratitude to our benefactor, the money is well spent.
Liu Quan was originally a son-in-law, and Ye Juaner had always been in charge of family affairs.
Besides, he knew in his heart that Boss Ye's family had helped a lot this time. Let alone one meal, even ten meals would not be enough to express his gratitude.
So when he heard Ye Juan'er telling him not to be reluctant to spend money, he took the silver without hesitation and said, "Don't worry, I understand this principle.
"I think if we go to visit my sister-in-law, we should buy something to take with us. That would be proper visiting. Otherwise, it would be rude to go empty-handed."
