Qi Yao's farewell blessing made Yu Wanqiao's words about whether he could still go shopping with them tomorrow morning get stuck in her throat.

The atmosphere was a bit awkward in the second half of the dinner.

Because Yu Wanqiao kept her head down the whole time, her eyes were red, and she seemed to be about to cry but couldn't.

The three young men saw it but pretended not to see it.

After dinner, Yu Wanqiao said goodbye to them.

The ancient town was bustling with lights, wine and women, and a constant stream of people, but she was not in the mood to go shopping.

After returning to the hotel, she asked her secretary to check out and returned to Yu Garden that night.

The three teenagers watched a free iron flower making performance in the ancient town. All three of them had excited smiles on their faces. They took photos, recorded videos, walked around along the way, and their happiness was beyond words.

When the high-altitude fireworks show in the ancient town began, brilliant flames shot into the sky, and then bloomed into even more gorgeous and dazzling totems. At that moment, it felt like the splendor of the whole world was about to unfold.

at the same time.

Yu Wanqiao, who had just returned to Yu Garden, stayed in her room, holding a calico cat, burying her head in the cat's body, and sobbing.

She cried so sadly.

She could clearly feel Qi Yao's alienation and even defensiveness towards her.

She approached him cautiously in the beginning, and then finally had the chance to approach him openly. She had been secretly in love with him for three whole years. When she knew that her father wanted to marry into the Qi family, God knows how ecstatic she was!

That day in Lan Palace, when he took her to visit the paintings in the corridor.

She really wanted to tell him—

"Qi Yao, I like you! Can you give me a chance and be my boyfriend?"

But she still held back.

She knew he had just ended a relationship and was afraid of putting pressure on him.

She likes it so carefully.

But the Yu Yuhan incident that followed completely disrupted her steps.

Since then, everything has changed. He said that he believed she was different from Yu Yuhan, but his alienation and vigilance could not deceive anyone.

She is not stupid.

She could feel it.

At exactly the same time, the boys' unbridled laughter and the girls' soft sobbing outlined two completely different scenes.

Outside the suite door.

A figure left quietly and went into Yu Xunzhi's study.

"The eldest lady is still crying."

Yu Xunzhi looked solemn. He glanced at the wall clock and finally picked up his cell phone and dialed a number.

The other party picked up the phone quickly, and said anxiously: "Dad! What's the matter?"

Obviously, she was scared by the old man calling her so late at night.

Yu Xunzhi sighed: "Shuyi, calling you so late, will it disturb your rest?"

"I haven't slept yet." Lin Shuyi had just finished speaking when her grandson Yu Jiayi's voice, oh no, it was Lin Jiayi's, came from the other side: "Mom! Is there something wrong with Grandpa?"

Lin Shuyi comforted her son: "Don't be anxious, listen to what your grandfather says first."

In an instant, Yu Xunzhi's eyes were wet.

His daughter-in-law has been with him day and night for twenty years, and his grandson has been in his care for sixteen years.

In the end, because of an unfilial son who insisted on getting a divorce, an 18-year-old illegitimate daughter appeared, which broke the daughter-in-law's heart. Not only did he lose such a good daughter-in-law, but even his eldest grandson changed back to his mother's surname and insisted on leaving the Yu family with his mother.

It's because he, as a parent, doesn't know how to educate his son.

He is the one who is sorry for his daughter-in-law and grandson.

Yu Xunzhi's nose felt sore and he felt very uncomfortable.

Lin Shuyi couldn't hear the old man's words, so she quickly asked again, "Dad! Are you feeling unwell? Isn't Qiaoqiao by your side?"

Yu Xunzhi took a deep breath, relieved his depressed mood, and then said: "Shuyi, Dad called you because I have something to ask of you."

Lin Shuyi: "Dad, just tell me!"

Yu Xunzhi: "Qiaoqiao cried in her room for a long time, probably because of something emotional. You know she has been without a mother since she was a child, and her feelings towards you are just like her own mother. She only reports good news and never bad news, and she never takes the initiative to talk about anything, so..."

Before he could finish his words, Lin Shuyi said, "Dad, I'm going to call Qiaoqiao and talk to her. It's late today, so go to bed first. I'll call you back tomorrow morning and tell you the results of today's conversation."

Yu Xunzhi was touched: "Okay, thank you for your help, Shuyi."

Lin Shuyi: "It's okay. Qiaoqiao's affairs are also my affairs. Dad, you take a rest first. I'll call her right away."

The call ended.

Lin Shuyi was very worried and quickly called Yu Wanqiao.

Yu Wanqiao took a long time to answer the phone.

"sister in law."

Her voice was hoarse and she sounded like she had a cold.

Lin Shuyi asked, "Qiaoqiao, the Ghost Festival is only twenty days away.

Jiayi and I ordered a batch of paper figurines from a paper-making shop and wanted to take them to burn for my mother-in-law on the Ghost Festival, but I was afraid of running into your brother and that mother and daughter.

I have let it go long ago and am not afraid of them.

But you also know that Jiayi has a hot temper. If you bump into him and cause trouble, it would be bad.

So I would like to ask you to help us burn the paper items for my mother-in-law when the time comes.

Jiayi and I won't go. We'll burn some paper money for grandma in our yard to express our gratitude."

Yu Xunzhi attached great importance to his late wife's affairs after her death. He would go to her grave to pay tribute to her on the Qingming Festival, the Zhongyuan Festival and the Hanyi Festival every year. As his late wife's memorial day was his daughter's birthday, Yu Xunzhi would always hold it at home. Not only would he buy a birthday cake for his daughter on that day, but he would also share a piece of birthday cake in front of his late wife's portrait.
