Shui Qing quickly opened the door and asked, "Is your uncle here?"

Besides Wen Hua, who else from their family could come?

Besides, even if the villagers came, Dajiang wouldn't be this excited.

Fan Jiang's excitement hadn't faded yet, and he said happily, "It's not my uncle, but you'll definitely be very happy to see this person!"

"So you know how to keep us in suspense now." Shui Qing didn't bother guessing. Since the person had already arrived, why not just go out and see for herself?

She stepped out of the main room and saw a carriage already parked in front of the large courtyard.

Two tall horses pulled a cart with an oilcloth-covered carriage. It was a very ordinary and simple vehicle, far inferior to the one used by the Bai family's entourage when they arrived.

The villagers who didn't come to watch the commotion in the courtyard now are probably because they no longer think much of the tarpaulin-covered carriage after witnessing what happened to the old lady of the Bai family.

"Aunt Shuiqing!" A familiar, excited boy's voice came from afar.

Shui Qing didn't need to look closely to know that Bai Ziqian had returned!

She squinted and saw two middle-aged men and women of similar age standing behind the young boy.

The man was not tall, with a fair complexion and a kind face; his smile was even more amiable.

The woman was dressed in a smart outfit, standing tall and straight like a poplar tree, exuding a heroic and spirited air!

Shui Qing has always been unable to resist handsome women, and seeing the ancient version now only intensifies her attraction.

In the blink of an eye, the middle-aged man and woman had already walked up to the two of them.

Bai Manshan and Li Huyu bowed deeply to Shui Qing and Fan Jin under the eaves.

Fan Jin stepped forward first, helped Bai Manshan up, and said repeatedly, "No, no! We cannot accept such a great honor."

Although Shuiqing didn't understand the significance of this etiquette, she could see that the two people's respect was almost overflowing!

She quickly imitated Fan Jin, helping the spirited woman to her feet and saying with a smile, "Are you Ziqian's parents?"

"Well, we should have listened to what he told you. We know nothing about these things and don't care, so please don't stand on ceremony."

Li Huyu immediately treated Shui Qing as one of her own. She flipped her wrist, took Shui Qing's hand, and said intimately, "Even if you don't care, we can't be ignorant of etiquette!"

Last time... we really made you suffer, my husband and I are truly ashamed!

Bai Manshan blushed with embarrassment when he thought of his mother and sister's behavior, even though he thought he had a thick skin. He apologized in a low voice, "I'm sorry about last time!"

My husband and I have been feeling ashamed and have been preparing for this for many days. We have only now taken the liberty of visiting you. We humbly request that you both forgive us for what is in Ziqian's name.

Fan Jin hadn't taken Old Madam Bai and Bai Ling's words to heart.

Shui Qing is not the type to take her anger out on others.

How many parents are so irresponsible that their children suffer and have to clean up their mess?

She's been through it before; she has one in her own family too. If everyone takes their anger out on their children, they'll have no way to live in Shanshui Village.

"You flatter us. It's all in the past, and we haven't taken it to heart. Please don't worry about it either," Fan Jin said politely.

Shui Qing was much more direct, saying, "What's there to be ashamed of? We saved Ziqian back then, and he helped us with the work too."

He earns his food through his own labor, so it's not like he's being supported for nothing; it's fair!

Li Huyu's fondness for Shui Qing was even greater.

In today's world, who would ask a teenager for help?

Especially since she knew exactly what kind of spoiled and arrogant her own child was.
