Jiang Qiao took Jian Ling's arm and said, "Aunt Jian, don't worry about my Uncle Zhou. It's only natural for him to miss home. He's not going there specifically to see his nephew. He's just going back for a quick look. Whether he can go back in the future is another matter."

If you don't want to look at those people, then stay here and keep me company.

Jian Ling shook her head. "That won't do. Sometimes my husband, Lao Zhou, can't refuse, so I have to stay by his side. If anyone dares to bully him, I have to step in. Even though we don't have children, we have you. Your aunt can't handle it, so you go and deal with them."

Jiang Qiao nodded with a smile, "I think it's fine. You can go there without worry. If any of them are too blind, just give me a call and I'll go and teach them a lesson. The certificates we have aren't for nothing, and your good deeds aren't for nothing either."

"I'll have to talk to Song Shutian about this later. We should at least give you guys a certificate or something. We don't care about money, but certificates are valuable; they prove you're good people."

Jian Ling gave her a thumbs up in admiration, saying, "Our Qiao'er really understands us."

Jiang Qiao casually pulled out a wad of cash and bills from her bag. "Keep this for you and Uncle Zhou's travel expenses. Don't be stingy. Your niece may not have any other skills, but she can still make money."

Jian Ling wouldn't stand on ceremony with Jiang Qiao. In her heart, she and her husband treated Jiang Qiao like their own child. Moreover, the couple would be counting on Jiang Qiao to take care of them in their old age, so it would be too formal to be polite.

Seeing the elderly couple still crying while holding their son and grandson, Jiang Qiao went over and put her arms around their shoulders. "Grandpa, Grandma, let's not cry anymore. We should be happy. Look, your second uncle has come back to see you. Your youngest uncle and his son have both returned safe and sound. Our lives will only get better and better from now on. Besides, my youngest uncle's problem has been resolved. Ouyang Mingzhu's accusations were purely fabricated."

"By the way, comrade, may I ask how things were arranged for my uncle and grandfather?"

Since Qiao Youliang was present, Jiang Qiao felt it was best to ask him this question quickly, lest they bring up old grievances after everyone had left.

Jiang Qiao was very satisfied with the answer given by the local staff who were in charge of receiving her.

"Comrade Jiang Qiao, you can rest assured about this. We have already taken care of the situation of Wen Zhongxuan and his son, and Ouyang Mingzhu has also been punished. Your uncle has returned to his original unit, and we have also made the Ouyang family vacate the house."

As for Mr. Wen's situation, the authorities have provided us with proof that he helped us a lot back then. So, there are no problems with him. He wants to stay and live here. We have already negotiated with the person who provided the house, and the house has been vacated and prepared. It is ready for us to move in at any time.

"Look, if there's anything else you need us to resolve, please let us know. We'll try our best to do what we can."

Wen Songtao was already very satisfied with the handling of the matter. He held Jiang Qiao's hand and thanked her repeatedly, saying, "Thank you all for your help. We have no other requests."

Jiang Qiao chimed in, "May I ask, is this measure temporary or permanent? What if you have staff changes later and this doesn't apply?"

Jiang Qiao's words were really sharp, and even the people in charge of reception felt awkward for a moment.

"No way, Comrade Jiang Qiao, don't worry. It's already been documented. We'll have Comrade Wen Zhongxuan pick it up later. It's already been distributed to the sub-district offices."

Jiang Qiao nodded. "That's more like it. We don't want some people to not know about it, that would be troublesome."

What could the other party say? It's rare to encounter someone as direct and bold as Jiang Qiao. But he has the capital to be bold. There are few among them who haven't heard of Jiang Qiao's name.

"Comrade Jiang Qiao, don't worry. The higher-ups have given instructions that we will definitely resolve any issues that need to be resolved."

Jiang Qiao nodded. "That's good. Let's not stand here anymore, let's go home?"

Wen Songtao smiled and nodded, then, pulling his son and nephew along, said, "Let's go home—"

However, Jiang Qiao was stopped by the comrade who was receiving her. Although Jiang Qiao was the granddaughter of the Wen family, she was also sent by the higher-ups to be responsible for accompanying and protecting them. There were some things that he felt were more appropriate to talk to Jiang Qiao about.

"Comrade Jiang Qiao, um, how about we go home and sit for a while, and then go out to eat? We're all ready."

Jiang Qiao shook her head. "It's more appropriate to eat at home. Did the hotel prepare it?"

"We haven't done it yet; we're just waiting for the person to arrive before we start."

“Then we’ll decline it. It’s not easy for my second uncle to come all this way, so it’s more appropriate to entertain him at home. He’s here because of my maternal grandfather and his family.”

How about this, I'll provide the money and the tickets, and you guys can buy the items. I doubt there's much stuff here at home, so I'll have to trouble your comrades to run errands for us.

Don't try to refuse me. This is a matter for the Wen family. Even if my grandfather and uncle found out, they wouldn't let you pay for it.

Jiang Qiao took out the money and tickets and asked the other party to make the purchases. She then met up with Jian Ling, who was waiting for her ahead, and asked a question as they walked.

"Does Wen Ziqing know that my grandfather and the others are back?"

"I know. I met with your grandparents last night. The old folks were mainly worried about their granddaughter. So, after the meeting, Wen Ziqing apologized to them."

Jiang Qiao nodded. "That's more like it. At least she's smart and knows what's best for herself. Sigh, her younger sister is such a clueless person. She almost drove my uncle crazy."

Then he told Jian Ling about what Wen Ziling had done.

After hearing this, Jian Ling got angry. "What kind of child is this? This is an enemy! She didn't even ask a single question about her own father and brother. Stay away from people like this in the future. She's selfish and self-serving. If you rely on her in the future, your uncle will probably have to beg for food."

Jiang Qiao gave a wry smile. "Luckily, my grandparents didn't hear this, or they would have been furious."

As Jian Ling walked, she said, "Wen Ziqing is setting up at home, so we won't stay for dinner. We'll just go to Old Zhou's house for a quick look and then come right back."

Jiang Qiao nodded. "Okay, be careful."

Jiang Qiao left and parted ways with Jian Ling and the others. On the way back, Jiang Qiao was still full of emotion. She thought she would have to wait several years to bring the old couple back. She didn't expect it to be so soon. That's why they say life is like a play. She didn't expect this outcome. It's good that Qiao Youliang came back this time.

Jiang Qiao sat in the back and arrived home a little later. When she entered the house, the eyes of the Wen family members were all red, especially Wen Ziqing, whose tears had not yet been wiped away.

It seems that the old man and woman have forgiven their granddaughter.

"Alright, everyone, sit down quickly. Ziqing, has the water boiled yet? Make some tea for everyone."

Wen Ziqing was surprised when she saw Jiang Qiao like this.

You're pregnant?

Jiang Qiao smiled and nodded, "That's right, I'm still waiting to drink your wedding wine, we'll talk about it later."

Jiang Qiao hurriedly brewed the tea and let the elders chat and drink tea inside the house. She looked around the room.

"Not bad, that family takes good care of the house."
