After lunch, Hua Nanxing told everyone...

"I've come here to say goodbye. It's been more than half a year since I left the Great Medicine Valley. My father wrote to urge me to return... The journey is long, and perhaps we won't even have the chance to meet again..."

After speaking, Hua Nanxing's eyelashes trembled slightly, and she lowered her eyes without looking at anyone, seemingly somewhat saddened.

Hua Nanxing's words were like a bombshell. Aunt Ren's smile instantly turned into panic and worry as she turned to look at Ren Tianci.

Ren Tianci stood there stunned, his eyes glazed over for a moment, and the air fell silent.

Even Lin Zao noticed something was wrong.

Although she was caught off guard by Hua Nanxing's departure, the two had a fairly good relationship during this time.

But the girl's home wasn't in Ganzhou to begin with, so leaving was only a matter of time.

She was already surprised that he stayed until the Lunar New Year; now that he wants to go back, she will only send him her blessings.

But now, looking at Aunt Ren's face, which seemed to be crying but wasn't, and Ren Tianci's ugly expression, Lin Zao finally guessed something.

Everyone fell silent for a moment.

It was Hua Nanxing who broke the silence, "Qianqian, you can stay here. You don't need to come back to the Great Medicine Valley with me. Your family is all here; you might never see them again if you leave..."

Ren Qianqian looked at her mother and brother, then at her young mistress, and hesitated.

"Miss, I..."

"When I bought you, I destroyed your indenture and later registered it with the government, so you can stay without worry."

Ren Qianqian was so moved that she didn't know what to say. Her young mistress had actually canceled her status as a slave.

After her brother was conscripted and left, she saw her parents struggling to support the family. They were also constantly in tears because of her brother's departure. Her father also rarely made house calls, making life even more difficult for the family.

In order to make her family's life better, she secretly sold herself into the household of the prefect as a maid.

So that I can save all my monthly allowance for my parents.

When her parents found out, they beat and scolded her and wanted to redeem her, but at that time she was only focused on giving her family a better life, so she refused.

In addition, she was doing quite well as a maid in the prefect's household at that time, and after much persuasion, her parents finally agreed to redeem her in a few years.

But I never expected what happened next...

If she hadn't met Miss, her life might have ended long ago; Miss gave her a second chance at life.

The young lady also patiently taught her medical knowledge and treated her like a sister.

With her mother having the General's Mansion to rely on and her brother having his own future, there was nothing she could do to help if she stayed.

But the young lady only had herself as her devoted maid...

Having thought it through, Ren Qianqian, as if making a firm decision, said to Hua Nanxing:

"Miss, Qianqian has made up her mind. I want to go back to the Great Medicine Valley with you!"

"flourishing···"

Aunt Ren stared wide-eyed at her daughter, unable to believe that Ren Qianqian would choose to leave them.

Ren Qianqian turned to look at her mother and older brother, and knelt down with a 'plop' and kowtowed to her mother.

"Mother, please forgive your unfilial daughter. Miss has treated me with immense kindness and taught me precious medical skills. If I were to leave like this, I would be an unfaithful and unjust person. Please grant me your request, Mother."

After hearing her daughter's words, Aunt Ren knew that she could not keep her daughter. She knew that her daughter's choice was right and the best choice.

But she also couldn't bear to leave her daughter alone out there, worried that they wouldn't know if something happened to her.

Looking at her daughter's determined eyes, Aunt Ren was speechless for a moment.

What should I do?
