Hua Xiangyun waited until he stamped his fingerprint before putting the paper away. "When the time is right, I will donate all of these in your name."

Don't worry! This is at least a little bit of public morality, and it will greatly benefit your future reincarnation.

Wenjie never expected such a good thing to happen; the money he had worked so hard to save in his life was finally coming back to him.

"Master, I don't know how to thank you enough." Wenjie bowed repeatedly in gratitude.

Hua Xiangyun still offered a word of advice, "You've taught them a lesson these past few days, and I'm sure they'll never forget it. It's time to stop, and the right thing to do is to go to the underworld as soon as possible."

Wenjie had no attachments to the world, but he couldn't swallow the fact that he had been treated this way after years of hard work.

He's vented his anger enough now, and he doesn't want to see those unfilial sons again.

As the resentment in his heart dissipated, a road to the underworld filled with wisps of smoke appeared before him.

Ye Ajin and the others, who had been watching the commotion at the Wen family's house, also appeared instantly. They seemed used to all of this, asking, "They're leaving already?"

Wenjie bowed to the spirits in gratitude, "Thank you all for your help these past few days. It's just a pity that I have nothing to repay you with right now. I will definitely repay this kindness in my next life."

Ye Ajin's expression was complicated. "Although nonsense is unreliable, promises are valid."

"Though I don't know when we'll have this opportunity, your promise is too weighty."

Wenjie smiled and said, "It's getting late, everyone. We'll meet again sometime."

The moment he stepped onto that road, he slowly drifted away until he disappeared from sight.

Seeing that most things had been settled, Hua Xiangyun clapped her hands and said, "That's a wrap now."

Ye Ajin: "How many siblings are there in the Wen family?"

"What else do you want?" Hua Xiangyun asked with a smile. "Other fathers have chosen to let go, but you're the one who can't get over it?"

“But they are so unfilial,” Ye Ajin still felt that such punishment was too lenient, only scaring them for a few nights before letting the matter drop.

Hua Xiangyun ignored him and turned to go home to cultivate, since someone would help him resolve his doubts anyway.

Fang Qinghe pulled Ye Ajin aside and said, "You mean you've wasted all these years?"

What do the three Wen siblings care about most? Now that they've all lost them, a shadow has been cast over their hearts. Their lives will certainly be difficult for the rest of their days; it's a long, drawn-out torment.

Ye Ajin, "..."

"This is the most complicated emotion. Old Man Wen seems extremely angry about his children's lack of filial piety, but these days he has still left room for maneuver in every aspect."

After all, he raised this child himself. How could the Wen family, with their roots in the family, possibly go to such extremes?

"Alright, all you've done for years is watch the show, you haven't used your brain at all."

Ye Ajin looked somewhat disappointed. "You know I've been an orphan since I was little, how would I know these things?"

Fang Qinghe, "..." This is hopeless...

The three Wen siblings sat in their room all night, too afraid to fall asleep, keeping their eyelids open and waiting quietly.

They breathed a sigh of relief when they heard the rooster crowing in the distance.

"It seems we did the right thing this time. Following Father's words, he saw our sincerity and shouldn't be angry with us anymore." Wenli guessed that she had overcome this hurdle.

Wen Tian resumed his elder brother's demeanor, "If that's really the case, then it's alright, and all our hard work won't have been in vain."

Alright, everyone hurry up and pack your things. We still have to go to work.

"But we can't carry all this stuff back at once," Wenqing thought to herself, feeling frustrated. This whole ordeal would mean having to ask for help again.

Wen Tian didn't want to deal with such a fool. "Just leave the things here. Anyway, once the yard is locked, no one will come in. I'll keep the key. If you want to come and move your things, we'll come together."

The three siblings opened the door while chatting and laughing, and were about to walk out when they were stunned by what they saw outside.

They had all their stuff here, so why does it feel empty now?

That was most of their savings. The three of them rushed out of the house and searched the entire courtyard, but the things seemed to have vanished into thin air.

Upon closer inspection, all the doors and windows were locked from the inside, especially the main door, which they had bolted shut.

"Where are the things? How come they're all gone?" Wenli's whole body went limp. Those were her savings for finding jobs and getting married for her children in the future.

The other two brothers also contributed generously, not only because of their own wealth, but also because they were short of money and had to borrow from others.

"We didn't sleep at all yesterday, and we didn't hear any noise outside." Wenli couldn't hold on any longer and sat down on the ground. "Father, are you not giving us a way to live?"

The Wen brothers had guessed that their father was behind it all, but the punishment was far too severe.

The combined sum of the three families is no small amount. How are we going to explain this to them when they go back?

The three of them went mad and went to Hua Xiangyun again, wanting to ask when Wu Chenxi would return, but were told that they didn't know.

The three of them didn't place all their hopes on this. As they ran out, they discussed finding a master to subdue Wenjie, who showed them no fatherly affection. Perhaps they could then retrieve the items.

In the days that followed, they did not return to the end of the county. Only their wives came back and hung a sign for sale at the door...

&

Hua Xiangyun stayed at the end of the county until the 15th, but Wu Chenxi did not show up. However, she could not stay there any longer because it was a festival, and Hua Zhian had come to pick her up.

She packed her things, knowing it would be several days before she could come back again.

"Little sister, is this all you have?" Hua Zhian took the small bag from her hand; it should contain just a change of clothes.

Hua Xiangyun said, "I'll come over again when I'm resting, so there's no need to bring it back and forth so much."

She turned around and locked the door. "Second brother, have you settled on a job yet?"

Hua Zhian looked at her with some guilt, "We haven't heard anything from Mom, so Grandma asked me to take over her job. I'll start working tomorrow."

Don't worry, if my family can't resolve your issue, I'll give you this job.

Hua Zhian used to think that the elders in his family were worrying too much, but after communicating with other educated youth during this period, he learned that many of them never returned to the production team after visiting their families this time.

It seems they were too naive back then. I wonder if the village committee noticed something, because they even sent a telegram to ask them why so many people chose to stay in the city at the same time.

He simply replied that he was taking over the position from his elders, and as for the others, they were probably just making similar excuses, which was what his grandfather had told him.

"It's nothing," Hua Xiangyun didn't think it was a big problem. Even if she went to the countryside, it would just be a change of scenery for her cultivation. "How has everyone been at home these days?"

Hua Zhian said, "Everything is fine." As for the things he was set up on blind dates with, he'd better not talk about them and embarrass himself.
