But thinking about it, given Nian'er's personality, she would probably do the same thing even if she didn't go to Mu'an Village.

If anyone's to blame, it's her mother, who carries the genes for restlessness.

well.

When Nian'er woke up, she saw her mother looking at her tenderly.

"Mother~~" Nian'er hugged Su Ruojin's neck tightly. "Mother, Nian'er knows she was wrong and will never do it again."

"Where did you go wrong?" Su Ruojin asked.

"It was Nian'er's fault for only thinking about her own momentary whim and making everyone worry," Nian'er said softly, her voice choked with emotion.

She thought that if she kept sending messages to her mother to let her know she was safe, her mother wouldn't worry.

During the hour she knelt on the deck, looking at the older brother kneeling beside her, Nian'er understood.

In this life, we cannot live selfishly for ourselves; we must also think more about those who care for and love us.

During her time away, her father, mother, grandmother, great-grandmother, maternal grandmother, uncles, aunts, and even this older brother she had only recently met, all cared about her and worried about her.

She was really wrong.

Su Ruojin hugged Nian'er with some relief and said softly, "Nian'er, whether in the capital or Mu'an Village, your father, uncles, and grandmasters are protecting you, which makes you feel that you are safe wherever you are."

But there are many bad people in this world that you can't see, and they won't let you off just because you're young.

Because you are young, they may even think you are easier to bully and become even more aggressive towards you.

Since you ran away, your grandmother and maternal grandmother haven't been able to sleep well night after night. Everyone is worried about you. Your five great masters even left Mu'an Village to search for you everywhere.

It's a blessing that so many people care about you, but we can't be selfish. We can't hurt those who care about us because of our own willfulness, understand?

Nian'er nodded. "Mother, I understand. I will never let Father, Mother, Grandmother, Uncle, and Grand Tutor worry about me again. When we get back, I will apologize to them."

After saying that, Nian'er said somewhat timidly, "Mother, then please send Nian'er back to Great Chu later."

After saying that, Nian'er lowered her head, her little shoulders trembling slightly, clearly she was crying.

Although Nian'er understood the reasoning her mother was giving, she was still just a child and naturally wanted to stay by her father and mother's side.

She didn't want to return to the Great Chu, but she now knew she was still young and couldn't be a burden to her father and mother.

Seeing the girl like this, Su Ruojin smiled and gently stroked Nian'er's head, "Didn't Nian'er want to see the sea? Mother will take you to see the sea."

Upon hearing Su Ruojin's words, Nian'er suddenly raised her head, her still red eyes sparkling, somewhat incredulous, "Mother, really? You're not sending Nian'er back?"

Su Ruojin nodded, "It's true, when has your mother ever lied to you?"

Nian'er then believed that she didn't have to return to Da Chu and could stay by her father and mother's side forever.

"That's wonderful, that's wonderful, thank you, Mother. Mother, you are the best mother in the world." Nian'er hugged Su Ruojin tightly again and kissed her on the cheek.

“However, you must promise your mother that you will be obedient and will not be willful anymore,” Su Ruojin emphasized again.

"Don't worry, Mother, Nian'er will definitely be obedient. Let's pinky swear." After saying that, Nian'er stretched out her little finger and pinky swear with Su Ruojin.

"Mother, I want to go tell Father that I can stay." Nian'er immediately wanted to get out of bed to find her father, but Su Ruojin stopped her.

“Nian’er, you need to apologize to someone right now,” Su Ruojin reminded her.

Nian'er immediately realized what was happening, "Mother, I'll go apologize to my older brother right away."

She took advantage of Wu Yushan's kindness during this period, deceiving him into bringing her to Beixu, and she really needs to apologize to Wu Yushan.

Meanwhile, Wu Yushan was having tea with Xiao Yanchu and the others in the cabin.

“Young Master Lin, thank you for taking care of my daughter during this time. If you have any requests, please feel free to make them. As long as it is within my ability, I will certainly not refuse,” Xiao Yanchu said.

Wu Yushan looked at Xiao Yanchu and pondered for a while. He did have a request. Before he could speak, he heard someone calling him from the doorway.
