Qiao Qingqing was indeed surprised by the appearance of Liu Mei and Qiao He.
However, times have changed. Now that she has become a grandmother, she no longer has the bloodiness of her youth and her mentality is very peaceful.
Especially when he learned that Qiao He and Liu Mei had come specially to attend the old man's funeral, he was very grateful.
That night, Qiao Qingqing hosted a banquet for the two of them.
"Thank you for taking the trouble to come here from a long distance. I haven't seen you for these years. Are you doing well?"
The dinner party was very lively. Although Lu Heng was not a big shot, his children and grandchildren totaled a large number of people.
Qiao He had not expected that she would entertain him and his family so grandly, and he was actually a little flattered.
"No, no, it's nothing. Mom said that Mr. Lu's family loves you so much. If there is anything going on in the Lu family, as long as she can walk, she will come..."
Having said that, Qiao He took a deep breath.
Then he stood up, raised his glass to her with both hands, and said solemnly: "Besides, I should be the one to say thank you. When I contracted the breeding farm, it was you who asked Zhou Jianbin from the fishing village to give me 5,000 yuan to help me through the most difficult years..."
"Later, it was also because of your secret care that my farm received so much business. Although you have never shown up, those customers told me that they learned from you that I have high-quality abalone and oysters..."
Qiao He choked up. He had thought about what he would say when he saw her countless times before coming here, but when the day finally came, he still couldn't control his emotions.
What kind of emotion is this?
The two were siblings, but due to some coincidences and a moment of confusion, they became strangers.
But even though they had no connection anymore, she never forgot her parents and herself.
Perhaps it was because, back then, only he and his relatives repented and begged for her forgiveness, so even though she said such heartless words, she still helped him so much.
Compared to those who only say nice things but don't actually give anything in return, people like this are truly kind, with a sharp tongue but a soft heart.
Qiao Qingqing watched this scene quietly.
She didn't say much, just raised her glass in response.
She couldn't remember how many people she had helped over the years.
But those people were the ones who had helped her before.
For example, the villagers in the fishing village all lived a prosperous life with the help of Qiao Qingqing and the Lu family.
As for Qiao He...
Qiao Qingqing couldn't help but think of the day many years ago when she took the children to play by the river.
A young man was hiding behind a tree and secretly watching her interacting with the children. He thought he was hiding well, but in fact she had already discovered him.
That day, she greeted Qiao He because she saw a very gentle and doting look on Qiao He's face when he looked at her child.
At that moment, Qiao Qingqing realized very clearly that the young man in front of her... and her child were relatives with the same blood.
That's about it, so when she later learned that Qiao He wanted to contract the sea field, she became a little interested.
After all, Li Liumei lives with Qiao He for the rest of her life. If Qiao He lives well, Li Liumei's later years will also be better.
More importantly, time erases a lot of hatred.
She had already become strong, and the long experiences in this life overshadowed those in the past, so naturally she didn't care about those past events.
Qiao He and Liu Mei stayed in Kyoto for ten days.
During the ten days, Qiao Qingqing arranged for someone to take care of their food, clothing, housing and transportation.
After taking care of the old man's funeral, Qiao Qingqing also took two days to take them around the capital, which made their trip worthwhile.
It was not until the night before they were leaving that Liu Mei begged her to stay and told her in writing that she wanted to talk to her.
Looking at the old woman with white hair and wrinkles all over her face in front of her, Qiao Qingqing felt a little dazed.
Then she agreed to Liu Mei's request.
That night, Qiao Qingqing and her relatives lived under the same roof for the first time in their two lifetimes.
Liu Mei's handwriting is crooked, and for some slightly complicated characters, she has to use pinyin instead.
But, wasn't it just for today that she asked Qiao He to teach her for decades?
