Zhao Xiaonian chuckled twice, met Jiang Yimian's suspicious gaze, and immediately waved his hand, saying, "I, I was just talking nonsense, just talking nonsense, I won't do it again."
He had no idea that Aunt Wang would suddenly appear; he was just making up a few things on the spot, and Aunt Wang happened to overhear him.
Who can I reason with?
Jiang Yimian narrowed her eyes, glanced at Zhao Xiaonian's particularly guilty look, and then looked at Song Er, signaling him to speak.
Song Er laughed and said, "This kid is talking nonsense. He said that Uncle Jiang is destined to have a benefactor, some kind of predestined relationship from a past life, which can help him spread his wings and soar to the sky."
Uncle Jiang was curious about who this important person was.
Unexpectedly, Aunt Wang overheard them and, in a fit of anger, mocked Uncle Jiang for his delusions, which led to Uncle Jiang being beaten.
That huge dark spot on my eye, I bet it's still there now.
He couldn't help but laugh when he thought about that day.
Zhao Xiaonian has basically wiped out everyone in the villa. All his fortune telling and palm reading are just nonsense. If someone manages to say a few words correctly, it's all just blind luck.
For some reason, Zhao Xiaonian suddenly set his sights on Jiang Dazhuang. He had just enthusiastically made up a few lies when Wang Fengqin, who had been traveling for several days, overheard him.
I had imagined that a reunion with loved ones would be a heartwarming scene of hugs and tears streaming down one's face.
Unexpectedly, when Wang Fengqin saw that Jiang Dazhuang believed Zhao Xiaonian's words, she was so angry that she punched him, leaving everyone stunned.
Little Nuan'er nodded like a chick pecking at rice and added, "That day, Mother was so fierce, she scared Little Nuan'er to death."
It took Father a lot of coaxing before Mother stopped being angry.
This was the first time she had ever seen her mother hit someone so fiercely.
Jiang Yimian was somewhat surprised, finding it hard to imagine Wang Fengqin's fierce and violent manner.
Wang Fengqin was always gentle with them, speaking softly and never being too fierce, except for one time when she treated Old Man Jiang and Granny Wu.
Thinking of the scene where Jiang Dazhuang was beaten by Wang Fengqin, she couldn't help but laugh. It seemed that the village had been quite lively while she was away.
Zhao Xiaonian became dissatisfied, her face full of grievance, "Brother Song, stop trying to harm me, I clearly calculated it very accurately for you."
"Was it me who found the antidote for you, Old Chen? I'm your savior! You're so ungrateful, you're kicking me when I've served my purpose!"
After saying that, he quickly slipped away, showing none of the self-righteousness he had displayed.
Upon hearing this, Song Er immediately cried out in pain, rolled up his sleeves, and started hitting Zhao Xiaonian. "You still dare to say that? If you hadn't hidden the antidote, would I have had to suffer for so many days?"
"I almost died from the pain! I'll teach you a lesson today!"
Jiang Yimian watched the two chasing each other, smiled, and took the two little ones to the courtyard where Jiang Dazhuang lived.
She encountered many people along the way, and everyone greeted her happily when they saw Jiang Yimian return, their eyes full of smiles.
Although they were still wearing the same clothes as before, everyone had a genuine smile on their face, radiating a vibrant energy that was infectious.
They no longer had the timid and obsequious demeanor of before, nor the constant fear of being the next person to be beaten to death by their master.
Everyone has adapted to life at the resort; it's busy yet fulfilling and peaceful.
Jiang Yimian nodded to everyone before leaving.
When they arrived at the courtyard where Jiang Dazhuang lived, they could hear Wang Fengqin's incessant chatter coming from inside the house.
"Look at you, how old are you? You know you have wounds, yet you still dare to get them wet. What if they get infected?"
"Fengqin, I just didn't mean to. Don't worry, I'm fine."
Look, it's almost done.
The couple spoke softly and in a very ordinary tone, but you could hear the care and affection between them, the quiet love they shared.
For some reason, Jiang Yimian suddenly thought of Lu Cijian. If he were here, he would probably be very happy, and he would also be healed by the conversation between the two people in the room.
Just then, Xiao Nuan'er and Xiao Ye entered the house with smiles on their faces.
"Mother, Father, Sister is back."
Upon hearing this, Wang Fengqin and her companion rushed out of the house and were overjoyed to see the people standing in the yard.
The girl wore a purple dress that made her skin appear even whiter, and her long, black hair, as black as a waterfall, was held in place by an elegant jade hairpin, making her look exceptionally beautiful.
She seems to have lost a lot of weight; she's clearly slimmed down.
Wang Fengqin quickly stepped forward, pulled Jiang Yimian around, and looked her over from left to right. After a while, she said with concern, "Why have you lost weight?"
"Your face looks so thin; you've lost so much weight in just over a month."
She had been worried about her daughter these past few days, and now that she had finally seen her, her worries only intensified.
She must have suffered a lot to lose so much weight.
She knew that when her heart ached, it was never a good thing.
Jiang Yimian felt a little helpless under Wang Fengqin's anxious gaze, and just held her hand and said, "I'm fine. I've lost weight because of traveling back and forth between the capital and here. How was your journey here?"
Wang Fengqin simply waved her hand and said with a smile, "What could possibly happen to us? With Xiao Wu and Xiao Hei here, nothing will happen."
"Oh, by the way, where's Cijian? Didn't she come back with you?"
If it weren't for Song Xiaowu, they probably wouldn't have been able to get to Pingjiang County so smoothly. They probably wouldn't even know the way here, let alone anything else.
She was thinking that she would thank Lu Cijian properly when he came back, but she never expected that he would not come back with her daughter.
Jiang Yimian was taken aback, then smiled and said, "He has something to do and can't get away."
Wang Fengqin then responded, "You must not have eaten since you came back so late. I'll go to the small kitchen and make you something to eat. Our family is finally reunited."
After saying that, she hurriedly went into the kitchen to get busy.
Seeing this, Jiang Dazhuang quickly followed and went in to help.
Before long, the two of them had prepared several simple home-style dishes, all of which were Jiang Yimian's and her two children's favorites.
Wang Fengqin and the others had already eaten dinner, but when they saw Jiang Yimian return, they were overjoyed and sat down to eat with her.
If Jiang Dazhuang hadn't still had a few deep wounds that hadn't fully healed, he would have definitely taken out the wine and drunk it all.
At this moment, the family was sitting quietly in the house eating a late-night snack, which made everyone feel a little dazed, as if they had returned to the time before everything happened.
Back then, although his family lived a life of hardship, they were very happy.
The children would be happy because of the extra dish that was added today, and they would also be modest with each other because of the small amount of meat.
Even though it was only a few years ago, Jiang Dazhuang felt that those memories were too distant for him.
He looked at the people in front of him, and his eyes silently reddened.
If Fengqin hadn't come this time, he wouldn't have known what Fengqin and the others had suffered in the village after he left.
