Guan Yuqin didn't hear a single word. Her expression was gloomy, like the helplessness of someone who had lived a life of lies and then woken up.
"Send the young lady, the young master, and the young lady to rest," General Guan instructed again.
Guan Yuqin took two steps, then turned back to look at Qiao Yunni.
"I'm sorry, I really didn't know he had a wife and children. If I had known, I definitely wouldn't have hurt you. Although I'm not a very virtuous person, I can't do something so despicable."
“Miss Guan, the fault lies with Song Yuanyi, it has nothing to do with you,” Qiao Yunni said.
“I didn’t want to bother your family of four, but Song Yuanyi is trying to drive the Qiao family to their deaths, so I had no choice.”
Guan Yuqin gently shook her head: "No, you should tell me, let me see Song Yuanyi's true colors, otherwise I will be in a very miserable state in the future, and my two children may not have a good end either."
“Father, since you have no sons, I will carry on your ambition and set an example for our two children.”
She had originally planned to find a good son-in-law to inherit her military power and provide her with a lifelong support, but instead she attracted a heartless ingrate.
She believed that once her father died, Song Laosan would abandon his mother and keep his son, then marry a beautiful woman or someone who could further help his career.
General Guan looked shocked: "You have trained for many years and led troops into battle, making merits and already qualified as a captain. But you said that you wanted to find a man to love you and protect you, so that you could live a happy and carefree life."
"Now you—"
"Now I understand. Relying on anyone else is not as good as relying on yourself. You are your own support. What can protect you is not others, but your own strength."
“Father, so what if you only have me as your daughter? Your mantle will not be broken.”
Guan Yuqin seemed to have gained a lot of strength. Holding a child in each hand, she walked towards the main camp.
The two children were crying, but seeing their mother's firmness and the powerful aura she exuded, they stopped crying.
The gloom on General Guan's face dissipated considerably. What was Song Laosan compared to him? He saw through Song Laosan, but his daughter stood up in surprise. He could say he had gained something.
Moreover, although Old Man Song was morally corrupt, he was handsome and tall, and he had a pair of good-looking grandchildren.
Thinking about these things, General Guan's heart was no longer so heavy.
Qiao Lian'er felt only regret. If Song Laosan hadn't died, General Guan probably wouldn't have killed him.
After all, she had to take care of her grandson.
She asked, "Then how will General Guan punish Song Laosan?"
General Guan said, "I won't let him be a captain. Since he wants to be a superior person, I'll let him taste the pain of being bullied when he's in a lower position."
Perhaps for Song Laosan, this was the most terrifying thing.
General Guan's personal guard came out of the main camp, carrying a box.
General Guan took it and solemnly handed it to Qiao Lian'er.
“It was my fault for misjudging people. Song Yuanyi has let you and your children down and now he almost endangered your lives. This is my way of making amends.”
Qiao Lian'er shook her head: "There's no need for compensation. I just hope that our Qiao family can live peacefully from now on."
“Take this child. I will not let Song Yuanyi harm your Qiao family again, but I still want to do my part to make amends for the damage that has already been done, otherwise I will feel guilty.”
Qiao Lian'er held it in both hands; it was so heavy that she almost couldn't hold it steady.
General Guan then had his deputy escort them to the door.
"May you have a safe journey."
After everything that had just happened, everyone needed to calm down. Qiao Lian'er called Da Hong over and led it slowly back home.
Halfway there, she opened the box.
