But there are some things they need to face, and they need to muster their courage.
Guan Song raised his head, his face showing a hint of determination.
"Since it is Father's fault, then Father must bear the consequences. This is a principle that Grandpa and Mother taught us since we were young: people must be responsible for what they say and do."
He opened his arms and hugged Guan Yuqin.
"Mother has suffered a lot of injustices. Mother, don't be afraid. Song'er is growing up and will protect you and your sister."
He couldn't wait to grow up and become an adult so he could protect his family from the wind and rain.
Guan Xue was only four years old, and she was so cute and innocent. She imitated her older brother and hugged her mother.
In an instant, Guan Yuqin almost burst into tears.
She took a deep breath to suppress the tears, her face filled with relief.
With these two children, I have no regrets in this life.
Lu Sheng went to Qiao Lian'er to report.
"Miss Lian'er, Granny Song, and the Shen and Chen families have been taken away by the people from the camp."
Qiao Lian'er nodded. She had seen what had just happened. Old Mrs. Song had brought her two daughters-in-law to make things difficult for Guan Yuqin. How could she, a female general, put on airs?
She summoned some of her brother's men and told them to wait and see, not to let the mother and her two children suffer any injustice. But Guan Yuqin was already prepared.
Old Mrs. Song and her group have really messed up this time.
I wonder what it will be like when we leave the camp.
When Guan Yuqin turned around from the artificial hill, she had returned to normal, with a faint smile on her face, and her two children were following her around lively.
The banquet began, and the food and drinks were laid out.
Because the housewarming party and the wedding were held together, the dishes were very plentiful.
There were eight meat dishes and four vegetable dishes. The meat dishes included cumin-roasted lamb leg, braised chicken with chestnuts, braised pork belly, stewed pig's trotters with green beans, braised prawns, double-pepper rabbit, and stewed goose with radish. The vegetable dishes included dry-pot potato slices, scrambled eggs with tomatoes, Mapo tofu, and kelp and tofu soup.
Of course, many of the ingredients were obtained by Qiao Lian'er from her spatial storage.
The villagers from other villages left satisfied after watching the wedding ceremony, and those who brought gifts didn't even eat.
Even if we were to share in some good fortune, the Qiao family rose to prominence in a short period of time, became famous throughout the surrounding villages, and had a lucky baby.
Therefore, the courtyard was not crowded, and enough tables and chairs were prepared in advance, so everyone who came had a place to sit.
Seeing the mouthwatering dishes, the guests' eyes lit up. The Qiao family was truly generous, not caring about the cost at all, just wanting everyone to have a good time.
Many people are even reflecting that although they gave a little more money as a gift, they still gave too little.
On the bright red firecracker covers, tables were set up for lively banquets, where guests chatted and laughed, drinking heartily.
With so much grain taken away, every household was tightening their belts, with some large families even subsisting on porridge. This large table of dishes was plentiful, generous in portion, and delicious in color, aroma, and taste, making it a very enjoyable meal.
Hearing a child cry, the adults quickly asked what was wrong and found out that the child was crying because of something delicious, which caused another burst of laughter.
The Song family was unaware that Old Lady Song and the others had been taken away; they were preoccupied with stuffing food into their mouths, eating rudely like starving ghosts reincarnated.
Song Dahua had a chicken leg in her left hand, a spare rib in her right, and mutton stuffed in her mouth.
Song Xiaoming spread his arms and pulled the plates and bowls forward.
Song Lao Er buried his head in his food, his face and hair covered in oil.
There were ten people at the table. Seven of them were from the Song family, and the other three were from the same village. They all frowned in disgust at the way the Song family ate.
They each carried their bowls and went to find others to share a table with.
The portion is too large; adding another person wouldn't be a problem.
Suddenly, Song Dahua stopped moving, her expression froze, her eyes widened, and her body fell straight backward.
