For the past two days, Xiao Yunying and Luo Sheng have been in a state of semi-cold war.
It's impossible for Luo Sheng to lower his stance first.
Xiao Yunying was also too embarrassed to admit it.
Normally, Xiao Yunying would never ignore Luo Sheng if he had any questions.
She answered the questions she was supposed to, but the atmosphere between the two remained somewhat strange.
It wasn't as good as the day Luo Sheng first came back.
When the Luo family children returned home that night, they noticed the strange atmosphere.
They didn't ask Luo Sheng, and knew that Xiao Yunying wouldn't tell them either, so they asked Zheng Yunwan instead.
But Zheng Yunwan didn't know that when she took Wan Jun and the others to find a place to stay.
In the end, Luo Xin secretly told her brothers, describing in words and gestures how their mother and father had argued.
Luo Li listened and held the dog so tightly she didn't move.
After saying that, Luo Xin looked at her eldest and second brothers with pleading eyes: "Xin'er doesn't want Mother to be unhappy, but Xin'er also doesn't want to leave Mother. Eldest brother, second brother, can you think of a way?"
As for Luo Li, her third brother, Xin'er felt that he was similar to herself and couldn't think of any good solutions, so she didn't ask.
This problem is difficult to solve.
Luo Yang only thought he should think of a way to keep Luo Xin calm first.
That morning, Xiao Yunying wanted to wait for the carriage that was taking the children back to town.
She sat on the swing in the yard, tiptoeing and gently swinging, thinking about what she needed to do in the city later.
The main thing was to ask Chen Yuancheng to help find out when Liu Ge and the others would be sentenced and how severe their sentences would be.
If possible, she would be willing to spend some money to get them to sentence her to a heavier sentence.
When she heard the sound of the carriage, she slowly got up and opened the gate.
Upon seeing the carriage outside, he exclaimed in surprise, "Ling Qi, what brings you here?"
Before Ling Qi could reply, Chen Yuanxuan lifted the curtain and poked his head out, saying, "Sister Yunying, I'm here too."
Xiao Yunying walked over with a smile: "Young Master Chen, are you feeling much better?"
Chen Yuanxuan couldn't wait to get off the carriage first: "I'm fully recovered, but my grandmother wouldn't let me go out. She kept me in the mansion for a few more days. My elder brother pleaded for me before she finally let me out."
Xiao Yunying smiled and said, "Your grandmother is also worried about your health. This loss and illness must have frightened your grandmother quite a bit."
Chen Yuanxuan smiled sheepishly: "Speaking of which, I really owe it to Sister Yunying, who saved my life."
Xiao Yunying joked with him, "So what thank-you gift did you prepare for me this time?"
"I've prepared so much, Lingqi, hurry up and help Sister Yunying carry it down."
Ling Qi responded and went to the back of the carriage to bring down two small boxes.
What's inside?
Chen Yuancheng then had a chance to speak: "In retrospect, you have saved our Chen family twice. This gift of gratitude was prepared by my grandmother. According to my grandmother, the gift should not be light, and the sentiment should be heavy as well."
Xiao Yunying bluntly said, "Even if you give me something flashy but impractical, I won't need it."
Chen Yuancheng said meaningfully, "Don't worry, my grandmother said that you will definitely be able to use all these things."
"Alright, where's Yuan Yao? Why didn't she come with you?"
"My second sister is going to attend the flower viewing party for the young ladies of the prefecture, so my mother has kept her at home practicing her piano skills."
Chen Yuanxuan said, "Let's go inside and talk. I miss Xin'er. Lingqi, hurry up and move the things inside."
As he spoke, he ran into the yard.
"Xin'er, Xin'er, I'm coming..."
Chen Yuanxuan stopped abruptly, looking at the strange man standing in the courtyard.
This person was clearly not from an ordinary farming family, and certainly not a newly purchased servant.
Zheng Yunwan and Luo Xin heard the noise and came out.
Luo Xin said happily, "Yuan Xuan, you're here! How are you? Are you feeling better from your cold?"
"It's all better now."
Chen Yuanxuan pulled Luo Xin a few steps to the side and asked in what he thought was a low voice, "Xin'er, who is this?"
Xin'er glanced at Luo Sheng and said, "I don't really know him either. My mother and brothers told me that he is my father."
Luo Sheng: ...
Chen Yuanxuan was shocked by this: "I thought your father was dead. He's still alive?"
"Actually, I also thought my father was early..."
"Yuanxuan, you mustn't speak nonsense."
Before Luo Xin could finish speaking, Chen Yuancheng's reprimanding voice came from the doorway.
He entered the courtyard and said to Luo Sheng, "Young Master Luo, I am young and hope you will forgive me if I have been impolite."
Luo Sheng: "...It's alright."
He wouldn't hold a grudge against a child, after all... even Luo Xin almost said those things.
Luo Sheng looked at the man before him and asked, "May I ask which family's young master you are, and what brings you here?"
Just as Xiao Yunying was about to introduce herself, Chen Yuancheng spoke up before she could: "I am Yunying's business partner."
And then that was it.
Luo Sheng knew this person.
In the past two days, he sent Wei Xun to the city to find out the outcome of the incident a few days ago. Wei Xun also inquired about everything he could find out, and together with what he already knew, he told Luo Sheng.
Ling Qi lifted the two boxes up a bit.
The two boxes weren't too heavy for him, but if he stayed in one position for too long, the boxes would slip slightly and slip out of his hands.
Xiao Yunying noticed his movements: "Let's all go inside and talk. Ling Qi, can you help me move my things into the house?"
Upon hearing this, apart from the two children, several adults simultaneously frowned almost imperceptibly.
Zheng Yunwan said, "Young Master Ling Qi, come with me."
With someone leading the way, Ling Qi didn't say anything and followed along.
