Gu Qian clearly remembered that Xiao Ran had come looking for him earlier, but as soon as he came out, she disappeared without a trace.
There were only two junior brothers around him.
"Brother, come and catch me, come and catch me..."
"My brother is cheating..."
Soon, this harmonious scene between Gu Qian and Tang Yi was shattered by Tang Yi's arrival...
As Qiu Yan and Ling Qi and Ling Ba entered the courtyard, a delicious aroma of meat wafted towards them.
In the courtyard, Gu Xiaoran was already eating a chicken leg with great relish.
"Second Uncle, what delicious food are you making? It smells so good!" Qiu Yan asked, handing the child to Ling Qi.
Upon entering the kitchen, all they saw was Qiu Dazhi.
At that moment, he was busy stewing meat in the kitchen.
“Xiao Yan, your second uncle just went out. He said there wasn’t enough meat, so he went to Brother Li’s ranch.”
"Hmm, oh." Qiu Yan stared at Qiu Dazhi's eyes and brows for a moment, then nodded slightly.
She had forgotten that she had this fourth uncle when Qiu Dazhi didn't come.
When did you arrive?
"I...I'll leave in a bit." Qiu Dazhi lowered his head, his hands seemingly unsure of what to do.
Qiu Yan noticed that Qiu Dazhi was reserved.
"Since you're back for the New Year, why don't you stay here?"
She remembered that Qiu Dazhi seemed to have spent the Spring Festival at his aunt Bai Yang's house last year.
"Xiao Yan, aren't you going to kick me out?" Qiu Dazhi thought of Qiu Yan's past attitude towards him, which is why he had this thought.
Qiu Yan shook her head, "If I were to drive you away, my second uncle wouldn't agree either."
Now that Yang is gone, and Qiu Dazhi is not entirely wicked, it is good that he has reformed himself.
"Xiaoyan, why are you only coming back now?" Jiang Liu heard the voice and came out with a smile.
Her eldest niece really never stops. "Miss Song Jiao said she wanted to see you and just left."
“I’ve seen her,” Qiu Yan said with a smile. “Second Aunt, I was delayed for a while in Huaiyuan and Baiyang.”
As soon as she finished speaking, Jiang Liu pulled her into the room.
"Second Aunt, what's wrong?" Qiu Yan asked, puzzled.
Jiang Liu looked at Qiu Yan with some concern:
"Xiaoyan, have you thought this through? Marriage is no child's play. That Gu Qian..."
"He'll be alright," Qiu Yan said firmly.
"What if something happens?" Jiang Liu was genuinely concerned for Qiu Yan.
"Even if something unexpected happens, I will still marry him." Qiu Yan's firm statement made Jiang Liu sigh softly.
Xiaoyan went ahead without hesitation; hadn't she already thought of that?
"Our Xiaoyan is really loyal and devoted."
After coming out of the house, Qiu Yan wanted to see Gu Qian. She hadn't seen him all day and wondered what his situation was like when he got home.
However, upon hearing Tang Yi's voice coming from the Li family's courtyard, she did not go.
She looked at Gu Xiaoran.
"Yu'er, why don't you go to your master's house?"
Gu Xiaoran kept shaking her little head.
"I'm not going! That's Uncle's house." He said firmly, his little body still backing away, while he was still gnawing on a chicken leg.
Qiu Yan: "Why?" When the little brat wasn't back, didn't he say he missed his master? Why is he so resistant now?
"That's your home too."
“This isn’t my home, this is my home. Uncle is bullying me. Mom, look…” Gu Xiaoran said, showing her wrist, which had just been scratched red.
As soon as he returned today, he went to look for his father, but before he could even see his father, he was kicked out of the hospital less than a moment after he was admitted.
"Why didn't you dodge?" Qiu Yan frowned slightly as she looked at Gu Xiaoran's red and bloodied wrist.
After saying that, she took out the ointment and applied it evenly to Gu Xiaoran's wrist, which had been scratched red.
