She raised her arm and began to shoo people away.
"Why are you looking for that little brat? Go away, go away. That unfilial son Qiu Dafu is long dead out there. He doesn't deserve a woman like you, girl. Don't be fooled by his appearance."
Standing to the side, Madam Qian smiled contemptuously: "Mother, look at what you're saying. Second Uncle was just working outside; he didn't die out there."
Yang: "This is none of your business. If the eldest daughter-in-law doesn't cook, are you going to let your mother starve to death too?"
Throughout the entire process, Guo remained silent and continued washing clothes.
Even through the air, Jiang Liu could feel the intense oppression and resentment emanating from her.
Jiang Liu was pushed out of the courtyard by Yang Shi.
Immediately following, the sound of footsteps caught her attention.
She looked towards the source of the sound and saw a four-year-old girl running towards her.
"Big sister, who are you looking for?"
"Qiu Yan, I'm looking for Qiu Yan. Little sister, do you know where she is?"
"I am Qiu Yan, big sister, but I don't think I know you."
"Are you Qiu Yan?" Jiang Liu carefully examined the girl in front of her.
Through the childlike features, she confirmed that the girl in front of her was Qiu Yan.
Her small face and hands were covered in grime; there wasn't a single clean spot on her body.
She couldn't imagine that such a girl would grow up to do such things.
If you do the math, she's a full twelve years older than Qiu Yan.
Now, she has returned to the age of sixteen, while Qiu Yan is only four years old.
She then realized that she was so much older than Qiu Yan.
"Where is your second uncle?" Jiang Liu couldn't wait to see what Qiu Dafu looked like twelve years ago.
"I don't know." Xiao Qiuyan shook her head. "Do you know my second uncle?"
"Uh... I don't know them." Jiang Liu really wanted to help Qiu Yan and her daughter.
Give her the money; Qiu Yan is too young and can't hold onto her wealth.
"Come on, let me take you to eat something delicious."
“No, I don’t know you.” Qiu Yan refused to follow Jiang Liu. “I want my mother.”
Jiang Liu had no choice but to leave alone in silence.
Stranded in Lingnan Village, she didn't know where to go, and unknowingly, she headed towards the back mountain.
The mountains and forests that Qiu Dafu once took her to hold many memories for them.
God knows how much she wanted to see Qiu Dafu at that moment.
Actually, she had originally planned to stay at Baiyang Inn, but after thinking about it, she decided against it.
She rode her horse slowly through the mountains and forests.
When they were hungry, they would eat some wild fruits from the trees; when they were thirsty, they would drink some mountain spring water.
As she walked, she arrived at Qingyun at dusk.
That evening, she checked into Qingyun Inn, had a good meal, and then took a nice hot bath.
Qiu Dafu, where are you?
Wanting to help the pitiful Qiu Yan and her daughter, and also wanting to create a chance encounter with Qiu Dafu, she often went to the Lingnan villages.
Through these back-and-forth interactions, she and Qiu Yan became quite familiar with each other.
I originally intended to buy Qiu Yan two beautiful outfits in Qiu Dafu's name, but then I thought, clothes are not as good as good food.
If Qiu Yan suddenly gets new clothes, they will definitely be snatched away by her cousin Qiu Huihui.
That day, she took Qiu Yan to the stream, washed her up, and then disguised herself and took Qiu Yan to Baiyang Noodle Shop for a delicious meal.
With some free time, Jiang Liu spent all her days thinking about finding Qiu Dafu and rekindling their past romance.
But fate had other plans.
Soon, Tang Yi learned of her whereabouts.
Dawn, Inn
A series of rapid, forceful knocks on the door startled her from her sleep.
"Liu'er, open the door."
It's Tang Yi who's here.
