Chapter 980 Yin Family
As soon as Yin Huo entered the house, the Yin family, who had heard the news in advance, rushed out to greet him. The eldest sister Yin, who had not yet had time to return to her husband's house, grabbed Yin Huo and asked with concern, "What's going on? I heard from the servants that you were kidnapped?"
"Are you okay, little brother? Are you hurt? Someone, go get Doctor Tan."
"Let's go back to the house and lie down first..."
"Who is so audacious? Take this notice to the county government office and arrest the person and question him..."
"Grandma burst into tears when she heard about this. Let me go and see her first..."
Everyone was talking at once, while Yin Huo stood silently in the middle, letting them grab, pull, and touch him. Seeing that his second sister had indeed asked the steward to take the notice to the government office, he finally said, "It wasn't a kidnapping. I came back in a classmate's car."
But no one listened to Yin Huo. Sister Yin took his hand and said, "Don't make amends for these evil people. Did they threaten you again in private? Did they scold you or bully you?"
"No, we..." Yin Huo paused and said, "We are friends."
Sister Yin looked at him with pity, patted his head, and then turned to face the group of servants with an even angrier expression, "What's the point of raising you? You can't even take care of your master..."
Upon hearing this, Yin Huo pursed his lips tightly and pulled his hand away from his eldest sister's. Seeing them gathered together and talking about how to get justice for him, he turned and left.
Sister Yin didn't care and repeatedly ordered her servant to follow and make sure to serve the person well.
Yin Huo returned to his study with his basket of books and sat there thinking for a long time. The servants beside him did not dare to rush him. They just walked back and forth beside him and whispered, "Master, the doctor is here and is waiting outside."
Yin Huo lowered his eyes and thought for a long time, then asked, "Who is with Grandmother?"
"The young ladies are talking in front. The old lady just took her medicine and is resting now."
Yin Huo stood up and went out. The servants quickly took his cloak and followed him. "Master, the sun is setting outside. You can't go out and get caught in the wind..."
Yin Huo walked quickly to the old lady's yard. Because he walked so fast, he couldn't breathe evenly and started coughing violently.
His whole face turned red from coughing, and the servants in the old lady's yard gathered around him anxiously. Yin Huo pushed them away lightly and walked quickly into the house.
Old Madam Yin had been awakened. Seeing Yin Huo coughing as he walked, she couldn't help but reach out to him, pulling him to her side and patting his back. "Why are you in such a hurry? It's almost dark now. You should rest in the house."
Yin Huo raised his eyes and whispered, "Grandma, I have something to tell you."
Old Madam Yin glanced at the servants around her, and the servants bowed and saluted, then filed out.
Old Lady Yin gently patted Yin Huo's back and asked softly, "Do you have anything to say to Grandmother?"
"Grandma, my second sister just sent someone to take the invitation from home. The one who sent me back today was a classmate. It wasn't some kidnapping as they said."
Old Madam Yin was startled. She looked at her grandson carefully and asked carefully, "Are they your friends?"
Yin or nodded.
Madam Yin carefully observed Yin Huo's expression. After a moment, she nodded and said with a smile, "Okay, Grandmother, I understand. Don't worry about it. I didn't know about what happened yesterday. I only heard from your sisters today that you were bullied in class."
"No," Yin Huo said, "The teacher asked me a question and I answered it, but Bai Shan had a different opinion and refuted it. I was a little dissatisfied, so I refuted it again. But I couldn't refute him, and I got anxious, so people misunderstood me."
Madam Yin laughed and said, "What's so difficult?"
Just as Yin Huo was about to speak, a series of footsteps were heard from outside. Before anyone arrived, a voice came in from outside, "Grandma, my younger brother is here to see you?"
As soon as the words were spoken, Sister Yin arrived with a group of younger sisters. Seeing Yin Huo sitting next to Old Madam Yin, she cried out, "Little brother, Grandma is just getting better now. You can't sit too close..."
Madam Yin came back to her senses, nodded quickly, and gently nudged Yin Huo, saying, "Yes, yes, please don't let my sickness get to you. You're weak, you can't afford to get sick. Come, quickly send the young master back to the courtyard and ask the kitchen to make him some easily digestible food..."
Yin Huo was pulled up by the elder and second sisters Yin, and couldn't help but shout, "Grandma..."
Madam Yin smiled and waved her hand, saying, "I know, I know. Just go back. I'll have someone send you something in a bit. Don't read too late tonight."
Yin Huo then agreed and followed the help of his two sisters to go out. As soon as he left, the servants in the yard rushed into the house to serve everyone.
Yin Huo stopped and said to his two sisters, "Eldest sister, Second sister, it's getting late. You should go home quickly. I don't need to see you off."
"Let's send you back to the yard. We're worried about your health."
"Brother-in-law is still waiting for you at home."
"They have servants to serve them, so there is no need for us to do anything. You are more important." He insisted on sending Yin Huo back to the yard.
Yin Huo returned to his own courtyard. The sky gradually darkened and half of the mansion slowly became quiet. Even the lanterns that had just been lit were dim. Only occasional sounds could be heard from the main courtyard.
Yin Huo sat in the room, picked up a random book, and held it in his hands. He felt a little worried. He didn't know what was going on outside, and whether his grandmother had asked someone to take the post back...
The world outside, however, was just beginning to bustle. Lanterns were lit in the shops lining the streets, and the entire inner city was illuminated in the night. The officer in the black uniform was only halfway there when he was overtaken by another officer in the black uniform. He held a handwritten letter in his hand and said, "The master told us to go back. We won't arrest anyone."
"Not arresting again? Whose order is this?"
"Whose else could it be? Lord Yin's family."
"What do you mean, a fight broke out in our own family? Who should we listen to?"
"One is the Yin family's great-aunt, and the other is the Yin family's old lady. Who told you that? Go back now. Isn't it better to avoid trouble?" The officer said, "I did some research, and these people are not that easy to arrest. Two are students of the Imperial College, and one is a doctor at Jishitang. The latter is fine, but the former, if we arrest students of the Imperial College, even if they have no power now, who will decide their future?"
"Damn it! These powerful people are just bored and have nothing better to do. One moment they want to arrest us, and the next moment they don't. They're just playing with us."
"Alright, alright, if you're not happy about having to make one less trip, go back to the yamen and close the case. I'll treat you to a drink later."
The next update will be around 2:00 PM
