Chapter 379 I Don’t Hate Her
"Uncle, this is inappropriate."
Yingyan's heart was bleeding, and she didn't dare to look at Fan's father's sad eyes.
She never expected that not only would Fan's father not kill her, but he would also come to comfort and accept her.
"There's nothing inappropriate about it. Uncle held you in his arms a lot when you were little! If it weren't for fate, the Xia and Fan families would be as close as one family now."
"You don't have to rush into a decision, and don't feel pressured. Remember, the Fan family's door is always open to you."
"Okay." Yingyan burst into tears.
"Uncle, Yingyan swears that whether I am your daughter or not, I will definitely honor you on behalf of Sister Rong!"
"Okay, uncle will wait."
Fan Changfu walked away slowly with unsteady steps. This richest businessman in Daewoo Dynasty seemed to have aged ten years in an instant.
Fan Jie Qiang followed with red and swollen eyes, "Dad, have you really forgiven her?"
"What can I do if I don't forgive her?" Fan Changfu sighed. "She has lost the motivation to live. I can't watch the only bloodline of the Xia family disappear like this!"
Fan Changfu turned his head and looked at him. "But you! A beautiful woman of unknown origin approached you for no reason and secretly pledged her life to you, and you didn't even suspect anything? You're such a fool!"
Fan Jie Qiang was filled with remorse and burst into tears.
"What's the point of crying now?" Fan Changfu shook his head. "I let Yingyan become the daughter of the Fan family as punishment for you! I want you to remember forever how serious the consequences of being confused and unaware can be!"
"I know I was wrong!" Fan Jie Qiang's face was swollen from crying, and no one knew where the folding fan that he always held in his hand had gone.
"I heard that a temple has been built in Heihe City. Take your father there."
"Dad..." Fan Jie Qiang was so frightened that he forgot to cry, "Dad! It's true that I made a big mistake, but I don't want to be a monk!"
"Become a monk?"
Father Fan was stunned, then kicked him hard on the butt. "You reminded me! You are indeed suitable to become a monk! I just don't know if Zen Master Huineng would be willing to accept you, an idiot!"
In the end, Fan Changfu invited Zen Master Huineng and Master Hongkong to perform a ritual for Concubine Shu, hoping that she would ascend to heaven soon.
The Fan family was a wealthy family with many servants, so the villagers didn't need to help with Concubine Shu's funeral.
The Ye family took Xiao Jiuer home.
On the village road, the villagers would secretly glance at Xiaotuanzi from time to time. Seeing that she looked normal and was not affected by the death of Concubine Shu, they felt relieved.
"Xiao Jiuer! Wait a minute!"
Fan Jie Qiang rushed over with his father and brother, followed closely by a large group of people.
The villagers were shocked. Could it be that they were planning to compete with the Ye family for the custody of Xiao Jiuer?
The Ye family members looked wary.
Ye Yanping stood in front.
Luo Qiuyue's face was gloomy and she hugged Xiao Jiuer tightly.
The others surrounded Xiao Jiuer.
Fan Changfu was a portly man, and, besides, he lived a life of luxury, so he couldn't run at all. He was already out of breath when he came up to him.
"The Fan family... the head... led the clansmen... to thank the Ye family... for their great kindness!"
In full view of the crowd, Fan Changfu knelt down with his two sons and clansmen.
The villagers looked at each other in confusion; this was something they had not expected.
"Cough cough cough!" Luo Qiuyue's frosty expression instantly relaxed.
The three Ye Yanping brothers hurried to help them up.
Fan Changfu waved his hand and refused.
"My daughter abandoned Little Jiu'er back then and committed a grave sin. If it weren't for the kindness of the Ye family who raised Little Jiu'er, I'm afraid a catastrophic disaster would have ensued! Even if the entire Fan family died to atone for their sin, it wouldn't be enough to make up for the debt we owed to the people of the world!"
“The Ye family is the benefactor of the Fan family!”
"Benefactor, please accept Fan's greetings!"
Fan Changfu led the entire family to pay their respects to the Ye family.
Luo Qiuyue was most afraid of people who were too polite. When she was at a loss, she happened to see Zhao Xingjian standing aside watching the fun.
"Everyone, please stand up! Speaking of which, the person we should thank the most is Master Zhao Xingjian! It was Master Zhao who found little Jiuer in the carriage and raised her all the way to Xianchuan County!"
"No, no, no!" Zhao Xingjian waved his hands in panic.
But Fan changed direction and knelt down in front of him.
"Thank you, Master Zhao! Master Zhao, please accept Fan's greetings!"
Zhao Xingjian: “…”
Zhao Xingjian looked at Luo Qiuyue sadly.
The little dumpling was amused by his helpless expression.
With this smile, he found himself the focus.
"Xiao Jiuer!" Fan Changfu looked at her with tears in his eyes, his expression filled with guilt and fear.
"Oh!" Xiao Jiuer pretended to sigh deeply and crawled out of Luo Qiuyue's arms.
She walked straight to Fan Changfu on her bound feet.
Fan Changfu bent down and looked at Xiao Jiuer, wanting to touch that chubby little face, but he didn't dare to do it.
"Xiao Jiu'er, it's the Fan family who wronged you! They made you wander around outside right after you were born. Now Jingrong is dead. Can you forgive the Fan family?"
"It's none of your business!" Little Dumpling's face was full of sunshine.
Let’s put things one way or another. Fan Jingrong’s affairs have nothing to do with the Fan family.
Then she cutely waved her hands and said, "I don't hate her anymore!"
Xiao Jiuer has slowly forgotten the painful things in her previous life.
The memories of this life have been slowly coming back to me recently.
But these bad memories no longer cause any harm to Xiao Jiuer now.
Because she already has so much love that it is overflowing.
The love of the Ye family, the love of the villagers, the love of Black Eagle Village, the love of Zhou Huaining...
This love is enough for her to withstand the unpleasantness of the past.
"If it weren't for her, I, Xiaojiu, wouldn't be able to see Naobao, Grandma, Master, Daddy, Mommy, Uncle, Brother, and everyone else..."
Just a few simple words moved everyone to tears.
The villagers felt that Xiao Jiuer had spoken to their hearts.
For them, although Concubine Shu did something wrong, if it weren't for Concubine Shu, they probably would never have seen Xiao Jiuer in their lifetime.
"Look at this!" Fan Changfu couldn't help crying, "This is the child Jingrong gave birth to! He has the same personality as Jingrong when she was a child!"
The tribesmen nodded, "Yes! It's a thousand times better than that scourge in the palace!"
Fan Changfu wiped away his tears, rummaged in his arms, and took out a bunch of keys with a jingle, and handed them to Xiaotuanzi.
"Xiao Jiuer, this is given to you by the Fan family!"
Little Jiuer blinked her big watery eyes and curiously tapped her chin with her finger, "Are you unlocking the lock? Yes, I don't have a lock!"
Fan Changfu was so adorable by the little dumpling that his heart almost melted. He said lovingly, "Baby, these keys are for you to unlock the locks! The locks to unlock the treasure house!"
"Treasure house?" Little Dumpling's eyes immediately lit up.
Fan Changfu nodded and whispered, "The bigger the Fan family's business grows, the more they understand the principle that a tall tree attracts the wind. Furthermore, serving a king is like serving a tiger. Over the years, the Fan family has quietly built treasure houses all over the country to prepare for emergencies."
"This bunch of keys of yours can open the doors of ten treasure houses."
The little dumpling's mouth opened into an O shape.
