After everyone discussed what to do tomorrow, Han Yixian drove his mother and the other two back to Liujiatun and told them to pack their things.
He Yuhan stayed home to tidy up.
Looking at the dilapidated things in his mother's house, Han Yixian felt heartbroken for his mother who had lived in such difficult circumstances for so many years.
He looked around the room and said, "Mom, Uncle, don't bother with the old things in your house. They have everything over there. We can just get new things when we build a new house later."
Wen Jinyu held her son's hand and said, "Mom is worried that the He family will object if we keep living in Yuhan's old house. After all, it's the woman's house, how can I, as her mother-in-law, take it over?"
Mom wanted to tell you that you don't need to build a new house, just find us an old house that no one lives in.
To be honest, my mom has lived in some of the nicest houses, and I've lived in some of the most run-down ones. I genuinely don't care about these things.
Han Yixian also grasped his mother's hand and said, "Mom, your son has the ability. Besides, we live in a nice house in the city, but you live in a dilapidated mud-brick house in the countryside. Do you think we can still live like that?"
Besides, if my dad knew we were making you live in a run-down house, he'd definitely break my legs. He's always been thinking of you and has never stopped looking for you. Now that he's found you, how could he let you suffer even the slightest bit more?
Han Yixian is now doing his best to improve his father's image so that his parents can be reunited as soon as possible.
Although Wen Jinyu had acknowledged her son, she hadn't yet inquired about Han Xiao. She was partly embarrassed, and partly afraid that Han Xiao had already forgotten her. She didn't want to cause an awkward situation by asking first.
Hearing her son say this now, she felt a mix of grievances, sweetness, anticipation, and a trepidation of wanting to escape from home. A complex array of emotions filled her heart.
Thinking of the vows she and Han Xiao made when they were young and the wasted years of her life, she couldn't help but burst into tears.
Han Yixian, seeing that he had stirred up his mother's sad memories, quickly put his arm around her shoulder and comforted her, "Mom, don't cry, everything will be alright in the future. Yuhan and I will take good care of you."
Wen Jinyu wiped away her tears and said, "You're luckier than your father to have married such a good wife as Yuhan. You have to treat her well from now on. She's my benefactor, and I won't stand for it if you dare to bully her."
Han Yixian smiled helplessly, "Sigh, my son has just found his biological mother and has already fallen out of favor. From now on, you two, mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, will be on the same side. I'll have to try my best to please you."
Wen Jinyu was immediately amused by her son.
She patted her son and said, "You're so big now and you're still being naughty."
Han Yixian said with a grin, "No matter how old I am, I'm still your son."
Wen Jinyu calmed herself down and said, "Yixian, now that I've seen you, I have some things to tell you. You know that your maternal grandfather's family was a famous family of doctors in the capital. Their wealth, if not comparable to that of a country, was still beyond the reach of ordinary families."
The most valuable possessions were the medicinal formulas passed down through generations of the Wen family. It was these formulas and the Wen family's wealth that ultimately led to their annihilation.
Back then, I escaped with your grandfather's instructions and also took over all of the Wen family's property and those precious medicinal formulas.
Although I studied medicine from elementary school, my talent was limited. In addition, after the Wen family got into trouble, I had to go into hiding and conceal my medical skills. Therefore, my medical skills have not improved much over the years, and I have failed the legacy of the Wen family.
All these things will be yours from now on; you must pass them down. Also, all of the Wen family's assets are still hidden in Kyoto; you need to find time to collect them.
I wonder if anyone else has discovered them over the years?
Han Yixian said, "I just went to Kyoto a while ago to receive the Han family property that my grandfather left me. Now that you've come again, I'm truly richer than a country."
Wen Jinyu patted her son and said, "Be careful, you can't reveal these things to outsiders. You and Yuhan discuss how to handle this. Anyway, those things are all yours now, you can handle them as you see fit, I won't worry about it."
I was already thinking of passing on the Wen family's medical books and prescriptions to Yuhan, and now that's perfect. With Yuhan studying medicine, there's someone to carry on these traditions, and I feel relieved."
Han Yixian laughed and said, "Mom, you've unloaded all the burdens on us."
Although the mother and son had not seen each other for many years, perhaps because of their blood ties, they did not feel any awkwardness and got along very naturally. Han Yixian liked his mother very much.
Even though my mother is old and has lived in the countryside for so many years, she still retains her elegant and gentle temperament. Although her face is weathered and she is no longer as young and beautiful, she is still an elegant and graceful woman.
This also shows that the mother must have been a stunningly beautiful girl when she was young. Moreover, she and the father had made a vow of eternal love, which explains why the father has never forgotten the mother all these years.
He now hopes that his father can get rid of Zeng Yufen as soon as possible and reunite with his mother.
Han Yixian told his mother to pack her things so he could pick them up the next day and drive back to Laohewan Village.
Wang Yuqiao often comes to He Yuhan's house to tidy up and air out the quilts, so it's ready to live in without much tidying up.
Wang Yuqiao stayed behind to help her daughter with chores while Han Yixian was sending people back to Liujiatun.
She helped her daughter make the bed and said, "Yuhan, it seems your mother-in-law isn't planning to move to the city with you?"
He Yuhan nodded and said, "Not yet. It's not the right time to reveal my mother-in-law's identity, to avoid attracting danger. Letting her come to Laohewan Village under the guise of being a village doctor will make it easier for us to take care of them secretly."
When my father-in-law finds out, he will definitely want to bring my mother-in-law to live with him.
But my uncle might not leave. We'll build them a house so he'll have a place to retire in the future.
Wang Yuqiao nodded and said, "You're so thoughtful. When a person has their own house and a home, it's like they have roots, and that's when they feel at ease."
"Your father-in-law already has a wife, right? He can't just bring her to live with him like that. I bet your mother-in-law wouldn't go."
He Yuhan said, "That must be because my father-in-law dealt with Zeng Yufen, and then rightfully married my mother-in-law."
Wang Yuqiao sighed and said, "Who knows how many more things might happen during this time? Just thinking about it makes me worry for your father-in-law."
He Yuhan said, "We shouldn't get too involved in their family matters; let them decide for themselves. I just need to take good care of my mother-in-law and uncle. In the future, you and Dad will have to look after them in Laohewan Village."
Wang Yuqiao said, "That's only right, don't worry about your mother-in-law."
