Yang Jiancheng washed his hands and said, "Let's go back to the house. Don't let the children get cold anymore."
Luo Qiao saw that there was no one else in the room: "Master's wife, are you two the only ones at home today?"
Feng Shumin paused for a moment and said, "Yes, today is the sixth day of the New Year. They are all at work, and the younger ones were also driven away early."
After hearing what her master's wife said, Luo Qiao knew why.
As soon as breakfast was over today, the old couple started to drive people away. They didn't want Luo Qiao's family to come, or they would cause trouble.
Yang Jiancheng became interested in the bottle of wine: "Qiaoqiao, did you really brew this wine yourself?"
"How could it be false? If you don't believe me, ask Yichen. He helped me."
Lu Yichen was helping Yanyan tie her loose braids back into a bun: "She really did it herself, I just helped with some rough work."
Luo Qiao saw that the master was still circling around the jar of wine: "Master, how about I pour you a small cup so you can try it first?"
Yang Jiancheng smiled and waved his hand: "No, no, we will taste it together later."
When they were chatting happily, a neighbor walked into the yard and asked: "Professor Yang, is the car at the door yours?"
Yang Jiancheng thought he was blocking other cars from entering or leaving: "Yes, Lao Fang, do you need to move your car?"
Fang Yifeng said anxiously, "No, no, I just want to ask if you could take me to the station?"
Yang Jiancheng saw that he was anxious and asked hurriedly, "What happened?"
Fang Yifeng anxiously gestured with his hands: "Xiaowei left a note and ran away from home."
At this time, Lu Yichen had already put on his coat and came out. He probably knew what had happened: "Let's go, I'll take you there."
Fang Yifeng clasped his hands together and said, "Thank you so much. I'm sorry to have troubled you."
After they left, Feng Shumin said, "The Fang family is really something. Why don't they just walk a few steps outside and hail a taxi? Why do they have to let Yichen go there?"
Yang Jiancheng sighed, "Just stop talking. It's probably just Lao Fang who went after the guy. You know his legs. By the time he got to the alley, the kid would have already left in a car."
Feng Shumin was helping the children peel walnuts while she said, "The Fang family at the end of the alley, their son got divorced last year, and their daughter was awarded to him. A few months ago, he found a second marriage and married her. That wife also brought a son with her.
But the new daughter-in-law is a powerful one. She doesn't like the stepdaughter Fang Wei, who stayed behind. They had a fight before the New Year, and Fang Wei was beaten. It was the neighborhood committee that mediated the situation, and it was only a few days later that the child left a note and ran away from home again."
Luo Qiao asked, "How old is the child?"
Feng Shumin handed the peeled pistachio kernels to Yanyan: "It's smaller than Yanyan and the others."
Yanyan looked up at Feng Shumin: "Auntie, why did their father and mother want to divorce?"
Feng Shumin poked her little head with her finger and said, "You are just a kid, don't get involved. Go play with your brother and sister."
Yanyan refused to leave, so Feng Shumin had no choice but to say, "They quarreled all the time and couldn't get along, so they got divorced."
Yanyan nodded and said, "Fortunately, my father loves my mother very much, and they never quarrel."
After saying that, he ran to play with his younger brother and sister.
There is no wrong version in the 1619 book forum!
Feng Shumin sighed: "If a couple can't live together anymore, they can just get a divorce, but no matter which parent the child lives with, there will be problems of one kind or another, and the child is innocent."
Seeing that it was getting late, Luo Qiao let the children play by themselves and went to the kitchen to help the chef and his wife. The Buddha Jumps Over the Wall on the stove had been simmering on low heat for eight or nine hours with the broth, and now the aroma was very rich.
Luo Qiao smiled and said, "Master still loves me."
Feng Shumin laughed and said, "That's true. During the Chinese New Year, those troublesome kids at home clamored to eat Buddha Jumps Over the Wall, but your chef ignored them. You said you wanted to eat it, and you started preparing the ingredients early."
Luo Qiao was touched. Although some things were not going as she wished because of those families returning to Beijing, her master and his wife had her in their hearts, and that was enough.
As for what those families want to do, that is their business. Just don't get in trouble with her. Living in this world, it is impossible to have everything go your way. She just needs to take good care of her master and his wife.
