After Becoming the Villain Mother-in-Law, I Launch My Redemption Arc Chapter 318: What Do You Think?

"How is it?" ng Yao asked.

"I’ve found out. Mr. Wang is indeed teaching at the academy, but not at one of the academies in the Prefecture. He’s at the Qixia County," Zhao Ting replied.

"Is it far from the Prefecture?" ng Yao asked.

"Not far at all, it’s just on the way," Zhao Ting said.

"Shall we stay in Qixia?"

"It’s up to you."

The three of them didn’t delay in Xuzhou and drove straight to Qixia.

Upon arriving in Qixia, the system locked onto their positions without ng Yao even having to ask.

As ng Yao had guessed, Mrs. Qian was at the cloth shop.

As for Mr. Wang, he was at the Qixia Academy, two streets away from the cloth shop.

Although ng Yao knew the location of the cloth shop, if she were to ntion it directly, it would surely raise suspicions. After all, there were several cloth shops in town.

So, ng Yao chose to go to the Qixia Academy to et Mr. Wang first.

After explaining her purpose to the gatekeeper, the old man went in to report at once. Shortly after, Mr. Wang ca out jogging.

Running into an old friend in a foreign land is an exciting thing indeed.

"Lady Dahe, what brings you here? How did you find ? A Min will be so happy to see you." Mr. Wang greeted ng Yao warmly. "Please wait a mont, I’ll go ask the principal for so ti off."

Mr. Wang didn’t even give ng Yao a chance to speak before he hurriedly ran back into the Academy.

"Mr. Wang sure is in a rush," Zhao Ting comnted.

"Our Mr. Wang is the most steady gentleman in the Academy," the gatekeeper said. "It must be because you’re friends with him; he’s just too excited to see you."

It seed that Mr. Wang was doing quite well at the Qixia Academy.

"Indeed, Mr. Wang is indeed very steady. Otherwise, my two sons wouldn’t be studying under him. My eldest son is waiting for the autumn examination!" ng Yao said with a smile.

"You look so young, Madam. Your sons must be quite young, aren’t they?" the gatekeeper asked with interest.

"Not very, they’re already fifteen," ng Yao replied.

At fifteen years old, taking part in the autumn examination, Qixia Academy had never produced such a scholastic student before.

Unexpectedly, Mr. Wang was such a remarkable individual!

The key was, being so remarkable, yet so low-key.

He might have a good chat with the principal when there’s a chance!

Mr. Wang soon returned carrying a bundle and called ng Yao to go with him.

With Mr. Wang leading the way, ng Yao soon t Mrs. Qian.

Upon seeing ng Yao, Mrs. Qian instinctively rubbed her eyes, thinking she was seeing things.

"Sister Qian." ng Yao called out.

Mrs. Qian pinched her own arm, inhaling sharply, "Ah Yao, is it really you? I thought I was seeing things! How did you suddenly co to Xuzhou? Is there sothing going on? How is Dahe and everyone else?"

Mrs. Qian asked several questions one after another.

Without waiting for ng Yao to answer, she put down her abacus, called out in the shop, and a shop assistant quickly ca over. Mrs. Qian instructed her briefly before inviting ng Yao, "Let’s go, ho."

Mrs. Qian and Mr. Wang rented a small courtyard not far from the cloth shop.

Three main rooms, with two side rooms on each side, forming a U-shape, enclosing a courtyard, neatly arranged. There were orchids planted along the south wall.

"The place is a bit small, Ah Yao, please don’t mind it," Mrs. Qian said. "Have a seat; I’ll go boil so hot water to make tea for you."

ng Yao went straight to the kitchen with Mrs. Qian.

"I was too embarrassed to ask before, the man accompanying you..." The kitchen was quite close to the courtyard, so Mrs. Qian spoke very quietly.

But Zhao Ting’s hearing was sharp, and he clearly heard Mrs. Qian’s question.

Half-heartedly chatting with Mr. Wang, he was also eavesdropping, eager to hear how Ah Yao would respond.

"It’s a long story," ng Yao replied.

"Then make a long story short," Mrs. Qian, being straightforward, was never one to beat around the bush.

She genuinely regarded ng Yao as a sister, so she spoke as directly as possible.

"He’s the biological father of Dajiang and Dahe," ng Yao said.

"What?" Mrs. Qian raised her voice, then glanced outside nervously before lowering her voice again, "Didn’t they say he was dead? Is this a case of the living dead? No, it’s been many years; the corpse must’ve decomposed by now!"

Zhao Ting’s mouth twitched.

ng Yao briefly explained the situation.

Mrs. Qian suddenly understood, "Suffered amnesia, beca the biological father, then suffered amnesia again but recovered the mories lost from the previous injury, and after quite a while, regained mory again? Is that correct?"

ng Yao nodded, precisely summarizing the situation.

"So now, you two?"

ng Yao sighed deeply.

"You just forgave him like that? It seems like he’s innocent enough, but for all these years, you’ve endured so many hardships with the children, it’s not sothing that can be dismissed with a re excuse of innocence," Mrs. Qian was indignant on behalf of ng Yao because it seed to her that even if Zhao Ting hadn’t ’co back to life’, her sister could still find happiness.

Now, it’s hard to say.

Although she wasn’t superstitious, Zhao Ting certainly seed unlucky, and who knows if it would get worse in the future?

"He ca to find us imdiately after regaining his mory," ng Yao said.

She wasn’t making excuses for Zhao Ting but rely stating the truth.

She couldn’t lie about this.

"Still, I can’t help but feel aggrieved for you," Mrs. Qian said. "I have to ask, he’s the Great General, wasn’t he looking for soone all these years? As far as I know, large households often have multiple wives and concubines, which is quite usual."

"He wasn’t looking," ng Yao said.

Mrs. Qian’s face softened a bit, "That’s more like it. Did you go to his ho? How did his family react? In such large households, I hear there are strict requirents for daughters-in-law."

Being a village girl, will Ah Yao be looked down upon? This was sothing Mrs. Qian worried about.

"The old lady is very kind, I like her a lot," ng Yao said truthfully.

She was nice to her and the children. Even before knowing her past, she treated her very well, a lovable old lady.

Considering her mother-in-law’s virtues was a significant plus for Zhao’s family.

"No ssy won, and a good mother-in-law, it seems there are indeed worthy things. But you don’t seem very close to him despite being with him now," Mrs. Qian observed sharply.

Based on what Ah Yao said, this brother-in-law seed quite alright.

"Ah Yao, please tell your sister honestly, what do you think?" Mrs. Qian asked sincerely.

"Sister Qian, matters of the heart are complicated," ng Yao replied.

"What’s so complicated? Let ask you, do you dislike him?" Mrs. Qian asked.

ng Yao shook her head.

She indeed didn’t dislike the current Zhao Ting; apart from occasionally being childish, most of the ti he was very dependable. On this journey, he had arranged everything ticulously, and she didn’t have to worry at all.

There’s a saying from later tis that goes, "If you want to know if you’re compatible with soone, take a long trip with them." Her trip with Zhao Ting should count as such a journey, right?
