Yang Jiancheng stood in front of the farm’s gate, his eyes wet; this farewell might be the last.
Luo Qiao had previously told her master that if he didn’t want to leave, he could stay another day and leave the day after tomorrow.
But Yang Jiancheng refused, "Being able to co back and take a look is already very satisfying, not to ntion consuming soone else’s ti, always accompanying us."
Luo Qiao said to the people seeing them off, "Go back, I’ve left my phone number with Director Tiong, and if any of you co to Capital City, feel free to visit us at ho."
Director Tiong’s wife ca over at this mont, "You’ve been busy all day, and I haven’t had a chance to talk to you. Thank you for the duvet cover and blankets you sent back before, and you sent double, thank you so much, Luo Qiao."
Luo Qiao almost forgot about this, and only rembered now, "Auntie Tiong, wasn’t it that last ti we ca back, you used the sheets and quilt you prepared at ho for your son’s wedding on us? I had to show my appreciation, as long as you like it."
After exchanging a few more pleasantries, they got in the car and left.
Driving back to the county, the sky had completely darkened. They found a place for a simple al, then everyone returned to their rooms to rest, ready to return early the next morning.
*******
At the He Family in Capital City, He Peng felt as though he had been struck by lightning when he heard his forr father- and mother-in-law’s words.
His ex-wife Li Qianqian’s biological parents had been found, and they also knew about Li Qianqian’s matter. Most importantly, he realized he knew several mbers of Li Qianqian’s family, and each one was quite formidable.
He was now a bit afraid that the Luo Family might retaliate against him.
The Luo Family always acted low-key, and the He Family really wasn’t aware of the matters in Ji City.
So when the Li family ca to talk about this, the He Family mbers were all surprised.
He Jing and He Yuan had never ntioned the Luo Family at ho. Both brothers hated their father, He Peng, and would never talk about this topic in advance.
After learning about Li Qianqian’s biological parents, the He Family felt uneasy.
They actually knew that Li Qianqian’s death could not be separated from the current daughter-in-law Bao Xiaorui, but at that ti, Bao Xiaorui refused to admit to anything, and their son insisted on marrying her. To avoid being laughed at by outsiders, they suppressed the matter.
Feeling they owed Li Qianqian, they showed more affection for He Jing and He Yuan than for the other children in the family.
Now that they knew the identity of their forr daughter-in-law, they were restless, fearing that the Luo Family might beco hostile to the He Family once they learned about Li Qianqian’s affairs.
The Li family did as the Luo Family instructed; they delivered the ssage to the He Family and then left.
As for the subsequent matters, those were for the He Family to deal with. At this point, they hoped that the Luo Family would deal with the He Family, as they too held resentnt against them.
If they didn’t love her, why marry Qianqian? Why treat her like that, and under the sa roof, why ignore it?
Actually, the He Family wasn’t indifferent; it was just that He Peng was stubborn back then, believing that Li Haiying and Li Qianqian had plotted against him, so he married Li Qianqian out of revenge.
It was only after Li Qianqian’s death that he realized she was also a victim of the incident, but what use was regret now when she was already gone?
The recent matters concerning Bao Xiaorui had already left him exhausted, and now the Luo Family had appeared; he truly didn’t know what to do, and he deeply regretted his past actions.
Because of Bao Xiaorui’s affair, his family’s relations with him were strained; his father had already made it clear that the money could not co from the family’s public funds, as the He Family had more than one son.
So he could only sell off their private property, making him the poorest mber of the He Family. He truly regrets now why he didn’t listen to Li Qianqian’s explanations back then.
