Chapter 394: You want to know?

"Sister, did you come to see our mother?"

"No, I came to see Qiao Lvshi."

"After so many years, you still don't forgive us?"

"After so many years, can you have a trace of kindness? Can you correct the problem of selfishness?"

Speaking of this, the first daughter-in-law lowered her head, and Yuan Jiaqi sighed in his heart.

Qiao Mai pushed the door and walked in. "I don't have extra time to stay here. Where is Qiao Lvshi?"

"Mother is lying in the room, sleeping for more than half the time."

Qiao Mai walked into the upper room. The room was bright, and there was no strange smell. It seems Qiao Lvshi didn't suffer much after getting sick.

The first daughter-in-law came to the edge of the kang and whispered.

"Mother, mother, Mai Zi came to see you."

"Wrong, it's not that I don't accept it, but you are parents. When the child encounters difficulties and setbacks, you not only don't help, but also fall into the trap. She has reached that point, and you still want to suck blood from her. What reason do you have for me to treat you well? Are you worthy?"

"Yes, yes."

"Hmm, managed well."

Entering the room, it is warm as spring; out of the room, it is icy and snowy. Wherever you go, it makes people feel fresh.

Watching Qiao Mai turn and walk out of the room, he followed behind. The Qiao family's first branch thought Qiao Mai would leave some money, but when she returned to the room and saw the kang empty, she was a little disappointed.

"This is knowing you are wrong? Harming people's lives and not even an apology? Why should I forgive you?"

"It's a pity that I came back late, otherwise I could see the market in the north."

"It's New Year, Father and the others must have arrived in Tianshui Town by now?"

"Of course, your small food shop is about the same as the capital, and we all like it very much."

"You want to know?"

"Hmm, the small town is more than ten times larger than before. There are more people, and more materials are needed. The mayor of the small town is from the Qian family of the imperial court."

"That's natural. There are not many such good mayors who contribute both effort and money."

Ling'er shook her head. "Just take a look from afar. It's an extraordinary period now. It's better to protect our children."

"Mai Zi, I'm sorry."

The Crown Prince's eyes flashed, and then he nodded. "The Crown Princess is right."

Yuan Jiaqi had a cold face. "Don't think too much, I just came to see."

Qiao Lvshi's face turned pale. "She? She? Then you?"

The warm sheds in the backyard were seen by both of them. They finally realized why the Princess Consort of Prince Fu liked this place.

"Don't feel boring, on the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, I held a Lantern Festival for you. I will take you to see it then?"

"That year, what did you say to your father? He has been crying and regretting ever since."

Qiao Mai looked at her calmly. "If you have anything to say, just say it."

Qiao Mai looked at Yuan Jiaqi and said slowly, "Your Qiao Mai had already died on the night at the Tian family."

"Hmm, then it's fine."

Tianshui Town has been rich these years. Every household started setting off firecrackers before thirty, and the New Year flavor is very strong.

"In-law, where did you go?"

"It's enough to come and see us."

"I am doing very well, don't bother you to worry."

"Should be, Mother is counting the days, and I also want to spend the New Year there."

That night, Qiao Mai bought a lot of fireworks and firecrackers from the platform.

Without children, adults can also set them off. From this day on, the fireworks and firecrackers never stopped.

"Are you afraid?"

"Sigh~ I'm afraid the two people in the Yuan family are also like this. In poor health, they also want me to soften my heart and give them some money to live a better life."

"Then are you still going to Xinghua Village?"

No wonder, although he was shocked, he didn't say much.

"Just a soul that took over this body."

"Cut, who looks at it."

Yuan Jiaqi helped Qiao Mai onto the horse first, and then he got on the horse himself. He had no nostalgia for this place at all.

I don't know if it was because she heard Qiao Mai's name, Qiao Lvshi slowly opened her eyes. The moment she saw Qiao Mai, she shed tears of regret.

The couple then went to Xinghua Village. The Yuan family didn't expect the two of them to come together.

They wanted to salute the two, but were rejected by Yuan Jiaqi. Qiao Mai saw the Yuan parents on the kang and was silent for a while, then reached out and took their pulse.

"Father and mother are not there, the house is empty."

Yuan Jiaqi got up and went out. Qiao Mai followed behind him, and the Yuan clan members followed out.

"If there is nothing, we will leave."

"Ai."

"Have you ever burned paper for Chuan'er's mother once? Have you ever said a sorry to her?"

The Yuan clan leader looked at the departing Yuan Jiaqi and Qiao Mai, and wiped a sour old tear. One by one, they thought they were great, thinking that after becoming an official, they must have the support of the family. Really, their feet grew on their heads. Such a poor family, what is there to rely on? People have money and power, and they are their own reliance.

"In the future, we must unite as one and not let such things happen again."

"You don't know."

The Old Emperor and Empress rested for a few days and finally recovered. The two rare ones walked around Jixiang Yuan.

"Opened, opened."

"Haha."

"The feeling of going home is really good!"

As soon as they entered the house, all the Yuan clan members came over.

"It's too late."

"This is the reason why I don't treat them well. Wrong, and wrong again and again, people who don't repent even if they die, why should I treat them well?"

"Now we have nothing to do, let's go and see?"

The Yuan clan members, especially the clan leader, regretted and beat their chests.

"Yes, they all say that people who have developed can't leave the family. We are the ones who can't leave him."

"It's been so many years, he still hasn't forgiven us."

The Yuan parents saw Yuan Jiaqi and excitedly grabbed his sleeve. "Son, you finally came to see us."

"I see you are also very lively here. There are still people setting up stalls outside."

In the palace of the capital, after the Crown Prince and Ling'er finished dinner, the two were digesting in the courtyard.

"Mother is dying, let Mother be a clear ghost?"

"Yes, the Yuan family produced a Prince, and it ended up like this. This should have been the time for our Yuan clan to be glorious. Sigh~"

"Wife?"

Qiao Lvshi trembled her lips. "Yes, I am not worthy, I am not worthy."

"Good, I will accompany you."

"No wonder, you don't accept us."

"Do you want me to promote him?"

Qiao Lvshi kept muttering. "I am not worthy, I am not worthy."

Jixiang Yuan, Jiamei held the child, and Chuan'er guarded her on the side.

"Hmm, Mother is so cruel, saying that she won't come back after returning."

Chuan'er pinched her little nose. "Mother is for strength, for better protecting us."

"Wrong?"

"Went out to see, are you two used to it here?"

Yuan Jiaqi was shocked when he heard these. It turned out that his wife was not the original Qiao Mai.

"It's okay, caught a cold, the body is strong. Did the doctor prescribe medicine?"

"Not afraid, my wife treats this family, me and the children so well, what to be afraid of?"

"Mother knows."

Mentioning this, the two old people didn't hum. Yuan Jiaqi snorted coldly.

"Son, son, don't go, we were wrong, please forgive us?"

Returning to the town, looking at the familiar place, Qiao Mai said with emotion.

"Jiaqi! You!"

"First branch's, you go out first."

The couple rode their horses, walking slowly on the official road.

Hearing that they were back, the two went to the door to pick them up.

"Know, just feel that Mother is here, and the confidence is sufficient."

"Not here, we also have to guard here."

On the night of the 30th, the Old Emperor and Empress were both drunk. They were already at home, in the territory of the Princess Consort of Prince Fu, so there was nothing to worry about.

Yuan Jiaqi also drank a little too much. They all liked this feeling of relaxation.

On the first day of the New Year, Qiao Mai and Yuan Jiaqi entertained relatives and friends in the small town at home. They hadn't seen each other for many years. Their children were all married and had children. If they didn't introduce them, they might not recognize each other when they met. ===== CHAPTER 395 =====
