Chapter 150 The bad guy complains first
After not seeing him for a few days, Yan Sui seemed to be much calmer, and his words were more like those of a head of the family.
"Mom, who on earth did this to frame you like this?"
"You don't have to worry about this matter. Now that mother is back safely, let's not look back on the past." Zhao Qiqi was afraid that if she said too much, she would make them impulsive, so she simply kept it secret. Anyway, He Honglian would not get anything good if she went back.
These were not things that these children could handle, and Zhao Qiqi did not tell them, which only added to their worries.
"Where is your aunt?"
After Li Yuzhu returned, she actually found the "dead" Sun Hu. She was both grateful and admired him.
"We're waiting for you in the carriage." Gu Yansui and Gu Yantang took Zhao Qiqi to the parking lot.
"Period!"
Li Yuzhu had tears in her eyes, as if it was not Zhao Qiqi who had experienced all this, but her. Seeing Zhao Qiqi come out safely, she could no longer hold back her tears.
"Okay, okay, as long as you're safe, go back quickly. Old Madam Gu and the children are extremely worried about you."
Zhao Qiqi held her hand again, all his gratitude was expressed without words.
When I returned to the town from the county, I passed by Penglai Pavilion. It was deserted, the door was closed, and a heavy atmosphere was overwhelming.
Zuixianju across the street is very prosperous, with a constant stream of guests coming and going.
Even if we wait until the news from the county comes back and everyone knows that no one was poisoned to death in Penglai Pavilion, it will greatly hurt the store's business.
The servant at the door recognized whose carriage it was and quickly stopped it: "But is Madam Zhao back?"
Seeing Zhao Qiqi leaning out from behind the curtain, the servant's face was filled with joy. They now had a lot more customers from other places, and it was all thanks to Zhao Qiqi.
Don't they know whether the pepper is poisonous or not? They used the pepper earlier than the Penglai Pavilion across the street.
"Please stay for a moment, Madam. The shopkeeper wants to come out and see you."
After all, such a big thing happened, Manager Zhang was also very concerned about the result. He knew that someone must be obstructing this matter.
Soon, Manager Zhang came out in a hurry and said, "Madam Zhao, I am relieved to see that you are safe and sound. You must be tired from the long journey. You may want to have a quick meal in the building before leaving."
"Thank you for your concern, boss. However, my elders at home are worried about me, so I have to go back quickly to report that I am safe." Zhao Qiqi smiled back.
The two said goodbye to each other. Along the way, Gu Yansui rode at full speed and finally returned to the village before dinner.
"Eldest daughter-in-law!"
Old Mrs. Gu's voice was as loud as a bell, and she didn't look weak at all. She led her whole family and waited for Zhao Qiqi at the entrance of the village.
"Okay, okay, I'm glad you're back."
Zhao Qiqi was also touched. Although the old lady was a little overbearing and aggressive, she was genuinely concerned about her and was looking forward to her return and wishing her well.
Gu Zhaoyun rushed over, tears in her eyes, and cried in front of Zhao Qiqi.
"Mom, Mom, you are finally back."
After all, she is still young, and no matter how mature she appears on the surface, she still has an unconcealable fear of such things.
Zhao Qiqi patted her back gently: "Mom is back, don't cry."
Gu Yanyan stood calmly with several cousins, but his clenched hands showed his nervousness and excitement.
"Sister-in-law! You are finally back. Come, jump over the fire basin and get rid of the bad luck."
Xiang brought out a brazier and placed it in front of Zhao Qiqi. She pulled the little girl away and said carelessly, "What's there to cry about? You're back home, aren't you?"
Bai was holding a pomelo leaf in her hand. After Zhao Qiqi stepped over the fire basin, she used the pomelo leaves dipped in water to sweep away the bad luck that had been going on for her for many days.
"Okay, from now on, you will be free from illness, pain, disaster and trouble. Let's go home and let your two sisters-in-law make dinner. Everything is ready."
The group returned to the Gu family's old house in great fanfare. It was very close and they arrived there in no time. Zhao Qiqi was not idle either, so he followed to help.
As Xiang poured the oil, she couldn't help but talk to Zhao Qiqi: "Sister-in-law, you don't know that I managed the workshop well during your absence. Nothing went wrong and the workshop's production volume increased. Several children went to look for them, but Yan Yan was smart. He knew there was a problem when he saw the family moving in a hurry, and he chased them and found them."
Zhao Qiqi now feels that it was right for her to be away for a period of time, to see how well they were able to handle things on their own. Now that everything is fine, it means that she can hand things over to them, and she doesn't have to supervise every production procedure.
After dinner, when she was about to leave, Gu Shun kept her with a conflicted look on his face.
Zhao Qiqi knew what he wanted to say, and what was meant to come would always come.
The two walked to a corner, and Gu Shun seemed to have made up his mind: "Sister-in-law, I really can't believe that there are two people in this world who are so similar."
"Second brother, so what? Do you want to go and recognize your relatives?"
Gu Shun was stunned by the question. What did his sister-in-law mean by this?
Seeing him stunned, Zhao Qiqi continued: "Whether he is your elder brother or not, it doesn't matter, do you know?"
"How can it not be important? If mother knew that my eldest brother was still alive, mother and son would be reunited..."
Zhao Qiqi nodded along with his words: "Yes, mother and son are reunited, and it is a happy family life. But, have you ever thought that either that person is not your eldest brother, or he is your eldest brother, but if he is really your eldest brother, why would he not go home?"
"Either he doesn't want to come back, or he has lost his memory. Only the last possibility still makes sense for us to look for him. But if he really has lost his memory, how can others believe him when he is a high-ranking county magistrate and has a fiancée who is the daughter of a minister?"
Gu Shun was a little surprised when he heard what Zhao Qiqi said. So, does this mean that his elder brother will never come back?
Yes, the eldest sister-in-law is still alive. If it is really the eldest brother, he will not marry another woman, even if the eldest sister-in-law in the past was arrogant and fierce.
He family
"Grandfather and grandmother."
As soon as Shen Shihui entered the room, she saw He Honglian looking at her with some resentment, with He's father and mother sitting above her.
"Hui'er, you know that you can never help outsiders to deal with your own people at any time."
He always had a stronger feeling of love for his second daughter and granddaughter, so when he learned that Shen Shihui was helping others in the government office to convict his eldest daughter, he felt mixed emotions.
He Hongxiao has not returned for many years, and his eldest daughter has always been at home, so he naturally feels closer to her.
Shen Shihui knelt in front of the two men without being humble or arrogant.
After all, he is old, and Mr. He is not as decisive as he was when he was young. When he saw his granddaughter kneeling down, his anger had mostly subsided.
