Qianyin touched Zong Xing's head, just like an elder touching the head of an ignorant junior, full of love and compassion.
"Stay here well and don't think about other things. I still say the same thing, if you want to leave, you can go by yourself, but I want to stay here. I don't want to live a wandering life anymore, I want stability
."
Zong Xing's last illusion was shattered by Qian Yin's determined words.
"Let me go, young master." He heard her say.
Zong Xing let go of her in bewilderment and watched her leave the small forest in a leisurely manner.
It was like leaving his heart, so decisively without any hesitation or looking back.
·
On the other side, Lu Hua left Zongxing's courtyard. Although he did not go to Qianyin, he hesitated and went to Qiao Xin.
Qiao Xin was getting ready to wash up and go to bed.
She was not used to ordering her servants around. She even refused to let them do things like boil water, but made the fire herself.
When Lu Hua saw it, he quickly called the maid for help.
"No, I can do it myself." Qiao Xin refused to let the maid do these things.
The maids looked at Lu Hua's face, and Lu Hua motioned for them to leave.
Lu Hua walked to Qiao Xin and asked symbolically: "Then do you need my help?"
"I want your help, will you do it?" Qiao Xin asked.
Lu Hua choked at her words.
He hadn't done this kind of thing in many years. In his eyes, how could he, the commander-in-chief, do such a trivial thing?
Even when there is a war, there are dedicated people responsible for his daily life.
"I can carry water. Do you have enough water?" Lu Hua asked again.
Qiao Xin had already seen through it, "Dad, if you have something to say, just say it directly. If you have nothing to say, then go back and rest early."
Lu Hua hesitated, wanting to say it but not daring to say it. How could he look like a warlord commander who held great power?
"Um, Xinxin, did you meet the Nineteenth Aunt today?" Lu Hua held it in for a long time and could only say this meaningless sentence.
And Qiao Xin didn't need him to say another word to know why he came.
Qiao Xin's movements stopped, "Dad, if you want to come to me to ask for an explanation and justice for your Nineteenth Aunt, then you are here in the wrong place. What I said to her was all from my heart.
Internally, I don’t think there’s anything wrong with it.”
"She cried to you. That's not my problem, it's her problem. So don't come to me. If you can, comfort her yourself and don't let me apologize to her."
Lu Hua didn't expect that Qiao Xin would misunderstand Qianyin again before he said anything.
"That's not the case, it's not her..."
"Dad, please go, I don't want to hear it. I'm tired and want to sleep."
Qiao Xin saw off the guests directly, and Lu Hua had no choice but to go out.
He sighed, feeling that the family was really too difficult to deal with.
He used to be unloving and had never been in such trouble.
But now, with his newly married concubine on one side and his newly recognized baby daughter on the other, he finally experienced the troubles of ordinary people.
Lu Hua went back, and he thought that Qiao Xin would be sulky at best.
But the next day, the servant hurriedly came to report to him, "The master is not good, the eldest lady is missing!"
Lu Hua quickly spat out the mouthwash, stared and said, "What does 'missing' mean? Where is she? She was fine last night!"
Qiao Xin refused to let her servants serve her, so it was not until breakfast that the servants discovered that her room was empty.
She took nothing and left as empty as when she came.
Lu Hua slapped the table and shouted: "Go to Ye Shanghai to check! Then send someone to contact Mr. Qin to see if she has gone back again!"
The men went out one after another, and the fight was very loud.
Soon, all the aunts and wives knew about Qiao's secret.
This gust of wind also reached Qianyin's ears.
Qianyin walked to the hall wearing a newly made cheongsam and bowed to Lu Hua first.
Lu Hua was having a headache. When he saw Qianyin, he thought Qianyin was here to show off his temper, but his head hurt even more.
"I have something to do now and don't want to listen to you." His tone was a bit bad.
He even felt that Qianyin had no eyesight at all.
When did this happen? If you have any complaints, couldn’t you choose another time to say it? You have to choose this moment?
Unexpectedly, Qianyin said: "Master, I heard that the eldest lady is missing. I was wondering if what happened yesterday made the eldest lady feel uncomfortable. Then the eldest lady's departure has something to do with me. So I want to take the initiative to invite you.
Go find the eldest lady."
Qianyin's words surprised Lu Hua.
He sat upright, looked at Qianyin steadily and said, "Are you willing to find Xinxin?"
"I do." Qianyin lowered her eyes, looking very good-natured.
Lu Hualian said a few good words, and it seemed that he was really moved by Qianyin's attitude.
"Don't worry, sir. After I find the eldest lady, I will have a good talk with her."
"When necessary, I will apologize to her and let her know that I have no hostility towards her and I just want to get along well with her."
Qianyin's words put her posture in a very low position, which made Lu Hua feel happy and at the same time felt very sorry for her.
He wanted Qianyin not to be so humble, but when he thought that the person Qianyin wanted to humble himself was his precious daughter, he could not say the words.
"Qianyin, come here." Lu Hua stretched out his hand and called.
Qianyin walked over obediently.
Lu Hua took out another banknote and stuffed it into her, and whispered to her: "I know you are wronged, and I also know that what happened yesterday was not your fault."
"I'm very happy that you can understand me and consider me."
"I know you don't like these external things, but now I can only use this to make up for you, please accept it."
This was said to Qianyin secretly.
On the bright side, Lu Hua cleared his throat and pretended to be serious: "Take this banknote, and when you see Xinxin, no matter what she wants, as long as she can forgive you, as long as she is willing to come back, then you can buy it for me.
she."
This was Lu Hua's usual method, and the other aunts and wives were all used to it.
Qianyin accepted the bill and said with a low eyebrow, "Okay."
This time when she went out, Qianyin didn't bring any maid with her.
Because her weight in Lu Hua's heart has become heavier again, and she has tamed her servants very well, so when she says she doesn't want anyone to follow her, no one really does.
She first went to Ye Shanghai to find Qin San.
She handed the banknote that Lu Hua just gave her to Qin San. After Qin San saw the face value of the banknote, he asked in surprise: "What does this mean?"
"My investment." Qianyin said with a faint smile, "I believe in Third Master's business talent, so this money is invested in Third Master. When Third Master makes money, just give me some dividends depending on the situation."
