so laughed along, “That’s right, actually, every family just wants to live a simple life. They don't have any big ambitions like wanting wealth and glory. All they want is for the family to be togethe...Because Guo Wenhao is here, Jia Yin still has to put on a show.

But she didn't take medicine, after all, the feeling of weakness was unpleasant, so she wouldn't torture herself if she could avoid it.

She was simply wearing "sick" makeup and lying on the kang.

As expected, Zhao Yuru and the others were still startled.

Zhao Yuru deliberately touched her niece's hand, feeling the warmth and softness, only then did she truly feel at ease.

Li Ge'er, taking advantage of the crowd's inattention, gave his younger sister a thumbs-up.

Jia Yin couldn't help but almost laugh out loud.

Guo Wenhao's eyes turned red. Seeing Jia Yin like this, he thought of his deceased parents and grandfather who had passed away from illness.

In his miserable childhood, Jia Yin was a rare ray of light.

He envied her being loved by everyone, envied her always smiling so happily.

When he suddenly heard that she was critically ill, he refused to believe it.

I mustered up the courage to come here with Brother Li, just to see for myself.

He was just about to step forward and say a few words, asking Jia Yin if she still liked wood carvings. He had saved up a lot over the years and could send them all to her to play with.

As a result, he suddenly saw the interaction between Li Ge and Jia Yin. His mind sparked, and the big rock in his heart suddenly fell to the ground.

He said, she's so smart, how could she suddenly become seriously ill!

It turns out to be...

He quietly loosened his clenched fist.

It doesn't matter why she pretended to be sick, as long as she's safe and sound...

Li Jia left Wen Hao to eat, after the meal, Mr. Wen, Li La Er and Jia Ren came back from the city.

Guo Wenhao then stayed overnight at the next door with Mr. Wen.

Although Suijintan Beach wasn't far from Guo Jiazhuang, Mr. Wen wouldn't let his disciples rush and travel at night.

After all, there's only Guo Wenhao left in the Guo family as the last bloodline. As a teacher, he has to take care of him to some extent no matter what...

After the Li family's door closed, Jia Yin skipped happily to the front yard to play.

Li Laoer and Jiarren each held a bowl of beef noodle soup, along with two plates of side dishes, and ate heartily.

Zhao Yuru hugged her niece and looked at her carefully. Seeing that she really didn't have any signs of weakness, she finally felt relieved.

Li Lao Tai instructed Li Lao San, "When you come back, just don't worry about it anymore."

"Return to Luo'an early tomorrow, there are hundreds of students waiting for a meal, we can't be careless."

Zhao Yuru then said, "Mother, let the third son and Li Ge'er go back. I'll stay here to help you and Hongying."

"Wan'er is about to give birth soon, and she will need even more company during the confinement period. The house has been bustling with visitors these days, making it quite noisy."

"Why don't we have Wenjuan bring Xingxing back to the Luo An courtyard for a few days She can also help me look after the house."

Li Laosan also quickly said, "Mother, the canteen has been open for several years now, and Wu Sanniang and the others are all experienced. There's no need for us to keep watch every day."

"I'll be staying home for two days before heading back. You should keep Yuru here to help out. Maocger has gone out with Lao He and the others, only Ligger is staying with me at the dining hall."

Li Laotai only then nodded, “Alright, Yu Ru is at home, so Hong Ying can relax a bit.”

Tao Hongying also chimed in, "Fortunately, Meowzi is out again, otherwise, with Jia Yin's illness this time, he would be worried sick."

Zhao Yuru laughed and said, “Yes, this child has been lively and mischievous since he was young. I'm still worried about what he will do when he grows up.”

Who would have thought he wrote his travelogue about his trip to Quanzhou that year and became an overnight sensation, a bestseller in every bookstore!

Over the past two years, he's been traveling around with Lao Hei and his crew, writing more and more travelogues, and making a pretty good living from it. He's really made something of himself.

When it comes to her grandson, Old Lady Li's eyes sparkle with pride.

"With many children in a family, not everyone necessarily has to study and become an official. Each person should find a job they enjoy and that allows them to make a living."

"Speaking of which, in about half a month, Master Cat will be almost back."

"Yes, when he left, he said he would come back to welcome his little nephew. He'll definitely be back before Wan'er gives birth!" Tao Hongying also said with a smile.

Soon, Lao Er and Jiarren finished their meal, cleared the table, and made tea.

Jia Yin then asked, "Second Uncle, have you found any clues I've been acting sick these past few days, so much that I feel like I'm actually ill. I don't know when I can 'recover'."

Everyone couldn't help but laugh.

Li Laotai even patted her granddaughter's hand and scolded, "Everyone in the family has been running around for you, and we haven't even complained, yet you're the first to complain."

Jia Yin hugged her grandma's arm and clung to her, asking her grandma to peel grapes.

She is the patient, she's the biggest!

Li Laer thought for a moment, then said: "I've found some leads recently, but not many. If I'm not mistaken, the Wang family is behind this."

The Wang family

Mrs. Li then said, "The Wang family has been quiet for a long time, and I thought they were being honest. How come they've reappeared now"

Li Laosan questioned, "Is this because Lao Si and the Marquis are not at home, so they couldn't help but jump out to pick a fight"

Li Lao'er waved his hand, "Wang's grandfather has always been in poor health, Wang Laosan is still crazy and unstable, and Wang Zecheng has been honest these past two years."

"At first, I thought it wasn't the Wang family. But Wang Lao Er, who was originally an official posted outside the capital, had served his three-year term and should have returned to Kyoto to await reassignment."

He sent an official document to the Ministry of Personnel, saying that he was seriously ill and needed to recuperate on the spot for a year before returning to Kyoto.

He had never appeared in Xin Du before, so not many people were following him, and nobody knew about this.

"I exerted a great deal of effort and managed to uncover another lead connected to this Wang Er. I speculate he secretly returned to the capital. Give me some more time, and I'm confident we'll get to the bottom of this!"

"Our family and the Wang family, it's truly an unbreakable feud!" Li Lao Tai frowned, her eyes filled with anger.

"Back then, it was the Wang family who harmed your elder brother, causing our family to be separated for many years. We suffered so much. Not only are they not remorseful, but they also constantly try to trip us up!"

She flung the grapes in her hand and snarled, "Second Brother, if we catch him this time, don't be soft-hearted. Wipe out the Wang family in one go!

"

"This time they dare to touch Funiu, next time they might even dare to touch Jiaren and Jiai! Maoguer, Jiaxi and Ji'an are all outside too, none of the children will be safe!"

Li Lao'er quickly replied, “Mother, please rest assured. For these past few years, I and my elder brother have been trying to uproot the Wang family, but they haven’t made a move, and we can’t find any handle on them.”

"Now that they've taken Foon, we have our chance."

Li Laosan also said: "Second brother, if there's anything I can do to help, just speak up."

Li Laoer nodded and instructed carefully: "Alright, just protect the school cafeteria well. I'm worried that the Wang family will be pushed too far in the end and become desperate."

"What if, by running to the cafeteria and poisoning them, hurting the students, our family would be innocent, but we'd probably also be shunned by many"

When Li Laosan heard this, he became restless and turned to the old woman.

"Mother, then I will return to Lu'an tomorrow."

"Go on, go on, don't worry about home." Li Lao Tai waved her hand. "You brothers should discuss things together and be careful not to get tricked."

Tao Hongying frowned and said, “Even if we know that the Wang family is behind this, they have put Funiu on a pedestal, praising her as blessed, almost everyone knows it. What is their purpose”

Everyone was silent, guessing just as cluelessly. quietly if he wanted to say a few words."I don't want to," Zhou said, opening his mouth. "My father-in-law has been dismissed from office, and we can't stay in Xindu anymore. We will set off for our...
