Ren Huiqing did not see Lu Qingyao following her back, so he thought that his daughter was arguing with him.

"Let's go inside."

No one could tell whether he was happy or angry.

Ning Qing looked for help at Ning Lai, who shrugged helplessly, indicating that there was nothing he could do.

When Ning Qing saw that he was about to take these kids out to play, he quickly said, "Don't take them out to play first, let them eat and sleep. They haven't slept at all since yesterday."

He had just called her mother and was about to act shamelessly when he received a glare from his mother. Then, he forcefully swallowed his words back down his throat.

Ning Lai felt that when mother is going to get angry, preserving his life was more important.

"I'll go to the kitchen and cook for you."

At this time, Ren Huiqing's orders came from inside the house: Er Niu, there's pumpkin outside, let the children eat their steamed pumpkin.

"Got it."

Ning Qing walked into the house and saw mother sitting in front of a table with hot water on it.

Seeing his daughter enter, Ren Huiqing hurriedly called out, "Quickly drink some hot water to get rid of the cold." Then he said to his wife who was wearing clothes inside the house, "What are you dawdling for? It's not like I'm asking you to go for a beauty pageant.

Ning Qing held onto the water in his hands. When he saw his father come out, he said, "Father, I brought some medicine."

Ren Huiqing glared, "Eat some Chinese medicine."

She had been in good health since she was young, but as long as she was ill, she needed to drink Chinese medicine.

Hearing about the Chinese medicine, Ning Qing's face changed, "Mom, I …"

"You what, I'm asking you, did you and Qing Yao have an argument?"

"Even Lu Qingyao is not home." Ning Qing was speechless. He tilted his head and blew the boiling water, "Do you think I can quarrel with Regimental Commander Lu?"

Ren Huiqing choked, as if he was saying the same, and said stubbornly: "With your character, even ten oxen would not be able to pull you back, who knows if you will cause trouble."

Ning Qing felt that he should obediently drink the water.

Ren Huiqing relaxed and thought back to how the Lu family's parents seemed to have gone to the Hu County on the second night of the new year.

"You came back with your mother-in-law?"

Ning Qing's action of pouring water into the cup paused, his tone was clearly much colder than before, "No."

She yawned, half-opening her mouth, trying to change the subject to distract her mother.

Ren Huiqing got up and poured a cup of water, placing it by her side as backup, he then asked: "Did you have a conflict with your mother-in-law?"

Ning Qing nodded unwillingly, "I didn't intentionally cause trouble, she was the one who wouldn't forgive me."

Ren Huiqing shook her head helplessly. She had experienced the battles between wives, and this was not the reason for them not wanting to cause trouble, but because her mother-in-law said that she was wrong.

"It's good to be back."

Her daughter was still sick. Not only was she alone and helpless, she even wanted Huo Shu to cause trouble for her.

Ren Huiqing was curious. Previously, he didn't think that Huo Shu was such an unreasonable person. Could it be because the Old Madame Lu had pressured her previously and she felt that she was much friendlier because of something evil?

When Ning Qing heard mother's words, at the same time he was moved, Ning Qing was also exceptionally surprised.

"Mom, you're not going to ask the specific reason?"

"Drink the other cup of hot water as well." Ren Huiqing took his daughter's empty water cup, and said while raising his eyebrows: "Then, tell me about it."

"…"

Ning Qing smacked his lips and cursed in his heart: You talk too much.

"My mother-in-law values men over women …"

Ning Qing told his mother about the dissatisfaction he had with Ranran, his bias towards construction, and his thoughts towards Xiangjun and Xiangdang.

Just as she finished speaking, Second Sister walked in with a bowl of Clear Broth Noodle Soup.

Ning Lai's years of desire to live had told him that Main House was not safe, and he anxiously told her: "Mom, the children are eating in the side room, I have something to do, so I'll be returning first."

Ren Huiqing's current thoughts were all on the Lil Yao girl, he waved his hand at his second daughter, "Be careful when you go back."

Ning Lai replied and sent his little sister a look of 'blessings on your own'.

Ning Qingzheng sat in front of mother and said with grievance: "Why should I let her take away my precious honey that I raised with so much effort? Regimental Commander Lu would never notify me in advance when she goes on a mission. If she says she's going, then I'll leave.

As he said this, he coughed twice.

Ren Huiqing immediately felt his heart ache: I know you're feeling wronged, but... "You really don't have any savings?"

Ning Qing would never hide anything from his own mother.

"My monthly expenses are fixed. Regimental Commander Lu and I have both been promoted, and I have not used much of the dowry money previously."

Ren Huiqing casually calculated, there were at least a few thousand.

"Then why are you hiding it from your mother-in-law?"

"Aiyo, my mom, do you still not know what's going on with the Lu family? If I don't pretend to be so bitter, will I be able to live peacefully for the next few years? And that family, can they be so easily divided? "

"Wise."

Ning Qing lowered his head to eat the Clear Broth Noodle Soup, and laughed, not forgetting to praise him with his legs, "Isn't this what you can teach!? "This is how I live my life."

When she saw that mother's brows had slightly flattened up, she finally felt at ease.

Ren Huiqing laughed proudly and urged: "Quickly eat, wait a bit and finish drinking the medicine before going to bed."

He then looked out of the window and sighed. "That mother-in-law of yours …"

If Lu Qingyao did not want to keep it, Mrs. Lu would say so.

However, it wasn't as if he couldn't raise his two adopted children. As parents, they helped each other. If this went on, the relationship between mother and son would only grow deeper and deeper.

Huo Shu could not bear to see this. He had been a coward for his entire life, and even when he was old, he still used that old idea of his to care about his child's family matters.

Lu Qingyao stood at the fork in the road between Ning Village, and told his parents behind him, "I want to go to the Ning Family, you two can go back first."

Mrs. Lu frowned. Because she was scolded by her son before she returned, she did not dare say anything harsh and could only nod her head.

"Remember to come back and stay in two days. I'll clean up the place for you when I get back."

Lu Qingyao's current mood was not very good. He gave a light hum, and without knowing whether he agreed or not, he walked towards the Ning Family household.

Mr. Lu was frightened by his son's cold gaze when he left. He waited for him to walk far away before he said to his wife, "What did I say? An ingrate!"

"What nonsense are you spouting!?" If Ning Qing did not run back, no, that's not right. I must speak to Ren Huiqing properly about her daughter! "

Mrs. Lu glared at the Mr. Lu who was about to spout nonsense, and started walking towards the Han Village.

Without the pressure Lu Qingyao had given her, all the harsh words she had said and all the grievances in her heart were vented out.

She finally warned Mr. Lu: "If you say your son is an ingrate, then who are you?"

Mr. Lu had never been stubborn with his wife in his entire life. Hearing her unhappy tone, he instinctively did not refute and silently replied in his heart: If not for Lu Qingyao causing trouble, he would still be a filial son and wouldn't even be separated. Furthermore, he would never go to the Hu County in the first place and get laughed at by others.

This was the thing that made him think he was the most different from the ingrate's son.

But these words in his heart, he decided to just forget it.

Lu Qingyao followed the sunset and headed back to the Ning residence. Looking at the desolate fields and lifeless environment, he was unable to calm his unease and restlessness …
