Chapter 668: Chapter 668 Like Silver_1In Zhou Family Village, Xue Mei was preparing to go to the Jiang family with her daughter when Zhang Datie and his wife walked in just as they reached the courtyard entrance.
Seeing the couple’s haggard expressions, Xue Mei asked, "What brings you two here?"
Zhang Datie, pulling his wife along, knelt down, "Please save us, we are out of options, and we can only beg Sir Zhou to save us."
Xue Mei pulled her daughter back as Old Man Jiang heard the noise and came out of the house, "What’s happening?"
Xue Mei patted her daughter, "Go back to the house with Grandpa."
Jiang Miu clutched her mother’s hand and shook her head, "Mom, I’ll stay with you."
Seeing her daughter wouldn’t leave, Xue Mei said to her father, "Dad, it’s nothing, please go back first."
Old Man Jiang knew it was not his place to know, so he turned around and went back to the house. Nowadays, the elderly Jiang couple lived comfortably, fully reliant on their son and daughter-in-law’s words. They enjoyed good clothes and food without toil; in their leisure time, they’d stroll in the fields or chat with other old men in the village—a life of leisure envied by many!
Xue Mei brought Zhang Datie and his wife inside the hall, "Explain clearly, why are you asking to be saved?"
Zhang Datie spoke in a trembling voice, his fear and torment palpable, "Some time ago, someone came to the village to
Ning Xu was willing to protect Rongchuan, and just by Rongchuan’s appearance, he was very willing to do so, feeling as though he was protecting his elder brother.

Ning Xu, "...."
It’s not like I’m dealing with a young miss here, this is somewhat difficult for me. How can I tell Rongchuan that he can sell the gifts I bring?
Noon at the Zhou residence in Jinzhou Province, as soon as Zhulan got off the horse carriage, she saw Zhou Shuren and happily walked towards him, "How come you’re at home?"
Zhou Shuren, seeing his son running over, stretched out his arms to embrace him and said, "I knew you were coming back today, so I specifically took a leave."
Zhulan was overjoyed inside, "I didn’t even write to you that I was coming back today, and you knew. Does this count as ’telepathy’?"
Zhou Shuren, carrying his son back, "It does, telepathy."
Chang Zhong clung tightly to his father’s neck, "Daddy, I missed you."
Zhou Shuren, "Daddy missed you too."
Zhulan looked at Zhou Shuren and his son, "It’s really good to be back home."
Zhou Shuren whispered into Zhulan’s ear, "You’ve worked hard."
The crowd at the entrance watched as the parents abandoned them to head back to the courtyard.
Lady Li’s eyes widened, "Mother ignored us!"
Zhou Laoda and the others looked skyward speechlessly; indeed, she had ignored them, not giving them even a half-glance. In Mother’s eyes, there was only Father!
Chang Lian was also feeling gloomy; he had thought Father would say a few words to him, but he ended up completely overlooking him. Indeed a true father, with eyes only for Mother.
