"Alright, we shall meet another day then,"

By this time, the County Magistrate had also lost the will to linger and hurried off following his steward.

Shopkeeper Yan glanced at the evening scenery, smiled faintly, and leisurely made his way back to his own tavern along the path.

...

The County Magistrate hurried back to his residence where a horse carriage was parked outside the entrance; it was the very one Shopkeeper Yan had given to the Fox Brothers.

Upon thinking of the steward’s words that they had brought back several exceptional individuals, the County Magistrate couldn’t help feeling delighted.

The Fox Brothers truly were his benefactors.

He worried about bandits harassing the people, and they helped him slaughter the bandits. He was concerned about the lack of capable men in the county, and they went out to recruit exceptional individuals.

Such benefactors, he must properly serve and honor.

At that time, Li Wenli was having tea in the sitting room with Old Uncle Qiu and his family.

It was the first time Old Uncle Qiu and his family had ever entered the County Magistrate’s residence, and they felt an inexplicable pressure, sipping their tea with great caution.

Xiao Shan, cradled in Qiu Da’s arms, felt the restraint of the adults and simply patted his shoulder, saying, "Father, don’t be afraid, Lord County Magistrate is easy to talk to."

Hearing his son’s reassurance, Qiu Da forced a smile.

Speaking of which, on the way back home, Qiu Da had insisted on this address. He just couldn’t bear to hear Xiao Shan call him uncle. The title of father must be used when necessary and could not be changed.

Xiao Shan, initially uncomfortable, gradually relaxed.

He didn’t understand what amnesia meant, only knowing that he had been ill and couldn’t remember things.

With the confirmation from Bai Junjun and Li Wenli, he learned that Qiu Da was indeed his father, Old Uncle Qiu was his grandfather, and Qiu Er and Qiu San were his second and third uncles.

At first, Xiao Shan was a bit sad because if he acknowledged Qiu Da as his father, then Bai Junjun could no longer be called his elder sister.

However, Bai Junjun consoled him that he could still call her elder sister.

Only then did Xiao Shan finally accept his father and uncles.

The family asked him if he had any impressions, if he remembered anything. Xiao Shan just silently shook his head.

He truly didn’t remember anything.

"It’s alright, it doesn’t matter if you don’t remember. As we live together, you’ll start to recall,"

And so, Xiao Shan began to readjust to life with his relatives.

To increase their closeness, Qiu Da almost constantly held Xiao Shan, even unwilling to let go when they arrived at the County Magistrate’s home.

That was the scene the County Magistrate came upon when he returned.

Bai Junjun and Li Wenli were sitting with a group of robust men in the Yamen, sipping tea.

These men looked strong and dependable at first glance.

The County Magistrate entered with an especially bright smile.

"You two young warriors have just left the city, and now you’re back?"

"Yes, we are here to bother the County Magistrate again," Li Wenli responded with a smile.

The County Magistrate waved his hands repeatedly out of courtesy, "Please bother us, be at ease!"

After a bit of polite conversation, Li Wenli took the initiative to introduce, "This is our friend, Old Uncle Qiu, his three sons, Qiu Da, Qiu Er, Qiu San, and his grandson Xiao Shan."

"Oh!" The County Magistrate had been eager to know the identities of these men but was too reserved to ask outright. Now that the opportunity had come, he greeted each one: "It’s a pleasure to meet you all. With such fine men visiting Dai County, I must extend my hospitality as a landlord. Speaking of which, I know Xiao Shan; we’ve seen each other often these days."

"Hello, Uncle County Magistrate," Xiao Shan greeted politely when his name was called, eliciting laughter from the adults.

It seemed Xiao Shan still thought County Magistrate was a name.
