Chapter 482: Chapter 482 You Should Find Someone More Skilled

Luo Qiao greeted everyone one by one, and Yuan Weicheng said, "Our Qiaoqiao is indeed impressive, congratulations from your uncle."

Luo Qiao felt somewhat embarrassed, "Thank you, Uncle."

Then the old master came out and called his three sons to the study. It was clear they were going to discuss some matters.

The food in the kitchen was almost ready, and except for Big Brother Yuan Jiahui and Second Brother Yuan Jiawei, who were in the army, everyone else in the family had returned.

Luo Qiao washed some strawberries she had brought and served them to everyone. Yuan Jiaming asked, "Where did these come from?"

Luo Qiao replied with a faint smile, "I saw someone selling them on my way here, so I bought quite a few."

Yuan Jiayi took a plate from Luo Qiao’s hand and said casually, "You’re quite lucky. How come I never run into this kind of luck?"

Yuan Jiaxing laughed, "Fourth Brother, strawberries are your favorite. I almost forgot."

Luo Qiao heard this, "Then Fourth Brother should eat more."

She then added, "You guys start eating. I’ll go to the kitchen to check on the dishes."

Yuan Jianing stood up and took a strawberry from the plate, "I’ll go too."

As she placed the strawberry in her mouth, she commented, "Qiaoqiao, these strawberries are really sweet."

When dinner was served, the four men from the study also came out. Since Aisiss’s situation wasn’t something to be proud of, they didn’t involve the grandchildren.

The atmosphere at the dinner table wasn’t affected by Aisiss’s matter. The Yuan Family didn’t have the custom of dining in silence—everyone talked and laughed, sharing recent work anecdotes or problems they encountered. Time passed quickly.

After everything was cleaned up and tea was brewed, and a few more plates of strawberries were washed, everyone moved to the living room. Yuan Jianing asked, "Qiaoqiao, you’ve taken a long leave from school. What are your plans now?"

Luo Qiao set down her teacup, "I need to go to Inner Mongolia to gather a few herbs. Since I have to return to Ji City by the end of the month for midterm exams, time is a bit tight."

Yuan Weihan frowned, "Qiaoqiao, dad has a comrade-in-arms over there. Can’t I ask them to look for you?"

Yuan Weihan knew there were dangers on the grasslands, like wolves. Even though Luo Qiao could defend herself, he was still worried.

Luo Qiao smiled, "Don’t worry. I’ll bring plenty of medicine with me. There won’t be any danger. I’ll send you some local specialties from there."

Yuan Weihan wanted to say more, but Tiong Shulan interjected, "Alright, we know you can’t stop her. Don’t make the child feel uncomfortable."

Turning to Luo Qiao, "But you must promise us, safety comes first, okay?"

Luo Qiao nodded firmly, "Don’t worry, I’ll take good care of myself."

Tiong Shulan spoke with a touch of affection, "I really don’t understand how you’re so brave to go alone. You must pay attention to safety. Nothing is more important than your well-being, remember that."

Luo Qiao snuggled into Tiong Shulan’s embrace, "I’ll remember."

Just then, someone knocked on the front door. Yuan Jiayi, who was closest to the door, stood up, "I’ll go see who it is."

As he walked out, Master Yuan gave his youngest son a look, and Yuan Weicheng also got up and followed.

Luo Qiao then heard Auntie Chen’s voice outside, "Please, help Si Si. The child in Si Si’s belly is innocent, but the Qiao Family insists on aborting it. They really don’t leave any way out for people."

Yuan Jiayi said coldly, "If you’re going to cry, go cry at the Qiao Family. What’s the logic behind coming to our Yuan Family and making a scene, making others think we’ve wronged her?"

Yuan Jiayi didn’t previously know about Aisiss’s pregnancy, and now hearing such news, he had an even lower opinion of the mother and daughter.

Yuan Weicheng also chimed in, "The Qiao Family’s matter is really none of our business. Don’t forget how you ended up with the Qiao Family in the first place. You might as well seek help elsewhere."

Actually, there were already people watching the commotion from the shadows. The Yuan and Qiao Families were not on good terms, and there was tension on ordinary days. Moreover, when Auntie Chen and her daughter were taken in by the Qiao Family, quite a few cold words were said.

If the Yuan Family were to intervene too eagerly now, Shu Ruyue might not have anything positive to say. It could make things even more difficult. Everyone in the courtyard was watching today’s events unfold, and he believed the Qiao Family wouldn’t dare to go too far.
