"Speak," Old Master Wan nodded.
Chuxia sat down beside him, "Will the Zhou family’s situation this time be very serious? You brought me here and didn’t let me accompany my parents to send off Grandma and Grandpa. Are you worried that the Xiao family people will take the opportunity to seize me now?"
Old Master Wan smiled helplessly and after a moment, said, "Silly girl, do you really think the Xiao family are lawless to that extent? To snatch you away just like that?"
"Then..." Chuxia scratched her head in embarrassment. She had indeed thought so before, and it seemed she had made a fool of herself.
"Chuxia..." Old Master Wan’s expression turned serious, "It’s possible that you won’t see Xiao Zhou for a while. Grandpa doesn’t want you to face that situation."
So soon? Chuxia was immediately stunned.
...
At this moment, the Zhou Family Ancestral Home was in a state of hurried activity.
Zhou Hanliang took everyone to visit a famous scenic spot, bought some local specialties, and then sent everyone back to the ancestral home. Having been reminded earlier, Aunt Liu had already prepared lunch in advance.
During lunch, Zhou Mikang, Elder Zhao, Old Lady Zhao, and Lin Baohe and Zhao Yulan came over. After greeting all the elders, they looked at Zhou Hanliang, "Is the luggage loaded onto the car?"
"It’s loaded. Aunt Liu and Little Jing moved it up earlier," Zhou Hanliang nodded.
"Xiao Zhou..." Dagang’s Grandpa pulled Zhou Mikang aside, "Tell me, has something happened?" He was too sensitive to these matters. If there was nothing wrong with the Zhou family, they definitely wouldn’t send them away so urgently. Moreover, just a few days ago, Old Master Zhou and Old Madam Zhou said they wanted them to stay longer, but now they were leaving without even saying goodbye, which was highly abnormal.
"Yes!" Zhou Mikang didn’t hide it from him and simply replied, "Grandpa asked me to tell you that once the Zhou family stabilizes, he will personally come to visit you. We apologize for this time."
"What’s there to apologize for? I’m embarrassed that I can’t help. Xiao Zhou, I won’t ask more questions. Just convey this message to your grandpa for me, that no matter what happens, Elder Chen will always be his friend. Also, let someone send me a message when things are settled, and if there’s anything I can do to help, I will not stand idly by."
Zhou Mikang smiled gratefully at him, "Elder Chen, don’t worry. It’s nothing serious, and it won’t last too long."
"That’s good..." Dagang’s Grandpa hesitated for a moment, then asked, "Chuxia staying here won’t be a problem, right? How about letting her come back with us?"
"She’ll be safe staying here," Zhou Mikang said.
Seeing that Dagang’s Grandpa was still frowning, Zhou Mikang continued, "Elder Chen, the Zhou family really can’t protect her now, but both Grandpa Jing and Grandpa Wan have recognized her as their goddaughter. With them here, those people wouldn’t dare to harm her."
Dagang’s Grandpa finally felt reassured, "Then let’s leave now. The longer we stay, the more trouble you’ll have."
Zhou Mikang nodded, "Yes, I’m worried that those people might act rashly, which is why I’m hurrying to send everyone back. I’ll have to trouble Elder Chen and the others to explain on our behalf."
"All right, leave it to me." Elder Chen turned and walked towards the center of the hall. Seeing that Luo Gangshun and Zhao Yushan were both looking at him worriedly, he waved his hand, "Let’s go. It’s not safe to drive at night. It’s best to set off early."
"Aunt, Uncle, I want to stay a few more days with you." Zhao Qiyan, hearing that Lin Baohe and Zhao Yulan were staying, tugged at Zhao Yulan’s sleeve and acted coyly.
"Qiyan, hurry up and leave!" Old Lady Zhao glared at her, "You’re not young anymore, don’t be so naive!"
"She’s just arrived and you’re in such a hurry to drive her away..." Zhao Qiyan looked pleadingly at Zhou Mikang, "Brother-in-law, let me and my mom stay a couple more days. We’re tired from the journey and haven’t recovered yet."
"Exactly, exactly, my whole body aches, and if I have to sit in a car and go back, I’m afraid my body really won’t take it," Lin Xiaohua said while pretending to hold her waist and groaning.
"Then you guys just don’t go," Elder Zhao said, looking at the mother and daughter with an expressionless face, "Later, get their luggage taken down to stay."
"Grandpa, you’re the best!" Zhao Qiyan happily grabbed the old man’s arm, and if she weren’t too short, she would have definitely planted a kiss on his face.
"Yufeng, do you want to stay too?" Elder Zhao looked at Zhao Yufeng.
Zhao Yufeng hurriedly replied, "Dad, let’s not bother Xiao Zhou. It’s better if they go back."
"Their staying has nothing to do with Xiao Zhou," Elder Zhao waved his hand impatiently, "Those who want to leave should leave; those who don’t want to leave can stay here and find somewhere to rest. When they’re ready, they can buy their own tickets to go home."
