“Shuisheng!”

Jiang Laoqi excitedly called out to Xiao Zeyu. They had grown up together and were good brothers. Jiang Laoqi kowtowed to the ground. Although he knew that Shuisheng was different today, Jiang Laoqi still kissed him to death when he saw him. He ran over and hugged and patted him on the back. He was delighted.

“Have you recovered?”

Xiao Zeyu was still as friendly to Seventh Master Jiang as in Peach Blossom Cove. He held Seventh Master Jiang’s arm with concern to check on his injuries.

To protect the coal mine, Jiang Laoqi almost lost his life. He was his good brother.

“With Su Qing’s medicine, what injury can’t be healed? Where’s Su Qing? I have to thank her for saving my life!”

Jiang Laoqi patted his chest and smiled brightly. He shouted for Su Qing to thank her.

Su Qing heard their conversation in the room, and the corners of her mouth curled up slightly. The Jiang family was all good. She thought of her good disciple, Zhong Yong.

Zhong Yong was alone now. It was time to find a girl who could take care of him and love him.

Su Qing’s gaze fell on Jiang Yuyan. During their escape from famine, Su Qing had an excellent impression of Jiang Yuyan. This girl was bold and careful, had a good personality, and never lost her temper. She was also brilliant and learned quickly.

In terms of appearance, although she was not that stunning, she looked very bright and beautiful. She also looked good when she smiled. Her face was charming.

As she thought about it, she suddenly realized that she hadn’t seen Zhong Yong. They had met once on the battlefield. Zhong Yong made a significant contribution by capturing Urhan alive. Let such a fierce general go to the coal mine to pull coal would be a waste of talent.

“Has anyone seen Zhong Yong?”

Thinking of Zhong Yong, Su Qing looked at Jiang Yuyan and asked. She felt that with this question, she would know if this girl was interested in Zhong Yong.

“This time, Big Brother Zhong must be in front of his mother’s grave!”

As expected, Jiang Yuyan knew Zhong Yong’s whereabouts like the back of her hand. She answered Su Qing’s question right away.

Xiao Zeyu heard Jiang Yuyan’s words and thought about his godmother’s tragic death. Xiao Zeyu felt a wave of sadness in his heart. She had barely enjoyed her life for a few days before Qiu Yongkang killed her.

Thinking about how Qiu Yongkang had killed his godmother, Xiao Zeyu felt nothing but disappointment and hatred towards Qiu Yongkang. He would be willing to cut him into a thousand pieces if he were the mastermind behind the Northern Barbarians’ attack on Mo City.

This city still had young and old men from the Peach Blossom Cove. Did he not know the conduct of the Northern Barbarians? How many people in the city could survive if Mo City was breached?

If the Northern Barbarians took Mo City, he would be a sinner and would not be able to repay the debt of blood even in ten lifetimes.

Su Qing and Xiao Zeyu decided to pay their respects to their godmother. They had been running around too much and hadn’t paid their respects to their godmother. No matter what, they had to pay their respects this time.

Xiao Zeyu ordered his guards to prepare some offerings for him: pastries, wine, chicken, fish, and incense paper. The two of them changed into plain clothes. Xiaoying also wanted to go with them. She went to Jiang Yuyan, who found an excuse to go with her. Aunt Li and the Jiang father and son also wanted to accompany them. The line of worship became vast and mighty, just like the day of Madam Li’s funeral, when the entire village went to send her off.

Su Qing and Xiao Zeyu rushed to Godmother’s grave and heard Zhong Yong’s cries from afar. “Mother, Yong’er misses you. How can you bear to leave me alone? Yong’er is so lonely. Yong’er wants to go with his mother.”

Zhong Yong’s heart-wrenching cries brought tears to the eyes, and the listeners were heartbroken. Even Su Qing, a hard-hearted person, felt her heart tighten when she heard it. Her brows were tightly knitted together. Su Qing’s eyes were swollen and painful when she thought of the scenes with her godmother.

Xiaoying was crying but dared not go to her godmother’s grave. She always felt that she was a sinner.

Qiu Yongkang’s letter had a significant impact on her!

Jiang Yuyan’s heart ached when she heard Zhong Yong’s cries. When she heard that he would follow his mother, the little girl became anxious and ran towards the grave without caring. As she ran, she shouted,

“Big Brother Zhong, you can’t do anything stupid!”

Su Qing and Xiao Zeyu also rushed to the grave. They saw Zhong Yong crying so hard that his snot was frozen. He was leaning against his mother’s tombstone alone. That scene was heartbreaking for anyone who saw it.

“Zhong Yong, big brother is here.”

Xiao Zeyu walked over and held his excellent brother’s shoulder. He looked into Zhong Yong’s eyes and said firmly,

“You won’t be alone. From today onwards, you will contribute with your brother and be your family, okay?”

Zhong Yong’s eyes lit up when he heard Xiao Zeyu’s words. He excitedly pulled Xiao Zeyu’s hand and asked him hopefully,”

“Brother, do you want me to go to war with you?”

“It’s true. I’ll take you wherever I go in the future.”

Seeing Zhong Yong like this, Xiao Zeyu’s heart ached. ‘Why did he feel like an abandoned child, helpless and lonely?’ He felt he didn’t care enough for his brother, leaving him to bear the pain of his mother’s death alone.

“Alright, I’ll follow you. I’ll go wherever you go!”

Zhong Yong nodded vigorously, turned around, and kowtowed before his mother’s grave. “Mother, Big Brother will take me to war. I listened to you and made contributions. Tell Father that I will bring honor to my ancestors and make you proud.”

When everyone heard Zhong Yong’s words, their impression of him changed drastically. In the past, they all thought that he was heartless, but now, it seemed that he would not be a person in the pool in the future. He would be a master who could achieve great things.

Jiang Yuyan looked at Zhong Yong with eyes full of love. Father Jiang and Aunt Jiang shook their heads when they saw their daughter’s infatuated gaze. They asked a matchmaker to help introduce a few good guys, including Li Daniu. With the two families knowing each other well, they could rest assured to marry their daughter off.

However, Jiang Yuyan refused to agree, no matter what. She would shave her hair and become a nun if forced into a corner. She would run to Zhong Yong’s house every day. She was not afraid of gossip. The old couple would have lived in vain if she did not understand her opinions.

However, they disagreed. According to etiquette, Zhong Yong was in mourning and had to mourn for three years before he could marry. In three years, Yuyan would become an old lady. What if Zhong Yong refused to marry her?

However, Yuyan was like a turtle who had given up on marrying anyone. If Zhong Yong didn’t want her, she would become a nun. Zhong Yong saved her life so she would be his for the rest of her life.

The old couple did not agree in the past, but today, they feel it was not bad. Based on what Zhong Yong said, he was also worth marrying.

But now, it was all their wishful thinking. Seeing that Zhong Yong had no intention of getting married, could it be that they would make the lady wait for three years without knowing his mind?

No one knew what the Jiang family was thinking. Everyone’s attention was on Zhong Yong. Su Qing went over and patted Zhong Yong’s shoulder.

“Godmother doesn’t want to see you cry either. Stop your tears and act like a man.”

“Yes, Master.”

Zhong Yong immediately wiped his tears when he heard his master’s words. He looked so sad and comical.

Su Qing and Xiao Zeyu arranged the offerings and knelt before Godmother’s grave. “Godmother, Su Qing, and I are here to see you. Don’t worry. With Su Qing and I around, Yong’er won’t be alone.”

Xiao Zeyu solemnly promised his godmother. Xiaoying knelt in the distance and kowtowed to her godmother. She sobbed, blaming herself and missing her godmother. With her godmother around, she was like a baby who had her mother’s love. When her godmother left, she also felt very lonely.
