Chapter 627 Arrival in the County

Upon hearing this, Ling Silang instinctively asked, "Does Uncle want to see my father about something?"

"Come and bring some silver to your father. The interest rates on loan sharks are too high right now. Paying back some first will reduce the amount."

Ling Silang originally wanted to say no, but considering what he had discussed with Du Mingxian, he said, "My father is at home now."

"Your dad didn't go out?"

"No."

Uncle Ling was quite surprised. "Your mother can't stand seeing your father now. Seeing him will upset her. It's really strange that you let your father stay today."

“Maybe it’s because we’re back. I told my mother that if she doesn’t keep an eye on my father, he’ll go to the doctor to give her acupuncture. My mother must be scared now, because she’s keeping a close eye on him and won’t let him go out.”

Uncle Ling felt both heartbroken and impatient. In the past, his younger brother couldn't stay at home and was always outside. Now, he's probably in a similar situation, unable to go out or leave his sister-in-law's sight.

"That's good too. It's better than leaving home before dawn and not being able to return until after dark."

Ling Silang was also helpless. "Uncle, go inside and find my father. I'm going to the county first."

"Alright, alright, you can go now." Uncle Ling said, turning to leave, but then he saw Du Mingxian holding a swaddled baby in her arms and stopped in surprise. "This is..."

Du Mingxian remained silent, while Ling Silang hurriedly replied, "Uncle, this is our child."

"You had a baby? That's wonderful, wonderful!" Uncle Ling was overjoyed. Upon seeing this, Du Mingxian immediately took the baby over, and Uncle Ling's face was filled with delight.

At that moment, Du Mingxian seemed to see the meaning of inheritance and understand what inheritance meant.

Uncle Ling looked at the baby with delight and quickly said, "Hold him tight, don't let the baby catch a cold."

"Ah."

Uncle Ling turned to Ling Silang and said, "Good lad, you've done something big."

Ling Shilang smiled shyly this time, unsure of how to respond.

"Go quickly, you all go, I'm going to find your father."

Ling Silang and Du Mingxian sat in the carriage. Du Mingxian was still saying, "Shall we go to the county to see about the usury? But whoever borrowed it should be responsible for paying it back."

“This matter is not urgent. I want them to investigate and see who set this trap for our family.”

“Chunfeng and the others are all skilled individuals trained by the Crown Prince’s residence. Investigating these matters is quite simple for them, and it will definitely be easy for them to find out. They are taking advantage of our family’s lack of background and the items they ordered are not very detailed. They will be able to find out quickly.”

"I think so too."

"Let's find out first."

"Ah."

As they talked, after arriving in the county, they went to the Xu family's house together first.

Even after many years away, the Xu family remains the same Xu family.

When Qiu Shu arrived at the Xu family's door, she stepped forward and knocked. Wang Fu opened the door, but seeing that she was a stranger, he didn't even open it. "Who are you?"

Before Qiu Shu could speak, Ling Silang got off the carriage first. Wang Fu was shocked and delighted to see Ling Silang, and hurriedly came out, his voice filled with surprise, "Young Master."

At this moment, Du Mingxian had already helped Ling Silang's men down from the carriage. When Wang Fu saw Du Mingxian, his eyes reddened and his voice choked with emotion, "Miss."

"It's been years since I last saw you, and you've become quite fond of crying," Du Mingxian teased.

Wang Fu immediately sniffed, "No, no, I was just so happy to see Miss that I couldn't help myself."

Are my mother and the others there?

"Grandma, Master, and Miss are all busy at the shop; only the Old Madam is at home."

"Then I'll go in and see Grandma first."

"Okay, I'll go tell Miss Biao that you're back right away." Wang Fu said and ran off.

Du Mingxian chuckled and shook her head, "This title 'Wang Fu' is a mess."

"Let's go in."

The group went inside, where two servants were busy in the courtyard, whom Du Mingxian had never seen before.

The two women were shocked to see strangers suddenly enter. The woman, who appeared to be around thirty years old, stepped forward and asked, "Who are you?"

Is my grandmother inside?

Upon hearing Du Mingxian's address, the two immediately recognized her identity. "Reporting to Miss Du, the old lady is inside."

"I'll go in and take a look."

Grandma Xu was practicing calligraphy in the house when she heard the conversation outside. She quickly put down her pen and walked to the door, where she saw Du Mingxian carrying the child.

"The girl is back."

"grandmother."

"Come in quickly." Old Mrs. Xu immediately beckoned her in, and didn't forget Ling Silang either, "Silang, come in quickly too."

Several people went inside, but Chunfeng and the others did not go in. Instead, they stood in the courtyard. One of the two servants who had been in the courtyard served tea and then withdrew.

There were only three people in the room.

Grandma Xu looked the two of them up and down. Seeing that they were both alright and were holding a small child in their arms, she was in a great mood. "You're finally back. If you hadn't come back, they would have been worried sick."

"Thank you grandma."

"Why thank an old lady like me? This is all thanks to your own hard work."

Upon hearing this, Du Mingxian knew that Grandma Xu must have found out about their situation in Ping County through her own channels. "Thank you, Grandma, for helping us keep our family at ease."

"Yes, it's nothing. I know about your situation, but I just didn't tell them the truth. Now that you're back safe and sound, I would have been very upset if you hadn't come back safely."

"I'll probably feel guilty about this for the rest of my life."

Du Mingxian understood. "Thank you anyway. With you sitting in the back, we feel at ease in the front. When we were in the capital, we were also fortunate to have the care of His Highness the Crown Prince. If it weren't for His Highness the Crown Prince's help, we might not have been able to come back to see you alive."

The crime of deceiving the emperor is enough to punish him.

"It's good that you're back, it's good that you're back. Let's not talk about those things." Grandma Xu waved her hand. "If we really want to thank you, this old woman should thank you properly. If it weren't for you, this old woman wouldn't be able to have such a happy old age."

"Grandma, we are family. Please don't say that. It's too formal."

Du Mingxian was genuinely grateful to Old Madam Xu. If it weren't for Old Madam Xu, the Crown Prince wouldn't have helped them like that. Even if she had saved the Crown Prince's life, she wouldn't have given them people and support when they left the capital.

That's the future crown prince; he's not so easily swayed by others. A large part of the reason for this is because of Old Madam Xu.

Grandma Xu gently shook her head. She understood what Du Mingxian meant, but she was even more grateful to this girl.

Thanks to this girl's efforts, she now has sons and daughters, granddaughters and great-granddaughters, a house full of grandchildren, and more importantly, both of them are exceptionally filial.

This life is worthwhile.

She liked this kind of life without scheming and intrigue, full of harmony, and happy every day.
