e need."Second, I want another ten acres of uncultivated land in the village.When Wang Zhuang heard the second condition, a smile no longer reached his eyes, but he still remained silent.The elder smi...Unexpectedly, Yuanbao's little incident finally uncovered several deep-hidden spies. These individuals had been completely silent before, indistinguishable from the others who came to work.
But they were all spies planted in the manor by others to gather information. Because they were timid, and coupled with the fact that there had been such a brutal fight in the manor recently, killing so many people, these few individuals were too afraid to act rashly.
These past few days, the manor had finally quieted down. I thought the storm had passed, and before I could even find out any important news or contact anyone outside, I was dragged out because I was too gossipy and annoyed the young master.
Speaking of which, Mu sighed as he held his grandson.
The moment she thought about her son and daughter-in-law's current state, she felt anxious.
"Don't listen to what people are saying, Yuan Bao. Your mother and father would never abandon you. That will never happen."
Yuan Bao obediently nodded his little head, looking at Grandma's furrowed brows. He straightened up and used his small hand to smooth out the wrinkles between Po Mu Shi's brows, saying with concern:
"Grandma, don't worry. Why don't we think of a way to help Mom and Dad"
"Mother doesn't want to leave Father at all. Why would she agree to a divorce"
Even a simpleton like Lian Yuanbao can see what's going on, yet the two parties involved are acting more awkward than ever.
Mrs. Mu gently grasped her grandson's small hand and kissed it, smiling as she did so.
"The adult world is more complicated, some things require a reasonable step for them to make up."
Yuanbao nodded vaguely.
"Grandma, do you have any good ideas yet"
Of course, otherwise why would grandma insist on having him come over to sleep with her She must be trying to secretly discuss ways to get mom and dad back together.
Mu gently tapped her grandson's nose. This little rascal, he really couldn't hide anything from her.
That's how we do it.
Two generations whispered to each other, plotting a reconciliation. On the other side of the courtyard, two others furrowed their brows, deep in conversation about the same matter.
"To be honest, I think big brother's approach is too roundabout. Sister-in-law is a straightforward person who knows what she wants. At this rate, he'll never win her over with all this hesitation."
"To be honest, I think it's best if I write a letter of self-reflection for my older brother. He can memorize it and say it out loud in front of his sister-in-law."
"Just add some more touching love words. It's okay to clear up any misunderstandings right here, face-to-face."
Yulian glared at Zongbai angrily.
"Come up with something more original, will you"
"Your sister-in-law is far from being that vulgar, she wouldn't write a self-confession letter and speak such touching words."
"You, who haven't even held a girl's hand, you can still write love letters, Second Brother"
Yu Lian laughed and teased Zong Bai, Zong Bai pinched his sister's cheek, the siblings didn't say a few words before they started getting physical.
So what good ideas do you have
"Did you see your sister-in-law's expression at the dinner table tonight Since your older brother came back, I haven't seen her smile happily. She's either spacing out or looking glum every day."
The atmosphere at home became somewhat oppressive, it was really uncomfortable.
When she mentioned this jade lotus, she sighed.
"I have an idea, but it depends on you cooperating with me."
"Look at your older brother now, always elusive like a dragon. Although he wasn't very talkative back then, he was still friendly with us."
"It's not like now, Big Bro is completely different. Though he still doesn't talk much, I just feel like there's something in between us, like a barrier."
Yulian racked her brains, trying to find the right words to describe this feeling.
Suddenly, it occurred to her.
"It's kind of like how I feel with Big Brother Zong Hu."
"They are siblings, but not that close anymore. It's completely different from before."
This feeling, Zongbai also understands.
The difference between relatives and siblings.
Because the eldest brother has amnesia, he forgot about his days at Nomura.
The siblings fell silent for a moment. Just then, Zongyu returned, seemingly having stood outside the door for some time.
When the siblings turned their heads and saw their eldest brother standing at the doorway, their faces were completely unsure of what expression to make. Embarrassed, ashamed, uncomfortable.
Zongyu walked in as if nothing had happened, sitting down calmly and composedly in front of the two people who were at a loss.
Zhong Bai and Yu Lian looked at each other, not knowing how long their elder brother had been standing there or how much of their conversation he had heard.
No matter which sentence it was, it shouldn't have been heard. No, it's that the two of them shouldn't have spoken about their own older brother like this.
No one knows better than them how much their older brother has suffered for this family, for their siblings, since childhood.
Everyone can speak ill of the eldest brother, except for them.
Both of them shamefully wanted to apologize, but in the moment they raised their heads, Zongyu spoke first.
What a great idea
What what a good idea
The elder brother suddenly asking like this left both of them confused and bewildered. They couldn't quite follow his train of thought.
"Didn't you just say that as long as I cooperate, you guys have good ideas to help me make amends with Jinxiu"
Zong Bai reacted and nodded hastily.
"Yes, yes, just now Yu Lian did say that."
He slapped Jade Lotus's hand, urging her to speak quickly.
When Yu Lian was slapped by her second brother, she also came to her senses.
"Yes, I have an idea."
"Actually, my sister-in-law cares deeply for her brother. It's just that she's so strong and independent, used to handling everything herself, so she doesn't realize how important he truly is to her."
"If we could find a way to make our sister-in-law realize how important her husband is, maybe she would open her heart and accept him."
The two brothers listened with serious expressions, but seemed to understand only partially.
Even Zong Bai, who is known for his intelligence, couldn't quite grasp the meaning behind his sister's words.
"What does it mean to realize the importance of your older brother again"
"The eldest brother is already very important in our family."
Yu Lian immediately glared at her second brother, hoping he wouldn't speak and would just keep quiet.
It's not about the importance to our family, it's about your sister-in-law!
"Oh, second brother, you don't understand, please don't interrupt. I haven't finished speaking yet."
Zong Yu pulled Zong Bai behind him, making him stand at the back. He looked at Yu Lian with a very serious expression.
"Go on."
Big brother's attitude now has both siblings relieved. Even if big brother lost his memory, he still cares about his sister-in-law, otherwise he wouldn't have this expression.
To make the sister-in-law realize the importance of the older brother, we can actually do the opposite.
Zong Bai couldn't hold back, "How can you go against the grain"
"This time, no one stopped him from asking," Yulian replied.
"Second brother, think carefully, has your elder brother and sister-in-law's relationship always been smooth sailing since they got married"
"Even when someone like Hu Ailan came out before, the older brother didn't show her any face, and his wife never looked down on her."
To sum it up, the relationship between the two has always been too smooth. The sister-in-law has never felt any sense of crisis from her brother-in-law.
Zong Bai nodded, as if half understanding. He was still puzzled in his heart. When did his younger sister become so knowledgeable about matters of love between men and womenit's better for us.""If you don't give them something, they'll just keep blocking your doorstep and demanding food and silver. Do you not feel bad about giving it to them"Even Zong Pingkang said, "Tha...
