"Okay, let's stop talking here. Don't run away alone again. It takes two months to travel by water from here to Yangzhou, and the world outside is not good."

"You, a little kid, were kidnapped and trafficked, and his life was taken away. It was so easy."

"You open the door, eat your food first, and then pack your things. I will personally take you back to Yangzhou early tomorrow morning!"

After saying these words, Yang Ruoqing leaned over and put the rice bowl in her hand at the door, then turned around and left decisively.

When she was gone, the door opened, and Dazhi poked his head out. He looked around to make sure there was no one there. He quickly took the rice bowl into the room and closed the door again simultaneously.

Under the corner not far away, Yang Ruoqing breathed a sigh of relief, as long as she was willing to eat, that would be fine!

Why!

She let out a long sigh, turned around and left.

After everyone finished eating, it was already getting dark, and twilight was falling outside.

They did not leave, but waited in the front hall for Yang Ruoqing to come.

Seeing Yang Ruoqing dragging her heavy steps over, Xiao An was the first to ask: "Sister, have you spoken to Dazhi? He shouldn't run away now, right? There should be a limit to anger, right?"

Yang Ruoqing shook her head: "You never open the door, no matter what I say, you won't answer anything."

"When I look at my child, I feel like I'm tired of being weighed down and don't want to stay at our house anymore, hey!" Blacksmith Luo sighed heavily and shook his head.

Da'an said: "Just let everything happen. Everything has its own fate."

Zuo Junmo sneered: "I think it's just a matter of habit. Life is too comfortable."

"If it were those children from poor families, whether biological or adopted, they would work with the adults in the family since they were young, working from dawn to dusk."

"Or if you learn a craft from a master, you will learn like a star, and you will not be able to sleep well if you don't have enough food, clothing, or warmth. If you can have a good meal during the holidays, you will be very happy."

"So, there is a saying that goes like this: A filial son emerges from under a stick. This ambition is caused by having too many good days and forgetting the roots."

"Qing'er, you have a good temper and patience with this child. If it were another adoptive mother, she would naturally become well-behaved after a beating." Zuo Junmo said.

Da'an also had a look of emotion on his face and said: "The fight between love and hatred makes people's hearts full of desires. I really didn't expect that someone as young as Dazhi would be able to do this. As he grows older, it will be even more difficult to control!"

"

Yang Ruoqing raised her hand to stop everyone from talking.

"Everyone, please stop talking. I have already made plans to send Dajie back to his hometown in Yangzhou tomorrow," she said.

"What?" Yang Huazhong exclaimed.

"The Chinese New Year is coming up in about ten days, why don't we wait until the New Year is over before giving it away?" he said.

Yang Ruoqing shook her head, "Strike while the iron is hot, I will either not send it to you, I will try my best to communicate with him, I hope he can understand."

"But I really can't communicate and it's a waste of the opportunity I gave him. I won't raise a tiger at home and send him away tomorrow."

"In the past few years, he lived in our family without worries, so even if he returns to Yangzhou, I will prepare a generous gift for him for the sake of mother and son, and let him take it to Yangzhou.

"

"As long as his family doesn't waste their fortune, it's enough to ensure that they have enough food and clothing for the rest of their lives!"

"Moreover, I will also include the money he spent for studying. As long as he is willing to work hard, he will definitely achieve something in the future."

Everyone was very impressed when they heard what Yang Ruoqing said.

Yang Ruoqing was smiling bitterly in her heart.

What is there to admire? I may have been very successful in other places, but when it comes to raising my ambitions, I have undoubtedly failed.

That’s all, don’t force it.

That night, Zuo Junmo naturally stayed at Luo's house.

He discussed with Yang Ruoqing and Da'an: "Qing'er, don't go see Dazhi off. I'm going to take my mother to Suzhou for the Chinese New Year this year. I'll take Dazhi along with me and send him to his hometown in Yangzhou, so don't go."

Now, let’s stay at home and prepare for the New Year!”

Hearing this, Yang Ruoqing was quite surprised.

"Brother Zuo, why do you and the old lady have to go to Suzhou during the Chinese New Year? Is there something wrong?" she asked.

Zuo Junmo smiled and said, "I have an uncle who is my mother's younger brother. He went to Suzhou many years ago."

"I do business and often travel to Suzhou, Hangzhou and Yangzhou, and I am also related to my uncle."

"My uncle used to come to visit my mother every year. This year, my uncle fell ill and couldn't come. He only sent his cousin to give my mother a New Year's gift."

"My mother went to Suzhou fifteen years ago. My mother said that my uncle would not be able to come this year, but she wanted to visit him."

"Back then, when I was a girl in my parents' house before I got married, I spent the Chinese New Year with my uncle. After I got married, I no longer had that opportunity, so I arranged the business in the shop and planned to take my mother to my uncle's house in Suzhou to celebrate the Chinese New Year until next spring.

I’ll come back when the weather gets warmer, so take your ambition with you.”

After listening to Zuo Junmo's words, Yang Ruoqing nodded repeatedly.

"Well, it is indeed a happy thing to reunite the old siblings. It is also enough to show your filial piety, Brother Zuo!" she said.

Zuo Junmo smiled slightly, shook his head and said, "I don't want the world to praise me for my filial piety. I don't care about these false reputations."

"I just want my mother to be happy, nothing else matters."

Yang Ruoqing nodded repeatedly, Da'an also looked full of admiration, and couldn't help but bow his hands to Zuo Junmo: "Brother Zuo is a role model for our generation!"

Zuo Junmo's eyes fell on Da'an, and he smiled modestly and said: "The number one scholar is truly a role model, a glorious ancestor, and a pillar of the country!"

Daan also smiled sheepishly, picked up the tea bowl in front of him and signaled to Zuo Junmo, who then picked up the tea bowl and took a sip.

Then, he looked at Yang Ruoqing, who was deep in thought, and said, "Qing'er, I've tried to keep what I should keep, and I've fought for what I should have fought for. If it doesn't work, just let it go."

"Perhaps this trip to send Dazhi back to Yangzhou and give him a change of environment may help him understand some principles of dealing with others."

"This is better than staying by your side, looking at Chen'er who is so outstanding, but he himself is not as good as him, and thus letting jealousy spread in his heart day by day."

Yang Ruoqing understood what Zuo Junmo said.

It's nothing more than letting Dazhi suffer the hardships, and you'll understand naturally.

Yang Ruoqing nodded, "Brother Zuo, don't worry. I, Yang Ruoqing, am polite beforehand and don't make decisions easily. Once I make a decision, I won't be sloppy or hesitant."

She stood up and bowed to Zuo Junmo and saluted: "Brother Zuo, I leave it to you to deal with the matter of ambition."

"This child is delicate. Please take care of me along the way. Qing'er can't thank you enough!"

Zuo Junmo hurriedly stretched out his hand to help Yang Ruoqing up, then quickly retracted his hand, keeping a certain distance.

"Qing'er, please don't be polite to me. We are sworn brothers and sisters. I have always treated Dazhi as a nephew. I will naturally take good care of him along the way. I must personally hand him over to his mother and brother.
