From the moment Yunfeng mentioned this matter, she had decided to let him leave the Qiao family.
It was to avoid him constantly thinking about the Jiang family. She also knew they would not forget their filial duty no matter how well she treated them.
Instead of letting it linger, she decided to let him go. However, the money he spent must be repaid to her because he now had the capability.
He had achieved merit on the battlefield, and the spoils of war were not few. It would be almost enough with the emperor’s rewards and returning the betrothal gift she gave to Miss Mu.
She could also reclaim his martial arts and literary talents.
But, considering the reason he wanted to return to his biological parents, she decided to leave that to him.
After more than ten years, Feng’er understood Qiao Mai’s temperament. Once she spoke, her words were not subject to change.
He knelt on the ground and kowtowed three times to Qiao Mai.
“I am unfilial.
“Go. Do whatever you need to do. I am not in a rush. After you settle things there, you can move if you want.”
“Yes!”
Feeling ashamed, Feng’er left the Qiao residence. As he informed Mu Rong about this, she was stunned.
“Mother asked you to leave?”
“Yes, she allowed me to acknowledge my roots. If Yun’er wants to leave, she agrees too.”
“This doesn’t match Mother’s character. What else did she say?”
“She said to repay her for all these years of spending.”
“Why are you such a fool?”
“Mother’s words cannot be taken back. I only wanted to ask her for leave. I didn’t expect it to turn out like this. Moreover, I am also considering returning to the Jiang family myself.”
“You!”
Miss Mu quickly handed the child to the nanny and hurriedly came to Yuexian Residence.
“Mother.” When she saw Qiao Mai, she immediately knelt.
Qiao Mai helped her up. “Get up. I will not take back my words. Instead of letting him be constantly obsessed, it’s better to fulfill his wishes. He is the eldest of the Jiang family, and now they have a successor. It’s better to let them prosper.”
“But didn’t he take advantage of you?”
“Take advantage? Forget it. Let him take advantage once. Back then, they were as weak as ants, wanting to use me to survive. What’s wrong with that? Now that they are paying me back, it’s fine. You are his wife. Follow him, but you can still find me if you have any problems in the future.”
“1- I don’t have the face to see you again!”
“Go back and get ready. Whether you return to Tianshui Town first or move, discuss it with your husband.”
“Mother!”
Qiao Mai ignored her and went back into the house. Seeing the closed door, Mu Rong could only stand up, wiping away the tears in her eyes.
She had chosen Yunfeng. When she returned to Tingfeng Pavilion, she saw him having someone organize the warehouse.
Seeing her return, Yunfeng looked embarrassed. “I’m sorry.”
“Why say these things? I’ve already married you. Naturally, I’ll go wherever you go. Let me arrange the things.”
Mu Rong had the servants move all her dowry and the betrothal gifts from the Qiao family to the courtyard. She calculated and found she had only a little more than before.
The in-laws gave nearly four hundred thousand taels of betrothal gifts, and she had thirty thousand taels of dowry. Besides the shop and the estate, everything was moved to Qiao Mai’s side.
Standing on the side, Yun’er was so angry that he wanted to beat Feng’er. But considering what his elder brother had done, he didn’t know what to say.
His elder brother had done such a thing, and it was inappropriate for him to stay in the Qiao family.
He found Xiao Qingling and told her about the matter.
“Wife, should we also return to my estate?”
“Why? What does it have to do with you?”
“My elder brother did such an ungrateful thing. How can I, as his real brother,
“Ah, you two are a pair of ungrateful brats. Back then, I married into the Qiao family for them, not for you.”
“I know. If you want to stay, then stay. I’ll go back on my own. I don’t have the face to see Mother.”
“If you regret it later—”
Helpless, Xiao Qingling had to let people pack up their things. She and Mu Rong had all their dowries and betrothal gifts moved to Yuexian Residence.
Qiao Mai was drinking tea in the room, aware of the commotion outside.
Two courtyards were vacated. In the future, she wouldn’t have to deal with the troubles of receiving and sending gifts.
Having experienced life and death, what couldn’t she let go of? If they wanted to leave, let them. If she stopped them, people would say she was petty.
On the same day, they moved out of the Qiao residence and into the estate rewarded by the emperor.
Yunfeng planned to return to his hometown that day, but he had to stay for two or three days to settle things, arrange manpower, and get everything in order.
When Old Mistress Wang learned about this, she hurriedly came to Qiao Mai.
“Girl, why did they leave the mansion?” “They can’t forget their biological parents. I want to fulfill their wishes.”
“Sigh, I can’t say anything about this.”
“Even you find it difficult to say, so I can only let them leave.”
“Are you angry?”
“No, if it were for other reasons, I could have dealt with them, but I can’t say anything about this. Fulfilling their wishes is the best, but I’m a businesswoman. I won’t engage in losing deals. Over these years, they have enjoyed my benefits and spent my money. I can’t let them continue while thinking about their biological parents, right?”
“Ah, what a pity.”
“Not a pity. I don’t care. Moreover, look at that pile in the yard; I even made a
profit.’
“Over the years, you have given more than that. Some things cannot be bought with money.”
“Let it be. Let them go.”
Qiao Mai walked into the yard, waved her hand, collected these things into her space, and handed them to Greeny. Old Mistress Wang left after confirming she was fine.
When Yuan Jiaqi learned about this at night, his brows furrowed so tightly they could pinch a fly to death.
“They should cut off all ties with the Jiang family when they recognized us as their parents. We treated them better than their biological parents over the years, but now that they have gained fame and fortune, they want to return to the Jiang family. This is unacceptable.”
“It doesn’t matter. After all, when I raised them, they were seven years old. They have feelings for their biological parents. I can understand that. As long as they are devoted to the country and the people, I will tolerate this matter.”
“Are they gone?”
“Yes, Yun’er left because he couldn’t face us after hearing what Feng’er did.” “Sigh, let them go if they want to. Don’t be sad about it.”
Qiao Mai glanced at him. “I’ve been through life and death. What’s there to be sad about?”
The next day, she asked the steward to bring the household register to the brothers and explained her intentions. After hearing it, the faces of the two brothers turned pale.
Qiao Mai asked them to transfer their household register to another surname. In the future, they were not allowed to use the Qiao surname and had to take their original names.
The steward took them to the court. They wanted to handle this matter quietly, but it was too big.
Their father was a first-grade capital official, and they were fourth-grade military officers. This was equivalent to cutting off relations with their parents. How could this matter be small?
The officer even informed Yuan Jiaqi for instructions. He didn’t say much and let them handle it according to what the steward said.
This matter immediately spread in the capital.
When the emperor heard about it, he summoned the two brothers to the palace.
The two knelt in the Imperial Study. The emperor’s face was stern. “I never thought that my subjects would turn out to be a pair of ungrateful men.” “Your Majesty, I didn’t think of leaving the Qiao family.”
“But you wanted the best of both worlds. You were using the Qiao family’s resources while thinking about your parents. No, I should say that you had long wanted to acknowledge your roots, but you couldn’t and didn’t dare to say it, right?”
“Yes, Your Majesty, I did have that idea, but I never thought of being ungrateful. I only wanted to burn incense, offer paper money, and bury my parents. That’s all..”
