Rebirth of the Return of Chu

Qin Yuanyi was very efficient and had arranged everything in just one afternoon.

At night, he arranged for several men to keep vigil with Mu Yan. Mu Yan was a little unfamiliar with this uncle, but everything he did touched Mu Yan. She secretly made up her mind to repay her uncle and third sister.

Because Aunt Liu was only a concubine and her actual status was very low, not many people came to pay their respects. Even the legitimate sons and daughters did not need to wear mourning clothes, except Mu Yan.

Qin Mufeng came over at dinner time for the first time in his life. As the Marquis of the Marquisate, he should have been in charge of the overall situation, but he didn't want to take care of it at all and only wanted to have fun outside.

The reason he came here was because he heard that Qin Yuanyi was here. He was somewhat afraid of his uncle, so he came to show his face.

Seeing Qin Yuanyi, she felt a little scared for some reason, so she bowed with a stiff upper lip: "Uncle, I heard from my grandmother that you should take care of Aunt Liu's affairs. Thank you, uncle."

Qin Yuanyi looked at him and said in a tone of regret: "Mu Feng, if your father is still alive, he hopes to see you support the Qin family."

Qin Mufeng's face paused. He also wanted to do it, but he had no ability and could only listen to the arrangements of his mother and grandmother. He had no other choice.

So he said vaguely: "Don't worry, uncle, I will do it."

Then he looked at Mu Yan and said, "Fourth brother, please accept my condolences. If you need anything, please let the servants call me."

After saying that, he left.

Mu Chu looked at his back as he left and cursed in a low voice: "You are useless, and you are still a marquis."

Qin Yuanyi shook his head and looked at Mu Chu: "Chu'er, it's getting late. You should go back and rest. I'll stay with Mu Yan."

Mu Chu looked up: "I won't leave, I'll come with you."

Qin Yuanyi looked at her. She was wearing a casual dress and had messy hair. He said, "Go back and wash up, change clothes, and come back tomorrow morning."

Mu Chu then looked down at himself and realized that his clothes were indeed not very suitable. He replied "OK" and took Xiao Tao back to the general's mansion.

With Qin Yuanyi around, Mu Chu was not worried at all. She got up early the next morning and went to the Marquis' Mansion again. The gatekeeper was a little surprised to see Mu Chu wearing a plain white dress and even a white silk flower on her head.

After Mu Chu walked away, they whispered, "What does the third young lady want to do? She is the legitimate daughter, but she is still in mourning for her aunt." Then they started to make fun of her again.

When they arrived at Aunt Liu's courtyard, there were still only Mu Yan and some servants guarding it. Mu Chu looked at Mu Yan, whose face had become thinner in just one day, and said, "Yan'er, go eat something and have a rest. Third Sister will keep watch over you."

Mu Yan shook her head.

Mu Chu lowered his head and whispered a few words in his ear. He seemed to suddenly become energetic, stood up and said, "Okay, I'll go eat. Sorry to bother you, sister."

Qin Yuanyi was in the yard and saw the scene under the mourning hall. Mu Chu was dressed in white and had a gentle smile on her face, like a fairy on earth. Qin Yuanyi walked over and looked at Mu Chu: "Chu'er, how did you persuade him? I told him several times but he didn't listen."

Mu Chu moved closer to Qin Yuanyi, motioned him to lower his head, and whispered in his ear: "I said that only when you grow up and have enough food will you have the strength to seek revenge."

Mu Chu was very close to Qin Yuanyi, and his warm breath blew on Qin Yuanyi's face. For a moment, Qin Yuanyi couldn't control the ripples in his heart.

On the third day, Aunt Liu was to be buried. Because she was a concubine, she could not be carried out through the front door and could only be carried out through the back door. Mu Chu looked at this shabby funeral and felt deeply saddened by the sadness of this feudal world.

Fortunately, there was Qin Yuanyi. Since they couldn't enter the ancestral tomb, he asked someone to choose a piece of land with excellent feng shui. The tomb was also built very exquisitely, and it must have cost a lot.

This made Mu Yan's heart full of gratitude.

After returning to the Marquis' Mansion, Qin Yuanyi took Mu Chu to say goodbye to the old lady, who still pretended to be sad.

Qin Yuanyi simply said: "Madam, Aunt Liu is gone, and Mu Yan also needs someone to take care of him. I want to take him to my place."

Madam Qin said immediately, "Second brother, what do you mean by this? Do you think that I, as your stepmother, can treat Mu Yan badly?"

Qin Yuanyi was not angry either: "Sister-in-law, I didn't say that. It's just that Mu Yan, as my brother's flesh and blood, should go to the military camp for training. Have you forgotten the Qin family motto? If Mu Yan doesn't go, then Mu Feng will go."

When Mrs. Qin heard him say this, she changed her mind and realized that if she let Mu Feng go, firstly, she couldn't bear to see her child suffer, and secondly, if something happened to him, Mu Feng would have no children, and the newly-conferred marquisate would have no one to support it.

The old lady who had been silent the whole time spoke up: "Well, he is also a poor child. You can take him with you. I hope he can be successful."

After coming out, Qin Yuanyi and Mu Chu went to Mu Yan's residence. He sat there blankly looking at the empty yard. When he saw Qin Yuanyi coming, he immediately stood up and saluted.

Qin Yuanyi motioned him to sit down, then slowly said: "I went to see the old lady, and she has agreed to let me take you away. I want you to finish school first, and then send you to join the army in a few years. Are you willing?"

After hearing this, Mu Yan knelt down and kowtowed to Qin Yuanyi. She raised her head and said with a firm look in her eyes: "I am willing. Thank you for your kindness, uncle. Mu Feng will definitely live up to your expectations."

Mu Chu walked over and pulled him up, saying to him, "Go pack your things, we're leaving now."

Mu Yan nodded and went to pack some clothes and the two relics left by Aunt Liu.

Just as she was about to leave, Yin Xing chased out and suddenly knelt down: "Miss San, Master Si, please take me with you. My aunt is gone, and I have no more attachment to this Qin Mansion. I hope I can take good care of the Fourth Young Master for my aunt."

Qin Yuanyi looked at her and told Wang Xing: "Go find the lady and buy her back."

After hearing this, Ginkgo kowtowed and expressed his gratitude immediately.

Several people came out of Qin's house together and got on the carriage to the general's house.
