The next day, the group had entered the county town. He Quanxin and his wife, who watched over He family’s business in the town, came to greet them at the town.

Under the lead of He Quanxin, apart from He Yiming and the rest three, He Yilong had also followed.

He Yixuan, He Yiming, and He Yilong were the blood-related, direct descendants of He Quanming. Hence, upon meeting each other, both sides were naturally moved.

After settling down in the He family’s Transaction House, He Quanxin immediately got to the point and asked about the Feast.

He Quanming had said a few words in reply when Lin Wenyu led He Yiming and the other two out of the hall into the room inside.

Looking at Lin Wenyu and the three siblings leave, He Quanxin deeply sighed and said:

“Second brother, sister-in-law has suffered.”

He Quanming hesitated a little before slightly nodding, “Probably has.”

To manage He family’s business, He Quanming and his wife had no other choice but to leave the He family estate. According to the rules of the family, children after the age of five must leave their parents and live alone. However, if the couple lived in the manor, they could atleast have seen their children everyday. However, living in the county town, they could hardly see their children a few times throughout the entire year.

This time, the Lord Master allowing He Yilong to join the group was undoubtedly allowing the entire family to gather together by taking the advantage of Cheng family’s Banquet.

Hence, He Quanxin and He Quanyi also turned a blind eye to it.

Lin Wenyu although was not some mistress from a big family, in Tai Cang county, she was a pearl of a small family.

Lin family was also a martial clan that had its legacy. However, the clan members were very spa.r.s.e, and by the time of Lin Weyu’s generation, this legacy had already been cut off.

After she married He Quanxin, both husband and wife united themselves to push the He family to the top. In the process of He family founding their current footing, their contributions could not be overlooked.

Although Lin Wenyu’s cultivation was inferior to He Quanxin’s, she was still a cultivator who had attained the seventh layer’s peak. If she did not have to give birth to the three siblings, she actually might not have been inferior to He Quanming.

Since she was meeting her children after so long, she was not aloof as usual. Although the three siblings had gradually grown up, in her eyes, they were undoubtedly still small.

“Mother, while coming to the town, big sister Ling asked me to bring some cosmetics and jewellery. Let’s go and buy some.” He Yilong said while softly pulling on her mother’s hand.

Although the mother-daughter did not live together, they were even closer than many other mothers and daughters who always lived together.

Although the rules set by the Lord Master were rigid and bared emotions, they were not completely unreasonable.

Lin Wenyu softly stroked her daughter’s hair and unhesitatingly said:

“Come, we will go right now,” Subsequently, she raised her head and glanced at her two sons, “You two also rarely come to the county town. Come, roam with us a little.”

He Yiming and his brother naturally did not have any objection. Perhaps Tai Cang county’s county town was unknown in the district, but in their eyes, it was already a bustling place.

Having the temperament of youngster, He Yiming was filled with curiosity.

Casually talking along the way, the four individuals entered the most bustling street of the town.

Lin Wenyu had been living here for several decades. She knew every street of this region like the back of her hand. Knowing that her sons and daughter rarely come here, she had naturally devised a proper route beforehand, so that they could enjoy as much as possible before returning.

The flouris.h.i.+ng city broadened the horizons of He Yiming as expected. He Yixuan had visited the county a town a few times before, thus, his conduct was somewhat proper. However, this was the first time for He Yiming and He Yilong. They ogled all around throughout the entire way. For them, it was simply too much to take in.

Observing his sixth brother being so excited, He Yixuan suddenly asked:

“Yiming, you think this place is fun?”

“Of course, I think so,” He Yiming said without giving it much thought. However, the next moment, he felt something amiss. Turning his head, he asked, “Third brother why did you ask such a question?”

He Yixuan slightly smiled and said:

“Sixth brother, you should know that although the main branch of the Cheng family are in the county town, anyone from their younger generation who hopes some achievements in cultivation is strictly prohibited to live in the town with the main family before the age of twenty.”

He Yiming slightly started before asking:

“Then, where do they live?”

“In the countryside; with the nature and far away from the disturbances of mundane world.” He Yixuan said in a low voice.

He Yiming didn’t reply, seeming as if he was contemplating before he asked:

“Third brother, how do you know?”
