After Old Man Mu saw Wanqing, he put down the beans. Looking at Wanqing, he said with a voice filled with guilt, ”Wanqing girl, I'm sorry, grandfather didn't take good care of you.”

”Grandfather, you're not wrong, it's a normal thing for grandfather to choose to give up on us siblings and go find third uncle. Neither of us will blame Grandfather, we only hope grandfather does not come and disturb our brother and sister's lives, all right?” Grandfather, you're not wrong, it's normal for me to choose to give up on us siblings and look for third uncle, from now on, both of us have no relation with Mu Family, so we will not blame Grandfather.

Wanqing knew that the original owner was actually very angry at this grandfather of her. After all, if the grandfather hadn't looked after his son and couldn't take care of the two of them, the current situation wouldn't have happened. However, the original owner didn't really hate him, which was why Wanqing used such a polite tone to speak to the Old Man Mu.

Zhang Hongyang, who was standing behind Wanqing, took a step forward, walked in front of Old Man Mu, and said to him, ”Old Man Mu, if you're really sorry, then go back and see if Wanqing and her little brother can get what they deserve. Don't let them suffer too much.”

Wanqing had to rely on her own hands to support her brother. Even if Xiao Qing's brain had those menu that could be sold for money, how long could she last? Or was owning land the king's way?

Old Man Mu frowned as he looked at Wanqing, as he wanted to hear what Wanqing had to say. However, he only saw Wanqing's pair of eyes staring at him with absolute clarity.

But Wanqing, will you really not go back? ”After all, you are a girl. How are you going to survive if you take your little brother with you?”

”Does grandfather not know what kind of life I have in the Mu Family? I do all the work in the house every day, but I can't eat a single mouthful of hot rice in two or three days. Go back and check if the grass in the garden is all clean. That's because I'm really too hungry. I don't have any food, so I can only eat grass roots and have to think of ways to make food for Dou Dou every day. When we need grandpa the most, where are you? Now that we have finally escaped from the Mu Family, Grandpa, do you still want us to return?

Grandfather, I, Wanqing, will say this right now. Everything in the family, I have written clearly in the contract, I do not want anything. But from today onwards, I no longer have any relationship with Dou Dou and Mu Family.

He knew that no matter what, Wanqing would not bring Dou Dou back today. ”Forget it, since this is the case, Grandfather has nothing to say, and can only hope that you two can live a good life. Alright, I'll go, I'll go!”

Zhang Hongyang still wanted to say something, but he was stopped by Wanqing. Dou Dou looked at her grandfather's lonely back with a bit of heartache, ”Grandfather, I'm sorry!”

”Dou Dou, I'm sorry. It's not that big sister doesn't want you to return with grandpa, it's just that grandpa's heart is unable to care about us. Don't blame big sister for being ruthless.” Wanqing did not want Dou Dou to carry the burden in his heart at such a young age. This would be detrimental to his growth.

Zhang Hongyang sighed, and shook his head, ”Sigh, in the end, Old Mu still cares about his reputation, and in the future, it's very possible that you guys will cause trouble. Wanqing, are you prepared?” As a Village Head, he naturally knew the true meaning behind the words that he hesitated to return from the Old Man Mu. He naturally understood Wanqing's thoughts, and had no choice but to say that Wanqing was a smart girl.

Wanqing held onto Dou Dou's hand and walked towards the direction of Sixth Granduncle's house, saying, ”Uncle Village Head, I understand what you mean, but don't worry, I know what I'm doing.”

”Aiya, Wanqing, it's good that you're back. Your grandfather, Dou Dou? Didn't you go back with your grandfather? Grandfather even thought that you left! ” After all, Sixth Granduncle was already old, so he was naturally not as strong as the man in his fifties. Seeing Wanqing bring the person back, he secretly heaved a sigh of relief.

”Yes, grandfather. I will not leave elder sister. I will protect elder sister well.” Dou Dou raised her head and said.

”Grandfather, we have something to discuss with you. I wonder if you have time?” Wanqing said.

”It's the Sixth Granduncle. Let's talk inside, we brought good news with us.” After Zhang Hongyang finished speaking, Sixth Granduncle saw that Zhang Hongyang was still holding onto two large pieces of cloth.

”Village Head, you came to my house with a gift? Is there something I can help you with? ” The Sixth Granduncle led them into the house and went straight to the point.

In this era, sugar was a precious commodity. If not for Village Head coming over today, the brother and sister pair would be here, and wouldn't be able to use this tiny bit no matter what they said.

After Village Head finished his explanation, he looked at Sixth Granduncle and said, ”I came here today on behalf of the Wanqing girl to find you. Isn't your family in the east side of the village selling a piece of bamboo forest?”
