He never found her all these years.
Who would have thought that a young lady from a wealthy family would live on a mountain, become a hunter and even change her name!
What happened? What made her abandon her name?
“Aunt Yiyun, what did you say?” Zheng’er asked.
“It’s nothing. I was saying that the flowers on the mountain will bloom soon. I’ll pick a lot of flowers for you then, okay?” she asked, smiling at the two little ones.
“Okay!” Zheng’er and Rong’er answered in unison.
…
Over the past few days, An Jiuyue noticed something strange about Qian Yiyun.
She would stare at her blankly whenever she had nothing to do. In fact, she would be in a trance. An Jiuyue had no idea what she was thinking.
Wei Na also found it strange and muttered, “Master, does she think her brother forgot about her because he hasn’t returned to pick her up?”
“Maybe,” An Jiuyue replied seriously, thinking that it was true.
She interpreted Qian Yiyun’s recent strange behavior as worry that her brother could not find her because he did not know where she was.
“Don’t be sad, Xiao Yiyun. Your brother must have been held back by something important. He’ll come and fetch you soon. Didn’t you say that the military camp is very busy?” she comforted her.
“I… I’m fine.”
Qian Yiyun wanted to ask her sister-in-law why she was unwilling to acknowledge them on multiple occasions.
However, she felt that it was better to keep this a secret.
If she really did not want to see her brother, she might leave with the four children at once and change their names. They might go to a place her brother would never find even if he cried!
However, she was also worried. She wondered why her brother was not here yet. She had been dying keeping this a secret!
“Sister-in… Sister Jiuyue, are you going to town tomorrow?” she asked.
“Yes. I’ve picked a lot of mushrooms, so I’m going to sell them in town.” An Jiuyue nodded.
In reality, the mushrooms in her space had piled up into a small mountain. Although she could exchange them for points in the Points Mall, she still wanted to check out the market price in town.
She also wanted to sell a wild boar for money. There were so many wild boars in her space, and Wei Na kept harping on how it was not worth exchanging them for points.
She decided to sell them one by one.
“Do you want to come with me?” she asked.
Qian Yiyun immediately shook her head like a rattle drum.
“I’ll pass. I’ll stay at home and watch over Xiao Zhou and Xiao Xing. They shouldn’t be left alone.”
To be honest, she was worried that her sister-in-law would send her away in town after selling the mushrooms and earning some money.
I have to stay here and wait for Big Brother to arrive. I’m going to make sure my sister-in-law has no chance to escape!
“Okay then. You stay home.”
On the other hand, An Jiuyue did not really want her to come along. She was only being polite. After all, she had to take the mushrooms and wild boar out of her space.
“It’s getting late. Go wash up and sleep. I want to get up early tomorrow.”
“Okay.” Qian Yiyun replied and returned to the room An Jiuyue had arranged for her.
