Transmigrated As A Delicate Bundle Of Luck For A Farming Family Novel - Chapter 411

411 Severing the Former Fate

This exam lasted for three days. It was slightly more than half the time of the previous exams, but the pressure was several times greater.

The examination gathered the top students from the various states of the Great Zhou Dynasty. If they took the top students from them, the pressure could be imagined.

This time, Su Sanlang and Madam Zhao personally sent them into the exam hall.

“Let’s go home too. Xiaoling and Xiaolu stay at home. Your father and I will go to Jinghong Restaurant to talk to Mr. He about the collaboration.”

!!
Madam Zhao held Su Xiaolu’s and Su Xiaolu’s hands and said gently.

Su Xiaoling and Su Xiaolu nodded.

After accompanying his two daughters home, Su Sanlang and Madam Zhao went out again.

Su Sanlang held Madam Zhao’s hand. When they were far away, Su Sanlang said, “Darling, have you thought it through?”

Madam Zhao smiled gently at Su Sanlang. She nodded and said, “Sanlang, I’ve thought it through. Let the past be the past. Our family has our own life. Let’s treat this trip as a complete resolution.”

They hid it from their children and did not go to Jinghong Restaurant, but to the Yan Residence.

Madam Zhao did not want to be Yan Mian again. She only wanted to be Madam Zhao.

She couldn’t remember what Qi Xinyue did to Yan Mian, but she couldn’t forgive her on Yan Mian’s behalf. Qi Xinyue committed suicide out of guilt and that was enough. She hoped that this matter would end just like that and there would be no more entanglements.

The Yan family had the Yan family’s life to live, and so did they. The two sides didn’t have to have any more interactions and just lived their own lives.

Su Sanlang nodded. He smiled and held Madam Zhao’s hand tightly.

When the two of them arrived at the Yan Residence, the manservant came to ask, “Who are you looking for?”

Madam Zhao said gently, “I want to see your master. Please help me inform him that my surname is Zhao.”

The manservant saw that Madam Zhao was gentle and polite. Although her clothes were a little plain, her expression was not inferior at all. The manservant did not dare to be negligent and hurriedly entered the residence to report.

In the Yan Manor, Yan Qingyun’s face was cold. Below him were Yan Zhiyuan and Yan Zhenzhen. They had come to ask for Qi Xinyue’s burial as soon as possible.

As usual, Yan Qingyun refused to relent. He said that unless the Su family agreed, Qi Xinyue could not be buried.

Yan Zhiyuan clenched his fists.

Yan Zhenzhen wiped her tears and said indignantly, “Didn’t Father say before that he wanted to save my mother some dignity? Why can’t you keep your word? Now, not only did you not let my mother rest in peace, but you even agreed to the Su family’s humiliating request?”

The Su family was determined not to see him. It was obvious that they wanted to make things difficult for him.

How could she watch her mother’s corpse be whipped and burned to ashes? No one could do that.

“Father, Mother has already paid the price for what she has done. When a person dies, the debt will be paid.”

Yan Zhiyuan said angrily.

Yan Qingyun frowned. He looked at Yan Zhiyuan and Yan Zhenzhen and said coldly, “It’s only been a few days. Why are you in such a hurry? There’s no news from the Qi family yet. Will it be fine if you bury her now? If the matter isn’t resolved, I’m afraid she’ll be dug out even if she’s buried.”

Yan Qingyun looked at his impatient and scheming children and felt frustrated. Why didn’t they think more about it?

Qi Xinyue was dead and she was guilty, but the matter had not been completely resolved. The Qi family’s anger had not subsided, and there was still no news from the Su family. If she was buried now, it would make Qi Xinyue’s suicide useless.

There was nothing a person could not do in a fit of anger.

Burial was not the end. If she was dug out, she would be humiliated several times more.

Looking at his insufficiently wise children, Yan Qingyun felt stifled.

But Yan Zhiyuan and Yan Zhenzhen thought that he was avoiding them on purpose.

Yan Zhiyuan said coldly, “Father is just being heartless. If you don’t want to, who would dare to touch my mother’s grave? You’re just thinking too much about the benefits.”

Yan Zhenzhen looked at Yan Qingyun in disappointment.

Yan Qingyun was frustrated. He said sternly, “Do I value benefits too much? You’re the ones who don’t know much about the Qi family!”

He knew General Qi’s temper. When he was young, when someone said that his wife was illiterate, not only did he submit a memorial to the emperor, but he also complained to the emperor in the main hall about whether a woman like his wife was an idiot.

The Qi family were all martial arts practitioners. The Qi family had inherited General Qi’s protective personality.

Was he not afraid of offending the Qi family?

Yan Qingyun looked at Yan Zhiyuan. Although Yan Zhiyuan was kneeling, his eyes were not weak at all. He asked coldly, “Father, don’t you think too highly of benefits? The Qi family, the Qi family are barbaric. Father is afraid that there will be endless trouble if you offend them, right?”

Yan Qingyun was so angry that he could not even breathe properly. He pointed at Yan Zhiyuan with a trembling finger. “How could I give birth to such a stupid thing like you!”

“Yes, that’s right. I’m extremely stupid. That’s why I haven’t caught your eye since I was young.”

Yan Zhiyuan straightened his neck and rebuked Yan Qingyun. If his mother had not schemed for him when he was young, Yan Qingyun would not have taken a second look at him.

If his illegitimate brother had popped up like a bamboo shoot, there would have been no place for him in this residence.

Yan Zhenzhen said with tears in her eyes, “Father, please let mother rest in peace.”

Yan Qingyun’s face turned pale with anger. These two children had never caught his eye. They were extremely stupid.

Love and profit were tied together. It would not disappear just because they ignored it.

They did not understand his painstaking efforts at all.

Yan Qingyun said coldly, “I’m also someone who’s about to die of old age. If you don’t care about affecting your descendants and insist on burying your mother now, then bury her. It’s too late for regrets in the future. Don’t blame me for being heartless again.”

The siblings did not listen to his analysis at all. Forget it, he was really too tired.

On the surface, they thought that Qi Xingfeng was reckless and useless. In the future, he would definitely die on the battlefield. However, they ignored the calm and wise Qi Xingzhi. With Qi Xingzhi around, the Qi family would not be defeated so easily.

The schemes of everyone in the Qi family had all been left to Qi Xingzhi. With his scholarly examination, Qi Xingzhi would definitely not be inferior to anyone in the future. It was clearly such a simple and easy thing to see, so why couldn’t his son and daughter understand?

“Father, don’t worry. I’ll bear the consequences alone.”

Yan Zhiyuan lowered his head and avoided Yan Qingyun’s gaze.

Yan Zhenzhen wiped her tears and kowtowed.

Yan Qingyun closed his eyes in disappointment. Making enemies had never been the best strategy. Since ancient times, stubbornness and ignorance had always been the worst of the worst. One day, he would regret it!

He couldn’t persuade them. He couldn’t.

“Master, someone wants to see you.”

At this moment, the manservant came in to report.

Yan Qingyun waved his hand tiredly. “No.”

The manservant said hesitantly, “Master, she said her surname is Zhao and she’s a woman. There’s also a one-eyed man beside her.”
