"Uncle Bao's cousin!" When Aunt Cheng heard this, her face blossomed with a smile." Good, good, good. No wonder you're so handsome. So you're Uncle Bao's cousin. Sit, sit quickly."”
Luo Cheng did not stand on ceremony and sat down.
Cheng Yaojin also wanted to do it, so Aunt Cheng directly gave him a slap.
"What are you doing?"
"Sit." Cheng Yaojin scratched his head.
"What are you sitting for? Go get a bowl for cousin.”Aunt Cheng glared at Cheng Yaojin and turned to Luo Cheng with a smile." Cousin, don't laugh at me. My Yaojin is just insensible."”
Luo Cheng smiled and shook his head.
He didn't know how to refute this cousin.
This Aunt Cheng seemed uncultured, but she was very smart.
When his mother was able to break through Jeju City, she risked her life to save Qin Qiong's family. She was kind-hearted.
After Luo Cheng arrived, he excitedly asked Cheng Yaojin to bring Luo Cheng a bowl. It could be said that he was warm and hospitable.
Calling him cousin had pulled Luo Cheng closer to his family.
Luo Cheng looked up at Cheng Yaojin, who was holding a bowl on the counter.
It was not without reason that this guy could live long enough in history.
It could not only be summarized as good luck.
"Brother Luo, here you go." Cheng Yaojin placed a large ceramic bowl in front of Luo Cheng.
He sat down at the side.
"Cousin, what's your name again? Aunty didn't hear it clearly just now, say it again.”
"My surname is Luo, my name is Cheng, and my name is…Shixin.”
Luo Cheng paused.
It was rare for him to say his full name.
"Oh, Shixin." Aunt Cheng chuckled and said," Tell me how my sister-in-law, Uncle Bao, and Qin An have been all these years.”
Cheng Yaojin's ears perked up.
In this world, if there was anything more important than food in his heart.
The first was naturally his mother, and the second was Qin Qiong's family.
This included Madam Ning, Qin An, and Qin Qiong.
Therefore, at this moment, his rare mind was not attracted by the food on the table. He listened carefully to Luo Cheng's words.
Luo Cheng smiled." Auntie, they've been doing well these past few years. However, Qin An…died of illness a few years ago. Cousin became the chief of the Li City Army yesterday. He can be considered to have some achievements.”
"They've been talking about you and biting gold all these years, but they've been struggling to make ends meet. They don't have the conditions to look for you. Now that my family background is good and I have some ability, they asked me to look for you.”
"Alright, alright, alright. I knew that sister-in-law and the others wouldn't forget about me and Yaojin.”Aunt Cheng sighed and recalled the past. She couldn't help but sigh." These years, we've been living quite well with our strength.”
"But I've been worried about Sister-in-law and Uncle Bao. I'm relieved that they're doing well.”
Luo Cheng looked around.
Well, life seemed to be pretty good.
At least, it was more than twice as good as the Qin family.
He wondered how Qin Qiong would feel if she came here to take a look…As expected of a person who was willing to work. No matter where she went, she would never go hungry.
"Uncle An is dead…"
Cheng Yaojin's eyes darkened when he heard this.
Qin An had taught him the axe technique, and he had also made the wooden axe when he was young.
Cheng Yaojin lost his father when he was young. To him, Qin An was both a teacher and a father.
He did not expect that after not seeing each other for so many years, when he heard about the other party again, they were already separated by heaven and earth.
Instantly, the innocent him became depressed. His big, fleshy face drooped, and he was extremely sad.
"Don't be sad, my dear. Although your Uncle An is dead, don't you still have Uncle Bao and Aunt Ning?”Aunt Cheng quickly comforted her.
"That's right, there's still Uncle Bao and Aunt Ning!”
Cheng Yaojin's spirits were lifted, and his mood became better again.
"Mother, my mountain has been cut down again. I need to rest for ten days. In these ten days, why don't we go and see Aunt Ning and Uncle Bao?”
he said excitedly.
"Really?" Aunt Cheng's eyes lit up.”
"It's true!"
"Alright!" She also laughed and said," I also want to see Sister-in-law and Uncle Bao. Back then, I left in a hurry and didn't bring many things with me.”
"More than ten days." Luo Cheng suddenly interrupted. Under the curious gazes of Aunt Cheng and Cheng Yaojin, he said lightly," I'm actually here to pick you and Yaojin back to Li City."”
"Just stay with Aunt and take care of each other.”
"The fallen leaves return to their roots.”
He thought that as long as he said this, Aunt Cheng and Cheng Yaojin would definitely agree.
However, after they finished speaking, the two of them fell silent. They stammered and hesitated.
"Auntie, what's wrong? Don't you want to go back?”Luo Cheng asked curiously.
" No, I really want to go back, but..." Aunt Cheng looked around longingly." This house is a waste. It's quite well built."”
Luo Cheng couldn't help but laugh.
He didn't expect that there would be such a thing. It turned out that he felt that it was a waste of the house.
He waved his hand." Auntie, don't worry. As long as you return to Li City, I'll help you sell this house."”
"I've also bought a new house in Li City. When the time comes, you and Aunt will move in and live together.”
"Really?" Cheng Yaojin asked impatiently.
"It's true." Luo Cheng nodded.
"Good!" Aunt Cheng immediately agreed." Shixin, when are we leaving?”
As long as there was a place to live, the place they were living in now could be sold....
Aunt Cheng basically agreed without any request.
After so many years, she had long wanted to return to Li City.
" I don't believe you. Well... Do you know why Yaojin and I came to Turtledove Town..." Aunt Cheng said shyly.
She did not dare to say it out loud. After all, Cheng Yaojin had killed a soldier and committed a serious crime.
If Luo Cheng didn't know about this, then he wouldn't know. It was safer if one less person knew.
"Aunty, you're saying that in order to protect cousin, Yaojin killed a soldier, right?”
Luo Cheng was stunned and laughed.
"That's right, that's right." Aunt Cheng quickly nodded. When she heard that Luo Cheng knew, a smile appeared on her face again.
Since he knew about this, he must be one of them.
Her heart was completely at ease.
" You also know that Yaojin killed someone back then. Although so many years have passed and no one probably remembers this matter, isn't this just a precaution? If Yaojin and I are recognized by others, I won't be affected. I'm already so old. It's fine if I die, but Yaojin..."
She glanced at Cheng Yaojin." Yaojin is so young. He hasn't married yet. He hasn't left any descendants for the Cheng family. Nothing can happen to him."”
Cheng Yaojin's expression changed.
"Mother, what are you saying!"
He shouted,"Nothing can happen to Mother. At most, we won't return to Li City."”
"And…and…I don't want to marry a wife. I just want to stay by Mother's side and find a girl.”
Aunt Cheng glared at him." What's the point of staying by your mother's side all the time? It's better to marry a wife and have a grandson as soon as possible."”
"No, I don't want a wife!"
"You must marry her!"
"No!"
"Definitely! Beard!"
"No, I can't! Yes!"
Things changed and suddenly became a discussion about Cheng Yaojin getting married.
The corners of Luo Cheng's eyes kept twitching, and his cold face was almost unable to keep up.
He was a cool and handsome man, but he couldn't control his image.
These two people…were poisonous.
He took a deep look at Aunt Cheng and Cheng Yaojin, then stretched out his hand and said,"Hey, hey, hey, auntie, stop talking about getting married. We haven't done our business yet.”
"Official business? What official business can I have?”Cheng Yaojin's eyes widened." Not marrying a wife is a serious matter."”
"Wrong, marrying a wife is the proper thing to do. Child, why aren't you willing to marry a wife?”Aunt Cheng also widened her eyes and glared back fiercely.
The two of them kept bickering.
"Didn't we talk about returning to Li City?”
Luo Cheng said slowly after a moment of silence.
Aunt Cheng and Cheng Yaojin were stunned for a moment, then immediately revealed an awkward but polite smile.
"Oh, right. We were just talking about returning to Li City. It's all the child's fault for confusing Auntie.”
"It's clearly you who's going overboard. You only know how to get a wife.”Cheng Yaojin retorted unwillingly.
No matter what, he would always listen to his mother, but when it came to marrying a wife, Cheng Yaojin had always been stubborn and never relented.
"Alright, alright." Luo Cheng was worried that this would turn into a dispute between the two of them again, so he quickly said," Auntie, bite Jin. I know about your matter very well. It's not a big deal."”
"It's been so long since that incident. Just like what auntie said, there might not be anyone who remembers.”
"Secondly, my family still has some connections. Even if Yaojin kills a soldier now, it's not a big deal. So, don't worry.”
It was more than just a little relationship.
He was simply the emperor of Beiping!
However, Luo Cheng did not say it out loud.
When he was outside, he had to keep a low profile.
He couldn't possibly tell the other party directly that he was the son of King Luo Yi of Beiping, the young duke of the entire Beiping.
That would be too embarrassing and not fit his character.
Cheng Yaojin's family had saved Qin Qiong before. Based on this identity, as long as Cheng Yaojin was not a vicious person, he would be able to rely on the Beiping King's Mansion for the rest of his life.
Qin Qiong was Qin Shi's only nephew. With Qin Shi's guilt towards Qin Qiong and Madam Ning over the years, she would definitely repay her when she knew about Aunt Cheng's matter.
It was that simple.
"Are you really alright?" Aunt Cheng asked suspiciously.
"I'm really fine." Luo Cheng nodded proudly.”
"Moreover, Cousin is already the commander of the Li City Army, so there are some guarantees.”
Aunt Cheng and Cheng Yaojin looked at each other and finally believed that they could return to Li City.
"Alright, pack up!"
Luo Cheng let out a long sigh of relief.
It was finally done.
He looked at the busy Aunt Cheng and Cheng Yaojin and felt the muscles on his face ache slightly.
……
On the other side, Qin Qiong was dressed in military attire, with a pair of golden maces at his waist. He walked towards the military camp with his head held high and chest puffed out.
This time, I will make contributions!
However, when he entered the military camp, his face had completely darkened.
"My name is Wang Meng. You can call me Brother Meng.”
The last half-naked man looked at him with contempt and said indifferently.
"Come, greet our new station chief.”
"Greetings, station chief." The other two chuckled when they heard this.
"Come, let's continue playing."
The three of them lowered their heads and continued playing dice.
Qin Qiong froze on the spot. These people…completely did not take him seriously!
He was so angry that his entire body was trembling, but there was nothing he could do.
After all, he had just taken office and knew nothing about the situation here. He was at a loss for what to do.
It was also because of his lack of experience that he had forgotten what it meant to kill the chicken to warn the monkeys.
He left the military camp with a depressed expression and walked towards Jia Liu's shop.
