Chapter 797 - 797: You Won’t Leave Them
He was actually feeling very conflicted with this investigation.
Jiang Yue also knew that if this matter were not handled well, it would hurt Liu Guixia and the others.
They had raised their son for many years and thought that he would be their son forever. Suddenly, one day, this very son might leave them and call someone else family.
“Actually, you didn’t take the initiative to look for it. You just knew about your background. In order for everyone to be safe in the future, you had no choice but to find evidence to prove your background.” After a pause, Jiang Yue continued, “Besides, you won’t leave them. You’re still a member of this family. They are all good people. If they are sad, they must be afraid that you will leave them, right?”
Xue Yan felt much better after being reassured by Jiang Yue. He smiled slightly and said, “Yeah, I won’t leave them.” Even if he didn’t have a previous life, he would never leave them.
“However,” Jiang Yue added, “It’s best that you don’t tell your mother and the others for now. They won’t be able to feel at ease and might be afraid that something might happen to you.”
“That’s true.” Xue Yan nodded.
As soon as he answered, he saw a farmer in his forties with two patches on his body pulling a bundle of grass to feed the animals in the cowshed.
“There’s someone there. Let’s go and ask him.” As Xue Yan said that, he held Jiang Yue’s hand and walked over.
Zhu Village was not rich. Every family had thatched roofs, and some of them were very dilapidated.
“Hello.” Xue Yan cupped his hands and bowed to that farmer before asking,
“Do you know where Zhu Laicai is? We’re looking for him.”
This was the first time someone had greeted this farmer in such a manner.
The farmer was at a loss, but he quickly replied, “Oh, over there.”
Xue Yan and Jiang Yue looked in the direction the farmer was pointing at and saw a small three-room house. The thatch on the roof looked as if it was about to fall to the ground. It was unsightly.
“Thank you.” Xue Yan and Jiang Yue both thanked him.
This farmer was still at a loss. He didn’t know what to ask Xue Yan and Jiang
Yue, so he hurried them, “If you want to find him, go quickly.”
“Yes.” After acknowledging it, Xue Yan and Jiang Yue thanked him again before going to Laicai’s house.
There wasn’t a courtyard in front of Laicai’s house. Xue Yan and Jiang Yue hadn’t even walked over when they saw an old woman coming out of the house shakily. The old woman’s clothes were all patched, and she held half a bowl of chaff in one hand and half a bowl of corn in the other. The bowls were a little chipped, and she was about to enter the kitchen as if she was going to cook dinner.
Jiang Yue and Xue Yan looked at each other, feeling that this old woman should be Xiuhua.
“Don’t add too much corn.” Immediately after, an old man covered in patches chased after her shakily. He was still coughing a little. “It’s not enough. You know that. We can’t always let the villagers help us. They know how hard it is for us.’
In the end, the old man coaxed half a bowl of broomcorn from the old woman’s hand like he was coaxing a child.
“Hello.” Jiang Yue and Xue Yan walked over and greeted the old couple politely.
It was only then that Laicai and Xiuhua noticed them.
Laicai immediately grinned. “Hi, where did you guys come from? Why haven’t I seen both of you before? The sky will turn dark soon.. Where is your family? They must be worried sick!”
