An eight-year-old kid emptied his scumbag father's warehouse and followed his grandparents into

Suddenly thinking of something, Jing Chunxi looked up at the two brothers: "We plan to set off on the sixth day of the New Year. Do you have any plans?" When she said this, her eyes were not only looking at Chengrui and Chengzhi, but also turned to Xiao Deyuan.

There was a hint of concern in her eyes. She wanted to ask about their next arrangements, and also hoped that they could have a proper plan.

Xiao Deyuan was the first to stand up, his movements appearing somewhat anxious, as if he had been prepared. He quickly walked to the desk under the window at the back and pulled out a package.

The package didn't look big, and although the outer fabric was a little worn, it looked very clean. He walked over to Jing Chunxi with the package, opened it, and said, "Miss Jing, please help me deliver something to my wife and children." His tone was very sincere.

The package was opened, and the contents were revealed one by one. First, there were seven or eight books, which looked carefully selected, including poetry collections, historical biographies, and several enlightenment reading materials.

Next came a few small toys that children would love, including an exquisite cloth doll, a hand-woven garland, and a pair of small jade pendants. It was obvious at a glance that they were prepared for Ah Heng and Ah Yue, and the gifts were filled with Xiao Deyuan's thoughts and love for the children.

At the bottom of the package was a small mahogany box, and stacked on top of the box were two thick letters. Xiao Deyuan's mood became not very good at this time. He looked very lonely, with a hint of sadness in his eyes.

He picked up a letter and said in a trembling voice, "This is a newly written marriage certificate for my wife. It's also stamped with the government seal. However, it's not filed with the government office, so it's not completely clear."

"Please ask Miss Jing to tell Madam: I, Xiao Deyuan, will only have Tao Muwei as my wife for the rest of my life. No matter what happens in the future, I will never take a concubine. Let Madam wait for me." His words were very firm. This was a promise to them and a declaration to everyone of his loyalty to his wife.

Jing Chunxi did not take the letter that was handed to her, and the others did not intend to read it, but everyone believed it and was moved after hearing it.

I can't help but admire Lord Xiao for being a true man, unlike those scumbags who would abandon their wives and children when disaster strikes. He is even willing to risk his life to avenge the Yue family.

Cheng Rui and Cheng Zhi looked at each other, their eyes full of admiration and gratitude, and even deeply moved. Their uncle and aunt had sacrificed so much for their Tao family, and they didn't know if they could ever repay them in the future.

"The books and toys are for Ah Heng and Ah Yue. Miss Jing, please teach them a few words so that they can learn to read and write well and obey their mother."

Seeing Jing Chunxi nod, Xiao Deyuan finally felt relieved. He picked up the mahogany box again, but didn't open it. He simply stroked the surface of the box gently, as if feeling the warmth of the items inside. Then he said, "Inside is some silver and banknotes, not much. There is also a gold hairpin for my wife. I hope they can live a good life and wait for the day when they can be reunited."

As he said this, the tall man in his early thirties burst into tears. His tears rolled in his eyes, and finally he couldn't help but slide down and drip onto the package.

Several people couldn't help but be moved. Chengrui and Chengzhi couldn't help but have tears in their eyes. Chengzhi even walked forward and hugged his uncle from behind.

Xiao Deyuan gently wiped the corners of his eyes with his sleeve, and patted Chengzhi behind him to comfort him.

He retied the package and placed it on an empty chair next to Jing Chunxi. Then, he suddenly bowed to her. His action was so sudden that it caught Jing Chunxi off guard. When she realized what was happening, she didn't have time to dodge and had to accept his bow.

Xiao Deyuan stood up and said, "Miss Jing has been able to help me. Cheng Rui and Cheng Zhi have already informed me of the whole matter. I thank you in advance."

"If there is a future, I will definitely tie a grass ring, hold the whip and stirrup, and bring my whole family to repay the young lady and General Jing's Mansion." His voice was very firm and full of determination. After he finished speaking, he bowed again.

Jing Chunxi was shocked and waved her hands at him quickly: "Lord Xiao, there is no need to be like this. All this is..." There was a hint of panic in her words. She didn't know how to respond to Xiao Deyuan's gratitude. She really couldn't bear this kind of reason!

"Xi'er deserves it! Brother Xiaokang also thanks you for your great help. If Xi'er hadn't arrived in time, the people of Jian'an City would have continued to suffer. Brother Xiaokang, the people of Jian'an City would thank you." Jing Chunxi was interrupted by Xu Zize before she finished speaking. His words, eyes and gestures all stopped her from postponing and continuing.

"Prince, how can this be done?" Jing Chunxi blurted out the word "Prince" in a panic. Jing Chunxi almost patted her chest. Fortunately, Xu Zize didn't bow to her, otherwise it would have been really embarrassing.

Some people were dissatisfied with this address. Xu Zize frowned, feeling alienated.

"Xi'er, do you think you dislike Brother Xiaokang?" Xu Zize's face flushed red, and he was already a little angry, staring at her straight in the eyes. There was a hint of grievance in his tone, and also a hint of dissatisfaction.

Jing Chunxi sat down dejectedly and awkwardly. He could only lower his head and call out softly, "Brother Xiaokang." He had to correct himself immediately and express his apology, saying that his words had caused Xu Zize to misunderstand him.

In order to relieve the awkwardness, Chengrui said to Jing Chunxi: "Brother Chengrui will not go back yet. He will stay to help the prince and uncle. I will also give my aunt a letter of divorce tomorrow. Miss Jing will also ask my aunt to tell my aunt to rest assured that Chengrui will continue to study with my uncle and will never give up his studies. As long as the opportunity is right, he will definitely take the imperial examination again and bring honor to the Tao family." After all, he was nearly twenty years old, and his tone was calm and confident.

Finally, someone spoke up, and Jing Chunxi took the opportunity to ignore Xu Zize and look at Chengzhi. Chengzhi expressed his thoughts without hesitation: "I will go back with Miss Jing. I will take care of my aunt, Ah Heng, and Ah Yue from now on. Chengzhi will also study with my cousin." The teenager already had a sense of responsibility, and his tone revealed the necessary decisiveness.

Jing Chunxi nodded. Looking at their expressions, he knew that they must have discussed it long ago.

Turning around, Jing Chunxi saw Xu Zize still staring at him. He suddenly remembered something and pretended to rummage into his sleeve pocket, pulling out a scroll of calligraphy and painting.
