He's spoiled rotten; that wolf cub knows how to flirt and be affectionate.

[Main Mission: To change the tragic fate of the original owner and Zhao Yang.]

Side Quest: Capture Qingfeng Village.

Qu Yi was somewhat surprised; this time, there was not only a side quest, but it also sounded like something that ordinary people couldn't do.

The Qu family was a well-known "wealthy family" in Ansang Village. Although they couldn't compare to the rich and powerful families in the city, they were still quite well-off compared to the surrounding villages.

Everyone had only heard that the Qu family were once a declining merchant family who had left with some savings. They moved to Ansang Village and built a courtyard house. In addition to the main house facing south, there were two side rooms on each side. In the village, this was a luxurious courtyard house.

The Qu family has two children.

The eldest son is named Qu Jinshu, and the youngest daughter is named Qu Yi.

Qu Jinshu was a scholar, and he was also handsome and elegant. Unfortunately, he accidentally fell into the water in winter. He was rescued when he was barely alive, but the Qu family spent a lot of money and in the end, they could not save him.

The couple planned to have another child, but they couldn't conceive. They became anxious and sought medical advice everywhere.

The couple lost their lives because of this medicine; they don't know what kind of medicine it was, but they all died.

After the Qu couple passed away, only Qu Yi and Zhao Yang remained in the large courtyard.

Zhao Yang was adopted by Qu Jinshu and his wife a year after Qu Jinshu passed away. Actually, it wasn't really adoption; they just gave him a place to eat and made him a servant.

Zhao Yang's family was also outsiders, having fled from war. His father was a hunter, and the family lived a fairly good life. One day, Zhao Yang's father and mother went up the mountain together and never returned.

The villagers all said he must have died in the mountains.

Zhao Yang was only six years old and had no relatives in the village, so the Qu family decided to raise him.

Although the original owner was not spoiled as a child, she was still more delicate than the girls in the village. Moreover, she was exquisitely beautiful, like a porcelain doll, and many boys in the village admired her.

Especially after the Qu couple passed away, their wealth and house fell into her hands. The original owner was generous and was admired by her peers in the village.

Although Zhao Yang lived in the Qu family, he was only a servant in name, and he was responsible for the original owner's daily life.

The original owner disliked Zhao Yang, and Zhao Yang didn't necessarily like the original owner much either. Later, Zhao Yang disappeared, and when they met again, he had already gained high position and power, while the original owner had fled there because of famine.

Because of her appearance, she was sold into a brothel. The original owner of the body refused to submit and committed suicide by cutting her wrists on the very night she was bought.

Qu Yi looked at the cobweb-covered roof beams and asked, "How did Zhao Yang die?"

A red-bellied squirrel perched on my shoulder, engrossed in gnawing on a pine cone, spat out the bits of meat and replied, "High positions and great power mean you die at the hands of your political enemies."

Qu Yi walked out, and just as she reached the door, she suddenly remembered something.

That is.

—Zhao Yang is lying in bed right now!

Because the original owner disliked Zhao Yang, he not only treated him badly and made him work as a servant without paying him, Zhao Yang had to go out and find work on his own. The day before yesterday, the foreman took advantage of his young age, deducted his wages, and even beat him up.

Zhao Yang later developed a limp because he hadn't fully recovered from this injury.

Qu Yi pursed her lips.

She hates messes.

Take a moment to think.

He lifted his foot and walked out.

The cramped room was originally a woodshed. The original owner disliked Zhao Yang and wouldn't let him live in the side room, so he had no choice but to clean up the woodshed and move in.

This stay lasted for several years.

The pain from the wound startled the boy, dressed in simple clothes, awake from his dream. His dark eyes stared blankly at the roof beam above him. Gradually, his pupils dilated, and his muscles trembled slightly.

Musician.

This is the Qu family!

He will never forget!

But, how is that possible?!

The boy brushed the sweat-dampened hair from his forehead, looked around, and the familiar surroundings struck a chord deep within his heart.

He clutched his chest.

Still beating.

Wasn't he dead? How could he be back here? Is he dreaming?

He pinched his leg hard, hitting the wound squarely, causing his face to contort in pain. However, he didn't cry out; instead, after a few seconds of stunned silence, he burst out laughing.

came back.

Surprisingly, he's back.
