1288: Chapter 1288: Xun Huiâs Father (6) 1288: Chapter 1288: Xun Huiâs Father (6) Xun Qianchengâs calves started to tremble as soon as he laid eyes on Yang Ruxin and Gu Qingheng.
He had inquired and only came because he heard that this young lady was not at home, so why such bad luck?
He hadnât even managed to get a word in with his daughter alone, so how come this harbinger of doom returned?
Actually, he had never thought of looking for this daughter he had sold years ago, and he hadnât anticipated finding her either.
However, when Xun Juan returned to her maternal home, he overheard from the doorway their discussion about Xun Hui, and thatâs when he realized that the girl he thought dead hadnât perished and was now well-off, with plentiful silver in her household.
Thus, he was moved to find his daughter with the intent of being supported in his old age.
After discussing it with his wife, the Mao Familyâs excitement was beyond control.
Their son needed to marry, and they needed silver everywhere.
Besides, it was the Xun Family who had raised Xun Hui to adulthood.
After all, had they not sold her, could she have married into such a good family and achieved this affluence?
Therefore, Xun Huiâs success was entirely their doing, and she should be grateful and voluntarily come to honor them, ideally turning over her entire family fortune to their son.
Yet, Xun Qiancheng wasnât stupid.
Though he knew Xun Hui was soft-hearted, he didnât believe she would forget the grievances of the past, so he decided to inquire thoroughly first before acting.
Unfortunately, when they really went to ask Xun Gangâs family, they claimed ignorance, merely laughing it off no matter how they pressed, nearly provoking the Mao Family to curse in frustration.
In the end, the couple decided to come to Dapu East Village themselves to inquire.
It was quite a coincidence that upon entering the village, the Mao Family met Lin Yueâe.
As soon as she found out it was about Xun Hui, she immediately became scheming, and when she heard that it was her family, she was delighted.
She was absolutely envious, jealous, and resentful of the Yang family, so the possibility of someone causing trouble for them filled her with immense joy.
Thus, she spilled everything she knew, with particular emphasis on how wealthy Yang Ruxinâs household was.
The fact that Xun Hui was not a child of the Xun Family had not been publicized, so only a few people were aware of it, and to outsiders, Dong Wenxiu was regarded as Xun Hui, with Xun Qiancheng still her father.
Even Xun Qiancheng himself had kept secret the Bai Familyâs purchase of another child back then, so the Mao Family was even less aware of it.
She simply assumed that Xun Hui was Xun Qianchengâs daughter, meaning she herself was a senior relative.
Therefore, Mao Family found Lin Yueâeâs words incredibly stirring.
In truth, Xun Qiancheng had already brought the Mao Family and his son Xun Gui for two visits, but they dared not approach the small building when they discovered it was guarded.
Today, they had also come to try their luck when they saw a few children playing at the entrance.
They noticed them, and Xun Qiancheng claimed he was Xun Huiâs father, here to find his daughter.
However, today Xun Hui was visiting Aunt Hehua with the Feng Family.
Aunt Hehua was far along in her pregnancy, so those on good terms would visit her for chats.
Erni was at home, and upon hearing Zhou Ying say that her grandfather had arrived, she was initially confused and hurried out to look, not recognizing him.
She had no choice but to send Xiaoyun to the village quickly to find Xun Hui and Sanni.
Villagers who heard the news also followed over.
Upon seeing Xun Qiancheng, Xun Huiâs expression immediately changed, but when Xun Qiancheng saw Xun Hui, he fell to his knees and started to cry.
Then the Mao Family and Xun Gui also began to cry, wailing about how miserable their own family was and how hard their lives had beenâŠ
Their crying left Xun Hui helpless and even the onlookers who came for the spectacle were stupefied.
Fortunately, at this moment, Yang Ruxin returned.
