After the eldest sister-in-law of a fishing family became a widow, her disabled younger brother-in-l

Chapter 254 Guangyi Hall

"Why? As long as Mo'er's real father comes back, won't Mother become Mother again?"

Jiang Qimo's little brows furrowed, his voice full of confusion, "Mother lied to me before, saying that Father was dead, and that she had to pretend to be Father so that I wouldn't be bullied. But Father is clearly not dead, so why did Mother..."

Although she was somewhat reluctant, Jiang Yuyue interrupted him and lowered her voice.

"Mo'er, it was wrong of your mother to lie to you before, but..."

There were many things she couldn't explain to her child right now, so Jiang Yuyue could only lie again, "Your father thinks your mother isn't pretty, so he wants to find you another mother. Your mother can't bear to be separated from Mo'er, so she can't let him find out about you."

At this point, Jiang Yuyue softened her tone, speaking with a mix of threat and feigned pitifulness, "If he finds out, he will take Mo'er away from her mother. Does Mo'er want to be separated from her mother?"

"do not want!"

Jiang Qimo answered without hesitation and quickly hugged her, "Mo'er, don't be separated from your mother!"

Seeing this answer, Jiang Yuyue felt a little helpless but her heart softened, and she immediately hugged him back. "Alright, alright, so as long as Mo'er stays away from that person, that's fine. And don't tell him the truth about Mo'er. You did a good job just now. From now on, I'll call you Dazhuang here. Remember that?"

"it is good."

Jiang Qimo nodded solemnly again, and Jiang Yuyue breathed a sigh of relief as the matter was finally resolved.

"Oh my! Mo'er and Wu'er are here!"

Old Master Shen had just returned from outside and greeted her with a smile as soon as he entered the courtyard. Jiang Yuyue was startled by his words and quickly pulled her grandmother into the house.

"Grandma!"

Jiang Yuyue lowered her voice, walked into the house and looked around to make sure no one was there before speaking, "Shuozhou is a place where all sorts of people mingle. It seems that my enemies are also in Shuozhou. This time, I used ointment to change Mo'er's appearance."

"To avoid being recognized, whether in public or in private, Grandmother and Grandfather can no longer call Mo'er by his real name. You have to call him Dazhuang instead, Jiang Dazhuang."

When Jiang Yuyue said such a somewhat comical name in a serious tone, Old Madam Shen couldn't help but chuckle, but she readily accepted it.

"Alright, alright, I'll let the old man know in a bit."

Madam Shen looked at the mother and son with affection. Although the two younger ones could not show their true faces, they had not seen each other for a long time, and Madam Shen was quite happy at this moment.

"You've been traveling for so many days, so go inside and get some rest."

Madam Shen advised, "I'll go to the kitchen and make you two something to eat first."

Jiang Yuyue didn't make any excuses this time. After all, they were indeed quite tired after traveling for so many days, and they had just had a battle with Song Jinglan, so they were really exhausted.

When Song Jinglan returned to his military tent, for some reason, he kept thinking back to the figures of the father and son he had just seen.

Although he doesn't have any concrete evidence to prove that the two people have any relationship with Jiang Yuyue, it's rare to see so many members of the Jiang family gathered together, which makes him want to continue investigating.

"Moonshadow."

Song Jinglan called out, and a figure immediately appeared, "Your subordinate is here."

"Go and keep an eye on Guangyitang."

Song Jinglan said calmly, her emotions hard to discern, "Especially He Wu and his son, we must keep a close eye on them."

"Yes."

Moon Shadow gave a light bow and instantly disappeared.

When Jiang Yuyue and Jiang Qimo woke up after a nap, they were awakened by the noise outside.

As soon as she stepped outside, she saw the shop assistant she had sent out to buy grain that morning return, and he was now directing people to carry bag after bag of grain inside.

"Son."

The shopkeeper immediately came forward when he saw her come out. “There is not much grain left in the vicinity of Shuozhou. I have run around to several places and only managed to buy ten shi of grain. I wonder if you would like me to go to a more distant place to buy more?”

Ten bushels of grain...

Jiang Yuyue glanced at the grain piled up in the corner of the courtyard. There were many refugees in Shuozhou, and this amount of grain would not last for more than a few days. Since she had the intention to give alms, she should naturally prepare more.

"Let's go buy some more."

After pondering for a moment, Jiang Yuyue replied, "This grain is enough to last for several days. You can go to a more distant place to buy more."

After receiving the reply, the shopkeeper hurriedly went out again. Shen Congshan was brewing medicine in the house. Listening to their conversation, he understood Jiang Yuyue's thoughts.

"As expected of my grandson, Shen Congshan."

Shen Congshan was quite proud of Jiang Yuyue's actions and said with a smile, "For such a righteous deed, the people of Shuozhou City will surely be grateful to you."

"Grandpa, you flatter me too much."

Jiang Yuyue smiled and said, "Whether I am grateful or not is secondary. As long as I can help these displaced people, I will be satisfied."

Just then, the aroma of food wafted from the kitchen. Old Madam Shen called the family to eat, and after the meal, Jiang Yuyue prepared to go out.

"Where is Dad going?"

Seemingly because of the previous intimidation, Jiang Qimo now felt even more attached to Jiang Yuyue, saying, "I want to go with you too!"

Jiang Yuyue felt helpless, but she didn't refuse. Rather, she felt more at ease having the child by her side given the unstable situation in Shuozhou.

The things Jiang Yuyue needed to do on this trip were quite simple.

Since it was about making donations, it would definitely require manpower. Jiang Yuyue's maternal grandparents were getting old, and they were already overwhelmed with treating the injured at Guangyi Hall. Therefore, Jiang Yuyue did not intend to trouble them with the matter of making donations.

Following her memory, Jiang Yuyue took Jiang Qimo's hand and arrived at the entrance of the Shuozhou government office. Today, she had spent a lot of money and generously waived the cost of the medicine, which left a deep impression on the yamen runners. As soon as she reached the entrance, someone immediately came to greet her.

"Young Master He!"

The constable stepped forward with a smile, "Young master, are you here to see Lord Zhao? He is inside right now. Let me show you in."

Jiang Yuyue nodded. As soon as she stepped into the government office, she saw that it was filled with straw mats and had taken in many displaced refugees.

Zhao Xingde was leading people to distribute dry rations to them when he heard the noise. He looked up and saw that it was Jiang Yuyue. He walked over with the same enthusiasm.

"Young Master He! What brings you here this time?"

Zhao Xingde was somewhat surprised to see Jiang Yuyue. He had thought that she would return to Jinling after delivering the medicinal herbs, but he did not expect her to stay here.
