After being jilted, the entire neighboring village was filled with deep regret.

Chapter 218 Settling Ke Yunyun and her son

Ke Yunyun was at a loss. "Uncle, please stop talking about this. What should we do now? Young Master Zhu gave me money to leave with the child as soon as possible, so that his first wife wouldn't find out about us and harm us. Now you all have to leave alone. I really don't know where to go!"

Su Chunsen calmed down as quickly as possible. "Let's pack our bags first and sneak back to Dongmen Village."

Wan grabbed him, "No! To get back to Dongmen Village, we have to go through Moshi Town. It's such a tiny place that everyone knows if an oxcart passes through. If we go back, we definitely won't be able to hide it from those who are looking for trouble. It's not safe for Yunyun and her child to go back."

"What should we do then?" Su Chunsen frowned.

Su Chuan pondered for a moment and said, "Father and Mother, we can arrange it like this: hire a carriage from the prefectural city to come back to Dongmen Village with us. Once we arrive at Dongmen Village, let Ying'er carry the child and pretend to be my cousin and the child. Then, follow the carriage and leave Moshi Town to return to this courtyard."

I secretly sent my cousin and her child to Xiaotai's place. The Shen family has a boat that can take them to Dahe Town. My brother-in-law should be able to do it perfectly. Even if we don't go to Dahe Town, my cousin can stay with my cousin for a while. No one in Shenjia Village should recognize her.

"After settling my cousin and her child in, I'll go to the prefectural city and openly bring Ying'er and her child back. This was just a feint; even if they really wanted to investigate, they wouldn't be able to find out."

Su Chunsen's eyes lit up instantly. "Great! This is a good idea. Let's do it this way. Yunyun, you and Xiaoxi take the children back to the house to pack your luggage. Your aunt also goes back to prepare. Your cousin and I will go feed the horses. We'll set off before dawn tomorrow."

Ke Yunyun can only follow everyone's arrangements now.

In the bedroom, Xiao Xi said happily, "Miss, the young master is still sincere towards you. He is in dire straits himself, yet he still prepares so much money for you and is wholeheartedly trying to settle you down."

Ke Yunyun gave a bitter laugh. "He had no other choice. My Kangcheng has become his last hope. How could he not care? Xiaoxi, since the young master has returned my uncle's family to their original social status, how about I return yours to yours?"

Xiao Xi was so frightened that she immediately knelt down. "Miss, what did Xiao Xi do wrong? Xiao Xi will change, please don't abandon me."

Ke Yunyun felt sad and quickly helped her up. "Silly girl, it's not that you did anything wrong, it's just that I also want you to marry someone good."

Xiao Xi shook her head wildly, "What's so good about getting married? My mother was tormented by her family before she got married. She married a man who was beaten by my father every day. Whenever my father was unhappy, he would take it out on me. What's so good about that kind of life?"
The most peaceful days of my life were spent by the girl's side. I only had to take care of the girl and the young master, and I didn't have to worry about anything. I liked that kind of life.

Anyway, I don't want to get married, so what difference does it make to me whether I'm a slave or a free person?

Seeing that her mind was made up, Ke Yunyun could only let her have her way. She then picked up the money box and pondered, "In the past two years, we have been doing business with my cousin and have earned a little over ten thousand taels of silver. Young master didn't know, so he gave me another ten thousand taels. In addition, there are the silver we had saved before. It is enough for us to live comfortably for the rest of our lives."

"That's what I think too," Xiao Xi said, squinting her eyes happily.

They quickly packed and categorized the valuables, and then decorated the bedding and other items.

Wan and Su Chunsen were also discussing money in their room.

“We’ve saved up a few thousand taels of silver in the past two years. Now that we’ve been restored to our good status, we need to get A-Chuan and Ying’er’s marriage arranged as soon as possible so that our grandson’s identity can be officially recognized. We also need to buy some land in the village and build a house.”

Su Chunsen looked at her with amusement. "To tell you the truth, the courtyard that my second brother built before was ours. But at that time we were still working at the Bai family, so I dared not let the news out. Only my second brother, Xiaoyu, and I know about this. Let's go back to the village first and talk about it there."

The next day, the whole family got up early and set off before the neighbors opened their doors.

After a nerve-wracking journey, we finally arrived safely at Dongmen Village.

The Su Chunlin family was pleasantly surprised and taken aback by their arrival.

Sun Ying'er stayed close to Su Chuan with her child, never leaving his side. Su Chunsen was in high spirits over the happy occasion and couldn't wait to tell him about his reformation as soon as he entered the door.

After his initial excitement, Su Chunlin's expression immediately changed. "Military service! Big brother, doesn't that mean one of you and Achuan will have to serve in the military?"

Sun Ying'er's face turned pale instantly.

Su Chuan looked at her with a hint of guilt. "Ying'er, things in life are rarely perfect. If I restore your status, you and your child can also have a legitimate identity, but..."

Sun Ying'er lowered her head, not daring to let out a sound of crying.

Su Chunsen asked slowly, "Who from your family is going?"

Su Chunlin replied nonchalantly, "Damn it! Zhan's child is still young, and he has to support the family. He's young and strong, so he should stay home and take charge. Ming is only thirteen, still a child. I can't let him go to his death, so I have to go myself. Luckily, Xiao Tai is a filial child and arranged a set of armor for me. Let me tell you, that armor is amazing."

The more they talked, the more the topic veered off course.

Han couldn't help but push him.

Su Chunlin, however, was extremely thick-skinned and showed no sign of panic. "Anyway, that's the situation. My daughter and son-in-law are amazing. They've put on armor, brought self-defense weapons, and those life-saving medicines. I refuse to believe I can't come back alive!"

He clenched his fist fiercely.

"Great!" Su Chunsen shouted excitedly, "Second brother, have Xiaotai and her husband prepare a set for me just like yours. Money is no problem."

"Big brother!"

"Father!" Su Chuan suddenly stood up and said resolutely, "Father, I've decided to go to the battlefield. You just need to stay at home and enjoy your retirement!"

Mrs. Wan wept beside her; both her children were her flesh and blood, and she would be in pain if she had to give up either of them.

Sun Ying'er was also holding the child and kept crying, but she didn't say anything to stop them.

Su Chunsen shook his head. "Achuan, think about your wife, your child, and your mother. I'm so old, how much longer can I support this family? You're different; you're more useful if you stay!"

Su Chunlin sighed, "Xiaoyu's group ultimately selected Su Sheng for service. You should go and see him in a bit."

Upon hearing this, Su Chunsen's expression grew even more serious. "Achuan, did you hear that? Your brother-in-law is going to the battlefield. If you go too, what will happen to your mother, your sister, your wife, and your children?"

Su Chuan looked conflicted; he wanted to go, but couldn't bring himself to say anything irresponsible.

Su Chunsen immediately said decisively, "No need to discuss it anymore, it's decided then, I'll go! Second brother, let's go find Xiaotai later."

Su Chunlin nodded heavily.

That night, as darkness deepened, Su Chunsen and Su Chuan secretly drove the carriage to take Ke Yunyun and her son to Shenjiazhuang.
