After Transmigration, Her Whole Family Are Villains

Chapter 65

Last night.

The moon was bright and the stars were few.

Jiang Feng had not slept well either.

He looked out the small window in the room.

He could see the distant stars, high and far away.

He could see the crescent moon, curved and bright.

The other day Little Jiang Yu had said she wanted to betroth him to two young masters from the Capital City, but those two young masters had not taken the bait.

They did not directly refuse, but they were very polite.

Later when he thought about it, it was actually a refusal.

In his heart, there was a sense of loss, but this kind of loss was inexpressible.

It should have been like this.

For people like them, how could he, a wayward son, aim so high.

He had not expected that one day, Meng Brother and He Elder Brother would simultaneously invite him.

Jiang Feng was surprised and at the same time felt a sense of pride and honor.

A kind of pride in being recognized.

He even had fanciful thoughts.

Imagining himself going to the Meng Family in the Capital City, showing off his skills, riding fine horses with the guards, donning impressive armor, striding boldly, and being praised as a young master.

Imagining himself going to the He Family in Qingzhou, wearing elegant robes, greeting the scholars with a bow, drinking wine and chanting poems, composing a fine poem that would be sung by the maidens, praised by all for his literary talent.

Thinking and thinking, he smiled.

Smiling and smiling, he woke up.

If he had not had that near-death experience that day, he might have eagerly accepted.

To follow them, to see the world, to travel the vast landscapes, where could a young man not go, everywhere there was a path.

But he dared not go.

He was afraid that Little Jiang Yu would lose him again.

He was afraid that his sister and mother would lie on the muddy ground again, he was afraid his father would cry alone.

He could not leave.

He had to stay.

He wanted to stay, to stay, he had grown up, his shoulders were strong, he could bear many things, he could also bear the responsibility for this family.

Thinking this way, his heart settled down.

He finally fell asleep.

At peace, without dreams.

...

Early in the morning, Jiang Mianmian was already clamoring for her brother to carry her.

Her arms stretched high, reaching towards her brother.

She had not slept well last night either, waking up twice to drink milk, urinating twice, and having a bowel movement once in between.

She was still thinking about her brother leaving.

But she could not express it.

She was very worried that when she woke up, her brother would be gone.

Like a little bear cub running away from home, bravely venturing into the world.

So early in the morning when she saw her brother, she excitedly rushed over to be held.

Her life was still very short, only about two months, but her brother, mother, father, and sister had accompanied her for her entire life.

To be separated from any of them, she would be very sad.

Early in the morning when her brother patted her head, she obediently did not resist.

But until their father went to work, her brother did not mention leaving.

So her brother was not leaving?

Jiang Mianmian was very happy.

Of course, she hoped the family would stay together.

The world was dangerous, and her ability was limited, if her brother went far away, and something happened, she would not be able to handle it.

She clung to her brother all morning, not getting down.

After eating last night's leftovers, a thick hot pot broth, their mother went to dig up wild vegetables.

Her brother carried her, her sister led the white horse, and together they went to the roadside to wait for people.

They also saw a rainbow, very beautiful.

When the rainbow dispersed, Young Master He's entourage appeared.

Jiang Mianmian lay in her brother's embrace, curiously watching the entourage.

Last time she was rescued, she had seen it once, but she hadn't had a chance to look at it then.

It could be described as an impressive procession.

Many horses.

Many belongings as well.

In ancient times without traffic lights, it was unknown how they would pass when encountering several groups at an intersection.

Jiang Mianmian thought about it, and she couldn't help but drool.

Young Master He dismounted and saw Jiang Feng's sister drooling in his arms, triggering his obsessive-compulsive tendencies.

"That Jiang Brother!" he pointed at the baby in his arms, then at her mouth.

Jiang Feng thought he still wanted to hold his sister, after all his sister was too adorable, loved by all who saw her.

Moreover, they were about to leave.

Carriage travel was slow, the Capital City was far, Qingzhou even farther, perhaps this would be their final farewell, maybe forever.

Jiang Feng readily handed his sister to him: "Here, hold her again."

He Chen hurriedly took the baby, pulled out a handkerchief, and helped wipe her drool, only relaxing after it was cleaned up.

Meng Shaoxia looked at the round-faced little girl chewing on grass and suddenly asked, "Little Yu, did you sleep well last night?"

Jiang Yu was a bit stunned, she was Jiang Yu, not Little Fish, only her brother called her Little Jiang Yu, not Little Yu.

But seeing this square-faced brother was speaking to her, she nodded: "Slept very well, ate well, so slept very well."

Meng Shaoxia smiled.

He reached out his hand, and just as he was about to touch Jiang Yu's head, he suddenly pulled it back.

Jiang Yu looked up curiously.

She thought he wanted to touch her headpiece.

She smiled: "Is the flower on my head pretty? My brother gave me this red cord."

Meng Shaoxia nodded: "Very pretty, extremely nice."

Meng Shaoxia turned to Jiang Feng and said seriously: "Jiang Brother, come to the Capital City with me. Your family can travel with us, it's not very peaceful lately, with war and chaos."

He Chen looked at Meng Brother, feeling that Meng Brother was indeed more decisive than himself at crucial moments.

He had actually invited Jiang Brother's entire family to leave.

Jiang Yu was astonished, this square-faced brother wanted their whole family to follow him? Repaying a life debt by taking the whole family?

Jiang Feng was also stunned for a moment.

He had already decided not to leave, but Meng Brother's proposal made his heart waver for an instant.

But for his family to depend entirely on Meng Brother when they were neither relatives nor friends, unless they became servants.

He shook his head and declined.

"Thank you for the kind invitation, Meng Brother and He Brother. Feng was moved, tossing and turning unable to sleep last night, excited by the prospect. I have grown up without ever leaving home, my experience is shallow, and I have longed for the Capital City and Qingzhou endlessly."

The youth paused, then continued:

"I have never seen the prosperity of the Capital City, nor experienced the scholarly atmosphere of Qingzhou, my heart yearns for it. But at home, my sister is young, my mother is introverted, my father is frail, and I am the only one in my prime. I long for the prosperity of distant lands, but I cherish the peace at home even more. So Feng, with gratitude to you two brothers, Feng will remain at home."

Jiang Feng bowed in thanks.

His eyes reddened, but his face wore a relaxed smile, relieved by his choice.

The youth dared not seek grand ambitions, for he had to take care of his family.

The youth had no regrets.

He would remain at home.
