But she was not in a hurry; she could always wait for an opportunity. When she got the chance, she would take all the good things from the house and not leave a single bit for those damn creatures.
Moreover, her little son was the family’s treasure, and she had to hold him tightly in her grasp.
Even if she had to leave this ho, she must take her son with her.
...
Speaking of the Old Patriarch, he had already arrived at An Jiuyue’s treehouse, with Daya, whom he picked up halfway.
An Jiuyue was busy under the tree with soone, and when he walked over, he saw An Jiuyue pause in her work and turn to look at him.
"Old Patriarch, why are you here?"
She thought it would be the family of her two sons who would co to find her, but she didn’t expect it to be the Old Patriarch.
However, she had already ordered the secret guards to inquire about that family’s situation. She knew from the secret guards about Daya’s mother being beaten by Daya’s father last night.
She was also fully aware of that woman cursing her two little children.
Originally, she had thought about waiting for them to co looking for trouble and then punishing them properly, but she truly hadn’t expected the Old Patriarch to co first.
"Greetings to Prince An Yang."
The Old Patriarch took a deep breath and was about to kneel before An Jiuyue.
An Jiuyue quickly stepped forward to support him, preventing him from kneeling. She was not one to be overly concerned with formalities, especially with the Old Patriarch being so advanced in age. Naturally, she wouldn’t let him bow to her.
"Patriarch, what are you doing? We’re not in the royal court; there’s no need for such formality. By the way, is there sothing you need to discuss with this ti?"
"This..."
The Old Patriarch hesitated for a mont, then turned his head to look at Daya, being held by his son.
"Eldest, take Daya over there to play for a bit."
"Okay, Dad."
The clan leader’s son imdiately carried Daya away.
"Jiuyue, did you already find out?"
After his son took the young girl away, the Old Patriarch finally looked at An Jiuyue and sighed softly.
Such obedient children, yet they have such unreliable parents. Being unreliable is one thing, but their mother is truly malicious!
"What is the Patriarch referring to?"
An Jiuyue naturally wouldn’t be the first to admit she knew everything. As long as others didn’t bring it up, she would pretend not to know anything.
"It’s about Yixing and Zhou’er. I only found out today that their parents have been living in An Clan Village for several years."
The patriarch spoke as he shook his head. If he had known that family was the parents of An Yixing’s two brothers, he would never have allowed them to settle in An Clan Village, as it only caused chaos.
Having not acknowledged the children back then, why co around now? The children are well taken care of with An Jiuyue—how wonderful is that?
He glanced sideways, noticing the two brothers holding little Qian Yinuo’s hands. The three children were quietly surrounding a man making a swing out of wood, and he truly couldn’t bear to disturb this lovely scene.
"Their family’s daughter-in-law just ca looking for . That shrew-like appearance was truly dreadful." He continued to shake his head.
An Jiuyue shook her head disapprovingly. She also heard the secret guards ntion that woman—soone indescribable. Basically, she just wanted money.
"What do they an? Do they want to take the children back?" she asked coldly.
