Chapter 384
Not long after, Ma Dongling's sentence came down...the death penalty was executed immediately.

At the same time, Yu Yiyue's case also came to fruition. Just as Mu Ye expected, due to the operation of Shen Yu's family, Yu Yiyue's sentence was reduced again and again.The final judgment was only two years and five months, plus a huge sum of compensation.

On the day of the verdict, Ning Qiu went there in disguise, and when the judge read out the final judgment, Yu Yiyue, like an angry lion, pointed at Shen Yishan in the auditorium and cursed.Calling him hypocritical, ruthless, saying that he was forced, is innocent.

Shen Yishan lowered his head and said nothing.

Ning Qiu looked at this scene indifferently, with anger burning under her cold eyes.

Although the Shen family is ruined and Yu Yiyue will face the prison and lose her freedom, this is not enough for Ning Qiu.

After leaving the court, Ning Qiu devoted herself to her work, and three months later, the food street was rebuilt.

And on this day, she got bad news from Mu Ye. Because of her good performance in prison, Yu Yiyue's sentence was commuted by two months.

"Then what's the situation with the Shen family?"

"Shen Yishan sold a shopping mall for compensation. You also know that the retail industry is in a downturn, so the price will not be very high. Yu Yiyue's incident has a great impact on Shen and Yu's family, and it can be said to make things worse."

Ning Qiu suddenly changed the subject, "Do you know what's in that box?"

Mu Ye understood what the box she was referring to, "It's very difficult. I asked Zheng Zizhuo to contact his eyeliner in Shen's house to find out, but there was no result. I'm afraid only Yu Yiyue knows the contents of that box. But ..."

Ning Qiu's eyes lit up, "What!?"

"The tree seems to have a special meaning. According to the eyeliner, Shen Yishan likes the tree very much, and will stay under it for a while. Even if the tree withers, he is not willing to cut it down."

Seeing Ning Qiu's frowning, Mu Ye patted her on the head.

"Actually, as long as you find an old man who works in Shen's house, you should be able to find clues."

Hearing what Mu Ye said, Ning Qiu recalled the days when he lived in Shen's house.In fact, adding up the two lifetimes, the time he lived in Shen's house was not long.Moreover, it is the stage of childhood, the time is too long, and the impression of many people or things is already very blurred.

Mu Ye seemed to be able to read her mind, "Leave the matter to Zheng Zizhuo, he is very good at this."

After half a month of preparation, the Food Street finally opened.

Ning Qiu did not attend the opening ceremony, and left everything in the hands of sister Meiying and Zhang Changwang who came to Haishi to take full responsibility. On the day of the opening, she had already boarded the plane to YL.

He looked down at the package in his hand, and then at Fang Chao who was sitting beside him.

The boy showed no expression, not knowing what he was thinking.

At this time, a big hand with well-defined bones was holding her, and Ning Qiu turned his head to meet Mu Ye's gentle eyes.

With a smile, Ning Qiu raised Mu Ye's hand.

"Why are you whiter than me!?"

Mu Ye thought that Ning Qiu was in a bad mood and wanted to comfort her, but now it seems that he was worrying too much.
"Will you go home?"

"Of course I want to go back."

"With Fang Chao?"

"Well, actually... I don't want him to go back to the orphanage."

"You want to adopt him?"

The boy's cold voice came, "Is it appropriate for you to say this behind my back?"

Now that Fang Chao heard it, Ning Qiu simply asked him. "Then let me ask you now, are you willing?"

Fang Chao frowned, "Why did you adopt me?"

"Because...Wen Xiaoyan went to save you regardless of the danger. She didn't want anything to happen to you. I just want to fulfill her wish and let you grow up safely."

Fang Chao muttered, but couldn't hear what he was saying.

Ning Qiu wanted to ask again, but Mu Ye stopped her.

"Give him some time."

The clouds in the sky are layered, and a few rays of sunlight are cast on the hillside through the thick clouds.

The temperature in mid-March is still very low, and the hoarfrost on the branches has not melted because of the few rays of sunshine.

Ning Qiu stood there wrapped in a padded jacket, watching several young peasants digging holes in the cold and hard soil with hoes in their hands.

The farmer is wearing unlined clothes but sweating profusely, in stark contrast to the three of them.

It didn't take much time for a hole half a meter deep to be dug out.One of the older men lit a string of firecrackers. This is the rule here, but firecrackers must be set off when someone is buried, regardless of age.

With the sound of firecrackers exploding in his ears, Ning Qiu opened the package in his arms and took out Wen Xiaoyan's urn from it.

There is a small photo on the box, which was taken when Wen Xiaoyan was in high school, with a bright smile on her immature face.

I walked to the edge of the pit with the urn in my arms, just about to put it in.

Fang Chao ran over, "Let me do it."

Ning Qiu glanced at him and handed over the urn.

Fang Chao took it solemnly, his eyes lingering on the small photo for a long time, and then he knelt by the side of the pit and slowly put the box into the bottom of the pit.

Watching a piece of soil slowly cover the box, the boy's expression finally loosened.

Big tears fell down and disappeared in the soil.

There are no tombstones, no decorations of any kind.Ning Qiu planted countless seeds around the raised soil bag, which were the seeds of the most common small wild chrysanthemum in Qin Province.It looks delicate, but it is the most tenacious flower.

"We'll come back next spring."

Fang Chao wiped away tears vigorously, looking at the raised mound on the hillside.

"Ok!"

The three went down the mountain, and Ning Qiu took them to Fuyuan County.

Mu Ye is very interested in this place, after all Ning Qiu has lived here since he was five years old.

And Fang Chao was even more curious, he wanted to know what the place where Wen Xiaoyan was born in was like.

Ning Qiu took them to the farmer's market, where both the uncle and brother were there.

Knowing that he was going to meet Ning Qiu's family caught Mu Ye by surprise, but he immediately realized what it meant.

Ning Cheng was startled when he saw Ning Qiu standing at the door, and rubbed his eyes, thinking he was wrong.

"Qiu!! When did you come back!? Why didn't you tell me in advance!"

"Uncle! I decided to come back temporarily, and I didn't have time to inform you."

Ning Cheng's gaze swiveled on Ning Qiu's face, sighing. "I haven't been home for several years! Sigh! You really are a big girl!"

"Uncle is still the same, nothing has changed."

"Hey, they're almost fifty." After getting excited, he noticed the two people beside Ning Qiu.

"These two are..."

Ning Qiu pulled Mu Ye, "This is my boyfriend, Mu Ye."

Mu Ye unconsciously put on a smile, and took the initiative to hold Ning Cheng's hand.

"Hello, uncle."

Ning Cheng was so surprised that he didn't know what to say. Although he was a native farmer, he had gained a lot of insight after years of experience.But he really didn't expect that the noble man in front of him who looked like a fairy in the painting turned out to be Qiu Yatou's boyfriend.

"Uh... well, well, hello."

Ning Qiu pulled Fang Chao again, "This is my younger brother, Fang Chao."

Fang Chao kept a straight face, "I'm not her brother, but her...friend."

Ning Cheng was a little confused, "Brother?"

"It's a long story. Uncle, let's talk about it when we get home. I miss my grandma!"

"That's right! After mother finds out, I don't know what will happen! Go, go! Go back now!"
