As Luo Xueyan was talking, she turned around and hugged Si Si: “Your pitiful daughter has not yet come out of the shadow of losing her parents, and now she has suffered such abuse. Do you know what kind of trauma this will cause to her heart? Wuuuuu… My pitiful Si Si… Wuuuuu…”
At this moment, Si Chaoqun blamed himself very much. He just wanted to make his only sister’s life better within his ability. He didn’t expect that her family would be so greedy that they would want to use such means to seize the property.
“Si Si, it’s Daddy’s fault. Dad shouldn’t have been soft-hearted at the beginning. I didn’t expect you to repay kindness with hatred and treat you, my precious daughter, like this.”
Luo Xuehua persisted: “Now you know you did something wrong? You shouldn’t have let the wolf into our house in the first place. The old man’s mountaintop villa was given to her, but in the end, it became a place to imprison your daughter. It’s a sin…”
Si Si had never seen such a scene before. Her father was a bit stubborn and always liked to stick to his own opinions. Every time her mother advised him to do something, they would argue.
However, the disputes that had occurred in the past were far less serious than today’s.
No wonder Si Chaojing’s family almost killed their daughter. This kind of thing is something that no one can tolerate. It was not surprising that Luo Xuehua could be so excited.
Moreover, this time, the dispute between the couple was completely due to Luo Xuehua’s unilateral suppression of Si Chaoqun. Si Chaoqun knew that he was in the wrong and could only keep admitting his mistakes.
If it were in the past, when Si Si saw her parents arguing over something, she would try to stop them immediately, but she did not do so today.
Her mom and dad have changed their appearance, and Si Si was a little too used to it for a while. However, when they were arguing, both their tone and actions were exactly the same as those of modern parents. Looking at Si Chaoqun and Luo Xuehua like this, Si Si had a kind and familiar feeling.
Qi Mohan, who was standing by, didn’t know what Si Si was thinking. Seeing that Si Si didn’t step forward to stop the two of them, he thought the little girl was frightened.
“Since you have already left your original world, there is no value in arguing about these things. Look at the present, how precious it is to reunite after death.”
Si Chaoqun thought Qi Mohan was begging for mercy on his behalf, so he grabbed Luo Xuehua’s hand that was still beating him and said, “Wife, stop beating. I haven’t had a full meal for several days, and I’m very exhausted. If you keep beating me, I might get internal injuries.”
It was an indisputable fact that the family of three had traveled to the Daqi Kingdom. Luo Xuehua had no intention to do anything to Si Chaoqun. She had just been too angry and could not control her emotions.
Now that Qi Mohan had already spoken out to dissuade her, if she continued to insist on giving in, it would seem like she was being too reasonable.
“Humph! Fortunately, Si Si came here. If she died because of the persecution of Si Chaojing’s family, I would regard you as an enemy for the rest of my life.”
Si Chaoqun kept saying, “Don’t worry, my dear. I won’t be soft-hearted to anyone again. As long as our family of three is safe and sound, I will be satisfied.”
Luo Xuehua glared at Si Chaoqun again: “Remember what you said today!”
“I’ll remember, I’ll remember…”
Si Si looked at everything in front of her, and an unprecedented sense of warmth and happiness rose in her heart. Could this be considered a blessing in disguise, a way for her to reunite with her parents in another way?
While Si Si was feeling extremely happy, she remembered what his father had just said.
She said she hadn’t had a full meal for several days. Could it be that the food she sent to Qiushui City was not enough for the people there?
With such doubts, she asked: “Qi Mohan, is the food that Qing’er and Mujin brought over gone?”
Qi Mohan knew why Si Si asked this, and answered honestly: “It should be fine to maintain it for another seven or eight days.”
Si Si turned to look at Si Chaoqun again: “Dad, Mom, didn’t you go to get the porridge?”
She had seen it in the video posted by Qi Mohan. The porridge they made was not as thin as what she saw on TV. On the contrary, it was very thick.
Moreover, Qi Mohan also told her that Qiushui City would provide porridge to the people twice a day, and there were also bowls for the elderly, which were equivalent to the size of modern small soup bowls. The capacity was originally small, so how could they not have a full meal for several days.
Being questioned by his daughter, Si Chaoqun felt a little embarrassed. He briefly introduced the situation of his body and explained to Si Si in detail how he and Luo Xuehua wanted to escape overnight but were caught by Qi Mohan.
Si Si and Qi Mohan felt a little amused and sad after listening to his story.
But this was not Si Chaoqun’s fault. The one to blame was the original owner of the body.
The common people naturally knew that he had changed his mind, and he was no longer the villain who only knew how to curry favor with Qiao Zhenwu all day long.
In Qi Mohan’s opinion, this matter was not difficult to resolve. Anyway, he had already made up his mind to let Si Si stay in Prince Rong Mansion temporarily. Since the two people in front of him were her parents, it would be fine for them to follow her.
This way, they won’t have to go out and live the kind of life where everyone yells at them.
Thinking of this, Qi Mohan said directly: “I already know your identities now. In the future, you will live in this mansion with Si Si. I believe that with me here, those people will not dare to hurt you again.”
Si Chaoqun and Luo Xueyan both knew that Qi Mohan did this for their good, but they would not agree to this.
“Thank you for your kindness, Your Highness. Although we are outsiders, we could live again because of this body. We have a courtyard to live in Qiushui City. We don’t want to trouble you so much.” Si Chaoqun refused decisively.
Their daughter was a pure and innocent girl, how can it be reasonable for her to live in someone else’s house?
What’s more, both he and Luo Xuehua were strong-willed people in their previous lives. They believed that even if they lived in the past, after the drought was over, they could completely create a paradise for their daughter with their business experience from their previous lives.
Qi Mohan never expected that he would be rejected so straightforwardly.
A sense of loss inexplicably arose in his heart, and then his eyes fell on Si Si, hoping that the latter could stand on his side and persuade her parents.
Unexpectedly, Si Si’s attitude was the same as that of Si Chaoqun and his wife. Although Qi Mohan saved her, this was not her home after all.
It would have been fine if she hadn’t met her parents. In this era, she had no relatives, and it was inconvenient for her to live outside alone, so she could only stay in Prince Rong’s Mansion temporarily.
Now that her parents were here, there was no reason for her to stay here and disturb others.
