This was the first time someone had shown her kindness. Jiang Yue felt warm inside, but she shook her head.”No thank you. Your family isn’t rich and I wish not to be a burden to you.”

A burden?

Such a young child was already so sensible. Did she know that she was a burden?

Xue Yan slightly narrowed his eyes.

“What burden? It’s just another mouth to feed.” Xue Dafu said immediately.”If you don’t go back with me now, what good will come of it? My conscience won’t be at ease for the rest of my life. Let’s go, let’s go, let’s go back to my home.”

Xue Dafu was like a duck, bending over and pushing her back with his two big hands.

Jiang Yue was speechless.

“Xue Yan,” Xue Dafu shouted at Xue Yan as he continued to chase her, “Why are you still standing there? Come and take your sister back. You don’t need your firewood, just hold her hand. It’s not easy to walk around the fields when you have to carry your sister with the firewood on your back.”

He had a younger sister now?

Xue Yan was helpless, but he knew his father’s personality very well, so he didn’t put down the firewood. Instead, he carried the firewood over and didn’t rush to hold Jiang Yue’s hand. Instead, he asked calmly, “Father, whose family did she belong to?”

“She’s from a neighboring village. You’ve never seen her before, but your mother and I have seen her many times,” Xue Dafu answered without even thinking.

The little boy was stunned.

From what he knew… didn’t the little girl pass away from being sick?

Xue Yan couldn’t help but look at Jiang Yue with narrowed eyes.

Jiang Yue frowned. What’s wrong with that boy? Why does he seem like he was on to something?

As if he didn’t see her frowning, Xue Yan calmly looked away and said to his father, “Then her uncle must be Jiang. I heard that Jiang is not an easy person to get along with, and no one in that family is good. If you want to bring her home, it’s best to cut off all ties with her family first and get a contract. That way, it’ll be done once and for all.”

Jiang Yue fell into deep thought. Was he really a seven-year-old child? Some adults might not even be so thoughtful.

Was he a child prodigy?

Or … Was he like her? The soul inside was actually an adult? Right, didn’t this person suddenly stop studying in town… The possibility was very high…

Xue Yan knew that Jiang Yue was looking in her direction and that she felt that something was wrong with him, but she decided not to give in.

“A contract…” Xue Dafu was in a difficult position. “Of course, it’s good to have this, but why would Jiang be willing to disown Jiang Yue…”

“Here.” Jiang Yue suddenly took out a piece of paper and handed it to his father.

“What?”

“The contract,” Jiang Yue replied.

Xue Yan was stunned.

Immediately, he had a rough idea of what happened. This person might have been reborn. In short, she was definitely not the original Jiang Yue.

Xue Yan felt like they were on the same side, so he looked at Jiang Yue expectantly.

Jiang Yue let Xue Yan look at her.

She had no fear. She had thought it through. She couldn’t live in the mountains for the rest of her life, so she might as well take this opportunity to go home with a good man like Xue Dafu.

She would definitely repay Xue Dafu in the future.

“Break the contract? That’s great!” Xue Dafu snatched it over and couldn’t contain his joy. “That’s great! Jiang Yue, how did you get this thing?” His eyes still stared at the disownment contract, even though he could not read a word.

“I asked my uncle to give me this and he gave it to me,” Jiang Yue replied.
