Chapter 685 - 688: Lost and Found
This was said to Pei Baoshan.
After all, they had lived in Beishi for quite some time and had some understanding of Beishi’s situation.
Although there are good people in this world, there are no pushovers.
Even if someone saved your life on the road, it’s impossible to just give away a house.
Not to mention, also giving away domestic help.
This matter seemed suspicious at every turn.
Just listening to it, one would feel like they’ve encountered a swindler.
Yet Xu Yufen believed it, and not only Xu Yufen, but Pei Baoshu and the others seemed to believe it too, leaving without a second thought.
Pei Baoshan stared at the door for a while before speaking.
"Why follow them? You’re all grown-ups, do you have decorations on your heads instead of brains?"
"If they think it’s true, then let them go."
"If you try to stop them, not only will they not appreciate it, they’ll think you’re holding them back from a good life."
"Let them go."
Pei Baoshan had another aspect to consider.
Pei Baoshu and the others were not exactly destitute, but close enough.
Even if that person is tricking them, what could they possibly trick them out of?
With this thought, Pei Baoshan wasn’t as worried.
Everyone has a brain; you have to think things through when something happens.
If they don’t think for themselves and really get tricked, it’s their own doing.
Some people need to experience the harsh blows of society to understand their own worth and what kind of life they should lead and what kind of things they should do.
Wang Cuilan listened to Pei Baoshan’s words, pondered for a while, and finally nodded.
If that’s the case, then let them go.
Didn’t Xu Yufen say she’d be back tomorrow?
Whether they were deceived or not, we’ll find out tomorrow.
With Pei Baoshu’s family leaving, it was just their family left for dinner.
As their family sat down to eat in the dining room again, it felt surprisingly subtle.
Previously, when the family sat here to eat, it seemed like nothing special.
At that time, it just felt like an ordinary thing.
But now, this regained peace made them realize its true value.
The family just focused on enjoying this moment of tranquility, not thinking much about anything else.
The night passed without words, and soon it was the next day.
It was the third day of the month, and Pei Shanshan had to go to the Qin Family.
Of course, she couldn’t go alone; she needed a female elder to accompany her.
But apart from Pei Shanshan, there were only two females in the family.
Wang Cuilan wasn’t suitable to go with her, so Jiang Ran went instead.
In both this life and the past, this was Jiang Ran’s first time doing something like this.
She wasn’t nervous, but she did feel a bit intrigued.
The gift to bring was prepared beforehand.
Checking the time, feeling it was about right, she got in the car and headed to the Qin Family.
The driver was none other than Jiang Ran.
Jiang Ran could drive, and it was easy to get a driver’s license at this time.
She already had a driver’s license, so she could naturally drive on the road, taking Pei Shanshan to the Qin Family.
On the way, Jiang Ran said to Pei Shanshan, "After the New Year, take some time to get your driver’s license, too."
It’s always good to have a driver’s license, just in case.
It’s much better to have it than not.
You never know when you might need it.
Initially, Pei Shanshan was a bit nervous.
But after hearing Jiang Ran talk about this, her tension slowly dissipated.
