Chapter 561 Family Reunion

It was not until the carriage drove into Yangzhou Prefecture City and arrived at the gate of the government office that Yang Qingxiao was truly relieved and let go of the moonbank in her hand. Yue'er, who was beside her, could no longer hold back. Before the car could stop completely, she lifted the curtain and jumped down. She and her brother separated for several months, and had experienced another twists and turns, and had long missed her.

At this time, Li Ling happened to walk out of the yamen. He saw Yue'er, who was still coming quickly despite being mixed with garlic. He was immediately happy, took two steps and shouted: "Yue'er!"

"Brother..." Yue'er saw the brother she had always missed came out, and she paused at first, then rushed up like a flying rush, and fell into the arms of Li Ling, who had already opened her arms, "Woooo, I've seen you. I was really afraid that I would never come back before, and I won't see my brother, Woooo..."

Finally seeing her brother again. With peace of mind and joy, Yue'er's grievance and fear broke out completely. She cried while talking vaguely. In a moment, her tears and snot wet the front of Li Ling's official uniform.

Li Ling couldn't push the little girl away at this time, so he could only hug her and pat her back with his hand to comfort her. He advised: "Yue'er doesn't cry, everything is over. It's my brother's fault. I shouldn't have entrusted you to others and let you suffer grievances. However, now there are so many people around you watching, and you keep crying, others will laugh at you. If they know that you are my sister, even my brother, the prefect, will be laughed at."

When Yue'er, who was immersed in her emotions, heard this, she suddenly shook her body, sniffed, and glanced at both sides a few more times. Only then did she realize that many people around were staring at her and her brother with strange eyes.

Whether it was the people who came to the yamen or some clerks at the yamen, their expressions were a little wrong at this time. They wanted to ask something, but they didn't dare. Especially when Yang Qingxiao also got out of the car, walked to Li Ling, looked at him and smiled at him, and felt deeply in love, everyone didn't know how to interrupt.

"I'll feel relieved when you're back."

"Li Lang, it's my uselessness. I was unable to protect Next Yue'er, which made her frightened and wronged..."

The two spoke almost at the same time, and then Yang Qingxiao's words were a little bit blaming but were quickly interrupted by Li Ling: "No, it's not your fault. Who would have thought that the Dajiang Gang would dare to attack you Cao Gang? Just come back. Let's not talk about these things for now. Let's go to the Houya and talk about it slowly."

As he said that, Li Ling did not take into account the gazes of the people around him, and hugged Yue'er, who was so embarrassed that he dared to poke his head out of his arms. He held Qingxiao in his heart with the sweetness in his heart with the other hand, and walked back and headed straight to the back yamen.

Although there are still many big and small things waiting for him as the prefect to deal with in the government office, today the two most important people for him come back and can only push all business matters first and then.

The house prepared for the two women had been cleaned up, and some of the slaves in the Houya retreated consciously, and there were only three of them left here. Li Ling smiled and said to Yue'er who was still hiding in his arms: "Okay, come out, there is no one else here. You rely on my arms like this, won't you hold it in your arms?"

"Hmph... it's all your fault, I don't remind me." Yue'er then stood up straight, her face turned red, and her head was covered with tears and snot. She looked really embarrassed.

"Haha, I want to remind you, but someone won't give me this opportunity at all." Li Ling said with a smile.

This naturally caused Yue'er to be coquettish and slapped her brother twice. Seeing that her sister was no different from the past, Li Ling felt relieved and smiled and said, "You are so ugly. Come and wipe your face quickly, otherwise you will blame me again if you see it."

"You...humph, Ignore you..." Yue'er's face turned red again, and she stomped her feet before she ran to her house. However, before entering the door, she looked back at her brother with some concern until she was sure that he would not disappear suddenly, and then she entered and closed the door.

"Do you want to wash and rest? After all, it's a long way." Li Ling asked Yang Qingxiao again with concern.

Yang Qingxiao shook her head gently: "No, it's just a little road, it's just a bus, so I'm not tired at all. And I've been resting before, just thinking it's space. By the way, isn't it said that the situation here in Yangzhou is complicated and the problem is troublesome. If you don't deal with all the tax matters, you won't be bad for taking care of us all the time?"

Seeing Qingxiao cares about her affairs so much, Li Ling felt warm and smiled and said, "You don't have to worry about this matter, everything has been solved. Now in Yangzhou, I have received support from many people. Not only are the people respecting me, but the wealthy families have also agreed to pay to help me through this level, so I am quite free now."

Yang Qingxiao was stunned: "Really?" She couldn't believe her ears anymore, and she was only separated from Li Ling for more than a month. He really settled everything in Yangzhou? Is this efficient operation too fast?

"Well, let's go into the house first, I'll tell you everything before." Li Ling said, took her hand and walked towards Yang Qingxiao's house.

After experiencing one storm after another, the two trust each other and snuggled each other. The relationship between them has become deeper and deeper. These intimate physical contact has long become natural. Even though they have not officially passed, Li Ling has long regarded her as his wife, and Yang Qingxiao has even regarded him as his husband.

The relationship between the two gradually became tacit understanding and familiarity between husband and wife, so when Li Ling pulled her down and asked her casually if she had been made difficult for her during this period, Yang Qingxiao just smiled: "No, they know my relationship with you, so they didn't dare to make things difficult for Yue'er and me. The food and use are the best. Apart from not being able to leave that yard, we are their guests. By the way, what are their ways?"

"It's from the Xie family, the Xie family of Changxing Hou, you have lived in Jiangnan for many years. You should know their name."

Yang Qingxiao indeed changed her face: "Xie family... can you even impress them?"

"It's not considered as a condemnation. They had scruples before, but now they have become partners." Li Ling did not hide anything, so he told the details about what happened after he arrived in Yangzhou. He heard Yang Qingxiao's eyes were full of dazzling colors. She was both surprised and proud of her husband's ability: "No wonder, they took the initiative to send us back to Yangzhou this time, and it turned out that it was because of this."

"Brother, then will they just let it go if they have to do something for a month?" But when they came in, Yue'er, who had been listening for more than half of her, asked unwillingly. Over the past month, she has been worried and afraid, and she has not felt guilty about herself. Now she has returned to her brother and is still thinking about taking revenge on those hateful guys.

"How come you girl have such an idea?" Li Ling rubbed her hair with a funny look, "Then the Xie family is not difficult for you. Moreover, compared to coming to Yangzhou to suffer before, it is better to stay there for food and drink, and you don't have to worry about anything."

"But... but I can't bear this tone..." Yue'er pouted.

"That's Changxing Marquis. His official position is much bigger than that of your brother. If I really dare to be enemies with them and take revenge on them, maybe I will suffer the loss." Li Ling reminded him again.

"Ah, is that true?" Yue'er then realized it and snorted, "Then, let's forget it. Let's take revenge again in the future. When my brother's official is older than them, let them know the reason why a gentleman is not too late for ten years to take revenge."

"Okay, that's all." Li Ling laughed again. Then he asked about the incident of Yang Qingxiao's Cao Gang: "By the way, I heard that you fell into the hands of the Dajiang Gang first and were robbed by the Xie family. Moreover, the Cao Gang suffered a lot this time. I have not even been able to contact more brothers from the Cao Gang until now. What's going on?"

Speaking of this, the smile on Yang Qingxiao's face finally disappeared, and a cold light flashed in her eyes: "The Dajiang Gang acted despicable and actually joined forces with the government. Only then did he kill one of us off guard, and many brothers died because of it..."

"Huh? How do you say this? Which government did they join forces with?" Li Ling's expression changed and he asked quickly. Not to mention that he knew very little about the matter in the world, even the Lu and Xie families only knew a vague concept, saying that the Dajiang Gang suddenly attacked the Cao Gang's headquarter in Yangzhou, and then took many important people. The Xie family also happened to have a spy here. They found that Li Ling's sister was in their hands, so they suddenly attacked and took away the two of them. However, the other Cao Gangs were still in the hands of the Dajiang Gang. No matter where they are now, they don't know whether they are alive or dead.

As for why the Cao Gang and Dajiang Gang turned against each other, the former was obviously stronger, but why they were defeated by the latter, Xie Wenruo could not find out why.

However, this time, the witness Yang Qingxiao came, and finally there was an answer. She gritted her teeth and said, "I don't know very well where the government they colluded with. I only know that just after the chaos in Yangzhou, a group of our brothers in Lianghuai were suddenly arrested by the government, saying that they had to smuggle goods and they would have to be severely punished, and they might even be unable to save their lives.

"When the news came, my brother was a little anxious. Our Cao Gang finally recovered his energy in recent years, and he also stabilized the situation in the gang. Naturally, he didn't want any brothers to get into trouble, so he personally took people to clear the relationship. As a result, the government did not take our Cao Gang seriously at all, and even asked for many benefits. At this time, the canal transport in Jiangnan had some trouble, and some ships were in the cargo to capsize, so my brother rushed back to deal with the matter, and at the same time left many capable people in the north."
