Chapter 331 Are we going to be sold?
An Yonghou was also very happy when he saw An Qiao nodded, and he almost cried again, "Good girl, good An An."
An Qiao thought for a moment and said, "Dad, brother, if that's the case, let's go to Kyoto Prefecture tomorrow and change my household registration. That way I can legitimately be called Qi Ning'an..."
As soon as she said this, she felt as if she was forcing the emperor to abdicate. Maybe this person just wanted to recognize her. She herself had not received any training as a lady from a noble family, so she might not meet their requirements. She immediately added, "You can first announce to the public that I am an adopted daughter. This will be more convenient."
But who would have thought that as soon as she finished speaking, the expressions of the two people over there changed from excitement and satisfaction to confusion.
"This...this...why is this? Did we do something wrong? An An, you don't want to be recognized." Qi Ningliang was the first to lose his temper and hesitated to speak.
An Qiao waved her hands quickly, looking at the nervous expressions of the two people opposite her, "I'm just afraid that you will be unhappy. After all, I'm not a lady from a wealthy family. Many people know that I run a restaurant in Kyoto Prefecture... I said I would be recognized directly, because I'm afraid that my father and brother will suffer from gossip."
"Why do you care about these things? You are our family and have nothing to do with them. Not to mention that we have been looking for you for many years and finally found you. There is no reason for us not to recognize you. Besides, your restaurant is very good and we all like it. It's my fault, not yours, that you didn't grow up with us." An Yonghou was not a clay man. If his bottom line was touched, he would always argue with reason.
An Qiao nodded unconsciously and said, "Thank you, father and brother. I have one more thing to ask of you. Xia Yu...my original father. If possible, can you move his grave to Kyoto Prefecture and not let him stay there?"
"Of course you can. Since I found you, I have started to do this. I think it won't be long before we reach Kyoto Prefecture. You don't have to worry about it. You are a filial child. He must be very pleased to know this in his afterlife.
And your nominal brother, Anle. You don't need to worry about him anymore. If he bothers you again, just arrest him. If he dares to spread rumors in Kyoto Prefecture again, I will make him get out of Kyoto Prefecture.
Everything else in your restaurant is good, except for the lack of guards. I will send a group of secret guards to you from the Marquis' Mansion...
Also, if you don't want to live at home, then you can live here first. Your brother and I will see if there is a suitable mansion nearby. We can just buy a house near you. This way, we can see each other often and won't become strangers.
Moreover, since you are both our daughter, your brother was afraid that you would be unhappy, so he did not mention the matter of you moving back home. I was also afraid that you would feel uncomfortable, but living in two different houses, as you are an unmarried girl, is really not appropriate.
Then we might as well move here. We've lived there for so many years and we're tired of it.
And..."
An Yonghou's words reminded An Qiao of modern parents. Every time they went home for the New Year, they would hold her and talk non-stop, as if they had endless things to say.
Do you want to know how she is doing and how she has been doing this year? Do you want her to know that if she is tired, going home is also a warm harbor.
Home is always her retreat.
It seems that all parents in the world are the same, worrying that their children will fly too high and too far, forget to go home, forget to rest. They are also worried that their children can't fly, and no one will protect them if they get hurt.
An Qiao seemed to have not experienced this feeling for a long time. Before she traveled through time, her parents had passed away one after another.
I don’t feel anything on weekdays, but every time there is a festival, I will miss home and my parents especially.
After traveling through time, I lived alone again. Even though I met many interesting sisters in the palace, no one knew how long these people could live, and they would have no contact after leaving the palace.
At this time, An Yonghou kept talking to her, which gave her a simple sense of security.
Qi Ningliang was standing aside, listening carefully to what his father was saying at first. He very much agreed to change the yard and the house.
He has been thinking about this for many years. Ever since he was old enough to understand, he felt that his father would always be unhappy in that house and would miss him whenever he saw him.
Now, I might as well move to another house and keep this house as a memory.
Then, listening to his father's endless chatter, Qi Ningliang gradually felt sleepy. Why didn't he have so much to say to him in the comments? He was afraid that he wouldn't be able to say so much in the whole year.
Qi Ningliang: He really values girls over boys. He forgets about himself once he has a younger sister.
It was not until Qi Ningliang's stomach started to rumble and he sat there "gulping" like crazy that An Qiao realized that others had already started eating and the whole restaurant was filled with the aroma.
Only I, my father and brother haven’t eaten yet.
"Dad, brother, wait a minute, I'll go ask someone to serve the food." An Qiao smiled like a flower, she seemed like she hadn't been so relaxed for a long time.
As long as An Qiao thinks that she will have someone to back her up in the future, she feels as if she has the confidence to do many things.
Back in the kitchen, everyone was almost busy and ready to start eating. When they saw An Qiao come in, they were all stunned.
No one spoke, as if there was suddenly a sense of distance between them.
"My dear, the Marquis... is not... what do you want to eat? I'll make it right away." Lixia stuttered.
An Qiao...what is going on?
"Why are you suddenly so unfamiliar? You don't even recognize me anymore?"
Still no one answered, and they looked at each other in bewilderment. Qiufen finally said boldly, "Young lady, you will soon be the daughter of a marquis, and I'm afraid you won't care about the little things in this restaurant. Then... do we need to sell ourselves out again?"
Everyone was afraid of being sold out, but Anqiao was different. Around Anqiao, everyone was content, had food and drink, and was really happy during this year.
"What are you talking about? Where should I go if I don't open a restaurant?" An Qiao looked at everyone and suddenly laughed out loud. It turned out that they were planning to be sold. No wonder everyone had a bitter face.
"But you are already the daughter of the Marquis. Is the Marquis still willing to let you show up in public like this?" Qiufen asked in difficulty.
It's not like everyone hasn't seen dignitaries this year, and one can tell at a glance if the young ladies who come to dinner are from wealthy families.
Most of them came in sedan chairs, wearing bamboo hats. They would ask for a private room, and leave with their bamboo hats after eating. No one knew who came to eat from beginning to end.
Even Miss Li Qing, who has always been carefree, now almost always orders takeout and rarely comes to the store.
Their family is now keeping a close eye on her and wants her to get married.
