His Peasant Wife : Yao Ling

True enough, someone else was able to notice Yao Ling’s power from afar. Rong Jie had long gone, so it wasn’t him. It was the enemy. Aunt Yue’s power could only be felt by Rong Jie because of their bond, after all, she already had the skill to cover it up.

However, Yao Ling was a newbie and she didn’t learn how to cover it up from her grandmother. She was able to use the power was already good enough ah~!

Even Yao Ying could feel the fluctuation of Yao Ling’s power in the air, so any person with high martial art skills must have been able to feel it. They could easily differentiate it with qing gong because the power essence was quite different.

The man tried to find Yao Ling by following the trace that she had left behind. However, fortunately for the couple, when the man started to set out at a fast speed, Yao Ling already finished the enchantment. The trace started to weaken and finally, it was gone before the man could find the source. However, the man knew that it happened inside the Crescent Lake vicinity.

The man could angrily kick the nearest tree out of anger. He was almost there! He almost found the source of the power, but he failed! He figured that the source of power must be the missing Aunt Yue! He would never guess that Aunt Yue had already died and her power had been given to Yao Ling.

That was why it would be hard for him to find out about Yao Ling. At least, Yao Ling would be able to take a breather because of this reason. She could focus herself in handling her father’s matter.

Back to Uncle Qiu who started to remember everything...

He was finally able to remember Su Wan’s face. The soft and sweet girl who was just like a rose. However, her thorn always directed at those who tried to harm her family. She was a beauty --- although not the kind that was able to ruin a kingdom, she had her own charm. Rong Qiu was attracted to her righteous and stubborn personality which complimented his soft personality. He might be soft but he wasn’t a weak person by all means.

Rong Qiu felt the pain in his heart when he remembered how his mother erased his memories. He knew it was for the greater good but he still felt betrayed. He was able to think calmer now because he knew how much her mother had taken care of him these past few years and not only that, but his mother also didn’t live an easy life as a prisoner ah~!

If it was back then, he might throw a tantrum and even cut their mother-son relationship.

His bond and Su Wan started to feel stronger once again. He noticed that she was still alive, but where was she? He furrowed his eyebrows in confusion. Su Wan had given birth to their daughter... so she should be fine, right? Maybe Yao Ling would know something about it.

Rong Qiu opened at his eyes and watched Yao Ling carefully. He looked at her pale face and weak state, then asked worriedly, "Are you... okay?" He understood that she might use a lot of her power to help him remember everything.

Yao Ling felt happy when she saw the concern in his eyes. "I’m fine..." She answered weakly. However, Uncle Qiu could see her happy expression and he suddenly felt guilty --- for not knowing that she was actually his daughter before this.

How could he forget the nervousness that she felt when she was telling him about her just now? But instead, he yelled at her out of anger.

She was indeed a mixture between him, Su Wan, and her grandmother --- mostly her grandmother’s face which made her even more beautiful than Su Wan. He asked softly, "Yao Ling... are you really my daughter?"

Yao Ling nodded while she was fiddling with her fingers nervously. "Yes..." She still didn’t know how to call him. She felt safer when she was inside Yao Ying’s embrace. He gave her the assurance that he would always be there for her... no matter what the result was.

Would he accept her as his daughter? That was the thought that was fleeting inside her mind. She was yearning for his love, but she didn’t really have the confidence whether he would like her or not.

Uncle Qiu suddenly opened his arms widely and said, "Come... my daughter!" He slightly choked when saying the last part because of the tears that were threatening to fall from his eyes. He rarely cried but this was a special occasion. He found his long lost daughter ah~!

Yao Ling felt a push from her back, knowing that Yao Ying told her to go. Her hesitancy was gone, after all, she also yearned for her family --- her real parents. He jumped to Uncle Qiu’s embrace in a flash and called him softly, "Father..."

Yao Ying felt happy for her... At least, one of them was able to find out her real identity.

Yao Ling’s soft voice made Uncle Qiu’s body trembled... his heart softened. This was his daughter! Her lovely daughter! Even though his bond kept calling him to search for Su Wan, it didn’t lessen his will to hug and spend some times with his daughter. There was also a bond between a father and daughter... how could he ignore it?

He hugged her tighter and cried her name softly, "Yao Ling..."

They stayed that for a little while until Rong Qiu released her slowly. He asked, "How about your mother? Is she the one who gave you the lovely name?" He never thought the possibility of Yao Ling growing up under the care of another woman... He merely thought that Su Wan didn’t give her the Rong surname because she was afraid that people would connect Yao Ling’s identity with his and it would make Yao Ling in danger.

Yao Ling honestly answered her father, "I... I don’t know where Mother is."

Rong Qiu’s expression started to change into a serious one when he heard what Yao Ling said and Yao Ling could see that his expression was slightly darkened. "What do you mean?" He asked in a stern voice. He should have guessed... After all, Su Wan would be staying by his side when Yao Ling tried to erase the enchantment that his mother put on him.

Yao Ling quickly told him everything that happened from the beginning to end --- starting from Su Wan’s letter that they found, she even showed it to him and Rong Qiu confirmed to her that it was really Su Wan’s handwriting. Rong Qiu could feel from the bond that she was still alive, thus, he didn’t immediately go crazy...

He continued listening to Yao Ling’s childhood, until she got married to Yao Ying who had a memory loss, also how she had gotten the inheritance from her grandmother...

Rong Qiu was at a daze... after all, he just got his long-lost daughter back and she already got married?! He felt sad when he heard this, but oh well... it was better than he lost her for good.

When Rong Qiu heard the last part of Yao Ling’s story, he already knew that his mother had been gone --- dead, to be exact. It was the price that she had to pay for using up all of her powers. He felt his whole body had gone weak because of that, however, he didn’t say anything or show his grievance. He saw how his daughter hoped that her grandmother would be well. No news was good news to her, so how could he burst her bubble?

He didn’t have the heart to do that. Thus, he could only try to hold his grievance back and go along with Yao Ling’s assumption... He noticed that Yao Ying sighed in relief when he didn’t say anything about her grandmother passing away and he realized that he was indeed making the right choice.

Rong Qiu turned his gaze to Yao Ying, "So... you don’t remember your past, huh?"
