276 He’s No Longer Here

Big Brother looked like he had a lot on his mind. It wasn’t as simple as being unhappy. It would be better to ask.

“You two have been mumbling over there for a long time, what are you talking about?”

Mo Ruyue’s voice suddenly came from behind. It didn’t scare the second and third brothers, but it gave Da Bao a shock.

He turned his head and looked over. There was still a trace of panic in his eyes that he couldn’t hide, which was immediately caught by Mo Ruyue.

She sighed in her heart. It seemed like she needed to have a good chat with Da Bao.

But before that, she had to deal with the other four babies first.

“Mother, this tiger skin is really beautiful. Are you really going to make those things for us? But I think if we sell them, we can at least earn a few hundred taels of silver!”

Er Bao was just thinking about warm and awe-inspiring gloves, warm waist, and knee pads, but now there was only the white silver in his eyes. Mo Ruyue could almost see a circle of silver dancing in his eyes.

Sure enough, he was someone who aspired to be the richest merchant in the future. Now, he had to first estimate the value of everything he saw. However, it was not to the point where his eyes would open at the sight of money. It all depended on what kind of path he would take.

“You’re helping Da Bao with the accounts now, don’t you have enough money at home? In the future, if we catch any more tigers, Mother will let you personally sell them. As for this time, it’s better to make them to keep out the cold first.”

Er Bao also nodded repeatedly after Mo Ruyue said this.

“Alright, Mother is very capable. Previously, I had fought a giant tiger alone. However, at that time, I sold it directly to Guanglai tower, so I earned a lot less.”

“Mother promised me that the next time there’s a tiger, let me try it out. I guarantee that it will sell for an extremely good price.”

Er Bao was easily dismissed.

Mo Ruyue looked at San Bao again. Before she could say anything, San Bao got up and ran out of the room. “Mother, Si Bao said that we have a patient in our house and he needs to nourish his body. He and Tang Tang are discussing what kind of medicinal cuisine should be made. I’ll go and take a look too, just in case he needs my help.”

As he said that, he had already run far away.

Mo Ruyue shook her head. She had heard what Third Brother had said just now. Even he could see that something was wrong with Da Bao. It seemed that Eldest Brother had been really shocked just now.

“Da Bao, come here. I need your help.”

Mo Ruyue beckoned to Da Bao. He must not want his emotions to affect his younger siblings, so he was here silently feeling sad. She would fulfill his wish and take him outside for questioning.

Da Bao walked over and silently followed behind Mo Ruyue. He knew what his mother wanted to ask him, but he didn’t know how to say it.

In fact, he didn’t even have the desire to speak.

He followed Mo Ruyue out of the courtyard before they stopped.

Mo Ruyue looked at Da Bao, who had his head lowered, and before he could speak, she reached out and gently rubbed his head.

“I’ve never seen your father before, so I don’t know what he looks like.” Mo Ruyue said.

“If I knew they looked so similar, I wouldn’t have let him into my house last night. Do you know why?”

She looked at the boy who had his head down the whole time. He was originally just listening to her silently, but when he heard this question, he didn’t raise his head and only shook it slightly.

“In your hearts, he’s no longer here. Perhaps you still have a glimmer of hope that he’ll return one day. It’s just that this person suddenly appeared and gave you a huge surprise, but when you realized that he wasn’t the person you missed so much, that kind of despair made you really believe that he really wouldn’t come back, right?”

Mo Ruyue knew that what she was saying was very cruel. It was equivalent to tearing open the scar that Da Bao clearly knew but was unwilling to admit.

However, she still had to say that the only good thing was that the other babies had not seen his appearance yet, so they would not be as shocked as Da Bao.

“Mother, I’m just… I…”

Da Bao raised his head, his eyes filled with pain and confusion.

When the bad news came, he did not believe it. Every day and every month, he hoped that his father would suddenly appear at the door of the house and stop his stepmother from abusing them.

However, after being disappointed again and again, he began to slowly accept the fact that his father was no longer around. He began to understand that he was the only one who his younger siblings could rely on in the future.

Later, his mother’s personality changed, and she gradually valued and doted on them. It also made him gradually bury those painful memories deeply, until today.

When he saw that familiar face again and was being stared at by that strange gaze, the last corner of his memory collapsed. This was the real reason why he couldn’t accept it.

Father, he would never look at him like that!

Mo Ruyue had been an orphan since she was young and had never experienced the love of her parents, so she could not fully understand Da Bao’s feelings at this time. However, she could feel the entanglement and pain in his heart at this time.

Although the five babies were not her biological children, they had been together for more than half a year and she gradually understood what it was like to be a mother.

She quietly pulled Da Bao into her arms, and for the first time, he let her hold him without resistance, appearing particularly obedient.

“Mother, don’t tell this matter to the younger siblings.”

Da Bao said hesitantly.

He had already suffered a great shock when he saw this scene. If his younger brothers and sisters saw it as well, how sad would they be?

“Don’t worry, that person will leave soon and won’t appear again.”

Mo Ruyue was even more determined to make the black-clothed man leave quickly.

In the past, it was because of his identity and background. Now, it was because of his appearance.

Out of the five babies, Tang Tang had probably never seen her biological father’s face before. Si Bao, on the other hand, was probably too young to have any impression of him.

The problem now was Er Bao and San Bao. They should still have some impression of Qin Ming. In addition, boys were born to worship their fathers, and Qin Ming had even died for the country after joining the army. In their hearts, he must be a great hero.

Since that was the case, they would not let the man in black mess up their thoughts.

Da Bao nodded silently. After being guided by Mo Ruyue to speak his mind and comforted, he quickly calmed down and returned to his usual state.

Mo Ruyue finally felt relieved. Da Bao was already a mature child, so she probably wouldn’t worry too much about him.

Next, she went to the Liu family’s house next door. She had asked Da Bao to bring Nie Yuansheng over to stay the night so rashly, so she had to go and thank them personally.

“Lady Qin, this isn’t a big deal, why did you come personally?”

Aunty Liu said with a smile, then pulled her hand and led her into the house.

“It was too late last night, and I didn’t have any spare rooms, so I had to trouble you two.”
