On this day, Qin Lan took the child back to her parents' house. Before Qingyan and his wife could sit down, she threw the child to her mother and came to their side first.

After closing the door, Qin Lan checked to see if her mother was in the yard, then lowered his voice and said, "Yesterday, A Xiao's letter arrived."

Qingyan paused while pouring water for her and asked, "How is it over there? Has he arrived in Nanhui?"

Qin Lan nodded, "The letter was written in Nanhui. He met my father."

Qingyan noticed her title, looked at Qiu Henian, who had just gone to boil water and sat next to him, and said, "Are you sure that the magistrate of Nanhui County is your father?"

Qin Lan was a little excited and said: "Ah Xiao said that the magistrate was almost exactly the same as my father's portrait. Ah Xiao showed him the portraits of my mother and me. He was very excited when he saw my mother's portrait. I even called me by my nickname Lanzi."

Qingyan pushed the tea cup towards her and said, "It seems to be right."

Qin Lan's eyes were red, and he held the teacup in his hand, his fingertips trembling slightly, "I didn't expect that after so many years, he is still in this world, can't remember anything, and is still trying to find us."

Qiu Henian had been listening silently and said nothing. Until now, his pupils moved, he looked up at Qin Lan and said, "Did the letter say what happened that year?"

Qin Lan said "hmm", calmed down and said, "Axiao simply wrote in the letter that when my father was walking back after selling the leather, he must have encountered a robber and was robbed dozens of kilometers away from here. On the mountain, the robbers thought he had been beaten to death, took away the belongings and left. Unexpectedly, my father was still angry. He was rescued. The person who rescued him was a man named Nansheng who rushed to the area around Nanhui at that time. County officials serving locally."

"My father was unconscious at the time, and the official did not dare to release him to the county town at the foot of the mountain. He was worried that the bandits would find out and come back to kill him, and they could not delay their trip, so they took him all the way south, thinking that when my father woke up, After I raised him, I gave him the money to go back, but when he woke up, my father couldn't remember anything, and he was afraid that the bandits would cause trouble for him, so he followed the official to Nansheng and took up his post."

"My father helped the official there, and we had a close personal relationship with him. Later, the official was promoted, and he was transferred to Nanhui County to be the chief clerk. Two years ago, the official donated money and an official position for him, so he became the The magistrate of Nanhui County. During the time when he was the chief clerk, he began to remember a little bit of the past, but he didn't know exactly which county or village he came from, so he had to ask a caravan from the north to find my mother."

After listening to Qin Lan's words, Qiu Henian pondered for a while and said: "In other words, neither Uncle Qin nor the official could confirm that he was injured and lost his memory because he encountered a robber. Most of these were caused by the official. A guess based on the situation at the scene."

Qin Lan thought for a while and said, "That's what happened."

The room fell silent for a moment, Qiu Henian lowered his head slightly, frowned, not knowing what he was thinking.

Qingyan cleared her throat and asked, "Sister Lan, what are your and your brother-in-law's plans now?"

Qin Lan came here for this matter. She said: "I just want to discuss this matter with you. Ah Xiao said that the caravan will return in half a month. Including the time on the road, it will be home in more than a month. I Dad plans to come back with him, and Ah Xiao asked me to decide how to tell my mother about this."
