When Qin Ruo's uncles and his mother, Lady Qin, were called out, they were trembling with anxiety, quite worried.
Lady Qin whispered to Qin Ruo's second uncle, Qin Zhen: "I don't know who it is, but I'm a bit worried about Ruo."
Qin Zhen looked at Lady Qin and then off to the distant warm shed, "Sister, don't worry yet, we will find out soon. Don't be afraid, the person who just called for Ruo seemed to be friendly towards him."
Having thought about it, Lady Qin felt slightly relieved.
Everyone had waited for more than half an hour before Qin Ruo returned, accompanied by a young man and one of the royal official's trusted advisors.
The Qin family rarely had the opportunity to meet the noble official, who was the highest-ranking official in the area and had subordinates to conduct business on his behalf. He wouldn't normally come to the stone quarry. However, it didn't prevent Qin Zhen from recognizing the trusted advisor from the noble official's side.
