Chapter 275 Kneeling at the Grave
After Hang Shuheng left the study, Chu Fang realized belatedly, "Cousin, why did he agree so readily?"
Xiao Yun was silent for a long time, then suddenly laughed. He was careless. It turned out that the man had already planned this.
But he brought it up first, which seemed a bit impatient.
He sighed silently. Whatever. They didn't have much time to stay. It wouldn't be a bad thing to reach an agreement sooner. He proposed the cooperation not just for the sake of interests. Only when the interests were tied together would he have more legitimate reasons to keep in touch with them from time to time. It wouldn't be abrupt to send them gifts during festivals in the future.
Hang Shuheng came out of the study and went straight back to the east room. As soon as he entered the room, he saw Song Ning had finished bathing and was lying on the kang, staring at Yangyang's sleeping face.
Seeing him come in, she quickly made a gesture to him to keep quiet. Hang Shuheng immediately slowed down his steps and walked quietly to the kang. Together with her, they looked at the little guy sleeping soundly with curiosity.
Seeing the little guy kicking the quilt dishonestly, they both couldn't help but smile at each other.
That night, Song Ning slept very soundly and slept until dawn. After waking up, she still felt a little unreal, so she quickly turned over and touched the quilt on one side. The warm touch of the child's body made her feel unreal for a moment and she smiled with satisfaction.
At this time, Xiao Yun and others had already gone up to the back mountain early. Once they were on the mountain, Chu Er and Chu Shisan had already gone into the mountain to hunt.
Xiao Yun and Chu Fang walked to two tombs placed side by side, which were the tombs of Mr. Song and his wife.
"Cousin..." When Chu Fang saw the name carved on one of the tombstones, his pupils shrank slightly and he subconsciously turned his head to look at Xiao Yun.
Xiao Yun did not say anything, but just stared at the tombstone with dark eyes.
The once dignified daughter of the Duke of Zhenguo and the most noble woman in Dongli Kingdom, now lies in such a desolate mountain. No one knows her former glory, and no one knows whether she feels wronged?
After a long time, Xiao Yun lifted up his skirt, knelt down in front of the grave, bowed three times, and kowtowed three times. Chu Fang followed suit and knelt down and kowtowed with him.
Afterwards, the two of them stood up and left. After walking for a long distance, no one spoke for a while. Finally, Chu Fang couldn't hold it in any longer and asked, "Cousin, is my aunt going to rest here forever? What do you think?"
Xiao Yun stood with his hands behind his back, looking at the winding mountain path, and said quietly: "Let's discuss it later. Even if we have any ideas now, we don't have the position to do anything. At the very least, we have to wait until they recognize the mother and son before making any plans."
After saying that, he turned around and looked towards the foot of the mountain, in the direction of the Hang family.
Chu Fang heard this and nodded in agreement. They really had no right to do anything at the moment, but he believed that his aunt would not rest here forever. Since she did not like the royal family, it would be fine if she was buried in the Chu family's ancestral tomb.
Recently, there have always been horse-drawn carriages coming in and out of Shangtang Village, almost all of which are from the Chonghang family. The villagers are no longer surprised to see horse-drawn carriages, but it is rare to see four horses tied outside at the same time.
Early in the morning, many villagers gathered outside the Hang family's yard, surrounding the four horses to watch the novelty.
"Oh my! This is the first time I've seen so many horses!"
"This Marco is so handsome!"
"This Shuheng is really promising. He always makes friends with some noble people."
To ordinary people, horses are an extremely precious species, and they only dare to watch and comment on the four horses.
Of course they dare not touch it. If something bad happens, they can't afford to pay for it even if it means losing their lives and property!
When Xiao Yun and the others came down the mountain and returned to the Hang family, they saw this scene. Chu Er stuffed the pheasant in his hand into Chu Shisan's hand, stepped forward with a serious face and shouted, "What are you doing here?"
Everyone who was watching the horses was startled by the sudden shout. They turned around to look at the source of the voice and saw several unfamiliar faces.
The man in the front was holding a sword and had a cold face. He looked like someone who was not someone to be trifled with. However, the three men behind him did not look as ferocious as the man in front.
These people were all good-looking, and the two at the back with similar eyebrows and eyes were the best looking. They were the best looking people they had ever seen except for Hang Shuheng.
If Zhou Ting knew that the villagers of Shangtang Village had such psychological activities, he would have to feel a little unfair for himself. He has been to Shangtang Village several times. Is it possible that no one has noticed that he is not bad looking?
After being scolded by Chu Er, everyone hurriedly explained, "Sorry, gentlemen, we have never seen so many horses, so we just want to see them..."
Before he finished speaking, the two good-looking men behind him came forward, and one of them said gently, "It's nothing, but our horses are very aggressive, so you should stay away and don't get close, otherwise you might get hurt."
"Yes, yes, that's the truth."
As they talked, everyone retreated back, further away from the horses.
Xiao Yun and others nodded to the villagers, turned around and entered the gate of the Hang family.
Hang Shuheng got up early and went to Shuisheng's place. When he came back, he realized that it was so lively right in front of his house.
The villagers didn't dare to ask Xiao Yun and others, but now that they had caught Hang Shuheng, they would naturally not let him go.
"Shuheng, what distinguished guests have come to this house?" Even if they were all ordinary people, they could tell that those people must be very noble, and their temperament could not be concealed.
Hang Shuheng just said a few perfunctorily and entered the yard. Before entering, he also reminded everyone not to get too close to the horses to avoid being accidentally injured.
After entering the door, I saw a few pheasants with their legs and wings tied up casually thrown at the foot of the wall, and the corners of my mouth couldn't help but twitch.
Song Ning was preparing breakfast in the kitchen. When she heard the noise in the yard, she came out and said, "You guys are back. Take a break first. We'll be able to have breakfast soon."
Chu Fang washed his hands and walked towards the kitchen, "Mrs. Hang, let me help you!" It was already late when he arrived here yesterday, and he had not yet had a serious word with this girl.
"I'll come and help too." Chu Shisan also ran over actively.
"No, you guys take a rest. I'm doing a simple job today, not much work."
Song Ning planned to make noodles with soybean paste. The noodles had already been kneaded and stretched into strips, and she just needed to wait for the water in the pot to boil before putting them in. As for the soybean paste, she could stir-fry it quickly. The minced meat had already been chopped and set aside, and all the other ingredients were also ready, so she could just put them in the pot and stir-fry them.
