"Miss Faang, take care!" Liu Wanzhou stood up and saw Dongfang Ning off with cupped fists.
"Fang …" Wei Lingyun also stood up and wanted to chase out.
"…"
"Wei Lingyun, you haven't told me why you're here. Where are you going? You and I need a drink anyway, right? "
Liu Wanzhou hastily interrupted him and even stopped him.
He really hated Wei Lingyun, right? However, he did not want Wei Lingyun to see the horse Fang Ning was riding. There were some things that he had to use.
"Why?"
"Nothing, I just want to reminisce with Brother Wei."
"Is that so? In such a remote town, I wonder why Brother Liu is here?"
"That's strange. This place is after all surnamed Liu. Brother Wei, why are you here?"
"Tell me first!"
"I only …"
The two young masters were usually at odds with each other, quarreling wherever they met. However, they rarely came to such a remote place. As for why they were here, they wanted to know from each other's expressions why they were here.
In an aristocratic family, the person with the least talent was naturally at the fox level. They could guess what the other party's goal was, but it was impossible for them to see through it with just their expressions.
Liu Wanzhou guessed that Dongfang Ning had left on her horse. "Alright, since I have matters to attend to at home today, I will not keep Brother Wei. Please leave ~"
Wei Lingyun looked at him suspiciously, "If I don't have something urgent, I really want to have a drink or two with you and then leave first." He still had a lot of things to take care of, and he had already thought of who did the big thing on Shan Yang Mountain. As the leader of the intelligence team, he came here for no reason, but why did Liu Wanzhou come?
"..."
There were only a few people who knew her, so she would go back by herself and call her aunt to fetch Tiger Boy. Since Tiger Boy was safe now, she decided to silently pass through the crowd to return to the inner courtyard, grab the Moon Garden from the back, and ride her black horse to leave.
Inside and outside the chaotic Liu Family courtyard, no one paid attention to her, only Huangfu Qi saw the dark horse. He recognized the horse, so he did not stop Dongfang Ning and knew who the person was.
Dongfang Ning's speed was very fast. Although Yan Old Prince's residence on the northern hill was hidden, to her, as long as she passed it once, there was nothing that she couldn't remember no matter how well hidden it was. She was in a hurry to call her aunty to fetch Huwa, so she only used half an hour to return to the northern hill.
"Ning'er, it's Ning'er …"
"Big sister, wuu …" "Grandpa, grandpa went …"
Halfway up the mountain, the Fang family's people were kneeling in front of a pile of new soil and crying loudly when they heard the hooves of the horses, seeing that their Ning'er had returned. Each of them ran to the side of the road in concern, not knowing what had happened at the foot of the mountain.
While they were shocked, they buried Elder Faanghan as soon as he was buried. In this era of constant war and chaos, lonely burial was everywhere, so their actions were not surprising.
"Little brother, don't cry. Where's Auntie? Hurry and call them over. She's going to pick up Tiger Boy first!"
"Ning'er, what's wrong with Tiger baby?" Everyone was shocked while Yang E cried out, "You damned bastard! You lost your son just to catch Ning'er!" She foolishly made a fool of herself as she fought and tore at Faang Tianzheng. The change of the day was too great and she couldn't accept it at all.
Not only could she not take it, none of the Fang family members were calm.
"Ning'er, you saw Tiger Boy? Isn't he in the academy? Isn't it, isn't it … "
Ignoring the fact that he was being beaten, scolded and pushed around, Faang Tianzheng's heart had already sunk to the bottom. He was afraid of hearing the bad news.
They were all thinking the same thing, thinking that something had happened to the baby tiger.
"Ning'er, you saw Tiger Boy? "Big brother and I will go get Tiger Boy. Where is he?" Fang Tianzhu was anxious as well.
"…"
"…"
"Stop!" There were only a few people in a single family, yet they were all in such a mess. They did not have the slightest bit of discipline! This was what Dongfang Ning was feeling at the moment, but this was what ordinary people were like …
"Can you listen to me first?" Dongfang Ning held her forehead as they asked her questions, yet they did not give her time to speak. How long would it take for her to explain everything?
"Ning'er, is this baby tiger …"
"..."
She was speechless. Everyone in the house was in a state of collapse and no one could hear what she said. It was one thing if they couldn't, but they still vied for answers one after another.
Taking a deep breath, she changed the way she spoke:
"What are you crying for!?" Brother Tiger Boy is fine, you guys go pick him up! "
As expected, everyone immediately shut their mouths. Okay, these two words were more useful than anything else.
"Mother, Mother, Third Uncle, Father …" "Wuu ~ ~ I thought all of you …" At that moment, a dark guard put the tiger cub in front of them.
"Wuu ~" The whole family held their head and cried, the sound of crying made the forest extremely desolate. Thinking back to yesterday, their grandpa who was fine and didn't have a neighbor who was usually good to them, how could this be a tragic word.
This was the first time Dongfang Ning had experienced such a thing and was able to remain calm before. Now that she saw everyone crying like this, she finally understood why those bereaved families cried so much under the circumstances of the big crime in her previous life. When she thought about the tragic sight she saw when she went up the mountain this morning, her heart softened as well … It turned out that human was an emotional animal, because tears also flowed from her eyes. The pain of Elder Faang's physical affection had been lingering around her, and at this moment, she finally experienced the sadness of losing her closest kin.
After a while, when the Fang family's people had calmed down, Qing Yun went up and told her that Mistress was going to return to the capital in the middle of the night and ask her to take care of everything before coming back with him. Because the journey was too long, Battle King was worried that her family would go to the capital alone and be safe with him.
"Now, everyone listen to me. We can't live in the village anymore, so let's move to the capital!"
"Ning'er, we don't know anything. How can we grow food in the mountains? How can we survive in the capital …"
It wasn't easy to do their mental work, and it wasn't easy for Dongfang Ning, because she didn't know what people needed. She only knew how to work, how to do things.
"Don't be afraid, I will find a job and provide for everyone. Besides, I have something to do in the capital, so I won't be without food or shelter."
"You guys should discuss this. We'll be leaving in a while." Her family members were all here, so she decided to travel together with them. Oh right, she needed a job. She needed to find a job in the capital, and she also needed to buy a house. All of this would cost money.
"Ning'er …" Today, Madam Wang had wanted to say something, but she hesitated. Ever since Dongfang Ning said she was going to the capital, she knew that the world was going to fall into chaos and that everything would be safe if she stayed in the mountains. Was that all she could change?
