Chapter 247: The Young Man Who Took the Wrong Path
The Feng Shui Master is staying in the village for a while?
Tong Sanlang’s eyelashes didn’t even twitch, he replied, “Yes. However, the village conditions are simple, I’m afraid it might inconvenience the Master.”
“No harm, I’m a Feng Shui expert after all, I’ve been everywhere, I can endure.” Yang Ye nonchalantly flicked his fan, his gaze switched back to Qiao Xiaomai, his phoenix eyes shining brightly, “Miss Qiao, His Highness looks forward to tomorrow-”
With his handsome face, a slightly cute tone, he looked like a noble and elegant cat.
“The commoner girl will do her best.” Qiao Xiaomai bowed her head in respect.
“Good, see you tomorrow.” Yang Ye waved his hand and stepped into the Ji Weiju.
Clad in a brocade robe, casually swinging a fan in his hand, his bearing was indescribably unrestrained.
Qiao Xiaomai watched him ascend the stairs, then looked at Tong Sanlang beside her.
That Feng Shui master would not only come to observe but also stay in the village, could the treasure underneath her home stay hidden?
Tong Sanlang’s expression remained calm, he walked a few steps to the bullock cart, “Let’s go, back to the village.”
He gestured for Qiao Xiaomai to climb onto the cart.
The cart was full of things, with just enough space for one person. After Qiao Xiaomai sat down, he led the ox towards the outskirts of town.
The two didn’t speak on the way, as they approached the village, Qiao Xiaomai finally couldn’t help but ask, “Aren’t you worried?”
“Unless he directly digs up the ground, he won’t find it.” Tong Sanlang’s voice was exceptionally steady.
Hearing this, Qiao Xiaomai, her gaze on his straight back, pursed her lips, “What if?”
“Are you worrying about me?” Tong Sanlang countered without answering.
Qiao Xiaomai blinked her peach blossom eyes, her gaze still on Tong Sanlang’s back, as if it was only natural, “You’ve helped me so many times, 1 naturally hope you’ll be alright.”
I hope you’ll be alright.
As the words resonated, the corner of Tong Sanlang’s mouth formed a small curve. So, Qiao Xiaomai doesn’t really dislike him?
Such a pleasant realization.
Suppressing the urge to turn back, maintaining his calm tone, he said, “Don’t worry.”
“Really, it’s fine?”
“It’s fine.”
Qiao Xiaomai fell silent.
Tong Sanlang was so decisive, and his martial arts skills were formidable. If he said it was fine, it must indeed be fine, right…?
Staring at Tong Sanlang’s back, she bit her lip.
The man before her eyes — he’s only seventeen…
At this splendid age, his martial arts were exceptional, and his actions dependable.
Although there were tons of things to do in the world, he chose to do those sneaky, unspeakable things.
A misguided youth indeed!
Thinking of their shared moments since she met Tong Sanlang, she couldn’t help but bite her lip harder.
What should she do?
She studied education in university, now she very much wanted to transform into a caring homeroom teacher and earnestly talk some sense into Tong Sanlang.
“Miss Qiao, shall we go straight to the new house?” Tong Sanlang suddenly spoke.
This comment pulled Qiao Xiaomai back from the sea of pity, she sighed quietly, “Okay.”
So, Tong Sanlang led the bullock cart towards the new house.
The “new house” Tong Sanlang referred to was the residence of Tong Dalang and Tong Erlang in the village. The Tong Family hadn’t split up, but since Tong Dalang and Tong Erlang had already reached adulthood, they each had their own houses in the village.
The Tong Family owned much land, Tong Tiehu, for the purpose of storing grain, had designated their houses to be in the same location, forming a large courtyard.
The venue for tomorrow’s birthday banquet would be in this courtyard.
In the courtyard, Jiang Zhuangzhuang’s father, Jiang Lao San, was slaughtering a pig, with about a dozen other people bustling about..
