Ling Yun took a carriage ride for a while and arrived at the westernmost edge of Annan Fucheng. He stood on the carriage and looked over. The place was full of short thatched houses, giving it a rural look.
After paying and getting out of the car, Ling Yun was a little hesitant about whether to go in or not. He always felt that this place didn't look like Annan Mansion because the houses in front of him were too dilapidated.
Comparing this place with Guangping Village, the latter is obviously much better than here. The thatched house in front of him is in sharp contrast with the mansion behind him.
There are large courtyards here and there, almost like a slum.
After hesitating for a while, Ling Yun walked in anyway. The path was relatively narrow and the carriage could not be entered, so he had to walk.
Passing one thatched house after another, Ling Yun couldn't help but poke his head around. The thatched house seemed a little deserted, with only a cold wooden bed and a rough bark-like dining table, but there were some
What's more, there isn't even a table to eat.
After walking in for three to five minutes, laughter and laughter began to appear, and a group of children gathered in a yard to play. Ling Yun breathed a sigh of relief. As he walked the previous section, he thought there was no one around.
Because he looked in through the broken window, the stove was covered with dust, and it seemed that there had been no heat for a long time, making it look unpopular. The autumn wind came and made him shiver.
Suddenly in the crowd, a child of seven or eight years old noticed Ling Yun.
The clothes on the child were worn out, and there were still many traces of mending.
The child who left the team trotted towards Ling Yun. Just when he was approaching Ling Yun, he suddenly stopped.
He raised his head cautiously, looked at Ling Yun and said, "Who are you? What are you doing here?"
Ling Yun was slightly stunned, as if he didn't expect that the child in front of him would take the initiative to ask him questions. He lowered his head and thought for a moment, then slowly said, "My...my name is Ling Yun, and I want to find Yang Ergou."
The child was stunned and said to himself, "Brother Ergou?"
He looked up at Ling Yun and asked loudly, "What are you doing with Brother Ergou?"
"Brother Ergou?"
Ling Yun whispered, since the kid in front of him knew Ergou, he must have gone to the right place.
So Lingyun explained to the child, "I am his friend, come here to find him, can you lead me to find him?"
"Well! No."
The child shook his head and then continued, "Brother Ergou just went out and won't come back until the afternoon."
Ling Yun said in surprise, "Oh! Out?"
"Yes."
"Is Yang Sanniu here?"
"Brother Sanniu is out too."
Ling Yun: "..."
"All right?"
If that's the case, does that mean he's leaving?
This one is not here, that one is not here...I wonder what happened today?
Is it because I didn’t check the date when I went out, I was chased in the bookstore, I was angry at the inn, and when I arrived at Nanyang Village, Yang Ergou was not there.
Ling Yun felt inexplicably depressed. Today was a really upsetting day.
Thinking like this, Ling Yun turned around and wanted to leave. The child behind him said, "Although they are not here, Brother Big Dog is here. Otherwise, I will take you to Brother Big Dog's house. What do you think?"
"Yang Dagou?"
Ling Yun thought silently in his mind, as if he had some impression, could this person be the person who sat next to Ergou yesterday?
When Yang Ergou was having dinner last night, he hurriedly introduced it to him, but he didn't have the heart to listen at that time, so he just glanced at him.
But since we know each other, that's okay. People are here anyway, so they have to come in and take a look, otherwise their work will be in vain.
With this thought, Ling Yun nodded and said, "Okay! You take me to find him."
The child suddenly turned around and shouted to the group of children, "Yang Er, go find Brother Big Dog quickly and tell him that someone is looking for him."
"okay!"
When the child named Yang Er heard this, he ran inside.
After seeing Yang Er leave, the child turned back to look at Ling Yun and said, "I have asked Yang Er to call someone. Let's go in from here."
"Um!"
Ling Yun smiled and nodded.
Following the children, they walked on the small road in Nanyang Village. Behind them were a group of little people, jumping up and down. They seemed to be very happy to see Ling Yun.
Walking on the road, a group of children were chattering and looking back and forth at Ling Yun.
Finally, a little girl couldn't help but stepped forward and asked, "Brother, what are you doing in our Nanyang Village?"
Hearing the little girl speak, everyone, including the child leading the way, looked at him expectantly, obviously wanting to know what he was doing here.
Ling Yun was stunned and said without thinking, "Brother?"
The child leading the way said, "Yes! Look, you are only a head taller than us. Shouldn't you be the elder brother?"
The other children nodded in agreement.
"Forehead!"
Ling Yun choked up, but if he looked carefully, he was really only one head taller than them.
Then he smiled and said thoughtfully, "Well, brother is here to play."
"ah?"
A group of children surrounded him and exclaimed in unison.
"What's wrong? Can't we come here to play?"
Seeing their reaction, Ling Yun's eyelids twitched and he felt a little nervous, wondering if he had said the wrong thing?
At this time, the boy who was leading the way explained, "I don't know since when, we in Nanyang Village have had very few strangers come here. People outside think we are poor here and don't want to come here."
Ling Yun showed surprise and nodded thoughtfully, thinking that was true. This place was indeed incompatible with Annan Mansion. When he first came in, he thought he had gone the wrong way.
The child leading the way continued, "Brother, when you came in, didn't you notice that the house in front of you was already dilapidated?"
"Um!"
The boy leading the way pointed at Annan Fucheng with hope in his eyes and said, "That's because the people who live at the intersection moved there when they had money."
"oh?"
It turned out to be like this. No wonder when he first came in, he passed by the house in front and always felt that it was neither popular nor inhabited, as if he had not lived there for many years. It turned out that the problem lay here.
"Big Dog Brother is here~"
The person who just went to call Yang Dagou came back, opened his mouth and shouted loudly.
"I heard that someone is looking for Ergou, who is it?"
Before seeing the person, he heard his voice first. Across the thatched house, Ling Yun heard a man's voice. This should be the Yang Dagou they called him!
Yang Dagou strode forward. When he looked up, he found that it was Ling Yun. He stood there dumbfounded.
After being stunned for a full minute, he closed his mouth and said incomparably, "Ling...Yun...Master Yun?"
Ling Yun nodded and said straight to the point, "Yes! I'm looking for Yang Ergou, is he at home?"
Yang Dagou blurted out, "Er Gou just went out for shopping. It will take a while before he comes back. Why don't Master Yun go sit down with Yang for a while..."
Hearing that Yang Ergou was not there, Ling Yun had no choice but to agree, "That's okay."
"Master Yun, this is..."
Yang Dagou was leading the way. Just as he was about to enter the small courtyard, Yang Dagou opened his throat and forgot to shout, "My dear, my dear, please hurry up and make a cup of tea..."
Hearing this, the woman in the small courtyard hurriedly stood up, turned sideways, lowered her head to salute Ling Yun, and turned around to enter the door.
Yang Dagou turned to look at Ling Yun. He was about to ask him to sit down, but saw him staring straight at his wife with a confused face.
I saw him breathing rapidly, opening his mouth slightly, and said in a choked and trembling voice, "Ah...ah sister~"
