Due to a lot of delays during the trip to the Western Regions, Tang Ning and Li Tianlan's three-year agreement was postponed for half a year.
Later, when Xiaoru became pregnant, he stayed in Guizhou for another half a year, a full year longer than the agreed time. With that aunt's temperament, Tang Ning could imagine that after arriving in Chu, what awaited him would definitely not be calm.
It will be an unimaginable storm.
However, things must be faced sooner or later. No matter what, he can't delay this trip to Chu State any longer.
Xiaoyi has just become pregnant, and her due date is still more than half a year away. Half a year is enough for him to travel to Chu State.
Tang Ning did not plan to take Lao Zheng with her when she went out this time.
After all, every time he went out, Old Zheng was loyally guarding him and he spent very little time with his daughter. Only after Tangning had her daughter did she know what it was like to be a father. During this time, let him take good care of himself.
Please stay with your daughter.
Naturally, Tang Yaoyao couldn't take her with him. If one jealousy was upset, Tang Ning would have a headache. If two were upset at once, he couldn't imagine what that would be like.
Fortunately, she was busy with business at the Chamber of Commerce, so it was impossible to stay with him this time.
This time she went to Chu State not to fight, so she just took the two elders with her. She decided to leave as early as possible. Tangning spent a few days arranging things at home. During this period, she also received a reply from Mr. Xu, making arrangements.
After everything is done, prepare to leave in two days.
The day before leaving, Tang Ning was sitting in the pavilion blowing in the wind, wondering if there was anything he had missed. Xiao Xiao slowly walked over and stood behind Tang Ning. While holding his shoulders, he asked, "Brother, am I not?"
Can I go to Chu State with you?"
"Ah?" Tangning was a little surprised and asked, "Why are you going to Chu Country?"
Xiaoxiao lowered his head and said, "I miss Sister Lan..."
The last time they went to Chu State, they happened to meet Li Tianlan. Xiaoxiao had lived in the princess mansion for a long time, and he thought he had some feelings for her.
Moreover, he didn't know if it was Tang Ning's misunderstanding, but he always felt that Xiaoxiao was always depressed after returning to Guizhou, as if he had something on his mind.
Tang Ning initially thought that she was not used to the environment here, but after asking her several times, she just shook her head silently. Although Tang Ning didn't know the reason, she gradually discovered that she seemed to really dislike this place.
Naturally, Tang Ning would not refuse her request. However, before he could speak, the old beggar snorted and said, "Boss Tang, doesn't my dear disciple just want to go to the Chu Kingdom with you? You are hesitant and hesitant.
What's the matter? If you don't want to take her there, I can take her there myself..."
Tangning smiled and touched her little head and said, "Are you not used to living in Guizhou?"
Xiaoxiao nodded sheepishly.
Although Guizhou has been developing rapidly over the past year, for those who are used to living in the capital, it still feels like a remote place.
Tangning smiled and said, "Pack your things and we'll set off tomorrow."
"Brother is the best!"
Tang Ning only felt that the fragrance was spreading all over the shop, and she kissed her gently on the face, and then she happily ran back to pack her luggage.
Tangning touched her cheek helplessly, but noticed something strange in the atmosphere. When she turned to look at the old beggar, she found that he was looking at her with an evil look.
The old beggar looked at Tang Ning and said with stern eyes: "Boy Tang, it seems that I have to have a chat with you..."
Tangning asked casually, "What are you talking about?"
"Be more serious, I!" The old beggar looked at him seriously and said, "My precious disciple is already a big girl. Although you are his adopted brother, you must also know how to avoid suspicion. You must not kiss you if you are a man or a woman.
understand?"
If it weren't for Xiaoxiao, Tangning would have died in that alley in Lingzhou five years ago.
In this life, as long as she has a bowl of rice from him, Xiaoxiao will never be hungry. Although she is not her biological sister, Tangning regards her as closer than a family member. How can she allow this old guy to slander her?
If she hadn't been unable to defeat him, Tangning would have fallen out with him long ago.
Tangning frowned slightly and asked, "What have you been thinking about all day?"
The old beggar looked at him with squinted eyes and said, "What I am thinking about is not something..."
The old guy's words were a bit scolding, and Tangning was a little angry and said, "She is my sister first, and then your apprentice. You don't need to teach me some things."
The old beggar sat down opposite him and said, "I also want to go to Chu with you."
"Whatever."
The old beggar obviously had impure motives, but Tang Ning didn't care about it. If he didn't go, he wouldn't go. If he went, he could become a free thug, so why not?
What I didn't expect was that after a while, Lao Zheng also made the same request.
"You want to go to Chu Country too?" Tang Ning looked at him and asked in surprise: "You won't accompany my daughter?"
"I have been with her for more than half a year, and I have long been annoyed by her father." Lao Zheng said: "Idle time is idle. Last time I met a master in Chu State, and I didn't pay attention and suffered a small loss. This time I went to see what I could do.
I can’t get my place back…”
Tang Ning originally didn't plan to let Lao Zheng accompany him, but since he asked for it, Tang Ning didn't stop him. One more person would bring more strength. One more person, the aunt might leave some for him because of the large number of people.
Save face.
After leaving Guizhou this time, Tang Ning was most worried about Xiao Yi. How could she be as secure as others taking care of her herself?
It was late at night, and Tang Ning was still in the study, perfecting several food supplement recipes and even arranging her nursing care plan after giving birth.
Qing'er pushed the door in from the outside, quietly placed a late-night snack on the table in front of him, walked behind him, and skillfully helped him hold his shoulders.
Qing'er's cooking skills have obviously improved a lot these days. Tangning took a few sips of soup, gently held her hand, and asked her to sit on his lap.
"Aunt, uncle..."
A panicked and surprised voice came to her ears. The voice was also very familiar, but it did not come from Qing'er, whom Tang Ning was familiar with.
He lowered his head and looked at Xiu'er, who was leaning against his chest, and was stunned for a moment.
Xiu'er rested her head on his chest and hugged her tightly, tears flashing in her eyes, and she sobbed: "Uuuu..., uncle, have you finally remembered Xiu'er..."
"..."
The delicate body in her arms was trembling slightly. Tangning could feel the mood of the girl in her arms. She originally planned to push her hand away, but she slowly took it back.
He hugged the girl in his arms and saw her crying with joy in his arms. While hugging her tightly, he also sighed in his heart. There are more than one and two maids like Xiuer Qing'er who are so stubborn.
