A car accident, our family of three crossed

"Oh, where did the two sisters go to have some free time?" Zhou Ru complained as soon as she saw them, "They didn't even take me with them."

Song Ning and Mei smiled at each other. The reason they didn't bring her with them was to avoid her. If they had brought her with them, how could they have a good conversation?

Zhou Ru's complaints were just lip service. She was not really unhappy about being left behind. On the contrary, she was having a great time at the villa.

Compared to the last time when the villa was just built, it was still a little barren. After a period of time, the fruit trees, flowers and plants planted on the villa grew better, and the scenery was naturally much better than at the beginning.

Another reason is that most of the rabbits originally raised in the Hang family’s backyard were moved to the back mountain of the villa.

A new breeding ground was built there, where the rabbits have a larger area to move around and their cages are more spacious, giving them much more freedom than in the cages in the backyard.

In addition to rabbits, there are also a lot of chickens and ducks, as well as many quails caught by setting traps on wooden blocks.

Zhou Ru went there with a few children and picked up a lot of chicken and duck eggs, as well as thumb-sized quail eggs.

The unprecedented experience made her, a young lady from a wealthy family, enjoy herself to the fullest. She picked up almost all the eggs laid by the chickens, ducks and quails that day.

In the end, Mudun couldn't bear it anymore, so he took some eggs out of her egg basket and put them back into the nest. He explained to her that only when there are eggs in the nest will the chickens and ducks lay eggs every day until all the eggs are laid.

At this moment, Zhou Ru placed two baskets of spoils on the table, enthusiastically showing off his heroic deeds in the back mountain.

When Song Ning heard that this tiger girl actually drove the hen that was laying eggs out of the nest in order to pick up an egg, he was a little amused and helpless.

She is really brave! She is not afraid of being pecked by the hen.

There were two baskets, containing chicken and duck eggs, and quail eggs respectively. Song Ning only kept a few eggs and divided the rest into two portions for Mei and Zhou Ru to take back and eat.

When leaving, Zhou Ru got on the carriage holding a basket, as happy as a child. After all, this was the result of her own labor, and it must taste better than what she bought with money.

Song Ning personally escorted them to the carriage. When Mei was about to get on the carriage, she held her hand and whispered, "Think carefully and follow your heart."

Zhou Ru got on the carriage and opened the curtain. She saw two people whispering to each other beside the carriage. She said sarcastically: "Hey! What are you whispering about behind people's backs?"

Song Ning and Mei smiled knowingly. Only they understood what it meant, but it was not convenient for Zhou Ru to know it for the time being.

After seeing off her two good sisters, Song Ning returned to the yard, only to find out that Hang Shuheng had drunk a little too much today and was resting in the study!

She went into the study and took a look, and saw that he was indeed lying on the kang. She walked over and smoothed the corner of his quilt. When she was about to leave, she was grabbed by a big hand.

"Huh? You're not asleep?"

"Yeah! I can't sleep." Hang Shuheng moved inward and patted the seat beside him, "Come up and lie down for a while!"

Song Ning did not refuse. She took off her shoes, got on the kang, and lay down beside him in her clothes.

The couple talked for a while, and it turned out that Hang Shuheng didn't fall asleep, but Song Ning gradually fell asleep while talking.

When Hang Shuheng spoke but no one responded, he turned his head and looked helpless. After smiling, he hugged his wife and closed his eyes to take a nap. Listening to her even breathing, he soon fell asleep too.

On the other side, on the way back to the county town, Zhou Ru was talking to Mei in the carriage. Most of the time, Mei was listening quietly, responding from time to time.

Mei was not annoyed. Ever since Zhou Huan made his feelings clear to her, whenever she saw Zhou Ru, she inexplicably felt like an elder looking at a younger person.

Thinking of this, she couldn't help but spit on herself in her heart. Was she crazy? What was she thinking about? She was just thinking about nonsense.

Fortunately, Zhou Ru was carefree and didn't notice anything strange about Mei at all. She continued to chatter all the way.

When Song Ning woke up, it was already evening and dinner was ready. She came out of the house and washed her hands just in time to eat.

Xu just stewed a light soup, fried two vegetables, and paired them with some untouched leftovers from lunch today. She heated them up in the wok and served it all.

After the family had a simple dinner, Hang Shuheng and his wife took the children out for a walk to help digest the food.

On the way, Hang Shuheng went to see Master Liu to discuss the matters of going to Beijing for the imperial examination, and several children followed him.

They were originally going out together, but in the end, Song Ning lagged far behind them, simply because every time she passed a house, she had to stop and say a few words before leaving. By the time she arrived at Master Liu's house, they had already finished their discussion.

The capital city is not like the provincial capital. The journey is long and the return date is uncertain for this trip. Therefore, Song Ning and her son must go together.

As for Master Liu, he had originally planned to leave at a later date. He had just returned from the provincial capital for a few days and had not spent much time with his wife and children. Now he had to go on a long journey again, and he felt guilty.

After this departure, they won’t be able to come back until early spring next year. The family has never been separated for such a long time before.

However, Mrs. Liu was not as fussy and sentimental as he was at this moment.

She took into consideration the long journey and his personal safety, so she advised him to set off early and travel with Shanghang Shuheng and Zhou's caravan. Not only would his personal safety be guaranteed, but she would also feel at ease at home.

Hang Shuheng and his wife agreed very much with Mrs. Liu's idea and nodded in agreement. Even Liu Yi joined the persuasion team.

"Dad, listen to mom! Even if you want to stay at home for a little longer, it will only be a month or so. By then it will be cold, and if it snows on the road it will be even harder to walk. It is better to leave early and go with Uncle Hang and the others. When we get to the capital, we will have more time to prepare for the exam." He patted his chest and assured his father, "Don't worry about the family. I will help mom with things and take good care of my sister."

Master Liu looked at his eldest son who was growing more and more steady, and nodded with satisfaction. His son had grown into the pillar of the family.

In the end, Master Liu's vote was the only one rejected. The minority obeyed the majority and he nodded in agreement to everyone's proposal.
