"Gone!"
At the village entrance, both Su Wanqiu and Su Yun stopped their steps and looked back toward their ho.
Their faces were full of reluctance.
In fact,
they had a feeling that this ti, it might be hard to find a chance to return.
"Yes, let’s go."
Su Wanqiu forcibly turned her head away from the direction of their ho.
However, her eyes were turning red.
For this ho where they’ve lived for many years, although Chen Xuan’s brother left early on, having lived here for so long, how could there be no feelings!
"Xiaoxuanzi, Xiaoxuanzi...."
Amidst the heavy rain, Uncle Qin’s voice suddenly ca.
With old legs, he hurried over from that direction.
Alongside him was Aunt Qin.
"Uncle Qin...."
Chen Xuan quickly walked over.
He hurriedly supported him, who was out of breath, "You didn’t need to co, falling in such heavy rain wouldn’t be good."
"Ah, no, I couldn’t not see you off. Your aunt feels the sa."
Uncle Qin held his hand tightly.
His heart full of reluctance.
"Yes, we should see you off. After all the good things you’ve done for us, it would be heartless not to."
Aunt Qin added on from the side.
Moreover,
as her voice fell,
one by one, figures appeared not far away.
Uncle Wang’s family, the Yuans’...
Almost everyone who had benefited from him ca.
He even saw Liu Yue’s family with children who had also co.
Although there was still no expression on their faces, they nodded slightly at him.
At this mont,
Chen Xuan felt so moved that he couldn’t speak.
In this mont,
he truly felt the simplicity and kindness of these villagers of Shuanggang Village.
His eyes also turned moist.
"Alright, you have to hurry; the county town isn’t close. Be careful on the way. You have skills, it’s good to leave here, unlike us who have no skills and face survival problems once we leave the village."
"Yes!" Aunt Qin chid in: "You have such a promising future, your father would wake up laughing in his sleep underground. When you get to the county town, work hard!"
"Got it...!"
Chen Xuan was sowhat choked up.
"Alright, alright, go now."
Uncle Qin patted his head with his rough hands and smiled.
This smile, it was from the heart, genuinely happy for him.
"Yes!"
Chen Xuan nodded firmly.
He went to the sides of the two won.
In the heavy rain,
the figures of the three gradually disappeared from the sight of these simple villagers of Shuanggang Village.
"Ah! Old Chen, Old Chen... what a pity you can’t see this."
Uncle Qin shook his head and sighed.
.....
Black Market, Dock.
Su Wanqiu and Su Yun were still imrsed in the sorrow of leaving ho.
But Chen Xuan was completely unaffected.
Although he was indeed very touched at the village entrance farewell,
to be honest,
sotis when the atmosphere is right, emotions naturally align.
In his heart, he still liked those simple villagers.
As for the two won,
he didn’t worry much, as everyone is emotional, especially won.
In a few days, they would be fine.
At this mont,
he was troubled about how to get to the Chen Mansion.
He didn’t see his uncle.
There were boats here, but he didn’t know if they went to the Chen Mansion.
"Young Master, Young Master!"
At this mont, a sowhat familiar voice called out.
Chen Xuan followed the voice, it was the middle-aged uncle who had sent him from the Chen Mansion last night.
"Young Master?"
Su Wanqiu and Su Yun both looked at Chen Xuan in confusion.
"I’ll explain later."
Yesterday, he only ntioned that they were going to the county town, not detailing much else.
"Okay!"
Su Wanqiu nodded.
The middle-aged uncle’s boat was approaching the shore.
"Uncle, were you waiting here for to return?"
Although Chen Xuan had so guesses, he wasn’t sure.
"Haha, yes Young Master, the boats here all go to the Black Market, so I just waited here for you to co back."
The middle-aged man’s face showed a simple smile.
"Thank you!"
"No, no, Young Master, it’s what I should do, you’re too polite."
Chen Xuan’s thanks made him sowhat flustered.
After all, he was just a servant of the Chen Mansion.
Not worthy of such thanks.
Then,
Chen Xuan first boarded the boat and placed his things in the cabin, then helped the two won onto the boat one after the other.
"Young Master, we’re setting off!"
The middle-aged man called out softly, then rowed the small boat toward the direction of the Chen Mansion.
In the cabin,
the two won had a lot they wanted to ask.
But knowing it was not the right ti, they had to hold back.
And Chen Xuan just chuckled unkindly, but it was just a flash.
"Splash, splash!"
The heavy rain struck the cabin, making a series of sounds.
The middle-aged man at the boat’s head rowed with force.
At this mont,
Chen Xuan asked, "Uncle, what’s your surna?"
"Young Master, you’re being too polite. My surna is Lu, Lu Zhuo! I’m one of the three boatn of the Chen Mansion, usually whoever needs to leave the mansion uses us three. Young Master feel free to instruct us in the future!"
He was a clever person; having learned from Liu Rushi that this was the Young Master of the Chen Mansion, he had made plans.
After all,
the boatn’s status in the Chen Mansion was very low.
If he could establish a good relationship with this Young Master, his future at the Chen Mansion would be brighter.
Therefore,
after sending him away, he had been waiting here.
"Alright, I’ll trouble Uncle Lu for my outings in the future."
Chen Xuan was soone who placed importance on first impressions.
Lu Zhuo gave him a good feeling.
Moreover,
he would definitely be going out frequently, so having soone familiar was convenient.
"Great, it would be my honor to be the Young Master’s personal boatman, but I’ll have to trouble you to inform Chief Steward Liu."
Even if he was willing, he did not have the authority to decide.
"Okay!"
After Chen Xuan replied, he returned to the cabin.
.....
In front of the Chen Mansion gates!
The two won stood dumbfounded.
In disbelief as they looked at the mansion before them.
Just the gate alone was about ten tis the size of their ho.
Even if they hadn’t seen much of the world, the dark red wooden door clearly wasn’t cheap.
Not to ntion the two big stone lions at the entrance.
"Sister...."
Su Yun nervously grabbed Su Wanqiu’s arm.
And Su Wanqiu looked to Chen Xuan, also very anxious.
The two won were ordinary rural villagers, never having encountered such a luxurious mansion.
They felt like Granny Liu visiting the Grand View Garden.
Feeling nervous was inevitable.
Chen Xuan spoke to calm their emotions, "This is the place, take it easy, just treat this as ho in the future. You’ll be fine after so ti living here."
Then he walked to the gate and knocked hard a few tis.
"Open the door, I’m Chen Xuan!"
A mont later,
the door opened and Liu Rushi appeared.
A smile on her face, "Master is back, these two must be Lady Chen and sister-in-law, please co in quickly."
With that, not minding the heavy rain, she walked to the two won’s sides and warmly led them into the mansion.
"What a wonderful person!"
Chen Xuan chuckled, recognizing Liu Rushi was not just ordinary.
Then he strode into the mansion.
