Chapter 437 The Old Man Caught Up
After the carriage ran for a while, Yingyi found Lao Ting following them.
"Miss, the old man is following us." He reported to his master and Miss Xiaoxi.
"Hurry up, carriage!" Gu Xiaoxi ordered.
"Yes!" Ying Yi did as he was told.
The carriage galloped away, and Lao Ting hurriedly sped up to catch up.
From morning to afternoon, Gu Xiaoxi and his companions' carriage stopped outside the manor.
Some people got off the carriages to help in the shops, while some drove the carriages into the farm to unload the prey.
Hearing the sound of horse hooves, Concubine Pang hurriedly ran out of the farm with Nanny Yang.
"Madam, please slow down!" Nanny Yang jogged after her.
When Gu Feng saw Mrs. Pang, she quickly hid in the shop. Ruixue and Bingxue followed her into the shop, covering their mouths.
When Concubine Pang saw the two girls walking so close to Gu Feng, she suddenly felt a little worried.
"Do you think Afeng will be interested in these two girls in the future?" she asked Nanny Yang in a low voice.
Nanny Yang was stunned for a moment, then said, "That shouldn't be the case! I think Master Afeng treats them as his sisters."
"He treats the two girls as his sisters, but what about the other two girls?" Concubine Pang was worried.
Nanny Yang felt that it would be fine even if they were together. Gu Xiaoxi raised the child so well. It would be more reliable for Young Master Afeng to find someone who knew him well than to find someone from outside.
But, as a servant, she didn't dare to say such words.
"No! Even if Afeng wants to get married, he must be from a noble family." Concubine Pang attaches great importance to these.
Ye Lixuan, who was originally going to help in the store, saw Afeng hiding in the store and guessed that it must be his mother.
He walked out of the shop and came to his mother and said, "Mom, don't be too enthusiastic towards Afeng. You scare people away so much that they dare not come out."
"Mother, mother, aren't you missing your child?" said Concubine Pang.
"If you continue like this and you can't see Afeng in the future, don't come to me crying." Ye Lixuan said this and turned to leave, but was pulled back by his mother.
"Wait a minute, I have something else to tell you." Concubine Pang wanted to talk about Afeng and the two girls.
Ye Lixuan found an excuse to leave.
snort!
Concubine Pang was so angry that her teeth ached.
"Master, please don't be angry. The Second Master just came back and must be very tired. If you have anything to say, please wait until he has rested." Nanny Yang stepped forward and persuaded.
After hearing what Nanny Yang said, Concubine Pang finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Lao Ting, who was not far away, followed. He hadn't thought about how to start the conversation, but he saw Concubine Pang, who looked somewhat familiar.
He walked up to the master and servant and asked, "Are you the girl from the Pang family?"
Concubine Pang suddenly looked up at the old man in front of her. She seemed to have heard this voice somewhere before.
She looked up and down, and suddenly knelt down in shock.
"Get up, get up, I am the ancestor of your father's family." Lao Ting said happily when he saw that he was not wrong.
"Yes, Ancestor!" Concubine Pang looked obviously very nervous.
"No wonder I felt like I'd seen that guy somewhere before. This must be fate.
"Old Ancestor has been following their carriage for the whole morning and is tired. Let's find a place for him to wash and change clothes." Old Ting said familiarly.
"Ancestor, please come in!" Concubine Pang respectfully invited the person into the manor.
When Dashun and Ying saw Concubine Pang respectfully invite the old man into the manor, they thought they were seeing things.
"Brother Yingyi, am I dazzled? Madam Pang knows that old man?" Dashun looked at Yingyi with curiosity.
Yingyi was even more curious. How could Concubine Pang, a woman from the deep palace, know this old man who had been in seclusion in the mountains for ten years?
Realizing that something was wrong, he hurried into the farm to report to his master.
Dashun also went to find the lady and told her about this.
"What did you say? Mrs. Pang seems to be very familiar with that old man?" Gu Xiaoxi was confused after hearing this.
She also wondered how a woman who had lived in the backyard of the palace all year round could know such an old man?
"I understand. Go ahead and do your thing. There's no need to make this public. Maybe Senior Lao Ting is just an old acquaintance of Madam Pang." She said casually and let him go about his own business.
After sending Dashun away, she also entered the farm.
After coming in, she planned to go to Concubine Pang to see what was going on, but before she went in, she heard their voices.
"Ali, this is the ancestor of our family. Come and kowtow to him." When Concubine Pang saw Ali coming in, she quickly called people over.
Ye Lixuan...
When did such an ancestor appear in my mother's family? I've never heard her mention it before.
However, since my mother said it was true, this old man is quite capable anyway.
"Ali, kowtow to the ancestor!" He stepped forward and knelt down to kowtow.
"Get up!" Lao Ting pulled Ye Lixuan up from the ground.
He chuckled and said, "This boy is okay, but he's not as capable as that girl.
By the way, that girl is the great-grandson's wife, right?" Lao Ting was more concerned about this matter.
"Ancestor, not yet!" Ye Lixuan replied embarrassedly.
Upon hearing this, Lao Ting said dissatisfiedly, "A grown man, when you see a woman you like, you should act quickly. A woman as outstanding as her can't be given to outsiders."
"Ancestor is right!" Ye Lixuan thought so too.
After hearing this, Gu Xiaoxi decided not to go in, so as not to embarrass her.
Ye Lixuan knew Lao Ting's new identity, and ordered Ying Yi and others to prepare the things Lao Ting needed to live there, and arranged for him to live in his own yard so that he could take care of him.
When everyone came back in the evening, they found a strange old man in the yard.
After Concubine Pang introduced him, everyone realized that this old man was of such a high generation and was actually someone's ancestor.
No matter what, since he is a senior, we should show him more respect and care.
When Mr. and Mrs. Gu heard that someone of such a high generation had arrived, they welcomed Lao Ting very much.
Gu Xiaoxi accompanied Lao Ting to drink and chat. It was absolutely impossible for her to spend all her time on learning from the old man.
She hated the feeling of being led by the nose, so the next morning, after explaining some things, she went into the mountains with her backpack on her back.
When Lao Ting woke up and heard that Gu Xiaoxi had gone out, he anxiously asked Ye Lixuan: "Ali, where did Xiaoxi go? Why did she go out again after coming back?"
"Ancestor, I don't know about that. She often has patients to see, and she's away for several days, or even more than ten days." Ye Lixuan also knew the reason why Lao Ting followed her back.
However, they are not idle and there are many things that need to be planned. It is impossible for them to just revolve around the old man.
"Ali, is it that you all don't like me?" Lao Ting seemed to sense something?
Ye Lixuan looked at the old man's pitiful appearance and finally told him the reason why Gu Xiaoxi was angry.
