Chapter 208 Too Late



Jiang Nuan didn't take Huang Lao Er's little tantrum to heart. After instructing Xie Shi to leave him some food, she ignored him.

The day's events had little impact on the Huang family. After a quiet dinner, the family members went back to their respective rooms to rest.

However, this is only the surface.

A short while later, two half-grown figures emerged from the quiet courtyard. Huang Xiaosi and Huang Xiaopang came over to chat with Huang Xiaoliu. The two of them and the ox spoke in human language and the ox language respectively, making quite a scene.

Meanwhile, in Huang Xiaosan's room, the young couple were excitedly discussing the day's events.

In Huang Lao Er's room, Xie Shi held Da Ya, looking at her husband who was still meditating with a headache...

After Xiao Wu fell asleep in the bedroom, Jiang Nuan went directly into the space.

The scene in the space was still gloomy, but it was a little better than before. After sprinkling the spring water, Jiang Nuan began her daily homework.

The next day, before the fourth watch had even begun, there was a loud knocking on the door of the Huang family's house.

In the courtyard, Huang Xiaoliu kept mooing in response, and soon woke everyone up.

Outside the door, Lai Zi, dressed in a red robe, looked at the gate with a nervous expression.

I had been looking forward to this day for a long time, but when it finally came, I realized that I didn't have that much willpower. I couldn't sleep all night, and before the rooster even crowed, he put on his new clothes and came knocking on the door.

Huang Xiaosan rubbed his eyes, looked outside the door, then looked up at the twinkling stars in the sky, and immediately felt helpless. "Brother Lai, why are you here so early?"

There are still several hours until the auspicious time!

"It's not much longer, only two or three hours. We still need to go to the county town, it's getting late."

“We can still make it after breakfast,” Huang Xiaosan said, bringing over a stool. “Breakfast will be quick, we’ll leave as soon as we finish eating.”

"No," Lai Zi quickly said, "Let's go to the county town to eat. We need to leave now. There are still a group of people waiting. If we delay any longer, it will be too late."

Upon hearing this, Huang Xiaosan looked up at the still star-studded sky, then lowered his eyes to hide his emotions. "Brother Lai, wait a moment. I'll go wake up Second Brother and help him wash up."

"Hurry up, we're really going to be late."

"Okay!" Huang Xiaosan replied resignedly.

Urged on by Lai Zi, the Huang brothers didn't dare to dawdle. When Jiang Nuan and the others got up and came out, the group was already on the oxcart and had set off.

In the county town, at Inspector Niu's residence, he got up especially early to support Lai Zi.

Just as I started washing up, I heard Lai Zi shout, "Boss, are you up yet?"

He wiped his hands, walked over and opened the door. Looking up, he saw three faces side by side: one smiling foolishly, one looking somewhat awkward, and the other exceptionally lively.

"Why are you here so early?" He looked up at the sky. "You didn't set off at four in the morning, did you?"

Not only that, they set off before the fourth watch of the night.

Huang Lao Er nodded frantically in agreement.

Although he wasn't very sleepy after meditating, it was so cold in the morning that he really didn't want to go out.

“Alright,” Inspector Niu laughed, “I know you’re in a hurry, let’s set off after breakfast.”

“Boss,” Lai Zi rubbed his hands awkwardly, “Once you’re all packed, we’ll set off. I already talked to Juquanlou a couple of days ago and asked them to make a hundred meat buns so we can eat them on the way.”

Forehead……

Upon hearing this, Inspector Niu's smile froze.
