Until three days ago--
That night, Ah Chen called her.
Even though She Ling heard Ah Chen say that everything was alright, she was still worried at that moment.
Her concern wasn't about ruining Mu Achen's Miao marriage, but rather—
She knew that she and Mu Achen could never have feelings that went beyond friendship, so she cherished this close friend.
Naturally, I also wanted to see where my former best friend lived.
only--
That night, after hearing Mu Achen talk about her teacher Meng Ci, she knew the truth in her heart, but it would probably take her some time to completely forget this misunderstanding.
So this time she came alone, without contacting Teacher Meng.
At that moment, she followed the alleys in the Miao village, asking where Mu Achen's family was.
But as she got closer, she saw several non-Miao people pointing and gesturing to her left, seemingly asking the Miao people something.
So she slowly walked over, and then she heard the man with the air of a boss ask the old woman who was locking the door.
“Auntie, every family in your village has one or two people from out of town who came to buy sacred fruit. I see this wooden building is empty. Would it be alright if we stayed here?”
"Yes, ma'am, we'll stay here. We'll pay you and we won't damage your things."
These non-Miao people must have been wealthy merchants, as they spoke quite politely and even pulled out several hundred-yuan bills.
Presumably, they all knew this was Heiwu Village, a wealthy Miao village, and that giving too little might make things difficult for those below.
After all, they planned to start with Black Crow Village, spend some money to build connections, and take a shortcut to buy the sacred fruit.
Of course, it would be even better if we could get our hands on the legendary "Supreme Beauty" and that top-quality tea.
Besides, they had inquired beforehand that the Miao grandmothers were the most formidable.
The old woman only glanced at the money in their hands before locking the door again.
On the other hand, there was another group of middle-aged men in their forties. One of them glanced at the beautiful woman beside him, then stepped forward and said to the old woman, "Auntie, do you remember me? I came here last year."
Ma'am?
This way of addressing her is quite to her liking.
Sure enough, the old woman's originally dark face finally softened a little.
The Miao people prefer to hear terms like "auntie," "grandma," and "grandma," and don't care for terms like "auntie" or "auntie."
Although the old woman could understand some Mandarin, she couldn't speak it. It was the Miao man next to her who asked her, and then she said to the middle-aged man, "The old woman said that there were too many people coming last year, so she doesn't remember!"
“Young man, tell Grandma that when we came here last year, we drank with Ah Chen. We know this is Ah Chen’s home here, so we asked where we could find Ah Chen. We are not allowed to go up to the orchard now.”
Looking for Ah Chen?
Did you drink with Ah Chen here last year?
Finally, a smile appeared on the old woman's face.
The middle-aged man then said, "Young master, my name is He Yuanshan. Ah Chen will recognize me as soon as he hears my name."
It turns out that this person is He Yuanshan, and the woman next to him must be the female boss, Jiang Rong.
He Yuanshan and Jiang Rong arrived yesterday, but unfortunately they only heard that Mu Achen had been attacked and had been unconscious for the past few days.
They wanted to visit, but they couldn't go to Guolin's place at all.
So I thought I'd come to Mu Achen's old house, but who knew there were these idiots next door who actually thought they could pay to move into this house? They're just daydreaming.
This is the old house of the future Miao King. With Mu Achen not home, who has the right to live here?
Non-Miao people are not allowed to enter Heiwu Village without authorization.
He Yuanshan and his group naturally wouldn't be delusional; they already had a place to stay, right across from the orchard.
Since I've been here before and know the Miao people who are in charge of accommodation arrangements, they'll naturally help me make some adjustments and free up one or two seats, so it shouldn't be a problem.
but--
The young man whispered a few words to the old woman before saying to He Yuanshan, "We don't know where Achen is. Since you know him, call him."
"Can't get through, no signal!"
"If you have something important to say to him, go to the entrance of the orchard and ask them to pass on your message."
"Young Master, I heard that you can also go to the orchard from here. Can we go from here?" Jiang Rong interjected.
"Jiang Rong, don't talk nonsense," He Yuanshan hurriedly stopped her.
But the next second, the old woman's face, which had just been smiling, instantly turned black, and then---
No one knows what the old woman said, but Miao Lang stared at Jiang Rong and said, "The old woman said that the path to the orchard is not to be taken! If you don't listen to her advice and go in on your own, and you die in there, our Miao village will not be responsible for burying you."
cough cough--
Jiang Rong choked.
He Yuanshan quickly tried to smooth things over, even glaring at Jiang Rong.
As they were talking, the sound of horses' hooves came from the alley.
Da da da---
A few seconds later, two young women rode up on horseback. From a distance, the younger woman in front could be heard calling out in their direction:
"Grandma--"
I couldn't understand what she was shouting, but the old woman's originally dark face broke into a smile, and she strode forward.
"Duoduo".
It's Duoduo.
She couldn't find her brother when she got home. She wanted to go to the Starry Sky Orchard, but the aunties there said that her brother had returned, but they didn't know where he was. However, the Holy Maiden was in Que Dong Village.
The uncles of Keque Dongzhai said that Achen had been there, but left after a short time, and they didn't know where he went.
