When Xue Hanyu woke up, the two were already by the river, and she was covered with a thin blanket.
As soon as she moved, Cheng Jinxing, who was dozing against a rock next to her, also moved.
"Aunt Hanyu, did you sleep well?"
Cheng Jinxing asked.
"Jinxing, where is this?"
Xue Hanyu looked around and felt a little confused.
"This is the ditch beneath Old Lady Shen's grave. Just as you fell asleep, the Shen family's gravekeepers saw a light in the graveyard and came over to check. I borrowed a thin blanket from them."
Cheng Jinxing replied.
"oh!"
Xue Hanyu responded.
"Aunt Hanyu, are you feeling better?"
Cheng Jinxing leaned against the big rock again, looked up at the sky and asked.
"Yeah, better. I feel better now."
Xue Hanyu sat up and smiled at Cheng Jinxing.
"That's good!" Cheng Jinxing smiled and continued, "Aunt Hanyu, do you want to sit for a while or go home? It's still two hours before dawn, and it will take us half an hour to get home. Of course, if you want to go somewhere for a day, I can take you there!"
"Well, well..." Xue Hanyu looked up and thought for a moment, then said, "Let's just sit here and chat, and go home before dawn."
"Okay! Aunt Hanyu, can you ride a horse?"
"No, we always ride in a carriage. My eldest cousin tried to teach me when I was little, but I didn't dare!"
"So do you want to learn how to ride a horse? I'll teach you! After I buy a pony!"
"Well, this..."
"Yes, learn! Horseback riding is fun. My aunt knows how to ride. Once you learn how to ride, you can go wherever you want. Riding a horse is much faster than taking a carriage!"
"Okay then! Jinxing, you're so nice!"
“…”
The two chatted casually like this, and they didn't feel like they had nothing to talk about. Instead, they became more and more excited as they talked.
Cheng Jinxing also noticed that Xue Hanyu was in much better condition than before. She was not pretending to be like that, but was really much better.
He couldn't help but feel relieved, without even noticing it.
…
The next morning, Cheng Yue wanted to find Xue Hanyu to chat, but she was sleeping.
The tavern no longer serves breakfast, so she and Cheng Wen don't need to go there so early.
"Stinky boy, what did you do last night when you asked your uncle Shanshui to borrow the carriage?"
Xue Hanyu was sleeping, so Cheng Yue didn't bother to disturb her. When she passed by her two nephews' room, she saw through the window that Cheng Jinxing was wearing his usual clothes, and it seemed that he was getting ready to go out.
"Aunt, how did you know? I told Shanshui not to tell anyone!"
Cheng Jinxing pulled Cheng Yue into the house and whispered.
"Hmph, if you don't want others to know, then don't do it yourself! Tell me, did you go to the city to date a girl? Don't think I don't know that the cook's daughter in the government office is interested in you!"
Cheng Yue raised her eyebrows and asked.
"Auntie, don't talk nonsense! I'm still young! I don't like girls!"
Cheng Jinxing rolled his eyes at Cheng Yue.
"You don't like girls? Could it be that you like boys?"
Cheng Yue said in surprise.
"Auntie! If you keep talking nonsense, I'll..."
"You, what's wrong with you? Tell me!"
"I'll tell my grandparents about you, saying you're talking nonsense and suspecting I like men. I'm not sick!"
"So what did you do last night?"
Cheng Yue always felt that there was something wrong with this kid borrowing a carriage so late at night. Anyway, it was still early and she was not in a hurry to go to the city. She still had to care about her nephew.
