After three years, the old friends finally met again.
Yang Si Niang also saw Su Ruojin. After the dance was over, she flew over and the two hugged each other tightly.
"Ajin..."
“Arong…”
The two of them burst into tears.
It was not until they sat down at Su Kee’s morning tea shop that they calmed down and slowly talked about the past three years.
At this moment, the eighteen-year-old Yang Si Niang is no longer as lively and cheerful as she was when she was a child, nor is she beaten by the hardships of the journey. She has become more steady and gentle with age, and her smile is full of expectations for the future and full of energy.
Very contradictory, but very true.
Su Ruojin felt that the eighteen-year-old girl had everything except decadence, and she secretly gave a thumbs up to her best friend.
"It's great to travel all over the country and see endless scenery!" She hugged Yang Siniang again, "Arong, you are amazing."
Yang Si Niang was embarrassed by Su Ruojin's praise and smiled shyly, "This time, Aunt Zhao and I sent students to Dongshan Academy to study, and we met you by chance."
The Aunt Zhao she mentioned was the skilled woman she hired when she left three years ago. During these three years, they had been traveling together. When they had no money, they would perform on the streets or take jobs like escorting or delivering letters. When they had money, they would continue traveling. When they had no money, they would stop and earn some money, fully enjoying their free life.
Su Ruojin was so envious that she sighed again, wishing she could join Yang Si Niang and Zhao's team immediately.
Yang Si Niang smiled and motioned Su Ruojin to look at Zhao Lan.
Zhao Lan sat on the side, seemingly calm, but in fact his brows were furrowed so tightly that he could pinch a fly to death. He was probably afraid that Yang Si Niang would abduct his wife.
Yang and Su were good friends and were chatting animatedly. However, Ning Banniang, who came along to play, was not in the mood to play. A year ago, her seventh brother Ning Hua got married to a well-matched lady from a prominent family. But she knew that her brother was not happy and had been like this for the past three years.
Should she tell her brother whether Miss Yang has returned? Or should she just let it go?
Fan Yanjia looked at his wife who was still not eating and reminded her quietly, "Aning, what are you thinking about?"
"Oh, nothing."
Last year, if he hadn't been forced to get married on the pretext that it would be hard for his sister to get married if his brother didn't, it's estimated that the seventh brother would never get married in his life.
Sighing secretly, Ning Ba Niang decided not to tell his seventh brother Yang Si Niang that she was at Dongshan Academy.
As if she heard a sigh, Yang Siniang looked towards Ning Ba Niang's table. Their eyes met and they smiled politely to each other, as if they were just people who met occasionally.
Su Ruojin asked, "Arong, after delivering a dart, how long do you plan to stay here, and where do you plan to go for fun in the future?"
Yang Si Niang said, "The owner of this escort gave me a lot. I was originally planning to leave tomorrow, but now that I met you, I plan to stay for a few days before leaving."
"That's great." Su Ruojin happily grabbed Yang Siniang and said, "Have you been to Wei County to see your sister?"
"We are preparing to leave tomorrow."
"Once I finish checking the shops here, I will go to Wei County. Let's go together."
"Okay." The two of them made an appointment and were very happy to be together again.
"Come on, I'll take you to wash up, and we'll come out for lunch later."
Yang Si Niang smiled and said, "Okay."
Zhao Lan: ...He, the future husband, was just thrown aside like that?
How could that be?
Su Ruojin walked up to Zhao Lan and said, "Brother Jin, if you have something to do, why don't you go and do it first?" Seeing his aggrieved eyes, Su Ruojin smiled guiltily and gestured, "We will have plenty of time in the future, but it's rare for best friends to get together, so just give us some time."
Zhao Lan couldn't bear the young lady's pleading eyes, so he stood up and said, "Well, I live in the restaurant, call me anytime if you need anything."
"Thank you, Brother Jin."
Fan Yanjia and Ning Banniang also stood up and went to stay at the restaurant with Zhao Lan. (End of this chapter)
