After playing in Yuncheng for a few more days, Xu Ning was ready to say goodbye and suggested going back to Xianyu Village to take a look.
Jiang Yan said that he happened to have time and could go with her, and then they would take a boat back to Haicheng from Shanglu County together.
Xu Ning had no objection, and the group left Yuncheng and headed southeast.
After seven or eight days of carriage travel, we finally arrived in Shanglu County in the evening.
Shanglu County has recovered somewhat after several years of renovation, and some traces of the past can still be vaguely seen.
The secret guards had already gone to the house that had been prepared in Jiang Yan's name to make arrangements, so Jiang Yan and his companions could have a good meal and rest once they arrived.
There were people serving him along the way, and Xu Ning hardly got out of the carriage except to lie down when he was tired.
Unconsciously, Xu Ning got used to this kind of life where someone would take care of him at all times.
The fat fox adapted faster than Xu Ning. He had become good friends with Jiang Yi a long time ago and sometimes even forgot about his master Xu Ning.
During this period of time, Jiang Yi almost raised the fat fox into a big golden retriever!
Not long after, the carriage drove into a backyard. Jiang Yan got off the carriage first, and then Xu Ning jumped down behind the fat fox.
"Little fatty, it's only been a few days and you've become so fat!" When Xu Ning got off the carriage, she was tripped by the fat fox that came over. Jiang Yan, who got off the carriage first, helped her in time.
"Thank you!" Xu Ning blushed and quickly stepped back. Jiang Yan also let go of his hand that was supporting her shoulders.
Xu Ning lowered his head somewhat embarrassedly, and out of the corner of his eye he seemed to see Jiang Yan twisting his slender fingertips.
What is this? Her pupils shrank. Why did he do this? And she saw it!
Xu Ning didn't dare meet his gaze, fearing she was imagining things. For a middle-aged girl who had virtually no physical contact with males in her previous life (except for her younger brother and nephew), this single action was enough to make her uncomfortable.
She had no choice but to squat down and pull the fat fox's ears, "You big fat guy, you almost tripped me! You deserve a beating!"
"Wow~" The fat fox was not afraid at all, and was wagging its tail excitedly. Its fluffy tail was like a broom, sweeping back and forth in the space between Xu Ning and Jiang Yan's legs.
Jiang Yi, who came over to invite the two to dinner, saw this scene and also had the illusion that this was a "family of three".
The obsequious fat fox in the middle really looks like a "big boy."
When Jiang Yan saw Jiang Yi coming, he naturally knew what was going on. However, he did not urge Xu Ning. Instead, he waited patiently on the side. Only after the thin figure had played enough did he follow him into the house.
At this time, the setting sun shone into the yard through the high wall, lengthening the shadows of several people.
Xu Ning couldn't help but stop and turn his head to look. The sunset glow at the seaside was so red and purple that it seemed unreal.
She seemed to have heard someone say before that when such an overly brilliant sunset appeared, a typhoon was coming.
When the Xu family settled in Xianyu Village that year, it was already the second half of winter and the typhoons that had hit the coast for the entire year had all blown away, and some of them were minor and harmless typhoons.
The biggest one was the tsunami the following year, but it wasn't just a typhoon, there was also an earthquake.
"Jiang Shaoheng, I'm afraid it's going to rain heavily in the next few days." It seems that we can't set off so soon and have to wait until the typhoon is over.
I just hope the typhoon isn’t too strong, otherwise the vitality that Shanglu County has just recovered will be taken away again.
When Jiang Yan learned that a strong wind was coming, he quickly ordered people to go out and investigate the situation. The elderly people living on the seaside have more experience, and seeing this abnormal sunset should also remind the young people.
Sure enough, after Xu Ning ate a bowl of rice with trepidation, Jiang Yan's men came to report that some old men had already planned to take their people to hide in the mountains.
"Bao, how big is this typhoon?"
"Hello, player. This typhoon has been scanned by the main system and is at least level eight."
Level 8?! That's a level that would blow anyone thin away!
"Jiang Shaoheng, let's go to the county government office and have someone notify the people so they can prepare for the coming strong wind!"
