Chapter 1667: Chapter 1667: Settling Down
Couldn’t sleep at night after an afternoon nap, Su Xing slept soundly, so he simply went into the space.
In the next two days, the house was completed, and Yuanyuan went to the city once more. There was no window paper, no scissors, no floor mat. No door curtains, no bed curtains.
The four of them could do without, but she must have them, especially since the carpenter was installing the door today.
Seeing some pork for sale, she bought five pounds. Even though they paid to stay at the village chief’s house, they should have a nice meal together. Upon returning, she saw smoke coming from the chimney; it was for heating the floor.
Yuanyuan knew the village chief’s thoughts, they wouldn’t stay long, so why be so particular? She didn’t want to wrong herself.
Back at home, the village chief’s son helped to paste window paper. Yuanyuan handed the meat to the middle-aged woman.
"Aunt, let’s improve our meal a bit, as a thank you for taking care of us."
The middle-aged woman was very happy, the piece of meat was quite fatty, and could provide a lot of oil, also satisfy cravings.
She hurriedly went to stew the meat, slow-cooked for better flavor.
Su Lin and the others were driving the cart back home. Mats and other things also needed to be sent back.
That evening, everyone was satisfied to eat meat, especially the kids, who could only have it on Chinese New Year’s in a farmhouse.
Yuanyuan ate a few pieces and thought they were delicious. Seeing the little girl eating cautiously, she added a piece to her bowl.
Now the village chief’s family was no longer as cautious around the five of them. The little girl gratefully gave Yuanyuan a glance.
To be honest, women’s status is really low.
Two days later, the new house was ready, and it was convenient for the five to move in.
Since arriving here, Yuanyuan felt much more at ease.
This was finally a settled down situation. Life was getting on track. Su Xing continued to practice martial arts and read every day.
After settling down, Yuanyuan thought about visiting the military camp, but assumed they wouldn’t let her in.
The weather was hot now, making her feel restless.
Su Lin was the one cooking, having learned from a cook before, and the taste was alright.
"Su Xing, why don’t we let Su Lin and the other two go to the military camp? They all have skills, there shouldn’t be a problem joining.
Maybe they can even meet Dad. Although Dad can’t come out to see us yet, with Su Lin and the others, we’d at least have news.
Moreover, this place is quite safe, and we wouldn’t need Su Lin and the others for protection."
Su Xing thought his sister made sense. "Alright. We four will go tomorrow, if Su Lin and the others can get in, that would be best."
Yuanyuan agreed; her dad shouldn’t have problems. She had a feeling he was inside the camp.
"Give it a try. If you want to get in, there shouldn’t be a problem, don’t worry. In this simple village, I am absolutely safe."
"Sis. I won’t go. Dad will come to see us, I want to stay with you."
"Okay."
The next day, the four of them drove away, leaving Yuanyuan alone.
Now there was time to inspect the space, feeling many areas were partitioned off. What could be seen was just some grain.
Not bad, at least the grains weren’t partitioned away.
Actually, as long as she could come in and have food and drink, it was fine.
She had a good sleep in the space anyway; there’s always someone tall to hold up the sky when it falls.
Su Xing and the others drove to the camp entrance and called for Uncle Feng.
"Uncle Feng, we are already settled. Can Su Lin and the other two enter the camp? I don’t need their protection, the village is safe."
"What if there is danger in the future?"
"Uncle Feng. By then, even with Su Lin and the others by my side, it may not be safe."
Feng Xi nodded. "Alright, the three of them stay. The General also wants to know about Su Xing."
Su Xing felt relieved now. Watching Su Lin and the others follow inside, he then drove back.
This made Yuanyuan feel more at ease. After going out, she brought back many good things, cooking meals for Su Xing every day.
At night, Su Lin and the others met with the master, "Miss also came together?"
"Yes, it was Miss who brought the young master here, and the people at the house were dismissed. Only five remained."
"Hmm, how is Miss now?"
"Quite well. There is a new house in Zhang Village. Now, with the young master and young lady together, there is no danger."
"That’s good."
"Miss said to let us come in. She said the master would want to know about them."
Su Wanshan nodded. Soon, the family could reunite, and he could see the children.
They really came at the right time. If they had stayed at the house, there would surely be danger.
Luckily, they came here. Now he had no worries at all.
"On the way, Miss rode a horse to come."
Su Wanshan’s eyes were filled with joy, the daughter was more spirited than the son, hence she was never restricted, and even found a mentor for her.
About the Li Family, it was really a good thing they broke off the engagement, it was what he wanted. Otherwise, he would have arranged for it himself, giving him an excuse to deal with them.
"What was Miss’s reaction to the Li Family breaking off the engagement?"
"Master, we are not sure, just know Miss fell ill, but got better later and asked the young master to organize the house, also went to the government to file, saying he’s returning to the hometown."
Su Wanshan nodded. His daughter’s fondness for the Li Family must have made her sad.
Never mind, he felt reluctant now.
Su Wanshan felt at ease knowing his daughter and son’s situation, as long as they were safe.
The siblings rarely went out in the village, lessening people’s curiosity over time.
After dinner that day, relaxing in the courtyard, Yuanyuan hated it, but it was hot inside the house, and there were many mosquitoes outside.
Su Xing was talking to his sister about what he read today.
Hearing a knock, Su Xing responded and went out.
"Dad? Dad!"
Yuanyuan stood up upon hearing Su Xing and saw the man entering.
Tall and strong, with a face that looked honest and loyal.
"Yuanyuan, you’ve been wronged."
Yuanyuan felt her eyes and nose prickling.
"Dad, as long as you’re okay." This was the inherent feelings of the body.
"I’m fine, but the situation isn’t resolved yet, I’m only here to see you."
"Dad, are you in any danger?" Su Xing was anxious.
"No."
"Dad, have you eaten? I’ll go make you something."
"No. I’d love to try my daughter’s cooking."
"Dad, my sister cooks really well."
Su Wanshan sat down, quietly explaining everything to his son.
"You both did the right thing coming here. Otherwise, there would definitely be danger. I only realized it later."
"Dad, my sister said we should come find you. The information we got was that you disappeared.
Dad, are we going to live here?"
"Yes, the camp isn’t suitable for you. That person up there wants to return; the Capital might get chaotic. You’re safest here, and later when things calm down, I’ll resign and we’ll find a serene place to live."
