Song Wan Yue’s voice was so low that Song San Xiao did not hear it, but just saw the two of them going up the mountain.
He hurriedly got up and ran over, seeing Qi Ying’s pale face, he thought she was cold and reached out to help her, “Hurry up and go down, it’s too cold up there.”
“No harm done.”
Qi Ying put away her face full of anger and looked towards the grave he had just squatted on, “Is that Young Master Gu’s?”
Song San Xiao subconsciously looked towards Song Wan Yue, her hand quietly tugging at Qi Ying’s shirt, signalling her not to mention Gu Yi’s name in front of Yue’s face.
Qi Ying, however, lifted her feet and walked over there, “I met Young Master Gu a few times back then, he was a good man, I should pay my respects too.”
Song San Xiao hurriedly followed.
The two of them stood in front of Gu Yi.
Song Wangyue also followed, looking at the name on the tombstone, her voice was thick with sadness, “When the Gu family was burned to ashes, Gu Yi was also burned is a pile of skeletons left, but even so I’m glad that there are skeletons for me to worship, instead of just a pile of ashes left.”
Qi Ying almost bit her lip to bleed, she didn’t know if her father and the brothers in the dart board were killed before they were burned, or if they were thrown in the fire before they died.
Song Wan Yue’s voice carried a mountainous pathos, “I never told anyone that Gu Yi wasn’t killed, but burned alive, he ……”
Qi Ying’s eyes went black and he almost fainted, his body staggered, Song San Xiao was turning his head to comfort Song Wan Yue and did not see it. But he opened his mouth, but did not know how to comfort, and regretted that he had spoken without thinking, if he had not mentioned it, Yue would not have thought of coming up the mountain to see Gu Yi.
It was only after a while that he said dryly, “It’s too, too cold, let’s, let’s go back, let’s go back.”
As if he hadn’t heard, Qi Ying squatted down, his hand unconsciously reaching out and landing on the dead grass at the head of the grave, clutching it tightly.
Song Wangyue also followed and squatted down, “Not only him, there are others, they were all burned alive ……”
“Stop it!”
Qi Ying shouted as he broke down and covered his ears.
Song San Xiao was startled, “Yingzi, what’s wrong with you?”
As if he hadn’t heard, Qi Ying kept shaking his head, his mind filled with scenes of his father and his brothers in the dartboard struggling and shouting in the fire.
Seeing her like this, Song Sanxiao was horrified and panicked, wrapping her in his arms and urgently reassuring her, “Don’t be afraid, don’t be afraid.”
With that, he glared at Song Wangyue, then picked her up and walked briskly down the hill.
Song Wangyue watched their figures disappear, the corners of her mouth coldly hooked up.
Qi Ying tightly grabbed Song San Xiao’s clothes, “Let’s go back to the county, now.”
Song Sanxiao thought she was frightened and softened her voice to comfort, “It’s okay, just go back and get some sleep ……”
“Back to the county town!”
Qi Ying suddenly raised his voice, Song Sanxiao was so scared that his hands shook and almost threw the person out. He did not dare to say anything else, coaxing, “Okay, back to the county, back to the county, let’s go back immediately.”
When Song Wan Yue slowly came down from the hill, she saw Song San Xiao saying something to Song Shen.
Song Shen saw her, “Little sister.”
Song San Xiao also turned around, her voice tinged with eagerness, “Yue’er, you came down just in time, Yingzi had to go back, I’ll borrow the carriage for now, I’ll send it back tomorrow.”
“What’s wrong?”
Song Wan Yue asked knowingly.
Song San Xiao was filled with Qi Ying’s pale face, “The things you said scared her, she doesn’t dare to stay here anymore.”
Song Wan Yue felt a little “guilty”, “Then Second Brother and I will take you back, so that you don’t have to send the carriage back tomorrow and have no one to look after him.”
“That’s fine, you guys wait, I’ll go carry her out.”
Song San Xiao went back inside and put the parcel he had just packed on his arm, and picked up the quilt he had brought with him, “Yue’er and Shen’er will see us back.”
“No need for them!”
Qi Ying almost jumped up as if her tail had been stepped on, her voice shrill, “No need for them to send us!”
Song Sanxiao only thought she was afraid of trouble and explained, “If I rush the carriage back, I’ll have to send it back tomorrow, there’ll be no one to take care of you, they ……”
“I said, don’t let them send it, don’t you understand?”
Qi Ying yelled at him with a hissing voice, Song San Xiao froze stunned.
Outside the courtyard, Song Wangyue and Song Shen heard clearly, Song Shen looked at Song Wangyue, “What did you do to her?”
Song Wan Yue laughed quietly, “I just told her about Gu Yi’s tragic death.”
Looking at her laugh, Song Shen pursed his lips, Gu Yi was a taboo to Yue’s family, no one dared to mention it, but Qi Ying had repeatedly tested Yue’s boundaries, she was lucky not to be scared out of her mind.
“Third Uncle!”
Song Wan Yue raised her voice.
The sound reached Qi Ying’s ears and she shivered uncontrollably.
Before Song Sanxiao could respond, Song Wangyue’s voice came in again, “Since sister Qi doesn’t want us to send her, we won’t send her, just send the carriage to the restaurant when you get back.” Song Sanxiao gave a “hey”.
When he came out, he only saw the backs of Song Wangyue and Song Shen walking towards the mountain.
He put his things on the carriage, went back to the house and carried Qi Ying out and put her on the carriage. His lips moved as if he wanted to say something, but in the end he said nothing, turned his horse around and left the workshop.
On the hill, the people had not yet started training, seeing Song Wan Yue coming up, Song San was not afraid to come over, “Dongjia, a few moves?”
Song Wangyue raised her eyebrows, “Are you sure?”
Song San swallowed fiercely, “Sure, sure, sure, sure.”
“Good.”
Song Wangyue held out her hand, and immediately someone placed a branch in her hand.
“Dong, Dongjia ……”
Song San subconsciously stepped back, “Let’s, let’s just cut, cut, no, no ……”
Song Wangyue gestured for him to choose a weapon, “Let you make three moves.”
Song San’s feet were a little weak, but he was the one who proposed to cross the stance, if he didn’t compete, the proprietor could throw him off the mountain.
“Say, say yes, point, point to point.”
After saying that, he took out his dagger, set up his stance and attacked.
Song Wangyue gave him three moves first.
The fourth move blocked, the fifth counter-attacked, and by the sixth move the branch was already at his throat.
Song San was too frightened to move.
Song Wangyue threw the branch to the man who had just handed it to her, “Not bad, you’ve grown.”
Song San’s face was a little red, he had been practicing for months, but he still couldn’t get past a few moves in the hands of the Dongjia.
“I’m going to go to Jiangnan in a couple of months, I’ll pick some of you to follow, practice well and don’t let me down.”
The eyes of the crowd instantly lit up. Jiangnan was said to be picturesque, if they could go there, it would be worth it for the rest of their lives.
Song Wangyue nodded towards Master Chu and went down the mountain with Song Shen. Without a carriage, the two of them simply walked back home. As soon as they entered the house, Grandma Song saw them and was very surprised, “You are walking back, where is the carriage?”
“Sister Qi insisted on going back, Third Uncle drove it away, I told him to send it to the restaurant and have the mate send it over.”
Grandma Song frowned, “Why did you have to go back today?”
