Chapter 349 - A Family of Four And Their Dog

Chapter 349 A Family of Four And Their DogTang Ming hesitates again. Huo Liyun stares at him and smiles.

“Tang Ming, you are so old but you want to marry a girl who can be your daughter. Well, you are clear that she just wants your poverty, right? If she knows that she will only get 10% shares, do you think she will marry you?”

“Let’s talk about the company.” Huo Liyun’s eyes become cold. She says, “You know the company’s situation during these years. Without Bai Susu and the Tang Yu brothers, the company won’t exist after you retire. Do you want to give all these to that b***h and her children? Bah! You’re dreaming!”

“What are you talking about?” Tang Ming is a little annoyed. He says, “I always treat the Tang Yu brothers as my own sons. How can I treat them badly?”

Huo Liyun sneers, “I don’t believe you. Do you think I only learn how to swear from Tai Island? I’m dying. But you still want a new wife. Do you want to share my end?”

“How irrational you are!” Tang Ming stands up and asks, “Do you want to turn against me now?”

“I’m dying and have no time to coax you.” The skin on Huo Liyun’s face is shaking and seems to fall down. Tang Ming can’t help taking a few steps back. Then he grits his teeth and finally promises.

“Okay, I will make a will as you wish!”

Lang Ruoxian knows that Tang Ming calls a lawyer. Although he doesn’t know what Tang Ming is going to do, it’s not hard for him to guess.

“It’s convenient for us.” He tells Bai Susu, “We don’t need to do anything. They will have internal problems.”

Bai Susu’s eyes flash. She says, “We can help them…”

“Mom, Hua Family will be more willing to help them.” Lang Ruoxian curls the corner of his mouth and says, “Once they know that Hua Yating’s kid is not the only heir, they will take actions.”

Tang Duo secretly sends a message to Hua Zhong. After talking aimlessly for a short time, she asks Hua Zhong inadvertently.

“I don’t know what kind of disease my eldest aunt gets. She is dying.”

Hua Zhong replies, “I heard that she seemed to be bewitched. Yating will return home in a few days. We’ll go to visit her.”

Tang Duo says, “But what I heard is different from you. It’s said that she is sick because Eldest Uncle makes her angry.”

“…She is so angry that she gets sick?”

“Right! It seems that he’s got a mistress.”

Hua Zhong is speechless.

Tang Duo is cheering in her heart. When she turns her head, she sees Lang Ruoxian looking at her.

“I didn’t do anything!” She immediately says, “I just want to inform the Hua Family with the best of intentions.”

Lang Ruoxian doesn’t make a sound. He comes up to her and sits down. Then he says, “Gungun’s birthday is coming. He said he wanted us to travel this year.”

“His birthday is in March. He doesn’t have a holiday at that time.” Tang Duo is stunned and says, “Besides, we need to take care of twins…”

“So the place he chose is near Yanjing. We can go there on weekends.” Lang Ruoxian asks her, “Can we let Mom and Grandma to take care of twins for two days?”

“It’s OK…” Tang Duo still feels it strange and asks, “But why does he want to have a trip? His school just took them to northern Europe at Christmas.”

Lang Ruoxian says calmly, “Maybe he is jealous.”

“Jealous? Who is he jealous of?” Tang Duo is shocked.

“After all, he’s only 8 years old. He used to be the only child in our family. Now he suddenly has younger siblings. Everyone’s attention has been turned away from him, which may make him uncomfortable.”

Tang Duo looks at the man suspiciously. Is her innocent and cute son so sensitive? Besides, he is not the only child in family before. They have Wuyou!

“Wuyou is more like an adult than Tang Cao.” Lang Ruoxian seems to know how she thinks. He says, “I think it’s better to take him out, otherwise it’ll be more troublesome in case that he has psychological shadow.”

Tang Duo of course should agree with him. Bai Susu is very happy when she hears they will have a trip.

“Go to have a trip! Why not play more days? Don’t worry about the twins. I and your grandma will accompany them. Anyway, you just play with them at home and the persons who take care of them are us.”

Tang Duo doesn’t know what to say.

“Dad, you should thank me this time.” Gungun is bargaining with Lang Ruoxian where Tang Duo can’t see.

Lang Ruoxian looks down at the little boy and asks, “What do you want?”

“You should take me to the place where Wuyou will receive training this summer.” Gungun requests.

“I also want to take you there. But you are too weak. The drillmaster doesn’t want to teach you.”

Gungun complains, “…Dad, you will traumatize children if you knock their confidence like that.”

“You won’t be traumatized.” Lang Ruoxian continues to knock his son’s confidence, “Your brain’s capacity is small. So you will forget that immediately.”

“I’ll tell Mom that you threaten me to have a trip on my birthday!” Gungun decides to expose his father.

Lang Ruoxian says, “Then I will send Wuyou to study abroad and make you have a long-distance love.”

“Dad is the devil!” Gungun roars and then runs away.

When Tang Duo goes downstairs, she sees Gungun running so quickly as if he is chased by a dog. So she asks.

“What happened to my son?”

“It’s OK. He wants to take Lulu for a walk.” Lang Ruoxian asks a question to shift her attention, “Have you decided where to go?”

Tang Duo immediately cheers up and says, “Yes. There is an ancient town that is more than 100 kilometers from Yanjing. I haven’t been there yet!”

“Is it the famous town on TV?” Lang Ruoxian has the impression that it used to be an ordinary town, but it becomes well-known recently after a very popular variety show was shot there.

“Yes! It’s North Ancient Water Town.” Tang Duo takes out her phone and says, “What do you think? If you agree, I’ll book a hotel. We can find a B&B to live. I don’t know if we can find an available one. It’s said that booking a room on the weekend is very hard…”

Lang Ruoxian sees her talking for a long time. Obviously, she is very happy to play outside. After she regained memory, she had a confinement in the hospital. Now she hasn’t been out to play for nearly a year. She must be so bored.

“We’ll go to the seaside for a holiday in summer.” Lang Ruoxian suddenly says.

Tang Duo looks at him for a few seconds and then feels a little shy. She stutters, “I… I don’t really want to play outside. I just… I just…”

“Well, I know.” The man interrupts her, “It’s I who want to play outside. You just accompany me.”

Tang Duo takes a deep breath. His love words have been so silent and subtle…

“Okay!” She is not affected. Only a foolish woman can resist such a handsome man who always speaks sugared words.

Lang Ruoxian smiles with his eyes. Tang Duo feels his eyes are like peach blossoms they saw in the peach blossom forest when it snowed last year. Pieces of peach blossoms flew in the air, and finally became beautiful and charming red mud.

On the weekend, a family of four have breakfast on time and prepare for departure. Lulu, who always stays with twins, unexpectedly wants to go together. After Tang Duo calls the hostel and knows that she can take pets, Lulu barks happily and jumps into the car.

“It’s slack season now. So we can’t fish.” Tang Duo gives them a printed itinerary and says, “Do you have any other ideas?”

Lang Ruoxian is in charge of driving. Without looking at it, he says, “No.”

The little heads of Gungun and Wuyou are close together and they whisper for a long time. Finally Gungun raises his hand.

“Gungun, you can speak now.” Tang Duo points at him.

Gungun asks, “Mom, can you add a game of haunted house in the itinerary?”

“Is there such a game in the ancient town?” Tang Duo reads the introduction on the Internet again. She is sure it doesn’t mention the haunted house.

Wuyou hands over her phone and says, “It just opened last month. Some students in our class have been there.”

“Is it fun?” Tang Duo wants to know if it’s a horrible ghost house.

Wuyou obviously doesn’t get the point. She shakes her head and says, “I don’t think it’s interesting. But Gungun likes it. Let’s go there!”

So Tang Duo believes that the ghost house just can scare children and it’s not terrible at all.

“We can go there!” She adds it in her itinerary.

When they are halfway there, Tang Duo finds that a village next the road seems to build something.

“It’s Hot Spring Villa of Bai Family.” Lang Ruoxian casts a glance at it and says, “The land behind it belongs to us. We’ll build a horse farm when it’s finished.”

Tang Duo giggles. She turns to ask two children, “Do you start to take equestrian lessons in school?”

“We began to learn it in summer.” Gungun says proudly, “But Wuyou has already known how to ride, and horse is very obedient in front of her!”

Lulu whines twice next to them. Tang Duo thinks that the dog must say that Wuyou is like a wolf! She is so awful…

Lang Ruoxian adds, “When the horse farm is built, each of you can choose a pony by yourself.”

“Really?” Gungun’s eyes are bright. He says, “Tang Kai said he also had a pony. He scared me that he would ask his pony to kick me.”

Tang Duo hasn’t seen Yang Yanqing’s son since she woke up. But she knows that boy’s character according to Gungun’s words. That boy must be like his mother who fears the tough and takes advantage of other people’s power to bully the soft.

“Did he bully you?”

“He can’t defeat Wuyou!” Gungun says frankly, “Mom, have you forgotten? Ah! You don’t remember it. Last time…”

Gungun tells Tang Duo the story happened last time. After hearing, Tang Duo pats on Wuyou’s shoulder.

“Good daughter! Well done. In the future, whoever bullies you, you should beat him.” Tang Duo says and then winks, “But you should learn how to fight. You can find a place where no one stays and beat that guy after covering him with a sack.”

Wuyou nods, “Dad has taught us that.”

“…” Tang Duo looks at Lang Ruoxian with her strange eyes.

Lang Ruoxian curls the corner of his mouth and says, “What’s the matter? Is that wrong?”

“You are right…” Tang Duo thumbs up and says, “I forgot that you were really sly.”

It’s not a national holiday, and the weather is not very warm. So there are not many tourists in the ancient town. After entering the ancient town, they find the B&B booked by them according to the map. It’s a beautiful single courtyard. Behind it is a green river. You can see fish jumping up from the river.

“Can you sleep on your own?” Tang Duo asks. There is only one bedroom on each floor. Tang Duo lets two kids sleep on the second floor.

Gungun laughs, “Of course we can, Mom. We are big kids.”

After putting their luggage away, they go to a famous restaurant on the internet for lunch. As soon as they go there, Tang Duo sees Fang Diandian sitting by the window. She is talking and laughing with a boy.

Tang Duo is unbelievable. What a coincidence!

When Tang Duo is hesitant if she should call her, Fang Diandian has seen them and runs over excitedly.

“Sister Duo? Brother-in-law! Why are you here?”

Gungun says hello to her and then answers, “Aunt Diandian, we come to travel!”

“Gungun, Wuyou, Hello!” Fang Diandian greets two children and says, “It’s really a coincidence.”

Tang Duo sees that the man’s eyes are always on Fang Diandian with obvious love. Tang Duo feels sad for Tang Cao in her heart for few seconds.

“You two are…”

Fang Diandian hurriedly says, “We come here with our classmates to sketch from nature!”
