After thinking about these things, Ning Yan was startled by the sudden appearance of someone's head, after seeing who was coming over, she asked: "I'm not sparring, how did you come over?"

"I missed my mother."

With just one sentence, Ning Yan almost wanted to cry.

He had been busy these past few days with his own matters, and had even handed over the matter of kitchen to the Wu Yuvniang. It was not like this little fellow had not seen her in a long time.

"Then, when mother sends you to Mr Xue's place, what if Zhou Yi does not need to send you?"

"To the Mr Xue? Why did Uncle Zhou send me there at such a close distance …"

"…" Ning Yan did not know how to reply.

Fortunately, Ning'er did not think that she had to come up with an answer. The child changed the topic and asked, "Did that person come to our house again?"

That person? With the addition of an extra Mrs. Xu, it was only natural that Ning Yan could guess who Ning Zu was referring to.

If Mrs. Xu had a slightly better heart, she would be happy to put on an act in front of her children, and act filial.

However, if Mrs. Xu did not give her the chance, she would rather not see her mother's filial piety anymore.

Ning Yan reached out her hand to stroke Ning's head, making a decision. Mr Xue's side had really big rules. They said that they would be able to rest for a day in less than seven days.

However, the child had been gone for many days without a single rest. Today's rest was nothing.

Ah Mu sat in front of the door with Ma Zha in her hand, waiting for more than enough time to come.

Telling Ning TIu that he drank milk yesterday, but waiting for him at the left and right, Wu Baoshi saw that he did not drink milk even after noon.

Thus, he did what a child would do, complained, and walked into the inner courtyard. He found the Mr Xue and told him about how Ning Yu didn't have any classes at all.

Mr Xue waved his hand and did not pay much attention.

Even though that little brat Ning Tian was smart, he could still endure hardships. He wouldn't suddenly stop coming. With Zhou Yi that brave man following them, they would not meet any danger.

Therefore, coming here must have been Ning Yan's idea.

Raising his head to look at the sky, Mr Xue felt that perhaps, the person who had come to request for leave was already on his way.

Ning Yan, this person, was very strange. Compared to the people in the village, she seemed to be no different from someone who could earn money.

But from a different perspective, this person seemed out of place in this era.

Thinking about that, Mr Xue shook his head. He must be old. Otherwise, why would he have such a strange thought?

Continuing on with the unfinished business under his hands, the sound of footsteps suddenly echoed.

Pushing the door open and seeing Zhou Yi standing in the courtyard, Mr Xue naturally knew that this person was here to request for leave.

"..."

"..."

Ning Yan led his brown horse and sat on it, her small hands grabbing onto the fur on the brown horse's back.

The two of them headed up the mountain.

The back of the mountain in autumn was much cooler.

Walking on the mountain, Ning Yan released the reins and reported the peace on the horse's back.

Commanding more than enough to dig traps and hit rabbits.

He unknowingly arrived at a cave.

The cave looked familiar.

Upon entering, one could see several pieces of mildewed sword brocade on the ground.

"Mother, wasn't this the cave where we temporarily took shelter when we picked up Lu Da?"

"It's not …" Ning Yan nodded, it was indeed here.

I wonder how that man is doing now …

It was strange, Lu Hanzhang was so ugly, with a full beard, they could be considered to have interacted a lot with each other. The only one who had a more in-depth conversation was that Lu Hanzhang wanted to take her as a concubine, and they had even broken off their conversation.

It was already like this, why did he still think of that person from time to time?

Was he also the rumored trembling fool?

"Mother, when will Lu Da return? I miss him."

"Is Lu Da well?" Ning Yan asked.

"It's alright, Lu Da will fly me, hunt birds for me, and even let me sit on his shoulder."

"…" That person was really nice to her child.

If one day you need to find a father for your child, do as your child said.

But can you find it?

Ning Yan laughed.

He left the cave with more than Ning and picked a few fruits from the tree before taking the outer coat and wrapping them up.

"I'll make canned food for you when we get back."

"Canned food?" When she heard about it for the first time, her eyes lit up.

As long as it was food, as long as it was an unfamiliar name, then it would be made into delicious food by his mother's mouth.

"Yes, cans." Ning Yan carried the bag on her back and climbed onto the brown horse with much difficulty.

Ning Hai was still somewhat short. Even after he climbed for quite a while, he was still unable to climb onto the horse's back. On the other hand, he was sweating profusely.

In the end, the brown horse curled its legs and kneeled on the ground before climbing up.

Seeing that the child was seated steadily, Ning Yan opened her mouth and said, "Let's go."

The brown horse seemed to understand Ning Yan's words, it followed behind him and went down the mountain.

Ning Yan first tied the horse into the shed, added some straw and beans into the food trough, and then prepared some water. She patted the horse's neck and walked into the courtyard.

Mrs. Xu sat on the Little Horse and basked in the sunlight. She saw Ning Yan shrink her neck.

"…" Ning Yan turned and walked out.

After asking Wu Yuvniang to fill a bowl of rice and pull some dishes out from within, Ning Yan carried them to the backyard.

There was no longer any sign of the Mrs. Xu in the courtyard.

Looking at the tightly shut door, Ning Yan shook her head. She didn't know what the Mrs. Xu was thinking, and logically, the person looking for her at night was' Ning Zhaoyang ', so he shouldn't be afraid of a living person.

What a weird thought.

Knocking on the door, Ning Yan shouted: "Time to eat."

"You. In the doorway. "

"…" Alright, Ning Yan placed the tableware in front of the door and hid it.

After a long while, Mrs. Xu finally opened the door and picked up the bowl of Red Braised Meat from the floor. As she looked at the bowl of Red Braised Meat in her hands, tears instantly flowed down her face, "Ning Zhaoyang, you are dead man. Tell me, did your head maid put rat poison in her flesh? "

"The rat poison must be poisonous." As the Mrs. Xu spoke, panic flashed across her face.

He carried the bowl around the cellar and under the tree. He took the shovel from the yard and dug a hole under the tree. He buried the meat in the hole, leaving only white rice in the bowl.

When he saw the rice, the Mrs. Xu cried again. He squatted on the ground and cursed a few times, then used his chopsticks to pluck the rice into his stomach, "I won't be poisoned to death. I want to live, I want to see the top scholar for my son."

"…" Do you have some misunderstanding about the top scholar?

Ning Yan watched as Mrs. Xu walked back into her room and closed the door. In the end, she felt that the Mrs. Xu seemed to have the tendency of going crazy … This was embarrassing. The mere act of putting on a show was enough to send a person into a frenzy.

Her mood suddenly turned heavy. Ning Yan returned to the living room and looked at the rice noodles on the table with no appetite.

"Mom, let's eat." After playing around for an entire afternoon, she was still in high spirits. Seeing Ning Yan sitting there in a daze, she shouted and placed a piece of fat into Ning Yan's bowl.

He truly was an age filled with vitality.
