Chapter 394: Chapter 394 - 394 Go to Hu Family Village

394 Go to Hu Family Village

Ever since Old man Wang chatted with Ouyang Changjing once, Ouyang Changjing had sent out many people that night.

He had to spend time verifying what Old man Wang had said.

“Young Master, we can’t delay here for too long.” The next day, Ouyang Pei heard that they were not going to look for the Wang Family first and was immediately a little anxious.

He had the personality of a general to begin with. He was particular about being fast, accurate, and ruthless. How could he withstand such dilly-dallying now?

“After the talk last night, I thought about it for a while. Regardless of whether that child is Ruan Ruan’s child or not, even if she is, we can’t make too many decisions for her.”

Ouyang Changjing’s usually gentle expression became solemn.

Back then, his younger sister’s departure had caused a huge shock to the entire Ouyang Family.

Was it really because his little sister was naughty?

For nine years, she did not take a single step into the capital of West Wind Nation.

Even if they pretended to be at peace with it and convinced themselves that their little sister was reluctant to go home because of the beautiful scenery outside…

Nine years was too long.

So much so that his little sister already had a child outside.

Ouyang Pei: “Even so, we should bring the child back to West Wind Nation. After all, that’s her hometown. What’s the point of thinking about other countries?”

Ouyang Changjing: “The child might not think so.”

The two of them argued endlessly. On the other hand, Ye Yuncang leisurely finished his tea and placed the teacup on the table, making a sound.

Both of them looked at Ye Yuncang.

Ye Yuncang: “Didn’t you notice a problem?”

Ouyang Pei and Ouyang Changjing said in unison, “What?”

“That child looks to be about three to four years old. Ruan Ruan also looked like this around that age.” Ye Yuncang gestured at the two of them with her hand. “However, the information we found previously only said that the child was born on the 15th of August. Have you thought carefully about which year it is?”

As soon as these words were spoken, the expressions of the two of them changed slightly.

The royal family of the West Wind Kingdom had an obvious characteristic, especially when it came to women.

That was, at every age, the appearances they displayed were different.

From one to three years old, they had a certain look. From three to seven years old, they had another look. After seven years old, the changes in their appearance would not be as big as before, but there would still be obvious changes.

After the age of 15, there would be no difference from a normal person’s appearance.

The child in front of him looked to be three to seven years old.

It was also very magical. When Ruan Ruan was at that age range, she looked exactly like this.

Ouyang Pei: “You mean to say that this child is not as old as she looks?”

“The child’s age doesn’t affect us much, but it has a huge impact on investigating Ruan Ruan’s traces,” Ye Yuncang said. “Now, you’ve all started investigating three and a half years ago. But if the child isn’t three and a half years old, you won’t be able to find the evidence you want even if you investigate the entire world. Perhaps you’ll only alert the enemy and lose the clues in the end.”

These words sounded a little ridiculous, but on careful thought, they were not necessarily wrong.

Ouyang Changjing: “Let’s not ask the Wang Family for the child first. We’ll only get along with that child and get someone to test her bone age. We’ll know how old that child is at that time.”

Because some children were born malnourished, their bone age might be different from their actual age. However, exquisite martial arts practitioners were especially sensitive to bones. If they knew medicine, their judgment would be even more accurate.

They could sense the child’s true age through all the appearances.

“It’s easier to guess the child’s bone age before the age of seven. On the other hand, it’s not so easy to figure out the age of a person when they reach adulthood.” Ouyang Pei pondered for a moment and thought of a good idea. “Didn’t the Wang Family say that we didn’t have much feelings for the child previously? Then let’s take advantage of this spring to bring the Wang Family and Ah Yu out to play. We can explore more on the way.”

Ouyang Changjing: “Do you know how to find out the true bone age?”

Ouyang Pei said honestly, “I can roughly figure it out. But I can’t make any guarantees on the precision.”

“Let my Senior Brother follow you.” Ye Yuncang said the words Senior Brother especially smoothly. “He also knows how to prescribe medicine for people in Puji Temple. He’s a medicinal monk.”

At the same time, he was a warrior monk and a part-time abbot.

Other than not knowing much about Buddhism, Yun Zhi knew everything else.

Ouyang Pei thought of the other party’s unfathomable martial technique and could not help but shiver.

They had thought it through very well. However, they did not expect to be rejected by the Wang Family after telling them this suggestion.

“Go to Feng’an Village to look at peach blossoms?” Old Madam Wang smiled. “Speaking of peach blossoms, why don’t you go to our Hu Family Village to take a look? The peach blossoms are blooming at the right time now, and the mountains are breezy and cool. I think they can still bloom for seven to eight days more. Why don’t you come to our village to take a walk?”

Little Ah Yu also said, “That’s right, that’s right. I don’t want to go to other villages to look at peach blossoms. The peach blossoms in our village are very beautiful. Do you see the peach tree in front of the bun shop? And the few peach trees in our courtyard are all very beautiful. They were all transported from the village!”

This year’s farming break had yet to arrive. However, the sugarcane workshop in the village had started running, and the school in the village needed attention.

Old Madam Wang planned to take a look personally. Little Ah Yu had not returned to the village for a long time and wanted to follow Old Madam Wang back.

Of course, she did not want to go to other villages to look at peach blossoms.

In her portable space, the elf had even planted a few peach trees. Every night, when Little Ah Yu went in, she could see peach blossoms all over the trees. They were extremely beautiful.

Little Ah Yu no longer cared about the peach blossom trees outside.

“To your Hu Family Village?”

“That’s right, that’s right. Our village still has a general’s temple. Now, there are also people from other villages who go to pay their respects to the general. Every ten days, there will be a small temple fair in the village. It’s very fun.”

After Village Chief Hu discussed with the elders and villagers in the village, they decided to build Hu Family Village into a suitable village for tourism. They would imitate Feng’an Village, which used peach blossoms to attract outsiders.

If they could attract scholars to go, the village would definitely become more famous, and the villagers’ profits would naturally rise.

Everyone had signed a confidentiality agreement. They would not mention a word that they should not say to outsiders.

“Uncle, our village is really good. Can you all go and take a look?”

Ouyang Changjing looked at Little Ah Yu’s expectant gaze and wanted to refuse, but he nodded.

...

“Okay.”

Ouyang Changjing’s secret guards were originally carrying out a hidden mission when they were suddenly patted on the shoulder.

Chi Tu handed over a porcelain bottle.

The secret guard: “?”

“Hu Family Village is a good place, and there are many hiding places,” Chi Tu said expressionlessly. “It’s just that there are a lot of mosquitoes. It hurts when they bite.” n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

The secret guard: “…Thank you.”

He reached out to take the porcelain bottle, but the other party held it tightly and did not let go.

The secret guard: “?”

Chi Tu: “It’s a special secret recipe. Ten taels.”

The secret guard: “…”

Chi Tu said, “We have houses in the village. They’re very hidden and I guarantee that we won’t delay each other’s missions. There’s also a newly built secret passage. If you want to move in, 20 taels per person for a day.”

...

The secret guard: “!!!”

Tell me, did you become unscrupulous merchants?
