Chapter 349 A Family of Four And Their DogTang Ming hesitates again. Huo Liyun stares at him and smiles.
âTang 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?â
âLetâs talk about the company.â Huo Liyunâs eyes become cold. She says, âYou know the companyâs situation during these years. Without Bai Susu and the Tang Yu brothers, the company wonât exist after you retire. Do you want to give all these to that b***h and her children? Bah! Youâre dreaming!â
âWhat are you talking about?â Tang Ming is a little annoyed. He says, âI always treat the Tang Yu brothers as my own sons. How can I treat them badly?â
Huo Liyun sneers, âI donât believe you. Do you think I only learn how to swear from Tai Island? Iâm dying. But you still want a new wife. Do you want to share my end?â
âHow irrational you are!â Tang Ming stands up and asks, âDo you want to turn against me now?â
âIâm dying and have no time to coax you.â The skin on Huo Liyunâs face is shaking and seems to fall down. Tang Ming canât help taking a few steps back. Then he grits his teeth and finally promises.
âOkay, I will make a will as you wish!â
Lang Ruoxian knows that Tang Ming calls a lawyer. Although he doesnât know what Tang Ming is going to do, itâs not hard for him to guess.
âItâs convenient for us.â He tells Bai Susu, âWe donât need to do anything. They will have internal problems.â
Bai Susuâs eyes flash. She says, âWe can help themâ¦â
âMom, Hua Family will be more willing to help them.â Lang Ruoxian curls the corner of his mouth and says, âOnce they know that Hua Yatingâs kid is not the only heir, they will take actions.â
Tang Duo secretly sends a message to Hua Zhong. After talking aimlessly for a short time, she asks Hua Zhong inadvertently.
âI donât know what kind of disease my eldest aunt gets. She is dying.â
Hua Zhong replies, âI heard that she seemed to be bewitched. Yating will return home in a few days. Weâll go to visit her.â
Tang Duo says, âBut what I heard is different from you. Itâs said that she is sick because Eldest Uncle makes her angry.â
ââ¦She is so angry that she gets sick?â
âRight! It seems that heâs got a mistress.â
Hua Zhong is speechless.
Tang Duo is cheering in her heart. When she turns her head, she sees Lang Ruoxian looking at her.
âI didnât do anything!â She immediately says, âI just want to inform the Hua Family with the best of intentions.â
Lang Ruoxian doesnât make a sound. He comes up to her and sits down. Then he says, âGungunâs birthday is coming. He said he wanted us to travel this year.â
âHis birthday is in March. He doesnât have a holiday at that time.â Tang Duo is stunned and says, âBesides, we need to take care of twinsâ¦â
âSo the place he chose is near Yanjing. We can go there on weekends.â Lang Ruoxian asks her, âCan we let Mom and Grandma to take care of twins for two days?â
âItâs OKâ¦â Tang Duo still feels it strange and asks, âBut why does he want to have a trip? His school just took them to northern Europe at Christmas.â
Lang Ruoxian says calmly, âMaybe he is jealous.â
âJealous? Who is he jealous of?â Tang Duo is shocked.
âAfter all, heâs only 8 years old. He used to be the only child in our family. Now he suddenly has younger siblings. Everyoneâs attention has been turned away from him, which may make him uncomfortable.â
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!
âWuyou is more like an adult than Tang Cao.â Lang Ruoxian seems to know how she thinks. He says, âI think itâs better to take him out, otherwise itâll be more troublesome in case that he has psychological shadow.â
Tang Duo of course should agree with him. Bai Susu is very happy when she hears they will have a trip.
âGo to have a trip! Why not play more days? Donât 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.â
Tang Duo doesnât know what to say.
âDad, you should thank me this time.â Gungun is bargaining with Lang Ruoxian where Tang Duo canât see.
Lang Ruoxian looks down at the little boy and asks, âWhat do you want?â
âYou should take me to the place where Wuyou will receive training this summer.â Gungun requests.
âI also want to take you there. But you are too weak. The drillmaster doesnât want to teach you.â
Gungun complains, ââ¦Dad, you will traumatize children if you knock their confidence like that.â
âYou wonât be traumatized.â Lang Ruoxian continues to knock his sonâs confidence, âYour brainâs capacity is small. So you will forget that immediately.â
âIâll tell Mom that you threaten me to have a trip on my birthday!â Gungun decides to expose his father.
Lang Ruoxian says, âThen I will send Wuyou to study abroad and make you have a long-distance love.â
âDad is the devil!â 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.
âWhat happened to my son?â
âItâs OK. He wants to take Lulu for a walk.â Lang Ruoxian asks a question to shift her attention, âHave you decided where to go?â
Tang Duo immediately cheers up and says, âYes. There is an ancient town that is more than 100 kilometers from Yanjing. I havenât been there yet!â
âIs it the famous town on TV?â 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.
âYes! Itâs North Ancient Water Town.â Tang Duo takes out her phone and says, âWhat do you think? If you agree, Iâll book a hotel. We can find a B&B to live. I donât know if we can find an available one. Itâs said that booking a room on the weekend is very hardâ¦â
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 hasnât been out to play for nearly a year. She must be so bored.
âWeâll go to the seaside for a holiday in summer.â Lang Ruoxian suddenly says.
Tang Duo looks at him for a few seconds and then feels a little shy. She stutters, âI⦠I donât really want to play outside. I just⦠I justâ¦â
âWell, I know.â The man interrupts her, âItâs I who want to play outside. You just accompany me.â
Tang Duo takes a deep breath. His love words have been so silent and subtleâ¦
âOkay!â 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.
âItâs slack season now. So we canât fish.â Tang Duo gives them a printed itinerary and says, âDo you have any other ideas?â
Lang Ruoxian is in charge of driving. Without looking at it, he says, âNo.â
The little heads of Gungun and Wuyou are close together and they whisper for a long time. Finally Gungun raises his hand.
âGungun, you can speak now.â Tang Duo points at him.
Gungun asks, âMom, can you add a game of haunted house in the itinerary?â
âIs there such a game in the ancient town?â Tang Duo reads the introduction on the Internet again. She is sure it doesnât mention the haunted house.
Wuyou hands over her phone and says, âIt just opened last month. Some students in our class have been there.â
âIs it fun?â Tang Duo wants to know if itâs a horrible ghost house.
Wuyou obviously doesnât get the point. She shakes her head and says, âI donât think itâs interesting. But Gungun likes it. Letâs go there!â
So Tang Duo believes that the ghost house just can scare children and itâs not terrible at all.
âWe can go there!â She adds it in her itinerary.
When they are halfway there, Tang Duo finds that a village next the road seems to build something.
âItâs Hot Spring Villa of Bai Family.â Lang Ruoxian casts a glance at it and says, âThe land behind it belongs to us. Weâll build a horse farm when itâs finished.â
Tang Duo giggles. She turns to ask two children, âDo you start to take equestrian lessons in school?â
âWe began to learn it in summer.â Gungun says proudly, âBut Wuyou has already known how to ride, and horse is very obedient in front of her!â
Lulu whines twice next to them. Tang Duo thinks that the dog must say that Wuyou is like a wolf! She is so awfulâ¦
Lang Ruoxian adds, âWhen the horse farm is built, each of you can choose a pony by yourself.â
âReally?â Gungunâs eyes are bright. He says, âTang Kai said he also had a pony. He scared me that he would ask his pony to kick me.â
Tang Duo hasnât seen Yang Yanqingâs son since she woke up. But she knows that boyâs character according to Gungunâs words. That boy must be like his mother who fears the tough and takes advantage of other peopleâs power to bully the soft.
âDid he bully you?â
âHe canât defeat Wuyou!â Gungun says frankly, âMom, have you forgotten? Ah! You donât remember it. Last timeâ¦â
Gungun tells Tang Duo the story happened last time. After hearing, Tang Duo pats on Wuyouâs shoulder.
âGood daughter! Well done. In the future, whoever bullies you, you should beat him.â Tang Duo says and then winks, âBut 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.â
Wuyou nods, âDad has taught us that.â
ââ¦â Tang Duo looks at Lang Ruoxian with her strange eyes.
Lang Ruoxian curls the corner of his mouth and says, âWhatâs the matter? Is that wrong?â
âYou are rightâ¦â Tang Duo thumbs up and says, âI forgot that you were really sly.â
Itâs 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. Itâs a beautiful single courtyard. Behind it is a green river. You can see fish jumping up from the river.
âCan you sleep on your own?â Tang Duo asks. There is only one bedroom on each floor. Tang Duo lets two kids sleep on the second floor.
Gungun laughs, âOf course we can, Mom. We are big kids.â
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.
âSister Duo? Brother-in-law! Why are you here?â
Gungun says hello to her and then answers, âAunt Diandian, we come to travel!â
âGungun, Wuyou, Hello!â Fang Diandian greets two children and says, âItâs really a coincidence.â
Tang Duo sees that the manâs eyes are always on Fang Diandian with obvious love. Tang Duo feels sad for Tang Cao in her heart for few seconds.
âYou two areâ¦â
Fang Diandian hurriedly says, âWe come here with our classmates to sketch from nature!â
