Chapter 268: Chapter 47_6
Li Zhiyuan sensed his lips touching the girl’s hair as she leaned her ear towards him.
"I tell you, there’s a group of people plotting against me, I’m very angry, I’ve already made arrangements, I’m sure to get rid of them underhandedly."
This secret message, of course, was heard by Liu Yumei.
She originally thought her granddaughter would be angry about the boy making her look like this, but to her surprise, after the boy finished speaking, her granddaughter’s face actually showed two clear dimples.
"Alii, I can’t see now, lead me back to the room."
Li Zhiyuan felt the girl lead him forward with one hand, while the other supported his arm.
In the past, it was always him leading the girl.
Once in the house, they slowly ascended the stairs, returned to his room, and sat on the bed.
Li Zhiyuan lay down, reached out to touch the quilt, but found nothing.
However, soon, the quilt was draped over his stomach, folded just the way he liked.
The girl left, and Li Zhiyuan heard the sound of the door opening.
After a while, the door opened again, the girl came back, then Li Zhiyuan felt a wet towel wiping his face.
After wiping for a while, she would fold it and continue, just as he had done for her in the past.
Turns out, she had been learning all along.
The door opened again, signaled by the footsteps of an adult.
"Xiao Yuan, don’t move, Auntie is going to apply medicine."
"Thank you, Aunt Liu."
The ointment was applied to the eyes and then secured with a band around the back of the head.
A comfortable sensation spread around his eye sockets, followed by a deep tiredness.
Struggling to stay awake first, Li Zhiyuan asked, "Aunt Liu, how long will my eyes take to heal?"
"Several weeks."
Li Zhiyuan: "..."
Aunt Liu laughed, "Hehe, one month, you’ll have some peace as well."
Li Zhiyuan also showed a smile on his face.
"You brat, how can you still manage to smile?"
"One month, just in time after summer vacation, won’t delay the start of school."
...
Li Sanjiang woke up in the day, learned that Xiao Yuan and Zhuangzhuang had already returned, he didn’t consider it important, instead grabbed his belongings and along with Run Sheng, walked several rounds along the riverbank.
Run Sheng was thinking just to waste time with Li Sanjiang, walking as a formality.
Then, he saw Li Sanjiang pulling out that compass.
The compass pointed due south; he followed Li Sanjiang underneath a bridge.
Underneath the bridge, Li Sanjiang unfastened his belt and took a leak.
Men often don’t like to look down while peeing but tend to look around as if scanning the horizon.
He noticed the memorial tablet under the bridge and exclaimed,
"Marquis Runsheng, is this Zhou Yong from your village?"
"Yes, grandpa."
"Tsk tsk, was he very rich, owning a bridge by himself?"
"Umm... I’m not very familiar with people in the village."
"You’re not familiar with your own villagers?"
"Grandpa, you know, my grandfather and I, doing this job, seldom socialize with the villagers."
"Shouldn’t be the case, aren’t you popular in the village, who doesn’t like a gambler like Shan Pao?"
"My grandpa mostly has no money in his pocket for gambling."
"Oh, right."
Run Sheng breathed a sigh of relief, feeling he had squeezed his wisdom dry just to gloss over the matter.
But what happened next caught Run Sheng off guard.
Li Sanjiang, holding the compass, walked south under the bridge, reached the river’s bend where there was no path left, then he followed the compass in the opposite direction, heading north.
And Zhou Yong’s house was just at the northern corner of the village.
Run Sheng just followed Li Sanjiang to the front of Zhou Yong’s house, completely dumbfounded.
His own grandfather always said that Grandpa Sanjiang was useless, is this what they call useless?
Last night Xiao Yuan had a hard time finding Zhou Yong’s house, and here Grandpa Sanjiang found it just by peeing!
"Hahaha, hello there!"
Li Sanjiang raised his hand and waved to the mother and daughter sitting on the dam.
Because Run Sheng, a local, was standing next to him, he could see the mother and daughter.
"Grandpa, let’s not go forward."
Run Sheng decided that if Li Sanjiang continued forward, he would carry him away if necessary.
"No need, no need, it’s just their mother and daughter at home. What’s the point, let’s not disturb them."
As there were only ladies at home, it wasn’t appropriate for him, a grown man, to get too close.
But in Run Sheng’s ears, another interpretation lingered, did Grandpa Sanjiang know instantly that Zhou Yong wasn’t at home?
Lingering until the afternoon, Li Sanjiang returned to Mr. Shan’s house.
The village chief was also in the courtyard, inquiring about the progress. Li Sanjiang patted his chest, saying not to hurry, he was close to finding it.
After the village chief left, there was still plenty of strong liquor from the night before, and the village chief had also brought some snacks.
The two old men sat down and continued drinking.
As they drank and became merry,
As it approached night, Li Sanjiang remembered his purpose of coming here, intending to get up and wander around while it was still light.
Mr. Shan stopped him, urging him to continue drinking together, and then prompted Run Sheng to go out for a walk.
Run Sheng acknowledged, grabbed his belongings, and stepped out as Xiao Yuan had instructed him to check day and night.
He ran to the front of Zhou Yong’s dam.
This time,
The mother and daughter on the dam did not appear again.
...
At night.
An adult man, with a boy sitting on his shoulders, was walking along the riverbank.
At a glance, they resembled a father and son out for an evening stroll.
But their conversation was shocking, as the adult man was calling the boy on his neck... "Dad."
