Compared to the mountains in Black Water Village, the view here was obviously wider, and even the land was better.
“Is this near Landlord Wang’s house?” Ye Muyu asked.
“Not bad.” Chu Heng slowed down and pointed at the nearby fields.
“I’m afraid there are more than 6,000 sq feet of land, and they are all fertile fields. It seems that Landlord Wang is quite good. I’m afraid that he will buy all the nearby fields as long as he has the opportunity, right?”
“Fortunately, he only bought land.” Ye Muyu did not want the other party to take advantage of her by selling the wood ears.
“Let’s go meet Landlord Wang.” As soon as Chu Heng finished speaking, the horse galloped into the distance. After a while, they saw a decent house on the flat ground.
From afar, the house had white walls and black tiles. It looked much more imposing than an ordinary farmer’s earthen wall house. Even the walls looked extraordinary.
The horse stopped in front of the Wang family’s courtyard.
Chu Heng got off the horse and helped Ye Muyu down.
Ye Muyu did not feel any discomfort at first, but when Chu Heng carried her down, she instantly felt a slight pain in her legs.
She frowned slightly. It seemed that she still lacked training.
However, the next time she rode a horse, she had to make good kneepads, especially in the pants on both sides of her thighs. She had to put an extra piece of soft cotton cloth.
“Are you feeling uncomfortable?” Chu Heng saw her frown and immediately guessed it.
Ye Muyu stood up straight and made himself look as if nothing had happened. “It’s nothing. I’m just not used to it. I haven’t ridden a horse before and I’m not prepared.”
As she spoke, she told him all the equipment she wanted to make for riding a horse when she got home. Chu Heng could not help but laugh when he saw her regretful look.
“Alright, let’s go back and make it. If Ah Yu doesn’t mind, I’ll help make it too.”
“You’re a man, so why should you do needlework? Why don’t you help me raise a horse that’s gentle and suitable for me to ride?” Ye Muyu’s ears turned red and she took a step back. She was a little shy when he approached her and spoke to her.
“I’ll listen to Ah Yu.” Chu Heng smiled happily.
As the two of them spoke, there was finally some movement in the Wang family. They heard the sound of hooves and a servant opened the door. When he saw the two of them, the gatekeeper hesitated.” Who are you?”
“Chu Heng, Xiang Zhifu is my uncle. Just report to your master.” Chu Heng directly left his name.
The gatekeeper had obviously heard about it. After all, in the past few days, almost everyone in the Wang family’s residence knew that their master wanted to marry the little girl of the Xiang family as his second wife.
When the gatekeeper heard this, he recalled the old master’s rage two hours ago and hurriedly closed the door with a bang.
“Do you think he will report it to Master Wang?” Ye Muyu did not mind the other party’s attitude. After all, Chu Heng and she didn’t come with good intentions, so it was normal for the other party to be unhappy.
“He will,” Chu Heng said concisely.
Ye Muyu thought about it and agreed. “Oh right, is this Wang family related to the Wang family in the county?”
“Yes.”
“Hmm?” Ye Muyu did not expect to hear an affirmative answer and looked at him in surprise.
“Do you remember?” Chu Heng patted her head and asked, “After the Wang family was in trouble, the men were beheaded and the women were banished. However, there were some who escaped.”
“You mean the Eldest Young Master of the Wang family!” Ye Muyu’s eyes lit up. She suddenly remembered this detail. She rubbed her chin and said, “I remember that the Eldest Young Master of the Wang family went out to do business. I heard that he would go out for one or two months every time.”
