The village chief’s house of Chongming Village is located in a corner west of the village, close to the mountain.

"I'm going back to have a meal!"

After taking the two Scottish people to the village chief's house, Chong Xiaoyu turned around and was about to leave. She seemed to remember something after just two steps. She turned around and shouted loudly, "Thank you, big brother for the fruits, cakes, candied haws, and... what kind of cakes!"

Scotland smiled at her, waved his hand, turned around and just about to walk up and knock on the door, but suddenly remembered something, turned around and looked behind him... Guan Tianshui was still following him.

"I thought you had forgotten me completely when you saw that little girl." Guan Tianshui said calmly, unable to hear any emotion in either expression or tone.

Scotland smiled awkwardly and said, "Sorry."

Guan Tianshui didn't say anything, but turned his head and looked at the village chief's house. It was an ordinary wooden house, which was no different from other houses in the village.

Scotland stepped forward and knocked on the door, and a response came from inside quickly. Then a middle-aged uncle opened the door, looked at the two Scotlands with confusion, and asked, "You are..."

"We are students of Lukia College, and we accidentally fell here and wanted to seek some help." Scotland said truthfully.

"Lucia Academy...oh! It's the academy next to Qingxiang City, right? I know where you guys come in." After saying that, the middle-aged man turned around and returned to the house.

Scotland and Guan Tianshui looked at each other, and then they walked in together.

The decoration inside the house is simple and unpretentious, and there are basically all the furniture that should be available.

The middle-aged man was sitting at the table with a long handful of hay on it and a straw hat being woven next to it, which had already taken shape. It seemed that before Scotland came, the middle-aged man was weaving straw hats inside the house.

And beside the straw hat, a strange ladybug was lying there motionless.

The ladybug is as big as an adult's head, and its whole body is black without any luster. There is a white pattern on its back. The pattern is very strange. From a distance, it looks like an eye growing on it.

"Tell me, how do you help you?" asked the middle-aged man.

"We want to stay for one night. Then ask if there are any contact tools. If there are, we want to borrow them. Of course, we will pay for stays and contact tools." Scotland said.

"It's okay to stay there, there is an empty room in the backyard. The contact tools are powerless. This is just a small village and there is no use of such things." Speaking of this, the middle-aged man paused, looked at the ladybug on the table, smiled, and then said in an indifferent tone, "Don't mention rewards or something, it's not a big deal."

"Then I thank you uncle first." Scotland thanked him first and asked again; "I wonder if there is any transportation here to reach Qingxiang City?"

The middle-aged man was silent for a while, as if he was thinking about something, and then he said, "There are transportation tools, but for some reasons, you cannot lend them out. If you want to go to Qingxiang City, you can wait until the day after tomorrow to follow our caravan... Don't worry, soon, you can reach Qingxiang City in just two or three days."

Scotland calculated the time, and there were seven days left to leave school. It only took five days to go to the academy to follow the convoy... There were two days left to familiarize themselves with the academy's environment. He agreed immediately, "Then I have to bother my uncle for two more days."

"Where, I'll take you to the room and take a look."

After saying that, the middle-aged man brought Scottish and Guan Tianshui to the backyard.

All the houses in the backyard are in a courtyard structure. The hall just now is located in the north, and there are houses in the other three directions. There is a willow tree planted in the center of the yard, and there are stone tables and stone benches under the willow tree.

"The kitchen and a cottage to the east, my wife, children and old father all live in the south, and the guest room to the west." The middle-aged man introduced while walking.

At this moment, a little boy about seven or eight years old ran out of the kitchen, with a bare head in his arms, looking particularly interesting. He ran to the middle-aged man and looked at the two of Scotlands intermittently and asked, "Dad...who are they...?"

"They are guests invited by their father from Qingxiang City. They went to tell their mother that they would cook two more dishes tonight." The middle-aged man touched the little boy's head and said.

"Oh." The little boy agreed. Just as he was about to run back to the kitchen, he remembered his purpose and quickly said, "Mom... let Dad... go over."

"Tell her, I'll go there right away."

After hearing the middle-aged man's reply, the little boy ran back to the kitchen to pass the message. The middle-aged man turned around and looked at the two of Scotlands and smiled awkwardly. Just when he was about to speak, Scotland said first; "Uncle, go and do your business first, let's take a walk."

"Well... Then you can take a walk around. The room to the west is where you live tonight. You can go and take a look first. I have something to tell me." After that, the middle-aged man walked towards the kitchen, leaving Scotland and Guan Tianshui standing in the yard.

"Then... let's go and see the room first?" Scotland asked as he looked at Guan Tianshui.

Guan Tianshui nodded expressionlessly.

The houses on the west side were smaller than the other three houses. Scotland suddenly had a bad guess. He pushed open the door and took a look... Sure enough, there was only one room in the whole house, and there was only one bed in the room, and everything else was available.

The two of them stood in the room, an awkward atmosphere filled the air, and the air seemed to be about to condense.

"Or... I'll borrow another room from the uncle?" Scotland asked.

However, despite asking this, he knew in his heart... the uncle's house might not have so many rooms. Although the other houses looked bigger, there were kitchens and cottages on the east, so naturally they could not live in. There was an old man living in the uncle's family and a man living in the south, so there was probably no extra room.

When asked this, Scotland was actually ready to sleep in the hall or backyard.

Guan Tianshui was silent for a while, then sighed and said, "Forget it, there should be no room."

Obviously, what Scotland thought of, Guan Tianshui thought of, too.

"Then..." Scotland couldn't say the second half of the sentence.

Do you have to sleep together like last night?

Guan Tianshui's red clouds flashed, then looked at Scotland expressionlessly, and pointed at the ground with a finger...
