Chapter 175 - 175 175 Relying on a Mountain

?Chapter 175: Chapter 175: Relying on a Mountain Chapter 175: Chapter 175: Relying on a Mountain Zheng Tan stood on a fence post in the courtyard, boredly yawning before looking down at the earthworm crawling on the ground.

Inside the small tile-roofed house, the old lady and Ermao were recounting the experiences of the past years as well as some past events. Zheng Tan had no interest in listening to their stories, so he simply came out for some fresh air.

In fact, without needing Ermao to say anything, the old lady had already guessed the blood relation between her and Ermao. Ermao couldn’t deny it even if he wanted to. According to their relationship, Ermao should call the old lady great aunt. Zheng Tan heard from the villagers that the old lady had come to this village over forty years ago when she was already forty years old, which meant she would be almost ninety in two more years.

After yawning about a dozen times, the wooden gate squeaked open. Ermao came out from inside.

From the expression on Ermao’s face, it seemed like the conversation went quite well. There wasn’t any of the crappy look from when the old lady had toyed with him before.

“Let’s go,” Ermao beckoned to Zheng Tan, signaling that it was time to leave.

Zheng Tan glanced over at the small tile-roofed house and then at Ermao. Was that it after recognizing the kinship?

It wasn’t.

It wasn’t convenient for Ermao to take the old lady with him since he hadn’t driven here, and even if he had, the roads weren’t easy to navigate. He planned to go back first, discuss with his family, and then come back to pick up the great aunt—it wasn’t a small matter after all.

Since Ermao had put his phone on silent before arriving, it was only on the minibus ride towards Gaiyang’s city center that he noticed the nineteen missed calls, all from the same number, belonging to Wang Bin. Ermao glanced at it but didn’t return the call.

Zheng Tan just heard Ermao sighing all the way. He knew that this time, Ermao couldn’t avoid having a talk with his family.
