Chapter 889: Chapter 889

Because of the singing, everyone had a rather pleasant afternoon, completely forgetting that they were being held captive by the villagers.

Dinner was relatively quiet; the stranger was too busy filling his stomach to make any noise.

After dinner, everyone returned to their own rooms to rest.

Little Shitou pulled his mother back to their room, and as soon as they got in, he happily said, "Mom, Auntie is amazing, she knows so many songs and can even do magic tricks."

"Yes, Auntie is very capable." Shitou’s mother sat there, clearly feeling that her son was particularly happy today.

"Mom, I learned several songs from Auntie too. She was right, singing can make people feel better. Let me sing for you and you’ll feel better too."

Little Shitou was eager to sing what he had learned to his mother, hoping she would feel as happy as he did because of the music.

"Okay, go ahead and sing, Mom will listen." Shitou’s mother smiled faintly, though her heart felt quite heavy.

"Twinkle, twinkle, little star, how I wonder what you are, up above the world so high, like a diamond in the sky..."

Shitou’s mother sat there, quietly listening to her son’s singing, his clear voice and beautiful melody were truly pleasant to hear.

After a while, Little Shitou showed off several more songs he learned to his mother, and after he finished, he asked, "Mom, was it nice?"

"Yes, it was nice." The rıghtful source is 𝔫𝔬𝔳𝔢𝔩·𝕗𝕚𝕣𝕖·𝘯𝘦𝘵

"Did it make you feel a bit better?"

"Mom, I’ll sing for you every day from now on, so you can be happy every day."

This is how a child’s world works; he believes this will make his mom happy every day.

Listening to her son’s thoughtful words, Shitou’s mother felt a bit selfish. She knew inside that her son hoped to leave the village, truly sensing a difference in him, and once again her heart wavered.

"Mom, Auntie also told me many stories about the outside world. Let me tell them to you..." Little Shitou then recounted the things he had heard to his mother, his eyes sparkling like a true orator.

The mother and son fell sweetly asleep in Little Shitou’s storytelling.

At this moment, Yang Ming and Xiaoxiao were not asleep. Lying on the kang, Yang Ming suddenly spoke up, "Honey, tonight I want to explore Anding Village."

"Explore at night?" Xiaoxiao was a bit worried.

"Yes, once everyone is asleep, I’ll go out and take a look, to understand the situation of this village and make it easier for us to escape tomorrow night." Yang Ming shared his thoughts with his wife.

Although Yang Ming’s idea was good, scouting around would indeed make their escape easier, Xiaoxiao was still very worried about unexpected events, "Honey, don’t go. If you get caught, we won’t have another chance. Let’s just wait for tomorrow night and go together."

Yang Ming comforted his wife, "Don’t worry, I’ll be careful."

"But I’m really worried, what if you’re discovered by the villagers?" Xiaoxiao was genuinely afraid and didn’t want Yang Ming to go.

Yang Ming joked, "If I get caught, just say I was sleepwalking."

"..." At a time , he still had the mood to joke.

"Alright, don’t worry, I will be careful. Even if I run into someone, it’s no big deal, I can handle an individual." Yang Ming held his wife close and comforted her, "Try to sleep early, you’ve had a long day, and I won’t wake you in the middle of the night."
