Chapter 268 Seven Mile Village
Fu Yusheng almost thought that he was abandoned by the whole world. His wife left without even showing him a good face, and his son started to give orders as soon as he was with him. However, Fu Yusheng was not angry, nor did he show any impatience. He squatted in front of Fu Chen calmly and asked, "Have you had breakfast?"
"Yes." Fu Chen put his backpack on the table in front of the TV. Although the layout of Fu Yusheng's house is very similar to Song Lingyan's house, his apartment does not have accommodation facilities, unlike Song's apartment. The apartment is fully equipped. Even Fu Chen, who hated being with his father the most, was happy to be reunited on the soft sofa. He jumped on the sofa, sighed with satisfaction, picked up the remote control, and turned on the cartoon channel.
Fu Yusheng looked at his actions and shook his head. He knew that his son just wanted to irritate him, but Fu Yusheng was not someone who would be impatient because of such things. After all, he was the head of the Fu family. If he got angry because of a small matter, how could he run such a big company?
He strode to Fu Chen and whispered, "If you can finish your summer homework, I will prepare ice cream for you at noon. I heard from your teacher that you are going to write a daily report on growing potatoes. What's going on?"
"Not bad." Fu Chen was reluctant to look Fu Yusheng in the eye. Although his mother was good at many things, she was not very good at taking care of plants or pets. It was actually safe. If she was responsible for such things every time, she would end up being killed by her. That's why he tried to grow potatoes with the help of his mother's online tutorial, but the problem was that it didn't go well.
Fu Yusheng certainly understood what was going on, so he went into the kitchen, took out a pot, potatoes with sprouts, and a bag of fertilizer and soil, put them all on the ground, and said, "Come on, I'll help you do this. Although I don't look like it, I can take care of the plants."
Fu Chen stared at his father suspiciously. Fu Yushen frowned and said, "Why? Don't you want to get good grades in class?"
Of course he was willing, so Fu Chen finally did what his father said.
On one hand, Fu Yusheng and Fu Chen were enjoying a good time as father and son, while Song Yan and Fu Yushen were standing at the taxi stand.
The two set out from the apartment and went to the taxi stand to take a taxi to their destination, but every time Song Yan lowered her head and told the driver that she was going to Qili Village, he would shake his head and stomp his feet and drive away, leaving only a cloud of exhaust gas and smoke behind him.
She did the same thing to several drivers. Every time she stopped a taxi, she would lower her head and tell them her destination. But every time the drivers heard that she was going to the village and imperial tombs discovered by the archaeological department, they would shake hands and leave. Some were even polite and carefully asked her to give up the idea and stay at home before driving away.
"Sister-in-law, why don't we listen to their advice and go home?" Fu Yushen asked, holding the bag that Song Yan asked him to carry. "I mean, I'm not a superstitious person, but even I think the universe doesn't want us to go to that tomb, so why not give up the idea and go home directly?"
Song Yan didn't say anything, but just glanced at him lightly, which made Fu Yushen shut up immediately. She knew that it would be difficult to go to Qili Village. After all, the rumors flying around were not pleasant. After the report was published in the newspaper, it would only make others more wary of this place.
"Just call a taxi and go to the village." Fang Yanli said as she watched the drivers leave one by one. "That would be much easier, don't you think?"
"I wanted to order one, but there were no taxis going to that village," Song Yan replied, and seeing another taxi about to stop, she stopped it, but this time she showed the driver double the fare. . "Drive us to Qili Village, and I'll give you an extra tip, okay?"
Hearing the name "Qili Village", the driver's face changed, but then he looked at the money in Song Yan's hand and nodded. "I will only drive to the entrance of the village, you can come by yourself from now on."
"I know." Song Yan knew that no one was willing to drive into the village, so he was too lazy to let him drive straight to Qili Village.
The driver really needed money, so he agreed to Song Yan's request, but because he was born in poverty, he was too polite and kind, and didn't want to put these young people in danger. For the extra income, he honestly advised her: "Miss, I know that many people want to visit the grave in Qili Village after reading today's newspaper, but I still want to ask you to change your decision. Qili Village is not a place you want to go now. It is very dangerous... So it's better to save your life and stay away from such risks."
