Accompanied by the sound of horse hooves, Wang Kui shouted, "Whoa!"
The brown horse stopped at the entrance of the Yang Family's main gate.
Wang Kui extended his large hand and lifted Yang Qiu down, then jumped off the horse himself.
By the time they reached Yang Family Village, it was already dark, and the Yang Family gate was tightly shut and locked.
Yang Qiu had no choice but to step forward and shout, "Second Brother, Second Sister-in-law, it's Xiaoqiu, please open the gate."
He called them Second Brother and Second Sister-in-law mainly because he had to pass through their courtyard to return to his parents' courtyard.
The countryside nights were typically uneventful, and everyone in the village went to bed early, as did the Yang family.
Yang Gang and his wife had just laid down when they heard Yang Qiu making commotion outside.
