Wu Xiaowen dropped Tang Yaxuan off at school, then stopped at the entrance to Xiao Man's home on her way back. She was no pushover and had a temper of her own; after being so thoroughly humiliated by Grandma Tang, there was no way she would debase herself by going inside. Instead, she stood by the car with a cold expression and sent the driver in to fetch Tang Qingyun. She demanded that he and Hao Hao return to Wancheng with her.
Tang Qingyun came out and they exchanged a few words, but he refused to go with her. His mother had come all this way; he had to stay and keep her company for at least a couple of days. He would be staying in the village tonight. Tomorrow, Xiao Feng would bring a car to take them to Ping County, and the day after that, his mother and brother would return to Beijing.
Besides, Hao Hao was starting school again tomorrow, so him going to Wancheng was out of the question.
