Chapter 14: You’re back?

The melon-eating people nearby were all envious, and they all talked about it.

“This young master is a kind-hearted person.”

“Yes, 20 taels of silver is enough to eat for several years.”

Gu Qing’s expression calmed down, and he stood up and raised his hands to Xiao Yu: “Young Master is a very righteous man, but I cannot be dishonest in my words.”

“As I said before, this money was borrowed, so it must be paid back, otherwise, I will become a villain who breaks his word!”

“Please, young master, ask someone to go home with us, brother and sister, to collect the silver.”

Xiao Yu was a little impatient: “How can you be long-winded? Fine, give it back if you want! Shitou, go back with them to get the silver!”

Xiao Yu said a few words, turned around, and left with another boy.

Shitou didn’t say much and said to Gu Qing: “Then let’s go.”

After walking a few steps, Gu Qing suddenly stopped and said: “This won’t work. My sister’s body can’t walk a long way. I have to hire a carriage.”

An enthusiastic person nearby said: “I’ll call you a carriage. I know someone who drives the carriage.”

Gu Qing bowed his hands and said: “Thank you very much, brother.”

After a while, the carriage arrived. Gu Qing helped Gu Fei into the carriage. Shitou sat outside with the carriage driver very consciously.

Gu Qing first asked the driver to go to the medicine shop, let the doctor take a look at Gu Fei’s injury, buy some medicine to treat the injury, and then rush home.

Along the way, Gu Qing also sat outside and chatted with Shitou.

“Brother Shitou, your young master looks like a nobleman, so why would he go to a place like Nanshi?”

Nanshi sells people and livestock, and also livestock’s feces. It was not a place for noble people to go.

Shitou smiled and said: “My young master loves horses. When he has free time, he will walk around the market to see if he can encounter any good horses. My young master has a good way of looking at horses.”

“This is the first time for our young master to come to Lincheng, so he naturally wants to visit Nanshi.”

Gu Qing nodded, “I see, your accent doesn’t sound like you’re from Lincheng.”

Shitou smiled enigmatically and said no more.

Gu Fei lay on the mat, listening to the gossip outside, while taking out a piece of bread from the space and gnawing on it. She was starving.

The carriage moved quickly and left the city. They arrived at Gujia Village in less than half an hour.

The carriage stopped at the door of the Gu family. Li Chunhua, the eldest sister-in-law of the Gu family, heard the commotion and came out.

Li Chunhua saw her husband getting out of the car and said: “How much grain did you buy, you brought it back in a carriage.”

Gu Qing waved his hand: “I haven’t bought any food. Please call our parents out quickly. I brought the sister back.”

“Sister is back?” Li Chunhua wanted to open the curtain of the carriage, but she was in a hurry to go back to the house to report the news. She stumbled with her left foot and almost fell, but still ran into the house quickly.

Gu Fei opened the curtain and was about to jump out of the car when Gu Qing stood beside her nervously: “Sister, you are injured. Don’t move around. Lie on my back and I will carry you down.”

Gu Fei was in a complicated mood and let out a sound, silently lying on Gu Qing’s back.

From the moment this eldest brother saw Gu Qing today, he asked people to borrow money for herself and even kowtowed others until he got a bruise on his forehead.

This eldest brother loves his sister.

Before they could reach the main room, a middle-aged woman rushed out of the room. When the woman saw Gu Fei on Gu Qing’s back, she cried, “Xiao Fei, you’re back.”
