Chapter 103: Who cares?
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Gu Yundong quickly held the carriage door and sat down. He looked up at the person who had been thrown out.
That person was in a sorry state. The lower half of his body looked bloody, and his face was swollen.
Eh? Why does he look so familiar? Where have I seen him before?
She didn’t know him, but Feng Daneng did. He was shocked. “Isn’t this Hu Liang? Why is he here and beaten up like this by the Peng family? Yundong, should we…”
Feng Daneng wanted to ask if he could help. Although this rascal was quite hateful, they were from the same village after all. It was a little unreasonable for him to stand by and do nothing when he saw him like this.
Unexpectedly, before he could finish speaking, Hu Liang, who was beaten half to death, started crying at the Peng residence. “I’m not lying. I’m really here to look for Young Master Peng. Aiyo, that Gu Yundong wants to harm Young Master Peng. She went around our village saying that Young Master Peng stole her things and even said that she has a backer to torture Young Master Peng to death.”
Hu Liang did not know how things had turned out like this. He had been in the Peng Residence since the moment he woke up. He was about to look for Young Master Peng when he was caught. They said that he was a thief who had broken into the residence. He must have been involved in Young Master’s accident. Then, he was beaten up without a word and thrown out.
Gu Yundong sneered. Facing Feng Daneng’s similarly gloomy expression, she said, “Who cares if he dies?”
It didn’t look like he had been hit very seriously. He still had so much strength to frame her.
Feng Daneng did not look at Hu Liang again and drove the carriage past him.
Hu Liang still wanted to work hard, but he did not expect another person to come out of the Peng Residence. It was Peng Zhongfei’s servant.
This servant had been taking care of Peng Zhongfei who had been beaten up previously. Later on, he heard the subordinates talking about Hu Liang. When he reported it to the young master, the young master was actually very angry. He said that the Gu family was under his protection now. Whoever dared to destroy the Gu family’s house would be going against the Peng family. He asked the servant to come out and give Hu Liang a warning.
The servant did not look at Hu Liang. He only said a few words to the thugs beside him before entering again.
As soon as he left, the thugs began to approach Hu Liang step by step…
Gu Yundong and his wife did not know what happened after that. As soon as she arrived at South Street, she started shopping crazily.
With money in her hands, she did not panic. In addition, she was living in the Zeng family now, so she did not need to be wary of anyone.
She bought a few bolts of cloth from the shop and then went to the provision store to buy daily necessities. However, the provision store in the county city was really too small compared to the prefectural city.
When she saw the jewelry shop, she went in and bought two small gold locks for Gu Yunshu and Gu Yunke.
She remembered that the youngest son of the second branch had a small golden lock. Gu Yunshu was very envious when he saw it. Now that she saw it, she would definitely be happy.
There was also a silver hairpin for her mother.
She was good-looking. After cleaning up, she would be a beauty. With some jewelry, she was simply too pleasing to the eye.
In the end, she bought herself a pair of earrings. Yes, if she was rich, she had to show off.
After buying the jewelry, she went to buy a lot of food. Thinking of Shao Qingyuan, she paused and went to the blacksmith’s shop to get a barbecue rack. She could come over and get it in five to six days. When the time came, she would make him a barbecue.
After buying everything, it was almost evening.
Satisfied, Gu Yundong returned to the village in the carriage.
Even though it was getting late, the carriage still attracted everyone’s attention as soon as it entered the village..
