Chapter 130. Why Did You Say Those Eight Words to Him?

Chapter 130.  Why Did You Say Those Eight Words to Him?

In the next second, Ji Shuisheng saw a familiar scene. Ji Shuisheng raised his hand and pulled Li Wu, looking at Su Qing deeply. Su Qing waved the handkerchief before Li Wu's face, and he became dazed. His eyes closed, and his body fell to the ground.

Su Qing looked at him indifferently and understood his meaning from Ji Shuisheng's eyes. She said in a low voice,

"I promised to treat old Qin, so I must keep my promise."

Since she had accepted a thousand taels of silver from the old master and this thousand-year-old Lingzhi, she had to cure him.

Ji Shuisheng looked at Su Qing with a complicated expression. He pulled Li Wu's arm and carried him on his back. With his back facing Su Qing, he said,

"I'll help you."

Old Qin was worth him taking the risk to save him. He had to ask why old Qin had said those words to him. What was in that wooden box?

"No need. You still have concerns, but I have nothing to worry about."

Su Qing rejected him immediately. This was her matter, and she didn't need anyone to interfere.

"I want to know more about this wooden box."

Ji Shuisheng looked at Su Qing's cold face and found an excuse that she could not refuse.

"..."

Su Qing frowned. What was in that black wooden box?

She was also very curious. Why did old Qin give the wooden box to Ji Shuisheng? Could it be related to Ji Shuisheng's great enmity?

Ji Xiaoying's eyes were red the entire time. She did not interrupt when her big brother and big sister were talking. Although she could not bear to part with that kind old man, she did not want her big sister and brother to take the risk. Her heart was in a dilemma.

Ji Shuisheng carried Li Wu back to the team. When Qiu Yue saw Li Wu, she couldn't help but take another look. Who was this person?

Just now, she saw Ji Shuisheng and Su Qing talking to this person for a long time. He seemed to have given brother Shuisheng something, but their bodies were blocking them, and she couldn't see what it was.

After that, the man suddenly fainted, and brother Shuisheng helped him back. It felt extraordinary.

Because of these doubts, Qiu Yue kept staring at them.

Su Qing asked Ji Shuisheng to carry Li Wu into her car. Li Wu had already disguised himself this time. He wore patched clothes and dressed like a commoner escaping from a famine.

However, he was, after all, someone close to old Qin. It was hard to guarantee someone would recognize him, so he had to be hidden.

Madam Li sat in the car and watched in a daze as Ji Shuisheng helped a man up. That man seemed to be unconscious.

Madam Li didn't ask anything and moved to the side to make room.

After seeing Ji Shuisheng settle Li Wu down, Su Qing looked at Madam Li and said to Xiaoying,

"Xiaoying, take your godmother to another car."

Ji Xiaoying's heart was heavy, and her eyes were conflicted. She wanted her big brother to save old Qin, but she feared he would do so. When she heard Su Qing's order, she agreed and went over to help Madam Li.

She knew that her big brother and sister had something to say to each other, and these words had to be said behind their backs.

"Xiaoying."

Su Qing called out to Xiaoying and whispered a few words into her ear. After such a long period of escaping, Xiaoying matured a lot. She knew not to ask questions that she should not ask. She did not ask why Su Qing had told her to say this and just helped MadamLi to the carriage behind.

Qiu Yue saw it and shouted at Xiaoying,

"Xiaoying, there's a seat here."

Ji Xiaoying looked at her with a complicated expression. It would not be very comfortable if she did not go over. She was unwilling to go over, but Qiu Yue had called her out in front of the villagers.

The kind Xiaoying did not want to hurt Qiu Yue, so she had to help Madam Li walk over. Qiu Yue sat down at the side and pushed Li Shuang'er.

"You can take the carriage at the back."

Li Shuang'er looked at her unwillingly. Qiu Yue sighed.

"You've seen that Juan Zi needs someone to care for her. Su Qing bought the carriage. If she doesn't want her to sit in it, there's nothing anyone can do."

In other words, Su Qing had domineeringly chased Madam Li and Xiaoying out of the car because she was the one who had bought it.

Li Shuang'er and Ji Xiaoying did not like what they heard. Ji Xiaoying was the first to explain on Su Qing's behalf,

"Sister Qiu Yue, you can't talk nonsense. That uncle is sick, and sister wants to treat him. She's not chasing us away."

"That's right. Sister Su Qing isn't that kind of person. If it were you, you'd be more like that. You're selfish and only think about yourself."

Li Shuang 'er retorted. She disliked Qiu Yue more and more. She didn't want her to talk about sister Su Qing. She wasn't afraid that Qiu Yue would be unhappy.

Qiu Yue was annoyed by Li Shuang'er's words, but she suppressed her anger and said,

"You misunderstood me. What I meant was that the car belonged to Su Qing. She can let whoever she wants to sit in it.

"Come on, who doesn't understand what you mean? Aren't you just picking on the relationship between Xiaoying and sister Su Qing? Despicable."

Li Shuang'er didn't care if there was anyone in front of her. She rolled her eyes at Qiu Yue, who was still pretending to be wronged and unhappily exposed her.

"You ..."

Qiu Yue's heart ached. She wanted to curse Li Shuang'er for being Su Qing's lackey but feared that Su Qing would hear her.

Qiu Yue often dreamed of Su Qing killing people. She was afraid that Su Qing would slaughter her like a chicken.

The villagers in the carriage also looked at Qiu Yue with a deeper meaning. After what Qiu Yue had done over the past few days, everyone's impression of her worsened.

Li Shuang'er only went to the back of the carriage to squeeze in when she saw that Qiu Yue had stopped talking. Ji Xiaoying helped Madam Li into the carriage. She did not want to sit beside Qiu Yue, who spoke weirdly and wanted to sit in the carriage at the back.

"Xiaoying, I'm injured, and Tang Zi can't see. I can't take care of her."

Qiu Yue held Xiaoying's hand, looking weak.

Ji Xiaoying looked at the dazed and helpless Madam Li. Indeed, she could not leave her here alone. Her godmother would be afraid of being surrounded by strangers. She could only sit next to Qiu Yue in the car.

When they first left, Qiu Yue kept peeking at Xiaoying's expression. When she saw that she was unhappy, she did not say anything. It was only when Ji Shuisheng called for them to stop the carriage for a rest that she carefully said to Ji Xiaoying,"

"Xiaoying, can I trouble you to help me to the toilet?"

"Alright then!"

Ji Xiaoying had no choice but to agree. Madam Li suddenly pulled on her hand.

"Xiaoying, I'll go too."

Ji Xiaoying hurriedly helped her godmother out of the car.

"Godmother, be careful."

Qiu Yue frowned and looked at Madam Li, but she could not say anything about not letting Madam Li go. She could only get off the carriage with the help of the board. Aunt Qiu quickly came over to help her daughter, but Qiu Yue shook her head.

"Mother, I don't need you. Xiaoying is with me. She will take care of me."

Aunt Qiu looked at Xiaoying. She had heard what her daughter had said just now. She was terrified that Qiu Yue would say something else, so she lowered her voice and said,

"Don't talk nonsense,"

"Okay."

Qiu Yue obediently agreed. Seeing that Ji Xiaoying had no intention of supporting her, she clutched her ribs and gritted her teeth as she followed behind them.

It was not easy to heal a broken bone. It had been so many days, and the pain was still excruciating. Qiu Yue hated Su Qing even more now.

They went into the woods to use the toilet. Li Wu woke up in the carriage and saw Su Qing sitting there, looking at him with a cold expression. Li Wu wanted to jump out of the carriage but found no strength. He leaned against the carriage and asked Su Qing with a bitter smile,

"Lady Su, why did you stop me?"
