Chapter 742: I Can
Editor: Henyee Translations
Qin Shu poured some water and told them to sit for a while while he went out to look for the doctor.
Dai Yi followed him. Not long after, a doctor limped over.
Actually, Dai Zhong was much better. Shao Qingyuan had treated him in time and used the right medicine. He was no longer dizzy, but his skin was still swollen and uncomfortable.
The doctor checked and only said that it was nothing serious. He told him to rest well, then took two copper coins and left.
Qin Shu was very happy. He let them sit down first and went to the kitchen to make dinner.
Dai Yi then explained what he had seen on the way to invite the doctor. It was indeed as Qin Shu had said. This place was surrounded by mountains on all sides, and there was only one road out of the village. It was bumpy and difficult to walk. There was still a long way to go on the main road outside. No wonder there were no outsiders.
“This place belongs to Shuanghu County. It takes nearly six hours to get to the nearest Anbei Town, and it’s even further to the county city. Moreover, this village doesn’t have a carriage. We can’t buy one even if we want to.”
When Qin Shu came over, he happened to hear this. He said, “Our village doesn’t have a carriage, but the village chief has an ox cart. After dinner, I’ll help you borrow it.”
“Okay.”
Qin Shu was still very happy to be able to help them. He was also talkative. When they were eating, he asked them curiously where they came from, what the prefectural city outside was like, if they had been to the capital or seen any big shots.
He had many questions, and the yearning he revealed made Gu Yundong think of Yunshu.
When she was still in Gu village, Yunshu’s eyes were filled with desire and curiosity for the outside world.
Therefore, she would answer Qin Shu whenever she could.
Qin Shu was indeed satisfied. After dinner, he brought the few of them to the village chief’s house.
Gu Yundong already knew that Qin Shu had lost his parents when he was young. His father had passed away long ago and his mother had remarried. It was said that she had left Qinnan Village and gone outside. No one knew where she was now.
Perhaps, this was also one of the reasons why Qin Shu was curious about the outside world.
Qin Shu grew up eating from hundreds of families. As he was also a member of the Qin family, the village chief took good care of him.
The village chief already knew that Qin Shu had brought a few lost strangers from the depths of the mountains. The village was only so big, so everyone knew about the slightest accident.
Compared to Qin Shu’s pure enthusiasm, the village chief was clearly much more cautious.
He sized up the three people standing in front of him. Although they were all wearing rough clothes, it was not difficult to tell that these three people were people who lived extremely well.
Dai Wenhuo, in particular, was much more distinguished than the young masters of the rich families he had seen in the county city.
As the village chief watched, he felt uncomfortable. He shifted his body slightly to control the urge to stand up and give up his seat to them.
He coughed lightly and asked, “You want to borrow the ox cart to go to the county city?”
“Yes.” It was Dai Wenhuo who spoke. “Don’t worry, Village Chief. We won’t borrow it for nothing. We won’t give you any less money.”
Gu Yundong rubbed her forehead. Young Master, you’re too direct.
The village chief shifted uncomfortably again. “It’s not impossible for you to borrow my ox cart, but who will drive it? Originally, my son could send you there, but he hasn’t been feeling well these two days and can’t go out.”
Qin Shu immediately said, “I can send them there.”
The village chief glanced at him and said in frustration, “You? Are you sure?”
