Chapter 743: She Likes This Place
Editor: Henyee Translations
Qin Shu met the village chief’s gaze and suddenly realized something. He immediately lowered his head silently and did not speak.
Indeed, the next moment, the village chief said speechlessly, “You haven’t even been to the county city. How can you send them there? You may be unable to find your way back by then.”
Qin Shu scratched his head, feeling a little troubled.
After a while, he turned around and asked Gu Yundong, “I’ve never been to the county city, but I’ve been to town. Can I send you to town? There are carriages in town too. You can buy one.”
“Sure.”
Qin Shu’s eyes lit up and he suddenly turned to look at the village chief. “Village chief, she said that it’s okay.”
The village chief was speechless for a long time. He sighed and said, “Alright, you can send them off.”
Qin Shu happily went to the backyard to fetch the ox cart, leaving Dai Wenhuo to discuss the price of renting the ox cart with the village chief.
In the end, he gave them one tael of silver and the village chief sent them out.
Actually, Gu Yundong had also thought about not borrowing an ox cart. It was just walking. It was not like she had never walked before.
However, she did not know if Dai Zhong would be able to completely recover tomorrow. Moreover, Shao Qingyuan felt that if the conditions allowed it, he still wanted Gu Yundong to walk less.
Fortunately, Dai Zhong was much better when the group set off early the next morning. Other than his slightly swollen face, there was nothing uncomfortable about him.
He was not even willing to take the ox cart and insisted on walking by himself. It was Dai Wenhuo who shouted at him.
Gu Yundong was the last to leave the Qin family’s courtyard. When no one was paying attention, she placed two bags of rice and flour into the rice jar in the kitchen. They were all taken out from her spatial storage.
With the hiking bag as a cover, Qin Shu would only think that she had taken it out of her bag.
The Qin family’s conditions were really not good. The five of them ate at his house twice and finished the last bit of flour.
This child was too generous. Seeing that they were all grown men, he gave them a lot.
As he only took out coarse grain buns, he felt very embarrassed.
Fortunately, there were no outsiders in this village. Otherwise, this kid would probably be robbed.
However, it could be seen that although there were not many people in Qinnan Village, their relationship was very harmonious. Otherwise, Qin Shu, who had no parents since he was young, would not have developed such a personality. He had probably received the care and help of the villagers since he was young and was filled with gratitude.
Moreover, she heard a neighbor quietly come over and ask Qin Shu if there was enough food at home.
After putting down the rice and flour, Gu Yundong came out with the hiking bag.
The ox cart was already set up, but there were too many people. It was impossible for everyone to sit on it.
Gu Yundong was a woman, so Shao Qingyuan was the first to help her up.
In addition to Dai Zhong, there were only two people in the carriage. Even Qin Shu could not sit.
The farmers cherished the ox very much. If it was not necessary, they could not bear for it to suffer. If it were not for the injured and the woman among them, Qin Shu would not have helped to borrow the ox cart from the village chief’s house.
The group walked towards the entrance of the village. On the way, many people from the village looked at them curiously.
Gu Yundong looked over. These people smiled, and some children hid away shyly.
Gu Yundong suddenly liked this village very much. It was a very peaceful, simple, and friendly village. Although it was remote, it actually felt like a paradise.
It was only when they were outside the village that Gu Yundong slowly retracted her gaze and looked at the narrow road that led to town.
Although they had set off early in the morning, the journey was really long. It was not until noon that they finally arrived at Anbei Town.
