Chapter 104:1 Bought It
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
The driver was Feng Daneng. Many people in the village knew that Feng Daneng had followed Gu Yundong to the Peng residence this morning. It was all thanks to Jin Yuexiang’s publicity.
Therefore, when they saw him, everyone could not help but surround him. They even asked him where this carriage came from. Was it from the Peng Residence?
Before Feng Daneng could answer, he was interrupted by Jin Yuexiang, who had rushed over to watch the show. “What do you mean the Peng family gave it to him? What are you all thinking? Gu Yundong went to cause trouble for Young Master Peng, but the Peng family still gave them a carriage?”
As he spoke, he even laughed loudly and said maliciously, “I think she was beaten to death by the Peng family. Feng Daneng hired a carriage to pull her back, right?”
Everyone took two steps back with a whoosh. They widened their eyes and looked at the carriage in fear, as if bright red blood would flow out at any time.
Feng Daneng felt helpless. Jin Yuexiang was full of nonsense. No matter how domineering the Peng family was, they would not dare to kill someone so blatantly and ask him to pull the corpse back.
However, everyone in the village believed it. Even Chen Liang, who had rushed over later, widened his eyes in disbelief. He said bitterly, “Did… did something really happen? Sigh, Daneng, why didn’t you stop them? You, you…”
Before he could finish speaking, Gu Yundong slowly lifted the curtain and smiled at everyone. “This carriage was indeed not given by the Peng family. I bought it myself.”
“Whoa.” Everyone took a small step back in unison.
The smug smile on Jin Yuexiang’s face instantly froze. She widened her eyes and looked at Gu Yundong. “You’re fine?”
“What are you talking about? What can happen to me?”
“Didn’t you go and find trouble with the Peng family?”
Gu Yundong looked innocent. “Who did you hear that from?”
Jin Yuexiang shouted, “I heard it with my own ears. It was clearly Feng Daneng who said that the blueprint had been taken away by Young Master Peng. He didn’t even allow you to build a house. You went to the Peng family to ask for an explanation.”
Oh, so she was eavesdropping.
Gu Yundong raised his eyebrows. “Oh, Young Master Peng only said that my drawing is very good and wanted to borrow it to take a look. I happened to be going to the county city to buy something today, so I took the drawing back. Why is it that when it comes to you, it becomes me going to the Peng residence to demand an explanation? Do you dare to say this in front of Young Master Peng?”
Feng Daneng said righteously, “That’s right. Yundong wanted to buy a carriage. 1 happen to be more familiar with it, so she asked me to help her pick one. She could also go to the Peng residence to get the blueprints. Jin Yuexiang, how can you distort the truth and spread rumors everywhere, making everyone panic?”
Jin Yuexiang was dumbfounded. Did she hear wrongly? No.
The others suddenly understood. So that was the case. If it was really as Jin Yuexiang had said, would Feng Daneng and Gu Yundong be able to return safely?
Indeed, they could not trust Big Mouth’s words too much. Chen Liang heaved a sigh of relief and turned his attention to the carriage. “Did you buy this?”
Gu Yundong got out of the carriage. “I thought that it would be more convenient with a carriage. We won’t have to rely on our legs to go to the county next time.”
Chen Liang nodded. The Gu family was indeed wealthy.
“The Gu girl.” At this moment, someone suddenly called out to her from the side and said enviously, “Your carriage looks very good. This horse looks strong. The carriage is also sturdy and big.. In the future, when we go to the county city, it will be convenient, right?”
