Shao Qingyuan still hugged her tightly and rode back with her.
They had already run a long way. Madam Yang and the others were probably worried to death.
Shao Qingyuan thought that the injury on her hand needed to be treated properly and couldn’t help but speed up.
However, when they saw where the carriage was parked from afar, their faces could not help but darken.
Ah Mao and the others were either holding their stomachs or hands and feet as they fell to the ground, groaning in pain. Shen Sitian protected Madam Yang and Bian Yuanzhi as she stood beside the carriage and looked at the people opposite her warily.
There were seven people standing in front of them. One was a middle-aged man dressed in riches who looked like the master. The other was a boy in his early teens. There were two tall men who looked like guards. There were also two coachmen and a maidservant. There were also two carriages behind them.
This group of people was the ones who had brushed past them at that time.
Shao Qingyuan rode his horse forward. When Ah Mao and the other three saw them, their eyes lit up. They couldn’t care less about the pain on their bodies. They stood up and staggered over. “Young Master, Miss, it’s him. It’s that kid who blew an arrow at Gale’s butt. That’s why Gale suddenly ran crazily. We wanted to stop them, but we couldn’t beat him…”
He pointed at the boy in his early teens. Shao Qingyuan’s sharp gaze suddenly shot towards him.
The child was a little afraid when he met his gaze. However, he quickly thought of the two guards on his side. The four people who wanted to stop them just now had been beaten until their butts were swollen. What was there to be afraid of?
Therefore, the boy raised his chin and snorted. “So what if it’s me?” He was still playing with a small blowpipe in his hand. “I just wanted to see if that horse is a good horse. I heard that even if a smart horse has a knife cut into its body, it will consider the owner on its back and endure the pain. It seems that your horse can’t do it. I… Ah.”
Before he could finish speaking, his head was hit hard. He looked up and glared at the middle-aged man. “Father, why did you hit me?”
The man didn’t look at him. He only cupped his hands at Shao Qingyuan and said with a smile, “I’m really sorry. I didn’t teach my son well. This girl was frightened. Fortunately, she’s safe and sound. Here’s 20 taels of silver. Take it as a compensation for you.”
He took out a banknote and handed it over.
Shao Qingyuan did not even look at it. He just bent down and entered the carriage. He took out the first aid kit and lowered his head to carefully treat the wound on Gu Yundong’s palm.
Madam Yang and the others exclaimed and hurriedly ran forward. “Dongdong, are you bleeding?”
Madam Yang’s heart ached terribly. She lowered her head and blew on it for her, her tears almost falling.
Gu Yundong could only comfort her. “It’s alright, it doesn’t hurt.”
The man’s outstretched hand was a little awkward. When he saw Gu Yundong’s palm, he suddenly realized something and quickly took out another banknote. “This is 50 taels. Please accept it.”
Shao Qingyuan still had his head lowered. He had already wrapped her hand with gauze layer by layer.
The corners of Gu Yundong’s mouth twitched. Wasn’t it a little too thick?
Seeing that the strangers had ignored them again and again, the child finally couldn’t help but say, “Hey, my father is talking to you. Do you hear him?”
Seeing that the hand was treated , Shao Qingyuan let go and walked towards the child.
One of the guards instinctively sensed danger and reached out to stand in front of the child.
The child was a little unwilling to be protected, which made it seem as if he was afraid of them..
