Chapter 72 Nameless Dining Hall (22)
Carrying an entire afternoon’s worth of work, Li Yannian and the other two happily went back home. As soon as she entered, he saw that the ox-cart was already in the shed. The calf, who usually grazed outside at this time, was still at home. The calf was anxiously pacing back and forth when it saw a few young masters.
“Strange, why didn’t I bring Er Wa out? Mao Dou, go inside the house and take a look, where did Brother go,” Li Yannian was puzzled as he extended his hand to signal Mao Dou to put down the basket and leave it for her to tidy up.
“Alright!” With his short legs, Mao Dou disappeared in an instant. After a while, he came out from behind the guest room on the first floor, “Sis, I’m home. I brought a few people with me.”
Li Yannian became even more confused. She and Black Bean always had a tacit understanding to bring outsiders home, and there were a lot of unusual things in the house.
“Who is it?” She placed the baskets on the side, and pulled Zhao Xu’s sleeves as she entered the hall, “What kind of guest is at home?”
Black Bean walked out of the guest room with a face covered in sweat and explained: “On the road, I met someone who fell off a carriage, and fell into the fields. That horse did not look too good, and there was no one on the road. There was a man and a woman. From the looks of it, the man should be driving the carriage. The woman was about thirteen or fourteen years old. She should be the daughter of a rich family in the town. I thought to myself that if I sent people to the town like this, I would have to send them home if they wanted to gossip and ruin the reputation of the girls. Er Niu, what do you think we should do now? Should we invite Auntie Li and the others over to talk? ”
When Li Yannian heard about this girl, the daughter of a rich family who was still 13 or 14 years old, she suddenly had a bad premonition.
“We should go invite Auntie Li and the others. We should be careful not to have them swindle us, even if there are multiple witnesses. Where were they hurt? Was there any blood? Is there anyone in our village who can see the trauma? At this time, even if he went to the town, it would be too late to invite him. Brother, take it easy next time when you save someone. If I’m not wrong, it’s someone from the Du Family again. ”
Black Bean was speechless. Seeing that a horse carriage had fallen down the slope, he immediately thought of saving his, so how could he think of anything else? Could it be that he would have to wake his up and ask about it next time?
Mao Dou volunteered, “Sis, I’ll go! I’ll go!”
There’s no need for me to look for the person, so Black Bean answered the question that Li Yannian asked before, “The two in there, are bleeding profusely from their heads, so it doesn’t seem to be that serious. I can’t say for sure, but their faces are covered with blood, I don’t know where they broke. If there’s anyone who can see a doctor, Widow Hu will grab a few more sheets of medicine, do you want to invite her over to take a look? ”
At first, Li Yannian nodded, but then looked at him with suspicion. He had explained the driver’s wound clearly, why did Du Mumei look more serious now? It was only then that Li Yannian recalled that Black Bean was probably obstructing the male and female’s defenses and did not dare to look for Du Mumei’s injury. Thinking about it this way, it was good enough for him to invite Widow Hu over.
“I’ll go in and see her. When Mao Dou comes back, let him go to Widow Hu’s house. There must be someone inside to watch, if I don’t move, it won’t be appropriate for you to go to Widow Hu. ”
Black Bean nodded his head, but was a little worried: “Then what about tonight? The coachman can squeeze with us if he wants to. If there’s a sore head at night, there would be someone to take care of her. What should we do with this girl? ”
Li Yannian sighed: “What else can I do? Let’s see her at a disadvantage for one night. I really do owe her. In the morning, she came to my house and mocked me sinisterly. I thought I had scolded her back, but I didn’t think she would be so unlucky as to fall into a field just by riding on a car. ”
Li Yannian pushed the door of the guest room and entered. The one who laid on the light bed inside was not that unlucky Du Mumei.
Hearing Li Yannian’s words, Black Bean made a plan in his mind, then the two of them should have been lying on the ground for a long time. The area where they fell was right in the middle of the road from Li Village to Clear Water Town. It would be better if something happened there as soon as they left the Li Village.
Wait, what did the two girls say just now? Did this girl come to the house to cause trouble? Black Bean’s brows tightened, and asked: “What did this Miss Du come to find you to say? “If she …”
“What if she did?” Li Yannian shrugged her shoulders unconcernedly, “I carried her back with a face full of blood, how could we throw her out? We’ll talk about it when someone wakes up. She had the nerve to say those few words to me, and I didn’t even have the nerve to listen to her. At such a young age, she’s already starting to think about getting married. ”
Black Bean thought, marrying someone at the age of thirteen, could there be something wrong? However, it was clear that the little sister was still somewhat unyielding. She was probably blaming herself for meddling in other people’s business and bringing the Du Family’s little girl home. She obediently did not retort to prevent the little sister from pointing her gun at her again.
“Bro, take Xuanzi to wash his face and wipe his hands first. In the afternoon, take him to the top of the mountain. He even helped us pick leaves when he was up in the future.” At night, you should take him and Mao Dou to take a bath. After a while, the room reeks of sweat, so I’m going to curse. ”
Black Bean could tell that he was extremely angry today, so he hurriedly used the excuse of washing Zhao Xu’s face and wiping his hands to dodge the attack.
Mao Dou had already called people over. Auntie Li entered the house and asked, “What about the lady, where are her injuries?”
Li Yannian forced a smile: “She’s in the guest room, her face was covered in blood, and I didn’t even get a chance to wipe her face, I don’t know where her wounds are.”
Uncle Li nodded towards Black Bean: “Where’s the other one?”
“It’s in my room. Uncle Li, come with me.”
was afraid that he would just stand there and not know how to dodge. In a while, the person in the room left and knocked into a wall, which was bad for him, he immediately brought his men up to the second floor and gave him a handful of pine nuts to slowly peel off himself.
“Xuanzi, you stay in the room obediently. I’ll call you for dinner after you’re done.”
Zhao Xu focused on peeling off the pine nuts. He did not react to Li Yannian’s words, it was unknown if he heard it or not.
Li Yannian sighed, patted his head and closed the door.
When they reached the guest room, Auntie Li had already helped Du Mumei wipe her face clean. Beside her was a basin of blood, which looked extremely scary.
“How is it?”
Auntie Li found it funny. “The back of your head was knocked into a bag, and your face didn’t break at all. You must have been frightened after losing so much blood, right?
Li Yannian was speechless. The reason why Du Mumei was such a weirdo, even her face was covered in blood was such a weirdo!
“Do you still want to call Widow Hu over to take a look?” Li Yannian asked worriedly.
Auntie Li laughed: “Your brother had already called Mao Dou over just now, so it’s good for one more person to come over to take a look. I think that this girl should be waking up soon.
What the Auntie Li said was right, Du Mu Mei had already woken up when Black Bean carried her out of the carriage. At that time, it was dark and there was no one on the road, she thought Black Bean was a strong man, but she had endured it and did not dare make a sound. When she found out that Black Bean had sent her to the Li family, she did not know what she was thinking, nor did she dare open her eyes. She had heard the voice of Li siblings very clearly. There were several times when she wanted to open her eyes and scold Li Yannian, but she didn’t have the courage to go back to town by herself.
The sky had already darkened, and the road was so far away. Even if they reached, the Clear Water Town’s gates were still tightly shut, and they wouldn’t be able to enter until morning.
Going to another house to seek shelter? Even though Du Mumei was a little silly, she wasn’t that stupid as to stay in the house of someone she didn’t know. If anything happened to her, there wouldn’t be any medicine for regret in this world.
At least Li siblings still looked like a good person, they could only endure it for the time being. When they returned to their own home, they would see how she would make Father and Mother take care of this annoying little girl!
She was calculating in her mind, her eyeballs and eyelashes could not help but move as well. Previously, Li Yannian had not been able to see her movements clearly through the blood on his face, but now that he had washed his face clean, he understood that Du Mumei had been pretending to be unconscious.
At first, she had thought about how she would react to this, but when she thought about it, she realized how old she was and how old Du Mumei was. Even if she fought with a young girl, she would still have nothing to do. Forget it, he should just raise her and send her away quickly.
Black Bean came over to pass the message, “Just now, Uncle Li saw that there is nothing wrong with the driver. There is medicine on his head and he will probably wake up tonight. When the Widow Hu comes, ask someone if they can take this girl back to the Widow Hu to take care of her. I think that since they are not going to deal with her, it would be better to avoid provoking her … ”
Before Black Bean could finish his sentence, Du Mumei, who was pretending to be unconscious, jumped up from the wooden board as she shouted unintelligibly, “I won’t go ….”
Everyone in the room had their eyes on her. Du Mumei blushed as she lay back down, but when she thought back to how she despised the Li family for not giving her a good bed.
“This wooden board is too peremptory, sleeping is painful for my bones, aiyo, I woke up because of this pain.” “Where am I?”
Li Yannian retracted her original thought, hehe, her acting was pretty good, and she even learned how to sue first.
“My family has no spare beds, I can’t possibly let you sleep in the same room as my brothers, right? In my opinion, it’s good that you can follow Widow Hu back, and he will treat you, so he can take care of you tonight. ”
“No, you clearly said you wanted me to stay in your room, but I’m not going to the Widow Hu’s. If something happened to me, would you be able to take responsibility?”
The Auntie Li laughed and said unhappily: “Whose family is this little girl from? She sure has a big mouth. If you want me to say it, then hurry up and send a letter to someone’s house, and have them bring back their own girl as well, they owe her that! ”
Li Yannian immediately put on the face of a customer who was a god, and said cordially: “Then it’s different. Miss Du, as you know, you have been lying in that mud all afternoon, and if my brother had not come back from saving you, the wild dog might be sniffing your feet right now. As for the payment of silver, how about this: you and your coachman will pay as much as you think your life is worth. If it’s too little, we won’t mind. If it’s too much, I’ll be happy for you. ”
Du Mumei was so angry that she almost fainted. How could this little girl from the Li Family be so infuriating!
Seeing that his sister was not taken advantage of by Du Mumei, Black Bean was relieved. “I’ll leave it to you, Uncle Li and I will take a look at the land.
Li Yannian turned her head towards Du Mumei and said smilingly, “Miss Du, don’t forget about your family’s horse.”
“Humph!”
