Chapter 746: What You Should Have
Editor: Henyee Translations
Qin Shu quickly realized that someone was missing. Dai Wenhuo only explained, “I asked him to buy some things.”
Qin Shu nodded and believed it, but Gu Yundong and Shao Qingyuan did not.
Dai Yi’s expression was not right when he returned just now. He must have kept something to himself.
However, they also knew that Dai Wenhuo and Qin Wenzheng had tried their best not to involve them. The less they knew, the better.
Everyone tacitly ignored the abnormality and went to the carriage shop to buy a carriage.
Gu Yundong originally wanted to rent one, but she had encountered the robber previously. In order to avoid more trouble, she bought a carriage and drove back.
Seeing that his mission was pleted, Qin Shu heaved a huge sigh of relief and sat on the ox cart with a smile.
“Brother Shao, Brother Dai, Sister Gu, this is it. I wish you all a safe journey. Sister Gu, thank you for telling me so much about the outside world. I’ll remember your words. Goodbye.”
He was about to leave when Gu Yundong pulled him aside and gave him ten taels of silver.
“We’re the ones who should thank you. Take this as our food and acmodation expenses. You can keep it.”
Qin Shu widened his eyes and quickly retracted his hand. “No need, no need. Didn’t you treat me to a meal too? I’m already very satisfied after ing to such a good restaurant and eating braised fish. I can’t accept this.”
“Take it.” Gu Yundong insisted. “This is what you deserve. If you really don’t want it, then… buy something for the people in your village. Didn’t you say that they helped you a lot? You can help them now.”
“But…” This wasn’t his money. Even if he helped, he wouldn’t be the one helping.
But Qin Shu could not win against Gu Yundong’s decision.
After some thought, he could only say, “Then, then I’ll use this silver to buy some rice, flour, grains, and oil and send them to the uncles and aunties in the village. I’ll say that you gave them to me.”
“Up to you.” If she gave him the money, it would be his. How he dealt with it was his own business.
Qin Shu heaved a sigh of relief. Only then did he feel that the silver in his hand was not so hot.
However, he was still happy in his heart. After bidding farewell to Gu Yundong and the others, he took the money to buy food, cloth, and daily necessities. He placed them in the ox cart and transported them back.
When they returned to the village, someone immediately realized that there were many things on the carriage.
Qin Shu chuckled and said that these were all given by those guests. Then, he asked the village chief to help distribute them to everyone.
The village chief knew that these were definitely for Qin Shu alone. Only this silly boy would take them all out to share.
However, he knew how to be grateful. He knew how to repay his uncles and aunts in the village. It was still very gratifying.
The villagers were all sensible people. Some of them refused to accept it and said that they had not helped much. However, if they did not accept it, Qin Shu simply left it at the village chief’s house.
The village chief was speechless.
In the end, it was the village chief who spoke up and helped to distribute them. After that, there was still a lot left for Qin Shu to bring back.
When Qin Shu returned home and opened the rice jar, he realized that there were two large bags of rice and flour inside. For a moment, his eyes were a little moist.
He thought that if he had the chance to see Sister Gu again in the future, he would definitely repay her well.
These were all things for another time.
On the other side, after Gu Yundong and the others parted ways with Qin Shu, they drove the carriage back.
Dai Yi had yet to return. Although Gu Yundong and Shao Qingyuan did not say anything, they were very slow.
It was not until the next afternoon that Dai Yi rode his horse over.
