Chapter 241 - 241: Seeing Gu Yundong’s Foolish Smile
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
This was a small town with a small population. There were only two or three good inns in the town.
Gu Yundong chose a rather lively inn and she only booked an upper room.
When she was out, she naturally had to stay with Madam Yang.
The day before, she slept late and woke up early. After dinner, she fell asleep as soon as she touched the pillow. On the other hand, Madam Yang was a little unaccustomed with her eyes open.
Ah Shu and Keke weren’t around, but Dongdong was. It was fine.
Madam Yang turned sideways. She did not move, afraid that she would disturb Gu Yundong’s rest. She just looked at her gently.
Seeing that Gu Yundong had kicked the blanket away, she hurriedly covered her again nervously.
Gu Yundong was a light sleeper when she was outside. She suddenly opened her eyes.
Madam Yang immediately became helpless. “Did I wake you up? I just wanted to cover you with a blanket. You’ll catch a cold.”
Gu Yundong’s expression immediately softened. She looked at the blanket on her body and said in a low voice, “It’s okay. Go to sleep.”
“Okay.” This time, Madam Yang obediently closed her eyes and tried her best to fall asleep.
Gu Yundong could not help but smile. She felt warm all over. Although her mother was innocent, she loved the children very much.
She really hoped that they could successfully find Doctor Song this time and get him to treat her mother’s illness.
Her journey had been quite smooth. She hoped that this smoothness would continue.
Gu Yundong closed her eyes and fell asleep quietly.
The next morning, the two of them got up early and set off again.
It was a long journey from Yongfu Village to Qing’an Prefecture, and it was impossible for the horse to speed up every day. Even if they could take it, the horse could not.
When she left home, the two little guys reminded her repeatedly to take good care of Wind Chaser.
Therefore, Gu Yundong would be slow for a day if she rushed for two days. Doctor Song had only set off two days earlier than her. Qin Wenzheng said that he was already old, so he definitely couldn’t ride the carriage too quickly. Otherwise, he would fall sick.
She should be able to make it.
After five to six days, they were almost halfway through the journey.
They would not always coincidentally encounter a town or county city and be able to stay in an inn.
Sometimes, when it was dark and they happened to arrive at a village, they would stay here for the night.
Just like this village called FuguiO Village.
It was quite… fitting to call it a rich village. This village was much better than Yongfu Village. After all, the village was close to the official road and there were many guests coming and going. There were even people selling snacks at the entrance of the village.
Therefore, when Gu Yundong’s carriage drove into the village, the adults who passed by only looked at it in surprise. Only a few children followed behind happily as if they were joining in the fun.
Gu Yundong went to look for the village chief directly. Hence, this Fugui Village was not called for nothing. It was obvious that the village chief was much smarter than Chen Liang. He mentioned a bunch of benefits of the village so that he could raise the accommodation fee.
Gu Yundong lived in the village chief’s house. It was also a green brick house with many rooms. It was not a problem to vacate one of the rooms for Gu Yundong and her mother. They even included breakfast and dinner. The price was also within her acceptable range.
Gu Yundong nodded and planned to go out to pull the carriage to the backyard.
Beside the carriage stood a group of children. When they saw her come out, they ran away with a smile.
Only one person was still standing there. That person was not a child. He was tall and big. He tilted his head slightly and smiled foolishly at Gu Yundong.
However, when Gu Yundong saw the person’s face clearly, her pupils constricted and she was stunned on the spot.
