After I traveled through the book, I spoiled the anorexic prince

Chapter 114: Engagement Tomorrow and Wedding the Day After Tomorrow

Gu Qinghe was stunned. She had never had such a thought before and didn't know how Aunt Gu saw it.

There are so many heroes in the world, she would definitely not be a big problem, and so would her parents in her previous life. But they still sacrificed themselves for the cause of recording civilization.

Gu Qinghe agreed with Auntie Gu on this idea. She looked at her sad and painful eyes and said softly, "Don't worry, Auntie Gu. My heart is also very small. It can only hold my family and my love."

Under the warm yellow oil lamp, Gu Qinghe made this promise.

Aunt Gu felt relieved, but she didn't expect that one day she would hate the little girl in front of her for breaking her promise.

That night.

It was not just the Gu family in Chui Liu Village who had long conversations all night long.

Niu Er's wife, who was only allocated a small room in the crowded compound of the Niu family, tossed and turned and couldn't fall asleep. She pushed the man next to her who was sleeping like an even more dead pig to wake up.

The sturdy man was disturbed from his sleep and cursed in a rough voice: "What are you making a fuss about, you damn bitch? You're still not sleeping in the middle of the night, are you going to fight ghosts?"

Niu Er's wife was so angry that she said, "I'm going to hit you on the head, you idiot, don't you know that the Gu family is prosperous now?! And you sleep like a pig, you deserve it that you can't earn as much as the first wife, and you can't compare with the third wife!"

When Niu Erlang saw her getting angry, he turned over and went back to sleep.

"Don't sleep!" Niu Er's wife grabbed his ears and twisted him up: "Let's think about what to do?"

After being nagging her again and again, Niu Erlang accepted his fate and sat up, saying dejectedly, "What else can I do? I can't beat her, and I can't make a fuss. What else can I do? It's better to sleep quietly and pretend that I don't know. Before, mother said that my little brother should marry her, but you refused to agree. Now that you are rich, you are thinking about these miscellaneous things."

"I didn't agree before because her family is full of old, weak and sick people. A little money would bankrupt my family. Who would have thought that she would ride in a carriage in just a few days! I asked people and found out that it was the best carriage in our town! It's a pity for my little brother——"

In the dim light, Niu Er's wife paused, rolled her eyes, clapped her hands and shouted, "How did I come up with this idea?!"

"What method?" Niu Erlang looked at her like a crazy woman, "What evil idea are you planning?"

Niu Er's wife came close to his ear with a malicious look on her face and chattered. Niu Erlang's eyes lit up immediately, but his timid nature made him hesitate and ask, "Can it be done?"

"It will definitely work!" Niu Er's wife patted her chest and said confidently: "If she had seen my little brother, she would definitely clamor to marry him!"

Niu Erlang thought about the fat and short figure and couldn't help but doubt his wife's vision, but then he thought again that his wife always had her own ideas. If she liked a strong man like him and gave him a room, she shouldn't be bad.

Niu Er's wife didn't know how confident he was in his heart, and was excitedly talking about her future hopes: "My little brother always listens to me at my mother's house. After that damn girl gets married, I will let her take the carriage for us, and we will go for a stroll in the town!"

When Niu Erlang thought about how majestic he would be sitting in the carriage and how envious his elder brother and his younger brother's family would be, he immediately stopped hesitating and kept saying, "Then go and arrange it! It would be best if they can settle it tomorrow and get married the day after tomorrow!"

Niu Er's wife responded cheerfully: "I will go back to my parents' home tomorrow, and let them meet in the afternoon at the latest. We can ride in a carriage the day after tomorrow and have good food and drink."

The two fell asleep together with fantasies of a beautiful future, and even their dreams were of them riding in a carriage through the city.

Early the next morning.

The Gu family was the first to scream, breaking the silence of the village at dawn.

It was Xier's scream.

Aunt Gu rushed out from the kitchen: "What's wrong, Xier? What's wrong?"

Not far away, Wei Wu, who was sleeping on a big banyan tree, suddenly woke up, rubbed his sleepy eyes, and fell to the ground from under the tree.

He stared at the little girl who had just reached his thighs, and asked like Aunt Gu in the room, "What's wrong?"

Xier pointed at the red blood on the ground, her eyes full of fear: "Blood, brother's blood, there is blood on the ground."

There was a lot of blood standing by the gate of the Gu family compound, drop by drop, and there seemed to be bloodstains on the door as well. No wonder Xier, who was playing, was scared.

Aunt Gu quickly picked her up and blew air into her palms, rubbing it on her forehead and her face: "Xi'er, don't be afraid. Grandma is here. Come home with Grandma. Xi'er, come home with Grandma. Don't be afraid..."

Repeat this process three times.

Wei Wu looked at the two of them in surprise. After Aunt Gu calmed Xier, who was in tears, he said, "It's human blood."

Aunt Gu was a woman in her forties. She was not frightened by the blood on the ground, but was frightened by his plain words: "Human, human blood?"

She looked around with trembling eyes, fearing that someone was lying dead in Gu's house. When she saw bloodstains on the carriage frame, she widened her eyes and asked in a low voice: "Is there anyone in the carriage?"

Coincidentally, Gu Qinghe was helped out by Chang'an. She looked over there and asked Wei Wu who was on guard.

Wei Wu walked straight to the carriage under their gaze, lifted the curtain of the carriage, and said to Gu Qinghe: "It's someone I know."

Gu Qinghe looked inside.

There were two figures huddled together in the carriage, looking at them with trembling eyes.

It was the little beggar wearing the same clothes he had worn yesterday.

Gu Qinghe recognized the older boy at a glance. His hands were covered in dried blood, and his ragged old clothes were stained with grass and mud. The child next to him was relatively neat. The two of them seemed to be afraid of dirtying the fluffy blanket on the carriage, so they just leaned against the edges of the carriage.

The little beggar carefully led his brother out of the car and bowed deeply to the people to express his apology.

Last night, he took advantage of the curfew and ran out with his younger brother. When Qianlai Restaurant launched its new dish, crucian carp, he was outside the door that day. He knew everything that happened after the county magistrate got food poisoning, including asking the woman in front of him where she lived.

He heard her say Lotus Village, but when he happened to catch a glimpse of her at the entrance of the town yesterday morning, he discovered that she was coming from the junction of Chui Liu Village and Rong Shu Village.

With the impulse of taking a gamble, he led his brother in this direction. The road was dark at night, and he fell many times on the way before he led his brother to the fork in the road.

There were many large stones at the fork in the road, and as expected, they fell again. Cao'er, who was protected by him, touched the wheel marks on the ground and held back her tears. She pulled the little beggar who was deafened by the blood and said, "Brother, brother, these are the marks of a carriage. We are on the right way!"
