Gu Yi was stunned for a moment by Song Si’s bellowing question, then turned around and ran.
Song Si chased out, “Stop right there!”
Not only did Gu Yi not stand still, but he ran even faster.
He ran to the side of the carriage, and didn’t even use the horse stool, he held down the board with both hands and scampered halfway up the carriage, panicking and ordering the coachman, “Go, go!”
Xiao Si was not so nimble, seeing that the carriage was about to leave, he shouted, “Young master, wait for me.”
Young master?
Song Si stopped in his tracks and Song Wan Yue came out when she heard the commotion, just in time to see the distant carriage, and immediately understood what was going on, but still pretended not to know anything and asked, “Big brother, what’s wrong?”
Song Si withdrew his gaze and turned around, “Nothing.”
Song Wangyue let out an oh and didn’t ask any more questions, following him back into the courtyard.
“Big brother is going out for a while, when I leave, you bar the main door and don’t come out to open it no matter what the commotion is.”
“What is big brother going to do? I’m going with you.”
Guessing that he might be going to the Gu family, Song Wangyue pleaded.
“Behave, big brother will be back in a while.”
“Alright then.”
Song Si went to set up the bullock cart and drove it out, turning back to watch Song Wan Yue close the gate and bolt it before driving it to the Gu family.
The Gu family wanted to marry her after she had saved Gu Yi’s life, so this was already an act of revenge.
The youngest sister was at home today, but if he wasn’t, what if she came out to see Gu Yi and was seen by the village people? Is it the Gu family’s intention to let the village people see them so that they can take advantage of the opportunity to spread some rumours and force Little Sister to marry Gu Yi?
Even if they don’t have such an idea, what if little sister is coaxed away? What if she was deceived?
The more Song Si thought about it, the worse her face looked.
By the time he reached the front of the Gu family residence, his face was so dark that water could drip out of it.
He stopped the cart, tied it up and, without restraining his expression, walked straight to the gate and said to the gatekeeper, “Inform your master that Song Si is here to see you.”
Song Si, of Miss Song’s family?
The gatekeeper’s attitude was unprecedentedly warm, and he didn’t make him wait, but took the man in directly.
The butler took the man to the parlour, “Young Master Song wait a moment, I’ll go and tell the master right away.”
Gu Yi was sitting in the flower hall with a head full of sweat and kept patting his small chest, “I was scared to death, I was scared to death.”
Mrs. Gu wiped his sweat and was worried, “Go and call the doctor, let him come and help young master.”
“What are you looking at, I blame him too, what’s the point of going to Miss Song for nothing?”
“I’m not to blame ……”
Gu Yi perked up, “I threw a stone’s first, who knew that man didn’t make a sound and came straight out, if he had made a sound, wouldn’t I have run away earlier?”
Master Gu,……
“Since we promised to give the Song family a three-month deadline, we can’t back out.”
“I didn’t say I was backtracking, I just went to go play with my little girl, not only did I go yesterday, I went today, I’m still going tomorrow!”
“You, you went yesterday too?”
“Yes, I even took the little girl to the doctor’s and got her some nourishing medicine. You don’t know, there was an old woman who tried to harm her and threw dog’s blood all over her, she was terrified and had to take a lot of nourishing medicine to get well.”
Master Gu, ……
sighed, knowing that his son was stupid, not knowing that he was this stupid.
The first thing you need to do is to let them grab the nourishing medicine that Song Wan Yue needs to eat, so that they won’t be able to raise enough silver to redeem the bracelet, right? The two families will be betrothed in three months, but this silly son of his is good enough to give people nourishing pills.
“Master!”
The steward entered the flower hall with quick steps, “The young master of the Song family is here, I see that he looks bad, probably here to settle accounts with the young master.”
Gu Yi rose to his feet and with two large steps he entered the inner room, before poking a head out, “Let’s say that the person who went there today wasn’t me.”
The crowd,……
……
When Master Gu entered the parlour, Song Si stood up and saluted, “Master Gu.”
“Young Master Song Si is it, I’ve heard great things about you since I was in, have a seat, have a seat!”
Song Ming sat down again, and without exchanging pleasantries, he got straight to the point, “I have come to see Master Gu today to speak about Young Master Gu’s visit to my house to look for my little sister.”
“Ah? ……”
Master Gu was obviously “unaware” and was stunned for a moment, “Yi’er went to look for Miss Song? When did that happen? This child, he has taken my words for granted. I told him not to bother Miss Song for less than three months, why is he so disobedient!”
After saying that, he hurriedly made amends, “Young Master Song, go back and tell your family that it was my son’s fault, and when he comes back, I will definitely teach him a good lesson, and I hope your family will not be angry.”
Seeing that he didn’t look like he was faking, he must have been unaware of the incident, Song Si’s face eased a little, but he didn’t show any mercy, “Young master Gu is young and ignorant, he acted impulsively, Master Gu should have taught him more, I don’t want something like what happened today to happen again.”
“Yes, yes, yes ……”
Master Gu accompanied with a smile, “Young Master Song, please don’t worry, I will definitely discipline my youngest more in the future and won’t let him bother Miss Song again.”
“That’s the best, my little sister has been well cared for by her family since she was young, she doesn’t know the dangers of people’s hearts, just like the incident where she saved young master Gu, although she was kind, she ruined her reputation, I don’t want her to be pointed out by the village people for anything in the future.”
His words meant something, and Master Gu heard it, but pretended not to hear it, still smiling with him and following his words, “Miss Song is indeed kind-hearted, if it wasn’t for her, I’m afraid my son would have been killed, and our family is very grateful.”
As the saying goes, you can’t beat a smiling man with a hand, not to mention that Song Si is only a fourteen year old boy, so he couldn’t say anything unpleasant, and furthermore, he had left a note in the box about the bracelet, informing him in advance, so there was no room for blame. ”
Master Gu repeatedly a*sured him and personally escorted the man to the door, watching him drive the ox cart far away before turning around and going back to the flower hall.
Gu Yi was still hiding in the inner room when Master Gu coughed, “Come out.”
Gu Yi poked his head out and saw no sign of Song Si, then he came out of the inner room and sat down on a chair, putting his head in front of Madam Gu and asking her to wipe his sweat, “I was scared to death, how did he find the family?”
“I have promised Young Master Song that from now on you are not allowed to go to the Song house again.”
“No!”
Gu Yi sat upright, “It is said in the books that only with time can love be born, if I don’t go, how can the little girl develop love with me? How can she agree to be betrothed to me? I must go, I must go!”
The crowd,……
