Chapter 374 The child who doesn't cry gets no candy
Wu Haoran's injury was just as Pei Yi said, his bones were broken. After the doctor fixed his bones, he wrapped a white cloth around his head, and he looked a little weak.
Not only that, he also showed symptoms of concussion and could only lie down in the clinic to rest for a while.
Although Wu Haoran looked depressed, he still had a very good attitude and said to the three children, "Compared to Senior Brother Kong and Senior Brother Nalan, I am already lucky enough."
Three little ones:......
Pei Yi said speechlessly, "Brother Wu, you better shut up!"
"I have sent someone to deliver a letter to the Marquis of Wu'an's mansion. Mr. Wu San, please wait a moment. Someone will come to take you home." Liu Zhenying said.
Xiao Yining offered his snack and placed it next to Wu Haoran's head. "Godfather, if you are hungry, take it and eat it."
This time Wu Haoran didn't blush, he just said, "Thank you very much, you are so thoughtful. It's getting late, let's go back, I have nothing to do."
After saying this, he frowned and closed his eyes to rest.
The three kids walked to the door and looked at each other. Although this person said so, they were inexplicably worried if he were to leave.
But it is true that it is getting late. It is already three quarters past four in the morning and we can have lunch soon.
Pei Yi lowered his head and thought for a moment, then whispered to Liu Zhenying, "Miss Liu, you should go back first, so that Master Liu won't worry. Sister Qing and I will stay here and wait for Senior Brother Wu to pick us up. Sister Qing will go to the girls' school tomorrow to talk to you about the follow-up matters."
Although the three of them told the adults at home that they would only stay outside for half a day, Liu Zhenying was now under increasingly strict discipline. If she came back late, she would probably be scolded.
Liu Zhenying stared at the two of them, and when she saw the little boy nod to her, she had no choice but to agree.
At this time, there was a loud sound of horse hooves outside the clinic, and at the same time, there was a dissatisfied voice, "Dad, I'm going to see what my third brother is up to."
Upon hearing this, the three children looked over quickly and saw the carriage of the Marquis of Wu'an parked in front of the clinic. There were more than a dozen guards in black uniforms surrounding the carriage.
The person who was speaking was somewhat similar to Wu Haoran, but he looked quite fierce, with sharp eyebrows, cold eyes, and tightly pursed lips, giving people a cold and unapproachable look.
After he bent slightly and said this to Marquis Wu'an in the carriage, he stretched out his long legs, dismounted gracefully and swiftly, glanced indifferently at the three children standing at the door of the clinic, and strode into the clinic with the whip in his hand.
Seeing this, Liu Zhenying did not leave, but pulled Xiao Yining to the front of the carriage, bowed, and said respectfully: "Liu Zhenying, the daughter of Liu Yang, pays homage to the Marquis of Wu'an."
Xiao Yining also quickly followed up and said, "Greetings to Marquis Wu'an."
Wu Anhou sat in the car, glancing at the two people with a solemn expression, and finally set his eyes on Liu Zhenying, and said in a cold tone: "It turned out to be you, thank you for delivering the letter for my shameful and unfilial son."
Then, he looked at Pei Yi behind them, narrowed his eyes, and said in a somewhat unfriendly tone: "Pei Dafu's adopted son?"
"Greetings, Marquis Wu'an." Pei Yi also bowed and greeted.
Wu Anhou obviously had a very bad impression of Pei Yi. He snorted and said sarcastically, "It's okay to move today."
After saying this, he lowered the curtain and ignored the three children.
Pei Yi touched his nose and smiled indifferently.
At this time, Wu Haoran, who was resting, hung his head and followed the man who had just entered the clinic out.
The man walked to the front of the carriage and reported to Wu Anhou through the curtain, "Dad, my third brother went to Jingguzhai to buy a brush and accidentally fell down the stairs. His arm was broken and his head was injured."
As soon as these words fell, an angry shout came from inside the car, "You are such a useless thing, why don't you get in the car quickly? How long do you want to embarrass yourself here?"
"Yes, Dad." Wu Haoran had completely lost the calm look he had just had in front of the three little ones, and became more like a bullied young wife.
Liu Zhenying seemed to be used to it and kept her head down as if nothing was wrong.
Pei Yi and Xiao Yining looked at each other, both surprised that this man, already an adult, was still so cowardly that he didn't even dare to raise his head in front of his own father.
Although his father looks quite fierce.
Xiao Yining couldn't help but say, "Uncle, this guy is a liar."
She pointed at the man who looked like the second son of Marquis Wu'an and continued in a baby voice, "It was someone else who fell and crushed Master Wu San, causing him to be injured. He lied to his father."
Pei Yi stepped forward and covered the kid's mouth, and gently taught him, "Qing Jie, don't tell the truth at this time, lest others hear it. As the saying goes, family disgrace should not be made public."
Wu Shaoming: …
Marquis Wu'an: ...
Seeing this, Wu Haoran hurriedly explained awkwardly, "Ms. Lin, my second brother and I said this, and my second brother was not wrong."
Xiao Yining easily broke free from his fellow villager's hand and stared at him worriedly, "Mr. Wu San, have you hit your head and become stupid? If your memory is so bad, how are you going to take the imperial examination?"
Wu Haoran: …
Pei Yi reluctantly took over the conversation and advised, "Brother Wu, go back and rest quickly. The doctor said you need to stay in bed for the next few days to avoid forgetting anything."
Marquis Wu'an glanced coldly at the two children, then looked at his cowardly Third Son with displeasure.
Wu Haoran didn't waste any time. He smiled humbly at the three kids and got on Marquis Wu'an's carriage.
Wu Shaoming got back on the horse, gave the three little ones a last meaningful look, then pulled the reins tightly, turned the horse's head, and shouted loudly: "Go back home!"
The group disappeared into the street like a gust of wind.
Liu Zhenying, who had been silent until now, breathed a sigh of relief.
She looked at little Yining, patted her chest, and said with a lingering fear in her voice, "Sister Yining, you are really brave. My father said that Wu'an Hou is very cruel. If you provoke him, he dares to kill people in front of the emperor. The emperor will not say a word to him."
Xiao Yining: ..., then the person he killed must be the person that her uncle wanted to kill. After all, her uncle was not a cowardly emperor.
The little kid shook his head and corrected her seriously, "Sister Liu, I'm really timid, otherwise I would have called you godfather a long time ago."
These words left Liu Zhenying speechless. She looked at the little girl helplessly, waved goodbye to her, and turned away.
Ah Da also stopped the carriage in front of his master at the right time.
Pei Yi gently picked up the baby and prepared to get into the carriage with her.
Just at this moment, a crisp tapping sound was heard from the carriage, and at the same time, a few drops of water fell on the faces of the two little ones.
Little Yining wiped the rain off his face, looked up at the sun, and said in surprise, "Uncle, it's raining!"
Pei Yi quickly stuffed the kid into the car and joked, "It seems that it's not just Senior Brother Wu who's unlucky today. We're all going to be soaked to the skin soon."
Little Yining nodded, and listening to the sound of rain on the roof, she couldn't help but worry, "I don't know how mom is doing in Guoan Temple, don't let her get wet in the rain."
As she spoke, she looked outside the car. The rain was getting heavier and heavier, almost like a downpour.
Today was another day she missed the weather forecast.
Inside Guoan Temple
Wan Niang and Madam Liu looked at each other and smiled bitterly, their bodies also half soaked.
The young monk led the two ladies into a clean and tidy room, then left with his hands folded.
Mrs. Liu looked at the heavy rain outside and said helplessly, "It seems we have to go back later."
As soon as he finished speaking, the voice of the young monk was heard outside, "Mrs. Park, please come this way. This room is still empty."
Then a familiar figure came into her eyes.
Mrs. Liu curled her lips slightly and watched the man leave.
Wan Niang looked at this familiar figure and a dark light flashed in her eyes.
