Chapter 30: 30
Chapter 30 The Mystery of 30 Boats
An Chuxia and the others returned to Qingshi Town in the afternoon. Gu Fangmiao was originally worried and wanted to go back to her house with An Chuxia.
Finally, An Chuxia persuaded her to send her home first.
When we returned to Liushu Village, the sun was already setting in the west. As soon as the carriage arrived at the door and stopped, An Chuxia jumped out anxiously.
After getting off the bus, Runsong paid the fare and quickly followed in carrying his things.
An Chuxia directly pushed open the door of the west room, and the first thing she saw was Mu Tan sitting by the bed.
Then he moved his gaze to the bed.
An Jinchen looked weakly at An Chuxia who opened the door and walked in. His originally dull eyes suddenly turned red.
"...Xia Xia!"
The originally red lips were now covered with dry skin, and the whole person lay on the bed as weakly as if he had lost all energy and energy.
An Chuxia couldn't help but feel the sore throat. She walked slowly to the bedside, took An Jinchen's big hand, and shouted with difficulty: "Brother! How are you?"
An Jinchen held An Chuxia's hand and covered his entire face while a tear rolled down the corner of his eye.
An Chuxia couldn't help but get wet at the corners of her eyes.
An Chuxia carefully lifted the quilt with her other hand and found that he was wearing clothes, so she boldly lifted the quilt.
I saw that An Jinchen was neatly and cleanly dressed. Apart from some bruises on the exposed skin, no serious wounds were found.
An Chuxia's peach blossom eyes accidentally glanced at An Jinchen's exposed chest skin, and her eyes widened instantly.
An Jinchen found where her sister was looking, hurriedly pulled the quilt, wrapped herself tightly, and avoided looking at her again.
An Chuxia blinked her eyes and turned her head mechanically to look at Mu Tan.
Mu Tan's beautiful Ruifeng eyes also flickered with embarrassment, and finally, urged by An Chuxia's eyes, he nodded to her.
At this time, Runsong walked in carrying something. An Chuxia calmed down the surprise on her face, looked at Mutan and asked, "Brother Runsheng, where is he now? How is he injured?"
Mu Tan is a doctor, and we can be considered friends after spending such a long time together. The person who went to inform them was also found by Mu Tan.
Now it is right to ask him about the situation of An Jinchen and Runsheng.
Mu Tan returned to his usual calm demeanor, "Run Sheng is... next door right now. He was seriously injured. Fortunately, he was young and didn't injure his vitals.
Use some good medicine to take care of it, and it will recover."
Runsong was visibly relieved when he heard that Runsheng had not been injured.
"Jinchen is asleep now. I'll go next door to take a look!"
An Chuxia also stood up from the bed, "I'll go with you to see Brother Runsheng!"
Runsong and An Chuxia went to the next door and pushed the door in. They saw Runsheng leaning on the bed with a bruised nose and a swollen face.
"Brother! Xiao... Xiaoxia, why are you back?"
The two of them walked to Runsheng's bed.
Runsong felt sorry for his brother after all, so he walked over and checked him over. When he saw that most of the injuries were external injuries, he asked him what else he felt uncomfortable about.
The answer he got was similar to what Mu Tan said, and Runsong finally felt relieved.
The two brothers had been dependent on each other since childhood. Their father was killed by a wild beast while hunting. Their mother was unwilling to live with the two brothers and ran away with a salesman.
Don't look at how strict Runsong, the eldest brother, is to his younger brother Runsheng, but looking at the worry and fear in his eyes now is enough to show how deep the relationship between the two brothers is.
An Chuxia also asked Runsheng with concern, asking him if he had anything he wanted to eat or any items he needed.
Runsheng is comparable to An Chuxia's second brother. He has been here since Chuan Chuan and has always taken her to and from school.
"Xiaoxia, I want to eat meat!"
This was not a big problem, An Chuxia agreed decisively.
"Okay! I'll make it for you tonight!"
"Ha! Someone was kicked in the stomach, which hurt his spleen and stomach. He can't eat greasy meat for the time being." Mu Tan heard An Chuxia's answer as soon as he walked in, and couldn't help pouring cold water on the two of them.
"..." An Chuxia looked at Runsheng innocently and said decisively: "I didn't say anything just now!"
Runsheng looked at Mutan sadly, just like the resentful woman looking at the heartless man.
Afterwards, Runsong asked his brother about the whole story of his and An Jinchen's injuries.
An Chuxia saw that Runsheng was lying uncomfortable, so she took out a pillow from the cabinet and stuffed it behind him.
Runsheng then slowly said:
Originally, the two of them drove a bullock cart to Yunshui Wharf to sell marinated goods as usual yesterday.
In the afternoon, a very luxurious cruise ship arrived at the pier. The paintings and carvings on it were unmatched by ordinary passenger ships.
The boat docked at the pier, and a waiter in satin came down from the boat and came to the place where we sold braised pork.
He said that he would pack up and buy all the remaining braised pork. Brother Achen and I were very happy at that time.
But the man said that he had bought so much that one person could not carry it all, so he pointed at Brother Achen and asked him to help deliver it to the boat.
At that time, Brother Achen and I agreed without much thought.
Brother Achen went to deliver the braised pork, so I packed the things on the bullock cart. When he came back, we could go home.
But I waited and waited and didn't see Brother Achen come back.
I felt a little anxious, so I asked a familiar laborer to help me look after the oxcart, and then I ran to the dock to get on the boat to find Brother Achen.
As a result, I was stopped by two strong men with knives. No matter what kind words I said, they turned a deaf ear. I tried to force my way in, but they pushed me to the ground.
When Runsheng said this, he looked at An Chuxia with some embarrassment, "Xiaoxia, I really tried hard, but...but I couldn't beat them!
After that, I had no choice but to squat by the boat and wait for Brother Achen."
How could An Chuxia blame him for such a thing?
"Brother Runsheng, I can't blame you!"
Runsheng saw only concern on An Chuxia's face, so he continued: I can't get on the boat, so I'll just wait there.
About an hour later, I saw two people carrying the unconscious Brother Achen off the boat.
I hurriedly ran over, and the two men released Brother Achen into my arms, turned around and returned to the boat without saying a word.
I watched the boat leave the dock, but I couldn't do anything and didn't know what happened.
After watching the boat leave, I checked Brother Achen's body and found that he was not injured. I only found little red marks and scratches on his body.
"cough"
"…cough!"
An Chuxia and Mu Tan coughed uncomfortably at the same time.
"Brother Runsheng, why are you so injured?" An Chuxia asked in confusion.
At this point, Runsheng's face was full of anger, "The injuries on my body were not caused by the people on that ship.
But the son of landowner Wang, Wang Fugui, and his servants blocked the road that Brother Achen and I must pass every day.
When he saw us, he couldn't help but come up and beat him. When he saw Brother Achen unconscious in the car, he only pulled him out of the car. I am afraid that he was afraid of losing his life, so he didn't dare to beat him again.
The servants beat me up severely and then left with Wang Fugui."
