Chapter 1679: Why Are You Here?
Editor: Henyee Translations
The bailiff standing at the back looked at it expressionlessly for a while before handing the banknote to another bailiff beside him. "Send this banknote to the Shao Residence for Young Master Shao."
"Yes, sir." The man quickly ran away.
The bailiff sneered at Yang Wenli’s back and turned to leave.
The steward found a carriage nearby. After getting Yang Wenli into it, he slowly drove towards the inn they were at.
Yang Wenli only relaxed when he got into the carriage.
However, the pain in his body reminded him of what he had encountered. His expression turned ugly. "Just you wait."
However, the steward was a little afraid. "Master, why don’t we return to Anyi County? I don’t think the Shao and Gu families care at all that we’re making a big deal out of this. Moreover, this Xuanhe Prefecture is their territory. Even the bailiffs in the government office are helping them deal with us."
"Shut up." Yang Wenli panted. He had lost two teeth, so it was especially difficult for him to speak. If one did not listen carefully, they would not be able to hear what he was saying.
"I, I’m an Elementary Scholar. So what if the bailiffs help them? They, they still have to let us go."
The steward took a long time to understand his master’s words, but he was complaining in his heart.
That’s right. The bailiffs could not do anything to the old master. They had let him out, but he had also paid 50 taels of silver.
If this happened a few more times, it would be 500 taels of silver.
For the current Yang Family, they couldn’t afford too many losses.
However, Yang Wenli was obviously angry. He probably wouldn’t listen to anything the steward said now.
The steward could only sigh, thinking that he would persuade them after they calmed down.
The carriage arrived at the inn not long after. The coachman, who had been waiting in the inn, immediately came over and helped Yang Wenli upstairs with the steward. He carefully placed him on the bed.
The steward was so tired that he was covered in sweat. He exhaled and said to the coachman, "Hurry up and find a doctor to treat Old Master’s injuries."
"Yes."
After the coachman left, the steward asked the waiter to bring a basin of hot water and closed the door.
He wet the cloth towel and wiped Yang Wenli’s face. His face was still covered in blood because of the two teeth that had fallen.
After wiping it clean, the steward turned around.
Unexpectedly, when he looked up, he saw two people suddenly appear from behind the screen.
"Ah..." He screamed and the cloth in his hand fell to the ground. He looked at Shao Qingyuan and Gu Yundong in horror.
"You, why are you guys here?"
The steward took two steps back. He was so afraid that his heel tripped over the foot on the edge of the bed and he fell back to the ground.
As soon as he sat down, Yang Wenli saw the two of them.
"What... what do you want to do?" Although Yang Wenli gritted his teeth in hatred and thought of thousands of ways to take revenge, when he really saw them, he thought of how he was beaten half to death. His entire body was in so much pain that he almost twitched.
Gu Yundong glanced at the steward. The latter immediately covered his mouth and shook his head sensibly without saying anything.
Gu Yundong smiled and locked the door.
Then, she slowly walked to the edge of the bed and stood in front of Yang Wenli.
Meeting Yang Wenli’s terrified gaze, she smiled and said, "Uncle seems to be very afraid. Don’t be afraid. I won’t hit you."
"Then why did you come?"
