324 Those Who Don’t Say Thank You Were All Baddies!
With someone taking the lead, the commoners all started seething.
“That’s right! Our hearts ache to see how badly you guys are injured! You guys are also made of flesh and blood. These are the eggs that my hen laid. I’ll give them all to you!”
“Young Master Ye, General Bai often took care of us in the past. When he saw me falling previously, he even sent him home. Take this piece of pork.”
The commoners all started talking and getting close, placing all their gifts onto the carts.
Ye Siming frowned and said, “There’s no need for the gifts. I can’t hold them.”
“Aren’t we putting them on the carts? It’s not like we’re getting you to hold them! This child! Auntie will give you two slabs of big bones. You must still be growing. Go back and make soup to drink with it!” An auntie said generously.
Gu Nuo’er grabbed Ye Siming’s clothes with her small hands and turned her head in his arms, looking at these people with her bright eyes that had been washed by tears.
In the end, the citizens became enthusiastic and actually started to help push the carts.
They said that they wanted to push the carts to the imperial city’s entrance!
Fortunately, Zhang Sui quickly led a group of imperial guards over. The soldiers cleared the way with gongs, and the commoners left the matter in their hands, feeling assured.
Madam Bai, who had rushed over after hearing the news, arrived with the imperial guards.
“Siming!” Madam Bai called out in panic and ran over quickly.
Seeing him carrying the unconscious Bai Yi, Madam Bai’s eyes immediately turned red.
She patted Bai Yi’s shoulder a few times and complained with heartache, “You’ve been to the battlefields before, yet you’re still injured by mountain bandits to this extent. How embarrassing!”
Ye Siming explained calmly, “They were ambushed. In order to save Song Qiyuan, he was slashed a few times.”
Madam Bai looked at the young master from the Song Family who was still unconscious on the cart at the side.
She gritted her teeth. “This young boy doesn’t have the ability and only knows how to cause trouble!”
Madam Bai wanted to scold him a little more, but from the corner of her eye, she suddenly felt a pair of watery and clear eyes looking at her.
Madam Bai turned around and saw Gu Nuo’er blinking her big eyes and looking into her eyes.
Madam Bai quickly said amiably, “Princess, did I scare you?”
Gu Nuo’er shook her head, her gaze clear and obedient.
“Auntie Bai~ Don’t worry, Uncle Bai is fine!” She had just diverted her attention to check. Bai Yi only had superficial wounds and had bled a lot. His main meridians were not injured.
He would definitely get better after resting for a few days.
Madam Bai sighed. “Thank you for your kind words, Princess.”
The imperial guards locked up these mountain bandits in the underground prison and waited for the emperor’s imperial edict.
The injured soldiers were sent to Bai Yi’s military camp. The palace sent two imperial physicians to take turns treating them.
Gu Nuo’er’s third brother, Gu Ziyao, came along with the imperial physicians.
He claimed to be a benevolent doctor and insisted on helping.
The Song Family sent someone to pick up the seriously injured Song Qiyuan.
Even though Bai Yi had saved his life, the Song Family didn’t say a word of thanks to Madam Bai.
Gu Nuo’er wrinkled her small nose at the Song Family’s back and let out a soft snort. “Hmph!”
Those who didn’t say thank you were all baddies!
She turned her head and said with her pink lips, “Auntie Bai, come with me and send Uncle Bai to the palace. I’ll get my father to find someone to treat his injuries!”
Before Madam Bai could say anything, Bai Yi slowly woke up and heard their conversation.
He said in a weak and hoarse voice, “Your Highness, there’s no need… Mine are just small injuries. See if Siming is alright…”
Ye Siming carried him and sneered. “Looks like your injuries aren’t serious indeed. You still have time to care about others. I’m fine. Don’t worry and go to sleep.”
Only then did Bai Yi lower his head and faint.
