Chapter 749: Is That Niu Dan?
Editor: Henyee Translations
Gu Yundong could not help but feel emotional. No wonder people said that the poor studied books while the rich practiced martial arts. It was not easy for people without any capital to learn martial arts.
She bought a hundred arrows in one go. It was a little heavy, so she asked the shopkeeper to help move them into the carriage.
Unexpectedly, just as she turned to leave, she saw Shao Qingyuan standing at the door in a daze.
Her eyes lit up and she ran to him with her bow. “Why are you here?”
“Why… did you buy the bow and arrows?” Shao Qingyuan’s voice was low as he asked uncertainly.
Gu Yundong’s eyes curved into crescents. “Of course they’re for you.” She handed the bow in her hand to him and went back to get the quiver.
The shopkeeper at the side shouted, “Hey, Miss, you already have someone to help carry it. I’m old, so I won’t go.”
Gu Yundong glared at him. “Shopkeeper, I bought so many things, but you didn’t even carry them for me. This is not how this business works.”
Then, she took her quiver and walked to the door to push Shao Qingyuan out. “Let’s go, we’ll just take this.”
The shopkeeper felt that this person… was too shameless. She bullied the old man and he regretted giving her those five arrows for free.
But he had no choice. He could only follow with the remaining arrows.
After the three of them carried the bow and arrows into the carriage, Gu Yundong thanked the shopkeeper.
The shopkeeper snorted and turned to leave.
Gu Yundong shook her head. “I’m the only one who doesn’t mind. Otherwise, with this attitude, it would be strange if the shop could continue operating. Isn’t that right, Brother Shao?”
As she spoke, she turned around and saw Shao Qingyuan’s lips curl up as if he was very happy.
“What’s wrong with you?”
Gu Yundong waved her hand in front of him, but Shao Qingyuan grabbed her wrist.
Gu Yundong was stunned. She quickly looked around and pulled her hand out. “We’re on the streets.” This person was getting bolder.
Shao Qingyuan said, “I have a bow and arrows. Why are you giving these to me?”
“Your bow and arrows have been used for a long time. Last time, I said that I would give you my crossbow, but you refused. The bow and arrows are the treasure of that shop. I tested the feel of it. It’s not bad. How did you feel when you held it just now?”
“…Very good.” Every gift from her was great.
Gu Yundong was relieved. Seeing that his gaze was becoming more and more passionate, he hurriedly coughed and said, “I haven’t bought my kite yet. I’ll go buy a kite.”
Before she could finish speaking, she quickly fled.
Shao Qingyuan looked at her back view, his heart warm. He looked at the bow and clenched it tightly.
When Gu Yundong returned, she was holding four kites.
There were four kites and four patterns, but the colors were a little monotonous. Gu Yundong wondered if she should go back and paint them by herself.
At this moment, her expression was much better. She carried the kites and got into the carriage. “Let’s go back.”
The corners of Shao Qingyuan’s mouth curled up slightly. He didn’t look at her anymore.
The carriage drove towards the entrance of the town again. Gu Yundong heaved a sigh of relief. When the kites were put down, she lifted the curtain and looked outside.
Although the town was not comparable to the county, it was still very lively.
But very quickly, this liveliness was heard by Gu Yundong along with this discordant voice.
She turned her head slightly and frowned. She quickly said to Shao Qingyuan, “Brother Shao, stop the carriage first.”
As soon as the carriage stopped, Gu Yundong quickly lifted the curtain and pointed at a figure not far away. “Is that Niu Dan?”
