Although half of the town was destroyed, the other half was intact. The horse market was located on the edge of the river, far away from the disaster. Bei Yutang bought a new horse, took some dry food and water, and prepared to set off.
The group split up and prepared everything within an hour.
"You drive the carriage."
"Me?" Xue Qian pointed at himself.
"Yes, what's the problem?" Bei Yutang looked at him.
Xue Qian looked at the three of them. They were either women or children, and he was the only adult man. Who else could drive the carriage if not him?
But……
"I don't know how." Xue Qian lowered his head in shame.
Dai Xiang looked at him in surprise. "You're an adult, but you can't drive a carriage? What else can you do? Is the only thing you can do? Eat?"
“I, I…”
Xue Qian was so embarrassed by Dai Xiang's criticism that he finally managed to utter a few words, "I know medical skills."
Dai Xiang curled her lips and said disdainfully, "Young Master knows medicine, and Sister Mu knows it too. They also know poison techniques, do you know them?"
"No, I won't."
"You can't chop wood as fast or as well as Master Mo'er. You can't cook as well as Master Mo'er does. Even your medical skills aren't much better than Master Mo's. Look at what else you can do?!"
“I, I…”
Xue Qian felt ashamed.
Xiao Moer spoke at the right time, "Sister Daixiang, please stop talking about him. He is still young and can learn more. Give him more time, and he will definitely do well in the future."
Xue Qian was so touched that he didn't notice anything wrong at all.
Dai Xiang was different. She said directly, "He is three years old now, so it is understandable."
Xue Qian was stunned, and then he realized the problem with what Xiao Moer had just said.
Bei Yutang felt that it was enough. She was afraid that if Dai Xiang continued to attack, Xue Qian would dig a hole and bury her directly.
"Okay, everyone, get in the car."
Bei Yutang said to Xue Qian, "After we leave town, I'll teach you how to drive. From now on, the driving job will be yours."
Xue Qian nodded.
Just as the carriage was driving out of the town, suddenly, a small figure jumped out from the side of the road.
Fortunately, Bei Yutang stopped the carriage in time and prevented it from hitting him.
"Mother."
Xiao Moer hurriedly lifted the curtain and looked outside, and saw a four-year-old girl standing in front of the carriage, looking at them with big eyes.
"Little boy, why did you stop our carriage?" Bei Yutang asked softly.
The little girl didn't say anything, but took out a stuffed toy from her pocket and handed it to Bei Yutang, "Here you go."
Bei Yutang looked at the doll in her hand and asked curiously, "Why do you want to give this to me?"
The little girl said in a tender voice, "Mother said you saved us and are our benefactors. Mother also said that we should be grateful and repay kindness. This is my favorite doll, I'm giving it to you."
Seeing that she didn't answer, the little girl said sadly, "Don't you like my doll?"
Bei Yutang took the doll from her hand with a smile, "No, I like it very much."
A smile immediately appeared on the little girl's face.
"You've been waiting here all this time just to give us a stuffed animal?"
The little girl nodded.
Bei Yutang touched the little girl's skinny cheek, took out five taels of silver from his sleeve and stuffed it into her hand, "Auntie, I'll buy you some candy. Go back quickly."
The little girl looked down at the heavy silver in her hand, looked at her with her innocent eyes, and said softly, "Thank you, Auntie."
