Transmigrated into the fat wife of the future prime minister

Chapter 182 Going Home
Huang Boyang first went to check on Zhou Yuanjia, then turned around and lifted Gu Yunyi's curtain to look inside. Seeing that neither of them was in any discomfort, he breathed a sigh of relief.

Looking at Gu Yunyi lying there, she smiled and said, "I was thinking that when we met again, I would see you in all your glory, but I never imagined you would be so destitute."

Gu Yunyi shook his head and gave a bitter smile: "Life is unpredictable. I didn't expect that person to choose to make their move after this meeting. Speaking of which, if it weren't for Brother Zhou being here this time, Mengniang..."

In fact, Gu Yunyi had been on guard ever since the prefectural examination, but as time went on, he would inevitably let his guard down.

It was truly unexpected that this County Lieutenant Liu could be so patient; this patience led to such a huge event.

Gu Yunyi could only accept his bad luck, and at the same time, he realized his own shortcomings. It was because of this that Zhou Yuanjia was involved and he was injured as a result.

Gu Yunyi's expression was serious. He was not some kind of Zhuge Liang, nor could he predict everything. If he encountered such a situation again in the future...
What should he do? How can he protect his wife, his children, and his family?

This time it was because Zhou Yuanjia was with them, but what if something happens again later? Could there be another Zhou Yuanjia?
Seeing his serious expression, Huang Boyang assumed he was upset and quickly comforted him, "Don't worry, as soon as this happened, County Magistrate Liu was taken away. People from the prefectural city personally escorted him. My father also took this opportunity to thoroughly clean up Quan County. This kind of thing will definitely not happen again in the future. Besides, Brother Zhou, don't think too much. Would you abandon him if something happened to him? Isn't that what friends do? With his personality, once he recovers, let him come to your house for a few more meals. That's better than anything else. Of course, there's me too, hahahaha."

Gu Yunyi sighed and said with a smile, "In the end, was it for Brother Zhou's sake, or was it what you wanted to say? But I still have to thank Brother Huang and Lord Huang."

"We're like family, no need for formalities, I'm happy to get a free meal."

Xu Qingmeng said with a smile, "What's the big deal? Whenever Young Master Huang and Young Master Zhou want to eat, they can just come to our house."

"Then I'll thank you on behalf of Brother Zhou and his wife. Brother Gu, please don't think Brother Zhou and I are shameless."

After exchanging a few jokes, Huang Boyang went to the front and climbed onto the carriage.

Zhou Yuanjia was in the last carriage, and Huang Boyang had assigned a servant to accompany him, so there was no need to worry.

Xu Qingmeng and Gu Yunyi were in the carriage in front. Xu Qingmeng would ask about his condition from time to time, for fear that he might be feeling unwell.

However, Huang Boyang had considered everything very carefully. The carriage was very luxurious, and the driver was also very skilled, so the journey was very smooth.

However, they still traveled rather slowly, and it was almost dark when Xu Qingmeng and the others finally entered Quan County.

Xu Qingmeng was still a little worried. Seeing Gu Yunyi and Zhou Yuanjia like this, He Shi and Zhou's mother were relieved. Fortunately, Huang Boyang said that he had already told He Shi and Zhou's mother about the matter when he came to pick them up.

Upon entering Quan County, the group first passed by the Zhou family's residence, whose gates were wide open at the time.

Zhou's mother and father waited at the door. Huang Boyang had the carriage parked in front of the Zhou family's house, and then instructed a few people to carry Zhou Yuanjia inside.

Zhou Yuanjia looked utterly hopeless and let them carry him inside.

When Zhou's mother saw that her son had to be carried back, tears immediately streamed down her face.

Zhou Yuanjia quickly said, "Mother, I'm really fine. It's just that Brother Huang is being too cautious, really."

"Young Master Huang, thank you so much for your trouble."

Xu Qingmeng then alighted from the carriage and said, "Aunt Zhou, if it weren't for your son, I'm afraid..."

“Mengniang, what are you saying? He’s a grown man, and you’re Xinting’s aunt. This is all he should do. You’re both injured, and Yunyi’s injury is even more serious than mine. Your mother is still waiting for you at home! Go back quickly.” Zhou’s mother said, wiping away her tears.

Zhou Yuanjia blushed instantly when his mother mentioned Xinting. Xu Qingmeng was a little confused when she heard Xinting's name, but after saying goodbye to Madam He who was still at home waiting for them, she got into the carriage.

Huang Boyang then sent Gu Yunyi and Xu Qingmeng back first.

When the carriage arrived at West Street, all the surrounding shops had already turned off their lights, but the Gu Family Restaurant was wide open and brightly lit.

"Young Master Huang? Have Yunyi and Mengniang returned?"

Madam He was anxiously waiting at the door when she saw a group of people approaching. She quickly called out and asked.

Huang Biyang said, "Yes, Aunt Gu."

"Finally back, thank God," said Mrs. He, hurrying to greet them.

Gu Yunyi, like Zhou Yuanjia before him, was carried in.

Gu Yunyi's expression was equally lifeless, his body stiff, letting them do as they pleased.

After learning of her son and daughter-in-law's murder, Madam He thought about many things, but she never expected that Gu Yunyi would have to be carried back.

Looking at her son, whose face was pale and whose limbs were weak, she covered her mouth and tears came out.

When Xu Qingmeng got off the carriage, she saw that Madam He was standing with her back turned, her shoulders trembling. Her heart ached, and she quickly stepped forward and said, "Mother, I'm sorry, I didn't take good care of Yunyi."

Madam He turned to her aunt, wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes, and looked at Xu Qingmeng: "Nonsense, how could it be that you didn't take good care of her? I heard from Young Master Huang that there were more than ten men with knives? How could you take care of her? By the way, are you alright? Are you injured? How is the baby? Let me see him quickly."

"Mother, I'm alright, and the child is alright too. If it weren't for Yunyi buying me time, and Brother Zhou giving me more time to escape, I'm afraid the child..."

Madam He nodded: "Silly child, you are his wife, so it is only right that he protects you. Yuanjia is a good child and a benefactor of our Gu family. We must repay him well in the future."

Xu Qingmeng nodded, then said, "Mother, let's go in and see Yunyi first."

"Yes, let's go check on Yunyi first. Where is he injured? Is he alright? Is he in any danger? I just..."

"No, the doctor in the prefectural city examined me. There's one knife wound that requires bed rest; the rest are all superficial injuries..."

Xu Qingmeng and the other person talked as they walked inside.

Inside the room, Gu Yunyi had already been settled in. Xu Qingmeng thanked everyone, and finally solemnly thanked Huang Boyang as well.

Huang Boyang simply waved his hand: "Sister-in-law, there's no need to be so polite, it's too formal."

"Oh, by the way, bring all your belongings back with you. I've already had them moved in."

Xu Qingmeng had forgotten everything. She didn't even know what happened to the carriage in the end. At that time, people were about to lose their lives. Who could care about material possessions?
