This young lady's voice is very pleasant to the ear. At first glance, she sounds like an oriole.
Guan Maochun couldn't help but was slightly startled. He was actually attracted and wanted to hear this voice again.
Soon, the curtain of the carriage was opened, and a young woman dressed as a maid poked her head out and looked at Ge Hong and Guan Maochun warily.
The maid looks ordinary. There is a slightly larger black mole above her right eyebrow, which looks a bit annoying. She must be Xiao Huan.
After looking at Ge Hong and Guan Maochun, the maid looked up at the three people in front of them who were tying up the bandits. Then she lowered her head and looked around and at her feet, as if she was looking for something.
Ge Hong understood it as soon as he saw it, and immediately said to Guan Maochun: "Lao Wu, go and pick up the stool..."
The stool is a small square stool used for stepping on, making it easier for people to get on horses or cars.
"But brother..."
Guan Maochun was worried about Ge Hong's injury and didn't want anyone around him.
"I'm fine, go quickly!" Ge Hong urged, giving him a gentle push.
"Oh." Guan Maochun had no choice but to agree. He looked around and found a stool not far away.
Guan Maochun quickly ran to pick up the stool, put it under the car door, and then returned to Ge Hong's side.
This small detail made the two women in the carriage instantly feel at ease. Although they didn't know whether they were good or bad, at least they were still polite.
"Xiaohuan, go down!" The young lady's oriole-like voice appeared again.
Guan Maochun only felt that the sound was pleasant and comforting, and his heartbeat could not help but speed up.
However, he did not dare to let Ge Hong find out, so he quickly calmed down and stopped his reverie.
Xiaohuan stepped on the stool and got out of the car first, then turned around and stretched out his hand to help the young lady behind, while saying with concern: "Miss, please be careful..."
"Yes." The lady responded softly.
Then, half of the young lady's body leaned out of the carriage. With the help of Xiaohuan, she got out of the car and stood in front of Ge Hong and Guan Maochun.
The young lady was wearing a light green dress. Judging from her appearance, she was about twenty years old. She had a rosy oval face and very delicate facial features.
The moment Guan Maochun saw the young lady's appearance, his eyes suddenly brightened up. This was his first close contact with such a rich lady, and his heartbeat suddenly became faster than before.
Xiaohuan immediately noticed the change in Guan Maochun's expression, and immediately stood in front of the lady quietly, blocking Guan Maochun's sight.
Guan Maochun's face suddenly became hot, and he avoided his eyes in embarrassment.
Ge Hong bowed his hands and said, "What do you call Miss?"
Xiaohuan immediately called the family: "My father's surname is Situ, and he is the magistrate of Ganquan County!"
Ge Hong was slightly surprised, but his expression remained as usual and he said politely: "It turns out to be Miss Situ."
Guan Maochun didn't know why, but when he heard that she was the daughter of the county magistrate, his heart dropped for no reason, and there was a look of disappointment in his eyes.
Miss Situ took a step forward and said with a slight blessing: "Several heroes came to the rescue today. Situ Jing is very grateful!"
It turned out that her name was Situ Jing. Guan Maochun recited the name silently over and over again, thinking that the word "Jing" fit her appearance very well.
Ge Hong then asked: "May I ask Miss Situ, are you rushing to Ganquan County?"
Situ Jing nodded gracefully and replied: "Exactly!"
Xiaohuan pulled the lady's elbow nervously and whispered: "Miss, don't be so honest!"
Situ Jing frowned and said, "Xiao Huan, these heroes saved us from the bandits. How can you say such a thing?"
When Xiaohuan was scolded by Situ Jing, her face immediately turned red and she lowered her head.
Situ Jing asked politely: "May I ask the names of the two heroes?"
Ge Hong said: "What is a hero? Miss Situ just calls me Boss Ge. He is Guan Laowu..."
In the distance, Cheng Jiu and the others have tied up several bandits...
Cheng Jiu watched Ge Hong and Situ Jing chatting from a distance, and said to Fatty Lai: "Fatty, look at that rich lady, she's pretty!"
Fatty Lai shook his head and said in disgust: "Too thin, I don't like it..."
Cheng Jiu grinned and said, "Too thin? Do you have to look like a sow to like me?"
Fatty Lai said no to Cheng Jiu and said, "Anyway, I don't like being so thin."
"Second brother, what do you think?" Cheng Jiu asked Yu Tie.
Yu Tie stopped and turned to take a look, smiled and nodded, which meant that he liked it quite a lot.
Cheng Jiu joked: "Second brother, would you like to give her to you as your wife?"
Yu Tie immediately smiled sheepishly and waved his hand, probably to say stop talking nonsense.
On the other side, the conversation between Ge Hong and Situ Jing had ended. The two sides didn't know what they said. After Situ Jing and Xiao Huan saluted Ge Hong, they re-entered the carriage compartment.
Ge Hong turned around and called out to Cheng Jiu and the others, who immediately carried the prisoner and walked over.
"Let's bury these dead guards first," Ge Hong said.
Cheng Jiu immediately became unhappy: "Brother, is this necessary? We are not related to them..."
"It's necessary, it must be buried!" Ge Hong said seriously.
"Yes, yes, yes, listen to big brother!" Cheng Jiu didn't know what Ge Hong was planning, but he still agreed, grabbed Fatty Lai and walked away.
Yu Tie turned around to follow, but was stopped by Ge Hong: "Second brother, please stay, don't scare the horse, protect them..."
Yu Tie nodded without hesitation and walked towards the horse.
Then, Ge Hong said to Guan Maochun: "Maochun, help me over..."
Guan Maochun actually wanted to stay and guard the carriage with Yu Tie, but he had to listen to Ge Hong's words.
When Guan Maochun helped Ge Hong to the woods by the roadside, Cheng Jiu was using a hatchet as a shovel, digging a hole in the soil with great effort, while Fatty Lai was responsible for getting the bodies of the five guards here one by one.
Seeing Ge Hong coming, he straightened up and asked, "Brother, who is that girl?"
Ge Hong said calmly: "She is Situ Jing, the daughter of Situ Zhou, the magistrate of Ganquan County!"
"Ah?" Cheng Jiu looked surprised: "Miss Guanjia!"
Ge Hong nodded calmly.
Cheng Jiu thought for a while, then continued digging, and said, "Brother, you have to tell us what you are planning!"
Ge Hong said: "Isn't this what I want to tell you..."
After a pause, Ge Hong continued: "I plan to escort Miss Situ to Ganquan County!"
Guan Maochun became happy when he heard this, and immediately nodded and said: "Okay!"
Guan Maochun's look made Cheng Jiu frown. He stared at Guan Maochun and said, "Lao Wu, why are you so excited? She is a lady from an official family and is not from the same family as us!"
After Cheng Jiu saw through his thoughts, Guan Maochun immediately turned red and said in embarrassment: "Fourth brother, you... what are you talking about?"
Cheng Jiu was too lazy to discuss women's issues with Guan Maochun at the moment. He was more concerned about the future of the five members of the Warrior Gang.
"I understand, brother, you want to send this young lady back so that her father, who is the county magistrate, owes us a favor, right?" Cheng Jiu asked.
Ge Hong nodded and said: "That's right! Fourth brother, it's not an option for us to rush on our way in hiding. Now that Miss Situ's bodyguards are all dead, the five of us can just take over and wait until Miss Situ arrives at Ganquan smoothly.
County, we have the favor of Magistrate Situ, so we still worry about not being able to settle down when the time comes?"
Guan Maochun agreed: "Fourth brother, the eldest brother is right. If we act as Miss Situ's bodyguard all the way, no one will be suspicious of us!"
Cheng Jiu thought for a moment and felt that this was feasible, so he agreed: "Okay, then I will be his mother's guard for a while!"
In the carriage, Xiao Huan was secretly peeking out through the gap in the curtain...
After a while, Xiaohuan returned to Situ Jing and said softly: "Miss, they are almost ready..."
Situ Jing nodded and sighed sadly: "It's all my fault for insisting on going to daddy's place, otherwise they wouldn't..."
"Miss, it's already like this, don't be sad..." Xiaohuan said.
Situ Jing made up his mind and said, "When I see my father, I will definitely ask him to take good care of their family!"
Xiao Huan immediately nodded vigorously.
After a while, Xiao Huan came close to Situ Jing's ear and said worriedly: "Miss, these five people...could they also be rogue bandits?"
"Nonsense!" Situ Jing glared at Xiaohuan: "If they were also rogues, would they still save us and help us bury our dead guards?"
Xiaohuan lowered his head and muttered: "But Miss, look at how ragged they are. They look too much like those gangsters just now..."
