Chapter 147
"What's going on here?"
Looking at the appearance of these little ones, Luo Ge was truly alarmed. She quickly checked each of them and only felt relieved after confirming that they all had superficial injuries.
Nevertheless, she still asked someone to call a Doctor, as she was not a professional. These little ones were the treasures of every family, so it was better to have a professional confirm that they were alright before putting her mind at ease.
When Yun Mu saw them return, his eyes brightened for a moment, but then he lowered his head when he saw the condition of his companions.
It was all his fault that he had dragged them all into this.
Luo Ge noticed his little gesture, looked at him, and then turned to look at Second Baby and Tie Dan.
"What happened? Can you tell Aunt about it?"
Upon hearing this, Second Baby opened his mouth but then looked at his brother and stopped himself from saying anything after all.
Later, Luo Ge and the others learned the details from Tie Dan and the others.
Apparently, it was the children from their fellow student's home village. They harbored resentment towards Yun Mu because of his outstanding performance at the study hall.
So they took the opportunity when the children were leaving the study hall and pretended that their village companions had been injured to lure Yun Mu out, and then attacked him.
Second Baby, Tie Dan, and the other village children heard the commotion and rushed over, resulting in a fight and everyone getting hurt.
"But they didn't have it easy either. I bit them really hard," Tie Dan said proudly.
Upon hearing this, the other village children quickly chimed in, "He'll bite them again if they dare to come back!"
"That's right, they dared to bully someone from our village, so they got what they deserved."
"Yes, yes!"
"Ah, I feel like I didn't perform well today."
"I feel the same way. Next time they come, I'll definitely perform better."
"Me too!"
Hearing their little companions' words, Older Baby, Second Baby, and Tie Dan coughed a few times.
But the little ones clearly didn't understand their meaning and remained excited.
"Next time they come, I'll bring our Big Yellow Dog to scare them into tears!"
"Then I'll bring my family's big rooster. It's really painful when it pecks you! Last time it pecked my butt, and it hurt for a long time!"
Looking at these little ones and their excited appearance, and then at the three little guys with their black lines, Luo Ge and Gu Jinchen felt both helpless and amused, but also a sense of warmth for the three little ones.
In the past, the three of them used to play together all the time without any other companions.
Now they had finally formed a group and could even get the support of others. This was indeed something for the three of them to feel gratified about.
Thinking of this, Luo Ge smiled at the little ones.
"This time, Aunt is very grateful that you all came to help Yun Mu and Yun Yi. Helping your companions and supporting your fellow villagers shows that you are all good children."
Hearing Luo Ge's words, each little one grinned shyly.
"Ahem, but fighting is still wrong. If you get hurt, your families will worry about you."
"And if you think about it from another perspective, if your parents were the ones who got hurt, wouldn't you also be very worried?"
Listening to Luo Ge's gentle words, the group of little ones looked at each other, and then silently nodded their heads.
They then unconsciously glanced at their own injuries, imagining how they would feel if their fathers and mothers were bullied and injured like this.
As they thought about it, they all frowned.
If they saw their fathers and mothers being bullied and injured like this, they would indeed feel uneasy in their hearts.
Realizing this, one by one, they obediently nodded their heads.
"Thank you, Aunt Gu. We understand."
Seeing their reaction, Luo Ge smiled, "Good."
"If something like this happens again, you can ask the adults for help. Adults are very powerful and can protect you.
If anything happens, you can also talk to the adults in your family. After all, the adults in your family are your strongest support."
This was a message not only for these little ones but also for the few little ones at home.
"Okay, we understand, Aunt Gu." Hearing Luo Ge's words, the little ones nodded their heads seriously.
As for Older Baby, Second Baby, and the others, they looked at each other after witnessing this scene. Although Luo Ge's words were directed at their little companions, they all clearly understood that she was actually telling them as well.
Thinking of this, their hearts couldn't help but feel a bit heavy, a bit guilty, and a bit sad.
...At this moment, Wang Sister-In-Law and the others also rushed back with the Doctor.
"Luo Ge! The Doctor is here!"
Earlier, it was Wang Sister-In-Law whom Luo Ge had asked to call the Doctor.
These little ones felt guilty and had snuck in when they weren't paying attention.
It wasn't until Wang Sister-In-Law received the notification from Luo Ge that she became aware of the situation.
Heaven knows how worried Wang Sister-In-Law was when she saw her naughty little son, along with Older Baby, Second Baby, and this group of little ones, all covered in injuries.
"Thank you for your trouble, Sister-In-Law." Seeing Tie Dan's condition, Luo Ge felt a sense of guilt when facing Wang Sister-In-Law.
She couldn't help but turn to look at her own two little ones and sighed.
After the Doctor examined them and confirmed that these little ones were indeed only suffering from superficial injuries, with the most severe being some bruises that would take some time to heal, he said, "These children are all from our village. They got into a fight because of our two little ones, so I'm afraid I'll have to trouble you to accompany us on a visit to their families to provide an explanation."
"I'm sorry for the trouble." Luo Ge handed over the medicine fees, consultation fees, and an extra tael of silver to the Doctor.
By now, it was already late in the day, and the old Doctor still had to accompany them to visit each of the children's families and explain the situation one by one. She felt quite embarrassed about the trouble.
The Doctor she had called was the same one who had previously detected her pregnancy.
Upon receiving the silver and hearing Luo Ge's words, the Doctor looked at the group of children and nodded.
"Very well, this old one will accompany the lady on this visit. It's no trouble."
"Thank you, Doctor."
Gu Jinchen followed behind Luo Ge, carrying the children's medicine and gifts for their families as an apology, and they headed out.
Seeing that Older Baby, Second Baby, and Tie Dan were obediently following them, he didn't stop them.
When Wang Sister-In-Law learned that it was her own naughty son who had started it all, she didn't hesitate to join them as well.
...In just half a day, these well-behaved children had ended up like this. No family wouldn't be worried.
Those who had a good relationship with Gu's family could understand the reason, while those with a poorer relationship couldn't help but be criticized.
But this wasn't their fault.
If they themselves were in this situation, they would feel bad too.
But the next day, when Qian Duoduo and others came with their parents to demand an explanation.
These families also didn't hesitate to stand on the same side as them.
After sending off the last child and the Doctor, all the children hung their heads low.
Wang Sister-In-Law didn't even wait for Luo Ge and others to say much, she just took Tie Dan away by the ear.
Taking her two little ones home, when Luo Ge saw their appearance, she couldn't help but laugh and patted their heads.
"What's going on? Why do you look like little bitter gourds?"
Unexpectedly, as soon as she finished speaking, she heard the sobbing sounds of the two children, and Older Baby's crying nearly scared her out of her wits.
She hurriedly squatted down and wiped their dirty little faces.
"Don't cry, Aunt didn't mean to blame you."
This incident was understandable, the blame should be on Little Fatty.
"Aunt understands this matter, it's not Yun Mu's fault, nor is it Second Baby or Tie Dan's fault."
"You, Tie Dan, and Second Baby are all good children in our hearts."
She was fine when she didn't speak, but the more she spoke, the harder the two children cried, their voices choked up.
Second Baby was still alright, but Older Baby's appearance truly made one's heart ache.
Gu Jinchen even frowned.
Seeing this, the young couple glanced at each other and fell silent.
