After Jiang Ci left in the donkey cart, Yan Shu went directly back to his room.

He brought several bags of food back to the space.

Thinking that she would officially escape tomorrow, there were many people on the road and she could no longer enter and exit the space at will like now.

Therefore, all the food that should be prepared must be prepared.

Yan Shu got ten kilograms of white flour, poured it into a basin, and added an appropriate amount of yeast powder to let it rise.

When she woke up, she took out another large piece of meat from the refrigerator and started making jerky.

It is unrealistic to eat braised pork on the road, and you don’t want to treat your mouth badly. Dried meat and dried meat are the best choices right now.

Yan Shu made five-flavored and spicy flavors, and finished ten kilograms of meat.

After the meat is marinated, it is placed directly in the oven for baking.

Then she fried ten pounds of flour, and polished ten pounds of soybean flour and ten pounds of mung bean flour.

The smooth and fine bean flour is added with an appropriate amount of sugar, which makes it taste better.

It was already four hours later when everything was done.

Yan Shu walked to the porcelain basin, lifted the cotton cloth on it and took a look. His face was already awake.

Place the prepared ingredients on the work surface, knead the dough until smooth, and start making your own scallion biscuits.

Biscuits have a longer shelf life and are more filling, so it is necessary to bring some for emergencies on the road.

the other side

After Jiang Ci returned to Qingjiu Village, he first went to Village Chief Chen's house to explain his purpose.

Chen San readily agreed.

"Our village went south with Xinghua Village, and you will do the same with them."

"Then I won't bother you."

Jiang Ci stood up and bowed, and Chen San personally escorted him out of the house.

Back at Jiang's house, Jiang Ci suddenly felt that the surroundings were exceptionally quiet.

The quietness... filled him with fear, as if he had returned to that dilapidated and gloomy cold palace.

It has been 11 years since he came to this home when he was five years old. Uncle Jiang, Aunt Jiang, and Jiang Huan, although they are not his blood relatives, are the relatives who have protected him all the way.

Jiang Ci stood under the banyan tree, looking around at everything around him with his calm eyes.

Many childhood memories come back to mind.

I thought that the first thing Uncle Jiang did when he got his salary was to take him to the study to buy books. Even if a book cost him a month's money, he would touch his head with a smile on his face.

"Little Aci, you must study hard, because this is your only way out now."

Thinking that Aunt Jiang would make him new clothes every year, the clothes would be slightly larger.

At first, he didn't understand why he wanted to make clothes that were too big, but later he realized that the clothes were meant for Jiang Huan to wear when he wore them out. Jiang Huan was obviously two years older than him, but he could never wear new clothes.

Even so, Jiang Huan still took care of him like a big brother since he was a child. When he first came to the village, he was bullied by the children in the same village because of his physical weakness. In order to help him vent his anger, Jiang Huan beat three children who were taller than him alone. There was a fight, and he went home with a bloody head that day.

In his darkest time, it was the Jiang family who illuminated a beam of light for him. Even if he was cold-hearted, this kindness would be engraved in his heart.

Jiang Ci's eyes fell on the main room.

Thinking back to the night when Jiang Huan was laid to rest, the woman was lying on the ground with a confused look on her face.

A faint smile flashed across Jiang Ci's eyes.

She must have arrived at that time, thinking that he would be alone from now on, but perhaps God took pity on him and summoned this little fox to accompany him.

Putting away his thoughts, Jiang Ci returned to his house.

I simply packed a few pieces of clothes for daily wear, brought all the books I usually read with me, and stopped taking any other extraneous items.

After packing his things, he came to Yan Shu's room.

Opening the wardrobe, there were several dresses neatly stacked inside.

She was still in mourning, and her clothes were mostly simple and elegant.

When Jiang Ci took out the clothes, the white cloth fell to the ground.

He knelt down, picked up the cloth, and took a closer look.

This is……

An uncontrollable blood boiled in his body, and his fair cheeks burned instantly.

This little coat is different from the bellybands worn by ordinary women, and is more...explicit.

How could she wear this...

Suddenly feeling a surge of heat gushing out of his nose, he hurriedly put down the coat in his hand, turned around and rushed out quickly.

Furong Town

Jishitang backyard

It was already afternoon when Jiang Ci arrived.

"Tomorrow we will go south to escape. I will arrange for Huanying to send you back to the capital first, and you will live in a villa on the outskirts for the time being."

Doctor Lin looked at Jiang Ci dissatisfied: "What? With Miss Yan beside me, who has better medical skills, my old bones will no longer be of use?"

Jiang Ci's eyes were calm: "It has been more than ten years since you resigned and followed me here. Now it's time to go back and take care of yourself. I've already arranged manpower over in the capital, and I feel more at ease with you assisting Wei Zhao."

Doctor Lin stroked his beard: "News came from Xuanzongmen today that Ye Lanxuan has rushed to Xinyang. It seems that he is going for the [-] Northern Hebei Army in Liu Bin's hands."

Jiang Ci's cold eyes flashed with a sharp edge.

"The Liu family is hereditary and far away from court disputes. How easy is it to take advantage of their military power?"

Doctor Lin picked up the teapot and poured Jiang Ci a cup of tea.

"The old lady of the Liu family has a close relationship with your maternal grandfather's family. You have more hope of getting help from the Liu family than Ye Lanxuan."

Jiang Ci was silent for a while: "I wonder how much of the old love is left."

Doctor Lin said: "There is always an opportunity. The news of Ye Lanxuan's assassination has spread to the capital. I am afraid that the first one will suspect you. Another wave of killers has come out of the capital. This time it is Tianji Pavilion. The top killer, Wei Zhao, has been closely watched by the secret guards in the palace recently, so you must be more careful."

Jiang Ci nodded in agreement.

"I'm taking your pulse."

Jiang Ci didn't refuse, and put his arms on the table.

Dr. Lin closed his eyes and made a careful diagnosis.

"I've been a bit angry lately. I've never seen your body react like this before. You've always been very reserved."

Facing Dr. Lin's teasing gaze, Jiang Ci looked away uncomfortably.

"Maybe it's due to the recent dry weather."

"Then drink more chrysanthemum tea to reduce your anger. It's time to lower your anger."

Yan family's big room

Wang Dahua and Wang Cui'e were busy in and out all day long.

Yan Daqiang sat on a chair under the tree and stared at them gloomily.

"Mom, we only have one cart at home. If I pull it on, there won't be much space left. You guys have brought so many things with you, how can you fit them in?"

"If you can't fit it, just carry it on your back. In short, I spent a little money to buy these belongings. If I can't come back from this trip, wouldn't these things be in vain?"

Wang Cui'e couldn't help but give some advice.

"Mom, you said we can just take the pots and pans, but what are you doing with the chamber pot? It will be smoked to death if you take it on the road."

"What do you know? I bought that chamber pot when Brother Peng got married. We have a lot of women in our family, and there will be more inconvenient times outside in the future. Bringing the chamber pot will definitely come in handy."

Su Xiaotian listened to the conversation between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law and returned to the house with a mocking look on her face.

Yan Peng sat at the table and read a book without even raising his eyelids.

Su Xiaotian got angry when she saw him. If he hadn't ruined her innocence, why would she have ended up in this miserable place?

"How long has it been and you are still reading?"

Yan Peng frowned and stared at Su Xiaotian with a cold face.

"You have been criticizing me all day for not being as good at studying as Jiang Ci. I want to study hard so that I can get the honors earlier, and also so that you can see who is stronger between me and Jiang Mubai!"

Su Xiaotian couldn't help laughing.

"Jiang Ci passed the junior college entrance examination at the age of 14, and he is still the head of the state capital. You can't compare to him!"

"boom!"

Yan Peng threw the book in his hand on the table and rushed to Su Xiaotian angrily.

"What's good about him being a sick man? Apart from that face, is there anything else he can compare to me? Is it because I didn't satisfy you?"

After saying this, Yan Peng picked up Su Xiaotian and threw her on the bed.

Su Xiaotian struggled desperately, but she was too thin and was no match for Yan Peng.

In anger, she slapped Yan Peng on the face.

Yan Peng's body shook, and he suddenly woke up.

He stared at Su Xiaotian for a while, then got up and rushed out of the room with a livid face.

Hong'er was standing at the door, and she could really hear what was going on in the room.

The jealousy and unwillingness in his heart turned into full grievance the moment he saw Yan Peng.

Yan Peng's eyes were red, he picked up Hong'er and went to the room where Hong'er lived.

Yan Yao sat quietly in the room and witnessed everything in front of her, curling her lips.
