My house was confiscated and I was exiled. I emptied the emperor's warehouse and fled.

Hu Bo followed his gaze and saluted Su Yunwan: "Slave Hu Bo has met the princess."

Su Yunwan looked at the maid in front of her who was wearing layers of cloth but still graceful and beautiful, and said lightly: "No courtesy."

Later, Hu Bo met the old lady and other Qin family members one by one. When she saw Pei standing alone, she didn't know what was going on and called the eldest lady by her old name.

As soon as she finished speaking, the old lady said, "Mr. Pei is no longer a member of the Qin family, so there is no need to be polite."

Mr. Pei's face turned red with embarrassment, and he looked at the old lady with a look that was more sinister than a poisonous snake.

As soon as the old lady looked over, she quickly lowered her head, hiding the hatred in her eyes.

When the government office assigned a place to go, Pei's household registration was not unexpectedly located in Beiling Village. Qin Junxian arranged for her to ride in the Zhao family's carriage.

Being penniless, she had to rely on the Qin family, which was of course exactly what she wanted.

There is a natural blood connection, and as long as she behaves well, she and her eldest son will one day get back together.

After arriving at the thatched cottage, Ms. Pei was not idle, and spontaneously helped the Zhao couple who were cooking.

She thought that becoming a nun was the most bleak, dark and despairing moment in her life. But in the past, the high-ranking mistress of the palace became a widow. She was mercilessly slapped in the face by the old lady in front of the palace's old friends, and her dignity was completely lost.

At this moment, her hatred for the old lady reached a new level, and she wished that the old lady would die quickly.

When Amber heard what the old lady said, she opened her mouth slightly and was completely stunned.

As Qin Junyi's eldest maid, no one knew better than her the hurt and pain caused by her master worshiping his mother, but she never thought that the eldest lady would be kicked out one day.

Amber quietly raised her eyes and glanced at Qin Junyi. Seeing his calm expression, she thought to herself: The eldest lady must have done something outrageous again.

Thinking of her master being seriously injured and suffering inhuman harm, Amber's heart and eyes were filled with pity. She sniffed and said to the old lady Fu Shen: "Yes, I have recorded it."

Afterwards, the palace guards came forward to pay homage to Qin Junyi and all the masters. The scene was very lively.

In the thatched house not far away, the female members of the Chu family listened to the movement and thought of the infinite scenery of the past. They all looked melancholy and sad.

Chu Feifei sighed: "I don't know what happened to those servants."

"According to the law, domestic slaves become official slaves and are sold or distributed to the royal family and nobles by the government." Madam Chu explained.

"Okay, everyone has their own destiny, we still worry about our own affairs." The old lady interrupted, "I heard from the boss that although we have escaped from the fire pit, we have to work with the men. You must be mentally prepared."

When it comes to this, in the past, they only stayed in the back house in a third of an acre. The female relatives who were responsible for taking care of their husbands and raising their children felt anxious and uneasy, full of fear and confusion about the future.

After Qin Junyi greeted everyone in the palace, he called a few people into the thatched house to talk.

Amber took small, quick steps to the carriage compartment and took out a tea set. "Madam, is there hot water? I'll bring tea in for the master."

Just now, Qin Junyi ordered everyone to change their names.

"There should be, go and have a look over there." Su Yunwan pointed to the small kitchen on the side of the thatched house.

Amber thanked him and walked over with the tea set.

Zhao Yongfu saw a dozen new people from the Qin family, making pancakes for emergency. Upon hearing Amber's intention, Grandma Fang, who was watching the fire, stood up and poured water for her.

Amber looked at the small kitchen generously, and the more she looked, the more frightened she became.

A considerable number of various tablewares are placed in the corner of the table on the left. They are made of high-quality materials and are as bright as new. You can tell at a glance that they are not items from this remote place.

In the other corner, there were about a dozen prepared dishes. It was covered by a large bowl and you couldn't see what they were, but you could tell from the garbage that there were many fresh vegetables such as cabbage and radishes.

On the ground next to the table, there are buckets, basins and other objects of different sizes, some empty and some filled with water.

Next to the stove on the right, there is a burning stove. The earthen pot on the stove is squeaking and steaming. Judging from the smell, it turns out to be ginseng soup.

It seems that the master did not miss out on food and drink, which is great.

Amber was in a high mood and with a smile on her face, she carried the tea tray and entered the thatched house where Qin Junyi and others were. After that, she stayed to wait on her and didn't come out for a long time.

The north wind suddenly blows, chilling my bones.

The old lady called Su Yunwan, and all the female relatives gathered in a thatched house to take shelter from the wind.

The house was empty, so Su Yunwan asked someone to lay out the tent floor mats carried by the team.

Everyone was sitting on the floor, and the old lady said, "Wan Wan, are you hungry? Why don't you start the meal first and not wait for Brother Yi."

According to the rules, everyone must wait until the head of the family sits at the table and raises chopsticks to announce that dinner is ready before everyone can start eating.

The old lady no longer adheres to any rules towards Su Yunwan, and only puts her and the baby first.

Su Yunwan chuckled and said, "I'm not hungry, but grandma, you can eat first."

"Grandma's not hungry either." As soon as she finished speaking, there was a growling sound in her stomach.

It was like a switch was turned on, causing other people's stomachs to make a fuss, one after another.

Lunch was taken care of early before entering the city, and because they were rushing on the road, everyone only ate a piece of baked biscuit, and they were so hungry that their chests were touching their backs.

Su Yunwan stood up and said, "Let's open a table first and let Brother Yi join his brothers later."

The sons of the Qin family were setting up tents with the shadow guards in the yard, and they were not finished yet.

The old lady hesitated for a moment, then nodded and said, "That's fine."

So, when Qin Junyi finished the conversation and went out to look for Su Yunwan, they were having a good time in the main room.

The old lady who always pays attention to rules looked quite embarrassed when she saw Qin Junyi entering the room, "Brother Yi, you are finally done with your work. Hurry up and let people serve the food."

Qin Junyi smiled and said: "Grandma, you continue, I will go to the thatched house next door to have dinner."

After saying that, he looked at his beloved wife who stopped using her chopsticks and had a faint look on her face: "Wan Wan, are you coming with me?"

Su Yunwan didn't want to move, "I won't bother you anymore, just go ahead."

"Then you eat more."

"Ah."

Qin Junyi exited the room, followed by Hu Hui who was beside him and watched all of this quietly, lowering his eyes thoughtfully.

After dinner, Hu Bo went to find Qian Rong, an old servant of the palace. He didn't know what Qian Rong said, but when he came back, his face was extremely tense.

Just as she was about to enter the room to wait on her, Wu Shaohan, who was on duty at the door, reached out to stop her and said expressionlessly: "We don't need anyone here. You can go down and rest."

"Then I'll wait for the summons." Amber stood aside.

In the room, Su Yunwan looked away from the chessboard and was about to speak.

Qin Junyi, who had a strong desire to survive, said outside: "Hu Bo, come back tomorrow morning."

There was a respectful response from outside the door, and then the footsteps faded away.

Su Yunwan: "...I just want to ask, are you in a bad mood?"

Even though he tried his best to hide it, Su Yunwan, who got along day and night, still noticed the clues.

Qin Junyi was stunned when he heard this, and then smiled bitterly, "The women in the northwest may be in trouble."
