Walking into a cesspit, the best evil widow wants to stand up

In the following days, Shen Ping and his companions did not stay much on the road except for resting in the inn at night. In this way, they traveled for four or five days in a row and finally arrived at the provincial capital at 3 p.m. on the seventh day.

Because before Shen Ping left, Lord Zhang wrote a letter to Lord Xu. After receiving the letter, Lord Xu quickly asked his wife Dong to clean up a few guest rooms.

I thought that when Shen Ping and the others arrived, I could rest early and not be in a rush.

Mrs. Dong knew that Shen Ping was coming, so she cleaned up the room early.

Since she arrived at the provincial capital, there were few people she could talk to, although not long after she arrived there, many wives of officials wanted to get close to her and try to get close to her.

But Dong knew that most of these wives of officials had ulterior motives, and they only flattered the powerful and looked down on the weak, and they were not sincere in their treatment of her husband. So Dong was just polite on the surface and would decline their invitations whenever possible.

Therefore, in the prefecture, Dong basically did not go anywhere else, mostly staying in the government office. Now that she heard that Shen Ping was coming, she was so happy.

Tiechui and Cuihong looked around along the way, and everything outside was new. They had only stayed in Heyang County at most and had not been anywhere else.

It was similar to the last time in Pingnan County and Heyang County, so they didn't think it was anything special. It was different from the provincial capital and much more beautiful than the county seat.

Like Cui Feng and Cui Hong, this was also the first time for them to leave Pingnan County. Looking at the tall buildings and the bustling streets outside the city, they couldn't help but be dazzled.

"Cui Feng, you see, the provincial capital is different. The streets here are bigger than those in the county town, and you can see that the ground is paved with blue bricks." Cuihong said with surprise.

"That's right! These blue bricks are very valuable. It's a waste to use them to pave the road." Cui Feng looked regretful.

Seeing their surprised expressions, Wuchun curled her lips. They were really surprised by what they had never seen before.

Not knowing where the government office was, Tiechui tightened the reins and the carriage stopped immediately.

"Madam, I don't know where to go?" Tiechui looked confused.

"Hehehe~"

A burst of laughter with the sound of silver bells rang out on the street, and Tiechui was immediately attracted. Looking up, he saw many girls with bright clothes and pretty faces shopping and playing in groups on the streets of the state capital.

I don't know what jokes they were telling. From time to time, they lowered their heads and smiled. Their bright eyes and white teeth almost blinded Tiechui's eyes.

Some of them looked like young ladies, followed by maids and servants carrying the purchased things.

The girls in the capital city are much prettier than those in small places. Tiechui couldn't help but be dazzled when he saw them.

Through the curtain, Cui Feng saw Tiechui's expression and couldn't help but cover her mouth and laugh. She poked Cuihong with her elbow and nodded in the direction of Tiechui.

When Cuihong saw Tiechui staring at those young girls in a daze, she inexplicably felt sour in her heart and rolled her eyes.

Shen Ping lifted the curtain and looked outside. This provincial capital was indeed different from a small place. It was really prosperous and the streets stretched as far as the eye could see.

Shen Ping turned her head and looked at Wuchun: "Wuchun, you are more familiar with this place than we are, how do you get to the government office?"

Wuchun scratched his head and said with an embarrassed look: "Mom, I rarely go shopping~"

Although he didn't say it clearly, Shen Ping knew that what he meant was that he didn't know the way.

Ugh!

Shen Ping was also convinced. Wuchun had been here for several months, but he didn't even know the way.

"Let's find someone to ask for directions!" Shen Ping said.

"Madam, I'll go down and take a look~" Cuihong took the initiative to speak.

"Okay!" Shen Ping nodded.

"Ma'am, I'll go down too!"

Seeing Cuihong get off the carriage, Cui Feng followed suit.

Seeing people coming and going on the roadside, some of them in a hurry, Cuihong stopped a girl in plain clothes and asked, "Girl, where is the prefectural government office?"

"I don't know him!" The girl shook her head and left.

"How can this be possible? We have to ask those well-dressed people!" Cui Feng rolled his eyes. He looked around and saw a well-dressed woman next to a small stall selling groceries on the street.

He walked forward and bowed, "Madam, may I ask how to get to the prefectural government office?"

The lady was followed by a maid, and the two were looking at the small things on the stall. When they heard someone talking behind them, the lady turned her head.

Cuihong just happened to walk over, took a closer look, and was immediately happy. Isn't this Miss Mo!

"Ms. Mo, is that you?" Cuihong shouted happily.

Cuihong was right. It was Mo Ru who knew that her godmother would come in a few days and the soap happened to be used up during these days.

She was thinking about going out to buy some toiletries. When Mrs. Dong heard this, she thought it was just what she wanted, so she asked her and her maid to go out and look around to see if there was anything suitable.

The two of them had just bought some soap and passed by this grocery stall. They saw some children's toys and were thinking of buying one for their daughter. Unexpectedly, they ran into Cuihong.

Hearing the other person's words, Mo Ru was surprised. He took a closer look and found that it was Cui Hong. He immediately asked in surprise: "Cui Hong, are you really here? Where is my godmother?"

"Madam is over there!" Cuihong turned her head and pointed in the direction of the carriage.

Mo Ru also saw the hammer at this moment.

He didn't even bother to look at the little gadgets on the stall and walked towards the carriage.

"Hello, Miss Mo!" Tiechui greeted Mo Ru respectfully.

Mo Ru smiled and nodded, walked to the window of the carriage, and shouted inside: "Godmother~"

Shen Ping saw Mo Ru through the curtains, and quickly opened them, smiling and saying, "My goddaughter, what a coincidence! Wuchun said she didn't know the way, and I was just planning to find someone to ask for directions. And now I bump into you!"

"Godmother, the provincial capital is close to here. I will lead the way for you." Mo Ru was about to move forward when she was stopped by Shen Ping, who asked her to get on the carriage.

Mo Ru wanted to continue walking, but he couldn't persuade Shen Ping, so he had to get on the carriage and left the maid Hongmei outside to lead the way. Cuihong and Cuifeng also followed.

"Come! Sit down quickly~" Shen Ping patted the cushion next to her and asked Mo Ru to sit down next to her.

"Sister Mo, has my sister been obedient recently?" When Wu Chun saw Mo Ru, he asked her about his daughter Xu Wan.

"What else are you talking about? Wan'er is clamoring to find Brother Wuchun!" Mo Ru smiled.

When talking about her daughter Xu Wan, Mo Ru's face was full of smiles, and her face was full of maternal love.

"Godmother, my father and mother told me a few days ago that you would come to the provincial capital. I have already cleaned several rooms. Today, I took advantage of my free time to come out and buy some toiletries." As he said this, Mo Ru raised the things in his hand.

Thinking that Hongmei was going to walk, it was better to put the things on the carriage.

"Toiletries?" Shen Ping's mind moved, and she immediately asked Mo Ru to hand the things over to her for her to see.

Unexpectedly, what Mo Ru bought were those traditional scented soaps, which were not only crudely made, but also had no fragrance and even had an unpleasant smell.
