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

The old woman did not answer Shen Ping's words. She turned around and walked back into the house. Her movements were so agile, in stark contrast to her shaky appearance with the crutches just now. She seemed 20 years younger.

Shen Ping and Xu Feng were completely confused. They couldn't understand why this woman was so strange!

Just now he looked like he was about to fall down because of the crutches he was walking with, but in the blink of an eye he threw away the crutches and was walking so swiftly, like a different person.

Tiechui, Cuihong and others also sensed something was wrong, so they got off the carriage and stood behind Shen Ping.

"Madam, why is this old woman so strange? Let's go, maybe we'll reach the town ahead!" Cuihong looked worried.

Shen Ping shook her head: "No, it's getting dark now, and the weather isn't good today, and I don't know if it will rain later.

If it rains, it will be unsafe to travel, so we might as well rest here for a night. At worst, we can set up camp nearby."

Let's go, unload our stuff, set up the tent next to this house, and stay overnight before leaving." Shen Ping turned around and planned to find a place nearby that was sheltered from the wind to set up the tent.

Just then, hurried footsteps were heard from behind, followed by a loud voice.

"Madam, please stay!"

Shen Ping and his companions stopped immediately and looked back in unison.

In addition to the old woman just now, there was another man in his 50s next to her. He was of medium build and had dark skin. He looked like an honest farmer.

However, without exception, both of them stared at Xu Feng. Xu Feng also sensed this and hid behind Shen Ping again.

"Madam, are you guys going to stay overnight?" The man looked at Shen Ping, and from time to time his eyes glanced at Xu Feng behind her.

Shen Ping raised the corner of her mouth and smiled slightly: "Yes, we came from Zhizhou and passed by here. It's getting late. I want to stay here for one night. I wonder if it's convenient~"

"Convenient, convenient!" The old lady on the side smiled and nodded repeatedly.

"Yes! What my wife said is right. There are only two of us in such a big house. It would be good if you guys came. You can just keep us company. Come on in. It's windy outside."

As he spoke, the man turned sideways and stretched out his hand as a gesture of invitation.

"Thank you very much!" Madam Shen nodded in thanks and invited everyone in.

"Mrs. Shen~"

Seeing Shen Ping about to go in, Xu Feng hesitated for a moment, tugged at Shen Ping's sleeve, and seemed to be hesitant to speak.

"what happened?"

Shen Ping turned around and looked at Xu Feng's worried eyes. She couldn't help but wonder in her heart, Xu Feng is usually fearless, why is he so timid here?

"Mrs. Shen, don't you think there's something a little strange about this old couple?" Xu Feng said in a low voice.

Shen Ping raised her lips a few times: "Let's go! Now that we are here, we should make the best of it!"

She had seen it a long time ago, especially the old couple, who looked at Xu Feng as if they had seen an old friend.

Xu Feng is no longer an ordinary person. She is the emperor's daughter. Shen Ping has to meet them to find out whether these two are enemies or friends.

Looking at Shen Ping's calm expression, Xu Feng knew that Madam Shen was not an ordinary person. Maybe she had already noticed the strangeness of the old couple.

"Come, sit down and have a drink of water first."

The group entered the house, and the old woman went into the kitchen and came out with a teapot and some cups.

"Come! Drink a cup of hot water first to warm your body." As he said this, he poured hot water for Shen Ping and the others.

Tiechui, who had tied up the horse, walked in at this time. He was about to drink water from the cup on the table, but was stopped by Shen Ping with a look.

"Haha~"

The man smiled cheerfully: "Madam, are you afraid that I will poison you?"

Changing the subject, the man continued, "But when you go out, you must be on guard against others. You are right to do this. You are young and strong, you are not afraid of us old couple, right?"

Since the other party had said this, Shen Ping didn't say anything else. She took the opportunity to pick up the cup and inserted a silver needle from her sleeve to test it. When she found that there was no color change, she drank the water with peace of mind.

After watching Shen Ping drink the water, everyone picked up their cups and started drinking.

"Madam, where are you from?" My name is Liang Da, and this is my old wife Ling Yun.

"My last name is Shen, you can call me Madam Shen." Shen Ping smiled slightly.

"Madam Shen, may I know what the names of these others are?" The old lady Ling was talking to Shen Ping, but her eyes were looking at Xu Feng.

"They are my servants~" Shen Ping said in passing.

"My name is Hammer~"

"My name is Cui Feng~"

"My name is Cuihong~"

Seeing the three of them give their names, Xu Feng reluctantly said, "My name is Xu Feng~"

The old couple were not interested in the other three people, only in Xu Feng.

"Xu Feng~" Ling murmured, with a hint of disappointment in her eyes.

Suddenly remembering something, Ling asked, "Xu Feng, are you a boy or a girl? What does your father do? What's your mother's name?"

"Of course I'm a man?" Xu Feng looked alert: "Why are you asking this?"

Ling smiled awkwardly: "It's okay, I think you look like a girl, I'm just asking out of curiosity~"

The scene was awkward for a while, and Liang Da was the first to break the silence.

"Are you guys hungry? We don't have anything else to eat at home, but we have some black noodles. How about we cook some noodle soup for you?" Liang Da stood up and was about to go to the kitchen.

"Hey~"

Shen Ping stopped him: "We have some dry food on us, and you don't have much food either, so don't waste it. We are already very grateful if you can let us stay overnight~"

After hearing what Shen Ping said, Liang Da did not insist any more.

Shen Ping looked at the house carefully. The house was quite spacious, but there was no decent furniture inside. It would not be an exaggeration to say that the house was bare.

There are three rooms in total. There is nothing else in the rooms except a tattered wooden bed. There is also a kitchen and a woodshed.

Ling brought bedding, and Shen Ping asked Cuihong and the others to make the beds simply.

Tiechui wanted Xu Feng to sleep with him, but Xu Feng refused: "Who would sleep with you? You wish."

He had good intentions, but Xu Feng seemed afraid that he would take advantage of him. Tiechui looked puzzled.

Shen Ping set up a tent and let Xu Feng sleep in one room by himself, while she slept in the tent with Cui Feng and Cui Hong.

The Ling couple looked at the tent, which looked like a small house, and immediately found it strange. It was the first time they had seen such a thing.

When Shen Ping told them that they could sleep in it and it could protect them from wind and rain, and that it could also be folded up and made them easy to carry, they immediately praised it.

"Who will sleep here tonight?" Ling asked intentionally or unintentionally.

"My wife and I will sleep here, and they will each have their own bed." Cuihong said frankly.

"Oh~"

Ling suddenly realized: "Then Madam Shen, you must be tired from traveling, so go to bed early and we won't disturb you."

As she spoke, Ling tugged at Liang Da's sleeve, winked at him, and the two of them walked out of the room.
