Started as a thatched house and ended up as a female figure

Mrs. Xu sighed: "It was also our good luck. We didn't encounter anyone who was chasing us until we were about to leave Qingyuan County."

Cheng Wan's eyes flickered, and she couldn't help but wonder whether the reason why Mrs. Xu and the others didn't meet the pursuers was because Song County Cheng and his gang were eliminated by Gu Yan, Shaoqing and others. ?

Of course, this is just Cheng Wan's guess.

After all, it has not yet been determined whether the "boy named Gu" mentioned by Song County Cheng is Gu Yan.

"and after?"

Xu Zhinian asked anxiously.

"Then we came all the way to Liangzhou. Later, we met the people your uncle sent to Qingyuan to pick us up, and then we followed them to Shuoyang."

Mrs. Xu finished the story in a few words.

But she didn't say that during the period before leaving Qingyuan County, Xu Zhinian's father was on the line between life and death several times.

Not to mention that when they were about to leave Qingyuan County, they almost ran into the new emperor's army head-on. The situation was extremely dangerous.

Not to mention that I didn’t bring enough food on the road, so I couldn’t have enough to eat for a long time.

……

No matter how much danger, heart-wrenching, or suffering it is, it has all passed.

Mrs. Xu did not want to talk about those hardships and increase the children's worry and unhappiness.

If it weren't for the fact that Magistrate Xu's injury was so serious that she couldn't hide it at all, she wouldn't even want to tell him that Magistrate Xu was injured.

"By the way, you and Zhishu obviously set off before your father and I. Why did your father and I arrive in Shuoyang first? And after I met the people your uncle sent to pick us up, I asked them, Everyone said they didn’t meet you and Zhishu on the way to Qingyuan County.”

Mrs. Xu's face was full of worry.

"When Prince Mu sent someone to deliver a message to the governor's mansion before, he only said that you were coming back together, but he didn't say why you two siblings were traveling with Wan Yatou. Along the way, was it..."

Mrs. Xu's eyes were red. She wanted to say whether this journey was uneventful. Did you encounter any danger?

But thinking about all the hardships I have experienced along the way, why do I think my daughter and son will be safe and smooth?

When Xu Zhinian was about to say something to comfort Mrs. Xu, the carriage suddenly stopped.

Then Chunwen's voice sounded outside.

"Madam, Miss, Miss Cheng, we are here."

Where are you?

Cheng Wan stood beside the carriage with Gu Yu in her arms, looking at the big house in front of her with a confused look on her face.

Shouldn't they go to the government to settle down and then go back to their respective families?

Why did you bring these guys here?

This doesn't look like a government either.

Cheng Wan was confused, and Mrs. Lin and the others were even more confused.

Because Prince Mu was leading the way, Mrs. Lin and the others did not worry about where they were going.

Like Cheng Wan, Mrs. Lin and the others instinctively thought that Mu Shizi would lead them to the government to settle household registration matters first.

Cheng Wan looked up at the plaque above the house.

Very good, I don’t know the words.

"Yishuyuan."

Xu Zhinian raised his head and read out the words on the plaque.

Mrs. Xu was helped out of the carriage by a maid. She smiled and answered: "This should be Prince Mu's private residence. I believe Prince Mu wants you to rest and rest first before doing other things. In this case, you and I would like to go together." Yes, it’s just that the place I arranged is far inferior to Prince Mu’s private residence.”

The facts are just as Mrs. Xu said.

Just as Cheng Wan was about to respond to Mrs. Xu's words, he saw Shaoqing coming over.

"Miss Cheng."

Shaoqing walked up to him, bowed respectfully to Cheng Wan, and then said with a smile: "Miss Cheng, this courtyard is the private residence of Prince Mu. It's already late, so you can rest here tonight." Let’s stay here, and we’ll be busy with settling down and settling down tomorrow.”

If Cheng Wan was a particularly aloof girl, she would definitely refuse this arrangement.

She would think, how could she live in someone else's private residence?

Mu Shizi has helped them a lot in the past few days. Wouldn't it be too much to take advantage of others and to live in someone else's private house again?

But Cheng Wan was not.

Cheng Wan readily agreed.

It was indeed getting late. Even if he refused this arrangement, he would definitely not be able to stay in a new home tonight. He would have to find another place to make do with it for one night.

If it wasn't troublesome enough, since Prince Mu had directly dragged them here, he sincerely wanted them to rest here for the night.

In addition, Cheng Wan actually knew very well that Mu Yao was taking such good care of them because he wanted to help Gu Yan repay his kindness.

In this case, let's do whatever they want, so that they don't have to worry about this all the time.

Cheng Wan was right, but only half right.

Mu Yao took such good care of Cheng Wan and his party that they had already arrived in Shuoyang City and arranged a place for Cheng Wan and the others to stay for one night. Especially, he arranged them directly into his own private courtyard.

Naturally, there is a reason for thinking about Cheng Wan and the Cheng family's kindness to Gu Yan, but besides this, there is another reason.

Cheng Wan is the girl Gu Yan likes.

Mu Yao felt that no matter how long Gu Yan's love lasted, as long as Gu Yan liked him for a day, he had to take more care of Cheng Wan.

This is total love.

As for Granny Zhang and the others, it was completely incidental.

Otherwise, we can't just ignore them. After all, they all come from the same village, and their relationship is very good.

Although Cheng Wan agreed, she had asked Mrs. Lin and others for their opinions before agreeing.

If Mrs. Lin and the others feel embarrassed and don't want to live here, then Cheng Wan will definitely have to go with the large army.

Excuse me?

Mrs. Lin and the others said it didn’t exist!

How fresh is it? I was offered to stay in a big house for one night, but you still refused?

Do you know that if you refuse this time, will you have the opportunity to enter such a house again in this life?

Not to mention staying there for a night.

What's more, Mrs. Lin and the others have some understanding of Mu Yao's behavior.

He is a wealthy man who is not arrogant but honest. If he said he would let us stay, he must be sincere.

If Mu Yao knew that Mrs. Lin and the others included the word sincerity in their comments about him, would he be able to maintain the coldness on his face?

How could the "Prince" of Liangzhou be an honest person?

Not talking about people in the officialdom, just talking about Mu Yao's concubine brothers, they could eat him alive.

Mrs. Lin and the others felt that Mu Yao was sincere because there was no need for Mu Yao to be hypocritical to Mrs. Lin and the others.

This is the absolute oppression brought about by different classes. Those in higher positions will only show cowardice to those in higher positions and higher positions.

They don't even bother to lie to those in lower positions.

"Awan, I'm relieved that you have found a good place tonight. I want to go to my uncle's house with my mother and the others to see my father first, and then come back to you tomorrow."
