Happiness System

The youngest and most miserable one was the fifth room. Qian Yanhua was only seventeen years old and her child was only three months old.

With grandma not around, a family like theirs would never be able to feed their child by themselves, so their milk supply would have dried up long ago.

The three-month-old baby could not control his peeing and pooping, and cried all day long because of hunger.

Qian Yanhua didn't know how to take care of a child at all. She married the youngest illegitimate son and had no status at all. She could only squat in the corner holding her son and crying with him, but she didn't dare to cry loudly.

Compared with the silence of the men, the women were arguing so loudly that even the old lady who had no say in the matter couldn't help but criticize them a few times.

Madam Hou Li Mutong had no choice but to come down and help coax the child, but the effect was not very good.

Hearing the footsteps outside, Qin Yunxi felt that it was time to be driven out of the imperial capital, so she stood up and straightened her clothes.

The children in the second room were the quietest and found a seat with the lightest smell. The old lady and the marquis's wife had already moved their chairs next to them.

Seeing Qin Yunxi's behavior, they were stunned for a moment, then stood up and tidied their clothes.

The second grandson's wife (second daughter-in-law) is said to have practiced it. She probably heard something that they didn't hear, so she followed them and it was right!

In less than a quarter of an hour, the door was opened.

The leader of the Imperial Guards outside was about to come in but retreated again, holding his nose. He shouted at the women and children, "Hurry up, come out! There is no Ningyuan Marquis in the imperial capital now. Line up honestly and quietly!"

Although she had anticipated that her family would not have a good ending, the old lady's spirit was still drained a lot when she heard these words.

Qin Yunxi picked up her daughter, let her son follow her, and led the way out, supporting the old lady with one hand.

There's no point staying in this stinking house!

After everyone went out, the Imperial Guards did not put shackles on them, but counted their heads and handed them over to the officials.

The bailiffs did not conduct a body search on them, but only asked them to take off their gold and silver jewelry and put them on a tray.

The women of wealthy families rarely carry valuables on them except for jewelry, and usually leave them with personal maids to look after temporarily, so there is little point in searching the women.

The most important thing is that the Fu family is an exiled group of good people, so they can't go too far. It would be better to keep some incense and let them pay some tribute on the way.

What is collected now must be handed over to the government, and what is collected along the way is the "hardship fee" for these yamen runners.

The men were already waiting at the gate of the mansion, and those who had been captured were not released.

Seeing the anxious expressions of his grandmother and mother, Fu Xiuwu stepped forward and whispered, "Father and three brothers are waiting for us outside the city."

The Ningyuan Marquis' Mansion was divided after the old marquis passed away. Except for the marquis's line, the rest of the brothers have moved out and built their own mansions.

Ningyuan Marquis had five sons, three legitimate sons and two illegitimate sons. Only the youngest legitimate son Fu Xiuwu and the youngest illegitimate son Fu Mao had not yet received an assignment.

The only males detained at the house were the two of them and seven-year-old Fu Minghan; the other young children were kept with the female family members.

The women had been hungry for three days and were very fragile. They had to be carried on sedan chairs when they went to the garden. It would be a death sentence for them to leave the city!

The old lady had lived a prosperous life for most of her life, but now she was in such a state of desolation. She was so ashamed and embarrassed that she couldn't control herself. Seeing her second grandson's wife standing straight with a serious face, she changed her mind and thought, yes, her Ningyuan Marquis Mansion had done nothing wrong and was not ashamed of the people, she should not feel embarrassed!

She also stood up straight with a serious face and led her children and grandchildren forward.

Just because the old lady could come to terms with it didn’t mean the other women in the family could do the same. They dodged and covered their faces with their sleeves, wishing they could disappear right there, not even caring about their children.

The children fell to the ground and cried with no one caring. They were almost whipped by the yamen runners. The old lady could no longer bear it and scolded them a few words, but they picked up the children and buried their heads in them, walking even more unsteadily and in an ugly manner.

Until they met the nobles of the Fifth Prince's faction, and compared themselves with them, the women of the Fu family suddenly felt that they were not so bad. At least their hairstyle was not messy and their clothes were neat, unlike the other party who wore tattered linen prisoner clothes and shackles.

Qin Yunxi saw Pei Miaomiao, who was wearing prison clothes and looked disheveled, in the crowd. She just glanced at her and then looked away, continuing to walk forward with her daughter and the old lady in her arms.

The old lady can no longer walk and relies entirely on her granddaughter-in-law to support her.

Li Mutong, who was standing by, also felt that she could not walk anymore and wanted her daughter-in-law to help her, but after looking at her granddaughter and mother-in-law, she swallowed her words.

Fu Mingxuan seemed to understand his family's situation. During the days he was imprisoned, he heard his aunt and sisters-in-law say that the Marquis' Mansion was finished and they would become prisoners and inferior people, but his mother said it was okay and they would just move to a different place to live in the future.

When he met other convicts in shackles on the road, he quickly discovered the difference between himself and them.

For example, in terms of clothes, although his family members also smelled bad, most of them were clean and tidy, while the other party wore dirty prison uniforms that were worn crookedly; for example, the attitude of the yamen runners, the yamen runners, who were equally ferocious, only cursed at his family and whipped the ground to scare people, but they really whipped the other party, and it looked very painful!

Fu Mingxuan shuddered, grabbed his mother's clothes and looked away.

As he moved, he found his two uncles. He smiled and waved to them...

"Husband!"

At the foot of the imperial city gate, as soon as she saw Fu Xiusheng, Zou Yiran threw herself into his arms and burst into tears.

Han Shuangshuang did the same, she threw herself on the third young master Fu Lei and cried, feeling aggrieved and pitiful.

After all, Li Mutong was already a grandmother at this age, so she was relatively restrained. She surrounded Fu Ronglang with tears in her eyes, along with her mother-in-law and daughter Fu Qingyue, asking about whether he had ever been tortured.

Among the female relatives, Qin Yunxi seemed out of place.

Fu Xiuwen sighed, stepped forward to take his daughter, looked at Qin Yunxi and said, "My lady, I am sorry."

"It's time to change your tone. Don't call me Madam anymore!"

Qin Yunxi also sighed. What kind of life was she living?

After finally ending the apocalyptic life, this time it’s a normal world, and the original owner’s status is high enough, but it’s a pity that he starts out in exile!

Fu Xiuwen didn't expect her to react like this, and he responded after a pause.

Only men with honors and official positions in the Li Kingdom can address their wives as husband or madam. Now that Fu Xiuwen is a commoner, he is indeed unworthy of his wife's title of husband.

In less than two quarters of an hour, all the people exiled to the south of the desert had gathered together, and the yamen runners waved whips to urge them forward.

This time Qin Yunxi was finally relieved. The old lady and Fu Yuhan were handed over to Fu Xiuwen. She only needed to pull her son and continue moving forward.

"Rest where you are for 50 minutes. No one's range of movement may exceed feet. Anyone who escapes will be flogged times and put into a double shackle!"

When they arrived at Shili Pavilion, the leading bailiff struck the gong, gave some instructions, and then led the other bailiffs to the side.

As soon as they left, relatives and friends who had been waiting nearby came over in a crowd.

The people who came from the Qin family were Qin's mother He Youxin, eldest sister-in-law Mo Mengzhu, and second sister-in-law Zeng Shiyun.

He Youxin hated her son-in-law Fu Xiuwen more than she loved him, so she simply ignored him and walked towards the open space nearby with her daughter holding her hand and her grandson in her arms.

Fu Xiuwen touched his nose and finally decided to follow.

He Youxin took out a list from her sleeve and said to Qin Yunxi, "The imperial capital is in chaos right now, and we didn't dare to ask other relatives and friends to see you off. These are some of their thoughts. Remember them all and remember to return them when you have the chance in the future."

Qin Yunxi took a look, then matched the names and amounts and memorized them in her mind. When she had memorized them almost completely, she gave the list to Fu Xiuwen to memorize.

The money given by relatives and friends was not much, only a few dozen to a hundred taels each. They didn't dare to show up at a time like this, and giving too much might harm Qin Yunxi's family.

It is always easier to add icing on the cake than to provide timely help. Qin Yunxi appreciates their kindness.

But Qin Yunxi did not forget that there is also the concept of internal strength in this world. Although it is not as good as the super hearing, some masters do have extraordinary hearing.

She didn't dare say much, so she could only express her gratitude and ask her mother to take care of herself and her sister-in-law to take good care of her mother.

The things sent by the Qin family were basically prepared by Qin Yunxi and sent over in the name of the Qin family. She was not worried about something being missing. After all, she had a large space in her space, and the things outside were just to cover up her tracks.

The bailiff didn't give much time, so He Youxin didn't say much. She gave a few brief instructions and asked someone to help her daughter and her family of four wash up, and then brought out food for them to eat.

Qin Yunxi had already given up on her image. She just sat cross-legged on the ground with her children and started stuffing the buns into her mouth.

In fact, they are better off than the families of Guan Hou Mansion. At least they have fresh food and clean water.

Fu Xiuwen and the others who were imprisoned in the Sky Prison not only lived in a terrible environment, but also had rotten food and very turbid water. They were truly hungry for three days!

He looked gentle when eating, but he was actually very fast. Qin Yunxi had only eaten half of the palm-sized bun, but he had already finished two and was reaching for the third one.

The Qin family's steward has already gone to the head of the yamen runners to make arrangements. Qin Yunxi suddenly has a very intuitive feeling that the family members in this world are not bad either.

She grabbed He Youxin's hand and said, "Mother, go back and tell father to think more about what I said before, and tell him that his daughter is looking forward to your good news."

Mo Mengzhu and Zeng Shiyun looked at each other. Could it be that the sister-in-law wanted their family to get them back?

Everyone in this imperial capital is in danger now, how can this be easy?

Before they could speak, Butler Qin came back. He looked at the cart beside him and shook his head, saying, "Madam, Miss, everything has been arranged, but that thing cannot be done for the time being."

Qin Yunxi knew that he was talking about the cart. Seeing that someone was already checking the time, she estimated that the time was almost up, so she immediately asked the maid beside He Youxin to bandage her calves, and then changed a pair of comfortable cloth shoes for herself and her children.

The old lady of the Fu family is from another place, and they may have just learned the news. Although Li Mutong's family was not sentenced to exile, they were also implicated. The uncle who was the head of the Li family lost his official position, so a housekeeper came to her family and gave her some silver bills and food.
