Chapter 19: Entering the Mountains

Chen Nan's face turned pale with anger.

She raised her legs to block the spring rain and said in a deep voice, "Go do it."

Chun Yu thought for two seconds, and finally agreed: "Yes, Miss."

Han held the child in her arms, her face filled with anger, her chest rising and falling. She pointed at the two of them with her right hand and said:

"How dare you treat the Su family's heirloom like this?"

"Don't forget! He is the only male in the Su family!"

Chen Nan smiled instead of getting angry, walked straight to her, leaned over and patted the child's fair face, and said quietly:

"Mother, don't forget. I just risked my life to stop this child."

Han's eyes flashed, "Of course it should be so. If the Su family has no legitimate son, what do you think you can do as a woman?"

"Do you want to destroy the bridge?"

"I hope you can always consider your brother."

"What a joke! He's just a baby who can only cry and can't even talk. You want me to respect him? Are you going to abandon the lives of everyone in the Su family?!"

Chen Nan completely broke off relations with her and refused to give in.

"Su Chengnan! So what if you are the head of the family?!

"Don't forget, you are just a woman! In the future, you will have to rely on your brother to make a living in the world."

"Yeah?"

Chen Nan curled the corners of her mouth, her eyes dropped to freezing point, she drew the sword with her right hand, the tip of the sword pointed directly at the young master's forehead. If she used just a little bit more force, the child would be dead.

"You dare?!" Han was hysterical.

"Why shouldn't I dare?" Chen Nan's hands trembled. "I'll kill him and throw his body into the cave. I'm afraid those eunuchs and soldiers will even thank me."

"Then you can't run away either."

"My mother has already said that I am just a woman, so why am I running away?"

Han's eyes were filled with poison, and he wished he could cut her body with a thousand knives, but unfortunately the person in front of him was immune to all poisons.

"Su Linhua! Your mother and your brother are about to be killed, and you're just going to watch? Are the rest of you dead?!"

Lin Hua played with the dagger in his hand.

The maids and servants around all bowed their heads.

In fact, anyone with a discerning eye could see that the eldest lady had no real intention of taking the lives of the lady and the young master. Otherwise, why would he have risked disobeying the emperor's order in the first place?

The lady is confused, and they cannot follow suit and risk their lives.

Nanny Han is an old lady. She ran out to plead, "Young Miss is right. The road ahead will be difficult. We should hurry up and travel."

"Please, young lady, please be merciful and allow me to persuade Madam. It's just two boxes of luggage. We servants don't need to take anything."

Chen Nan put away his sword and said, "Hurry up! We will set off in one stick of incense!"

"Yes! Miss!"

Originally, Chen Nan was planning to talk to Han about the gold matter, hoping to play a deception in front of her, but after her unreasonable behavior, Chen Nan felt that acting forcefully could save him a lot of trouble.

"Second sister! Let's go! We'll pack our own bags."

"Eldest sister, go first. I'll be there in a moment."

Chen Nan pushed the storage box that Chunyu had packed earlier to the ground and poured out everything inside. With a clang, a lot of gold fell to the ground, which was very eye-catching!

…

She really didn't know what to say.

Why do you hide such a small thing in the box instead of thinking about the mountains of gold and silver inside? What does this mean? !

Chen Nan couldn't understand it, and Lin Hua couldn't figure it out either.

After a long time, Chen Nan just wanted to express her gratitude to God for blessing her with an exceptionally reliable golden finger. Space is really a must-have for travel!

She picked up the empty box and left, saying one more thing.

"Mother, please don't dawdle any longer. If you don't leave after one stick of incense, then you can stay here with your brother."

"you……"

Lin Hua blocked Han's sight in time and said seriously:

"Mother, please listen to my advice. The road ahead is long and arduous. If we disobey your order, we will be sentenced to death. This is a road to escape, not a road to a picnic!"

"But your brother..."

Han's lips moved, but in the end she said nothing.

"Hurry up and don't let my mother hesitate any longer."

"Also! All the money that needs to be hidden should be hidden in one box. If there is an emergency, you can sort it out and keep the most valuable one."

"Yes, Second Miss!"

Lin Hua pointed to the empty box by the wall, and the maid quickly brought it to her and wiped it for her considerately.

"Yes, thanks."

"Miss...you're too polite." The maid was flattered.

Lin Hua quickly shut up, annoyed at how he could never remember the character. She pursed her lips tightly and hurried to find Chen Nan.

When she arrived, Chen Nan had almost finished cleaning up.

There were two full boxes, half filled with gold and half filled with silver. As for jewelry, silver bills and the like, they were stuffed in wherever there was room.

All the rest of the things were thrown into the space and asked Su Weimin to clean them up. Anyway, it's all his money, so he is very happy.

Lin Hua stacked the empty boxes, then turned around and called for someone to move them.

Chen Nan deliberately pushed the door as wide as possible so that people could see clearly what was inside. Except for the two boxes, nothing else was moved.

"Miss, aren't you taking these with you?"

"Only two boxes?"

Chunyu chased over breathlessly and asked cautiously.

"Keep it. Money is what you have to live with. Too much money will attract thieves."

"Yes, Miss, what you said makes sense."

In front of everyone, Chen Nan closed the door of the secret room and locked it with a key. Although she felt that the lock was useless, she still pretended to do it in front of others.

Several people carried the box out.

The timing was almost perfect.

"Everyone moved all the extra stuff over here and blocked the door."

"Yes, Miss!"

Seeing that Han was still sitting beside the bed in a bad mood, Lin Hua winked at Chen Nan and said, "Sister, I can't call the secret guards. Why don't you go?"

"Okay, I'll go call them in."

"OK."

Chen Nan returned to the village, inspected it personally, and then set it on fire. The fire spread rapidly and soon covered large areas.

Jiayi appeared with his men fully armed.

"Master!"

"Let's go. The Su family will make a comeback in other places in the future."

"yes!"

They escorted Chen Nan back to the secret room.

The group evacuated quickly through the secret passage with their luggage.

Half an hour later, everyone came out of a cave in the back mountain.

Chen Nan brushed off the dust on her shoulders and flew to the tree with her life armor.

"Eldest sister, are you not afraid of heights anymore?"

“I’m afraid…but I can see far if I stand high.”

Jiayi is an extremely silent person who only knows how to follow orders. Since the master asked him to fly, he flew.

"My apologies, Miss."

"ah……"

Before Chen Nan was ready, he grabbed his shoulders and lifted him into the air.

The fire had completely started.

Many farmers discovered the fire through the deliberate reminders of the secret guards.

Zhuangzi is close to the mountain, but there is a stream about seven or eight meters wide in the middle. The fire could not enter the mountains or burn farmers' homes. The only thing that was burned was all traces of the Su family's life in the village.

Standing on the top of the tree, the autumn wind is blowing and the leaves are rustling under my feet.

Chen Nan looked at the countless autumn sea leaves swaying under his feet, and suddenly felt like he wanted to dominate the world.

She asked Jiayi: "Do you know how far Ningguta is from here?"
