Shen Jia returned to the team, and before she could sit down, Shen Ci asked anxiously: "Sister, why did you go to find those two rough guys? What did they say to you?"

Seeing everyone's curious eyes, Shen Jia told them what he had done: "Just now, I saw that everyone was having trouble swallowing, so I asked the two officers to let us go to the nearby river to fetch water.

I've agreed, but only two of us can go.

To prevent people from worrying about us running away, shall I go with my uncle?"

This statement was so reasonable that Shen Ci couldn't find any reason to refute it for a moment.

An unmarried girl and the third uncle who has the highest fighting power in the team, this is indeed the most advantageous combination for everyone, but there is always a feeling of discomfort in my heart.

Finally, it was the grandfather, the head of the family, who spoke up: "Just listen to Jia Niang. You two go together."

Then, carrying the hopes of the people behind them, Shen Jia and Shen Hao walked towards the river together.

While Shen Hao was looking at him as if he were a monster, Shen Jia pulled out many pieces of oil paper of the same size from his arms, and then folded them into boxes that could hold water while walking.

Especially, it can be sealed at the end to prevent water leakage, which made Shen Hao next to him stunned.

Shen Hao scratched his head in confusion and asked, "Jia Niang, why do you still carry this kind of thing with you?

No wonder you look a little bloated compared to the first time I saw you. I thought the food in the mansion was better, and you gained weight.

These are the oil papers that Shen Jia had glued together in advance. As long as they are not damaged maliciously, they can be folded again along the creases to become a replacement water bag.

The only pity is that the oil paper making technology in ancient times was limited. If it was filled with water for a long time, the oil paper would become soft and then damaged.

Shen Jia made up an excuse and said, "Because I bought a lot of cakes when I went out yesterday, these are all the leftover oil paper. I thought they might be useful, so I took them with me.

Isn’t it? It’s just coming into play now.”

Shen Jia raised the oil paper box in his hand, then handed three to Shen Hao and kept two for himself.

The two men easily filled five boxes of water from the river and returned to the tree happily.

Looking at the things in the two people's hands, everyone was confused for a moment about where these things came from.

Seeing everyone showing the same expression as he just had, Shen Hao suddenly felt a sense of pride in his chest.

He quickly handed the water to his father and eldest brother, muttering, "These are all things that Jia Niang took out. She said she took them because she thought they were useful.

Jia Niang is so thoughtful. If it were me at that time, I would definitely be so panicked that I would just stand there.

I was wondering why Jia Niang was the last one to arrive at Songheyuan yesterday. It turns out she did this..."

There was no need for Shen Jia to explain himself, Shen Hao had already sorted out the whole process in his own mind and explained it clearly.

If Shen Jia wasn't the person involved, she would have thought that this was how the matter was.

This time, everyone looked at Shen Jia with more satisfaction, but Shen Ci always felt that something was strange. The whole thing was too coincidental, or was Shen Jia really so perceptive?

The look in the grandfather's eyes when he looked at Shen Jia was even more satisfying, he wished she was a man!

However, looking at the water that he needed most, Shen Ci had no evidence and drank it in small sips from the water box.

In order to make it easier to drink water, Shen Jia and Shen Yue shared a water box. Just now at the river, Shen Jia had already drunk enough water for his body today.

So she put the water in Shen Yue's hand, and looked at Shen Jia who didn't glare at her. For the first time, Shen Yue really realized how naive she was.

Not only did she not take care of her elders along the way, but she also needed others to take care of her emotions all the time. Even Shen Jia, whom she always disliked and treated her badly, was taking care of her.

Shen Yue, who clearly felt that she had cried all her tears in this life, suddenly felt that her eyes were about to get out of control again.

Looking at Shen Jia standing beside him, something was about to come out of his mouth, but in the end it just trembled a few times before returning to calm.

Everyone managed to eat something with water, but the food rations were limited, so they had to eat sparingly.

After a good rest, Yu Nan patted Wu An on the shoulder and signaled him to wake up the Shen family.

Wu An was very excited, feeling that he had been assigned an independent task. He quickly walked to the tree where Shen Jia and the others were resting and shouted:

"It's time to set off. Get up quickly."

The group of prisoners had no chance to make any comments, so while it was still early, they continued to head north.

Finally, when the sun was about to disappear in the mountains, the group arrived at a village.

Yu Nan took out the token from his chest and asked the villagers to arrange a suitable place for them to rest.

That night, Yu Nan and Wu An slept in a room next door, while the Shen family was placed in an abandoned wooden shed next door, with a chain tied to the door to prevent them from escaping.

It was not bad, and it could be considered a place that could shelter from the wind and rain. Shen Jia emptied his mind and fell into a deep sleep.

Shen Yue, who was standing by, heard her fall asleep so quickly and thought indignantly: Why is Shen Jia so heartless?

He could fall asleep so quickly in such a bad environment, unlike me who had no desire to sleep at all.

But after a day of long journey, the body was already exhausted. Shen Yue was immediately slapped in the face as soon as she finished saying this. After a while, she fell asleep listening to Shen Jia's breathing.

The next morning, they started their journey before daybreak. Since they hadn't done any stretching exercises the night before, Shen Jia felt sore all over.

Walking felt like walking on sharp blades. Even though she had specially changed into thick-soled shoes and stuffed them with cotton pads, she could now guess that the blisters on her feet must have burst.

Now we can’t apply medicine in time. If we continue walking like this for another day, the situation will definitely be more serious tomorrow.

But now is not a good time to discuss things. Shen Jia continued walking while enduring the severe pain.

The other female members of the family were in a similar situation to Shen Jia. Today, Old Madam Shen was carried on the back of her third uncle, as she no longer had the ability to walk.

But Uncle San was carrying the person on his back and his speed was not very fast, but the two officers did not show any dissatisfaction. It seemed that they were mentally prepared for today's situation.

Moreover, the team started to rest before noon. It seemed that leaving early this morning was their preferential treatment to the Shen family.

Shen Jia endured the severe pain in his feet and came to Yu Nan again.

Yu Nan looked at Shen Jia, who had a painful expression, and chuckled, "I wonder if Miss Shen has anything to do with us today?"

It was obvious that this old fox was determined to get the money that Shen Jia had, and he did not hide the greed in his eyes at all.

Shen Jia didn't waste any words, and handed over another banknote, saying with a wry smile:

"Our family has never walked for such a long time, so we are experiencing some physical discomfort. I wonder if we can find a suitable place to rest tonight?"

In fact, the officers have their own rules for doing things. They will walk at the fastest speed on the first day, then slow down and let the prisoners rest, and then speed up again.

Otherwise, it would be impossible to reach the destination at the time written in the decree.

Even if Shen Jia didn't say it today, they would have gone to bed early, but with the money, they could have a real room to rest tonight.

In the evening, I passed by a sparsely populated village and knocked on the door several times before I found a place to rest.

At night, the Shen family still stayed in a strictly controlled room, but this time they didn't have to blow cold air at night.

Shen Jia took out a small packet of powder wrapped in oil paper from his arms, which contained the best gold wound medicine, and carefully took his feet out of his shoes.

After the blister burst, the pus and wound that flowed out directly stuck the socks and cotton pad together, and the foot and insole were pulled out together.

Gently tear off the stuck cotton pad, then take off the socks to reveal the horrible wound, slightly shake the powder on your hand, and apply the medicine directly.

Finally, tear open the socks and wrap your feet tightly to prevent any medicine powder from being wasted.

Because Shen Jia was applying the medicine secretly in a corner, no one else noticed her abnormality.

Because almost everyone in the room no longer cared about the words of sages, and they all started to check their weather-beaten soles.

Especially Shen's mother, who had lived a life of luxury for decades. She was neither as young and strong as Shen Jia and Shen Yue, nor did she have to be carried on someone's back like Old Madam Shen.

Now a person was in the corner next to Shen Jia, enduring the severe pain to check the injury. Anyway, the medicine was bought with Shen's mother's dowry money.

She moved closer to Mother Shen’s position, looked at her forehead which was covered in cold sweat due to the pain, and her pale lips, and whispered:

"Mom, I went out for a while.

Because I heard from Su Yue that my grandmother was not in good health, and I happened to be familiar with Dr. Jin from Jishidiang, I bought some medicine to treat headaches and rheumatism.

There are also some pills for health, and some medicine for injuries that people gave me. I have already used them, so you should take some medicine now."

Then he opened the oil paper in his hand and was about to pour the powder on the soles of Shen's mother's feet. The stimulating pain immediately spread from the soles of her feet to her brain. Shen's mother had never experienced such pain and could not help but groan.

The cold sweat on his head kept pouring down, and he asked weakly, "Because I didn't have time to give the gift to grandma, so you just happened to bring it with you?"

"Yes, Miss Xu and I played for a long time that day and came home late, so we didn't have time to give the things to my grandmother and father."

Shen Jia used the conversation to attract Shen's mother's attention, and then wrapped Shen's mother's wound in the same way as he did himself.

Then he handed the things he bought to Old Lady Shen and took the Ginseng Nourishing Pills. His complexion was indeed much better.

Everyone praised her for being thoughtful. She happened to encounter so many coincidences. Otherwise, with such a long distance, how could the elderly lady hold on?

Tonight, Shen Jia did not forget to stretch his muscles. He endured the aches and pains from all over his body and continued to exercise according to the tutorial, which made Shen Yue beside him feel a little suffocated.

Not only did Shen Jia steal her limelight as soon as he came back, but he also kept showing off his shallow knowledge in order to showcase the noble things she had learned in the Marquis' Mansion over the past ten years.

Not wanting to look at the angry Shen Yue, he turned his head and fell asleep.

After waking up, there was another long journey ahead. Today, there was even a place that required climbing, which made Shen Jia feel sad.

After finally climbing to the highest point, I saw a long team not far away. Each carriage was pulling four or five wooden boxes, and it looked like they were going on a long journey.

Shen Jia, watching this scene, thought: It seems that we have finally arrived at a place thirty miles away from Shengjing City.
