Su Yin walked up to the two of them and said in a low voice, "Mother, aunt, it's time to go wash up."

Hearing this, the two of them raised their heads and nodded at her.

After the three of them had washed up, Su's mother stayed by the river to wash dirty clothes, and Su Xiaozhong held a torch to light her way.

Su Yin and Su Baozhu sat by the fire. Everything was so calm and normal, as if Xu Lanzhi had never appeared.

Outsiders didn't even know that the man who stole the horse and escaped had ever returned to the team.

The next day, everything was back to normal. Su's mother couldn't help but go to the river to check. Under the surging river water, everything was calm.

Boxing, fighting, cooking, packing, everything goes on as usual.

Su Yin did not urge everyone to leave quickly, but followed the procedure and did what needed to be done.

As usual, we set off at 1:05 a.m.

As soon as they left, the people behind them followed one after another and left this place.

Having washed up yesterday, everyone felt refreshed and were talking and laughing on the way.

In three days, they will be able to reach Shangjing City.

As for the personal guards of Marquis Shunyi, they walked south for half a day until dark. They asked many refugees on the way, and all of them said that they had not seen the woman who ran away alone.

The subordinate couldn't help but ask, "Sir, is the young lady heading north?"

The captain of the guard did not want to admit that he had made a wrong judgment, but seeing that there was no result if he continued to pursue the matter, he had to admit, even if he was reluctant, that perhaps he had guessed wrong.

Miss Xu should go north!

She clearly wanted to flee Shangjing City, but she was running north. This was simply...

The captain of the guard didn't know whether to say she was smart or not.

Maybe she did it on purpose, to confuse herself.

This Miss Xu is really smart.

The head of the guard calmed himself down and said to the people below with a cold face, "Go, hurry back."

This escort team traveled all night and rested for only an hour. The place where they rested, whether it was fate or coincidence, happened to be where Su Yin and others camped.

They washed themselves with the river water, took a short rest, and then continued on their way.

Such a high-intensity journey brought them closer and closer to Su Yin and his group.

On the way north, they naturally interrogated many merchants and fleeing teams, but they did not get any information about Xu Lanzhi.

This team of people was extremely tired, and everyone looked exhausted.

They all knew that if they couldn't find Xu Lanzhi, they would face severe punishment when they returned.

After a short rest for two cups of tea, the group set off again.

The sound of horse hooves came from behind.

Su Yin and his group were walking in the front, so naturally they were not the first to notice it. Instead, the people following behind them were the first to notice it.

When they saw that group of people, they all frowned.

Everyone recognized each other and knew that they were a group of people not easy to mess with.

The chief of the guard stopped the people, rode on horseback, and asked condescendingly, "Have you seen our young lady? You have seen her before."

The guard captain stared at them with narrowed eyes. When asked about the man, he shrank his neck and said in a tight voice, "No, no."

People who go out usually carry their brains with them to some extent.

Even though he didn't use his brain before, after seeing the brutality of these people, he didn't dare to tell the truth to them.

Who knows what will be waiting for them after they say goodbye to them.

After all, it is better to have less trouble than more.

Didn’t they see what happened to the Zhang family who meddled in other people’s business?

With the lessons learned from the past, which family would dare to confess the truth without risking their lives?

The captain of the guard noticed the fear in his eyes and was very pleased. "If you see it, be sure to inform us."

After the captain of the guard left, he went to the house in front to ask.

Every company gave the same reply: I have never seen this before.

When it was Su Yin and his group's turn, the result was naturally the same.

Su Xiaozhong replied honestly: "I haven't seen it."

The chief guard looked him up and down with a scrutinizing gaze, "If you see this, take my young lady back to the Shunyi Marquis' Mansion in Shangjing City, and I will reward you handsomely."

"Of course, of course."

The captain of the guard took his men away.

No matter how many people they asked, they got the same result.

After the group of people left, Su Baozhu held her pounding heart and breathed a sigh of relief, "Finally they left."

She asked curiously, "Yinyin, why did you all speak with one voice without saying hello to the families behind you?"

If anyone leaked the information and mentioned that they had met Xu Lanzhi, it would be troublesome.

"We are all smart people and we know that less trouble is worse than more trouble. The lesson from the past is still there. Whoever dares to get involved in Xu Lanzhi's affairs is not afraid that this plague god will bring disaster to his family."

"I see." Su Baozhu drew inferences from one example, "If we take the lead and get everyone to agree on a statement, if there is any rumor in the future, they will shift their attention to us. It's better for everyone to agree, isn't it?"

Su Yin smiled and nodded, "That's right."

In two days, they will arrive in Shangjing City.

Su Xiaozhong looked at the boundary marker that appeared in front of him, and if he walked forward he would reach the border of the capital.

"Rest here today."

Su Yin saw that it was still early, and although she was confused, she knew her father well and knew there must be a reason.

"good."

If we stop here, the teams behind us will also stop.

My eldest cousin Yang Rong came over and asked, "Uncle, it's still early today, why did you stop to rest?"

"Go further and you'll reach the border of the capital city, which is not suitable for camping outdoors."

All the farmlands and forests around the capital city were owned by the powerful and wealthy, and ordinary people could not just pick them up for firewood.

As soon as their team stopped, the people behind them saw this, some of them looked at the sun and saw that it was still early, so they continued on their way.

As they passed by Su Yin and the others, both sides nodded slightly as a farewell.

Some people followed Su Yin and the others and stopped to settle down.

It was early and no one was in a hurry to work. They let the children play by themselves while the adults leisurely built a fire and set up the stove.

"Slow down, don't fall." The aunt-in-law shouted at the brother and sister who were chasing and playing.

"knew."

The two little ones responded with their mouths, but their steps did not slow down at all.

Xiao Taohua sneakily crawled under the car, and when she saw Su Yin coming, she made a hushing gesture to her.

Little Yang Gui was standing behind the tree counting down.

Look, the children are still happy.

Su Yin really wanted to tell her little cousin that if she hid under the car, she would be found immediately.

Xiao Taohua, who was hiding under the car, was attracted by something under the car as soon as she looked up.

“Huh.”

She reached under the car to pick something up, but couldn't get it out.

She crawled out from under the car and ran to Su Yin immediately, "Sister, there is something under the car."
