Chapter 142 The sudden appearance of the starving ghost...

Of course, this is just her own assumption.

After so many days of living together, she has completely integrated into this harmonious and loving family. Leaving may be the biggest regret in her life, and she is reluctant to let go!

Gu Yanchen knew what she meant and didn't want to put too much pressure on her.

"Now that my injuries have healed, there are many things I should do. Since those people don't want Fourth Brother to be discovered, he must be safe for now. It won't be too late to make a long-term plan after we reach the northwest."

"Okay, I'll be with you no matter what time it is."

"Um!"

The two returned hand in hand. Fifth sister-in-law, who saw this scene for the first time, was a little surprised by Gu Yanchen's change.

After hearing her sister-in-law's explanation, Fang Jin felt happy for the two of them from the bottom of her heart. If Xuan'er hadn't been still unconscious, she probably wouldn't have been able to resist making a few jokes.

...

The team was urged to set off by the officials. Since Xuan'er was injured and could not bear the bumpy ride, Madam Gu stayed with Xuan'er to prevent her from waking up suddenly and being frightened.

Most of the things in the donkey cart were moved onto the cart, and the donkey moved very fast.

The Chen and Xiao families were very grateful for the Gu family's care along the way, so they were the ones who had been pulling the carts.

The fourth sister-in-law and the fifth sister-in-law sat in the front of the donkey cart. Due to the fright they had received last night, they were still tense and fell asleep wrapped in a blanket not long after sitting in the cart.

As Ran Qingxuan looked at the whole happy family, he became more determined to find his third and fourth brothers!

Today the Gu family is reunited. After a tiring day of travel, Bu Wei also ordered them to stop and rest in the evening.

Sister-in-law Wu watched as everyone skillfully set up tents, made fires, and fetched water, and she was inevitably shocked by this harmonious scene.

Moreover, the men from the Chen and Xiao families left straight away, and the police didn't even look at them. Isn't it said that exiled prisoners have no freedom?

Seeing Fang Jin's expression, the sister-in-law said with relief.

"All this is thanks to our Sixth Sister-in-law. You should know that along the way, Sixth Sister-in-law not only protected our family the whole time, but also provided us with better tents to sleep in and better meals than others."

Then Zhou Furong recounted the great achievements of Ran Qingxuan along the way. The fifth sister-in-law was also curious about Ran Qingxuan, whom she had only met a few times.

Her impression of Ran Qingxuan still remained on the night before his exile, his pale, bloodless face, his thin body, and his sixth brother's cold attitude towards her...

But now...

"Qingxuan, what are we having for dinner tonight?"

"Since our fourth and fifth sisters-in-law are back, let's celebrate today by making sweet and sour spare ribs, as well as the braised fish that our sisters-in-law and mother love to eat."

"Don't forget the grilled fish."

"Then you have to go catch fish, or you won't have anything to eat!"

"good."

Listening to the conversation between the two and watching them walking side by side towards the river, Fang Jin opened his mouth so wide that he almost swallowed an egg!

Is this still the sixth brother she knew?

"This...what did I miss..."

"There are so many things you haven't seen. You'll get used to them slowly."

The sister-in-law went to help light the fire. Fang Jin was shocked for a moment and then helped to make the bed for tonight.

The area around where the team set up camp today is relatively empty. Apart from a narrow stream in front, there are very few trees around.

Gu Yanchen had been in the river for a long time but only caught five fish weighing two kilograms. Now the water was getting colder and Ran Qingxuan was afraid that he would catch a cold, so after the sixth fish was thrown ashore, he immediately stopped him.

"That's enough. It's getting harder and harder to catch fish these days. Just enough to eat. Come up quickly."

"Okay, right away."

While walking towards the shore, Gu Yanchen quickly caught another three-pound crucian carp.

The two men were walking back with the cleaned fish. When they passed by the team of officials, Bu Wei said with a smile.

"Oh, it seems you are lucky today, these fish are quite fat."

Whenever he came across a stream along the way, Gu Yanchen would go down and catch some fish to improve the food. The officials would naturally benefit from it, and over time they became more greedy.

Whenever the Gu family improves their food, they will always come forward to share a piece of the pie.

Ran Qingxuan was also happy to exchange a meal for their favor. Hearing the hidden meaning in Bu Wei's words, she also spoke as if she was chatting with them.

"It's getting harder and harder to catch fish. When you're done, give the officer two as a side dish."

"That's a good feeling."

Bu Wei was not polite either. If he was not thick-skinned, he would not be able to eat the fish.

The fifth sister-in-law was shocked again by the attitude of the officials. They didn't look like officials at all; they were just country neighbors chatting about family matters.

The fish brought back were not big enough, but there were enough of them. The second sister-in-law was still in charge of making braised fish, and the task of grilling fish fell on Ran Qingxuan.

As soon as the ingredients were sprinkled, the fragrance spread far away, and at the same time, a black head suddenly popped out from the grass on the roadside.

"What's delicious to eat? Give me something!"

"Oh my god, it's a ghost!"

The officer leaning against the bushes screamed in fear, jumped up instantly and drew the sword from his waist.

"What dares to scare me? Get out now!"

The families who heard the noise immediately looked in the direction where the officials were sitting in the light of the fire, and saw a black figure slowly standing up, his gray clothes blending perfectly with the dry grass.

After the women in the Gu family saw this scene, the timid third sister-in-law was almost scared to tears.

"What should I do? Is he a starving ghost..."

"We're not going to be eaten!"

Although Ran Qingxuan, as a doctor, should be a staunch atheist, she still felt uneasy when the black shadow slowly stood up.

But just after the black shadow stretched lazily, Ran Qingxuan realized that it was a passerby lying in the grass and sleeping.

But they had been here for half an hour and hadn't noticed the man, which showed that the officers were pretty tough...

As for them being so far away, they couldn't be found at all...

"What delicious food are you making? I've been hungry for days. Can you give me some?"

A black shadow walked out from the dry grass and walked straight past the officers towards the Gu family.

The ignored officers felt nervous and immediately got ready to stop the man.

"Who are you? Outsiders are not allowed to approach the exile team!"

"Oh, so you guys are exiled prisoners... But what did you cook? It smells so good, can you give me some?"

Ran Qingxuan:...

This guy seems to be more fierce...

When the officers saw him appear out of nowhere and ignore their questions, Bu Wei immediately stepped forward to arrest him.

In the next second, in the blink of an eye, the four officers and Bu Wei were all knocked to the ground. The people standing there clapped their hands and suddenly stretched out their hands and walked towards the Gu family.

"Give me something to eat, I'm so hungry after all the activities..."

The hoarse voice and the action of trying to reach something instantly scared the third sister-in-law to tears.

"Don't come over here, we are not tasty... Don't eat us..."
