Early the next morning.

With Pei Cong looking after him, Su Li went to the mule and horse shop and ordered two of the best and most comfortable carriages.

After asking the owner of the mule and horse shop, and following his recommendation, she went to the escort agency next door and hired two escorts to serve as her bodyguards.

The journey was long, and she had to be careful when traveling with Pei Ji, who had difficulty walking, and a young child.

After thinking about it, he went to a blacksmith shop not far away and bought a handy iron rod and a dagger that was easy to hide.

Then he went to a furniture shop and ordered two crutches.

Then I went to buy various items I would need on the way to Qiongzhou.

Qiongzhou is located at the junction of the north and the south. The weather was probably very cold at this time, so she went to buy winter clothes that were of excellent material and warmth-keeping properties.

"Sister-in-law, you're back?" Pei Cong's wife, Li, and Pei Xiuli came out of the kitchen. Li said, "Father-in-law and Pei Cong are with my eldest brother."

The father and his two sons were talking in the study, so Su Li didn't go over. He rolled up his sleeves and cooked with Li.

While cooking, Pei Xiuli would occasionally secretly glance at Su Li. How could this bitch be so different from before? Her skin was as white as snow, even whiter than when she first married her eldest brother. She looked like a lady from a wealthy family in the city who had never touched women since childhood.

Could it be because he moved to town? Or was it because of the evil spirit within him?

Speaking of evil spirits, two months are almost up, and the evil spirits in this woman's body will soon be gone. When the time comes, let's see how she will deal with her?

She insisted on making her wash her clothes every day, making her come home every day to chop firewood for their whole family, and making her turn back into the ugly black and yellow monster she used to be.

She was born with dark skin, and she used to hate women with snow-white skin the most, huh!

Knowing that they were going to Qiongzhou to seek medical treatment, Pei Cheng left another hundred taels of silver for Pei Ji when he left after lunch.

Pei Ji handed her the banknote and said, "The journey to Qiongzhou is long and the journey may be dangerous. Go to the escort agency and hire two escorts to accompany you."

"Hmm?" Su Li took the banknote and said with a smile, "What a coincidence! When I went to order the carriage just now, I had already hired two escorts."

Pei Ji was surprised for a moment. He didn't expect her to be so thoughtful. So he nodded and let her make her own arrangements.

In the afternoon, when Su Li was about to go to the furniture store to retrieve his crutches, he happened to meet several classmates from Pei Ji Academy who came to visit him at the door.

"Madam Pei, do you still remember me? We met last time at Wencheng Academy."

"Of course I remember, Mr. Lin." Su Li greeted with a smile, but she didn't recognize anyone except Lin Muyang.

Lin Muyang said, "We are all classmates of Pei Ji. We heard that he was injured, so we came to visit him."

Then he asked worriedly, "How is Pei Ji?"

"Everything else is fine, except for a broken leg. The doctor said it will take three or four months to heal."

She didn't plan to tell anyone except a few close people who knew about Pei Ji's true injury. In case Pei Ji couldn't be cured, she would have to follow the original book and hide the truth for him so that he could participate in the scientific examination.

It's not that she has a mean mind. Classmates can be friends or competitors, so one must be on guard against others. Of course, the fewer people who know Pei Ji's true injury, the better.

"Three or four months?" Lin Muyang breathed a sigh of relief, a look of relief on his face. "That's not bad. The Spring Examination is in February next year, so there's still half a year left. It won't be delayed."

Several others echoed in agreement.

Then Su Li invited a few people in. Pei Ji had difficulty walking, so he could only ask a few classmates to come into the study to see him.

When they got to the yard, she made the excuse that Pei Ji had just fallen asleep and asked them to wait for a while while she went to see if he was awake.

Because she had not agreed with Pei Ji in advance to hide her injury, she was afraid that he would reveal it.

In the study, Pei Ji was sitting at the desk reading a book.

Wow! How hardworking!

Su Li sighed inwardly.

"Your classmates are here to see you. The one called Lin Muyang, and there are several others I don't recognize. They're in the yard."

Pei Ji paused and said, "My legs and feet are not very convenient, please ask them to come in."

"They asked about your leg injury outside the door, and I said it would heal in three or four months..."

Pei Ji was stunned for a moment, and stared at her for a long time with an unclear meaning.

Su Li frowned. What did he mean? Did he disapprove of her actions? In the original novel, Pei Ji wasn't so innocent. Or were those people outside actually classmates whom he completely trusted?

She couldn't help but ask, "What's wrong? What's the problem?"

Pei Ji shook his head slightly, a smile appearing on his face: "That's exactly what I was thinking..."

Oh! She said it!

"Okay, then I'll go and invite them in..."

"Um."

"Pei Ji, how are you? Are you okay?" As soon as he entered the room, Lin Muyang was the first to walk to the bedside. He sat on the edge of the bed very casually. It seemed that he had a very good relationship with Pei Ji.

"I'm fine..."

A few people were afraid of delaying Pei Ji's recovery, so they didn't stay for long. They just said a few words of greeting and left.

After Su Li sent the few people out, he went directly to the furniture shop to get a crutch, and then went to the clinic where Pei Ji was receiving treatment, wanting to ask him about some precautions in detail to avoid any accidents on the road.

As soon as I reached the corner of the clinic, I saw a man walking out of it.

Su Li remembered him; he was one of the classmates who had just come to visit Pei Ji.

But she didn't know his name.

The other party left in a hurry, so she didn't say hello and went straight into the clinic.

Afterwards, I went to the market to buy some meat and vegetables. It’s so convenient to live in a town. You can eat fresh meat and vegetables every day. If you don’t want to cook, you can go out to eat.

As soon as I got home, I saw Zhang Yaoyue standing at the door with red eyes.

As soon as he saw her, he asked directly without any hesitation: "Where is Brother Pei? Where is he? How is he?"

If she hadn't just overheard what her brother said at home, she wouldn't have known that something had happened to Brother Pei.

This tone, this attitude.

Su Li was very unhappy.

It would be fine if she was gentle and obedient, but if Pei Ji wanted to marry her as a concubine in the future, she would be the first to disagree. How could she talk to the main wife?

"I'm asking you a question. How's Brother Pei?"

Meeting Su Li's half-smile in her eyes, Zhang Yaoyue was furious. This damn bitch still didn't care about Brother Pei as always.

If she wasn't really worried about Brother Pei, why would she come here and suffer the anger of this bitch!

Su Li raised the corner of her lips and asked calmly, "Miss Zhang, I'd like to ask you, in what capacity do you come to inquire about Pei Ji's affairs?"

Zhang Yaoyue paused for a moment, her temper rising. She angrily said, "What is my status? Yes, I have no status, but what about you? As Brother Pei's wife, do you really care about him? Do you ever ask when he's in a bad mood? Do you feel sorry for him when he's hurt? Look at your indifferent attitude, you don't love him at all!"

Su Li said indifferently: "That's my business, what does it have to do with you?"

What's there to feel sorry for? She is not the original owner and she doesn't love Pei Ji.

Besides, Pei Ji didn't love the original owner, let alone her. They were all the same, so they could just live together.
