"We finally managed to get out and buy some clothes, so cheer up!"

Bai took a few deep breaths.

She raised her head and smiled at Lin Ru!

"Yes! I'm so lucky! My daughter and son are both so capable, they can even earn money to buy clothes for their mother!"

"Mom! I'm so happy!"

The group chatted for a few more minutes.

A woman came out and took their measurements!

After taking the measurements, the waiter brought out the clothes in less than half an hour!

Lin Ru guessed correctly; this was definitely not a custom order!

That's why when I first saw their clothes were patched up, I felt they couldn't afford to buy new ones, so I didn't want to waste my breath trying to persuade them!

Only after we said it was custom-made did we make them back down!

Lin Ru picked up the clothes and touched the fabric!

The fabric of the clothes here is really comfortable!

The rough cloth of the outer garment was indeed prickly to the touch!

Bai picked up the clothes and looked them over from side to side, then gestured to Lin Ru and the others.

They're all a little bit bigger!

Lin Ru and the others have grown up too fast!

A bit bigger would be just right!

After buying these items, Lin Ru led the four of them to a shoe store!

Everyone bought six pairs of shoes!

The two pairs of shoes I bought for Lin Bai and the others were just right, two pairs were one size too big, and two pairs were two sizes too big!

I bought several more pairs of insoles!

They always choose the ones that are comfortable to buy!

When fleeing famine, even though we had donkey carts, we were still afraid of encountering rugged and uneven mountain roads!

We'll still have to rely on our own two legs to get around!

After buying these, I went and bought two thin cotton quilts!

I bought three more large pieces of oilcloth! They'll be both rainproof and moisture-proof!

Lin Bai was somewhat puzzled when he saw his elder sister buying so much oilcloth!

"Elder sister! Our trip to Grandfather's house will only take a few days!"

"We probably don't need that many tarpaulins, do we?"

Bai also chimed in!

"Yes, daughter!"

"We don't need these things, and we don't need to buy them all here."

"Rongnian County has everything too."

Since they seemed a bit suspicious, Lin Ru decided to give them a heads-up beforehand!

"Haven't you noticed? Things haven't been very peaceful lately?"

Bai and her sons exchanged glances and shook their heads.

"No! It feels quite peaceful!"

"The new magistrate is very good, and the officials are very efficient!"

"Moreover, I heard that the Marquis of Zhenxi has rendered great service on the border! He will soon be going to the capital to receive his reward!"

Lin Ru sighed helplessly; indeed, this war had happened rather suddenly!

Who could have imagined that the seemingly honest and loyal Marquis of Zhenxi would launch a palace coup after returning to the capital from this war victory to receive his title and rewards, and then use the emperor to command the other lords!

However, this emperor was also incompetent and tyrannical, and actually took a fancy to the wife and daughter of the Marquis of Zhenxi!

I want to enjoy her beauty!

It can only be said that the Jing Kingdom's fortunes have come to an end!

And the location they were in happened to be the fiefdom of the Marquis of Zhenxi!

As soon as news of a palace coup breaks, the remaining three marquises and five kings will launch a war to annex the territory of the Marquis of Zhenxi!

And they used the guise of serving the emperor to seize power!

And so, chaos ensued!

But she couldn't say these things!

She had no choice but to use Ji Wenxuan's name to let them know the dangers involved!

She looked around, but there was no one there!

She whispered.

"Mother! I didn't want you to worry, but I have to tell you now."

"Lord Ji told me in secret that the world is about to descend into chaos, and the Marquis of Zhenxi is about to rebel!"

"Let's prepare in advance!"

Even if you don't believe me, you should at least believe the government!

Bai covered her mouth in horror!

Lin Bai and the other two were also very surprised!

"My God! How can this be? Is this real?"

"how so?"

Lin Ru realized that they were indeed terrified.

She took several people's hands and clasped them together!

"So we need to be prepared, and luckily we have some extra money on hand!"

"These essential items must be prepared, and even if nothing happens in the end, we will still need these things in our daily lives!"

Bai still looked incredulous.

Lin Mo has recovered his senses!

He looked around warily!

"Elder sister! This is not the place to talk!"

"Let's hurry up and buy the things and go back. No matter what, we should go to Grandpa's house first and then discuss it!"

Lin Bai also came to his senses.

"Yes! Anyway, we still have some money left over! It's good to buy more things to keep on hand. If we don't use them all, we can give them to our maternal grandparents!"

Bai Shi also figured it out!

So she took Lin Ru and the others to buy some fried rice and dried meat that can be stored for a long time!

I also bought some brown rice, salt, and other things!

These things were all bought by Bai Shi. Lin Ru was afraid that if she went in to buy them again, she would be exposed!

Lin Qing saw a candy shop next door and couldn't move away!

Lin Ru pointed to the candy shop and asked Lin Qing!

"Do you want some candy?"

Lin Qing nodded, then immediately shook his head!

"Actually, I didn't really want to eat it that much. I was just curious about what it tasted like. I saw Tiezhu and the others eat it before!"

"I picked up their candy wrappers and licked them! But I couldn't taste anything!"

Lin Ru felt a pang of heartache upon hearing this!

Immediately take him into the candy shop!

Pointing to the various kinds of candy on it.

"Shopkeeper! Give me five catties of each kind of candy!"

The shopkeeper, who had been half-closing his eyes, was wide awake upon hearing this!

He sat up abruptly, looking at Lin Ru with a smile!

"Young lady, this is the best candy shop in Huiwu County! We have the most variety! These candies are very expensive! One pound costs two hundred and sixty coins! Are you sure you want five pounds of each kind?"

Upon hearing this, Lin Qing exclaimed, "It costs 260 coins per jin!"

He quickly grabbed his sister's sleeve to stop her!

"Eldest sister! Don't buy it, it's too expensive!"

"I didn't actually want to eat that much!"

"My mother told me that eating too much sugar will cause toothache!"

Lin Ru affectionately patted Lin Qing!

"It's okay! I'll buy it for you! But you have to leave these candies with me first!"

You can only have two pills a day!

"That way my tooth won't hurt anymore!"

Upon hearing Lin Ru's words, the shopkeeper immediately began to pack the candy!

Nine kinds of candy in total!

Five pounds of each!

A total of eleven taels and seven mace!

Lin Qing felt so heartbroken that she couldn't breathe when she saw the money she had paid out!

Lin Ru found it somewhat amusing to see his face contorted in a grimace!

She especially wanted to tell her Lin Qing that in her time, there was a kind of candy called the Candy Assassin!

It looks cheap, but they actually sell it by weight!

She patted Lin Qing's head reassuringly.

"Alright, since you've already bought it, don't look so gloomy."

"Besides, this isn't just for you to eat. None of us in the family have ever tried this before, so it's something new for us!"

Lin Qing could only force herself to stop thinking about money and focus only on the candy!

That's a little better!

Lin Ru then took Lin Qing to a pastry shop to buy some snacks, and finally met up with Bai Shi!

Bai looked at the candy and pastries that Lin Ru was carrying!

Although she felt a little sorry for her, she didn't say anything, after all, this money was earned by her daughter through hard work!

My daughter can spend money however she wants, and buy whatever she wants!

Thinking about what her daughter had said, Bai went and bought some needles and thread!

There's also some fabric!

In case of war, if her clothes or shoes get torn during her escape, she can mend them properly!

Once everything was bought, Bai and the others immediately headed into the village!

They plan to leave tonight and go back early to pack their things!

But somewhere unseen by them, someone was following them from a distance!
