The caravan walked for two hours and then stopped to rest.
Gu Yang asked someone to bring them water and dry food.
Liu Qin was a little surprised. This...
If we follow the Gu family's caravan, not only can we not pay anything but we can also make a profit?
Were all the food and drinks along the way provided by the Gu family?
This Gu family... really opened her eyes.
"Thank you! But I have food myself, so I won't bother you." Liu Qin said as she took out some dry food from her bag.
She has enough to eat, so she won't take advantage of this.
She had already caused them trouble by following the Gu family's caravan, so how could she take advantage of them?
Nanny Gu didn't care about anything and directly stuffed the dry food into Liu Qin's hands. "Why are you being polite? The eldest young master said that since we let you come with us, there is no reason to let you go hungry!"
After she finished speaking, she turned around and distributed rations to the other guys.
Liu Qin: ...
The woman at the side explained, "Little girl, just take it! The Gu family is a well-known family in Youzhou City! They don't need this kind of thing."
Liu Qin smiled and handed the food in her hand to the little girl next to the woman. "Give it to the little sister. I have some dry food myself."
No reward without merit, this is the principle!
What does it matter to her that the Gu family is rich? She should just eat the dry food she prepared herself.
Seeing that Liu Qin was so principled, the woman couldn't help but admire him a little.
Seeing that Liu Qin did have some dry food, she didn't bother to be polite with Liu Qin.
"Lixia, this is for you, just take it." said the woman.
Liu Qin doesn't lack this dry food, but they do!
When they arrived in Youzhou, they didn't know whether they could find food.
Hearing this, Lixia stuffed Liu Qin's dry food into her bag. She smiled gratefully, "Thank you, sister! Sister! What's your name?"
"Me? Just call me Sister Qin'er. Why are you going to Youzhou?" Liu Qin chatted with them.
There are still three days left to get to Youzhou, so it would be nice to chat and kill some time.
The woman sighed, "Take the child back to my parents' home! My parents' home is in Chenjia Village, Youzhou City. After I got married, I moved to Fuzhou with my husband's family. My husband passed away a few days ago.
I have no children and was driven away by my husband's uncle, so I had no choice but to take my daughter back to my parents' home.
But this time, I don’t know if it will go smoothly.”
They are afraid that their parents’ home won’t accept them, and then they will be really left with nowhere to go.
Hearing this, Liu Qin felt a little uncomfortable.
There are so many people with unfortunate fates in this world, especially women!
This world is very unfair to women. There are very few women like Yang Xinlan who can successfully remarry and marry a husband who cares for them.
Most women are forced to marry twice or three times, and may never find a marriage that can truly make them happy.
"You don't have to be too pessimistic. Things will work out when the time comes. You will definitely get through this difficult time." Liu Qin could only encourage the other party.
She herself has no place to stay and cannot help them.
The woman smiled and said, "I hope so! What about you, Miss Qin'er? Why are you going to Youzhou?"
Liu Qin thought for a moment, "I went to Youzhou to look for my relatives! But... I don't know if I can find them. Since my mother passed away, I haven't had any contact with my aunt. I don't know if I can find her successfully on this trip."
Liu Qin made up a story. She couldn't say that she ran away to avoid the Regent, right?
If she said that, they would definitely be scared, and maybe even told others about it.
Hearing this, the woman shook her head gently, "You are also a pitiful person! If you can't find your aunt, if you have nowhere else to go, then come to Chenjia Village to find us!"
Although they may not be treated well by their natal families after returning, at least they have a place to shelter from the wind and rain and will not become beggars.
Liu Qin: ...
She looked at the woman with surprise. This woman was quite kind-hearted. She could hardly protect herself, but she still wanted to help others.
Liu Qin smiled and nodded, "Okay! Thank you very much."
"My name is Chen Xiu Lian! You can ask the villagers when the time comes." The woman continued.
Liu Qin nodded and said, "When I have the chance, I will come to visit you."
I didn't expect to feel so warm right after leaving Kyoto.
Although she didn't need Chen's shelter, she was still touched by Chen's words.
After she settles down, she will go to Chenjia Village to visit them.
If they need her help, she will help them.
Just think of it as their good deeds being rewarded.
Everyone rested for half an hour and then continued on their journey.
Along the way, Liu Qin could see that Chen was truly a kind-hearted person.
Chen not only cared about her, but also often helped the old couple.
Influenced by Chen, Liu Qin didn't want to meddle in other people's business, but she still took the old man's pulse, gave him acupuncture, and left a prescription for them.
After seven days, the old man felt much better.
Chen was a little surprised, "I didn't expect you to be so talented! You even know medicine!"
She originally thought that Liu Qin was just messing around, but she didn't expect that she could actually make the old man better!
Liu Qin: ...
She doesn't know any medicine, how could she do such a stupid thing?
"Aunt Chen, we'll be arriving in Youzhou soon. You and Lixia should take good care of yourselves! Here are some dry food, all for you." Liu Qin handed her bag of dry food to Chen.
Chen quickly evaded the question, "How can this be possible? If you give us the dry food, what will you eat?"
Liu Qin patted her other bag and said, "I still have some! Besides, by the time I find my aunt, these dry food will be wasted. You can take them back and treat them as specialties from Fuzhou."
This was indeed the dry food she bought at the snack shop in Fuzhou. She was afraid that it would not be enough for the journey, so she bought a lot more. She also prepared dry food in Kyoto. After eating it all the way, she felt like vomiting.
It would be a waste to keep them, it would be better to let Chen take them all away.
How can they go back to their parents' home without some gifts?
"But..." Chen looked worried.
What if Liu Qin can’t find her aunt?
She has nothing to eat, so won’t she starve?
"There's nothing to worry about! It would be a waste for me to bring it with me! I don't want to continue eating dry food when I get to Youzhou." Liu Qin said directly.
Since she said so, Chen had no choice but to accept it.
"Miss Qin'er, thank you so much." Chen said gratefully.
They were driven out by their husband's family and were penniless. If they had not met the Gu family caravan, they probably would not have been able to return to Youzhou.
Now that they have Liu Qin's dry food, they do feel a little more respectable.
As the two were talking, they had already arrived outside Youzhou City.
Gu Yang walked over and said, "Everyone, we have arrived in Youzhou City. Is there anything I can help you with?"
