Chapter 414 Encountering a Wolf Pack
When Su Tai saw Su Chuan, she treated him like the God of Wealth. She cordially invited him in, served him tea and water, and asked him about his health. Finally, she asked, "Why are you planning to leave?"
Su Zhan almost spit out what he had in his mouth, his face full of resentment, "Big sister, please behave yourself! We have come all the way back, and you want to kick us off before we even have time to sit down? You can't even order a donkey around like this!"
Su Tai touched her nose awkwardly and changed the topic, "How many days do you plan to rest?"
Everyone: “.”
The group of people were eating with their heads buried, and no one wanted to pay attention to Su Tai.
Su Sheng pointed at the beef noodles and sighed, "Every time I come back and have a bite, I feel at ease. No delicacies from land and sea can compare to this taste from home."
Su Tai took a look and said, "Of course! I made it with beef! You can't get it in ordinary places! What's going on in the imperial capital? Godfather is not a money-grubber. He sent me a letter out of the blue. I was so panicked."
Shen Dagou explained hurriedly: "It's my second sister. She gave birth to a son. The emperor, empress and queen mother were all very happy. Also, my second sister is the only one in the Sixth Prince's backyard. Uncle Liu said that from now on, we must maintain our connections. If nothing else, we can't offend anyone and cause trouble for my second sister and the Sixth Prince.
Because the amount was too high, Uncle Liu was unsure, so he sent the letter back in advance, thinking that if there was no goods this time, there would be some by the end of the year! If there were goods this time, he would send a part first, and pay the rest by the end of the year, so that everyone would understand. "
Su Tai was overjoyed, "That's great! Almost all women in the royal family are honored by their sons. Tiantian has a son now, so her status is secure. You can talk to your family about it later and make them happy.
And the rest of you, go back after you divide the money, rest for two days and then go to the villa in Dahe Town to take the goods away. Leave this morning to prevent the weather in the imperial capital from getting warm and the seafood from being stored."
After Su Tai said this, everyone did not dare to delay and quickly gathered together to divide the money.
The money they get now is in the tens of thousands of taels, and the savings they have made are enough for several generations of the family to live comfortably.
After getting the silver, Su Zhan and his companions got on the carriage as quickly as possible and rushed home.
Su Tai then put the boxes of banknotes into the Space-Time Gate Transfer Station.
On the day the caravan set out, Su Zhan took the opportunity to send Shen Yuezhang and three others back to Shenjiazhuang.
As soon as Shen Congrong saw Su Tai, he made all kinds of accusations, saying that the twins were doing nothing, that Shen Yuezhang was watching coldly, and that Su Chunlin and Han indulged their younger siblings.
I wish I could vent all the grievances I've felt during this period in one breath.
The twins had no choice but to be punished by Su Tai again.
Shen Congrong felt relieved at first, but gradually he felt distressed and began to plead for them.
Children's emotions come and go quickly, over and over again.
Su Tai was too lazy to care about the lawsuit between them.
The village school just started, so she sent her four children to the school, and the house suddenly became much quieter.
From now until departure for Qiongzi, Su Tai has plenty of time to make new plans for the family.
Thinking of her four children, she hesitated for a few days and decided to take them on the road.
This means that more things need to be prepared. First of all, we have to give them some weapons for self-defense, and also teach them some ways to deal with danger.
When you have something to do, time doesn't pass by so easily.
Overnight, the winter snow melted and the spring breeze arrived.
As soon as the earth woke up, Shen Ying started to disturb the villagers with a gong, "Spring plowing! If you don't work hard in spring plowing, you will have to eat wild vegetables in autumn. Spring plowing!"
The children in the village found it fun and followed Shen Ying, imitating his shouting.
Shen Ying laughed angrily, "Go, go, go back to the village and study!"
The children ran away with grins on their faces, but a few tough ones still followed Shen Ying.
If Shen Ying can't be driven away, just ignore him.
Su Tai heard the sound of the gong and began to pack her luggage for leaving.
With the lesson learned from last time, she watched the twins being taken care of with her own eyes this time.
"Mom, can I take this?" Shen Yuean took out a string of firecrackers and looked at Su Tai with an innocent face.
Su Tai's forehead bulged and she refused decisively, "No!"
The little girl sighed and picked up another wooden man toy with its head split front and back. Just as Shen Yuean turned around, the wooden man made a face at Su Tai.
The corners of Su Tai's mouth twitched slightly, and her face was expressionless, "No!"
"Mom, what about this?" This time the little girl took out paper and pen.
Su Tai just felt tired. "I told you to be serious but you weren't. Now you're pretending to be serious with me! You are not allowed to bring me anything except clothes, money and self-defense items!"
Shen Yuean shook her head in disappointment.
Shen Congyu watched silently from the side and went back to the house to clean up again.
Su Tai couldn't help but nag at them again.
Departure day.
Shen Yi personally went to the Shen family's house and asked them to take care of all the housework before setting off with his wife and children.
There were forty yamen runners who came with them this time. I heard that they were all the manpower that the county government could mobilize.
As soon as they set out on the journey, Su Tai gave each of them a portion of pot-cakes, steamed buns, bread and cake as a thank you gift, and also put two taels of silver in it.
The yamen runner who got the cloth bag soon discovered the secret and became more respectful to Su Tai and the four children.
Because of the food provided by Su Tai, everyone was on the road except for stopping to rest at night.
The twins were excited for two days and then became listless.
Always asking if you have arrived.
Su Tai ignored them, but Chen Yi was very patient and even carried the children to his horse and walked for a while.
The twins take turns so it doesn't get boring.
Wait for the team to enter the ice field.
The desolate scene makes people feel uneasy.
Shen Yuean sat in Shen Yi's arms and asked curiously: "Dad, new buds are sprouting on the branches of the trees in our village, why is there not even a single withered tree here? And on the ground, the grass is all dead."
Shen Yi had to explain it to her in detail.
As the father and daughter were talking, a few wolves suddenly appeared not far away.
After a winter, these wolves were probably so hungry that their eyes turned green. Not only were they not afraid of the caravan, they even tentatively approached step by step.
Chen Yi's eyes darkened a little, and he glanced at his little daughter in his arms, "Yuan'an, go back to the carriage first, and wait until Dad has dealt with these wolves before coming out."
"Dad, can I watch from here? I'm not afraid!" Shen Yuean's eyes were firm.
In just a short while, the wolves were only three meters away from them.
There are more than what we just saw!
Shen Yi decisively carried Shen Yuean off the horse and handed her to Su Tai, "Don't worry, we will take care of it."
Su Tai wasn't really worried. She just held the four children down and didn't let them go out.
The four children could only secretly lift the heavy curtains to peek.
Some of the wolves pounced on the horses, while others bared their sharp fangs at the people.
Chen Yi calmly directed all the runners to divide the work. Each person was more than enough to deal with one wolf. He himself ran towards the leader of the wolves and chopped it in the face.
