The first quarter of noon.
"How far is it from here to Xishui County?" Xu Mo asked the soldiers guarding the city at the gate of Huayang County.
"If you take the water route, you can arrive at 5 p.m. today. If you take the land route, you can arrive before 5 p.m. today."
Xu Mo turned and walked towards the big willow tree five hundred meters away from the left front of the city gate.
A low-key carriage was parked behind the big willow tree. Feng Jinyu was lying on the soft couch with one hand resting on his head, his eyes slightly closed. He was obviously sleepy and had fallen into a light sleep.
There were light footsteps outside the carriage. Feng Jinyu opened his eyes alertly and sat up straight.
"When will it arrive?"
Xu Mo knew that Feng Jinyu was eager to see the princess as soon as possible, so he told her the truth.
Feng Jinyu looked at the expressions of Xu Mo and Li Yuanliang. He couldn't take a boat over there, nor could he let the Cui and Meng families discover his whereabouts.
"Xu Mo, go into the city and get some hot food, water, and dry food. Rest for an hour, then rush to Xishui County."
Not long after Xu Mo left, a very low voice came into the car.
"The southern part of Beiyi is so vast, with hundreds of villages. Finding one person is like looking for a needle in a haystack..."
Feng Jinyu frowned when he heard this. If he heard correctly, the voice sounded like Nan Kun's accent. It was a big deal that Nan Kun was a spy.
Feng Jinyu lifted the curtain of the car and took a look at the three people squatting in the woods not far away. They were wearing Beiyi's clothes, the clothes of ordinary people.
"Master, do we need to deal with it?" Li Yuanliang whispered.
"Go deal with it...wait."
He has become an abandoned pawn and is now just the King of Cangnan with an empty title.
He was framed, and his father wanted to punish him without any investigation or evidence. Why should he still worry about this?
"Don't worry about it."
Li Yuanliang thought about it and decided that there was really no need to worry about it. His inquiry just now was just a habit he developed from working with Feng Jinyu.
Li Yuanliang raised his eyes to glance at Feng Jinyu, and saw that her brows were slightly furrowed as if she was struggling.
Turning his head to look at the three people not far away, it was hard to say whether they could survive.
＊
"Uncle He, this is for you." Su Ningjie handed a large bowl of food to He Jianzhang who was still in shock.
"Thank you, nephew." He Jianzhang took it with a smile.
No wonder I felt that Su Ningjie was born rich when I first met him. I didn't expect that he was the child of the eldest wife of the Lu family.
"Uncle He, please come sit down at the table and have dinner with us?"
He Jianzhang, "Uncle will sit on the doorstep and eat. It's cool here. Go and have your meal."
After He Jianzhang finished speaking, he lowered his head and started eating with big mouthfuls. Seeing this, Su Ningjie had no choice but to give up. He turned and went into the yard and sat between Lu Yuan and Si Chuyu.
"Brother Jie, what do you like to eat?"
Lu Yuan put the chicken thigh into Su Ningjie's bowl, and Si Chuyu put a piece of rabbit meat into Su Ningjie's bowl.
"I'm not picky about food, I like to eat everything."
Lu Yuan had an idea in his mind. During the four days that Jie Ge'er came back to the Lu Mansion, he would cook different meals for him every day to make sure he was well fed. Now, raising a younger brother was like raising a son in advance.
"Big sister, what do you like to eat?"
"I'm not picky about food like you."
"What about you, brother-in-law?"
"I like everything your sister likes to eat."
“…”
Xiao Lingyu fed Xiao Xier and listened to the conversation between the three people. He knew that Brother Jie was beginning to slowly understand his family.
"Mother, my second brother is so lucky. He has the love of his sister and brother-in-law."
Xiao Xier felt a little envious when she saw Lu Yuan and his wife constantly putting food into her second brother's bowl.
"You are very happy too. Your mother holds you in her arms while you sleep and feeds you."
Xiao Xier looked up at Xiao Lingyu's face. She had always had such a beautiful mother all to herself, and she was indeed very happy.
"Xiao Xi'er." Lu Yuan placed a large piece of boneless fish into Xiao Xi'er's bowl. "Big sister said she would spoil you and she won't break her promise."
Xiao Xier smiled and said, "Thank you, big sister, but you still have to take care of my second brother. He is weak and gets out of breath after walking a few steps. He also always has diarrhea and can never gain weight. Fortunately, my mother has taken good care of him and he has gained some weight. I will trouble you, big sister, to help him gain weight and grow stronger."
Lu Yuan's heart tightened when he heard this. His elder brother was suffocated and thrown into the cold mass grave, so naturally his body was injured.
"Mrs. Su, thank you so much."
"Sister, the person I want to thank most is my husband."
If Su Xingyi was not kind-hearted and could make money hunting, he would not have picked up the child and brought him home to raise.
He picked up four in one go.
If he hadn't picked up the child and brought him home to raise, he might have married and had children long ago.
Su Xingyi said, "Brother Jie is my son. It is my responsibility as a father to raise him well. Let's not say thank you or anything like that in the future. Brother Jie and I have a father-son bond."
"Dad, I will honor you."
Su Xingyi smiled and said, "Dad knows. Let's eat quickly. The food won't taste good if it gets cold."
After Su Xingyi finished speaking, he put some food in the bowls of Su Ning'an and Su Ningwen respectively. These two sons could not be neglected.
Su Ningan put the fish head into Su Ningwen's bowl and said with a smile, "Third brother, this will nourish your brain."
"Brother, let me give you some brain nourishment." Su Ningwen put the fish head back into Su Ning'an's big bowl. "You should eat more. You have to take the Tongsheng exam next spring. If you don't pass, you have to keep taking it."
Suningan:!!! Can we still enjoy our meal?
"I really need to catch up."
Hearing this, Lu Yuan remembered the many books placed in the main hall. "Madam Su, why don't you consider sending the children to the county school?"
