Chapter 11: All Exiled, Don't Talk About Those Broken Rules
Shen Yunyue put all the silver into the space, leaving only two strings of copper coins and a few small changes outside.
He gave the waiter a dime and asked him to bring some fine horse feed. Shen Yunfeng and Shen Yuncheng followed Ah Si and learned how to feed the horses. They were determined to learn how to drive a real carriage.
Fu Xuanheng paid Peng Chaye for a large room with a dormitory. The eldest daughter of the Shen family came over and said she wanted to squeeze in with them, saying that being in the same room would help them take care of each other.
The post station was ruthless in collecting money from these exiles.
They spent two taels of silver on a shabby bunk bed room, which was covered with musty-smelling straw and thatch, and covered with dust and dirt mixed with the thatch.
Shen Yunyue inserted her finger in, and half of her palm turned black.
There were several cotton quilts piled on top.
The cotton quilt was so dirty that I couldn't see its original color. I touched it and it was very damp. The quilt was also very hard and not soft at all.
Shen Yunyue covered her mouth with a handkerchief and shouted to the others:
"Stand aside for a moment."
Ah Si ran in from outside, holding a broom in his hand. "Miss Yue, let me come over and clean up."
Seeing Ah Si coming over, Shen Yunyue casually took a gray towel from her backpack and handed it to him. "Cover your face. This dust might be poisonous."
Ah Si responded and took it to cover his mouth and nose.
He put the damp quilt aside and turned all the straw out onto the ground. Yingfeng quickly took the straw from the carriage and used it as a cushion.
"This quilt is too damp. We will catch a cold if we cover ourselves with it in the middle of winter. Let's use our cloaks as quilts and go get some charcoal from the waiter to keep warm." Shen Yunyue suggested when she saw that there was not much thatch on the bunk bed.
Now everyone still has some money in their hands, and no one wants to get sick out front.
"Okay, let's listen to Yunyue." Old Master Shen naturally agreed.
Fu Xuanheng pushed the wheelchair to the edge of the kang, and lifted himself up with his hands to move to the bed. Shen Yunyue came over and handed him a set of clothes, "This is what my uncle and the others prepared. One set for each person. This is for you to change into first."
"Me too?" Fu Xuanheng looked puzzled.
"Yeah. You have it too, Aunt Feng and her daughter have it too, and Xuan Sheng has it too." Shen Yunyue couldn't help but sigh that not only the Shen family has a good family tradition, but the Mo family and the Liu family are the same.
"Uncle Liu also prepared some for us. Now we don't have to worry about having nothing to wear."
Fu Xuanheng fell silent, stroking his fine cotton clothes. The flickering oil lamp illuminated his stern face. He silently turned his back to Shen Yunyue.
A tsundere guy.
Shen Yunyue made a face.
The children were all in the house, and the others went out to line up to get the steamed bread.
There was only steamed bread and no other food. The black and hard steamed bread could definitely kill someone.
Shen Yunyue ran out and called the waiter, giving him a hundred coins. "Brother Xiaoer, please let me use your kitchen for a moment."
"Girl, we'll buy you some vegetables. You can't buy anything with this hundred coins." The waiter held up a bunch of coins strung together on a rope. "How about I make you some cabbage soup?"
"That's fine. Make me two egg drop eggs and bring them in." Shen Yunyue took out another twenty big coins from her pocket, "Thank you for your help, little brother."
"Okay." Holding the copper coin, the waiter ran away with a smile on his face.
Just a bowl of vegetable soup costs so much money, and I don’t know how much money it will cost along the way.
Fortunately, there are many treasures in the space, so I can hide and eat and drink when I am far away from the capital.
The He family next door prepared a table of wine and food.
Mr. He ordered a few officers to go over.
He also ordered people to prepare a table of wine and food for the other escorts, so that they could have wine and meat. Other families also wanted to have a good relationship with the escorts, but at the beginning no one dared to compete with the He family in spending money.
Both Mr. Shen's brothers are the kind of people who follow their sons to gain fame and fortune, and they themselves are timid and lack foresight.
The two brothers hid in the room and didn't dare to come out, let alone try to establish a good relationship with the bailiff.
Ah Si and Ying Feng were busy following Shen Yunyue.
"Uncle Si, Yingfeng. Keep these copper coins with you. We need to spend money to do things." Shen Yunyue knew the loyalty of these two people. Anyone who could sneak in during exile by spending money was not bad.
"Ms. Yue. I have some silver on me, and I've saved a lot of it in a money shop over the years. I'll take it all out, and don't worry, I'll protect you." As Ah Si spoke, he took out the silver bills from his pocket and handed them to Shen Yunyue.
"Miss Yue, Madam said you are the head of the household. You will be in charge of all arrangements."
"Uncle Si. I'll keep your share. Thank you." Shen Yunyue sincerely felt the loyalty of the ancients. Even after giving them a bond of release, they still chose to follow the master.
"After you two finish your meal, ask the waiter to bring over a few buckets of hot water. We're not walkers, so we need hot water to soak our feet every day to relieve fatigue."
"Yes, Miss Yue." Ah Si looks different from ordinary hunters. Under the influence of Shen Cixuan, he can also read and write.
Ah Si lacks some of his recklessness.
The waiter quickly brought the cabbage soup. Shen Yunyue spent some money at the post station to buy some bamboo chopsticks, bamboo bowls, and bamboo basins. They had a carriage, so they could add some necessities to the carriage just in case.
The whole family sat around the table in the room drinking soup and eating steamed bread.
Relatives who came to Hefeng Pavilion to say goodbye all brought steamed buns.
Reluctant to eat the delicate steamed buns, Shen Yunyue decided to share them with everyone. "Don't be reluctant to eat. It's cold, the mountains are high, and the road is long. We can't reach Shihanzhou without good health."
"Yunyue is right. Let's make the days ahead smoother first." Fu Xuanheng also echoed Shen Yunyue's words, "We need to save some money. I estimate that we can reach Shihanzhou without any problem."
“Then let’s eat steamed buns?” Mrs. Shen Ma had been wanting to eat steamed buns for a long time.
"Eat it."
Others ate the soft steamed buns and then soaked the cornbread in cabbage soup. They ate it after it softened.
No one in the family dared to say anything.
Feng Xiao'e wanted to speak, but she remembered that no family members came to give her money.
She didn't dare say a word and could only eat the steamed bread with gritted teeth.
After dinner.
Ah Si and Ying Feng went to fetch water, and Shen Yuncheng and Shen Yunfeng also went out to help when they saw this.
Fu Xuanheng called Shen Yunyue.
"Yunyue, come here."
Shen Yunyue walked over and sat on the bed, leaning slightly closer to Fu Xuanheng. "Want to pee?"
"Just sit still and don't run around. It's dangerous for a girl to go out at night." Fu Xuanheng has seen in the past two days that none of the remaining people in the Shen family can stand up.
They can only rely on Shen Yunyue to support the family, and the Fu family also has to rely on her.
"I'm not afraid."
"Be obedient." Fu Xuanheng pulled Shen Yunyue's legs over and gently kneaded her calves.
Shen Yunyue hadn't expected this kid to have this side. Her feet were sore, so she simply took off her shoes and put them on Fu Xuanheng's legs in her socks.
"Both of your feet are sore, rub them."
"Okay." Fu Xuanheng lowered his eyes, his voice as cold as pine needles.
Aunt Feng went out for a walk, hoping to get into the He family's circle and eat and drink with them.
Who knew that the other person would ignore her and send her away with just a few words.
Not everyone in the He family had access to good food. Only a few favored members of the family had access to food, while the rest of the family had to eat steamed bread and drink raw water from a wooden barrel.
She automatically ignored the people who were eating steamed bread and stared at the people who were eating the dishes. She secretly hated Fu Xuanheng, this brainless guy. It would be better to take Shen Yunyue to the He family.
I was so angry that I had to go back to sleep because I had to get up early and travel tomorrow.
After entering the house, he covered his mouth with his hand and yawned. He saw Fu Xuanheng rubbing Shen Yunyue's feet, and his mouth opened wide.
"Oh my god, oh my god. What are you two doing?" Aunt Feng pointed at Shen Yunyue in disbelief. "You little girl, you have quite a few tricks. You dare to let us Xuan Heng rub your feet."
"Is this how the Shen family teaches their daughters?"
Aunt Feng started shouting loudly.
Mo Yiran's face turned purple and red. She was so tired that she didn't even notice Shen Yunyue and the other person hiding nearby.
The Shen family members did not dare to make a distinction, thinking that they had not educated Shen Yunyue well.
Originally, Shen Yunyue didn't think this was a bad thing.
Just looking at everyone's faces, I can tell that times have changed and naturally people have different ideas.
"Why are you screaming? It's none of your business to decide how the Shen family teaches their daughter." Shen Yunyue didn't retract her legs, and Fu Xuanheng didn't stop smiling with a smile on his face.
"The Crown Princess is about to be driven crazy by you guys."
"That's great. Xuan Heng has his mother and I have a mother-in-law." Shen Yunyue chuckled, "Auntie Feng. We're all exiled now, so can you please stop talking about those crappy rules?"
