The master and servant ate up three dishes, one soup and two bowls of rice.
Ran Xiangyu had just put down her chopsticks when someone knocked on the door again.
“Nurse…”
Ran Xiangyu's heart skipped a beat and she looked at Aunt Zhang nervously.
Aunt Zhang licked her lips and said soothingly, "Don't be afraid, Miss."
After saying that, she turned towards the door and asked, "Who is it?"
"Little one, come and bring water!"
The servant's voice came from outside the house.
Nanny Zhang listened to the familiar voice of the servant, pursed her lips and looked at the nervous Ran Xiangyu.
Ran Xiangyu frowned and hesitated for a moment, "Go open the door."
It’s hard to refuse the water that is offered to you.
She hadn't taken a shower in a long time, and she smelled terrible.
I was so busy on my way that I didn't pay attention.
Now that I'm full and satisfied, I feel itchy all over my body, uncomfortable everywhere, and I always feel like there's a foul smell coming from my body.
If she went to see Chen Yong like this, Chen Yong would be disgusted to death.
Just as Ran Xiangyu was thinking, Nanny Zhang opened the door.
The servant brought a few people and put a large bucket of hot water in the room.
After putting the water in, the servants left the room immediately.
Ran Xiangyu stared at the door and winked at Aunt Zhang.
Nanny Zhang nodded, walked carefully to the door, and glanced towards the lobby of the post station.
After closing the door gently with a creak, Nanny Zhang walked over to Ran Xiangyu and whispered,
"Miss, there are servants and maids guarding downstairs."
Ran Xiangyu sighed deeply and frowned as she looked at the bucket of steaming water.
"Let's wash it first."
It was already late, and she couldn't leave even if she wanted to.
Just enjoy whatever you are given. I don’t think Magistrate Liu will forcefully take a woman from you.
Nanny Zhang served Ran Xiangyu with a worried look on her face, washing her from head to toe.
The clear water becomes turbid after washing.
Ran Xiangyu used three of the four buckets of water left by the servant to wash clean.
This was saved by Aunt Zhang's careful use.
Nanny Zhang's arms were soaked in water and covered with dust.
Using the bath water that Ran Xiangyu had used, Nanny Zhang also washed herself.
"Nanny, are they still there?"
After changing her clothes, Ran Xiangyu looked at the door worriedly.
Nanny Zhang carefully opened the door a little and took a look outside.
"Miss, they are still here."
After closing the door, Aunt Zhang walked over to Ran Xiangyu with a frown on her face.
"Rest first, we'll set off early tomorrow morning."
Ran Xiangyu nodded helplessly, moved to the bed, patted the bed,
"Nanny, come up and sleep with me."
Nanny Zhang was sleeping outside, and if someone came, they would definitely wake up the wet nurse.
Nanny Zhang nodded, blew out the light, and climbed onto the bed nervously.
In fact, she thought it would be nice for the eldest daughter to marry the prefect, at least she wouldn't have to live such a displaced life.
She also couldn't understand why the eldest lady suddenly wanted to find Chen Yong.
No matter how powerful Chen Yong is, he is still a fugitive.
If I follow Chen Yong, I will have to live a life of exile from place to place.
However, no matter how much she tried to persuade her, the eldest lady just wouldn't listen to her.
It is said that Shen Yong's martial arts are so superb that he will definitely have great fortune in the future.
No matter how great your luck is, how much can it reach? You can only become the king of a mountain or a bandit.
She saw that the eldest lady was bewitched by Shen Yong's martial arts.
Women all have a heroic complex and like masters with great martial arts skills. She can understand that.
Anyway, she didn't think Chen Yong was in Qianhuang City. When the eldest lady hit the wall, she would know to turn back.
It would be best if she could go to the Fire Nation. She and the eldest daughter could run the perfume and powder shop left by the lady and live a peaceful life.
If you can't get out, then marrying the prefect is also a good option.
The master and servant were each thinking about their own things and fell asleep unknowingly.
.......
The beginning of the Mao hour (5:00)...
"Miss, get up quickly, it's time to go."
Nanny Zhang got up early and packed her things. Seeing that it was getting light outside, she went to the bed and woke up Ran Xiangyu.
Ran Xiangyu, who had been keeping her heart tense, sat up from the bed when she heard Aunt Zhang's call.
“Someone’s coming!!?”
Ran Xiangyu looked at Aunt Zhang in panic.
Aunt Zhang shook her head. "No."
Ran Xiangyu turned her head to look at the window, and quickly climbed down from the bed.
"It's good that he didn't come. Let's go quickly."
"Everything is packed." Aunt Zhang looked at Ran Xiangyu while holding a bag and an empty water bag.
"It's just that this water bag hasn't been filled with water yet."
She wanted to grit her teeth and just take some of the bath water with her.
But when she got close to the bathtub, she really couldn't bring herself to do it.
The water in the bathtub had been there overnight and it smelled pretty bad.
If she had known this, she would have filled a water bag before taking a shower last night.
Ran Xiangyu pursed her lips, looked at the bath tub, and then glanced at the water bag.
There were layers of mud floating in the bath tub, emitting a strange smell, and she couldn't bring herself to ask the wet nurse to fill it with water.
"It's okay, just be patient. If you meet some common people on the road, spend some money to buy it from them."
Aunt Zhang touched the remaining 50 taels of silver in the bag and nodded helplessly.
"good."
This is all I can do. There's nowhere to get water so early in the morning.
Ran Xiangyu hurriedly put on her clothes and walked towards the door.
A "squeaky" sound.
"Miss, breakfast is ready."
Ran Xiangyu was stunned when she saw the servant carrying the food box at the door.
This, this, this.....The prefect likes her so much?
Oh my God, breakfast was already prepared at daybreak.
The servant waited for a while but no one took the food box. He looked up at Ran Xiangyu.
"Would you like to have breakfast before setting off, Miss, or have breakfast in the carriage?"
"The horses have been fed, the carriages have been cleaned, and they are waiting at the entrance of the post station. We are ready to set off at any time."
Ran Xiangyu came back to her senses and looked downstairs.
I saw that there was indeed a carriage parked at the entrance of the post station, and the horses were wagging their tails and eating grass leisurely.
Ran Xiangyu glanced at Aunt Zhang in panic.
Nanny Zhang laughed dryly and took the food box from the servant. "Thank you, sir, for your kindness."
Ran Xiangyu pulled the corner of her lips and said with a chuckle,
"I am grateful for your kindness, sir, but I am worried about my grandmother and cannot wait any longer, so I want to leave now."
It didn't matter if we had breakfast in the carriage.
With the food in this lunch box, she could eat sparingly and last until she reached Qianhuang City.
The servant leaned forward and replied, "Yes, I'll arrange it right away."
After saying that, the servant hurried downstairs.
