Thinking of this, Aunt Zhang lifted the small curtain of the carriage.
"Miss, this is going to waste too much time. How about spending some money to fix it?"
Ran Xiangyu stretched her head out and looked ahead. Seeing the exile team moving slowly, the anger in her heart began to rise.
"Damn it, I should have left sooner."
"The Shen family is Miss Keben..."
Nanny Zhang listened to Ran Xiangyu's complaints and sighed helplessly.
We could have left earlier, but because Ran Xiangyu asked everyone to cook their own meals, we wasted some time.
Now you can save a little money and spend a lot of money.
Originally, twenty or thirty taels of silver would have been enough to feed everyone and get them on their journey early.
Now it has to be increased tenfold at least.
"Miss!" Nanny Zhang shouted helplessly, "If you delay any longer, the master will come after you..."
After hearing what Nanny Zhang said, Ran Xiangyu bit her lower lip, took a deep breath, and retracted her head into the carriage.
She opened the package, hesitated for a long time, and took out two hundred taels of silver.
In the past, she would not have cared about 200 taels of silver, but not now.
She didn't take out anything from her boudoir, leaving only the little pocket money left from the farm, which added up to just over two thousand taels of silver.
It’s a long way to my uncle’s house, and food, drink and accommodation all cost money, so I have to be frugal.
She is not a brainless person. She spends money lavishly even though she has no money. In the end, she is the one who suffers.
The Qiangong Babu bed is valuable, but you have to wait until you reach Menglan City to sell the bed.
At this time, Ran Xiangyu was extremely grateful that she had listened to her wet nurse and brought out the bed. Selling the bed was much better than selling the few gold, silver and jewelry left in her package.
If she had known this earlier, she would have moved all of her mother's dowry and private money to the farm, so she wouldn't be so short of money now.
"Nurse!"
Ran Xiangyu opened the curtain and handed the banknote to Aunt Zhang reluctantly.
Tian Santianliu heard the conversation between the two and glanced at them out of the corner of his eye.
Looking at Nanny Zhang holding the banknotes in her hand and walking quickly forward with a sullen face, Tian San frowned slightly.
When these two people said these things, it felt like they were saying them on purpose.
Who is the one who bought the house and said it so openly?
There is something fishy!!
Tian San quickened his pace and took a few steps forward.
The creaking of the carriage affected his hearing, and he couldn't hear the two people talking from a distance.
Zhang Tiezhu was feeling worried when suddenly a figure appeared beside him, scaring him so much that he trembled all over.
Tian San glanced at Zhang Tiezhu, and the corner of his eye swept towards the limp Chen Yong.
He was so close that he could hardly feel Chen Yong's presence. He looked like he was about to die, so was it necessary for them to come and hunt him down?
Killing Shen Yong is not difficult, the main purpose is to eliminate the hidden followers of the Shen family.
He had not been a secret guard for so many years in vain. Emperor Tianwu had said that they could not take action against the Shen family before leaving Danyun City.
Monitor who contacts the Shen family and who comes to jailbreak. Eliminating these people would be a great achievement.
Tian San withdrew his gaze and looked forward. At this time, Nanny Zhang had already walked to Sun Ren's side. He pricked up his ears and listened carefully.
"Sir, this is a little gift from our young lady. It's so hot, and we must have worked hard on the journey."
Nanny Zhang walked over to Sun Ren, bowed slightly, and gave him a flattering smile.
As she spoke, Nanny Zhang had already stuffed the banknotes in her hand into Sun Ren's hand.
Sun Ren frowned slightly, glanced at the banknotes, and put them into his sleeve.
It seemed like this group of people were at odds with the Shen family, so it was only natural for him to take some money from them.
"Well, you young lady is thoughtful."
Sun Ren raised his eyelids and glanced at Aunt Zhang lightly.
Aunt Zhang looked at Sun Ren's expressionless face and her heart skipped a beat.
This is---you think the money you gave is not enough?
"Sir, could you please allow our convoy to pass first?"
"You can see that if the cart doesn't move, it takes a lot of effort to pull and stop it, so..."
Nanny Zhang looked at Sun Ren with a pleading and flattering expression, and spoke softly, not daring to show any impatience.
As the saying goes, it is easy to see the King of Hell, but it is difficult to deal with little ghosts.
Now, apart from begging them with nice words, they really don't dare to confront them head-on.
What if these escorting officers were unscrupulous and threw dirty water on them? If they tried to rob prisoners, they would just be hacked to death with knives, and their deaths would be in vain.
Sun Ren glanced at Nanny Zhang and looked back.
When he saw the two men in black standing near Shen Yong, alarm bells rang in his heart.
Are these two people planning to rescue Shen Yong?
Sun Ren narrowed his eyes slightly, glanced at the long line of carts formed by a hundred people behind him, and then looked at the two serious-looking men in black.
He took a deep breath.
"That's really not possible. We can't give way to any convoy when escorting prisoners. To prevent accidents, you should just follow slowly from behind."
The two men in black looked like they were here to rob the prison, but also looked like they were here to assassinate.
There are so many people on the road now that they don't dare to take action.
If he gave way and let the caravan go, then only they and the men in black would be left on the road, and the men in black would be ready to attack at any time.
No, he couldn't be sure what the two men in black were going to do, so he couldn't let the caravan go.
Nanny Zhang stared at Sun Ren in astonishment, the corners of her mouth twitching twice.
Are you kidding me? They didn't give way, but they collected the banknotes so quickly.
"Then--then let's go over there when the officer is resting."
Nanny Zhang faced Sun Ren's cold gaze and didn't dare to ask for the money back for a long time.
After hearing what Aunt Zhang said, Sun Ren chuckled.
We’ll talk about it during the break. Whether we can pass or not depends on whether those two conspicuous men in black leave.
Tian San looked at Sun Ren and Aunt Zhang thoughtfully, sneering in his heart.
They came up with such a fake excuse and still claimed there was nothing fishy.
He was sure that there must be some kind of note wrapped in the banknote.
Otherwise, this old guy would have made an unnecessary trip, and both sides would have been putting on an act in front of him.
Ran Xiangyu waited for a long time until Nanny Zhang, with a gloomy look on her face, finally returned to the carriage.
"Nurse, can the carriage pass?"
Aunt Zhang drooped her lips, sighed and shook her head.
"No, the officer said there is no precedent for this."
Ran Xiangyu, “.......”
"Is there a precedent for giving way?!"
Ran Xiangyu stared at Aunt Zhang with wide eyes, her face full of disbelief.
Nanny Zhang curled her lips and looked at Ran Xiangyu helplessly, "Since the master said so, there is nothing I can do."
"We can only wait until the policeman is tired and resting, and then we can overtake him."
We just have to wait for another hour or so at most. These officers should be taking a rest, so it’s not impossible to endure it.
