"I unilaterally agree to your request, but the specific details also depend on what the Gu family thinks." Lu Yan paused, her voice calm: "If that old woman doesn't make trouble, I have no objection at all. If she dares to make trouble..."
Lu Yan paused deliberately when she said this.
She didn't finish her words, but Yu Nian heard a strong threat in her words.
Lu Yan's attitude is self-evident.
If the old Gu family was really peaceful, Lu Yan would take them along. Although she wouldn't have to share her food with them, she could still keep them alive while fleeing the famine.
But if those people in the Gu family don't behave...
"It's okay, let's take it one step at a time." Yu Nian quickly made up his mind.
She also doesn't like dealing with unreasonable people, and the Gu family is so tactless.
She didn't mind giving them a good beating.
The two sisters walked in the night, Yu Nian pointing the way and Lu Yan following. Before long, they arrived at the post station in the county town.
Seeing the two women coming from afar, the waiter at the post station was a little surprised.
However, after hearing the purpose of Lu Yan and Yu Nian's visit, his face turned dark.
"We don't sell horses here."
The servant glanced at the two people in front of him and thought to himself: What an ignorant village woman, she can actually say such words.
The post station did have horses, but they were not provided to ordinary people.
They all provide horse-changing services for the servants who come for repairs.
"Gentlemen, I advise you to leave as soon as possible." The waiter said, and then glanced at the two people in front of him: "Our post station has many dignitaries and nobles coming and going. If you really offend them, I'm afraid you two will have a hard time living like this."
The waiter's words were not unpleasant and were all true.
Lu Yan and Yu Nian couldn't help but look at each other again.
Lu Yan laughed twice before speaking, "Brother, my sister and I are from the nearby Xiaohe Village. Didn't we run into some trouble in the county and didn't have time to rush back?"
As Lu Yan spoke, he took out some silver from his pocket and stuffed it into the hands of the waiter.
"Can you please make some concessions? It doesn't matter if the horses are in bad condition, we need to get out of the city quickly."
Lu Yan said this and sighed.
Seeing her like this, the waiter was obviously a little shaken.
Seeing this, Yu Nian also struck while the iron was hot: "Brother, look at us, we're like this, and we just got married! If I don't come home tonight, I'm afraid... I'll even lose my life. Please be kind, we will return the horse tomorrow."
At this point, the two men no longer thought about renting a horse.
At this time, we still have to go back to Xiaohe Village first.
It’s not too late to deal with the rest tomorrow.
Hearing what the two said, the waiter's face also showed embarrassment: "Gentlemen, it's not that I don't want to help you. This horse is not something that everyone can ride..."
After saying that, he looked at Yu Nian and Lu Yan carefully again.
"With your thin arms and legs, if you fall off the horse..." the waiter didn't dare to think about it.
But everyone understood what he didn't finish.
If he fell off the horse, he would be dead without his evil mother-in-law having to do anything.
"I learned a little from my family when I was a kid, so you don't have to worry about this, little brother." Lu Yan immediately said when he saw the waiter wavering: "Don't worry, we can pay the deposit, and we'll refund you when we return the horse tomorrow."
Yu Nian just received three hundred taels and some gold, silver and jade ornaments today.
There were about three hundred taels left in Lu Yan's space.
No matter how expensive a horse is, it is enough.
The waiter hesitated for a few seconds, then looked the two men up and down. He didn't say anything too loud. "Then I'll give you a ten-liang deposit. I'll return it to you tomorrow when you return the horses. But you can't harm me. If this horse-borrowing incident gets out of hand, the manager will definitely not let me stay at the post station."
As soon as he said this, Lu Yan and Yu Nian's faces lit up with joy.
Fortunately, management is not so strict these days.
Otherwise, Lu Yan and Yu Nian would definitely not be able to take advantage of this loophole today.
"Don't worry, we will definitely not let you get into trouble."
Yu Nian quickly responded.
In just a short while, the two of them coordinated perfectly with each other.
It completely moved the waiter who was hesitant just now.
After a while, Lu Yan and Yu Nian were riding on the horses.
Lu Yan hadn't ridden a horse in a while, and she was a little uncomfortable when she first got on, and was almost thrown off. But fortunately, she was quite agile and grabbed the saddle just before she fell.
Then he exerted force on his legs and climbed back to his original position.
Yu Nian and the servant were both shocked when they saw this scene. However, before they could say anything, Lu Yan grabbed the horse's reins.
She was already agile, and coupled with Lu Yan's fierce murderous aura, she was even more agile.
The horse, which had been struggling desperately just now, became obedient in an instant.
"Okay, come on up."
Lu Yan didn't feel at all that she had lost face in front of her sisters just now, and she stretched out her hand towards Yu Nian calmly.
The two men quickly paid the silver and rode their horses towards Xiaohe Village.
This journey was truly lightning fast.
Fortunately, it was getting dark.
There were almost no people left in the city. The horses galloped all the way, and Lu Yan and Yu Nian managed to get out of the city just before the city gate was locked.
To go from An County to Xiaohe Village, you have to pass through Dahe Village on the way.
The two of them hurried to Xiaohe Village because they were afraid that someone would use them as a handle to say something gossipy about them.
Whatever you fear will come true.
As soon as we left Dahe Village, we saw a man covered in blood lying on the side of the road.
Lu Yan looked closely and was stunned.
Looking over in the moonlight, Lu Yan quickly discovered...
This woman looks somewhat similar to Song Jiao'e.
"What's going on?" Yu Nian felt a pang of heartache when he saw this scene.
This woman was really covered in wounds.
The material of his clothes was indeed good, but they were soaked with blood. His disheveled appearance was truly horrifying.
"You should check her out first and see what's going on."
Although he didn't know what the relationship between this woman and Song Jiao'e was, Lu Yan didn't intend to leave her alone.
Mainly -
She had just been slow in pulling the reins.
like……
The horse's hoof stepped on the woman's foot.
Therefore, Lu Yan felt a little guilty facing the current situation.
Fortunately, Yu Nian was the doctor. She quickly took Yu Nian off the horse.
The two men quickly walked up to the woman.
Seeing her miserable appearance and the wounds all over her body, Lu Yan and Yu Nian couldn't help but gasp.
"Let me check her out first."
Now that the two of them had left the city, they were no longer in a hurry to return to Xiaohe Village.
So, Yu Nian squatted on the side of the road and examined the woman.
But what both of them didn't know was that at this moment, the old Gu family in Xiaohe Village was in chaos.
