Zhao Kelan ran as fast as she could. When she saw that there were no people around, she quickly took a detour to get back to the village. She was afraid that they would interrogate her and reveal her secrets, or that someone would ambush and arrest her.
What she didn't know was that she was lucky she took a detour; if she had taken the original route back to the village, she would definitely have been arrested, and they would have been waiting for her there.
That can't be! We met her right here. Has she gone back to the village? It's so late.
Zhao Kelan's family is very worried. Where did this child go? She hasn't come back yet. They can't believe something happened to her.
I had just gone out to look for her when I saw my daughter return.
"Where have you been? Why are you back so late?"
When Kelan returned, she took out the wild vegetables she had hidden, ready to hand them over. She could have returned much earlier.
That group of people ruined things; we need to think of a way to avoid them finding out about us.
“Father and Mother, I got lost in the mountains while picking wild vegetables. I was very scared, but I found the marks I made and came back.”
"Alright, next time you're on the mountain, let your sisters-in-law keep you company. Don't go out by yourself, the whole family is worried about you."
"I understand, I definitely won't do it again next time."
Li Chao and his men couldn't find anyone here, and they couldn't find out who went into the city. They had tried to investigate before but had no clue.
Everyone assumed they had snuck out, but today these people said they were the ones who had been watching them on this road, making him suspect once again that they were from the village.
Let's see which village has this road; we might make a great discovery.
The next day, people from the village came. After all, only four people from the village had ever passed through this road. They were going to check first to see if they had found anything.
"Jianjun, what's going on in this village? There are quite a few people here. What's the situation? They say they're looking for someone."
"Tingting, do you think it's possible that this time-traveling woman was discovered selling things? When we were almost discovered before, people came to investigate the village, and we quickly packed up our things."
“Okay, let’s use a broken one. We can put the wild vegetables on the noodles. We can put away this big iron pot and replace it with something else. Nobody in the village knows we have an iron pot. It wasn’t given to us when we divided the family property.”
"Alright, put these bowls and chopsticks away too. Luckily, this guy is usually careful. The entrance to the village is being watched, so no one can leave. He might be at our house in a little while."
I pulled off the diapers for Zhu Zi, and also for my two younger sons. I put away all the formula. The house looked like it had nothing at all.
This also served as a wake-up call for the two of them; they had become accustomed to this comfortable life and started to relax a bit.
When Qin Yecai heard that people had come to the village to search for things and people, she broke out in a cold sweat. What was going on? She quickly packed up all the extra things she had packed at home.
He wondered if someone had gone to the city to sell something. Such a commotion meant there must have been a lot of stuff, otherwise they wouldn't have searched for it.
They must have been suspected. It must be that Zhao Kelan, that good-for-nothing. How could she be discovered selling something?
Qin Yecai was worried that if this fool got caught, she might suspect her.
After all, I made quite a commotion when I arrived. If her secret is discovered, I won't be able to escape either. She will definitely take me with her, so I need to think of a way.
Zhao Kelan was also scared. They had come all the way to the village to search, so did they suspect her? After all, she had done something so big, so she was bound to feel guilty.
