In order to choose this room, Su Chengyi gave Qian Xiaosheng another string of money.
He said that there were many women and children in the family, and many of them were injured, so it would be convenient to use hot water in the kitchen. He also gave Qian Xiaosheng another 100 grams of silver, and Qian Xiaosheng agreed to use the small kitchen to steam some mixed dough buns and make some hot soup in the evening.
Song Jinhe thought that no matter how many things there were in Mibaobao's space, they couldn't take them out rashly, for fear that they would be discovered and harm Mibaobao. They tried to make food and supplies outside as much as possible.
After all, her elder brother sent her food, bedding, clothes, and also thoughtfully prepared salt and a jar of lard.
These things were all pulled on the cart, and everyone could see them. At night, the women steamed some more buns to take with them, but they had to rely on the few black buns and wild vegetable soup that the officials gave them, which was not enough to support them.
"mouse!"
Gu Yueyan thought about carrying Su Zhenbei onto the bed first. As soon as she entered the room, she went straight to the bed and checked the bedding.
The bed was a shabby wooden plank bed covered with straw and a tattered quilt of unrecognizable color.
As soon as the quilt on the bed was lifted, a mouse jumped out, leaped to the ground, wiggled around under people's feet, and ran away.
"This is a room that costs five taels of silver a night. It's really a rip-off."
Ye Ranqing immediately rubbed his hands and wanted to go out to find the postman. But Song Jinhe pulled him back, "Seventh brother's wife, take a rest and don't get angry."
The eldest sister-in-law Du Liniang also pulled her back, "Seventh sister-in-law, second sister-in-law is right, it's good enough that the postman can let us live in the house for five taels of silver."
Song Jinhe nodded repeatedly, "Yes, Seventh Sister-in-law, don't be impulsive. We are prisoners, not guests."
Looking at her two sisters-in-law, Ye Ranqing's eyes turned red. Yes, she was impulsive again.
"The bedding on this bed is not only damp, but also has bugs in it."
Gu Yueyan just screamed that there was a mouse, and now she felt a little embarrassed. She thought that Aunt Qi was impulsive and wanted to find the postman because of her scream. In fact, she has always been steady, so why would she make a fuss over a mouse?
After checking the bedding, she couldn't help frowning.
The cotton in the bedding was old and was hard and cold, with nits and lice growing in the seams.
"This is a post station. These are beds for prisoners to sleep in. Who cares about these things?"
Old Madam Su was very calm. She had followed the old Duke to conquer the world with the late emperor in her early years, and had walked through mountains of blood and mountains of corpses. She had experienced all kinds of hardships. These were all trivial matters. She looked at her children and grandchildren. After all, these children grew up in a wealthy family. How could they have seen rats and lice? "Rats are easy to deal with, but lice are not. They need to be scalded with hot water to kill them completely."
Su Ma was a little embarrassed. She and Old Lady Su were both from the countryside and had done a lot of housework with the sisters-in-law and aunts in the village. In winter, the sisters-in-law and aunts at home would fold and wash the bedding and iron the lice off it.
"It's just one night, it's not that important. It's just——"
Su Chengyi was a little embarrassed. It didn't matter if it happened to others, but he really couldn't imagine how horrible the scene would be if the King of Yan's cloak and tiger-skin mattress were spread on the wooden bed and it was filled with lice the next day.
【Family members, don’t worry, I have a solution. 】
A clear, baby-like voice suddenly rang out. Except for Old Madam Su and a few others who could hear Su Mibao's inner thoughts, the rest of the people in the room opened their mouths wide and looked at each other in horror.
[Hehe, my family, don't be afraid. Let me introduce myself first. I am Mibaobao, your little baby. I can talk to you with my heart. I have many special powers. Don't worry, I will be with you from now on. I will make sure you will not suffer or endure the pain on the road to exile. No one will be left behind.]
Mi Baby? Is this little baby voice their Mi Baby? Everyone looked at Old Madam Su.
"Yes, everyone heard it. That was Mibaobao's voice just now."
Old Madam Su looked at Su Mibao in her arms lovingly. She knew that her Mibao's special ability would be used along the way, and her family would know about it sooner or later. It was a good opportunity to take advantage of this opportunity. Everyone was in the same room tonight, so she let everyone know about it first.
"Our Su family is worthy of the emperor and the people. In this great disaster, God has not abandoned our Su family and has sent down the lucky star Mi Baobao to protect our Su family."
"Master Guiyi said that if a phoenix appears in three generations, the world's best family will be born. As long as Baby Mi is here, our Su family will be here. From now on, everyone must do everything they can to protect Baby Mi."
"All listen to the ancestors."
Everyone nodded, with tears in their eyes and joy in their hearts.
The Su family is not a traitor. God has eyes and will bless them with blessings.
With their ancestors and lucky stars around, they are not afraid of anything.
"Mi Baobao said that the eldest brother is missing, General Song was captured but not dead, and the third brother has a broken arm and is imprisoned in Yancheng Prison. The eighth brother is missing. When we get to Yancheng, we will definitely find a way to rescue them. Zhenbei's injury will be cured when we find them. Our Su family will not perish."
The despair and frustration that had been building up since their house was ransacked finally dissipated a little after hearing the old lady's words.
There are still men in their Su family, not just a few women and children.
The Su family has ancestors, little lucky stars, and living men.
The Su family will never perish.
[Sister-in-law gets up.]
Su Mibao just clicked on the two-way mind-reading function in the system and enabled all sixteen people in the second branch of the Su family to use the two-way mind-reading function with her.
Gu Yueyan listened to the reminder from the clear little baby voice and quickly got up and moved away from the wooden bed.
With a wave of his hand, the wooden bed disappeared in full view of everyone. It disappeared without making any sound.
[Mom, how about taking out the luxurious bed in your room? It's big enough and convenient to use? ]
"Mi baby, don't be so ostentatious. It's best to take down the wooden bed in the other room. Take a few and put them together."
Song Jinhe was startled and quickly stopped Su Mibao.
[Okay, I'll listen to my beautiful mother. How many do you want? Are these enough? ]
The Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion has always been kind to its servants. The beds are all made of solid wood, and a new set of bedding is given every two years.
"That's enough. That's enough."
Watching the servants' beds appear out of thin air in the room, Song Jinhe counted to six and quickly called a halt.
The room was small, with six wooden beds, and although each was only 1.2 meters wide, there wasn't much space left.
"Isn't this the old slave's bed?"
Looking at the familiar bedding on the bed, Nanny Su opened her eyes wide.
"This belongs to the servant."
Nanny Song looked at her own bedding on the other bed and smiled. She hurried over and lifted the pillow. There was a dressing box underneath. When she opened it, there were banknotes and jewelry inside.
"Young lady, you have brought all the assets of this servant."
