Chapter 84 Finding a Second Mother for You
Su Nuan threw the branch away and said, "Forget it, there will always be a way out when you reach the mountain."
Cheng Feng laughed and said, "So if you ask me to settle down there, I don't have much confidence."
Su Nuan understood his thoughts. Who would be willing to settle in a place with no hope?
She stood up and went back to the fire to continue eating the meat. She would talk about the future later. It was a bit tiring to think about it now.
After eating and drinking, Su Nuan returned to the carriage just as it was getting dark.
Xue was sitting by the fire at the entrance of the tent. She saw Su Nuan and asked, "Do you know who those people behind are?"
Su Nuan replied: "It is said that his name is Ye Mingcheng."
Xue shook her head, "I've never heard of it."
Su Nuan shrugged. "Don't worry about them. The road is not ours. If they want to follow us, let them follow. If we encounter bandits, they will definitely rob them, and we can take the opportunity to run away."
Xue's frown relaxed, a smile spreading across her face, "That's good."
Su Nuan took out some sweet potatoes and placed them next to the fire.
Xue asked in surprise: "Where did it come from?"
Su Nuan smiled and said, "I bought them from the village. They were also short of food, so they wouldn't sell anything except mountain products. I bought a few at a high price."
After saying that, she looked at Xue, wondering if Xue would blame her for spending money recklessly.
Xue Shi didn't mean to blame Su Nuan. She smiled and said, "From now on, if you see anything you want to eat or use, just buy it. Don't worry about the money. We're in the north, and we won't be able to spend money even if we have it."
Su Nuan nodded. She told the story of selling barbecue and then explained, "I thought that the banknotes were too large and we couldn't buy the corresponding items, so I gave them to Cheng Feng."
"I think Cheng Feng is a good person during this period. If I give it to him, he can help me buy some things we need."
Xue nodded. "Well, you can do whatever you want. I don't care about these things, and I'm too lazy to care."
"Anyway, don't just think about us all the time, think about yourself too. Just do whatever you want."
Su Nuan smiled and said, "I know. How could I let myself down? Here, I want to eat this sweet potato too."
Xue then smiled and said, "That's right, you don't owe us anything, and you've done well enough, don't worry about what others say."
Su Nuan didn't have these concerns. She would just say whatever others said and ignore them. If someone annoyed her, she would just beat them up and that would stop her.
The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law started chatting again, and only went to rest when the moon was above the treetops.
We set off early the next morning. With a car, we could travel several times faster.
But the road ahead is deserted and the road surface is difficult to drive on, with many potholes and very bumpy.
Su Nuan didn't want to ride in the car and followed it. She regretted not buying a horse.
The team walked for another half a month. The grass on the roadside was covered with a layer of frost and the temperature was very low.
Su Nuan also put on a coat, rabbit leather boots made by Xue, and held a heater in her hands.
She couldn't help but sigh, "This is almost as cold as winter in the capital. Wouldn't it be even colder in the north?"
In her previous life, she never went out in the winter in the north. She stayed at home with a charcoal fire burning, living a life of having everything provided for her.
I have no idea how cold it is outside, and I have no idea what it feels like to work in such cold weather.
Cuiyi said, "It should be even colder in the north. I heard the snow was more than a person's height."
Su Nuan laughed and said, "How is that possible? The snow won't melt at such a high altitude?"
Cui Yi also laughed, "I don't know either. Maybe the rumors are exaggerated."
Su Nuan looked up at the sky. It was gray and it might be snowing. It definitely wouldn’t rain in such a cold day.
Cheng Feng rode over and said with a worried look on his face, "Sister, do you have any medicine for the cold? Many people up there have caught a cold."
Su Nuan nodded, "Yes, I'll get it for you."
She went to the back of the carriage and took out a bag of herbs. "This is what I prepared. There are a hundred packets in this bag. Boil each packet three times, and the mixture is enough for one person to drink for a day."
Cheng Feng rode back with the bag.
Su Nuan thought for a moment and said, "Mom, I'll go behind the tree over there."
Xue thought she was going to the bathroom, so she said, "Okay, be careful."
"I understand." Su Nuan trotted off the road and came behind a large dead tree on the side of the road.
She entered the space directly and quickly found the typhoid pills that she had taken from the palace.
The pills are covered with a wax shell, so they can be stored for three months.
She went back with the pills and placed them in a box in the back of the car.
"Su Nuan." A roar came.
Su Nuan frowned and looked over. It was Su Liren who was showing off in front of her after not seeing her for a few days.
He looks good, with a rosy complexion and a hint of spring in his eyes. This guy actually still has the mind to mess around with women.
Su Liren changed into a clean cotton robe, and his beard and hair were very neatly groomed.
Su Nuan discovered that her father was actually quite handsome, no wonder he was able to trick her mother into marrying him.
Su Liren said proudly: "I found a second wife for you."
Su Nuan stumbled and almost fell. She scratched her ears, suspecting that she had heard it wrongly.
Su Liren continued, "Did you hear that? I found you a second wife."
Su Nuan stood firm, afraid that she would really fall.
"Then what?"
Su Liren was very annoyed by her indifferent attitude and said angrily, "What then? Hurry up and bring out some good food. I want to treat you."
Su Nuan frowned and asked, "Su Liren, what is your position in treating us?"
Su Liren said proudly: "Your second mother said that she would buy me freedom when I go to the north, and she would also donate an official position for me."
"As your father, I now order you to bring out the meat and vegetables. I want to make it known to everyone."
The corners of Su Nuan's mouth twitched. This guy is really capable. I admire him.
She asked, "Where is that woman? I want to see who is so desperate."
Su Liren was very proud now, too lazy to argue with Su Nuan, and said, "Come on, I'll take you to see it."
Su Nuan followed willingly this time.
Ling Yun took a few quick steps, grabbed Su Nuan's sleeve, and asked with a smile: "Wherever sister-in-law goes, Xiao Yun wants to go too."
Su Nuan nodded, "Let's go see the idiot."
Xiaoyun nodded vigorously, "Okay, okay, let's go see the idiot."
Su Liren said angrily: "Watch your mouth."
Su Nuan glanced sideways, "Then don't come to me."
Su Liren snorted and strode to the back of the team.
Su Nuan was a little surprised. Could it be someone from the Ye family?
They passed the largest carriage and stopped beside the smaller one at the back.
Su Liren smiled and said, "Yingying, I brought her here."
A young girl came out of the car. It was the same girl who followed the Ye family's nanny. She still looked unruly.
She looked at Su Nuan, jealousy flashing in her eyes, and snorted coldly: "Why did you bring her here? She's just a lowly prisoner."
As soon as these words came out, someone in the car scolded, "Don't talk nonsense, that's your sister."
Su Nuan touched her nose. She had a younger sister out of nowhere. "You scumbag dad, you are so capable."
