Qian Dazhi, who had just been taught a lesson, felt a little scared when looking at his sister's family. That group of people did not hold back at all when they dealt with him. He couldn't continue like this.
Qian Dazhi looked at his children not far away, thought for a moment, whispered a few words to Dong Erniang, and chased after them first.
Dong Erniang took her children and followed.
In front of the donkey cart, Qian Xiuzhu pulled up all the bedding in her hands and piled them in the vacant space, then tied them tightly with a hemp rope.
A series of cries behind her caused her grip to loosen.
"Xiuzhu, I wasn't kind to you before, but now it's a matter of life and death. Look at your nephews and nieces, how skinny they are! If you don't take care of them, my family will probably freeze to death outside Ganzhou City!"
Dong Erniang wiped her tears while secretly glancing at the horse-drawn carriage, donkey-drawn cart and the luggage on it.
How strange!
All I knew before was that Qian Xiuzhu was completely oppressed by her stepmother-in-law. Not to mention a donkey cart at home, it was considered lucky that she and her husband didn't treat them like donkeys. But they were able to afford a donkey cart just to escape the famine. What kind of luck did this family have?!
Qian Dazhi looked at Qian Xiuzhu in front of him and felt more and more aggrieved. They were obviously biological brother and sister, so how did they become like this?
"Mother-in-law." Zheng Wangshi walked over to Qian Xiuzhu, glanced at the family who were still pretending to wipe their tears, and whispered, "This matter is hard to explain. Let my father-in-law take a group of people to drag them away. When we enter the city, no matter where they come from, we will just pretend not to know them!"
"What the bald man said is right. Xiuzhu, don't get involved. Just let them make a fuss!" Second Madam also echoed.
Qian Xiuzhu nodded without any hesitation. She had lost her mother's home since the day her parents passed away.
In her dream, she sought help from her brother's family when she was desperate, but was driven out by Dong Erniang on a winter night. After walking for most of the night, her body could no longer support her.
Not to mention the death of my parents...
After waiting for a long time without seeing any response from Qian Xiuzhu, Qian Dazhi stamped his feet anxiously. Just as he was about to step forward, he was blocked by a group of people.
"Master Xu, I'm so sorry. You came here with great difficulty, but I still disturbed your interest..."
Jiang Boliang clasped his hands together and bowed deeply.
The man Jiang Boliang called "Master Xu" winked at his men, and a group of people quickly pulled the panicked Qian Dazhi and his family away.
"Brother-in-law! Jiang Boliang, you damned bastard—woo—"
"Let me go—"
“Wuwuwu…”
Jiang Boliang stared in amazement as Qian Dazhi's family was taken away. It was so cold that he broke out in a cold sweat.
These officials would drag people away if they had a disagreement. It was so scary.
Xu looked at Jiang Boliang and asked, "You are the one who saved His Royal Highness?"
Suppressing the fear in his heart, Jiang Boliang waved his hand and said, "It's not me, it's my second son and youngest daughter who happened to run into the injured Yun... Prince. When you're out and about, it's not a big deal to lend a hand to each other."
Manager Xu looked Jiang Boliang up and down, staring at him until he felt uneasy. Then he looked away and said, "You're lucky. We'll collect the licenses from each household later. Don't make any mistakes."
"Yeah, I understand." Jiang Boliang was so excited that he clasped his fists and bowed again, and his previous feeling of helplessness disappeared in an instant.
The next step was to line up and receive the badges. The black badges felt particularly heavy. Jiang Zhengmao and Jiang Boliang received more than 30 of them.
The moment the villagers walked into the city gate, they looked extremely dazed and walked with their feet turned.
"We are lucky to have met a noble man this time. We can settle down here without paying a single penny. Who would have believed this before?" Jiang Boliang said to Jiang Zhengmao in a vague voice.
Jiang Zhengmao touched his empty silver bag, feeling distressed. "Who told you not to take a single copper coin? I already gave this much to these officials."
He held up two fingers.
Jiang Boliang was shocked, "So many?!"
Jiang Zhengmao sighed and said, "Whether you meet an important person or not, you have to bribe them a little to make things easier for you in the future. This is Ganzhou City. If you don't bribe them enough, others will not take you seriously at all."
"Brother is really thoughtful." Jiang Boliang also sighed, "As for the silver, just take it from the box we got from Yangjiao Mountain."
Jiang Zhengmao waved his hand nonchalantly, "We'll talk about these things later, later."
Qian Dazhi, who was being taught a lesson behind them, watched his sister and her family driving into the city with their carriage, his eyes almost popping out.
Dong Erniang's eyes turned red with jealousy. She turned around and saw Qian Dazhi looking stupid, and she sat down on the ground in anger.
"Look, look, this is your sister! Her heart is clearly made of stone! She doesn't even care whether you, her brother, live or die!"
When Qian Dazhi heard this, he was filled with rage. "If you hadn't stopped me from leaving with my sister and her family, would we be in this situation now? Could Erya be eaten by others?!"
His heart was churning, and he wanted to pour out everything he wanted to say. "Isn't it all because of you, this unlucky woman, that I'm in this state now? If it weren't for you, would my parents have been pissed off to death?"
Dong Erniang sneered, "That's not what you said at the beginning. Now that your sister is doing well, you start to reflect on your parents' past kindness? Ugh!"
Qian Dazhi was provoked by her and rushed over with red eyes.
When the couple was fighting, Jiang Huaixu was sitting in the carriage listening to Jiang Tao talking about his mother's life before she got married.
She pulled out the silver needle from Jiang Tao's leg and asked curiously, "Aunt, were my parents angered to death by Dong Erniang as outsiders say?"
"You don't know?" Jiang Tao was surprised. After thinking for a moment, she whispered, "Well, you're young. It's just a small matter between neighbors."
