Chapter 18



Chapter 18 Only the loyal ones remain

As soon as he finished speaking, no one dared to move at first. Later, when they saw the butler took out the indenture, everyone took action. However, a few people who acted faster went to take the medicine.

When there was only one left, Su Nuoli put the last one away. There were four people standing in the yard who had taken the medicine, and the rest had already received their money and left.

"Young lady, why did you take the medicine away? I want to keep it."

"I won't keep any of you four. You don't deserve to take this medicine. You really want to stay and you really are calculating. You want to buy time until the medicine is gone. You can stay without taking the medicine.

But I want to say that you are overthinking it. Don’t treat others as fools just because you are a little clever! Uncle Changgui, I'll sell you your indentures, but you are not allowed to pay me. If they don't leave, they will be sold to human beings. ”

"Miss, I just did something and I haven't taken the medicine yet. Can you give me this medicine? I must follow the master."

"This is for you. After you four leave, lock the door and bring the one who has taken the medicine to the central hall."

He left after saying this, without taking away a speck of dust!

It was the first time that the central hall was so crowded, and my grandfather, as the head of the family and the elder, came out to speak.

"The medicine I gave you just now will not affect your thoughts. It is not poisonous. It is just some secrets that cannot be told out loud. It is called keeping your mouth shut.

I have left spies in the palace. We estimate that our homes will be confiscated and we will be exiled in five days. We can't escape or hide. He was implicated by the Prime Minister's Office.

However, since my daughter is only a concubine, there is a high probability that we will not be demoted to exiles. At most, we will be demoted to commoners, and then we will be free after being exiled for thousands of miles. Is there anyone among you who doesn't want to go with us? ”

"We swear to protect our master until our death!" said the ten servants in unison.

"Well, Nuoli, you go ahead and talk. I'm tired!"

"Okay, Grandpa! Everyone knows that exile is no small matter. Although we are not criminals, the journey of exile will not be particularly comfortable, so we will only keep loyal people around us.

The fact that you took the medicine regardless of everything proves your loyalty, so I won't treat you badly. I have already arranged food for you during your exile, so just get through it safely.

I will arrange the work for the ten of you. Madam Du and Madam Cai will be in charge of the meals, Uncle Changgui, Zhao Gang and Yunlong will be in charge of collecting firewood and the like. The remaining four people, I know you are the guards responsible for protecting grandpa, and you are in excellent health.

Then Su Yi and Su Er will protect grandpa, Su San and Su Si will protect dad and mom, and my brothers and I will be healthy and don't need any protection.

Finally, Xia Zhu, you just need to help mend clothes and the like. I've already arranged it, so don't panic. I'm just making preparations for you so that you won't be left like quails when the time comes. That's it, everyone, go down! ”

"Grandpa, everything has been arranged. Don't worry. My granddaughter will prepare some good wine for you tomorrow. You can also go to Mr. Xue next door to have a drink."

"Hahahaha, that's great! Then I have to go back to bed early. I'll go find 놛 for a drink tomorrow morning."

"Li'er, I...what about our family's finances? We have converted them all into cash, and it will be difficult for us to take the money if our house is searched! How about we spend it all in these five days?" A Niang said anxiously.

"Mom, don't worry. I was just about to tell you that our brothers will help deliver food on the way, but you have to carry your belongings yourself. When my master passed away, he gave me two mustard seed spaces. No living things can be kept there. I can only put my belongings in the ten designated boxes.

So you have to fold your gold, silver, ornaments and the like on paper and place them there, otherwise they won’t fit.

Once the mustard seed space is opened, it can only be used twice, but I think our exile will not be that long, so it should be enough.

You and daddy can bleed together, but I want to tell you that this thing shouldn't be here, so be careful when taking it. It would be difficult to solve if someone found out.

Of course you can't explain it, because you who have been choked by the mouth can't say a word about things that shouldn't be in this place.

Also, please note that once it is opened now, if you do not take out the things in the ring within two days, the things will disappear along with the ring. ”
