Chapter 59 He silently guarded her all the way
He Zhiran knew that Mo Jiuye had figured it all out.
"Okay, let's work together to prevent those people from hurting our family."
In the house, a scene of a husband and wife working together to achieve their goal was being played out, while outside the police were already calling people to prepare to set off.
The sisters-in-law had already packed up all their belongings. Some carried tents, and others carried the quilts they had bought yesterday.
Yesterday, He Zhiran distributed food, vegetables, large iron pots and other items to the Fang family and the Xie family respectively, and each family was responsible for carrying their own items.
Peng Wang had said when he got up early that he was no longer in any danger, so he no longer squeezed on the wooden cart with Mo Jiuye.
Therefore, the Mo family placed all the food and kitchen utensils on one side of the wooden cart, leaving the empty space for Mo Jiuye.
Mo Jiuye thought of He Liang’s tragic death, and for safety reasons, he decided not to continue riding the wooden cart.
He asked He Zhiran to support him and walked out of the room.
The women of the Mo family all knew that Mo Jiuye was pretending to be seriously injured. Even so, they were stunned when they saw Mo Jiuye walk out of the house.
Because there were outsiders present, everyone tacitly agreed not to ask.
Instead, Peng Wang came over in surprise.
"Mo Jiuye, please don't be so stubborn. I just didn't see you yesterday, and you can leave?"
Mo Jiuye tried hard to soften his expression.
"I'm in good health, and my wife has taken good care of me, so I should be able to travel without any problems."
As he spoke, he looked sympathetically in the direction of the He family.
"I heard that He Ming's injury is more serious. In order not to delay their progress, my wife and I have discussed and decided to lend them the wooden cart for a few days."
Upon hearing this, He Zhiran complained about Mo Jiuye in his heart.
This man is really sinister. Not only does he want others to be his scapegoat to attract his attention, but he also wants to save the manpower of the Mo family in pushing the cart.
His move really kills two birds with one stone.
Thinking of what the He family had done, He Zhiran felt no sympathy for them at all, and even felt a sense of pleasure.
The He family and Mo Jiuye have a deep-seated grudge against each other, and it is impossible for them to let go of the past just because Mo Jiuye gave the wooden cart to He Ming.
However, considering the He family's current situation, they do need this wooden cart.
Seeing that Peng Wang did not object, He Zhiyuan didn't even say thank you, but walked forward and pushed the wooden cart away.
Mo Hanyue was confused and didn't understand what was going on. She became anxious when she saw so many of her belongings on the wooden cart.
"Brother Jiu, there are still our things in the car. What if someone steals them?"
Mo Jiuye replied calmly: "It's okay, with so many officials here, who would dare to steal other people's things?"
It would have been better if he hadn't said that. He Zhiyuan was almost so angry that he threw the things out of the car.
However, he still tried hard to suppress the anger in his heart.
If he did that, he could indeed relieve his anger temporarily, but what about He Ming?
There were only women and children in the house, and a man like him who could not lift or carry anything. How could he carry the burly He Ming?
No one looked at He Zhiyuan's face, which was as black as the bottom of a pot. After Peng Wang gave the order, the large exile army set off again.
Coming out of Yunlai County and walking on the official road, Zhou Laoba was always listless and would glance at He Zhiran from time to time.
He and Peng Wang walked at the end of the team, so He Zhiran and Mo Jiuye did not notice his abnormality.
However, Zhou Laoba's actions did not escape Peng Wang's eyes.
Peng Wang strongly disagreed with this, but it was not easy for him to say it openly, so he could only find a way to make Zhou Laoba give up.
"Mo Jiuye used to be so majestic. I still remember when he returned triumphantly, the emperor personally led all the civil and military officials out of the city to welcome him.
I saw the scene with my own eyes, and it shocked the whole city.
Even if he is convicted and exiled today, it cannot erase the honor he received back then."
Zhou Laoba was very sensitive when he heard Peng Wang suddenly mention Mo Jiuye.
"Boss, why are you saying all this for no reason?"
Peng Wang seriously suspected that Zhou Laoba was deliberately avoiding his problems.
Now that the conversation had begun, he didn't intend to let the other party continue to be vague.
"What I want to say is that Mo Jiuye is a rare talent, and his wife is no ordinary woman either. I think they are a perfect match."
"Boss, no matter how glorious Mo Jiuye was, that was only in the past. He has been exiled now. Even if he can reach the northwest alive, he will only be an ordinary citizen in the future.
Can he bring happiness to Heshi if he spends his whole life working as a farmer facing the earth and back to the sky?
Zhou Laoba hit the nail on the head when Peng Wang said this, and his rebuttal came from the bottom of his heart.
"What's more, He Shi and I have already had physical contact, how could Mo Jiuye not despise her?
Rather than letting your savior be despised by her husband for the rest of her life, it is better for her to follow me. At least I can treat her well."
Listening to Zhou Laoba's stubborn words, Peng Wang wanted to slap him a few times to wake him up.
"Old Eight, I'm telling you this because I treat you like my own brother."
After a pause, he pointed at the backs of He Zhiran and Mo Jiuye who were supporting each other.
"Don't fool yourself, okay?
Look at Mo Jiuye's expression, does he dislike He Shi?
The couple has a good relationship, I advise you to put aside those inappropriate thoughts as soon as possible."
In fact, what Zhou Laoba said was also from the heart.
He is a man who values friendship and loyalty, especially after learning that He Zhiran kissed him awake, he always wanted to take responsibility.
This is a man's minimum responsibility.
However, if you look carefully in the direction of Peng Wang's finger, you will see Mo Jiuye wiping the sweat off He Zhiran's face.
He had to admit that it was just as the boss said. Mo Jiuye did not dislike He Zhiran for this. Instead, he was very protective of her. This was an indisputable fact.
In that case, he would just silently protect her along the way.
"Boss, if Mo Jiuye can continue to treat He Shi like this, I won't do anything."
Seeing that Zhou Laoba could say such words, Peng Wang felt a little relieved.
His brother was too loyal and Peng Wang was afraid that he would get caught up in it and find it difficult to extricate himself.
However, this kind of reminder should only be given briefly. If it is said too much, it will easily make people bored. Peng Wang simply changed the topic to chat with Zhou Laoba in order to attract his attention and save him from staring at He Shi all the time.
If the Mo family finds out, He Zhiran will be in an awkward situation...
The large army traveled for a day, and just like before, they arrived at a small river before dark. Peng Wang ordered the large army to rest there.
The officials first went to the river to fill their water bags with water, and then sat against a big tree to rest.
The prisoners did the same, and those who had water bags ran to the river to add water.
He Zhiran saw the women of the Mo family also holding water bags and preparing to do the same, and hurriedly stopped them.
"Sisters-in-law, there are a lot of people by the river, so we can go there later."
The Mo family now obeyed He Zhiran's words almost without asking for reasons, and sat down obediently to continue resting.
Mo Jiuye followed He Zhiran's example last time, found a thicker branch, borrowed the officer's knife to sharpen it, and prepared to try to catch some fish in the river to enrich everyone's table.
