Chapter 52 Arrival at Changti City (2/2)



It was also for this reason that Wu Jinyu did not marry out of the family, but instead married a servant.

The reason Fu Xinhan was able to enter the Wu family was simply because Mr. Wu was attracted by his status as a scholar."

Xiao Ling'er understood it immediately. Merchants in ancient times had a very low status. If the Wu family could really enter the officialdom and bring honor to the family, Mr. Wu would definitely worship Wu Jinyu as a lucky star.

But is Wu Jinyu really a lucky star? Xiao Ling'er is skeptical. With her intelligence and what she has done, sooner or later she will bring disaster to the Wu family.

No, she has already gotten herself into trouble and died!

Forget it, no matter whether she is a lucky star or a disastrous star, she should be reporting to the King of Hell at this moment.

The important thing now is to get to Changti City as soon as possible.

Xiao Ling'er told Xiao Ruyi and Ahua that Cangbian State was going to attack Changti City, and told them that they must reach Changti City within more than 20 days.

After Xiao Ruyi and Ahua heard the news, they felt a sense of urgency. They didn't waste any more time and started to hurry on their way again.

Xiao Ruyi and Ahua tacitly did not ask Xiao Ling'er why Wu Jinyu and Fu Xinhan appeared in that forest.

Since the death of Fu Xinhan and Wu Jinyu, the relationship between Xiao Ruyi and her daughter has changed significantly, and both changes are for the better.

The four silver notes that Xiao Ruyi took from Fu Zhanan were each worth 100,000 taels, totaling 400,000 taels, which was enough for her and Ahua, mother and daughter, to have food and clothing for the rest of their lives.

Xiao Ruyi insisted on giving Xiao Ling'er a silver note, but Xiao Ling'er refused it outright, saying that she was not short of money at the moment.

Unexpectedly, Xiao Ruyi's attitude was extremely tough. Xiao Ling'er did not accept it and she was very angry.

Mu Xi took the banknote and quickly hid it in his arms, then looked at Xiao Ling'er with a pair of innocent big eyes.

Helpless, Xiao Ling'er didn't say anything more. What could she do with her own mother? Just spoil her!

I planned in my mind that I would find an opportunity to compensate my aunt and Ah Hua from other places later.

. . . .

After Xiao Ruyi knew that Xiao Ling'er and her mother and son were going to Jianzhou, he decided to go with them.

Originally, the Wu family went to Luzhou, which was two cities away from Jianzhou. Now she and Ahua could not go to Luzhou.

However, Xiao Ruyi and her daughter did not know at the moment that plans did not change quickly and they would soon be separated.

This journey was extremely smooth. Eighteen days later in the afternoon, Xiao Ling'er and the other four stood at the gate of Changti City.

Looking at the tightly closed city gate and the crowds of people outside the gate, Xiao Linger's heart skipped a beat. Judging from the situation, are they not going to let the refugees into the city?

"Sister, what should we do?" Xiao Yuhao asked worriedly as he looked at the closed city gate.

"Let's find a place away from the crowd to rest. I'll go find out what's going on later."

Xiao Ling'er said this and quickly left the crowd with a few people, coming to a corner at the foot of a slope, where it was not easy to be discovered.

After the few of them settled down, Xiao Ling'er went to the crowd to get information -

Just then, I heard an old man sighing and saying, "The city gate has not been opened yet. I'm afraid something bad is going to happen!"

"Hey, what are you talking about, old man? Isn't it good enough that there are people providing porridge and water every day?

As long as they bring me water and porridge every day, I don't care when they open the city gates, I'm fine with living here!"

A man with a pointed chin and monkey-like features spoke up, his tone full of pride as if he had gotten the upper hand.

"That's right. If they provide free porridge and water here for a long time, I can stay here for a long time." A disheveled woman behind the man followed up. This chapter has been read (please click on the next chapter to continue reading!)
