Chapter 217: Confiscation and Exile Control Group 23
But now the amulet is nowhere to be found, and Pei Xinmei’s mouth seems to be locked, so nothing can be said about her. We can only take things one step at a time!
At the same time, he was angry and annoyed.
Why did he go and do other things before getting angry with himself? He should have come earlier. Maybe he could see with his own eyes what was going on with the amulet that Pei Xinmei cared so much about.
One wrong step leads to another!
Pei Xinmei was even more angry. She could lose something so important to her. What a waste.
Pei Xinlan's family always stayed away from the eldest wife, for fear of being involved with them again.
There was no need to worry about food and drink at home. The puppet couple fed them from time to time, which helped the people in the second house to recover a lot during the journey.
He increased his exercise and diet, and took two strengthening pills that Pei Xinlan secretly gave him when he first went into exile.
Apart from being a little tanned and having rough skin, there are no other problems with the whole family!
They don't want to live too close to the big house, otherwise their good quality of life will plummet.
There are countless trivial matters, which makes me upset just thinking about them!
Just keep your distance and live in peace!
During this period, the third prince came several times to get close to the second branch of the Pei family.
But Pei Xinmei and Pei Moli were always by his side.
These two people were like two door gods, protecting the third prince tightly in the middle and staring at Pei Xinlan with a vigilant look!
Pei Xinlan was truly speechless.
What are these two people thinking? How old are they? Only ten years old at most.
Are these two crazy women out of their minds? They think too much. Are they perverts?
No matter how hungry the Third Prince was, he wouldn't have any intentions towards a ten-year-old girl like her.
This really made Pei Xinlan see the diversity of the brain!
When they were in the eldest branch of the Pei family, Pei Xinmei and Pei Moli were competitors who fought openly and secretly.
But once they left the Pei family's main house, the two of them immediately united as a team.
Is this considered a different kind of telepathy?
The third prince came to the second house several times, asking questions and investigating, but he didn't find anything unusual.
After that I lost interest and stopped coming!
When she was about to be exiled, Pei Xinlan suddenly discovered one day that the two men in black had returned!
As before, they watched the exiled people from afar.
This time, they didn't drug me like before, but came to search me at night.
However, they did not let the Third Prince and his secret guards discover their presence!
Ever since the third prince sneaked into the Pei family, the secret guards have been hiding in the dark and watching!
The third prince is really bold enough to sacrifice himself for something that may not even exist. He really invested a lot of money!
Just as everyone was watching the two sisters from the first house trying various ways to please the third prince, they finally arrived at their destination of exile!
After arriving at the exile site, the number of exiles who died was not too high, but a full quarter of the population was missing!
They are all weak people, or people who have no money to buy supplies and can only survive by eating black-faced steamed bread every day!
After receiving the new identity documents at the government office, I was taken to a village by the yamen runners!
The village chief came over slowly to receive these people. He was very skilled at this job.
After receiving the people, the village chief smacked his pipe twice and said, "I know you were all nobles in Kyoto before, but now that you are here, you are all the same!
There are no ready-made houses for you to live in here. Each family will be given a piece of land to build their own house.
What remains is that each person will be given two acres of wasteland. No matter what method you use, you must plant crops on all of these lands.
This is the regulation from above. If you fail to plant it, someone from above will come to punish you.
The heads of each family will come over soon, and we will first divide up the homesteads and wasteland among each family!"
Master Pei Er went to divide the land, while Pei Xinlan followed her grandmother and mother to sort out her own things.
See if there is anything missing, and ask the puppet couple to buy it back before they leave!
You know, exiles cannot leave the village without permission.
To farm, at least they don't have the farm tools, and they are also in dire need of food and basic living supplies, so they have to trouble the young couple!
You can’t buy all these things in one trip, you have to make a few more trips!
After Master Pei came back, everyone in the family stopped what they were doing and listened to Master Pei talk about where their family would be assigned next!
Master Pei Er said, “I have asked for a piece of land near the foot of the mountain to build a house. There is a small house there now.
Even though half of it collapsed, it's still better than having no shelter at all. At least we don't have to continue sleeping in the wild.
I plan to ask the villagers to help us build the house later, so that it will be much faster!
Living at the foot of the mountain will keep us away from the main house, so we don’t have to be too close, which will cause a lot of trouble in the future.”
When the family members heard this, they all thought it was a good idea.
The farther away they are, the less chances of being involved. From now on, as long as they are polite when giving gifts during the New Year holidays, no one can say anything bad about their family!
After saying everything that needed to be said, the family started to get busy.
The old lady and the second lady took the paper and pen they got from the puppet couple and listed the things they needed one by one.
The second master also wrote down some of the things needed to build a house, and then he went to find the village chief and asked him to help find someone to build the house, and also to inquire whether there were any channels to buy building materials.
Pei Xinlan and her two brothers started cleaning up the collapsed house. They had to clean it up quickly and eliminate the danger so that they could have a good rest at night!
While the second branch of the family was busy, the first branch of the family encountered a problem.
Just because they have no money in their pockets to build a house!
The residential land had been divided up, and the old general and the eldest master came back and told their families that they had been allocated a good piece of land.
Unexpectedly, when I asked Pei Xinmei for money to invite people to help build the house, Pei Xinmei said that all the money had been spent!
This sentence was like a thunderclap, which stunned the whole family!
Boss Pei's eyes widened in disbelief: "What? All spent? Didn't you say before that there's no need to worry about the exile?
We only bought supplies that one time before, and we haven't spent any money since then. How come it's all gone?"
After the Third Prince infiltrated the Pei family's team, in order to express his apology for causing trouble to the eldest wife of the Pei family, he actually asked the messenger to buy some supplies for him because he was dissatisfied with the poor food in exile. The eldest wife of the Pei family didn't even need to go into the city to buy things!
When the Third Prince's secret guard came to deliver the banknotes, he thought that someone would protect him and he could leave directly.
Unexpectedly, he said that the road was still unsafe and he wanted his men to find out the mastermind behind his pursuit before he could go back.
