Chapter 204: Confiscation and Exile Control Group 10
That's fine, just call her Xiaoshu. She changes her name every time she arrives in a new world anyway. It's normal for Baozi to find it troublesome!
After Pei Xinlan woke up, she didn't open her eyes in a hurry. She first told Baozi that she was awake, and then spread out her spiritual sense, wanting to see what these people who came in wanted to do!
She couldn't wake up for such a long time just now. It was obvious that she was drugged. It is better to keep her in static state for now.
Unexpectedly, two masked men in black came and stood with the chief of the police!
The captain said, "Sir, I lit the cigarette after they went to bed, and it has been taking effect for a while now.
The most suspicious person found today is the eldest daughter of the Pei family.
She was locked up in jail for ten days, and today someone saw her having some snacks!
Moreover, no one sent anything to the eldest wife of the Pei family along the way. I wonder where her snacks came from!
Also, today the Pei family's first and second branches separated, and I don't know if this is considered unusual or not!"
A man in black nodded and said, "Who discovered her eating snacks?"
"She's the youngest daughter of the second wife of the Pei family, and the youngest son of the first wife of the Pei family!"
The man in black hummed lightly and said, "Well done. Just keep watching and see if there are any other abnormalities among these people. Then report them."
This trip back, you will definitely benefit from it, so you can go down first!"
The captain listened to the black-clad man's instructions, asked no more questions, and turned back to the carriage where he was sleeping.
I closed the curtains tightly and didn’t dare to see what was happening outside!
There's obviously something going on here. The more you know, the faster you die.
He is just a messenger. He just needs to do the job assigned by his superiors and ignore everything else. Only then can he stay safe!
The man in black waited until the captain returned to the carriage, the two looked at each other, and then started to act!
They began to search everyone, with the main target being the Pei family.
Pei Xinmei was the main target of the search, but after searching the Pei family's first house thoroughly, the two men in black looked at each other, shook their heads in disappointment, and then walked towards the Pei family's second house.
When the two men in black approached, Pei Xinlan used hypnosis to tamper with their memories.
Let them think that they had searched the second branch of the Pei family and found nothing.
I don’t know who they are, so it’s better to be cautious. The more you do, the more mistakes you will make!
Just let them think that the Pei family’s second branch has been searched and found nothing!
These two people should stop coming up and searching. You won’t find anything here. Don’t waste your energy. Just look for somewhere else.
The man in black didn't get anything today. After searching everyone, he turned around and left, continuing to search for other people!
After searching everyone, Pei Xinlan used her spiritual sense to watch them walk away, turned over, and continued to sleep.
I don’t know whether they are the emperor’s men or the third prince’s men.
In his previous life, wasn’t the third prince injured and rescued, and then joined the team?
Has the routine changed in this life?
Or hasn't it been time to save the third prince yet?
As she was thinking, Pei Xinlan fell asleep!
When they woke up the next day, no one noticed anything unusual. They just thought that they were exhausted from the day before, so they slept more deeply last night.
After walking all day yesterday and sleeping all night, everyone is now suffering from back pain. The aftereffects have all come back. Many people are now lying on the ground and unable to get up!
The second branch of the Pei family has elixirs secretly distributed by Pei Xinlan. Although they also feel tired, they are still much stronger than others!
When Pei Xinlan got up, Master Pei Er had already boiled a pot of water and was busy filling it with water bags so that they could drink it on the road.
Pei Xinlan came back after washing up, and while drinking water, she quietly added a strengthening pill into the water bag.
The dry biscuits sent by the Lin family were only enough for the morning meal after some were given to the eldest son's family after the family was divided.
Mr. Pei decided not to eat the cakes himself and leave two pancakes for his mother, wife and children to fill at noon.
Seeing that Mr. Pei was about to eat the black-faced steamed bread, the Second Madam hurriedly said, "Don't eat the steamed bread. Wait until you finish the pancakes. At worst, we can ask the servants to buy some rice and cook porridge."
Master Pei Er remembered that when the family was divided yesterday, there wasn't much silver left, so he said, "That hundred or so taels of silver is not enough to spend. Let's save some!"
Old Madam Pei and Second Madam Pei looked at each other and laughed secretly.
Master Pei was completely bewildered by the laughter. Madam Pei whispered to him, "There were banknotes in the packages sent by the Lin and Zheng families. Lan'er had secretly hidden them away when we discussed the division of the family yesterday. We are not short of money!"
Only a few women in the family knew about this matter, and the men had no idea about it at all.
When they heard this, they first showed joy on their faces, and then the whole family couldn't help but laugh out loud.
Pei Xinlan also wanted to take this opportunity to tell her family about the puppet following behind, so that her family would have an idea!
"There's one thing I haven't told you yet. The donkey cart following the exile team is for people who are here to take care of us. They will take us to the place of exile and then back again!"
This time, the family was truly stunned, but it was Master Pei who came to his senses first: "Lan'er, when did you arrange this person? Is he reliable?"
Pei Xinlan rolled her eyes and said, "Dad, what are you thinking about?
I'm not some fortune teller who knows in advance that we're going to be exiled.
I saved those two people before, and they said they came to repay my gratitude!
What happened was that these two men accidentally bumped into a bully on the road when they were selling goods and were almost beaten to death by the bully.
I happened to see them when I came back from my grandmother's house, so I rescued them.
On the morning our house was ransacked, we happened to meet them on the way to the prison.
Unexpectedly, when I was leaving the city, they followed me and asked someone to secretly deliver a note to me.
They said that once we were out for two days, a little further away from the capital, if we needed anything, they would send it to us, so we shouldn't worry!"
As she spoke, Pei Xinlan took out a crumpled piece of paper from her bosom.
She had prepared this in advance. In order to make it look more realistic, she had kept this piece of paper with her for the past two days!
The Pei family members passed the note around and read it. Old Madam Pei said, "They remember our kindness, so we can't be ungrateful.
We have silver in our hands, so if we take something from someone, we should give it back to them.
It’s not easy for the young couple, they have to endure a lot of hardships along the way. You must remember this kindness!
After all, we didn't really help them.
They are just thinking of Lan'er's little help, we can't let them down!
Our family is in this situation now, and it’s too far-fetched to think about repaying them.
But if you have the chance in the future, you must not forget this matter!"
