Mo Yunwen smiled slightly, still very respectful to his future father-in-law, but not submissive.
"Second Master has a good eye. I am serious about Xiushui."
Mr. Fang's face turned red with anger.
How dare this evil creature actually covet his daughter?
"Mo Yunwen, do you think that our Fang family has fallen on hard times and has been sent to the border, so you have a chance? Are you worthy of her?"
Mo Yunwen was not angry at all and nodded seriously.
"Yes, I wasn't worthy of you before, and I'm still not worthy of you now. But, how could you have known that I would always be like this?
Just because I wasn’t worthy of you before and now doesn’t mean I won’t be worthy of you in the future.”
Looking at this unyielding young man, Mr. Fang was stunned.
Although he has always been a civil servant and only records events in front of the palace, he still has a high status in the capital.
Many people respected him in order to get some news about the emperor.
After years of experience in the officialdom, many people still feel slightly inferior to him. But this black slave remained calm and made such a solemn promise!
To be honest, Mr. Fang does have some appreciation for it.
He also knew that the current situation was different from before, but he had never thought of letting them marry a former slave.
If this young man is really ambitious and can protect his children...it's actually not impossible.
But Mr. Fang denied it in an instant.
No matter how ambitious you are, you are just a servant.
Even after they have completed their service, this man will still be a slave, and her daughter will at least be a commoner.
Thinking of this, Mr. Fang snorted coldly and didn't say anything else.
Mo Yunwen secretly breathed a sigh of relief. If he wanted to win his beloved wife, he really had to work hard.
But he was determined.
Xiushui has always been curious about what that person said, that salt can be obtained if there is an opportunity, but she doesn't know whether it is true.
According to the escort officer, they would have to walk on the mountain path for three days, and they would not be able to stay in the city or buy anything else during those three days.
This means that they cannot buy anything else.
Necessities like salt couldn't compensate them at all. The officials also said that during the three-day journey, each person only had one vegetable steamed bun per day.
Walking such a long distance and eating only a vegetable steamed bun a day is unbearable even for a middle-aged man, let alone the elderly and children.
Taking a deep breath, Xiushui tightened the things on her back again. Now, even a little more weight would feel so heavy.
But without these things, their journey of exile would be much more difficult.
Suddenly, she felt a lightness on her back. She looked up and saw a man striding forward. Xiushui wanted to grab him.
"Save some strength, Yanhong and Erye both need your care."
Turning around to look at her brother who was almost exhausted from walking, and her father in shackles, Xiushui's eyes turned red.
My father was beaten by the police when he was in prison.
When I was on the road, I was shackled every day, and my feet and neck were rubbed so hard that blisters formed.
And my younger brother, the pampered young man, now wants to walk as soon as he opens his eyes.
She went over, holding her brother's hand and supporting her father, and the father and daughter gritted their teeth and moved forward.
Mr. Fang's body and face were covered in cold sweat. He didn't know if he could hold on, but he understood one thing: no matter how difficult it was, he had to move forward.
Otherwise, his young son would lose his father after losing his mother.
In that place of exile, if it weren't for him, the man of the family, to support them, the couple would have had a miserable life.
"Dad, I can finally rest."
When Mr. Fang heard that he could rest, he sat down on the ground.
Mo Yunwen, who had been running around looking for food since they set out, now stuffed a bamboo tube of water into their hands.
"Drink this and eat these sour dates. Eating these while walking is good for your health."
Yan Hong looked at the large bunch of sour dates he had picked, and was surprised and delighted. "Brother Yunwen, you actually found this kind of sour dates."
"Well, there are still a lot ahead. I'll pick some more later. We can eat a few every day while walking on the road. We need to replenish salt when walking, and it's better to replenish it with acidic fruits like this. If there are no sour fruits, you can also pick some of this wood sorrel to replenish acid..."
Yanhong looked at Mo Yunwen with admiration, and Xiushui also stared at the man who kept explaining and teaching them how to recognize plants and various fruits.
This person is really knowledgeable and capable.
Also, even when he's sweating while explaining something, I still think he's handsome. Even when he's tanned, I still think his tan has a certain charm. What the hell is that?
Shaking her head, Xiushui felt that Fang Hongmei might be right, and she seemed to be really abnormal.
She thought she was being serious with her face tense, but she didn't know that in Mo Yunwen's eyes, she was so cute. He just thought, how could Xiao Xiushui be so cute.
Whether it's her now or the one in my memory, these movements are exactly the same.
The same duplicity, the same cuteness...
Xiushui's eyes accidentally met his. Receiving his smiling eyes, her pretty face blushed, and then she glared at him fiercely.
This pervert! I'm on my way to exile, why is he still looking at me like this? Could it be that he really has some romantic feelings for me?
There was a long way to go. Although she was picking grass and listening to Li Jing chattering, her mind was in a mess.
"Miss, I just saw Mian'er flirting with that escort officer. Ugh, the people in Concubine Ru's family are really shameless.
The old one hooked up with one, and the young one is going to seduce another. Going back, do you think the third girl will…"
