Chapter 28: Settled

After returning to the inn, Qing Huan and the others packed up their things in their room. Yuan Chao was also there, and reported the situation to Qing Huan, only to hear him say: "Madame's jade bracelet was exchanged for fifty taels of silver." ”

Qing Huan was a little surprised, although she didn't know the goods, but the things her mother gave were not worth fifty taels. Yuan Chao saw her doubts, and then said: "Only this family can pay fifty taels, saying that this jade bracelet is too good, maybe it is not easy to sell, and many families don't want it." ”

This place is not as good as Chaocheng, and fifty taels is also very good. Although it was a thought left by my mother, I had to solve the urgent need at hand. And this morning they went out to buy something, and there were more than a tael of silver left.

Qing Huan didn't know what the current prices were, so she asked, "How long will this money last?" ”

Yuan Chao may have silently calculated in his heart, "In the future, most of them will be self-sufficient, so this money will be enough for us for about ten years." ”

After hearing this time, Qing Huan was shocked. Ten years, fifty taels. The book is really good, between a medium family of three, the annual cost is only ten taels of silver.

Fifty taels of them save a little, maybe it can really be used for ten years. But, when I think about it, ten years. Do you really want to stay in this place for the rest of your life?

Thinking like this, Qing Huan was a little stunned. With her current relationship with Li Yan, can she stay? If you're not here, where can you go?

He began to think about it crankily, and Ah Gu and Yuan Chao seemed to be unaware, silently packing up their things beside them, and both of them went out.

Li Yan has been resting all day, and he has been hard enough during this time. Qing Huan can still ride in a carriage or ride a horse, while he can only be a prisoner car, and in the end he walks completely. Qing Huan didn't go over to see him, let him have a good rest.

After about two or three days, a man dressed as a farmer came to the inn to find Yuan Chao, and they were about to set off.

The meals in the past few days were all brought in by Yuan Chao, so Qing Huan didn't see Li Yan again until this day. His injuries didn't seem to be healing, and he looked very haggard.

Qing Huan didn't go up to ask, and didn't even look at him again after taking a look. If you don't care, you don't mess up, and now she is more and more ruthless.

The old farmer led them out of town and into more remote places.

Li Yan was far behind, supported by Yuan Chao. Agu, on the other hand, asked the old farmer about the situation. It turned out that the place they were designated was originally a deserted place, but Yuan Chao bribed the official master and assigned them a corner close to the village. This old farmer is from that village.

Agu learned that there were only a dozen families in this small village, and it was backed by a mountain peak.

And where they were going to live was a dilapidated thatched hut that had been left behind. I walked around like this, and in the middle of the afternoon, I finally saw the small village.

Qing Huan and Ah Gu could barely keep up with the pace of the old peasants, while Li Yan and Yuan Chao were already far behind. Qing Huan didn't look back all the way, but Ah Gu often looked back, and then said to Qing Huan: "Madam, the son seems to be a little seriously injured." ”

"Yuan Chao is taking care of it."

"Is Madame really dead set on Childe?"

This sentence asked Qing Huan, and she didn't know how to answer, because she didn't know her heart.

Agu explained, "I don't think Madame cares about Childe as much as she used to. “

Qing Huan smiled reluctantly, "What's the use of caring, others have never received affection." “

Agu didn't say anything more, and after a while, he went around several small hills before finally reaching the village. The old peasant led them to the place where they were to stay, and walked to the dilapidated house.

Originally, he was mentally prepared at the beginning, but when he really saw it, Qing Huan still chuckled in his heart.

None of the four walls were intact, there were air leaks everywhere, one had collapsed, and most of the thatch on the roof had fallen off. There were no windows or doors, just an empty frame.

Inside the room, there was only a broken stove and a bed that looked like it was about to fall apart. In such a house, there will be four of them living tonight. Qing Huan ran out of ideas for a while.

After the old farmer took it to the place, he left, and Agu took out a lot of money to thank him, which surprised the old farmer.

Then he kindly said: "If you want to repair the house, just come to me, there are a few people in the village who can help." ”

After the old farmer left, Qing Huan stood stunned, not knowing what to do.

The backbone of the main heart is behind, and when they come, they will make a decision. At this time, Agu was not idle, and began to clean up the house, put away the things he had brought, and looked around to check the situation of the house.

After a long time, Yuan Chao took Li Yan to the front of the house. When they saw the situation in the house, their performance was much calmer, and they didn't even frown.

Yuan Chao helped Li Yan to the bed and asked him to sit for a while. Qing Huan followed into the house, waiting for them to come up with an idea.

Yuan Chao also looked around, came back and said, "I have to find someone to repair the house today, otherwise I won't be able to live in it." Let's go to the village tonight and spend the night. ”

Li Yan nodded in agreement. When they entered the house just now, Qing Huan looked at him as if he had injured his leg. So I mustered up the courage to ask, "How did you hurt your leg?" ”

Yuan Chao glanced at her and went out, while Li Yan was silent.

Qing Huan felt that he had talked too much, and he was about to walk out when he raised his feet. I heard Li Yan say lightly: "I fell when I went to the mountains to collect medicine." ”

Qing Huan didn't stop because of these words, and still walked out of the house.

After thinking about it carefully, I remembered that I was sick before, and they went up the mountain to collect medicine in the dark. Did you get hurt at that time?

Thinking of this, she walked in again and asked him a little angrily, "Hurt for so long?" Why don't you say it? At that time, I could have recuperated in the village for two days, why didn't you say? “

"I'm just a sinner."

A simple sentence, but full of sadness and helplessness. Qing Huan felt a little uncomfortable when she heard this, walked closer, and said softly: "I'll take a look, is it serious?" “

Li Yan shook his head and didn't let her look at it. At this time, it was almost dark, and after walking for nearly a day, everyone was hungry, so Agu took out the dry food he had bought, and said, "Madam, son, I can only make do with it." There's no way to make a fire to cook here. “

Seeing this situation in the house, everyone knew it.

No one complains, just eat something to fill their stomachs.

When it was dark, Yuan Chao came back and said, "We have found two families who are willing to accept us tonight, and someone will come to repair the house early tomorrow morning." "Routine debriefing.

Li Yan had just finished eating and said, "I'm tired." Ah Gu also took some dry food and handed it to Yuan Chao, and after he finished eating it indiscriminately, he said, "Mrs. Gongzi, let's hurry over." “

After saying that, he was going to help Li Yan, he waved his hand, "Take Mrs. over first." “

Yuan Chao never resisted his orders, and very obediently picked up the baggage prepared by Agu and took them out of the door.
