Xu Jingluo clenched his fists with confidence, and bought a few meat buns in the mall as breakfast for three people, and then reluctantly came out of the carry-on space.

The gate of the yard was locked, and he strode towards the mule cart.

"Runtian, Yi Bao, you two hold on to the handrails, and my mother will start to catch the car now."

"Okay, we got it."

The well-behaved Runtian and Yi Bao responded in unison, grabbing the crossbar with one hand and the futon under the buttocks with the other, seeing Xu Jingluo whipping the car unhurriedly, and drove straight to the gate of the village.

As soon as he drove a short distance, he saw Qian Yulan walking towards him.

"Jingluo, are you here? I was about to call you, but in a moment I was behind our mule cart, and the big guy was soon on his way. ”

"Okay!" Xu Jingluo hurriedly added a few whips, drove the car closer, and closely followed Qian Yulan and Feng Yongsheng's mule cart.

In a short time, the mule carts moved forward slowly, and everyone was silent and silent.

Embarking on the unknown road of escape, everyone is very nervous, sighing one after another, which sounds moving.

Xu Jingluo was originally very positive and sunny in real life, but now that she feels the bitterness of wandering, she can't help but feel sad.

"Runtian, Yi Bao, the road is long, if you haven't woken up yet, lie down and continue to sleep."

Xu Jingluo exhaled a breath of turbidity, forced himself to stabilize his mood, and turned his head to Runtian and Yi Bao.

"Mmmm, mother, we know."

The two siblings rubbed their sleepy eyes, lay down on the mattress as they said, and soon fell into a deep sleep.

After about a quarter of an hour's journey, the sound of conversation gradually sounded in the procession, and the original dull atmosphere was broken, and the nervous expressions of everyone eased a lot.

"It is said that Emperor Qiande of the Western Wei Kingdom is virtuous and virtuous, and he is sympathetic to the people, why don't we flee to the Western Wei Kingdom for refuge?"

"Western Wei Kingdom? Forget it! In the territory of the Western Wei Dynasty, it is cold all year round, it is difficult to see the spring sun, according to me, it is better to go all the way to the east, it is rumored that the Eastern Jin Dynasty is rich in products, warm in winter and cool in summer, and the climate is mild, which is the most suitable for our Southern Zhou people to live. ”

"We were born in the Southern Zhou Dynasty, why do we want to be the people of the Western Wei and Eastern Jin Kingdoms? The best way is to live in seclusion in the mountains and forests, and return to Zhuangzi after this battle. ”

"You're naïve, where do we have any chance to go back to the village? After the battle is over, the Southern Zhou Dynasty has almost been destroyed, and this Zhuangzi of ours may become the camp of the Northern Liang soldiers! ”

The more they talked, the more frustrated they became, so they simply shut up, drove the car or lay down and continued to sleep for a while.

The road ahead is vast, and no one dares to be sure whether the Western Wei and Eastern Jin dynasties are willing to accept the people of the Southern Zhou Dynasty.

After a while, Runtian and Yi Bao woke up slowly, Xu Jingluo was engrossed in driving the mule cart, and suddenly heard an urgent shout not far away.

"Girl, girl!"

Xu Jingluo turned his head to look and found that in the reeds on the side of the road, there was an unkempt purple-clothed girl, waving and shouting at her, while galloping over.

Xu Jingluo hurriedly reined in the bridle, stopped the mule cart, and took a closer look, recognizing her as Cuiying, the personal maid who had been sold by the original owner before.

Seeing Xu Jingluo, Cui Ying cried hysterically, "Girl, the maid has finally found you......"

Since she was a child, Cui Ying has been waiting with the four girls, who ruthlessly sell her to a rough man in the village, racking their brains to plan how to escape.

Yesterday evening, she witnessed many people in Zhuangzi going to the market to buy grain, and after inquiring, she realized that Beiliang was about to invade the place, and they planned to store enough grain and escape. In addition, the four girls have also recovered as before.

So, Cui Ying took advantage of the fact that the man who bought her was asleep, and secretly ran to Zhuangzi, and when she saw that the village was empty, she hurriedly caught up with the team from the reeds.

Fortunately, as soon as she got out of the reeds, she saw the four girls driving by.

Xu Jingluo looked at Cui Ying for a moment, moved by her loyalty, and secretly blamed the original owner for being too selfish and ignorant, and actually sold the best maid in the world to him!

It has been seven years since Xu Jingluo was expelled from Beizhuang, and the family has not visited her in the village half a time, and Cuiying has taken care of her and her two children carefully from beginning to end.

"Cuiying, I'm sorry, I blame you for making you suffer, I really regret it!" Xu Jingluo took Cuiying's calloused hand, and said with guilt and self-blame.

"Don't say that, girl."

Cui Ying was stunned for a moment, then shook her head violently, and said in a choked voice: "It doesn't matter if the maid is dead, it's just that the maid is afraid that if the maid is not there, the girl, Runtian, Yi Bao, what should you do?" ”

Xu Jingluo heard the tears in the corners of his eyes, patted the back of her hand gently, and said softly: "Cuiying, in front of me, don't call your maidservant and son, from today onwards, I will recognize you as my sister." Wouldn't it be better for you and me to be sisters from now on? ”

Cui Ying was shocked when she heard this, "Servant, how can you be a maid, how can you be called a girl's sister?" ＂

"The Southern Zhou Dynasty will be destroyed, besides, I am not the fourth girl of the Zhenyuan General's Mansion for a long time, and you and I are not the master and servant, Cuiying, listen to me, don't shirk again."

Xu Jingluo paused for a moment, and then ordered: "Later, you will catch a car for me, and I want to go to the general's mansion for a while." ”

Cui Ying pursed her lips when she heard this, and said worriedly: "We still don't know what the situation of the lady is now, and whether they are ready to flee?" If the lord deliberately conceals it, he will run away without taking his wife......"

Obviously, Cui Ying and Xu Jingluo thought of going together.

Xu Jingluo pondered for a moment, looked at Cui Ying and said, "You're right, I think so too, if my mother and younger siblings are still in the house, I will lead them to escape." Okay, you don't have to worry about them, but you, your face and hands are covered with mud, and there are other clothes and a few buckets of water prepared in the car, so quickly wash them and change your clothes. ”

"Mm-hmm, girl, I'll go."

Although Cuiying has indeed replaced the original "maid" with "me", the girl's honorific title has not been changed, and she doesn't want to change her words again.

I still remember when she was nine years old, her parents died, she curled up in a corner of the street begging, if the four girls hadn't bought her back to the house, she would have starved to death on the street.

During the days when she moved to Beizhuang, the fourth girl didn't let her suffer too much, even if the fourth girl sold her to others for money for treatment a while ago, but the girl really had no choice but to do it, and she never hated the girl in her heart.

Xu Jingluo continued to drive forward smoothly, Cui Ying went to the car to get a new set of clothes, poured some water, covered it with a cloth curtain, simply scrubbed her body, and then changed into new clothes.

Gradually, the dawn was in full bloom, and the sky was completely bright.
