Hearing Shen Fanghui's words, Yue'e could only nod her head.

However, it was obvious that Shen Fanghui thought all of this was too good.

At this moment, Jixiang has not even arrived in Tanzhou. In fact, she has not even been able to get out of Yunzhou. The reason for all this is naturally that not long after, the whole city suddenly came under martial law, and the entire Yunzhou City could only enter. Not out.

Among them, the situation encountered by men was the most serious. Some people were even arrested because they looked like someone in a certain portrait, and they were tortured severely, either to death or to mutilation.

Under such a high-pressure policy, Jixiang could not even leave Yunzhou, let alone Tanzhou.

So now she can only live in the inn with Li Yunzhen.

While living in the inn, they were harassed by the officers and soldiers almost three times a day.

Fortunately, they were only searching for something, and their search for women would be easier, so now they can live in the inn without being arrested. .

After that, Jixiang would sometimes go out, and she soon discovered that the person these officers and soldiers were searching seemed to be Li Yunlan, Li Yunzhen's father. Besides Li Yunlan, there were two other people at the moment. Although she didn't know them, she thought they were also separated from Li Yunlan. Regardless of the relationship, the only thing she was glad about at the moment was that they did not involve any young children, and Li Yunzhen was not among the people they investigated.

But even so, Jixiang is still very careful. In addition to letting Li Yunzhen rarely go out, she will also wear a veil for Li Yunzhen when she goes out.

Fortunately, the child was young and no one suspected it.

As for the wanted portrait on the wall, Ji Xiang naturally did not hide it from Li Yunzhen. She just told Li Yunzhen not to worry or be afraid. Since they are still issuing a wanted order, it proves that his father has not been caught yet.

Li Yunzhen was quite calm. Although she was worried about her father, she never showed it in front of Ji Xiang.

Naturally, she became even more calm in front of outsiders.

The two of them hid in the inn for two or three days, and the large-scale manhunt eased as complaints arose inside and outside the city.

At least the initial ban on leaving the city was changed to the requirement that people could leave the city only if there were government roads to guide them.

Jixiang also thought about it and wanted to get the road guide and leave.

However, in order for the government to provide guidance, in addition to explaining where she was going and what she was doing, she also had to have her original household registration certificate.

Although she signed the Zhu family's deed of sale, her household registration certificate was not moved, and her household registration certificate was still kept with her original family.

So this also shows that if she still wants to leave Yunzhou, she must go to her original home to get her household registration certificate.

Just thinking about her original family, Ji Xiang couldn't help but sigh again and again. Her big family was simply a blood-sucking locust. Even the ants have to be drained of every drop of blood. If she goes back to find them now, they will be unhappy. I'm afraid that even if she gives them three points, they can still take the opportunity to open a dyeing workshop. Therefore, she In fact, I don’t want to go back at all.

But if he didn't go back, would he still bother the eldest lady and young master with this little thing? They are currently busy with their own marriages, and they already have endless things to do. It would be too much to go too far if they continue to cause trouble for such a trivial matter at this time.

Also because he didn't want to trouble Shen Fanghui and Zhu Zanxun, Jixiang thought about it and finally decided to go home.

Anyway, if she just goes back, those people can't do anything to her? Moreover, her mother just wanted money. After giving her a few taels of silver to send her off, it should be no problem to sever ties with her.

Thinking of this, Jixiang immediately started taking action.

She only handed over fifty taels of silver to Jixiang first, and then took only another ten taels of silver in her hand. This was the highest price she could give her mother.

Thinking of this, Ji Xiangdang didn't want to delay any longer, so she just walked directly to her home in Yunyong Lane.

Considering that she also has a sister-in-law, she also heard people say that after their parents sold her, she

She also married her sister-in-law, but the whole family bullied her sister-in-law. When they heard that she was pregnant, they only let her sister-in-law do a lot of work.

Although the sister-in-law got married with the money from selling her, Shen Fanghui still had some sympathy for her sister-in-law. After all, she couldn't make the decision for herself.

Moreover, she has also been the daughter of her own parents. As a daughter, she knows best what kind of virtue their parents are, so her sister-in-law will probably not live a good life when she gets married, and may even live a worse life than herself.

Thinking of this, before going back, in addition to buying some things for her parents, she only bought some pastries and a few children's clothes for her sister-in-law.

She carried other things directly outside, but she hid the cakes and more than ten copper coins in her clothes.

After making these arrangements, she just returned to her home in Yunyong Lane.

She had barely entered the house before she heard her mother yelling and scolding, and the person being scolded was naturally her sister-in-law. Just hearing it, she felt that her sister-in-law was really pitiful, after all, she had been tortured like that before.

Thinking of this, she immediately patted the door hard and said loudly, "Mother! Mother! I'm back to see you!"

Hearing this voice, the woman in the room also paused. Then when she realized who it was, a light flashed across the woman's face.

When she thought about how she was almost dragged into repaying a debt a few days ago, she couldn't help but cursed, "You damn girl, you still have the nerve to come back! Who is your mother? You damn girl, didn't you say that you won't do anything from now on?" Do you recognize our family? What do you want to do now that Baba has come back to death?"

However, although the woman cursed a lot, she acted quickly. She had not forgotten the instructions given to her by Second Young Master Zhu a few days ago.

Even if she doesn't exchange her daughter for reward, she can't let this woman be killed by her.

Thinking of this, the woman only walked a few steps faster.

Then she just opened the door.

She was about to curse, but when she saw Ji Xiang carrying a large bag, her curse words were stuck in her throat.

She just said, "You still know how to come back."

After saying this, before Jixiang could speak, she had already grabbed the thing in Jixiang's hand.

Although Jixiang thought her mother was vulgar, she knew that her mother had always been like this, so she didn't bother to care about it. Jixiang just smiled and said, "Mom, there is a big floral skirt for you, and a new pair of pants for daddy." Yes, big brother also has new clothes..."

Hearing Ji Xiang talk about this, the expression on the woman's face relaxed a little.

She couldn't wait to open it and look at the clothes inside. She took them out one by one and said one by one, "This fabric feels comfortable and the clothes look good. You still care about us. You have some conscience." "

However, she soon touched another piece of pink loose clothing worn by a young woman, and she was immediately ready to try it on.

Jixiang quickly reminded in a low voice, "Mom, this is for my sister-in-law."

Hearing this, the woman's face tightened, "You know how to waste money every day, why is your sister-in-law wearing such fancy clothes when she is pregnant with a child?"

Hearing this, Ji Xiang felt uncomfortable in her heart, but she thought that she came here to get the household registration certificate. As long as she got the household registration certificate, she would have nothing to do with this family anymore.

So she forcibly endured this unpleasant feeling. At the moment, she just whispered to her mother, "My sister-in-law's clothes are so torn, so what's the point of buying her one? Mom, if you like me next time I’ll buy it for you again.”

After hearing Ji Xiang's words, the expression on the woman's face softened a little or two.

She then reluctantly said to the young woman who was scrubbing dirty clothes, "Come here first."

Looking at the mountains of clothes that couldn't be washed, Jixiang knew that it must be his mother who took over the laundry work outside and asked his sister-in-law to do it.

And I guess my sister-in-law has washed so many clothes and still has some clothes in her hands.

Can't get a penny.

After all, she was treated like this before, and even though she earned laundry money, she still had to be scolded by her mother for losing money.

Thinking of this and seeing the haggard face of the young woman, Ji Xiang couldn't help but feel suffocated.

The young woman followed her mother-in-law's instructions and slowly walked over.

Although it was the first time for Ji Xiang to see her, she knew at a glance that the woman who came to her with a big belly must be her sister-in-law.

"Hello, sister-in-law. My name is Jixiang." Jixiang took the initiative to greet the young woman.

The woman just smiled timidly.

Jixiang then handed a pink dress to the woman, "Sister-in-law. This is the dress I bought for you. Can you see if it fits you?"

When she saw the pink skirt, the young woman's eyes clearly flashed with surprise.

But soon she waved her hands timidly and said, "I can't have this."

But Jixiang said affectionately, "Sister-in-law, why can't I have it? Isn't it because my sister-in-law dislikes the clothes I picked because they don't look good?"

Upon hearing Ji Xiang's words, the sister-in-law immediately waved her hands and said, "I didn't mean that! This dress is very beautiful."

After Jixiang heard this, he immediately smiled and said, "Okay, sister-in-law, since you don't mean this, just take over my clothes. This is my first time seeing you, and I don't know what you like."

After hearing the auspicious words, the young woman smiled again. She had to admit that she liked this sister-in-law. At least in her husband's family, she was the only one who showed kindness to her.

It's just a pity.

And she didn't think there would be a chance of wearing this dress on herself.

Her heart was gloomy, so she just continued to wave her hands and said, "It's a waste to wear clothes on me. If grandma likes these clothes, let me wear them."
