In the house, Wu Yue and Fang Huiwen coaxed Yuan Ruo with Yuan Li and Yuan Yi.
Outside the house, Wu Gui carefully applied medicine to Ansheng's arm while chatting with Zhou Yunshu.
Li Jialan looked at Xixi, who had been nestling in Zhou Yunshu's arms, and was afraid that she would tire the pregnant Zhou Yunshu, so she said: "Xixi, come to grandma, grandma will hold her."
Xixi shook her head, turned around and hugged Zhou Yunshu's arm.
But she heard from Yuan Ruo that the strange brother in front of her liked to steal other people's mothers, and she didn't want her mother to be snatched away by him.
Zhou Yunshu kissed her daughter's little face and said to Li Jialan, who looked worried: "Mom, everything is fine. Didn't Grandpa Xue check my pulse just now? I'm in good health."
Li Jialan also knew that Xixi missed Zhou Yunshu very much in the past few days. She didn't force her anymore and just told Xixi: "Don't move around in your...father's arms."
Li Jialan changed her words in time and did not say the words "your mother".
Zhou Yunshu smiled, looked at Wu Gui opposite, who was bandaging Ansheng with a frown, and said, "Don't be anxious. Since Grandpa Xue said that Ansheng is suffering from a heart disease, he can't force it."
Yes, after Mr. Xue took Zhou Yunshu's pulse, he also took Ansheng's pulse and made a diagnosis at Wu Gui's request.
The diagnosis was that Ansheng was in good health. The reason why he remained silent was because of inner rejection, or a kind of self-protection aphasia.
In this case, we can only take it slowly. Maybe one day when he wants to say it, he will speak it himself.
Wu Gui hugged An Sheng's shoulders and sighed. What she was most worried about now was not this, but the relationship between An Sheng and Yuan Ruo.
Wu Gui also felt distressed when Yuan Ruo cried, but she brought Ansheng to him, and she couldn't leave Ansheng alone.
How to ease the relationship between the two?
Li Jialan looked at the melancholy on Wu Gui's face, glanced at the window behind him and said comfortingly: "It's because Yuan Ruo is not familiar with her, just wait until they become familiar with her."
Wu Gui thought about what Yuan Ruo said to her just now: She no longer likes her mother. She nodded with a wry smile and said, "I hope so."
Zhou Yunshu looked at An Sheng, who was sitting silently next to Wu Gui, and changed the subject: "Mom, what did Uncle Du say when you left the team?"
"He didn't have time to pay attention to us at the time."
Li Jialan recalled the situation at that time and said to Zhou Yunshu: "Two days after we separated from you, we met another group of refugees. In fact, we can't call them refugees. It feels more like villagers from the surrounding area who want to rob the road."
"They saw that although there were many people in our team, most of them were old, weak, women and children, so they had other ideas, especially since our team had so much food and water."
"We had been following the team at that time. When we saw something happened in front of us, Chunque and Huzi immediately turned around and took us away. We met Shopkeeper Liang on the road."
Zhou Yunshu frowned and said, "Where are the people Wei Zhong left behind?"
Li Jialan knew what Zhou Yunshu was worried about and said, "I am all stunned by Mr. Xue."
Zhou Yunshu nodded reassuringly, "We can't stay here for long. After breakfast, let's prepare some more dry food and leave as soon as possible."
"Yunjia is waiting for us in Fucheng. Du Mazi, Yan Shilei and I also made an appointment to meet outside Fucheng."
Li Jialan asked worriedly: "Will Wei Zhong and the others also go to Fucheng? What if they meet then?"
Zhou Yunshu held Xixi's soft little hand and whispered when seeing no one around: "I once revealed to Qingfeng in front of Wei Zhong that I wanted to rush to Nanzhou as soon as possible so that I could contact my grandmother's retainers to find her traces. , and went to the north to collect the bones of my grandfather and father."
"So when Wei Zhong finds out that I'm missing, he will probably lead people directly to Nanzhou."
However, Zhou Yunshu also made other preparations, "Of course we don't rule out that Wei Zhong will take people to Fucheng, so we have to make two preparations."
Zhou Yunshu decided to change into women's clothing on the road and let Wu Gui, who was still dressed in men's clothing, be her apparent husband to cover up for them.
And their new identities are the Wu family who came south from Anshan County to join their in-laws.
Zhou Yunshu's identity had been decided by the people in the team.
Wu Gui is the eldest son of the Wu family, Zhou Yunshu is her wife, Ansheng is their eldest son, Yuanruo and Xixi are their twins, and Zhou Yunshu is pregnant with two more.
Mr. Xue plays the grandfather of the two, Wu Yue is Wu Gui's mother, and Li Jialan is still Zhou Yunshu's mother. She is just a relative who took her daughter-in-law Fang Huiwen and her youngest son Feng Xujie to the Wu family. Yuan Li and Yuan Yi are still the same. He is Fang Huiwen's child.
The remaining Chun Que is still Zhou Yunshu's personal maid, Liang Laosan and Hu Zi are the hired guards, and so is Luo Xiaoshan. Only Uncle He is spared.
When Uncle He saw Huzi and the others coming out of the main room with stiff faces, a trace of doubt flashed in his eyes. But when he walked into the main room and saw Zhou Yunshu, dressed in women's clothing, his expression was as if he had been struck by lightning.
She turned out to be a woman.
"Uncle He, are you coming over?"
Uncle He looked at Zhou Yunshu's face and silently took a deep breath. He suppressed the depression in his chest and said, "With you, I must have an identity. I want to be the accountant of the Wu family."
"good."
Two carriages, three mule carts and two mules were all their means of transportation.
When leaving, Zhou Yunshu left fifty taels of gold to the host family.
She dared to give so much because Li Jialan lived a good life while staying at their house for a few days, and they were old acquaintances with Luo Xiaoshan, Yan Shilei and others. If Luo Xiaoshan hadn't brought people here, in today's world, they would There is no way he would leave so many strangers in his home.
So these fifty taels are what they deserve.
After leaving this small mountain village, Zhou Yunshu and his party never stopped along the way except for stopping to rest at night.
Fortunately, after crossing the boundary of Wolong Mountain, Luzhou was not as chaotic as before. Otherwise, even if they now have four or five burly men in the team, they still cannot stop others from coveting them.
After three days of driving, when they were about to reach the boundary of Fucheng, there were finally more pedestrians on the road, and there was even a tea shop for people to rest on the roadside.
It happened to be noon at this time, and Zhou Yunshu and his party decided to have lunch here, inquire about some news, and then rush to Fucheng in one go.
There are many tourists taking a rest in the tea shop. In addition to tea for sale, there are also tea eggs and pickles made by the shop itself.
Mr. Xue sat down at the square table. After Wu Yue and Li Jialan sat down with the children, they lost their seats.
Li Jialan wanted to give up her seat to Zhou Yunshu, but Zhou Yunshu held her shoulders and refused. She stood on the side wearing a curtain hat and listened carefully to the gossip of the passengers next to her.
The people at the table closest to them should be traders coming and going, and at their feet were the goods they were going to take to Fucheng.
"Fortunately, I came in time, otherwise I would have missed Princess Yuyang's birthday."
"Haha, what does Princess Yuyang's birthday have to do with us ordinary people? Is it possible that she can invite us to Yang's house as guests?"
"I really can't say for sure. Who doesn't know that Princess Yuyang appreciates strange people and strangers the most? Maybe if I use my special skills, I can really become Princess Yuyang's guest."
After the man finished speaking, there was laughter all around.
"Better look at your Japanese melon face!" The man sitting in the upper left corner, wearing silk clothes, said disdainfully: "Who doesn't know that Princess Yuyang almost fell out with her family back then because she wanted to marry Master Yang."
"Princess Yuyang and Mr. Yang can be said to be a match made in heaven..."
Zhou Yunshu was enjoying listening to the gossip, but then she heard Uncle He next to him let out a mocking "ha" after the man said the words "a match made in heaven".
