The seeds have been flying for a while. This is the upgrade task she set for herself every day. The space has not been sorted out yet, and she is not in a hurry to upgrade. The progress bar has reached 79%. In one day, she will be able to upgrade to the third level space!

She is too busy. On the way to exile, she couldn't stay in space for too long. There were still so many treasures to sort out. "When I get to the wilderness, I want to buy servants to serve me and clean my vases!"

With this beautiful wish in mind, Su Niyue slept until dawn.

"Sister Su!" Sanhu came to town to find her.

"Sanhu, if I tell your father that I want to buy a bullock cart and take my husband with me, do you think your father will agree?"

"Oxcart!" Sanhu looked confused. "Try it! Let me tell you!"

"No, I'll tell it myself, just wait for me!" Su Niyue felt that this kind of thing couldn't be done just by relying on connections, but also needed money!

Su Niyue felt no distress when she felt a one hundred tael silver note in her arms. As the saying goes, if you can't let go of your children, you can't trap the wolf; if you can't let go of the money, you can't ride on the bullock cart.

"Master Liu, please take a step to speak!"

When Liu Quan saw Su Niyue smiling at him, his head was buzzing for some reason!

"Miss Nangong, what's the matter?"

"Master Liu, I want to buy a bullock cart. What do you think..." Before he could finish his words, the banknote was already stuffed into Liu Quan's hand. Liu Quan saw that it was one hundred taels and scratched his head: "This It’s hard to say!”

"Just say that the ox cart belongs to your escort team and I will rent it. When my husband is ready, the ox cart will be yours!"

"make a deal!"

"okay!"

As the carriage driven by Sanhu and Huzi entered the city, Su Niyue's eyes lit up a bit. She loved the lively atmosphere of the ancient market so much.

"Sanhu, can I go shopping alone?"

"Okay, let's meet at the city gate in an hour!" Sanhu did not hesitate.

"Okay!" Su Niyue turned and left.

"Sanhu, aren't you afraid that she will run away?" Huzi wanted to call Su Niyue but it was too late.

"She won't run away. If she runs away, it will be considered as repaying her life-saving grace!"

"But you will be punished!"

"It's not like no one died during her exile! Don't worry, I believe she will come back!"

Su Niyue found an alley and let the bullock cart out when no one was around. She was not very good at driving the bullock cart, but fortunately the cow was a good cow and very obedient.

Passing by a steamed bun shop: “Boss, what’s the stuffing in your steamed buns?”

The bosses are a middle-aged couple, and the man looks like a simple and honest person: "Two kinds of stuffing, pork and vegetable stuffing! The meat stuff costs two cents a piece, and the vegetarian stuff costs a penny each!"

"I want three hundred meat ones. When can they be steamed?"

"Girl, we're setting up a banquet!"

"Yeah! My boss is treating me to a treat!" Su Niyue didn't know the local customs, so she made a nonsense statement.

"Quick, I'll steam it while I'm wrapping it. It'll only take half an hour!"

"Okay!" Su Niyue paid the deposit and went to order 300 steamed buns and 300 meat pies. She also stocked up on sauced meat and roasted chicken. Anyway, the space kept them fresh.

I bought a bunch of oilcloth raincoats, leaving one on the oxcart and throwing the others into the empty space.

Several shops collected a thousand kilograms of charcoal, and they scoured the market again. She went back to pick up the buns and meat pies that she had ordered, and then walked to the city gate. As soon as she arrived, she saw San Hu and two people driving a carriage out. To the city.

Back at the inn, when Yun Qi heard that Su Niyue had bought a bullock cart, his eyes sparkled with joy, and the old lady smiled from ear to ear. She no longer had to walk on her feet, and her days were getting more and more promising.

"Yunqi, let's go and check the oxcart with my sister-in-law to see if there is anything that needs reinforcement."

"Okay!" In these few days of exile, for the first time, he saw the joy that belonged to Yunqi's age.

Even the old lady went to watch the bullock cart.

The two men inspected the cart, reinforced the shed, and added a layer of tarpaulin over the shed.

"Sister-in-law, why do you need oil cloth!" Nangong Yunran was holding the oil cloth to help.

"After a severe drought, there will be a severe flood. Looking at the weather, it is getting more and more boring. There might be a heavy rain!"

The old lady looked at the sky and nodded: "Well, there has been no wind these days, but Yue'er is thoughtful!" The more the old lady looks at this granddaughter-in-law, the more she likes her.

"Let's use this ox-cart first, and then change to a horse-drawn carriage after a while!"

"Hey!" Yun Qi was even happier when he heard that he could change the carriage: "Sister-in-law, you are so kind!"

"Miss Nangong!" A middle-aged man came to the bullock cart.

Su Niyue knew that this man was one of the exiles. He heard that he turned out to be a fourth-grade official. It seemed that because he said something wrong in court, Long Yan was angered, and the whole family was sentenced to exile!

But Su Niyue didn't believe it, but it was none of her business.

"Uh, what's the matter?" Su Niyue really didn't understand the ancient names and didn't know how to address people.

"Young lady, can you rent your old cart to me or sell it to me?"

"Sell it, how much will you pay?"

"Fifty cents?"

"Well... okay!" Su Niyue was a little reluctant.

Su Niyue took the fifty cents and gave it directly to Yun Qi, and then took out a few pieces of silver from her pocket: "You should keep less money on your body, so you can be emergency at critical moments!"

The old lady looked at the happy scene in front of her, and the gloom in her heart dissipated a lot: "It seems that there is hope for the future!"

She never dreamed that not only would she be able to eat fish and meat on the way to exile, but she would also be able to ride on an ox cart. This is all the credit of my grandson’s wife.

The family had a meal of meat buns and wontons brought back from the Su Niyue Market, gave Nangong Yunteng a bowl of chicken soup, and started to pack and prepare to set off.

Nangong Yunteng was placed in the bullock cart and finally no longer had to bask in the sun.

Su Niyue was humming a little tune and was busy. She placed the pots and pans at the back of the cart and covered them with a raincoat. Many of the exiles looked at her with envy, and of course some were jealous.

The family was still walking at the back of the team, Nangong Yunqi was in charge of driving the car, Yunran sat in the middle, and Su Niyue was next to him. The three of them were so happy that they didn't feel hot anymore, and they felt like they were going out for an outing.

In the evening, the group of prisoners arrived at a place called Xujiacun to stay overnight. The village leader personally arranged a place for the prisoners to stay. It was still thirty cents in a Datongpu shop. Some families specially set aside rooms to rent to the prisoners. The room costs 500 yuan, and the conditions are much better than those at the inn. At least Datongpu doesn’t have such a strong smell of sweat!

Fortunately, there was an empty yard in Li Zheng's house. For one tael of silver per night, it had three bedrooms with a kitchen, and could also provide fodder for cattle. Su Niyue quickly paid and the family moved in.

Su Niyue went for a walk around the village, preparing to buy some fresh food. When passing by Li Zheng's house, she took a fancy to the big white goose in his yard: "Xu Lizheng, do you sell your geese?"

"Sell it! Three hundred coins each!"

"Okay! Two of them!"

Su Niyue carried the big white goose, gave one to Liu Quan, and kept one for herself.

For dinner, white rice was stewed in an iron pot with goose. When Su Niyue was eating deliciously, she inadvertently glanced at Nangong Yunteng who was on the kang. She happened to see him move his hands and glance at the family who were eating. Everyone was immersed in cooking, and after thinking for a while they said: "Yunqi, let me sleep with your elder brother tonight! You go to my room." He glanced at Nangong Yunteng again, and moved his fingers again.

Yun Qi didn't understand why they had already assigned rooms, and his sister-in-law suddenly wanted to change them again, but as a couple, they should sleep in the same room, so he nodded: "Yeah!"

"I have to give your brother acupuncture tonight. I can't stop. Keep at it!"
