Her daughter rarely enters this yard on her own initiative, just because there are two children in the yard.

"Xier, why are you here?"

Jiang took the child into his arms.

"Mom, are everything arranged?"

Shi Xi sat down opposite Jiang, not forgetting to look at the child in Jiang's arms.

The child's eyes were a little timid, he wanted to look but didn't dare to look at Shi Xi.

Shi Xi felt inexplicably sad.

Both children are two years old, and she has held them only a handful of times.

Now that the two children were cautious when seeing her, Shi Xi felt a little sad in her heart.

Xiaotuanzi, who used to be lively and active, even a little bully, turned into a well-behaved little quail in front of his old mother.

"There is nothing to prepare. If the house is ransacked, nothing can be taken away."

"Some important matters have been notified to your grandfather's family."

"Now, I'm just waiting for the imperial edict to confiscate my house."

A trace of sadness flashed across Jiang's face, and she continued to help Xiaotuanzi get dressed.

The atmosphere instantly became extremely depressing.

Shi Xi didn't know how to comfort Jiang.

"Mom, the weather is hot now, why do you put so many clothes on Chuchu?"

Shi Xi was puzzled.

"The road to exile was difficult, and we had to sleep in the open air. The government did not allow us to take packages with us on the road. My mother could only put more clothes on the children so that they would not get cold on the road."

Jiang's face was filled with sadness.

"Grandma, Piggy is hot and Piggy doesn't want to wear it."

Xiaotuanzi resisted wearing clothes.

The child can't stand it on a hot day.

"Mom, the weather is very hot now. If you wear too much clothes, your child will get too hot and easily suffer from heatstroke. This will be counterproductive."

Shi Xi persuaded.

Jiang's intention was good, but if he did this, the child would definitely collapse from heatstroke before he left for a day.

Hearing this, Jiang's hands paused.

I couldn't help but burst into tears.

"Son, it's grandma who's sorry for you."

"Grandma is the one who got you into trouble."

Jiang suddenly burst into tears while holding her child.

Xiaotuanzi didn't know why her grandmother cried suddenly, and she started crying too unconsciously.

Suddenly, the sound of crying from the grandfather and grandson could be heard in the yard.

Shi Xi looked at a loss.

Shi Yan in the room heard the sound and went out.

Then he saw his grandmother and sister hugging each other and crying, and his mother sitting together.

At a young age, he was a precocious person, and today he heard that their Shi family was about to be ransacked and exiled.

Although he didn't understand the meaning, he subconsciously knew that it was not a good thing.

Because of this incident, the pressure in the whole house was extremely low today, and no one in the whole house was in a good mood.

At a young age, he was very sensitive. He knew how to observe words and emotions very early, and he was already aware of the cause-and-effect relationship.

Come to think of it, my grandmother's crying must have been because of the confiscation of her home and her exile.

The little man's hands were tightly clasped together.

If the old lady of the Fu family saw Shi Yan's angry look at this moment, she would definitely be shocked.

Shi Xi saw the little man at the door from the corner of his eye.

My heart softened.

Although she came through the book, the two children were born from this body.

Inexplicably, I felt sorry for the two children.

For a long time, I couldn’t get either father’s love or mother’s love.

I have lived a life of dependence on others since I was a child. Although my grandfather and his family love their two children very much, they still depend on others.

No one wants to live such a life.

Just when the atmosphere is depressing.

The maid's panicked voice sounded outside the door.

Shi Xi understands.

What was supposed to come came.

The person who came to give the order was none other than Eunuch Defu, who was beside the emperor.

At this time, the front yard was already full of Shi family members.

Eunuch Defu glanced at everyone and immediately made a sharp voice.

"It is destined to be carried by heaven, the emperor decreed."

"Shi Ninglang of the Shi family abused his power, committed corruption and accepted bribes."

"He also collaborated with foreign enemies and deliberately conspired to rebel."

"I was deeply saddened to hear this."

"Remembering his contribution to the Northern Dynasty can save him from death."

"But death penalty can be avoided, but living crime cannot be avoided."

"Seize his whole family and exile him to the Southern Wilderness. No matter whether he lives or dies, I admire this!"

When everyone in the Shi family heard this, their hearts were filled with despair.

The old lady fainted immediately.

"mother!"

"mother!"

...

Shi's family suddenly fell into chaos.

Eunuch Defu just glanced at it lightly.

Immediately he signaled to the officials.

"Hurry up and put on your coarse linen clothes."

An official came forward and threw away the coarse linen clothes of Shi's family.

Exiled prisoners are not allowed to dress neatly.

Although the family members were unwilling to do so, they still changed it obediently.

"Eunuch Defu, our two children are too young to wear these coarse linen clothes. Can you allow them to wear these clothes?"

Jiang secretly gave Eunuch Defu some money and begged.

Just now, I took advantage of the chaos and put on two thick clothes for the two children.

Eunuch Defu glanced at the two cute little guys, just like the two money-distributing boys in front of Guanyin Bodhisattva, and felt inexplicably soft in his heart.

Thinking that Shi Ninglang was pretty good to him on weekdays, he nodded.

"Thank you, Eunuch Defu, thank you, Eunuch Defu!"

Jiang quickly thanked him.

Shi Xi squatted down in front of the old lady and pinched Renzhong.

After a while, the old lady slowly woke up.

Looking at the messy mansion in front of me, tears fell down.

Outside Shi's house, it was already surrounded by people.

All the people came to watch the excitement.

Today I raided several families in a row.

These spectators followed the officers and soldiers all the way.

The Shi family was the last family, with the most people watching the excitement.

Fortunately, the Shi family is not well-known and has not done any particularly bad things in recent years. However, no rotten eggs have been thrown at them by onlookers.

But unpleasant voices kept coming, especially towards Shi Xi.

"The house has been fine for many years, so why was it ransacked for no reason?"

"No need to ask, it must be the fault of the eldest lady of the Shi family."

"Look, ever since the scandal of the eldest lady of the Shi family appeared, the life of the Shi family has been getting worse day by day. Now, their home has been directly confiscated and exiled."

"When you say that, it's true."

"It can only be said that the Shi family was all implicated by the eldest lady of the Shi family."

...

Shi Xi listened to the bad comments all the way, the expression on his face not changing at all.

When they arrived at the city gate, they saw several families of prisoners waiting outside the city gate.

Many relatives came outside the city to say goodbye.

Shi Xi's family was the most deserted because Shi Ninglang was born from a grassroots background.

After finally gaining a foothold in the capital, something unexpected happened.

There are no relatives in the city.

Some of them are just Jiang’s natal family.

Her maternal family had already been in contact before her exile.

Seeing relatives from each family coming to see him off, Shi's family looked envious.

It was almost time to leave.

A low-key carriage came slowly.

The carriage was left in front of the Shi family.

When the family members saw this, they all looked towards the carriage.

I saw a woman dressed in men's clothing slowly getting off the carriage.

Shi Xi recognized this person at a glance.
