Chapter 162 Pickled Vegetable Steamed Buns
"You old woman, I'll kill you now!"

The two people standing in front of Su Yun gave her a fierce look.

Su Yun sneered, my old lady learned fencing in her previous life!How dare you underestimate her!
"It doesn't matter who killed whom!"

So they attacked her again, but Su Yun could barely deal with it.

No matter what, she must buy time for Qi Ruoshu to escape.

But gradually, she felt a little strenuous.

But just when she was about to be unable to resist, suddenly, a sharp arrow flashed in front of her eyes, piercing straight into the chests of those two people.

In the next second, a blood mist sprayed out from the chests of the two people, and then they fell to the ground with their heads tilted.

Su Yun was taken aback by this sudden situation, and hurriedly turned her head to look.

As a result, they saw a few people riding towards them on horseback, and the leader was not her godson.

Immediately, she was overjoyed that she was saved!

Soon, Ren Xiu came up to her on horseback and hurriedly asked, "Godmother, are you all right?"

Su Yun nodded immediately, "I'm fine. I almost had something to do. Fortunately, you arrived in time."

"Ruoshu, did you see Ruoshu on the road, I let her run away first."

Ren Xiu frowned, "I didn't see it, maybe I hid in the mountains, I'll send someone to look for it."

After that, he looked up, but when he saw a person, his eyes narrowed slightly, and his brows could not help but frown tightly.

"It's him?"

Su Yun was suddenly curious, "Ren Xiu, do you know him? That person is the leader of that group of people, and he said he has enmity with our He family, but I have never seen him before."

Ren Xiu sneered, "Mother, you don't know, this person is the one who brought people to Xiaoliu Village to grab food."

"At that time, he took advantage of the chaos and fled. I couldn't find him no matter how hard I searched. I didn't expect him to hide here. This time, he must not be allowed to escape." After speaking, he raised the bow and arrow in his hand and pointed at the The man shoots.

In the next second, the man was hit by an arrow in the leg.

Then he knelt down on the ground with a plop, and couldn't help cursing angrily, "Bastard, you actually attacked me!"

Ren Xiu strode towards him and sneered, "Naturally, you don't need to be upright when dealing with people like you."

"Come on, grab this lifeless thing!"

Soon, some soldiers stepped forward and escorted the kneeling person to stand up.

Su Yun also glared at him, "What did I say just now, my son is coming and I want you to look good!"

"I must regret it now, but it's too late."

Ren Xiu looked at her and said with a chuckle, "Don't worry, godmother, I will let this person suffer a good torture after I go back, and vent my anger on you!"

Su Yun nodded, "That's right, but it really pissed me off." If it wasn't for maintaining her image, she wished she could step up and punch this bastard right now.

At this moment, Qi Ruoshu came back, seeing that Su Yun was safe and sound, she was deeply relieved.

"Mom! Are you okay?" She asked, looking her up, down, left, and right, her eyes full of worry.

Su Yun shook her head slightly, and said with a smile, "It's okay, luckily Ren Xiu arrived in time, so it's safe and sound."

"How are you and Yuming all right?"

Qi Ruoshu shook her head, "It's okay, Yuming didn't cry for a moment, very good."

After that, Su Yun looked at Ren Xiu curiously and asked, "By the way, how did you know we were coming?"

"It was Anwen who wrote to me and told me, and then I figured that you would come in a few days, so I wanted to pick you up. Fortunately, I happened to meet." Otherwise, the consequences would be disastrous.

Then he said again, "Godmother, let me take you to Liangcheng."

Su Yun was not polite at all, and nodded, "Okay, I feel more at ease with you here."

With Ren Xiu's escort, the journey was indeed calm and safe.

Until the evening they finally arrived at Liangcheng.

Looking at the towering city wall in the distance, Su Yun raised her head and looked at Ren Xiu who was riding a horse not far from the carriage.

"Ren Xiu, you've already arrived in Liangcheng. If you have something to do, go and do it. We'll go to the city by ourselves."

This escort must have delayed him a lot of time.

But after she finished speaking, she saw some hesitation on his face, so she had no choice but to speak again.

"We've already arrived in Liangcheng, and there's no danger, so let's go."

So in the end, Ren Xiu had no choice but to take the people away first.

After a while, the carriage slowly entered the city, but after entering the city, Su Yun was a little dumbfounded.

It seems that this place spent all the money on building the city wall.

The city walls outside are quite impressive, but the houses inside the city look dilapidated.

Moreover, the streets are in a depression, with only a few sporadic small stalls selling steamed buns and sesame cakes.

What's more, most of the clothes on the people here are patched, and some are even sallow and emaciated, so skinny.

"Mother, it looks like this place is poorer than we imagined." Qi Ruoshu couldn't help but said.

She has grown up so much, she has never seen such a poor and dilapidated place.

Su Yun nodded slightly, and then said, "This is near the border, there are wars all the year round, the people are in dire straits, it's normal to be poor."

"But it's all right now. There will be no more wars, and things will gradually get better in the future."

After about half an hour, they found the yamen.

This yamen looks like it has been in disrepair for a long time, even the stone lions outside the door are dusty.

The corner of Su Yun's mouth twitched, but she didn't say anything disgusting.

He got out of the carriage and walked slowly to the gate of the yamen.

The gatekeeper was a boy about sixteen or seventeen years old.

Seeing them, he immediately asked, "Who are you?"

The Liu family next to Su Yun immediately said, "This is the old lady, the magistrate's mother, over there is the magistrate's wife."

When the gatekeeper heard this, his eyes lit up immediately, and he stood up straight in an instant, "You little one has eyes but doesn't know Mount Tai, please come in quickly."

Su Yun felt a little funny, this kid is quite good at talking.

"Is your magistrate in the Yamen now?"

The young man immediately shook his head, "My lord is not here, he has gone out for inspection, and he will not be back until the afternoon."

"However, my lord has already ordered you to come, so the room has been prepared, and I will take you there first."

Compared with the room in her home now, the room here is not a bit worse.

But that's the best condition now, and she's not picky.

"Old madam, madam, do you have anything you want to eat? I'll go to the kitchen and tell you." At this moment, the boy looked at them and asked.

"What do you adults usually eat?" Su Yun didn't answer immediately, but asked curiously.

"My lord eats the same as our ordinary policemen. Sometimes it's brown rice porridge, sometimes it's steamed buns and pickles."

When Qi Ruoshu heard this, she immediately felt distressed, "Ah, what can I do if I eat these, my body will collapse."

The boy raised his hand and scratched his head, and said with a smile, "Ma'am, it's good to be able to eat these, like many ordinary people, who can't even eat a meal of white flour steamed buns at home all year round."

Well, she underestimated the poverty here.
