Chapter 30 200 taels of silver per month

Seeing Mrs. Chen, dragging her injured leg, crawling to Yu Hui's side, and throwing herself on Yu Hui's body with her disheveled clothes, she burst into tears, and the corner of Yu Luo's mouth twitched!
In fact, the skin trauma is really not so serious that he can't walk, let alone Chen's injury, which happens to be on the calf, where the most flesh is.

After a few days, even if it hurts, I can stand up and walk for a while.

It was also the selfish old woman Chen who tortured Yu Zhengqing for two days and traveled across mountains and rivers for fear that her injured leg would never recover, and finally encountered such a thing.

What's the use of crying now?They were lucky to be able to reach the wilderness alive, not to mention that Old Yu was just sick?

At this time, Wu Dahai and a group of officers and soldiers were also tired from walking, so they simply sat on the ground and rested, regardless of what was happening in front of them.

Wu Dahai didn't tie Yu Zhengqing up immediately, just to give him the greatest convenience, and it was even more impossible to ask him to take old man Yu for treatment.

But if the temptation is big enough, it can be done.

Yu Zhengqing walked up to Wu Dahai who was resting, and bowed with cupped hands and fists.

If it were in the past, Yu Zhengqing, who was once the prince, would not have looked at Wu Dahai directly, but things are different now.

"Commander Wu, can you take a step to speak?"

Seeing Yu Zhengqing like this, Wu Dahai knew that this was another chance for him to make a fortune.

Wu Dahai, who was happy in his heart, but with a cold expression on his face, glanced around with a livid face, "The imperial court has a rule that you must not delay the schedule. If you delay the arrival time, you will be punished with a hundred lashes. Gotta think it over."

The two of them walked not far away, Wu Dahai said coldly, with a stern tone that left no room for negotiation.

"I know that, but I just beg Commander Wu to show mercy and allow me to take my father to seek medical treatment. If Commander Wu is willing to do this, I will definitely thank you very much."

"Why thank you so much? Prince Rongan probably only has a few thousand silver coins on him, right? It's not enough for me to take such a risk."

Hearing Wu Dahai's words, Yu Zhengqing was overjoyed, knowing that there was room for negotiation.

"Two hundred miles to the north, there is a village in my concubine's room. There is also a box of gold and silver jewelry in the village. If Commander Wu is willing to make this convenient, I am willing to inform you of the specific address."

It is normal for exiled criminals to hide their property privately. It is impossible for a large family to keep all their property in one place. It is very risky.

A companion is like a tiger, and the Yu family has already taken precautions, so Wu Dahai is not surprised at all.

Didn't he take on this hard job just to make a fortune on the way?And that so-called box of gold and silver treasures is naturally more valuable than the silver on Wu Dahai.

"If you dare to lie to this general, you are still thousands of miles away from Pingyang, even if you have skills, but your wife and children will not believe it, and you will ignore it."

Wealth and wealth are in danger, although Wu Dahai believed it to a great extent, he still had to speak harshly first.

After a brief rest, Yu Zhengqing carried Old Yu on his back and continued to move forward with the team.

Without Yu Zhengqing, Mrs. Chen had no choice but to move forward with the support of her two daughters-in-law. She was limping and did not dare to make trouble.

After walking for five or six miles, Mrs. Chen couldn't stand it anymore, so she started yelling, hoping to arouse the distress of the two daughter-in-laws and let them carry her behind her back.

In fact, the wound really didn't hurt too much, but she was so pampered, she hadn't walked such a long distance in decades, she was really tired and flustered.

There was a "crack" from the whip, and it hit Chen's body heavily. Chen, who was already weak all over, screamed in pain and jumped up immediately!
She was listless and shouting before, but now she looked like she was dying of exhaustion and pain?Just a whip to expose everything!
"Why are you screaming? If you don't want to leave, you'll just hit me to death. Don't make yourself upset by screaming!"

After the official whip was served, Chen was spitting again. After taking the whip, Chen immediately shut her mouth honestly and did not dare to scream again.

Lan Shi and Chang Huilan, who were supporting her, lowered their heads silently, having endured enough for a long time.

Seeing Mrs. Chen eating the whip, they were already happy in their hearts.

They knew that if the officials didn't intervene, Mrs. Chen would definitely ask them to carry her.

At noon, a group of people walked near a small river. Wu Dahai ordered a few people to deal with the wild boar and rest on the spot.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Yu Luo and the others saw Yu Zhengqing and left quietly with Yu Hui on their backs.

"Mom and Dad, this wealth can really make people push around. I don't know how much benefit Yu Zhengqing gave Wu Dahai, so that he could take Yu Hui to see a doctor like this."

The wild boar definitely didn't deserve the prisoners like them. The three of them sat on the ground, dug a hole casually, cooked a pot of porridge, and ate it with steamed buns.

"Regardless of them, we just do our best."

"Son, don't scare your mother!"

While the three of them were drinking porridge and eating steamed buns, Wang Ying from the third bedroom cried anxiously while holding five-year-old Yu Xiaoqing.

Ye Jiamei raised her eyes and saw the child in Wang Ying's arms, her face was flushed, her eyes were closed and she was drowsy.

"I gonna go see……

After saying that, Ye Jiamei stood up and walked towards Wang Ying.

"It seems that my mother's occupational disease cannot be cured."

"Leave her alone. As long as she is not a heinous person, let her shine."

After a while, Ye Jiamei came back and sat cross-legged next to her father and daughter.

"What's the matter? Is the child sick?"

"Well, they have a fever. I quietly gave them some antipyretics. They probably caught cold in the mountains last night. I see their three-bedroom family is really pitiful. The padded jackets on their bodies are all hard and not warm. , Patch after patch, after Pingyang, their family doesn't know if they can reach the wilderness safely."

Saying that, Ye Jiamei shook her head, picked up the rice porridge, and took another sip.

"Life is really difficult for people in this era. When Yu Hui was a wealthy man and became a marquis, I heard that he would ask the accountant to pay 100 taels of silver to his two brothers every month. I don't know how they could still live in such poverty. ?”

Hearing this, Yu Junjie also shook his head with a look of helplessness.

"Father and mother, do you think it is possible that the 200 taels of silver per month has never been taken away by the couple, otherwise why do I think their life for the couple shouldn't be so hard.

Even if they are exiled, they will at least wear the thickest clothes to cope with the bitter cold in the wilderness. Looking at their clothes, I don’t think of people who have 100 taels of silver a month. And look at their food, which is all wild vegetables and miscellaneous grains. "
