Chapter 20 Why is there no food?

Shen Ru's frank words actually frightened Shen Ming and the others.

However, people are afraid of being hungry. Shen Ming was sure that Shen Ru had a lot of food hidden in this carriage.

"I'll go, Shen Ru. As a member of the Shen family, everyone in the Shen family should have my share!"

Shen Ming said shamelessly and climbed into the carriage.

Under the moonlight, Shen Ming stared at the box and swallowed. Countless foods had appeared in his mind, and his stomach growled in response.

After opening the box, Shen Ming was stunned. Clothes, quilts, and what were these? What about food? Where is the food?
Shen Ming took everything out of the box as if he didn't believe it, but Shen Ming didn't see any sign of food.

"Why is this happening? On the road to exile, why would you need something like this?"

Shen Ming got out of the carriage angrily, "Shen Ru, where is your brain? Why is there no food in such a big box?"

"Yes, it's just not there, but you don't believe it!"

Shen Ru said slowly, "You have all been deceived by him. I am digging wild vegetables and fishing in the river with you. I also eat steamed buns, but I only travel in a carriage. Why, you still think I am a fool?" Food for the carriage?”

"Shen Ming, tell me, what should I do? I have a bad temper. My things were rummaged through, and I'm very angry!"

Shen Ru said, intertwining his hands and making a rattling sound.

"You, what do you want to do? If you hit someone, you will be taught a lesson by the officers."

Shen Ming was a little afraid of Shen Ru.

"It's none of our business, it's all his instigation."

The remaining people ran fast one by one, leaving Shen Ming alone with trembling legs.

"What are you doing? Don't you want to sleep?"

The officer who was following him spoke at the right moment, and Shen Ru wondered if he had been staring.

She knew that Chen Qing's group was also curious about what was in her carriage.

What a joke, nothing is safe in your own space!
"Uncle Fu, let me go and sort things out first!"

Shen Ru let Shen Ming go for the time being and said to Uncle Fu.

Uncle Fu was surprised. There was no food in the carriage?
"Miss, how about I go buy some food tomorrow?"

Shen Ru got into the carriage and sorted his things before coming out.

"Uncle Fu, there is a mezzanine in the carriage, and some food is underneath. He just didn't notice it."

Shen Ru whispered to Uncle Fu, "Please go inside and rest!"

Shen Ru also said hello to the officials who were following him, said some nice words, and then returned to the place where he was being held to rest.

In the morning, Shen Ru got up early, took out the pot from the carriage, borrowed the fire of the inn, and cooked a pot full of wild vegetable porridge.

Naturally, he wanted to satisfy his family's appetite first. The station manager asked for food and drink. They looked down on the wild vegetable porridge, so it was the concubines from Prince Jing's Mansion who took the initiative to ask for it from Shen Ru.

"It's just wild vegetable porridge. I won't charge you for this. You can share it among yourself."

Shen Ru said grandly, "Who said I, Shen Ru, am stingy? The landlord's family really doesn't have enough food left!"

"Boss, did you really listen to what Miss Shen said?"

Separated by a wall, Chen Qing and all his officials were eating. Chen Qing's people asked Chen Qingdao in a low voice.

"Who knows?"

Chen Qing also heard what happened last night, so there was no food in the Shen family's carriage?
But where does Shen Runa hide the money that she feels she can never use up?
"Miss Shen, I actually want to shamelessly ask you for a favor. The old lady is too weak. Although she is not shackled, she can't hold it anymore even if she travels fifty miles a day. Can you borrow a carriage to ride with us? Just the old lady, even the child. Even if you can’t walk, there are adults who can hold you and carry you.”

Mrs. Zhang from Prince Jing's Mansion asked, "As for the money, we can only afford this little."

Shen Ru looked at the bit of broken silver and didn't dislike it, so he grabbed it.

"Okay, the carriage is quite big, and the old lady is not missing." If Shen Ru agreed, there would be no objections from the rest of the family.

Chen Qing, on the other hand, came to blackmail Shen Ru again!

"Miss Shen, Princess Jing's wife is a repeat offender. Your kindness is a challenge to the imperial power!"

"Master Chen, please be more patient."

Shen Ru put the broken silver into Chen Qing's hand, "When we reach the next level, I will send a signal and ask my old servant to bring some silver."

"The old lady is really old. Mr. Chen doesn't want anything to happen to the old lady, right? After all, she is a repeat offender!"

For the sake of money, Chen Qing became more considerate.

"It seems that Miss Shen is really kind-hearted."

"It's also thanks to Mr. Chen, Mr. Chen really has the heart to smell the roses like a tiger!"

Shen Ru immediately praised Chen Qing.

Chen Qing frowned and walked away, as if he didn't understand what he meant.

"It will cost you money!"

The old lady in the carriage said apologetically.

"Aunt, Shen Yan is incompetent and can only let her daughter take care of everything."

Shen Yan said guiltily, without Shen Ru's plan, he would still be standing in the prison car in shackles!

"Miss Shen is worthy of the old Marquis' mantle!"

The old lady said with emotion.

Shen Ru got on the carriage, happened to hear this sentence, and immediately smiled and said:
"Isn't it true? I have almost forgotten what my grandfather taught me. I fell down while riding a horse and suddenly it was like the seven meridians and eight meridians were opened."

"Today, I am capable of both literary and military skills, and I am also thick-skinned!"

"How can you talk about yourself like that?" Mother Shen said immediately, "Aru, don't blame me for not letting you use swords and guns anymore!"

In the past, Mrs. Feng ridiculed Shen Ru for being a rough girl and said that she would not be able to get married in the future.As a mother, how can you not feel angry?
After the old marquis passed away, she ordered Shen Ru not to practice martial arts, and asked her to learn nvhong, piano, chess, calligraphy and painting. After a few years of hard work, she was still living well.

That time she slipped out to ride a horse and fell off, which really made her worried and regretful for a while.

"Mom, I won't blame you. Maybe there's God's will in the dark. Now that I'm on the road to exile, I still have some skills!"

Shen Ru said with a smile, "Old madam, just ride the carriage with peace of mind."

"Do you still want to eat something? The wild vegetable porridge in the morning will only fill your stomach."

Shen Rumah ran to the box and opened it, pretending to take something from the compartment, but in fact he was transferring the pastries in the space to the box.

"Shen Ming wanted to steal some food last night. Fortunately, I put all the food under this compartment."

With that said, Shen Ru took out a packet of walnut cakes.

"Old lady, would you like to try it?"

"Okay, thank you!"

Even though she was in such a miserable state, the old lady's movements showed nobility.

"Sister, we want too!"

Shen Xuan and Shen Nian whispered, looking worried that others would hear but eager to hear.

"Eat, eat, and let Uncle Fu buy it after you finish."

Shen Ru chuckled and said, "It feels so good to sit in the carriage and eat cakes on the way to exile!"
