On the Difficulties of Escape in Ancient Times

What Xiao Xiao didn't know was that Boss Xiao was really excited about this large sum of money.

But thinking about the current world, I am afraid that one day a fight will break out. If I don't take care of any of my daughters, they have money in their hands. They can not only buy food and drink, but also 'buy their lives' at a critical moment?

Even he has experienced life and death several times in just a few months. He risked his life to protect his wife and daughter, but his daughters also fought for him.

He couldn't guarantee that he would always be with Mrs. Liu. What if something bad happened to him, and he still expected his daughters to protect Mrs. Liu and their unborn child?

Besides, the money was easy to come by, and it wasn't parted from his hands, so it wasn't as painful as ripping out your heart.

Therefore, after Mr. Jiang left, Mr. Xiao wished he could cross his legs, drink a few sips of knives, and hum a few colorful tunes.

Mrs. Liu came in with the medicine: "Husband, it's time for you to drink the medicine."

"Be careful with the ironing," Mr. Xiao sat up from the couch: "Can you rest assured now? Xiu'er and Jiang Yu's marriage is done."

"It's indeed a good thing." Ms. Liu also rarely smiled happily: "I'm just looking forward to marrying Xiu'er next spring. It would be even better if I could marry Lian'er next winter."

Boss Xiao likes to see her smile.

Nowadays, people pay attention to returning to their roots after falling leaves, and they all like to live a peaceful life.

But now Boss Xiao feels that it is good to leave his hometown.

In the past, Ms. Liu's lukewarm treatment of him was considered a good thing, but what he was most afraid of was that if he wanted to get close to her, she would either have a cold face or glare at him.

It made him look like a bully.

After leaving home, Mrs. Liu finally saw the good in herself. After so many years of marriage, it was only these few months that made him understand what it meant to be in love, to be in love with each other, to be like a fish in water... Anyway, it was very beautiful.

"You are not afraid of being late for a good meal," Mr. Xiao said proudly: "When the Jiang family comes to offer employment, we and the Jiang family will become amiable, and there will be many people who come to ask for the second girl's hand. Be careful not to be picky."

He discussed with her in a good voice and said: "But there is no rush for Xiaosan'er's marriage. She is still young. We will keep her for two more years."

Mrs. Liu gave him an angry look: "I finally understand that you favor the third girl."

He reasoned with him again: "Girls here in Jiangsu and Zhejiang usually get engaged when they are fifteen or sixteen years old. Our Xiao Xiao is already sixteen during the Chinese New Year. If it is suitable, we can make a decision and wait until the year after next, or It’s just a good time to get married next year.”

Boss Xiao nodded repeatedly: "You are right, I will listen to you."

In my heart, I had the idea to go against my will, and I had to make a private agreement with my mistress so that she would not agree to marry so early.

According to his thoughts, he wanted Xiao Xiao to recruit a son-in-law.

Even if Mrs. Liu gives birth to a son, it doesn't matter. He can see that his third son is brave and has good fortune, so she can earn a share of the family business by herself.

The third son who recruits a son-in-law can be the master of the family, live a comfortable life, and can also take care of his unborn younger brother or sister.

Mrs. Liu waited for him to drink the medicine, then stood up: "I'm going to make lunch."

Boss Xiao hurriedly said: "You want Lin Yatou and the others to cook?"

"Lin Xuan and the others went to the restaurant to help with the cashier." Ms. Liu sighed softly: "Fortunately, they are here, and they can help me whether at home or in the restaurant."

Boss Xiao does not feel that he has wronged the Lin sisters: "We have not treated them badly. When she marries the old man, we can prepare more dowry for her."

They originally thought that Xiao Xiu and the others had gone to the countryside and would come back home tomorrow at the earliest. Unexpectedly, Jiang Yu actually sent Xiao Xiu back when the time was approaching.

After Jiang Yu left, Xiao Xiu also hurriedly went to see Boss Xiao: "Dad, he came back this time to deliver a letter to County Magistrate Chen on behalf of Mr. Li." "According to Mr. Li's guess, I'm afraid there will be someone at the Wei Institute. Civil strife affects the city."

"Mr. Li also said that our countryside is nice and close to the mountains and forests, so it can be regarded as a retreat."

"I just don't know if dad and uncle can ride in a mule cart?"

Madam Liu said worriedly: "I'm afraid the internal injuries won't happen so quickly, okay? Why don't we ask again when Mr. Jiang comes to see your father?"

Seeing Mrs. Liu's worried eyes, Mr. Xiao smiled relaxedly: "The old man said that I can get up and walk around. It's just that your mother is nervous about my body and is worried about it."

Mrs. Liu glared at him: "There are still several black bruises on the body, and the injury has not yet subsided. Can you be careless?"

Boss Xiao was scolded, but he still smiled happily and immediately begged for mercy: "I was wrong, and you also thought about me..."

Xiao Xiu lowered his eyes, suspecting that they were pretending that he didn't exist.

At first, when they saw their father's playful smile and unruly look, they, as daughters, were embarrassed to hear it, let alone see it.

No, only the younger sister watched it with gusto and told them that this is how a husband and wife get along normally.

They suspected that the younger sister was lying to them.

But the relationship between father and mother is harmonious, which is better than the tense situation in the past.

She was embarrassed to look at it, but she could not help but feel a bit of longing in her heart. Will she be able to marry someone in the future?
Mrs. Liu was too embarrassed to listen any more and decisively changed the subject: "Now that my parents are so concerned about the restaurant, can they agree to let them close the restaurant and go back to the countryside?"

Boss Xiao is not worried: "Haha, don't worry, they are more precious than us. As long as you tell them that there is going to be chaos in the city, they will definitely close the door immediately."

Mrs. Liu thought the same thing: "Tomorrow is the fifth day of the twelfth lunar month, and it will be the New Year after the twelfth lunar month. Let's go buy some food tomorrow and take it back."

The most important thing is to prepare more medicinal materials, which can save lives in critical moments.

They felt that no matter how anxious they were, they couldn't start a fight right away.

At this moment, County Magistrate Chen felt his feet weaken after receiving the letter from Jiang Yu. Fortunately, there was an armchair behind the desk, so he did not make a fool of himself.

He sat down and asked Jiang Yu solemnly: "Is Mr. Li seriously injured?"

His son was under Li Yan, so he did know Li Yan and Li Yan's family background.

We also know that Li Yan has been practicing martial arts since he was a child, and went to the army at a very young age. He worked hard to become a fifth-grade general, so it is impossible to scare him.

"The injury was serious, with suppuration and internal injuries. Fortunately, he is in good health." On this cold day, Jiang Yu saw cold sweat breaking out on his forehead, and knew that this matter was more serious than he thought.

In addition to the house they live in now, their family also owns the Huichun Hall, which is Mingchu's family property.

There are also three stores that are rented out, and two houses that are empty, just for storing medicinal materials.

But these industries are all in the city.

Now that there might be chaos in the city, they had no property outside the city and suddenly had no place to stay.

No, Jiang Yu thought, they could stay at Xiao's house for a few days.

"I will have someone send the letter to Yuhang overnight." County Magistrate Chen took a deep breath: "I will go with you to see him tomorrow."
