The Yang family is rich in supplies, enough to carry several oxcarts, and each oxcart is tightly covered.

Ke Muqing took the cloth bag and packed roughly thirty kilograms of coarse grains, ten kilograms of fine grains, three kilograms of bacon, and three kilograms of fresh pork shank.

"Take these first." Ke Muqing handed the things to Mrs. Li San's maid, and then went to another oxcart to get three bunches of candied haws, half a pack of preserved fruit and half a package of preserved meat. Thinking of the fact that there are still young people in the Li family, Boy, Ke Muqing added another handful of candy.

"You can take these back." Ke Muqing smiled happily, "Then I will accept these things from you."

While talking, Ke Muqing also secretly observed Mrs. Li San's reaction. The maid was a little reluctant, but Mrs. Li San thanked her very happily and even saluted Ke Muqing.

The two masters and servants walked back holding two big bags. Ke Muqing thought for a moment and shouted to the two of them, "You put your things in your own car. Remember to return the bags to me later."

Mrs. Li San turned around and said yes, then quickly walked back towards her carriage.

After putting the things away, Mrs. Li San couldn't wait to take out the snacks and happily shared her good mood with the maid.

"I didn't expect the aunt to have so many good things. You tidy up these things, and then give the bag to the aunt to send back. I'll go check on the children."

"Girl, that aunt is too greedy. If your golden hairpin is taken to the pawn shop, it can be used as a hundred taels of silver at least. She is good, so she gave us this thing to send us away." The maid was a little sad, "These days are getting more and more. It’s getting harder and harder to walk, now I have to treat myself as something, what will I do in the future?”

"Xing'er, don't talk about people behind their backs like this." Madam Li San shook her head, "Madam is already very good. After all, I didn't ask for so many things in exchange. These are all the things Madam gave us."

Mrs. Li San lowered her voice and said, "The aunt's family are all scholars, and they are related to the government officials. Their family traveled south to study. You see, all they eat for lunch is rice. There must be no shortage of money in the aunt's family."

"You have also seen the situation in the county. Even a pot of water in the inn costs us 20 cents. That aunt is not a short-sighted person. Nowadays, the whole county can't buy food even if there is money, aunt If you are willing to give it to us in exchange, you are already kind-hearted."

After Mrs. Li San finished speaking, she held a small bag of ready-to-eat snacks and trotted towards the place where the Li family was resting.

Ke Muqing didn't know what the master and servant said, but she could see that Mrs. Li San was happy when she ran towards the Li family.

Of course, Ke Muqing was also very happy.

She just put the gold hairpin on the shelves in the mall. She thought it would be only one or two hundred taels at most, but unexpectedly the system gave a price of one thousand taels.

She was immediately shocked.

But Ke Muqing didn’t click on the sale right away.

There are people following her now, just in case she just puts things into the mall first.

Of course, Ke Muqing would not be so evil-hearted, and would use that little food to exchange Mrs. Li San's precious golden hairpin.

She had already estimated the things she gave Mrs. Li San. If the Li family saved some of the food, they could still survive the ten days.

She didn't believe that those who were secretly following her would continue to follow her to Linzhou if they didn't notice anything strange about her.

After the person who secretly followed her left, Ke Muqing would naturally secretly give Mrs. Li San something else.

Each family of the exiled prisoners did not interfere with the water of the well and the river, and each enclosed their own land.

The Li family hated the Huang family, so they chose a place far away from the Huang family. The Li family is full of old, young, women and children. Even if someone wants to form a gang, they can't find the Li family.

"Mom, eldest sister-in-law, second sister-in-law!"

Mrs. Li San came trotting all the way with her things in her arms. She was in a much better mood because she had bought a lot of good things.

Mrs. Li was leaning against the tree trunk, chewing the unpalatable steamed buns. When she heard the third daughter-in-law coming, she quickly stood up holding the tree trunk.

After waiting for the people to come over, Mrs. Li said, "Zhizhi, stop calling me mother. If anyone listens to this, it will hurt you."

"There's no one else here, it's okay." Mrs. Li San pushed the things in her arms forward, "Look what I brought here?"

Mrs. Li San handed the dried meat to Old Mrs. Li, "Mom, this is for you and your two sisters-in-law. There are candied haws and sugar candies for the children. Xing'er and I will prepare a meal for you and send it to you tonight. The children can also eat it at night." Meat is served.”

Mrs. Li knew about the supply situation in the county town at the previous stop, and the yamen servants privately cursed her for half the night. Naturally, she also knew that the third daughter-in-law had not bought anything in the county.

She asked, "Where did these things come from?"

"I got it from an aunt who was traveling with us today." Mrs. Li San explained.

"But the one with several children wearing navy blue clothes?" Mrs. Li immediately thought of the carriage that drove all the way in the morning and let them hear the sound of children reading.

When the yamen officer shouted to stop, she also saw several children getting off the carriage holding candied haws in their hands.

There is nothing to buy in the county town, so snacks for these children must have been bought a long time ago.

"It's her. Seeing her kind-hearted face, I boldly stepped forward to strike up a conversation. As soon as I asked, the lady agreed." Mrs. Li San nodded, "It turns out that my mother also knows about her."

"She loves children." Mrs. Li smiled, "Her father is a scholar and is familiar with your Uncle Zhou's family."

Speaking of this, Mrs. Li remembered that this daughter-in-law had never met the Zhou family.

Mrs. Li then added, "We are traveling with Dr. Zhou today. The Zhou family used to have an old relationship with our Li family. You and Uncle Zhou are both kind-hearted people. If you encounter any difficulties on the road, you can go to him." Help, but don’t cause too much trouble to others.”

"I understand, mother." Mrs. Li San agreed.

"Son, don't follow me after you leave this county. Return to Beijing as soon as possible to reunite with your parents. Don't let your parents worry about you. The days outside are getting worse every day, and it's even more unsafe for you as a woman. "

Mrs. Li has been persuading her all the way, but the third daughter-in-law, who used to be the most obedient, has now become the one who least listens to persuasion.

Mrs. Li San did not answer Mrs. Li's words. Instead, she changed the subject and asked about the old affairs of the Li family and the Zhou family.

Yang Sanqing came back with a few children a quarter of an hour before the team set off. He also brought two fat and big hares, which made the children extremely excited.

In the afternoon, Yang Shuangshuang couldn't sit still and chose to play with Yang Chuxue and Yang Chuning. Within two hours, the child went to see the two sisters Ke Baoxuan under the escort of Yang Sanqing.

She bounced around all afternoon and could hear her laughter everywhere.
