After feeding the exiled criminals, she was forced to reveal herself

Chapter 436 The women of the Xie family are really nice

Everyone was silent for a moment, and suddenly started talking.

"I have been observing for a long time, and I think the Xie family's gods really exist! Really."

"I believe it too! I heard that some yamen runners and masters even saw the gods of the Xie family appear with their own eyes."

Someone pulled at his life-saving clothes, looked at everyone seriously, and said, "This kind of clothing material, my family has been running a silk shop for three generations, and I have never seen such a special one. Anyway, I also believe that the Xie family is protected by the true God."

Several people were whispering here, secretly discussing the affairs of the Xie family. There was also a female prisoner with an extroverted personality who took the initiative to come over and talk to the women of the Xie family tonight.

When she was in the exile team, she always felt that the Xie family was numerous and powerful, and they didn't interact much with other people. She felt that even if they were exiled, they would look down on people like them.

Unexpectedly, after several contacts, we were working together again tonight.

The invisible distance between the two sides seemed to disappear in an instant.

It wasn't just the Xie family, even the women of the Chai family, who had rarely shown their faces in front of others along the way, now seemed much more approachable than usual.

The sister-in-law who first spoke to the Xie family saw that the third wife of the Xie family, Shen, was still wrapping the rope around her fingertips while she was resting. She couldn't help but quietly approached and asked curiously, "Third wife Xie, what are you doing?"

Shen heard the noise and looked up: "This?" and picked up the entangled silk thread.

"Ah."

"Tie a knot for mending clothes, which will be strong and durable when you use it later."

"Is it difficult to learn? I can help you?" She said it impulsively, but immediately regretted it. She waved her hands and explained, "No, no, I don't want to steal your skills. I just saw that you were still busy after taking a break, so I wanted to help with some work... Please, don't misunderstand me!"

Shen smiled and gently reached out to hold the woman's slender wrist, which was only bony.

"It's okay. This isn't difficult. If you're not tired, come and I'll do it for you. Just wait and see."

As he said that, he pulled the person over and demonstrated the movements in slow motion in front of the other person.

“See, isn’t it easy?”

Shen's eyes sparkled in the moonlight.

The thin sister-in-law was stunned.

I just thought in my heart that the women of the Xie family are so good.

The Xie family teaches people not to keep secrets.

This makes everyone respect the Xie family even more.

Zhang Dayi sat on the ground, holding Xie Jiarui, the sleeping child of the Xie family, in his arms.

He was one of the few men who stayed with the women. The men in the exile team consisted of the injured and a few elderly people. Zhang Dayi looked around and thought he was still relatively young.

The Xie family was able to keep him with the female members so that he could accompany his mother and the Xie family to escape danger. Zhang Dayi was very grateful to Xie Yuchuan for this arrangement.

He had just been watching from the sidelines, how these weak people, under the leadership of the Xie family, united together with full spirit and worked hard.

Although I watched everyone busying themselves and getting into trouble.

However, the atmosphere of everyone working together made this Hanlin scholar, who had been in the officialdom for a long time and was accustomed to hypocrisy, feel inexplicably moved.

It seemed that some kind of change was quietly spreading among these frail female prisoners.

Guarding the fugitives seemed to be much easier tonight than before.

After filling their stomachs with some food, the team's escort officer Chu Feijian led his men to search around twice to ensure that they could respond in time if any bandits rushed over from behind.

Mrs. Xie had worked hard all night. As she aged, her energy was always different from that of young people. Xie Zhen took out inflatable sleeping bags for Grandmother and Zhang's mother respectively, and chose a place with little wind to let the two elderly people rest first.

Everybody was very tired. Zhang's mother felt embarrassed to occupy the valuables of the Xie family. She looked at her son Zhang Dayi frequently, hoping that he could say something. But how could her son Zhang Dayi, who was holding the little disciple he "picked up" on the way to exile, speak for his mother?

What's more, the Xie family clearly meant well.

Without waiting for the old lady to refuse, Mrs. Xie grabbed the old sister's wrist and they both went to sleep in their sleeping bags.

"Let's take a break first. The sooner we recover, the better it will be for the little ones to recuperate."

After helping her mother-in-law Zhou and her aunt Zhang to finish all the chores, Ruan came to Zhang Dayi and said gratefully, "Thank you for your hard work, sir. Let me do it."

Ruan took her son Ruiger over, wrapped him in a small blanket and took him aside to rest.

Zhang Dayi finally had some free time, so he stood up and relaxed.

"gentlemen?"

A voice came from behind.

Zhang Dayi turned around and saw that it was the manager of the "caravan".

This must be Mr. Han Qiguang's man, he thought to himself.

So he turned around and asked, "But is there something wrong?"

The man nodded and asked Zhang Dayi to step aside and explain in detail.

Chu Feijian brought his men back and saw people from a caravan talking with the exiled Zhang Dayi with their heads down from afar. His eyes flickered a little and his steps slightly shifted to the left. He led the men behind him to check again from the left side of the exile camp.

"Sir, there has been no news from the general and the young master. According to the original plan, we must leave the mountain and go to the city ahead to repair before the hour of Yin." The man calculated the time and said, "If there are no accidents on the way, the team can only stay here for half an hour."

Zhang Dayi nodded, "We are weak in force, so we need to get out first so as not to drag them down."

He turned around and looked at the exhausted people around him. "Everyone has been so tense all the way that it's hard for them to keep running. We need to let everyone rest for a while before we set off. Besides, the cold in the second half of the night will make people weak and prone to acute illnesses. Let's walk slowly."

The man thought for a moment and said, "Sir, please tell the old lady in advance. I will keep the person away and then investigate further."

Zhang Dayi nodded.

After the caravan left, Zhang Dayi walked slowly with his hands behind his back, deep in thought.

Chu Feijian walked around and came back, and was a little surprised to see that he was not sleeping but taking a walk.

"not tired?"

Zhang Dayi looked up and saw that it was the escort Chu Feijian. He smiled and said, "I have something on my mind, so I can't sleep."

Chu Feijian nodded. He was the same.

An old man and a young man stood together, neither of them said much, each thinking about their own things. The only thing in common was that they were both worried about the other team's current situation.

"I don't know if they ran into the robbers over there."

Zhang Dayi glanced at him and said calmly, "Yes."

Chu Feijian silently looked at Zhang Dayi for a long time. He saw that although he had been traveling a long way, there was no sign of fatigue on his face. Instead, he behaved as usual, and seemed confident and calm.

It was different from the calmness on his face and the slight anxiety in his heart.

Chu Feijian thought about it and suddenly asked, "Master Zhang, do you think it will be safe over there?"
