A lucky koi fish was found while escaping from famine, and the whole family became prosperous

Chapter 28 Thrilling
As Boss Jiang's voice fell.

The Jiang family members, who usually had light sleep, immediately opened their eyes.

Jiang Lao Er and Lao Si dragged the loaded cart towards the woods.

The fifth brother followed closely with the women and children.

Jiang Laosan also took Xu and hid in the woods with a cart.

Boss Jiang behind him was cleaning up the mess.

After receiving the news, the Pei family members in front packed up their things in an orderly manner and hid in the woods together.

Just hid.

There was a roar coming from not far away.

A group of cavalrymen came running together.

Leading the group was a man in white armor.

The man had a serious face and a murderous aura.

Behind him followed a group of men on horseback, all wearing loose armor.

Soon the man came to the place where the Jiang family was resting.

He stopped his horse in its tracks.

He looked around with cold eyes.

Until his eyes fell on the fire not far away, his pupils suddenly shrank.

run away?

"Everyone! Follow me and keep chasing!"

The man shouted and rode away again on his horse.

A group of cavalrymen followed behind him in a large crowd.

The Jiang family members who were hiding in the dark had never seen such a scene before, and they couldn't help but weaken their legs.

Boss Jiang, on the other hand, had a thoughtful look on his face, as if he could tell that the person in front of him was of some importance.

After thinking about it, he stood up and walked towards the Pei family.

Although he wants to protect the Pei family, he will not put his own family in danger!

Boss Jiang found Mrs. Pei and told her the purpose of his visit.

"Mrs. Pei, those people just now might have bad intentions!"

Mrs. Pei looked calm, as if she had expected this.

After hearing what Boss Jiang said, a slight expression appeared on his calm face.

"To be honest, these people are here to hunt us down!"

When Mrs. Pei said this, she felt extremely bitter in her mouth.

She turned her head to look at Pei Jingnian who had a cold expression on his face. She had thousands of words in her throat but didn't know how to say them out loud.

Pei Jingnian noticed his mother's gaze, turned his head slightly, and raised his bright eyes to look at Mrs. Pei.

"Mom, you don't have to worry about me."

The young boy spoke in a very cold voice and turned his head away again after he finished speaking.

Seeing this, Mrs. Pei just sighed deeply and then said the difficult words.

"My benefactor, it's not that I meant to hide this from you, it's just that this matter is very embarrassing!" Mrs. Pei sighed again, and a layer of sadness appeared on her bright face.

"In fact, the people who chased me two days ago are the same group as this group today. They were all sent by my husband to kill me!"

Madam Pei is the daughter of the Duke of Qin, and her husband is the famous Marquis of Zhenbei.

When the two got married, it caused a sensation in the capital.

But as time goes by, some feelings will inevitably fade.

What Mrs. Pei didn't expect was that the relationship between them would be so weak!
It was so indifferent that the Marquis of Zhenbei cruelly killed her!

The reason why the Marquis of Zhenbei wanted to kill her was that she knew that this man had a mistress behind her back.

The concubine is a woman who comes from a brothel.

If she were a decent girl, she would nod and agree to come in.

But unfortunately, the other party came from a brothel!

Madam Pei felt that the Marquis of Zhenbei was deliberately slapping her in the face.

She immediately asked for a divorce from the man and wanted to take her son back to her parents' home.

Duke Qin retired and returned to his hometown two years ago. The current Duke Qin is her eldest brother, and her father went to her second brother's house.

Her second brother was guarding a nearby city.

The Marquis of Zhenbei disagreed with the divorce, saying that it would damage his reputation.

Mrs. Pei is also a person who cannot tolerate any grain of sand in her eyes, even though she has deep love for Marquis Zhenbei.

She also tolerated herself being at a disadvantage, and she wanted to divorce no matter what.

But the Marquis of Zhenbei refused, so she had to spread the word that she was looking for trouble with his mistress.

Look, the killer is here.

Mrs. Pei felt very ashamed after saying this. "That's what happened, but... I didn't expect this man to be so cruel!"

So cruel...that he doesn't care about his son!

"This matter is rather thorny. If you want to reach the capital safely, you have to do the same as us."

Boss Jiang said it bluntly.

Let the Pei family be like them.

Wearing tattered clothes, and having to walk.

Otherwise, with the Pei family's formation, it would be too conspicuous. Even if they escaped this disaster, they might not be able to escape the rest.

Mrs. Pei looked conflicted when she heard this.

She didn't care. She had followed her father to the battlefield since she was a child and had suffered all kinds of hardships.

Only this son...

It can be said that I grew up in a honey pot.

Mrs. Pei's hesitation was written on her face.

Pei Jingnian, who had remained silent, expressed his opinion.

"Mom, you don't have to worry about me, I can do it!"

The young boy's firm tone made Mrs. Pei's eyes suddenly red.

"Good good!"

Mrs. Pei finally decided to follow Boss Jiang's wishes.

After getting the answer, Boss Jiang turned around and brought over Sister-in-law Jiang Da and Sister-in-law Jiang Er, along with a few sets of old clothes.

After the two came over, they helped the mother and son clean up.

It takes a while.

A lady wearing tattered clothes and with dishevelled hair and a dirty face came out.

Standing next to him was a young boy with a dusty face.

The young boy Pei Jingnian no longer has the high spirits he had when they first met.

In order to better fit the story of fleeing famine, his bright eyes instantly became numb. Only when he looked at Jiang Yunjin, his eyes instantly brightened.

After the two of them had cleaned up, Boss Jiang also asked the Pei family's maid and housekeeper to clean up as well.

According to Boss Jiang, these two people were grandpa and grandmother, and Mrs. Pei became a widow and lived with her parents-in-law with a child.

The word "widow" was requested by Mrs. Pei herself.

She said that her husband was already dead when the other party was about to kill her.

The remaining servants were composed of two parts: the old man and the old lady’s sons, and the other part were members of the same clan.

In order not to attract other people's attention, the word Pei cannot be mentioned.

Finally, the character "Li" was chosen.

He is from the village next to Jiang’s.

Boss Jiang is not afraid of anyone investigating.

After all, their village had long been gone, and several nearby villages were reduced to ashes.

After confirming everything, Boss Jiang took his men to modify the carriage.

Remove all the carriages.

There were five carriages accompanying the Pei family.

After the carriage is unloaded, it becomes a flatbed cart.

After everything was arranged, Boss Jiang came out of the woods with a group of talents.

At that time, a group of refugees happened to pass by here.

The Jiang family, together with the Li family, mixed into the crowd.

No one noticed or cared about the extra people in the crowd.

The group walked slowly forward.

Just when the Li family was about to breathe a sigh of relief.

The familiar sound of horse hooves returned again.

The leader was the man we just saw.

Only this time, the man had a stern face and a hint of anger.

The man rode on horseback and led the cavalry to surround all the refugees.

At this moment, everyone was trembling with fear and huddled together in groups of three or four.

The Jiang and Li families were also not far behind.

They blended in with the refugees around them, all looking trembling with fear.

After the man glanced around, his brows knitted tightly, a hint of displeasure flashed in his eyes, and his thin lips were tightly pursed.

"Have you ever seen a team of luxurious carriages passing by here? If you have, I will let you pass. If you haven't... then you will have to stay alive!"
