Mo Yanliang

Chapter 64

According to Yan Jingshen's meaning, the Jing family's old house and the field must be sold together to be clean.

It can not only reduce worries, but also make the play appear more realistic, so as not to be continued to be black hands.

But he had to take into account his mother's feelings.

After all, she is a real ancient woman. To her, the old house is not only a house, but also the foundation of the Jing family, which must not be lost.

So Uncle Gao was willing to continue guarding the old house, which was considered a favor to him.

But he still kept his eyes open and did not say the purpose of their trip.

Lincheng is not too big, and it is also a shelter for tens of thousands of people.

Except for people who live in the same alley, such as Uncle Zhu who sells groceries at a stall, no one cares about how many people are missing in the city.

But this time Yan Jingshen was extra cautious, not only raising his vigilance, but even erasing the traces left along the way in time.

Half a month later, the three arrived in Xiucheng smoothly.

Compared to when I left last time, everything in Xiucheng remains the same except that the scenery has changed with the seasons.

Although Yan Jingshen came here once before, he didn't even enter the city gate at that time, so he went to Banchi Villa with Chief Steward Wei Jian.

At that time, he never imagined that he would revisit the old place so soon, and even moved his family here.

The law and order in Xiucheng is very good, but Li Shi and Du Juan are both women, so living outside the city is still worrying.

Moreover, life in the city is convenient, and the large population is also conducive to hiding. There are too many benefits.

The three of them entered the city, found a real estate agent, and soon bought a house in the west of the city that was much smaller than the Jing family's old house.

Seeing their son pay such a large sum of money, Li Shi and Du Juan were secretly speechless.

Xiucheng is a good place, with flat terrain and beautiful scenery, even the people who live here seem very friendly, and their accent is not as rigid as the people in Lincheng.

But when it comes to buying and selling and money, everyone is very shrewd.

Such a small house is worth tens of taels of silver in Lincheng, but they dared to ask for 100 taels, and they did not accept counter-offering.

The smiling tiger is even more ruthless when it eats people!

Fortunately, this small house has just been renovated, and it looks very clean and tidy. After simply buying a few pieces of furniture, it already looks like a home.

After closing the door, the three of them could finally sit down and take a breath.

Mrs. Li looked around and sighed, "Shen'er, 120 taels of silver is gone just like that."

Du Juan also said: "I just passed by those small stalls, I paid special attention to the prices, almost everything is more expensive than Lincheng."

Yan Jingshen was amused by the two of them.

"Mother, cousin, Xiucheng is a prosperous place, and its population is several times that of Lincheng.

It is easier for people to earn money, and the cost of living must be higher.

Don't worry, our family's life will only get better and better, and it will not be worse than other families. "

After his son said that, it was hard for Mrs. Li to continue complaining.

"Shen'er, go outside and see if there is any ready-made food to buy, and you have to clean up the house after eating.

According to Yan Jingshen, he went to the small restaurant at the street corner to buy some food, along with some pots and pans, rice noodles and vegetables.

After the meal, the three of them worked hard for more than an hour, and finally cleaned up everything inside and out before dark.

After resting for two or three days, Yan Jingshen was worried that his mother's lingering poison was not cleared, so he went to Banchi Villa at night.

Because of Xia Yueliang's absence, Wei Jian didn't add any more guards, and the villa seemed extraordinarily quiet.

But Yan Jingshen still didn't dare to be careless, sneaked in from the back mountain very carefully, and found the exit of the secret path.

He found the place where Bixuedan grew up along the secret path, and he was secretly happy.

At this time, it was late autumn, and many vegetation had begun to decline, but the elixir was still green and fresh as recorded in the book.

He carefully pulled out a few clumps, carefully restored the soil to its original state, and left the villa without a sound.

At this time, the gate of the city had already been closed, and he didn't intend to stay in the hotel, so he simply found a sheltered place outside the city for the night.

He thought he could fall asleep quickly, but with too many things in his mind, his head was more awake than during the day.

In the era I lived in the past, 16 years old was the age for entering high school, and there was no need to worry about other things except for studying well.

But here is different, 16-year-olds have to learn to take responsibility.

Especially in the absence of father and brother, they not only have to support themselves, but also support a family.

It was too late to go back to Shuocheng at this time, but he couldn't do what he told his mother that day, if he couldn't do it this year, there would be next year.

Some things cannot be delayed. If you can't keep up with one step, you can't keep up with each step.

Since I can't go to Shuocheng, I will go to Fengcheng according to the master's wishes.

Fengcheng is thousands of miles away, compared to Lincheng, but Xiucheng is different.

At his speed, it would only take four or five days for a trip.

Whether Governor Wu can do it or not, we have to go and see first.

There is also the old woman's entrustment, since she has promised to help, she must not break her promise.

That's it!
When his mother's body fully recovered, he set off for Fengcheng.

Yan Jingshen changed his posture, feeling his heart finally settled down, and soon fell asleep.

Early the next morning, he followed the small businessmen into the city.

Back home, neither Li Shi nor Du Juan got up.

Yan Jingshen went back to his room to wash and change clothes, and took some money to go to the pharmacy.

Just as he was about to go out, Mrs. Li called out behind him: "Shen'er, where are you going early in the morning?"

He walked up to Mrs. Li and said with a smile, "I want to go to the pharmacy. The remaining poison on your body is not cleared, and you have to take the antidote a few more times."

"Didn't you say that there is still something to be blind..."

"I went to get the medicine last night, and I can make the antidote when I get back from the medicine later."

Li stroked his cheek distressedly: "You child...you didn't tell mother about such a big thing, did you not sleep all night?"

Yan Jingshen smiled and said, "It's not as serious as mother thought. I stayed in a small shop outside the city for one night and slept pretty well."

"Then mother is going to make breakfast, you have to grab the medicine and come back quickly."

Xiucheng's commerce is extremely developed, and there are several large-scale pharmacies not far from home.

In less than a quarter of an hour, Yan Jingshen came back after grabbing the medicine.

Mrs. Li knew her son too well, and knew that he would not be able to stay at home.

She made porridge for Yan Jingshen all night, and made him a biscuit, and asked, "Are you planning to go out again?"

Yan Jingshen said: "I'm a young man, I can't be like a big girl and stay at home all day long."

"My mother is not trying to stop you, but I just want to ask about your plan, do you still want to go to Shuocheng?"

Yan Jingshen shook his head: "I won't go, my son plans to listen to the master and go to Fengcheng to find that Governor Wu."

"Fengcheng?" Mrs. Li thought for a while, "Is that place bordering the Kingdom of Night?"

Yan Jingshen joked, "I didn't expect Mother to know geography."

"Mother, how much knowledge does a woman and Taoist family have? Your father went to Fengcheng a few times as a escort before, so he only knows a little bit."
