The peasant girl who escaped the desert: she cried when she found the cruel prince

Chapter 23 Preparing to Escape
"There are some people who obviously have great wealth right in front of them, but they have lost it because of their evil deeds. Now my Yuzhang is not something everyone can dream of."

The fat aunt couldn't stand listening anymore: "Oh! I wonder what kind of good relationship the Chen family's Erlang has got? Let's see for ourselves!"

Mother Chen was very proud: "I won't scare you if I tell you. She is a noble girl from Kyoto, and she is not comparable to those little birds that can't fly up the branches."

Chen Yuzhang looked a little embarrassed: "Auntie, what are you talking about if you have nothing to do?"

Jing Li chuckled and said, "Congratulations to Mrs. Chen. Now that your noble daughter has entered the Chen family, she must have also settled the marriage of your dead fat pig!"

Chen Yuzhang was a little angry when he heard this. He was still thinking about renewing his relationship with Jingli, but Jingli's words were so hurtful. How could her parents be willing to accept her again?
Jingli didn't understand Chen Yuzhang's sudden anger, so she took Su and her brother directly into the courtyard, slammed the door, and shut down all Chen Yuzhang's reveries.

Mother Chen angrily picked up the stones and threw them at the Jing family's door: "You little prodigal hoof, I'm just waiting to see what kind of family you can find, huh!"

Chen Yuzhang was a little impatient when he saw Chen's mother's vulgar behavior: "Auntie, what do you do to her? Let's go back early!"

Mother Chen turned back, looked at her son with a look of relief, and said in a loud voice: "Yu Zhang! That Miss Yang is outstanding in talent and beauty, and she is a noble person from Kyoto. She must tidy up the house well when she returns. Let Miss Yang come and take a look!"

Chen Yuzhang became more and more helpless, but the image of Miss Yang, who was noble, full of scholarly talent, appeared in his mind.

It was a coincidence that after the mother and son saw Jingli and Xiao Lianyun leaving in front of the city gate that day, Chen Yuzhang was distracted and called a carriage to hit them.

While Mother Chen was yelling, a gentle voice came from the carriage: "But someone was hurt?"

Without waiting for a reply from the servants outside, Chen Yuzhang saw the person in the car, Rouge, who was as white as jade, gently opened the carriage curtain, and a girl with a gorgeous face poked her head out.

Although Jingli was beautiful, she was still a country girl, and she didn't always dress up well. Chen Yuzhang had never seen such a delicate and delicate girl before, and he immediately looked at her straight.

When the driver saw Chen Yuzhang staring at the girl intently, he whipped his horse whip and cursed: "You scumbag, be careful with your eyes, my girl is not something that a rough person like you can desecrate!"

But the girl drove away the groom and gently comforted Chen Yuzhang: "I'm sorry, sir, the servant is rude, but where is the injury? I will accompany you to the hospital to see the doctor."

Chen Yuzhang came to his senses and hurriedly raised his hands in salute, but the girl chuckled and said: "Looking at you, you must be a student taking the spring exam in the past few days. That's all. I'm staying at Yuelai Inn. If you feel uncomfortable anywhere, remember to come over. Find me."

Later, after Chen Yuzhang passed the exam, he met Miss Yang several times in a restaurant. Miss Yang was not only beautiful, but also extremely talented. She picked up poems, books, articles and classics at will, which made Chen Yuzhang even more admired.

Miss Yang also valued Chen Yuzhang very much, and she felt a bit reluctant to say goodbye when she said goodbye. Mother Chen was extremely satisfied with this.

This is like smoke coming out of the ancestral grave. I never thought that my son would get to know such a precious girl.

Jingli didn't have time to pay attention to the thoughts of the Chen family's mother and son. She had too many things to plan, and something like this happened again today. It was time to have a good discussion with her family in the evening.

As night fell, the Jing family's old house was full of joy. The impatient family members had already come over to congratulate them in advance. The Jing family's old couple and the third and third bedrooms of the Jing family were all beaming with joy. No one remembered the second bedroom of the Jing family anymore.

Jing Li didn't care about all this. She knew the faces of the Jing family very clearly.

At this moment, she was in her house, with a few younger brothers and two elders, starting her first meeting north. "My grandma and my fat aunt may not be aware of the outside situation, but last time Dalang Erlang and I went to the county town together, we can no longer buy polished rice, and the price of millet has risen to almost 300 Wen per liter. Think about it. for how long?"

Lin Dalang and Erlang nodded in unison, and Mrs. Su was stunned: "Why did it rise so fast? If it's going to rise, shouldn't it be after no income is earned this year?"

Jingli patiently analyzed it for Mrs. Su and Fatty Aunt: "It should be so, but now it is different from the peaceful years. The White Lotus Army is becoming more and more powerful. It is said that the White Lotus Army in the south has gathered tens of thousands of refugees, and there are also people here who are responding. .”

"Moreover, the secret bandits are getting more and more rampant. Maybe after they finish robbing the east side, if they don't dare to confront the White Lotus Army, they will have to turn around and rob us."

The fat aunt turned pale with fright: "What should we do? Ah Li, what can you do? Now our two families are like one family. If you have any ideas, just say it and Auntie will listen to you!"

Jing Li nodded, glanced at Mrs. Su and Fat Aunt, and lowered her voice: "So that my mother and aunt will know that I am determined to take our two families to Qinzhou."

The words were so shocking that Mrs. Su and Fatty Aunt, two women who didn't even go to the county town, were instantly shocked out of their minds.

"What are you talking about? Let's go to Qinzhou? Where is Qinzhou?"

For the two women, the pressure to leave their homeland and go to a foreign land was not small, and they really didn't want to take this step unless they had to.

Especially the fat aunt's family, who had fled the famine to Jingjia Village, and finally lived in peace for more than ten years, and now they had to flee the famine again, which made her murmur in her heart.

The fat aunt whispered: "It doesn't mean that our prince is quite generous and not as violent as the King of Hejian. Why is it that he suddenly can't survive?"

Su Shi also followed up and said: "Yes, our prince has been in this land for more than ten years. Apart from the high taxes and the need to build a palace every year, there is nothing big wrong with us. Aren't we living in this world all the time?" Have you been here for more than ten years? Why are you running away now?"

Jing Li broke open the white flour cake on the table: "It is precisely because of this prince's gentle temperament that he is as kind as the white flour cake, which is the big problem!"

Su and the fat aunt were puzzled: "Isn't it a good thing that the prince has a good temper?"

The boys also looked at Jingli with some confusion. They had no choice. They had always worked at sunrise and rested at sunset. They had never known such things as political struggle and territory expansion.

Jingli started to teach a few people: "Fat aunt, do you think my mother-in-law has a good temper?"

The fat aunt glanced at Mrs. Su: "There is no one in these villages who has a better temper than your mother-in-law."

"Then do you think my grandma has ever been more protective of my mother-in-law because of her temperament?"

"."

"Have the sisters-in-law ever been more humble because of my good temper?"

"."
