Chapter 8 Out of the City
Su Nanxing walked out of the alley and saw her mother being pestered by her third aunt Hou Shulan.

The mother's expression was full of resistance.

The third aunt was followed by their family and dozens of refugees in tattered clothes.

The third aunt has three sons, only about six or seven years old, and the eldest is only 12 years old.

But it was her eldest son who was taking the lead and wanted to get into the carriage.

Gu Huaishu had no choice but to squat at the door of the carriage.

He was already tall, so even three children couldn't get up.

But Su's mother, who was sitting outside the carriage, was pestered by Hou Shulan.

Those people are all citizens of Dingcheng.

When their family was driven to the city gate and exiled, the whole city knew about it.

Now, when Hou Shulan said these words in front of everyone, she was actually threatening Su Nanxing and the others.

Su Nanxing didn't believe that all of these dozens of people would be tight-lipped. There would always be a few who would leak the news and cause trouble for themselves.

Hou Shulan is a really smart woman, but she is too smart and a little selfish.

In the memory of the original owner, the other party is such a person.

The other party was also very capable. He rushed from Dingcheng to Yuncheng so quickly and seemed to have become the boss of the team.

Behind the team were not only carts, but also some scattered supplies.

Su Nanxing immediately stepped forward and pushed Hou Shulan hard, "Who are you and why are you harassing my mother!"

Suddenly a person appeared from the side. Hou Shulan was not prepared and fell into the dirty muddy water.

She was not angry, but said excitedly: "It is indeed you Su Nanxing!"

The third uncle also came over and cried hypocritically: "Sister-in-law, you don't know how hard we have been and how many times we have been hungry during this time."

"Yes, Nan Xing. I see your carriage is quite new. How do you have money? Where did you get it? Your family shouldn't be exiled in southern Xinjiang. Why are you here?"

Hou Shulan has many questions she wants to understand.

But her eldest son was spitting at Su Nanxing, "You bad woman! How could you push my mother!"

The two younger ones also tried to rush over and beat Su Nanxing.

At present, there are waves of officers and soldiers patrolling the main street. Su Nanxing does not want to cause trouble, but just wants to leave Yuncheng as soon as possible.

Facing the two children, she just dodged slightly and avoided them.

"I don't know who you are. Our family is all natives of Yuncheng. I really don't know what your purpose is in slandering you like this."

Sunanxing's momentum did not diminish, but became even stronger.

Seeing how confident she was, Hou Shulan actually began to waver in her heart.

Did I really recognize the wrong person?

Moreover, how capable are those three women and one fool, how capable they are of escaping the escort of several officers and soldiers?
Her tone immediately changed, "Maybe I really made a mistake. Girl, I see you have such a big bag, are you going to travel far away?"

Su Nanxing originally wanted to find the other party troublesome, but seeing that the other party came to die like this, she suddenly had an idea.

Her father will be successfully framed, and the Su family clan has contributed a lot. She will not let any of these people go!
"Yes, the rain has been non-stop, and many places in Yuncheng have been flooded. My yard is low and my house has turned into a pool. I'm afraid I can't stay in Yuncheng any longer, so I thought about finding someone in Licheng. Grandfather’s house.”

"What a coincidence. I am also going to Licheng on this trip. How about we go together and have a companion along the way."

Hou Shulan made her own decision.

Someone in the team immediately said dissatisfiedly: "You woman, how can you go back on your promise? Didn't you say you would rest in Yuncheng?"

"If you behave like this, return all the silver and food we gave you."

"That's right, come back quickly!"

Hou Shulan said disdainfully: "Just pay it back. Don't regret it when the time comes."

The girl she met now looked like a noble person.

Wait until she gets to know each other on the road.

As soon as he arrived in Licheng, he begged the other party to give him a bite of food, and then asked the other party to give him a place to live.

Then all of this happened naturally, didn’t it?

Therefore, the fewer people on the road, the better, lest anyone notice and imitate me when the time comes.She enjoys having fewer competitors.

Just that way.

There were dozens of people in the team just now, but now, including the third uncle and his family, there are only seventeen people left.

Su Nanxing didn't care what Hou Shulan was doing.

After confirming that there was nothing wrong with Su's mother and Gu Huaishu, he took out a piece of candy from his arms to comfort the frightened Su Xinxing.

Then he set off directly to the east city gate.

Hou Shulan was very anxious when she saw this.

After hastily dividing the items, I only took a few things and hurriedly asked my husband and children to follow me, without even asking for a cart.

All the way to the city gate, this time someone asked Sunanxing and the others for their household registration and road guidance.

They just have a road guide, but they don't have a household registration.

The criminal's household registration will be captured wherever he goes.

But fortunately, there were many contract household registrations for servants in the Su Mansion. She took out one at random, added a road guide, and named her to go to Licheng to work for her master.

The soldiers did not let them go.

"The prefect has ordered that everyone entering and exiting Yuncheng now needs to pay one tael of silver. There are 21 people in your group and you need to pay 21 taels of silver."

Su Nanxing looked stunned and said, "Master, you are mistaken. I am just walking on the same path as them, not the same people. Besides, I only have five taels of silver on me."

As she said this, she only took out four taels of broken silver.

The rest she put into the sachet.

The soldiers did not leave them alone and asked them to leave the city quickly.

Hou Shulan saw clearly from behind, and her eyes widened instantly, "No, what do you mean? The carriage is full, but you can't even get out any money. Are you not a liar?"

Her voice was loud and attracted many people to watch.

Many people looked here and pointed.

Su Nanxing ignored him and went straight out of the city gate.

If Hou Shulan really doesn't have the money to leave this city gate, or doesn't want to plot against herself, she can just assume that the other party is lucky, and she will come back for revenge if she has the opportunity in the future.

It's a pity that the other party seems to be eager to find fault.

Seeing her like this, the soldier guessed that she had no money, so he drew his sword from his waist and drove her away.

“Don’t leave the city if you don’t have money!”

"The rest of the people are waiting to leave quickly. Don't delay those who are leaving the city behind."

Hou Shulan gritted her teeth, "If any of you want to go out, you have to pay for it yourself. I don't have that much money."

As she spoke, she took out the silver from the sole of her shoe and handed it to the soldier.

The soldier was very disgusted and said, "Hey, you are such a stupid woman! How disgusting."

When did Hou Shulan say this?
Suddenly blushing with embarrassment, he pulled his third uncle and three children out of the city gate in a hurry.

Seven refugees gritted their teeth when they saw this, took out the money, and followed Hou Shulan's footsteps.

As soon as they left the city, Hou Shulan quickly ran over to find Su Nanxing, "You are a real person. If you are willing to help, why should I lose such a big face?"

Su Nanxing lifted the curtain and looked at the woman outside the carriage who was drenched in rain but could not hide her anger.

It is estimated that all the rain falling on the other party evaporated directly.

She said in a calm tone: "Since when have I become familiar with you? Why should I help you pay? Don't forget that you just slandered me on the street."

After she finished speaking, she lowered the curtain again.

Hou Shulan was walking outside, her face turned redder and seemed to be still dark.

When had she ever been so embarrassed in front of everyone?

Who is the other party?

Why is it exactly the same as Su Nanxing’s voice!
And ever since she met him, she has been unlucky!
Hou Shulan followed the carriage, her long armor sinking into her flesh, and secretly swore that when she waited in Licheng, she would squeeze out this proud woman no matter what method she used!
Then take the house of her maternal grandfather’s family as her own!
