At dusk, the exile team came to an inn.

The inn is not big and the room is old.

The officials shouted and drove people into the yard and began to assign locations.

"You guys are on the east side of the house. You guys are on the west side of the house."

"What? Sleeping in the open?"

A group of prisoners were shocked, and they were not even given a shabby house?Some people looked up at the sky to see if it would rain at night.

The officer scolded: "Where else do a group of prisoners want to live? If they want to live in a woodshed, they can pay five taels of silver per room."

Ye Linjiang pushed the wheelchair all afternoon, and his whole body seemed to fall apart. He sat down on the stone bed and gasped.

Hearing this, he couldn't sit still, jumped up and shouted: "Woodshed? Five taels of silver? Why don't you just grab it?"

The officer flicked his whip and was about to hit him.

Ye Linjiang hurriedly shrank his neck, hid behind several concubines, and praised loudly: "The woodshed is good, it's spacious, and it's not expensive for five taels of silver."

The whiplash he received at noon was still aching, so how could he dare to take another whip?

Someone from Li Gao's family immediately paid the money and planned to live in the woodshed.

People have to lower their heads when they are under the eaves. It is better to have a shelter from the wind and rain than to live in the yard.

Ye Linjiang also quickly took out five taels of silver and handed it to the official.

The official looked down upon his unkindness and unrighteousness. He threw away his money, put it back in his sleeves and said, "The woodshed is full, so you can only live in the stable."

"A stable? A stable costs five taels of silver?"

Ye Linjiang screamed strangely, but after looking at the whip in the officer's hand, he immediately changed his words: "The stable is good, the stable is more spacious."

You Yong walked up to Ye Weiyun and said in a friendly manner: "Little Marquis, you can stay in a guest room tonight. We won't charge you more, just the original price of the inn, which is five cents of silver per night."

Yan Ruoli thought that she would show Ye Weiyun's legs at night, and it was inconvenient for others to be present, so she asked, "Can we stay in two rooms? We can pay a tael of silver."

As soon as these words came out, almost everyone looked at her with indescribable expressions.

Yan Ruoli realized what they had misunderstood and immediately blushed.

Did these people think that she wanted to live alone with Ye Weiyun for convenience?

Ye Weiyun quickly came to her rescue: "I like to sleep quietly at night, Ruoli is thinking about me."

Cheng Zhilan also said quickly: "Yes, Weiyun is most afraid of noise when sleeping. Feiran and I will disturb him. Ruoli can take care of him alone."

Ye Feiran looked up at his mother and then at his brother, his head filled with questions.

She sleeps very quietly, never snores or turns over. Why do they think she is noisy?

Cheng Zhilan quietly pulled her.

Ye Feiran's eyes fell on Yan Ruoli, and she suddenly woke up, her little face suddenly turned red.

Yan Ruoli wanted to hit her head on the ground, but it was better for mother and son not to explain.

You Yong gave Ye Weiyun an "I understand" look and readily agreed: "As long as you can afford the room fee, you can stay in any number of rooms."

"Two rooms are enough. Fei Ran and I will sleep together. Be more practical." Cheng Zhilan pulled Ye Feiran into her arms.

Ye Feiran leaned in her arms, leaning close to her, nodding her head.

"I want to sleep with my mother."

When her family encounters such a change, she will not be afraid unless she stays with her mother.

Ye Linjiang and Li Gao all saw it in their eyes and dared not speak out in anger.

A phoenix is ​​no better than a chicken. No matter how prosperous they were before, they still have to be controlled by these officials.

Yan Ruoli didn't want to discuss this issue anymore and asked loudly: "Store, can I borrow your kitchen?"

The innkeeper saw that the official was polite to the four members of the Ye family, and said enthusiastically: "Okay, okay. For twenty coppers, you can use whatever firewood and seasonings you like in the kitchen."

Yan Ruoli paid the money to the shopkeeper and said to Cheng Zhilan and Ye Feiran: "Mom, Feiran, you are tired. Go and rest first. I will call you when the meal is ready."

Cheng Zhilan and Ye Feiran didn't know how to cook, so they carried the fabrics on the cart into the guest room, bought scissors and needlework from the shopkeeper, and planned to make a few sets of clothes.

Zheng Tiangang volunteered and said, "Young madam, I will help you. The food I cook is not delicious, but I can chop wood, wash vegetables, and make a fire."

"Okay, thank you."

With so many helpers, Yan Ruoli is naturally happy.

Zheng Tiangang was very happy to be able to help. He chuckled and said, "Young Madam, don't be polite to me."

Yan Ruoli went to the trolley to get some vegetables and prepared to go to the kitchen.

She suddenly felt a little strange. She turned around and saw a young girl looking at her with eyes full of jealousy.

Seeing Yan Ruoli looking over, the girl glared at her fiercely and looked away.

After walking together for a day, Yan Ruoli knew that she was Li Tongshun's daughter Li Shuyao.

Li Shuyao looks about seventeen or eighteen years old. Although she is wearing coarse clothes, she still does not hide her natural beauty.

She is a pretty girl, but I don’t know why she is so hostile to me.

Yan Ruoli searched the memory of the original owner and found nothing.The original owner didn't know Li Shuyao, and they had no old grudges.

So, Li Shuyao is jealous that she can eat delicious food and stay in a guest room?

Not so much.

No matter why, being hated by others made Yan Ruoli a little more wary.

She handed the picked dishes to Zheng Tiangang and said, "Brother Zheng, please take these dishes to the kitchen."

"Okay."

Zheng Tiangang took the food and quickly went to the kitchen.

Yan Ruoli walked up behind Ye Weiyun, held onto the wheelchair, and pushed him toward the kitchen.

"Ye Weiyun, please go and help in the kitchen. There are so many dishes, I'm afraid I won't be able to handle them all."

She thought that if she stayed in the kitchen with Zheng Tiangang alone, it would inevitably cause others to speculate.

Even if they themselves have a clear conscience and can't stop others from gossiping, it's better not to give others room for suspicion.

Ye Weiyun smiled and said, "Okay."

He knew Yan Ruoli's intentions. Even if she didn't notice it, he would take the initiative to go to the kitchen to prevent others from having the opportunity to slander her.

When Yan Ruoli pushed Ye Weiyun into the kitchen, she turned around and took a look, just in time to see Li Shuyao looking away from them.

Her eyes were full of disappointment and anger.

Yan Ruoli was thoughtful and asked, "Ye Weiyun, do you know Li Shuyao?"

Ye Weiyun thought back and said: "I know that Li Tongshun has several children. I have no personal relationship with them, so I don't count them as acquaintances. Maybe we have participated in some banquets and other activities together, but such activities have always been separated between men and women. .”

He paused and then said: "I also noticed that Li Shuyao seems to be hostile to us. Maybe it has something to do with her father being exiled? In short, be careful."

Yan Ruoli really wanted to give Ye Weiyun a thumbs up. He was worthy of being the future villain in the book, with his superb observation and analysis skills.

Talking to him saves trouble.

"I know, I'll pay attention."

Yan Ruoli pushed Ye Weiyun to a quieter place in the kitchen, rolled up her sleeves and planned to cook.

Ye Weiyun stared at her arms as white as the bright moon, with deep eyes, and complained: "Ruoli, your title is wrong."
