The Lu family also learned from the official about staying in Weinan Mansion. After suffering for so many days, they wanted to take the opportunity to have a good meal.

Lu Junfeng thought of Cen Yiyi and begged his mother to invite him.

However, Cen Yiyi followed the Qin family and was not treated badly for three meals a day. She did not want to get involved with Lu Junfeng, so she refused and said, "Thank you, third aunt. I have to stay with my grandmother, so I won't go."

Mrs. Lu responded accordingly and said, "Mother, come too. Let your daughter-in-law and the master be filial to you."

Qin's mother really cared about her third son, so she agreed.

Cen Yiyi didn't expect that the banner she was raising would instantly change sides, so she had no choice but to agree with a smile.

After continuing to practice asceticism for half a day, the exile team finally arrived at the gate of Weinan Prefecture.

Flags on the ancient and majestic city walls are flying in the wind, and dusk is coming from all directions.

The officers and soldiers guarding the city gate were wearing armor and carrying long swords at their waists. They stood on both sides of the entrance, expressionlessly checking the customs clearance documents and goods of people entering the city one by one.

Zhong Wei dismounted and handed the escort document to a city guard. After the officer verified that it was correct, he raised his hand to signal for release.

Su Yunwan sat on the donkey cart and observed the shops on both sides of the road.

These shops are two-story structures, with a front store and a backyard. Even though it was almost dusk, there were still many pedestrians coming in and out.

It was worthy of being a large city guarding the capital, and its prosperity exceeded Su Yunwan's expectation.

That's fine, she can have a nice stroll.

After another half an hour, Zhong Wei stopped and told everyone to arrive at the accommodation point.

This is a wooden inn with high eaves. It is located in a remote area and has two floors. The simple plaque has two big characters Bingwu written on it.

The innkeeper heard the commotion and walked out of the inn door. When he saw Zhong Wei and others, he raised a smile and greeted warmly: "Master Zhong, you are leading a team on a long journey again. Come in quickly."

Zhong Wei exchanged a few words with him and then let him speak.

The innkeeper looked at the prisoners in the yard and said in a loud voice: "Everyone, the main room of this inn can accommodate 20 people, and each person can pay five cents. There are also five taels of silver for the Tianzihao suite, three taels for the Dihao, and three taels for the Renzihao. One or two, it’s up to you to choose. Of course, if you don’t have money, you can live in the woodshed and the horse stable.”

After hearing what the store owner said, Su Yunwan immediately raised her hand and said, "We want Tian Zi Hao."

Qin's mother and Mr. Pei were dissatisfied with her decision-making, especially Mr. Pei, who was in charge of the money.

However, Su Yunwan's words were overwhelming and they could live in a better place, so they did not object on the spot and instead discussed with everyone how many rooms they wanted.

"Zi Yuan and I are in the same room." Su Yunwan said again.

As soon as he finished speaking, he was greeted by several meaningful glances.

Su Yunwan:......

She looked at Qin Junyi and saw that he pursed his thin lips, trying hard to suppress the upturned corners of his lips. Under the soft twilight, the thin red under his ears was looming.

Qin's mother thought for a moment and said, "Just three rooms. Except for Brother Yi and his wife, everyone else has one room for men and women."

"But mother, there are so many people, we can't fit in two rooms." Ms. Pei objected politely in a low voice.

"Then let the store send more quilts to make the floor. Our family's money can only go in and out, so we must be more frugal." Qin's mother said, "Compared to the people who live in Datongpu, it is already much better."

Mrs. Pei had no choice but to agree and let her youngest son Qin Junxian go to negotiate with the store.

At the same time, the Chu family had decided on a room with a herringbone name, but it was Mr. Chu, a member of the Chu family's side clan, who seemed to have deliberately asked for a room with a local name one level higher than the herringbone in order to defeat the Chu family.

When the sons and daughters of the Chu family saw that he was obviously rich and wanted his father to subsidize the silver coins to remove the shackles, they also arrogantly despised their father. They were so angry that they clenched their fists and wanted to rush forward to get the silver coins back.

Chu Shao snorted coldly and asked the waiter to lead the way to the guest room.

Those subsidized money should be regarded as family buyout fees.

On the surface, it seems that the Chu family has suffered a loss, but it has gotten rid of the moth and has gained a foothold in the matter of clan division. No one can use this to slander their family.

In a world where reputation is extremely important, Chu Shao is happy to exchange a mere amount of money for his family's peace.

After returning to the guest room, he warned everyone in the Chu family: "Remember, only by sacrificing small gains can you seek long-term benefits. Without the support of our family, they will not be able to survive for long. The one who laughs at the end is the winner. Just wait and see." That’s it.”

On the other side, Su Yunwan followed the waiter's guidance and walked into the Tianzi No. [-] room on the east side of the second floor.

This room is about 30 square meters. What you see when you open the door is a set of red lacquered tables and chairs, with a large screen showing beautiful landscapes in the middle. Going around the screen is a wide bed with several layers of thick mattresses.

Qin Junxian and Qin Junyu worked together to move Qin Junyi to the bed.

Then he went to see the other two rooms to help the women settle down.

Su Yunwan probed Qin Junyi's veins, frowned and said: "The cold air invaded last night, and the road is bumpy again today. Your physical condition is not suitable for taking action."

Qin Junyi didn't want to wait any longer: "Even if you pull out one, it will be good."

Seeing that he was determined, Su Yunwan nodded and said: "I'm going to buy some medicinal materials and tools first. You can't eat or drink for six hours before starting. Let's start in the middle of the night."

"Then it's hard for you. I won't eat dinner." Qin Junyi couldn't bear her staying up late and being tired.

Su Yunwan smiled: "With your body, you can't afford to be lazy. You guys will have dinner first instead of waiting for me to come back."

The two chatted for a few more words, and when they heard the official's call to summon everyone, Su Yunwan walked out of the room.

In the living room on the first floor, Jiang Xiaoliu announced loudly: "We are going out to replenish supplies. If you want to buy things on our behalf, please sign up."

In an instant, many prisoners rushed forward.

"Line up! Come one by one!" Wu Shaohan gave a stern order and worked with other officials to maintain order.

The shopkeeper was writing on the side, and the ink words kept jumping on the paper.

Register, pay, summarize...

After everything was registered and sorted out, Zhong Wei came back from the yamen report. He looked at the list of items to be purchased, ordered a few official servants to go buy them at night, and if there was anything missing, he would make up for it tomorrow morning.

On the Qin family's side, Mrs. Pei took out 300 taels of silver notes from her purse and gave them to Qin Junyu, who was in charge of purchasing. She told him, "The carriage is the most important thing. You have to buy it. Use the remaining money to buy food."

Su Yunwan frowned and reminded: "I heard that the donkey cart is only worth a few taels of silver. After buying three carriages with these silver notes, there will be very little left. We must at least prepare food for a week, otherwise if we run out of food, it will be more expensive to buy it from the official."

"Didn't you collect the medicine? You sold it for money as a subsidy." Mr. Pei only had 500 taels of silver, so 300 taels was already more than half of it, and he was unwilling to give more money.

Su Yunwan sneered: "Even if I sell these medicinal materials, I still have to buy new medicinal materials for Ziyuan to regulate his body. There is still a long way to go. Don't you prepare some commonly used medicines?"

Pei said angrily: "Aren't you familiar with pharmacology? It would be nice to collect more medicinal materials."

"It's quite simple. What kind of medicine do you need, and it will grow beside the exile road waiting for me to pick it?" Su Yunwan mocked.

Mrs. Pei knew she was in the wrong, but said angrily: "Come on, you can just replace the medicine with the medicine. You don't need to worry about the rest. Brother Yu, just do as I say."

"Mom, there are still clothes. I need to buy some more clothes to change." Qin Ruolan reminded anxiously.

Mrs. Pei patted her hand and told her not to worry, and turned to tell everyone: "If you want personal items such as clothes, you can pay for them yourself."

As soon as these words came out, everyone was dumbfounded.
