Planning to marry the third master

Chapter 507 Hitting the road

The little beggar led the way, which turned out to be an emergency toilet that stank to high heaven.

Yuan Jinjin wanted to vomit when she smelled it, but she had no choice but to grit her teeth, take her clothes, give the little beggar one or two taels of silver, and go to the toilet to change clothes.

The little beggar took the silver and didn't leave in a hurry. Instead, he wanted to see what the girl looked like in beggar's clothes.

When the man came out, with a fair face and delicate skin, he laughed out loud and said, "It's a weird creature."

Yuan Jinjin asked, "What's different about them?"

The little beggar pointed to his face and his hands.

Yuan Jinjin quickly picked up the dust from the ground and then said, "I was going to do the same thing."

The little beggar asked, "Where is my sister going?"

Yuan Jinjin didn't know where to go. If he found her, she would be given a bowl of medicine. If he didn't find her, she would be free. Xie Fu had taught her a lot, so there was nothing she couldn't survive. She said, "I haven't decided yet. When are you going to leave the city? Otherwise, I'll follow you first."

The little beggar said, "I have to leave the city now. It will be too late if I am late."

As he spoke, he quickened his pace.

The little beggar took a shortcut and Yuan Jinjin followed him. Someone was accompanying her out of the city, so she didn't have time to think too much and just left.

Xie Xinnian thought for a long time, feeling sorry for Yuan Jinjin, thinking it would be better for him to accompany her at this time. He entered her room, but no one was there. He asked the servants, who said that someone had gone to the garden. He then went to walk around the garden, which was so big that it was easy to see. Then he went to Yuan Jinjin's room, but no one was there. He sent someone out to look for her. Someone said that someone had gone out the back door, saying that he was just taking a walk. Xie Xinnian said, "Go out and look for her."

He felt inexplicably nervous, thinking about his aunt's attitude in the past few days, especially the certificate of being a good citizen. He thought of something and turned to feel the box under the bed. She had never hidden anything from him, and she also said that the banknotes were of no use to her, so she put them all in the box. Now he opened it, and it was empty.

At this moment, he didn't know whether to cry or laugh. She chose to keep the child and not him.

A dense and delicate pain wrapped around my heart. It was pain. I felt pain for how a woman like her could survive outside.

That day, all the people from Feiyu Academy were sent out to search for that person.

Yuan Jinjin was panicked when she saw the people from Feiyu Court of the Xie Mansion riding horses and looking for someone everywhere. Fortunately, even if she was right in front of these people, they could not recognize her.

Thinking of this, he walked towards the city gate and followed the little beggar. Fortunately, the guards at the city gate were impatient with refugees and beggars, so they told them to leave without checking.

After leaving Jinling, there is a whole new world. Yuan Jinjin asked the little beggar, "Besides Jinling, is there any place better than Jinling?"

The little beggar shook his head and said, "I followed Grandpa Liu and only went to Lin'an City and Jinlin City. They said it was better than Jinling, but I think they are about the same."

Lin'an?

The little beggar nodded and said, "It takes five or six days to walk."

Yuan Jinjin asked: "Where is the carriage?"

The little beggar shook his head and said, "I don't know."

Lin'an City?

This is one of the few places Yuan Jinjin has heard of. If there is nowhere else to go, then let’s go to Lin’an City.

After walking a few miles, the sun was setting and the gates of Jinling were visibly closing. Yuan Jinjin stopped to take a look and thought, "Goodbye, Xie Xinnian."

There were horses from the Xie Mansion galloping out of the city, and there was also an ox cart among the people driving out of the city. The horses passed by quickly without even looking at her, so Yuan Jinjin boldly waited for the ox cart, with broken silver and copper coins prepared on her body.

When the ox cart came closer, he said, "Brother, can you give me a ride? Here are the copper coins. I'll give them all to you."

Maybe it was because of his pleasant voice, the man driving the ox cart looked behind him and saw a spot for someone, so he asked, "Where are you going?"

"I'm going to Lin'an to seek refuge with my relatives. I can't walk any more now, so I want to ask my elder brother to give me a ride."

The man driving the ox cart said, "I don't know if Lin'an is on the way, so don't go the wrong way, young lady."

Someone in the oxcart said, "I've been there before. It's on the way. Just go to the entrance of our village."

Hearing this, the elder brother Niu Che said, "Okay, two copper coins."

Yuan Jinjin paid the money and still had some money left. Seeing the villagers on the bus reminded her of her hometown and she felt a little familiar with them. She said, "My clothes have been washed, so they don't stink."

Everyone heard this and said, "Come up."

Yuan Jinjin sat at the end.

Say thank you to everyone.

As the ox cart moved, Yuan Jinjin waved to the little beggar.

The little beggar felt that this sister didn't seem to be playing, but was really walking.

Yuan Jinjin asked the old man in the carriage, "Excuse me, I want to go to Lin'an, how can I get there? Do you know any carriage drivers?"

Several people looked at each other, and one of the women couldn't help but say, "Little girl, hiring a carriage is not cheap."

Yuan Jinjin took out two silver coins from her sleeve and said, "This is all I have. I don't know if it's enough. If it's not enough to see my grandfather, I will definitely ask him to give me some more."

The woman was surprised that a beggar actually had small change, and immediately asked, "Girl, where did you get this silver?"

Yuan Jinjin said, "I saved this money by begging these days. You can also go to the Xie family's door to beg and try. I got this luck because I met the second young master of the Xie family."

"Oh, that's amazing."

Someone said, "The Xie family is incomparable to ordinary people. Beggars are smart and they deserve to save money."

The old man who spoke first said, "Aniu, why don't you just earn the silver? Lin'an is not far away, and it would take about six or seven days to go back and forth by ox cart."

Two taels of silver is indeed tempting, but he has never been to Lin'an. He said, "I haven't been there either, so I don't know if it will work."

The old man said, "Ask more questions along the way. Lin'an is not a small place."

The man called Aniu immediately agreed, "Okay, but I need to tell my parents. I don't know if they are willing to hire my ox cart."

Yuan Jinjin immediately said, "It's fine as long as you are willing to go."

"I'll give you a reply tomorrow."

"it is good."

It was getting dark, and Yuan Jinjin also needed a place to stay. She took out the remaining copper coins and said, "Is there any aunt who can take me in for one night? I'll give all these copper coins to her."

Seven copper coins can make do with living in a farmer's house.

The woman said, "Then you can live in my house. It's just a temporary plank in the woodshed. If you don't mind its simplicity, you can live here."

"Thank you, aunt."

A girl couldn't help but ask why she came out alone. She was originally from Yonghe County, which was really a long way away from here. She said, "There was a famine in my hometown and my father asked me to live with my grandmother, but I got separated from him halfway. It was also because I was smart that I saved some money for the journey." She wiped away her tears secretly.

Everyone sighed upon hearing this, fearing that this girl might have been abandoned by her father.

She is a beggar and doesn't look like a bad person, so we should help her if we can.

After returning to the village, Yuan Jinjin followed an aunt. Her family was considered wealthy as it had both old and young people, but there were no extra rooms. She was a beggar and no one was willing to approach her to talk to her.

The aunt gave Yuan Jinjin an old quilt and took her to the woodshed and left her alone.

After paying the money, Yuan Jinjin felt hungry and tired, so she asked for a rest and took a rest.

She thought no one cared about her food, but her aunt brought her a bowl of porridge and a potato, which was considered to be very kind. She quickly said, "Aunt is so nice. She must be a blessed person."

She was kind enough to say something nice, and her aunt said happily, "Eat quickly, I'll collect the dishes later."

"it is good."
