Dressed as an old woman, I carry the system and my son to escape the famine

Seeing that the rumors were getting worse and worse, and it was not an option to continue like this, Ling Hui once again took the initiative to come to the door.

Due to the seriousness of the matter, he stopped beating around the bush and directly explained his purpose.

"Yao Shu, you all know the rumors outside. Collaboration with the enemy and treason is a serious crime. Now you are finally getting better. If you fail because of the rumors brought by Shen Bei, then all your hard work will be in vain."

Yao Shu didn't understand such a simple truth, but her son's plan must not be known to outsiders, but she still believed the people in front of her.

After pursing her lips and confirming that no one was outside, she spoke in a low voice and told her son's thoughts.

"That's the way it is. I can't guarantee whether he can get any useful information. It's just that he has the heart and I want him to try."

Hearing this, Ling Hui was dubious: "Is what you said true? Don't be fooled by him."

Yao Shu helplessly held her forehead and explained patiently: "I will go back first. When he comes back, I will personally take him to visit him. By then, he will be able to prove my words."

For now, that's the best answer.

Ling Hui lifted his legs and walked out, but he still turned back to give instructions from time to time.

"You must remember that after he comes back, you come to me, otherwise even with the friendship between our two families, I will not be able to extinguish the anger of the people outside."

"I understand, don't worry."

It took a lot of effort to send Ling Hui away, and Yao Shu sat in the room waiting uneasily.

She opened the door and took a look outside from time to time.

But every time I don’t see the figure I want to see, I inevitably feel a little disappointed.

As night falls, the surroundings are pitch dark, with only the newly lit lamp shining faintly in the dark night.

She couldn't wait any longer. She originally wanted to go out and look for it herself, but she didn't expect that a tall figure had already appeared at the door.

When she saw it, she breathed a long sigh of relief, hurriedly greeted him, and even looked out when closing the door.

"Why are you coming back now?"

Shen Bei remembered to dust himself off and smiled heartily: "Mom, I got a lot of news today, so I was delayed on the road. What's wrong with you?"

While he was happy, he also discovered something was wrong with his mother today.

At first, he thought it was his mother's worry.

"Don't worry, I can take care of myself alone. You don't have to wait for me next time it's so late."

Yao Shu sighed and pulled him into the house before talking about what happened during the day.

"Uncle Ling came here to ask you to think of ways to quell the rumors outside."

That was it. Shen Bei helped her sit on the chair and comforted her softly: "Mom, people outside can just say whatever they want. Go ahead. As long as you can trust me, nothing else matters."

Yao Shu was helpless. Her son didn't care about the comments of those outside. Although it was a good thing, if he continued like this, sooner or later he would attract the attention of others.

After thinking about it, she said earnestly: "Son, sometimes you can kill a person. Furthermore, your plan may also encounter resistance."

Her words were so clear that Shen Bei was not a fool and he immediately began to think seriously.

"In this way, let's go to Uncle Ling and explain things clearly. I can also tell him the news I got today and make him feel more at ease. He should be able to help us later."

His plan was exactly what she wanted. Taking advantage of the good night, Yao Shu hurriedly took her son out.

Sitting in the carriage, she gave many instructions, you know, don't tell others casually, otherwise, it will easily lead to death.

"Mom, just rest assured that the child can handle the things at hand by himself, and he will no longer be the child who made you worry about everything before."

He mentioned this, and Yao Shu nodded slowly; "Just be aware of everything."

While the two were talking, they arrived at Ling's Mansion. It seemed that the people inside had been waiting for a long time, and they were taken in as soon as they got off the carriage.

When Ling Hui saw them in the study, he finally couldn't hold back his questions.

"Shen Bei, tell me what's going on? Those rumors are definitely not groundless."

Shen Bei took the initiative to explain everything clearly: "Uncle Ling, that's about it. This junior has nothing to hide."

After receiving a positive answer, Ling Hui was finally able to let go of his hanging heart.

He reached out and patted Shen Bei's shoulder, casually wiping the cold sweat on his forehead.

"Only you dare to do such a thing. If those people find out, they will definitely not give you good results."

Shen Bei patted his chest, feeling a little proud: "Uncle Ling, look at me and I will definitely make all those people get the retribution they deserve."

"It's a good thing to have such thoughts. It proves that you are patriotic. However, the Huns have always been treacherous. Are you sure you haven't been discovered by them?"

After saying this, Shen Bei thought for a moment and gave an affirmative answer.

"Definitely not. The news I got this time is the evidence. I also ask Uncle Ling to help my family later. I will never forget his kindness in the future."

One sentence made Ling Hui laugh uncontrollably.

"What are you talking about? Based on the friendship between you and my family, I should help your family. No need to say these polite words. Since you already have a plan in your mind and have proved the feasibility of this plan with your own actions, Then I won’t stop you. Remember, you must ensure your own safety outside.”

"must."

Seeing that the tension between the two gradually resolved, Yao Shu felt relieved.

Now that what they have done is clear, they will no longer be afraid no matter how many rumors there are in the future.

Thinking that the two people beside her had almost finished talking, she and her son returned home as quickly as possible.

However, as soon as he returned home, Shen Bei went to his house to pack a lot of things and walked out again.

Seeing this, her eyebrows twitched slightly, and she always had a bad feeling.

Sure enough, this hunch was quickly verified.

"Where are you going? You're already back, why are you still going out so late?"

Shen Bei crossed the threshold without looking back.

"Mom, this matter is not finished yet. I have to rush back overnight, otherwise it is very likely to arouse suspicion."

Seeing this, Yao Shu couldn't tell whether she felt distressed or worried. She could only stand at the door, watching his retreating figure and say goodbye.

"Safe travels."

"Okay, mother, go back quickly."

When the figure completely disappeared into the night, she turned around and closed the door and went back to her house.

Just as he entered, he heard a question.

"It's already so late, why did you come back?"

Thinking of what her son had done, Yao Shu remained calm: "I just looked at the restaurant's accounts, and it was a little late."
