After seeing them off, Haoge ran excitedly to Wang Xin's room.

He raised his hand and gestured, which was the gesture that the brother and sister agreed to use to enter the space.

Wang Xin closed the door and quickly pulled him into the space.

As soon as he entered the space, Hao Ge'er took out the silver bills from his pocket and excitedly shouted "Ahhh..."

He shouted, jumped, and spun around with his sister to express his joy.

How can he still act like a little adult in front of outsiders?

Wang Xin felt dizzy after he turned around, so she raised her hand and tapped him lightly on the forehead, prompting him to stop.

Haoge scratched his head embarrassedly and grinned foolishly.

Is he stupid because of the silver bill?

Wang Xin asked jokingly: "How much did you earn? Look how happy you are!"

Hao Ge'er handed the banknote to his sister and said, "This is six hundred taels more than we expected last night!"

Wang Xin was not too surprised.

Given that hotpot was popular all over the country in the past, Zuixianlou would be able to make back its investment quickly and they would not be at a loss.

Wang Xin touched the dragon-patterned jade pendant in her arms. Considering their current situation, Zuixianlou could offer this price, which showed that the person behind the scenes was quite honest.

But no matter how kind he is, he is not someone I can afford to offend right now.

His opponent is the enemy who killed the original owner's father!

Having such a ferocious opponent must be a big trouble in itself.

From now on, try to stay away from them!

But things don't always go as planned.

At this time, Wang Xin did not expect that they would meet soon.

Wang Xin secretly decided that unless it was a matter of life and death, he would never reveal anything about the space.

She took the banknotes, pulled one out, and handed it to Hao Ge'er with a smile: "This is a reward for you."

Haoge's eyes lit up, he took it and touched it for a while without letting it go.

Then he handed it back to Wang Xin: "I'm still young, sister, keep it for me first."

The two of them took inventory of their family assets. Excluding the system startup capital, they now had a total of 2,156 taels and 3 qian of silver.

For a family like theirs, this is a huge sum of money.

The two men took out a few taels of silver to use on the road, and put the rest into the space.

Space is really a magic tool for home travel!

Is there any safer place to keep the banknotes?

After everything was ready, the two went to see Xue Cuo together and changed his medicine.

I don’t know if it’s because the medicine is too effective, or because Xue Cuo is young and has good recovery abilities?

Wang Xin saw that the wounds on his thin bamboo-like body, which were so shocking yesterday, were almost all scabbed over today.

After applying the medicine, Wang Xin asked Li Po to prepare dinner only for her and Xue Cuo, as she and Hao Ge'er would not eat tonight.

The excuse given was that I ate too much at noon.

The fact is: Hao Ge'er pestered her and insisted on trying the barbecue she mentioned last night!

I remember when Hao Ge'er mentioned barbecue just now, he looked fascinated and his saliva was almost flowing out.

Wang Xin was speechless about this foodie brother...

There's nothing I can do, after all he is my brother!

Be pampered!

He told them to rest early after eating and set off early tomorrow morning.

He was pulled back to the room by the anxious Hao Ge'er.

Needless to say, after yesterday's hot pot, Haoge fell hopelessly in love with "barbecue".

Before going to bed, Hao Ge'er was lying on the bed, still savoring the memory...

My sister is so nice to him!

Not only did they grill mutton skewers for him, they also grilled potato chips, straw mushrooms, green peppers...

Thinking of roasted green peppers, Haoge's little brows subconsciously frowned, but soon relaxed again. Although it was spicy, it was so delicious that he still wanted to eat it. What should he do?

Eating it will hurt your mouth because of the spiciness, but not eating it will hurt your heart even more!

Silent all night.

On an autumn morning, when the rising sun casts its first ray of sunshine into the courtyard.

An ox cart slowly drove out of the yard and started its new journey...

Wang Xin and Hao Ge'er sat on both sides of the carriage, sticking their heads out of the windows and waving goodbye to Liu Niangzi and her daughter, Aunt Zhao and Hu Zi who had come to see them off early in the morning.

Hu Zi's eyes were filled with tears as he ran after the ox cart.

Hao Ge'er also raised his little hand to wipe his tears, and choked up and shouted: "Brother Huzi, go back! If you are late for the academy, you will be spanked!"

Hu Zi's little body, which was still rushing forward, suddenly froze and stopped.

Got it!

He forgot about going to college today.

The ox cart turned the corner and quickly left the city amid the shouting of Mrs. Li.

As far as Wang Xin can remember, except for last year, when he heard his father say that he was going to Changshou Mountain, eighty miles east of the city, to collect a rare medicinal herb, he pestered and followed him on the long journey and has never left Liangcheng since then.

Because Hao Ge was young, he had never gone out even once.

So as soon as they left the city, Wang Xin simply knelt on the seat and leaned against the car window to look out.

Haoge followed suit and lay down in front of the other car window, with one or two deliberately suppressed exclamations coming from his little mouth from time to time.

On the contrary, Xue Cuo was not interested in these things and offered to look after the sleeping Xiao Geer.

Not far out of the city, the ox cart passed by a golden rice field. The breeze blew, and the heavy rice ears swayed gently.

Farmers are standing scattered in the rice fields, holding sickles, bending down skillfully to cut bunches of rice ears, busy in this golden ocean.

Occasionally, you can see a few children, picking up fallen rice ears in the fields, or running and playing on the ridges, adding a bit of joy to this harvest season.

In the middle, we passed a small town, four or five villages, and several bamboo forests.

Because the ox cart was slow, the group missed their destination at noon and stopped under a big tree on the side of the road to rest for a while.

Occasionally, pedestrians would pass by in a hurry, and occasionally, you could see the creaking sound of donkey or ox carts turning into the fields.

Everything is so different from the previous life.

Mrs. Li seized the opportunity and squeezed out another half bucket of milk.

I carried it to a nearby farmer’s house and boiled the rest on her stove at the cost of two bowls of milk.

I fed Xiaogeer half a bowl first.

For the rest, the few of them simply filled their stomachs with the dry food they had prepared early in the morning.

After feeding the cows some more grass and taking a short rest, we continued on our journey.

Maybe it was because he was sleepy after eating, or maybe it was because the ox cart had a rhythmic feel when it moved, making people dizzy.

In the afternoon, neither of them had the interest to continue leaning on the car window to watch, and they soon fell asleep on the seats.

When Wang Xin woke up again, it was almost the evening hour.

I felt a little uncomfortable, my head was a little dizzy, and my body was a little stiff, especially my waist and neck. It should be the discomfort caused by maintaining the same posture for a long time.

On the opposite seat, Hao Ge'er had woken up at some point and was teasing Xiao Ge'er with Xue Cuo.

Wang Xin stretched lazily.

Hao Ge'er was very observant and immediately came over with his little fist raised, pretending to give her a shoulder massage.

Wang Xin smiled and let him hit her a few times.

She tapped his little nose with her fingertips: "That's enough, little clever boy."

He stood up, opened the front window, and asked Mrs. Li, "Aunt Li, how far is it to Changshou County?"

Mrs. Li replied respectfully, "Not far away, we will be there in half a cup of tea."

Sure enough, as they were talking, the outline of a city wall vaguely appeared in the distance.

As it is close to the border town, the city walls here are usually built tall and solid, and Changshou County is no exception.

In the reflection of the setting sun, looking from afar, there is a solemn and magnificent beauty.

Soon, the ox cart arrived at the city gate.

On the city wall, three large vermilion characters "Changshou County" shine brightly in the twilight.
