Qin Zhongyue detoxified the man's two horses, and the man directly gave him two silver notes worth one hundred taels.

The price is OK.

But in the eyes of everyone, this money is too easy to make!

But everyone knows that this is Qin Zhongyue's ability, and she deserves this job.

The Qin family just thought so just now. When they remembered that those herbs were found by Qin Zhongyue himself in the mountains and dug them up after climbing high and taking risks, they felt that two thousand taels were not expensive.

Soon the government officials arrived, and Qin Zhongyue asked Ma Liang to watch over it. After all, her horses almost got poisoned as well. If they were not picky about food, they would have definitely drunk the poisonous water.

Just because she didn’t know if her horse was poisoned, didn’t mean she could just pretend nothing happened if it wasn’t poisoned.

The results were soon revealed from the investigation. It turned out that it was the family that made the loudest noise and looked down on others. It was a show they directed and acted out themselves.

Their horse fell ill on the way and was about to get worse, so they made up a story of poisoning and blamed it on others.

In fact, it is just to extort money!

The horses of several of their families were implicated, and only the four horses of the Qin family escaped.

However, the system said that the tonic they had just drunk still had a lasting effect, so even if they were poisoned, they would not be as serious as those horses, and they would slowly detoxify themselves.

So naturally the inn didn't have to pay any more compensation, and it was the ones who shot themselves in the foot who had to compensate for their losses.

The shopkeeper came to apologize to the families in Arima. After all, it was this inn that was implicated and everyone was in trouble. In order to show his sincerity, the shopkeeper directly waived all their room fees, which was considered full of sincerity.

This was just an episode for the Qin and Fang families, and they got the accommodation for free.

Before going to bed, Jiang asked Ma Liang and Qin Dafu to skin the roe deer and hares that the guards had hunted. They should process the meat that night while it was still fresh. It would be better if it could be processed into semi-finished products. Even if it was cold, it would not be so good if left until the next morning.

Now we have a place to stay and we don’t have to go to bed so early. We can just make it and heat it up when we eat tomorrow.

The whole family worked together to wash, cut, and heat the oil in the wok. They worked very well together and moved quickly with more people.

Mother Que also joined in the fun. When these things were ready for the Qin family to eat, they would definitely be given to them. She certainly would not stand idly by.

Putting all that aside, she got along well with Jiang, so she had to help.

Su Luoqing likes eating beef jerky very much. This roe deer is not small. Apart from the two meals they will have on the road tomorrow, there are still two hind leg meats left, so Jiang wants to roast them into jerky.

Since she didn't have to drive the carriage, she planned to stay up all night baking.

How could Qin Zhongyue let his mother stay up late at her age? Even Su Luoqing disagreed. So Qin Zhongyue asked her to stir-fry the food. Liu Po ​​took over and did it until late at night. Their courtyard was filled with fragrance all night long.

The next morning, we waited for the two pregnant women to wake up naturally and have breakfast before leaving.

The next section of the road was very difficult to walk on, it was a bit bumpy and the walk was slow. Fortunately, the two pregnant women were well taken care of by Qin Zhongyue and did not show any discomfort. However, no one dared to be careless and tried to stay in the town's inn or post station before dark.

Because of the presence of the official Fang Weichen, all the Qin family members could take advantage of this and go to the post station to rest.

After walking and stopping along the way for five days, they met Li Hong and Zheng who had been waiting all the way in Ruzhou City.

When Li Hong and Zheng had just left Lingzhu, they received a letter from the Qin family. They were so happy that they wanted to go back and wait to leave with the Qin family.

But he was summoned back by the emperor himself, who sent people to pick him up, so he could not follow their temper.

The person who came to pick them up turned a blind eye and walked slowly on purpose. Li Hong and Zheng naturally knew about it and were very grateful.

Finally they met, and everyone was very happy.

Of course, we found an inn with a yard for the night. If there are many people, staying in a small yard can save money and is convenient for everything.

"Master and Madam, please take a seat. Have some tea and some dried meat to fill your stomach."

As an apprentice, Qin Sixi should take care of his master and his mistress personally.

Qin Zhongyue checked the two's pulse first. When they were in the village, they often went to Qin's house for dinner. The food in Qin's house was a bit special. Their health was much better than before, and many hidden diseases were gone. They didn't rush along the way, so it was pretty good.

"Okay, your wife, I'm in good health.

Thank you for your hard work, Xiaoyueer. It is also thanks to Xiaoyueer that we two old bones are in good health now."

Zheng said this and rolled up her sleeves and went to help Jiang with cooking and chores.

When two old sisters meet, everyone stands aside.

Qin Sixi also helped to entertain the two people who came to pick up the guests. Although they were in casual clothes, one could tell at a glance that the youngest of them should be a captain of a thousand men, and their aura was different.

"Brother Wang and Brother You, please have some tea. It's inconvenient to just drink on the way."

Wang Peng and You Gu saw that Li Hong was so close to this family, and that Fang Weichen and Que also had such a good relationship with the Qin family, so they did not look down on the Qin family.

Although the Qin family is now a nothing, they were able to return to Beijing with the Li family and the Fang family. With such connections, they would definitely not be unknown after returning. They were very polite and had a good chat with Qin Sixi and Qin Dafu.

The two men were surprised again when they saw the guard. They learned that the wild goats and wild boars they were skinning were all hunted by the guard himself. The light in the guard's eyes was more like that of a wolf than the guard's.

From the looks of the two, everyone else knew that they wanted to guard the house, but was that possible? Obviously, the two knew it, and they were not thick-skinned enough to not ask.

I've always wanted to play with the guard.

The guard rolled his eyes when Wang Peng and You Gu looked at him. He learned this from his master.

Aren't these two people so ignorant?

Are all the city people like this?

Have you never seen a wolf?

The guard ignored the two men and just waited for the meat.

After a group of people finished their dinner, they saw that it was still light and many shops were still open, so they went out to buy some things.

The further north you go, the colder it gets. Jiang and Zheng are not young anymore, and there are two pregnant women among them, so they should prepare more warm things to be prepared.

If one day one is unlucky and it rains on the road, it is inevitable that one has to change two sets of clothes in a day, especially for the people driving the horse-drawn carriage.

As a result, Zheng was the first to pay for anything Jiang liked.

"Sister-in-law, I don't want you to be like this."

The Jiang family is not that shameless.

"If you don't accept it, I won't go with you. It's not an important thing. I haven't returned the banknotes you stuffed into my bag yet."

Qin Zhongyue hurried away after hearing Zheng's words.

"Miss Qin, what a coincidence!"

Suddenly, a man in his early thirties with a short beard greeted Qin Zhongyue with a smile.

Qin Zhongyue couldn't remember who this person was for a moment.

She saw a woman who looked to be about 30 years old next to the man, also looking at her intently. She should be the man's wife. When she saw Qin Zhongyue looking at her, she smiled and greeted him.

Qin Zhongyue smiled and returned the greeting, but she didn't know this person either.

The couple could see the confusion on Qin Zhongyue's face. They looked at each other and the lady smiled first, "Thank you for saving my horse earlier."

When Zheng noticed the situation here, her eyes immediately turned red with surprise.
