The fake daughter of a book, the villain who was humiliated ascended the throne

Chapter 6 She came to ask for help on her own initiative

It was already midnight when the group arrived at Heshi Town.

Everyone was already exhausted and just wanted to rest quickly.

It’s so late and there’s not much food in the post station.

The officers only gave each family a palm-sized coarse flour cake per person.

This coarse flour pancake was black and hard, and it was difficult to swallow even with water, not to mention that everyone could only eat it dry.

Fortunately, the Tao family had already eaten the steamed buns given by Shuxin, so they were not hungry at the moment.

Tao Miaomiao stared at the coarse flour pancake in her hand in a daze.

Even before the Tao family came to the capital, they had some assets.

Where had Tao Miaomiao ever eaten such a meal?

I remembered that I had yelled at Shuxin like that before. You should know that those white flour buns were brought by Shuxin.

Although my mother told me the truth, saying that Shuxin returned to their home because Tao Jiaojiao took the initiative to ask to return to the Marquis' Mansion.

It was them and Tao Jiaojiao who implicated her, so it was not Shu Xin's fault.

Despite this, Tao Miaomiao still didn't believe that her sister Jiaojiao was that kind of person.

But what Shuxin did was real. Without her, they would have to eat the same black-floured pancakes as the other families.

She glanced at Shuxin and turned her head away with an embarrassed look.

Shu Xin also saw Tao Miaomiao's reaction, and didn't know what she was thinking, so she just raised her eyebrows speechlessly.

She used the cover to place the coarse flour cake in the space.

I plan to keep it and use it to feed the cattle later.

Although there was a ox cart, Shuxin still had to walk because he and the children of the Tao family took turns riding it.

This body has never suffered before.

Shuxin really felt a little overwhelmed to have to walk so much distance at once.

As soon as she entered the room, she just wanted to fall asleep.

However, Tao used the only hairpin she had left on her body to exchange for a basin of hot water from a servant at the post station.

"Xin'er, wash your feet before going to bed, you will feel much more comfortable."

Tao brought in some water and gently woke Shuxin up.

Shuxin opened her eyes with great effort, and was still a little dazed when she saw Tao's loving gaze.

Tao thought Shuxin was still asleep, so she pretended to take off her shoes and socks and wash her feet.

Shu Xin was so scared that she sat up suddenly.

"No, I'll do it myself!"

Seeing Shuxin's instinctive resistance, Tao sighed inwardly, looked lonely, and tactfully stepped aside.

Shu Xin saw Tao's expression, but there was nothing she could do.

It was because she had never experienced parental love in her two lifetimes, so she was a little uncomfortable with Tao's care.

After learning that the water was obtained by Tao in exchange for her only remaining hairpin, she was the only one in the room who was shocked.

Shuxin felt helpless and somewhat touched.

"Mother, you really don't have to do this."

"This is just the beginning, we still have so much to go..."

The journey of exile was long and each of them did not have much assets.

If you reach your destination safely, you will need to leave some money for yourself to settle down.

Such sacrifice was a bit too heavy for her.

Besides, she doesn't need any special care.

Anyway, she could use the cover of the ox cart to rest in the space during the day.

There are the most advanced massage machines in later generations, which can relieve all the fatigue in a short time.

But today is the first day, and she still needs to observe the situation and make sure everything is safe before she can enter the space to rest.

"Xin'er, stop saying that!"

"If it weren't for you, all of us would have gone hungry today."

"It's just a small matter like this, but it's not enough for my mother..."

She looked relieved and apologetic.

Shuxin just returned home and has done so much for the family.

Originally, she should have made up to Shuxin more, but Shuxin was too sensible, and how could she, as her mother, feel comfortable with it?

Shu Xin was helpless and didn't know what to say to Tao.

She finished soaking the tea quickly and was about to take the water out and pour it out, but Tao got there first.

"I'll just come!"

Shuxin was not as quick as her, so she had to give up.

I have to say, soaking my feet does make me feel a lot more comfortable.

The fatigue all over my body also eased.

Shu Xin was just about to go to bed when she saw Tao coming back with an empty basin, frowning.

"Xin'er, the Xiao family..."

Tao said in a low voice.

Just as he said that, he heard someone knocking on the door.

"Doctor Yu, are you asleep?"

Tao's expression froze and she had no time to say anything more to Shuxin.

Turned around and called Yu Ansheng.

Afraid that the knocking would wake up the people in the house, Shuxin had to hurry to open the door.

Shuxin opened the door and signaled to the person at the door not to make loud noises.

But he saw a girl of about his age standing at the door.

The girl looked timid, as if she had summoned up all her courage to knock on the door and call for help.

Shu Xin saw that her eyebrows and eyes were somewhat similar to Xiao Beiwang's, and guessed that she must be a member of the Xiao family.

It seems that something happened to Xiao Beiwang?

When he saw Shuxin coming out, Xiao Nanyuan was so scared that he stepped back and almost fell down.

Shuxin was quick enough to grab her wrist.

"be careful."

Shuxin whispered.

Xiao Nanyuan used Shuxin's strength to stand firm, but he was still frightened.

"Many, thank you."

She hurriedly thanked Shuxin.

At this time, Yu Ansheng and Tao had already walked out the door.

They were all a little surprised to see that the person coming was a young girl.

When Xiao Nanyuan saw Yu Ansheng, she was about to kneel down, but was stopped by Tao.

"You are from the Xiao family? Tell me what happened first?"

Tao asked directly without hesitation.

Xiao Nanyuan had no choice but to nod.

"I am the second daughter of the Xiao family. I beg Doctor Yu to save my brother. He, he has a high fever!"

Xiao Nanyuan finished speaking quickly, looking panicked and pale.

When the Tao couple saw her like this, they knew that the Prince of Zhenbei was in danger and immediately frowned.

During the break, Yu Ansheng secretly went to deliver medicine to Xiao Beiwang, but was rejected by the Xiao family.

That medicine was the one that Yu Ansheng had secretly hidden with great difficulty. Not only was it effective, it was also extremely difficult to find on this road of exile.

Now the Xiao family came to ask for help again, and Yu Ansheng didn't know what the Xiao family's intention was.

But Shuxin spoke.

"You came here on your own initiative, right? Your brother and the others didn't know about it."

Seeing Shu Xin tell the truth, Xiao Nanyuan looked surprised and a little ashamed.

After thinking for a moment, she nodded hesitantly.

"I don't like what you said, it's true."

Xiao Nanyuan lowered his head dejectedly.

Yu Ansheng and Tao looked at each other.

"Then I'm sorry I can't go to see your brother!"

Yu Ansheng hesitated for a moment and refused directly.

When a doctor is seeing a patient, the most taboo is the patient's lack of cooperation.

This girl from the Xiao family came here secretly to ask for help, for fear that they would help but still be blamed.

Seeing this, Xiao Nanyuan looked frightened.

"Doctor Yu, please..."

She didn't dare to say anything more and just kept begging.

He looked pitiful and his eyes were full of despair.

Shu Xin looked at Xiao Nanyuan's expression and sighed in her heart.

Although she had read the original novel and knew that Xiao Beiwang would be fine this time, Xiao Nanyuan didn't know.

The fear and worry on her face were real.

Besides, this is the opportunity to make peace that Shuxin has been waiting for so long.

So Shu Xin turned around and persuaded Yu Ansheng.

"Father, let's go take a look first, how about that?"
