Chapter 20: When has my daughter ever been so wronged?
Shen Lanxi swung the stick in her hand, and blood lines crisscrossed together, which was shocking.
Liu Laohu's brows twitched fiercely. Instead of being a gentle gentleman, he was a living King of Hell!
"I went into the mountain and killed two chickens just now. Brother Liu, why are you here?" After she finished speaking, she threw the thing in her left hand to the ground.
What a pair of pheasants!
No matter how stupid Liu Laohu is, he still doesn’t believe that there is so much blood on the stick because he was beaten by a pheasant. His brows twitched twice, and he quickly bowed and clasped his fists politely.
"There was a night attack, and I came here to check the situation. Are you okay, sir?"
Shen Lanxi smiled lightly and said, "It's okay. I have been traveling for the past two days and my body is a little weak. I thought Go into the mountains and catch two chickens and stew them to replenish them!”
Liu Laohu twitched the corner of his mouth. If he heard it right just now, he said that he was weak and made a whirring sound when swinging the stick. The strength of that voice made the stick in her hand weigh at least twenty or thirty kilograms. He was swinging it as if for fun. Everyone would be weak, but he would not be weak!
"Young Master, have a good rest, I'll go check around!" Liu Laohu respectfully took two steps back before turning around.
If he didn't leave, he was afraid that others would see the twitching corners of his mouth.
Chun Xue: "My slave, go and fetch water!"
Qiu Shuang: "My slave, go and fetch the carriage!"
Shen Lanxi hummed, pretending to pull a handkerchief from her sleeve, In fact, he took a piece of linen cloth from the space and wiped the blood on the stick.
The blood stains were left intentionally by her to frighten Liu Laohu and other officials.
The horse-drawn carriage and the ox-cart were driven back to their original positions. Chun Xue fetched a basin of water for Shen Lanxi to clean her hands, and Mother Li took the whole family to collect the pheasants.
The long stick was buried three-quarters of the way into the ground and stood next to Shen Lanxi. The two maids did not dare to look at him. They each found things to do and were busy.
The firelight shone on Shen Lanxi's calm face as if nothing had happened, making her even more unfathomable. Chun Xue Qiu Shuang once again recognized the fact that the young lady was very powerful, and served her with even more respect.
The aroma of chicken soup spread, and Shen Lanxi stood up.
"I'm tired. You can eat the chicken soup and chicken. Guard the carriage and don't let anyone disturb my rest!"
Qiu Shuang hurriedly asked; "Sir, what should I do with the family members of the fake Wei Jiajun who died?"
Shen Lanxi: "There are wolves in the mountains, find a place farther away and throw them away." Those who murder others do not need to be kept alive. corpse!
Qiu Shuang quickly took orders to do it.
Shen Lanxi entered the carriage, waited for two seconds, and after making sure that no one would disturb her, she immediately went into the space to freshen up!
There was a killing just now. Although there was no blood on his body, he was sweating a lot.
Mother Li didn’t dare to disturb the young lady’s rest, and asked Qiu Shuang in a low voice; “Do you want to send some chicken soup to the master and his wife?”
Qiu Shuang shook her head decisively: “The young lady didn’t say so, so we won’t Send it!”
Mother Li hesitated, nodded and retreated.
The chicken soup here is strong, and the aroma wafts to the exiled prisoners, and their stomachs begin to growl.
Shen Conglian approached Mrs. Shen: "Father and mother, when Lan Xi brings the soup, ask her to bring more steamed buns."
Old Mrs. Shen nodded: "Let her find a way to deliver some meat!"
The sons surrounding the old lady immediately nodded with satisfaction. The Shen family's main room was also looking forward to it.
"Father, will the eldest sister bring us soup?"
Shen Congwen said with a worried face: "Our Shen family has been too high-profile these two days. When my sister sent someone to deliver soup, she told her that there is no need to deliver food to us every meal, just one meal a day!"
Shen Yuantang was so hungry that acid water kept coming out of his stomach! , If she had known that she would be hungry so soon, she would definitely not have pity on the woman and give out the food.
"Father, how can that be done? If there is no big sister to bring us food, how can we survive!"
Shen Congwen's face turned cold: "Haven't you discovered other exiles? Have the criminals started targeting our Shen family?”
One sentence made everyone else lose their temper.
"They are jealous that no one brings them food!" Shen Yuanqing muttered.
Shen Congwen's eyes were worried: "Who was beaten at night?"
Shen Yuanjun subconsciously covered his stomach, he was beaten. Those hateful prisoners dared to take advantage of the chaos to beat him, and all the government officials acted as if they couldn't see them.
"You have also seen what happened today. If our Shen family still wants to arrive in Dongchuan safely, we must keep a low profile and just do as I say!"
Shen Yuantang looked away. One glance at the direction of the big sister, even if I keep a low profile, I will start tomorrow, and there will be broth to drink tonight!
Never thought that the Shen family waited and waited, until all the officials fell asleep, and they did not wait for the broth, so they could only close their eyes and sleep full of resentment.
Shen Lanxi personally delivered meals to her family the next day.
"Greetings, father. Yesterday I heard from Mrs. Li that her mother was sick. My daughter was really worried. She got up early and cooked meat porridge for her mother with her own hands. Let her eat some!" Shen Lanxi was about to feed her mother the porridge with her own hands. Then my father took the bowl.
"Lan Xi, I know you feel sorry for us. But you also saw what happened yesterday. Our Shen family should not be too high-profile in the exile team. From now on, you will only have one meal delivered every day. You Try to sit in the carriage and don't show up!" This was Shen Congwen's decision after thinking about it all night.
The daughter is now the only support for the Shen family in exile, so nothing can happen to her!
"Father, can you bear one meal a day?" Shen Lanxi looked distressed.
Shen Congwen couldn't help but feel sad when he thought about how his daughter was being made difficult by the government officials when delivering food.
"If others can bear it, we can bear it too. Your two concubines were beaten yesterday. Those exiled prisoners hate our Shen family. It would be great if we let them see us eating again. , I will definitely make things difficult for you behind your back. Let’s work harder now and wait until we get to the place of exile!”
Zhou Xinrou looked at her daughter with tears in her eyes: “I, Lan Xi, am so good. She has suffered such grievances before!" She felt heartbroken when she thought about her daughter being bent down by the government servant just now!
Shen Lanxi also had red eyes.
"Father and mother, I know you are all doing this for the good of our entire Shen family. But what if my grandparents and uncles don't want to be wronged?"
Shen Congwen 1 She looked at her daughter with a distressed face: "Don't worry, I told them in the morning. This time the house was raided suddenly, and no one in the family had any money hidden on them. At the gate of the city, no one dared to see the Shen family off. "In the future, they will have enough food and clothing..." If it were in the past, the female family members would have taken care of the affairs of the inner house, but now the daughter is probably the only one in the entire Shen family who has money.
Shen Congwen was too embarrassed to say the rest.
You can’t just let your daughter support everyone in the Shen family by herself! He doesn’t have that face yet!
"Lan Xi, my daughter, it's not easy! If they still dare to say anything, don't give them one meal a day from now on. If they starve them for a few days, they will know who is good to them. Who treated them badly!"
If it were in the past, my father would never say such a thing. Shen Lanxi nodded.
"I listen to my father's arrangements, and I will let Mother Li deliver meals to you in the future!"
Shen Congwen wanted to ask his daughter how much money she still had, but she couldn't open her mouth several times!
