Chapter Sixteen: The Jia Family in the City

"Go, go, go, go!" Jiayu's facial features twitched, urging Qiao Qixin to go faster.

"Young Master, this is an ox cart, not a horse carriage." Qiao Qixin was helpless.

——

Jia's Mansion in the City

"Mom! Your son is back!" Jia Yulian strode towards the living room where a lady was wandering anxiously.

"Hey, my dear, let me see if I'm injured! You're worried about me." Jia looked at her son who had been away from home for two days with tears in her eyes. "I asked you to bring one with you.

Attendant, if you don’t want it, look at it, it’s all covered in ashes!”

Jia Yulian patted her nonchalantly, and then introduced to her mother: "Mom, this is Qiao Qixin. I accidentally fell into a hunter's trap. She rescued me and gave me three yellow steamed buns.

It was she who borrowed the bullock cart to send me back."

Jia rolled her eyes and looked at Qiao Qixin, who was standing at the door and not coming in.

He wears coarse cloth clothes, no makeup, and has a submissive temperament... His only advantage is probably that his face is still pretty.

Jia immediately ordered: "Cuiqing, take my pair of jade bracelets and some silver coins and give them to this young lady."

——Country women, just fool them.

Qiao Qixin didn't have the ability to read minds, so she naturally didn't know what Jia was thinking.

She happily took the bracelet and silver, and said calmly: "Thank you, madam. The little lady will leave first."

Qiao Qixin's direct words blocked all Jia's polite words.

Before leaving, she added politely: "Don't worry, I will lose my memory as soon as I leave the Jia family gate."

Jia's eyes narrowed slightly.

This woman was telling her that she was very strict with her words, and now that she was being paid, she would not bother her family.

Mrs. Jia looked at Qiao Qixin's leaving figure, thought for a moment and then called her personal maid: "Go ahead and let her go if she can leave the city safely."

"yes."

"Mom, I'm just going out of town, why do I have to..." Jia Yulian couldn't help but ask.

At this moment, Mrs. Jia's face was gloomy, as if she was a different person, "You don't need to know, my mother is there for everything."

"When you left the city, who else did you meet?"

"The village chief, and..."

——

At this time, Qiao Qixin, who was sitting on the bullock cart, was thinking.

Should this bracelet be exchanged for silver in a pawn shop, or should it be kept as jewelry?

"Run! Another prisoner has escaped!"

I don't know who shouted it, and the originally lively street suddenly became chaotic.

"Go, go, go!"

"Why did a prisoner escape again? How many times has this happened!"

"Shh! Stop talking nonsense! Go home quickly!"

Qiao Qixin stuck her head out and looked behind the bullock cart. Several prisoners wearing prison uniforms and holding swords were running towards her.

"Brothers, rush! After leaving the city, we go up the mountain and become kings!" one of the prisoners shouted.

"No, why am I carrying it like this?"

Qiao Qixin complained.

She put the silver and bracelet in her pocket, then hid herself in the carport behind.

Bullock carts run slower than people. They are only suitable for transportation, not running. Those prisoners will definitely look down on them.

Georgette huddled in the corner, quietly waiting for the farce to subside.

"Brother, look! There's a bullock cart here!"

"Come on, come on! Those officers and soldiers are going to catch up with us!"

Qiao Qixin:?

"Eh? Brother, there is a beautiful woman in the carport!" A prisoner wearing a black turban looked excitedly at Qiao Qixin, who was huddled in the corner.

"Ha, haha... How are you guys..."
