Chapter 17 Buying a Car

The city gate has not been opened for two days?

Pei Zichuan's expression changed slightly.

"We want to go from Anyu Mansion to Qingzhou, but we're afraid it won't work."

He heard from his classmates that An Yufu was very cautious and timid.

At this time, the Yunzhou Army could attack at any time. The prefect, who was so greedy for life and fearful of death, would not dare to open the city gate and let them in.

"Then what should we do?"

Pei Da asked.

How can they go to Qingzhou if they can't get through Anyu Mansion?

"Let's find a safe place to rest for the night, and then we'll figure it out tomorrow morning."

Lin Jiao said.

She wanted to take this opportunity to get a car, but Jiang had to walk for several days, and even with the spiritual spring water she gave her, it was a bit too much.

"I don't know what the situation is now, so this is the only way."

Li Zheng nodded and turned to Pei Zichuan.

"Zichuan, follow your elder brother to find where it is safer. I will wait here with the elder brother."

"good."

Pei Zichuan left quickly with his eldest brother and several others.

After they left, Li Zheng came over to ask Lin Jiao.

"Daughter-in-law Ayuan, I have noticed over the past few days that you are a man of means, so I would like to ask you if you can save Zichuan's life when he is in danger and let him go to Liangzhou safely."

"My uncle is old. It doesn't matter where he dies. Among my sons and grandsons, the one I like the most is Zichuan. He is not mediocre like his brothers. He is an ambitious and ambitious child."

The book says that Pei Zichuan was indeed a very good official, upright and upright. He never married and devoted himself to the court, and did many great deeds for the country and the people.

However, Lin Jiao didn't think that Pei Zichuan would be in any danger. He was the second male lead and had lived longer than the male lead. How could anything happen to him?

However, in order to reassure Li Zheng, Lin Jiao nodded.

"Uncle, don't worry, I will never hesitate if I can help."

Not for Pei Zichuan as a person, but so that he can do good things for these helpless and innocent people in the future.

Pei Zichuan took the people there for two quarters of an hour before returning.

"Father, Pei Da and I found a place that is not far from Fucheng and relatively secluded. If there is any accident, it will be convenient for us to escape."

Pei Zishan said.

"Okay, then let the big guys pack up their things and go over there."

Li Zheng nodded and asked Pei Zishan to tell everyone, leaving Pei Zichuan behind.

"Zichuan, I have something to tell you."

"Father, tell me."

Pei Zichuan said respectfully.

"There are too many dangers along the way. You and A Yuan have the best relationship. Now that A Yuan is gone, you should help him take care of his family.

From now on, you will follow your aunt and the others, A Yuan’s wife and I have already agreed."

"Father……"

Pei Zichuan looked at Li Zheng with complicated eyes.

How could he not understand why his father arranged this?

"I know what you want to say."

Li Zheng interrupted Pei Zichuan, not wanting to hear what he was going to say next, "We have three brothers of yours in our family, so you don't have to worry."

"But……"

"No but, if you recognize me as your father, you will listen to me."

Li Zheng's face turned cold.

Pei Zichuan pursed his lips, looked at Li Zheng and shook his head seriously, "I promised A Yuan that I would help him take care of his family, but I can't ignore you. Zi Chuan knows what he is going to do, and father doesn't have to worry about me."

If he ignores his parents because he is afraid of death, he can't do it.

When Li Zheng saw that Pei Zichuan couldn't make sense, his face turned dark with anger.

"Then you should help your aunt with more work and don't always dangle in front of me."

"I know this."

Pei Zichuan nodded and did not refute Li Zheng this time.

The wind is getting colder and colder, and the weather is getting worse and worse, as if it is going to rain at any time.

The place Pei Zichuan and his men were looking for was a forest, which was indeed very secluded at night.

"Sister-in-law, I'm afraid it's going to rain."

Jin Yu looked at the sky and said to Lin Jiao worriedly.

“Should we put up the tarps?”

If it really rains, the tarp will protect you from getting wet.

He now really admires his sister-in-law's foresight and bought a large piece of oilcloth in the county before leaving.

"I'm afraid it won't rain today, but it will snow."

Lin Jiao gathered her cotton-padded jacket and told Jin Yu, "Jin Yu, go pick up some firewood and take good care of your mother and younger brothers and sisters. I'll go out and be back soon."

"Where are you going?"

Jin Yu quickly asked, "Sister-in-law, it's too dangerous outside. It's getting dark now, so it's better not to go out."

It's more or less safe to be with people in the village.

"Don't worry, I won't go far."

Lin Jiao took the knife and left quickly.

Many people have gathered on the road.

Lin Jiao was wearing shabby men's clothes and holding a knife in her hand. She looked very fierce. Some people saw her approaching and hurriedly stayed away.

"Brother, are you alone?"

A man dressed as a servant came over and asked Lin Jiao.

"busy?"

Lin Jiao lowered her voice and asked.

"It's like this. Our master wants to find some guards. Seeing that the little brother has a knife in his hand, he must be a martial arts practitioner. Our master said that if the little brother is willing to protect our master, he is willing to pay monthly

You have ten taels of silver."

Ten taels of silver is quite a lot.

You know, their housekeeper only has five taels of silver a month.

"not interested."

Lin Jiao shook her head, her eyes lit up as she looked not far away.

She saw a man throwing a car he was pulling onto the side of the road.

Lin Jiao walked over quickly and reached out to pat the man sitting on the shaft of the car.

"Brother, do you want to sell your car?"

The man was wearing a single suit, and he was holding his arms and shaking because of the cold.

His cart was an empty bullock cart.

Lin Jiao came over because there was nothing up there.

"I don't want money."

The man looked up at Lin Jiao and saw her holding a knife and hiding back in fear.

"I won't give you money."

Lin Jiao approached the other person and whispered in his ear: "How about I exchange a quilt for you?

Your car can't block the wind or rain, and there's not even a baggage on it, so it's useless for you to pull it like this, you'll freeze to death in a short time."

"One quilt is not enough. If you give me another ten pounds of food, I will agree to it."

"OK."

Lin Jiao nodded.

There is a lot of food in her space.

The food planted yesterday is ripe again today.

She is not short of food. If ten pounds of food can help this person survive, then give it to her.

"You pull the car and follow me, and I'll get you a quilt." Lin Jiao said.

Both of them spoke in very low voices.

No one heard what they said, and in the end they only saw the man pulling the car and following the man with the knife.

Some people looked at the back of the man pulling the cart and shook their heads, "I'm afraid this man may not survive."

The one with the knife is not easy to mess with at first glance.
