Yao Shu is much calmer. She has not been dazzled by the benefits in front of her. Even if she and Shen Nanshan run away now, it is not a problem for them to hide around the city.

They don't have any basic honors, so they know they will be bullied.

These days, the government doesn't care much about things. There are many people who bully the weak, especially among the refugees. It is estimated that they will be robbed of their belongings by strong men before long.

The situation will only be worse by then.

"But if we really get into the Yamen, we won't be beaten. We are not here to give gifts to big shots, and we can't bring out treasures."

Shen Nanshan was so anxious that he jumped up and down. This situation was a bit too bad. This would not work, and that would not work either. He was really afraid that he would have to explain it here.

The yamen's boards can kill people.

Seeing that he was in such a panic that no one could escape, Yao Shu gave him a high look.

Husband and wife are like birds in the same forest, and they fly separately when disaster strikes. Shen Nanshan did not choose to escape alone, which was really beyond her expectation. This alone was enough to defeat many people.

"Why are you panicking? Who said I have no more treasures?"

"Our family is so poor that we don't have anything good."

Although Shen Nanshan is not in charge of the family's money, he still knows the general situation. His ancestors have never been rich.

But looking at Yao Shu's old spirit, he hesitated a little. The more he thought about it, the more confused he became. He scratched his head worriedly and still couldn't figure it out.

At this moment, he saw Yao Shu pointing to the ground.

This was a tacit understanding unique to the Shen family. Shen Nanshan understood it instantly, and the sad look on his face immediately dissipated.

"I'm really sorry to the Lord of Hell. This is a good Lord of Hell who saves the suffering..."

He almost said the words "Living Bodhisattva" smoothly, but he changed his words in time. This person had nothing to do with Bodhisattva, and he couldn't worship the wrong god.

Yao Shu looked at his convinced look and shook her head with a smile.

It was thanks to Shen Nanshan that he was so easy to fool, otherwise she would have had a headache. After all, she really couldn't explain the origin of these things.

The couple waited in the corner for more than half an hour before someone answered them again. Manager Lin led someone over in a very flattering manner.

"Steward Li, these are the two people who threatened to give away treasures."

"Lin Da, I think you are deliberately looking for me to entertain you, right?"

Butler Li's eyes swept over Yao Shu and Shen Nanshan, without taking a second look, and asked Manager Lin in a bad tone.

"Look at their appearance. How are they different from the refugees outside the city? Don't you know that I've been busy with my master's family's weddings recently?"

At this time, Manager Lin, Yao Shu and others were grasshoppers on a rope, so she helped explain.

"How dare I fool you? They were in trouble on the road. That's why they look like this."

He was also a little scared, fearing that Yao Shu was bluffing him and that he was unlucky. How could he encounter such a bad thing? It was really unpleasant.

Yao Shu was no longer vague. She took out the glazed phoenix hairpin, but she kept it in mind. She just waved the thing in front of Manager Li's eyes and quickly took it back.

"Steward Li, our master has instructions that this thing must be delivered to Miss Li personally."

She didn't really come to give gifts. After giving away the phoenix hairpin, she didn't care about anything. She even pointed to using the phoenix hairpin as a bargaining chip to negotiate with Miss Li.

This is undoubtedly a risky move, but only a powerful person like Miss Li can accomplish what she wants.

Even Butler Li has a hard time making the decision.

With so many people in Dahezhuang, it was no small matter to enter the city. Yao Shu had no intention of leaving everyone behind.

The flash of colorful light made Butler Li's eyes widen. He never expected that the beggar-like woman in front of him could actually produce such a treasure.

At the moment, he firmly believed in Yao Shu's previous words, and he couldn't tell whether the other party's boss was a big shot that he couldn't afford to offend.

Thinking of this, Butler Li's attitude immediately changed drastically, and his tone was warm.

"You must ask Miss for permission on this matter. You can go to the mansion to rest and recuperate."

"Good work."

Yao Shu looked unfazed, and entered the house under the arrangement of Butler Li, and went to the guest room to rest.

I have to say that the hospitality at the county magistrate's house was excellent. Not only did they arrange snacks, but they also prepared clean clothes and hot water for them to bathe.

This situation was completely different from the difficult days when they fled. Even before the disaster, Shen Nanshan had never experienced such a good life.

For him, all this was too unbelievable. Even if the villain of Li Mansion had left, he was still restrained and did not dare to move.

"Hey, be a good boy. I'm not dreaming. Is this a fairy day?"

"It really can't be true anymore. That's how it is in wealthy families. You wait outside while I go take a bath first."

Finally, she had the opportunity to take a hot bath. Yao Shu didn't want to miss this excellent opportunity. She had never had a pleasant bath after coming here for so long.

She is so exhausted now that she almost smells sour.

But right now, she was still a little worried. After all, they were in the same guest room. Even if the bathing area was in a separate room, it was blocked by a screen, but she couldn't rest assured that there was a grown man like Shen Nanshan around.

Although the two have been married for many years, Yao Shu is not used to this status yet.

Unfortunately, this matter cannot be said openly.

"Okay, old lady, go quickly."

Shen Nanshan readily agreed, and he was busy looking at the various objects in the room. Most of the objects were curiosities to him.

Even though he had already agreed, Yao Shu still couldn't feel relieved, so she thought for a while and said.

"Go and stand guard at the door to see if you can hear any noise."

"Ah good."

Although Shen Nanshan didn't know why he did this, he was used to following Yao Shu's instructions. However, there was one more thing he wanted to do before reaching the door.

I saw him looking at Yao Shu with burning eyes and rubbing his palms.

"Old lady, we haven't been together for a long time, can you let me..."

"cannot!"

Yao Shu replied decisively.

She looked at Shen Nanshan with wide eyes, her eyes fierce as if she was about to take action.

"But we finally have a chance. It's just the two of us. Is it okay to eat a few snacks? Our family hasn't had snacks in several years. Can't we really eat one?"

Shen Nanshan was really greedy. Life had been difficult in recent years. The family was almost out of food, so naturally he had no money to buy snacks.

He just wanted to taste it. The food was right in front of him. He could smell the fragrance of the snacks. He really couldn't bear it.
