Confiscated the property and exiled? I emptied the warehouse and fled the famine.

Ruan Yunsheng thought about it and it seemed to be true, just like the original owner and Ruan Yanci, people who share the same suffering will always feel sympathy for each other.

"Brother Lu, look, there is a cave ahead."

Lu Zhizhou looked in the direction Pei Yan's hand was pointing. There was indeed a cave in front of them. It looked quite large and was big enough for the twenty or thirty people they had.

"Brother Pei, let's go directly to the cave."

Pei Yan nodded and ordered everyone to go in that direction, "Xiao Yi, keep an eye on the people behind you and follow closely."

The road on the mountain was difficult to walk on, and they had to bring a mule, which made the already difficult journey even more difficult. But if they didn't bring the mule, all the new things they bought would have to be thrown away.

After great efforts, everyone finally reached the cave. The cave was bigger than Ruan Yunsheng had imagined, and it was more than enough to accommodate all of them. Everyone hid in the cave, and the mule was at the entrance.

Everyone was so tired that they sat on the ground or on rocks to rest. Ruan Yunsheng took out some biscuits from the space while getting something from the mule cart. She shared the biscuits with everyone, "I bought these when I went to the city to buy groceries. You can eat them without worry."

Hearing this, everyone ate with big mouthfuls. They were really hungry. After everyone finished eating, Ruan Yunsheng took out some silver and copper coins from his sleeve (in the space).

"Everyone is here. We have paid the workers. The market price is fifty coins per piece, but the tents we make require a relatively high level of needlework and tailoring. Even if you pay one or two taels of silver per piece, I will pay everyone now. Although it is a little, it is still money after all."

Ruan Yunsheng did not show favoritism to anyone and did not give anyone even a tael of silver. The two aunts of the Chen family and Ye looked at the tael of silver in their hands with some disbelief. This was the first time they had money since their exile. Although only a tael of silver might have been just enough for food in the past, they were very satisfied now.

Even Lu's sister-in-law, Old Lady Lu, Lu Yunruo and Ruan Yunsheng gave it to them, "Yunsheng, we are a family, we can't accept this money."

Madam Lu pushed the money in front of Ruan Yunsheng again, and the sisters-in-law of the Lu family also returned the money to Ruan Yunsheng, "Yes, Yunsheng, we didn't do anything but mend things, and these curtains were all bought by you. We feel uneasy if you give us more money."

As soon as the eldest sister-in-law Meng Yanan said this, the three members of the Chen and Ye families, who were originally immersed in the joy of getting one or two taels of silver, all felt that the money was a bit hot to the touch, "Um, Yun Sheng, we don't want ours either."

Ruan Yunsheng felt warm in her heart, and stuffed the money into the hands of Mrs. Lu and Sister-in-law Lu. As for the money from the Chen family and the Ye family, she did not take it. "Mom, we agreed that I would pay you according to the market price. Think about it, if you don't do it, I won't do it either, so we must let others do it for us. In this case, the money will become someone else's. But now the money is given to us, shouldn't we be happier?"

"But these curtains are not cheap. We paid you and you gave us the tent to live in."

Ruan Yunsheng smiled playfully, "Who said I gave it to you for free? Didn't I say I would sell it to you at a low price at the beginning? I also paid for these things, how could I give it to you for free? You are dreaming."

"If mom wants to get it for free without giving me money, I'll be the first one to disagree." Ruan Yunsheng muttered.

As soon as Ruan Yunsheng said this, the originally tense atmosphere instantly became lively. Madam Lu smiled knowingly. Her seventh daughter-in-law really knew how to manipulate people's hearts. "Okay, okay, we have money. Yunsheng, you decide how much money you want and we'll give you."

"Yes, Yunsheng, you tell me how much money I want. I have the money to pay you now."

"That's about right." Ruan Yunsheng put down his pouting mouth with satisfaction, "Then the big tent will be ten cents and the small tent will be five cents."

"Yun Sheng, please ask for more. We have money to give you." Chen's aunt felt a little embarrassed. The big tent only cost ten cents, which was not even enough to buy the ropes.

"I'll sell my tent for whatever price you want. Don't think it's cheap and refuse to pay. I have a lot of coins here, so I can make change no matter how much money you have."

Everyone laughed at Ruan Yunsheng's words. They all knew in their hearts that Ruan Yunsheng was deliberately trying to help them. They all remembered that they would take the lead in any future matters. The Ye family was also very glad that they had made peace with the Lu family. The Lu family was truly a family that valued friendship and loyalty.

"Okay, we have money, and we won't lose Yun Sheng's money."

"Yes, I will pay for the Lu family's tent." Meng Yanan took the lead in giving one or two taels of silver to Ruan Yunsheng. The rest of the Lu family did not fight for it. In their opinion, it would be better not to fight for it at all, and everyone would share the money in the future.

"I'll pay for the Chen family's tent." As the eldest son's daughter-in-law, the aunt naturally gave the money to Ruan Yunsheng.

Ye's family only had Ye, Ruan Yunsheng only took two cents from her and gave the rest to Ye, "Xiangling and Suji still want to sleep with you, they both need someone to take care of them so I only take two cents from you, please take care of them at night."

Ye was also a straightforward person and agreed immediately, "No problem, I won't let anything happen to them as long as I'm here."

The eyes of several officials sitting nearby were bloodshot. Out of sight, out of mind. Pei Yan simply stood up and walked to the cave entrance. "It's been so long. You didn't predict it wrong. There won't be any heavy rain or hail."

Lu Zhizhou and Ruan Yunsheng looked at each other and walked to the cave entrance. "It shouldn't be possible. I can't be wrong about that being a mammatus cloud."

Ruan Yunsheng looked at the mountains where there was not even a breath of wind and the leaves on the trees were motionless. She began to doubt herself, but she could not be wrong about the mammatus clouds. In modern times, she lived after the apocalypse, and the weather was no longer as good as it was in history. Mammatus clouds often appeared and soon there would be hail. The more and bigger mammatus clouds there were, the bigger the rainstorms and hail would be, and there would even be a water shortage.

The mammatus clouds she saw at the third brother's house were growing rapidly, which proved that the rainstorm and hail would be significant.

"Let's wait a little longer. If it's still like this, we'll go down the mountain and continue on our way."

"Oh, they said that rain on such a hot day wouldn't cause any harm, but would actually make things cooler. Some people didn't believe that there would be any heavy rain or hail, and thought I was talking nonsense and refused to go up the mountain."

The third brother came back limping and wiped the sweat from his forehead. In fact, he didn't really believe that there would be heavy rain or hail. It was such a hot day that even if it really rained, it would get cooler and cooler.

Lu Zhizhou and the other two didn't say anything. After another half an hour, there was still no movement. "Everyone get ready to go down the mountain and continue on your journey." In order not to delay the progress, Pei Yan chose to go down the mountain now.

Ruan Yunsheng had no reason to keep anyone here. She was the one who said there would be heavy rain and hail, but two hours had passed and there was still no movement. She could see the impatience on Pei Yan's face.

Pei Yan walked out of the cave and took a few steps when a strong wind blew him back into the cave.
