Shock! The maid in the Marquis's mansion gave birth to the eldest son of the prince

Chan Yi was shocked. Damn it, was she going to die before she could accomplish her mission? She was recognized so quickly.

She pretended not to hear and continued walking towards the door at the same pace with her head lowered.

"You! I'm calling you? Stop." The young master shouted loudly.

"Second Master, Second Master, please stop shouting. That man is deaf." The shopkeeper hurriedly grabbed the young man's hand and said with a smile.

Chan Yi didn't say anything when she was taking things just now. She was afraid that her voice was not rough enough and people would hear the flaw, so she only used her hands to communicate with the shopkeeper.

"Oh, so he's deaf. No wonder he didn't turn around no matter how I called him." He turned his head and said, "Strange, why does this person look familiar, as if I've seen him somewhere before. But since he's deaf, maybe I remembered it wrongly."

He stood there thinking for a while, then suddenly patted his leg and said, "I remember now, this guy's eyes look a bit like Xiao Shizi, but that's not the case."

"Master Xiao?" The shopkeeper suddenly realized, "I wouldn't have remembered if Second Master hadn't told me. This man does look a bit like Master Xiao. But, Second Master, you're right. This man should have nothing to do with him. He's so poor that he has to pawn his things. No matter what, he can't be from the Xiao family."

"That's right, let's go." Lin Yi put away his fan and said to the servant who followed him in, "It's so boring. I can't even find anyone to play with."

"Second Master, it's time for you to see him." The servant muttered, "I heard that Master Pei is going to get married soon."

"Go away, go away. You are meddling in my business. What a waste." Lin Yi knocked the servant's head with the handle of his fan and said unhappily.

People were coming and going on the street, but that person had long disappeared.

He smiled self-deprecatingly. Perhaps the servant was right. It was time for him to get married and start a family. Even Pei Jin was willing to marry, so it seemed he couldn't escape it.

Chan Yi lowered her head carefully and found the breakfast shop. Mother Zhou had already ordered wontons and buns for her.

Only then did she realize that her stomach was growling with hunger. She ignored An'er's grunting and trying to pounce on her, and sat down and finished the bowl of wontons and two meat buns in one go.

"Mom, we'll leave the city separately later." Chan Yi lowered her voice and said, "You wait here for a while. I'll go to the nearby market to buy a big bamboo basket and put An'er in it so that no one can tell that he's a little baby. An'er won't wake up for a while after eating. I'll buy some more food, and when we get out of the city gate, there's a dilapidated temple not far away, and we'll meet there."

"Okay, I'll listen to you." Mother Zhou held An'er and nodded continuously. Seeing that Chanyi had arranged everything in order, she felt much more at ease.

After a while, Chan Yi came back with a large bamboo basket full of food. She winked at Mother Zhou, and the two of them hurried to a secluded place.

After feeding An'er and coaxing him to sleep, Chan Yi hid him in a bamboo basket, placed soft cold steamed buns around him, and propped it up with gauze. If you didn't look carefully, you couldn't see that there was a little baby inside.

"Mom, if someone asks you, just say you're visiting relatives." Chan Yi whispered, "It's best not to chat with them."

"Okay." Mother Zhou straightened the gray cloth jacket she had just put on and ruffled her hair a little, looking like an ordinary woman.

"Chan Yi, you have to be careful too." She whispered, "Your face is too conspicuous even if you dress up as a man."

Mother Zhou's words woke Chan Yi up, and she immediately said, "Let's get out of the city first. Once we're out of the city, I'll return to my female body. Otherwise, having a baby around to feed will attract other people's attention."

The two of them left the city smoothly separately. Chan Yi changed into a beige jacket and skirt in the dilapidated temple, painted her face with yellow powder, and used contouring to make her eyes and nose look uglier. After she was dressed up, Mother Zhou was greatly surprised. How could Chan Yi turn from a pretty young lady into an ordinary sister-in-law in such a short time?

"Chan Yi, you are really amazing." Mother Zhou praised sincerely.

Chan Yi sprinkled some gray powder on her hair to make it look less black and smooth than before, and then she took out a white flower and pinned it on her head.

"Mom, from now on I am the Widow Li, and you are my wet nurse, so you must not let anything slip." Chan Yi said solemnly.

"Got it, don't worry, young lady." Mother Zhou got into the role quickly, picked up An'er carefully, and packed up her things neatly according to Chanyi's instructions.

"Let's go quickly. The escort company that Madam arranged for us to escort the goods is just ahead." Chan Yi said in a low voice.

The two men lit candles with the luggage that they could not take away and burned them all. Then they walked out of the dilapidated temple together and easily found the ordinary small escort agency.

When the boss heard that there was business coming, he was very happy and promised that he would send them to Luocheng smoothly. Their escort agency had a rule that they would not care about the identity of the customer after receiving the money, but looking at the white flowers on Chan Yi's hair and seeing her secretly lowering her head and crying, he roughly guessed her identity.

Luocheng is not far from the capital, only three to five days' journey away. The escort agency sent two escorts to take the three of them on the journey.

Originally, Chan Yi was most worried about the child, but unexpectedly, An'er ate and slept during the journey, and was very well-behaved. Even Mother Zhou was amazed.

They arrived safely in Luo City. After thanking the two escorts who were silent but took great care of them along the way, Chan Yi and Mother Zhou carried An'er into the city.

"Mom, we won't stay here. We'll find a boat to Jiangnan right away." After entering the city and standing on a high place, watching the escort team disappear from sight, Chan Yi patted An'er's back and said softly.

"Ah... didn't Madam arrange a house and a shop for you in the city?" Mother Zhou looked at Chan Yi blankly, her eyes full of confusion.

"Mom, I think we shouldn't stay in Luo City. I'm afraid that one day Madam might... Then our whereabouts will be exposed. I'm afraid then..." She looked at An'er in her arms and said, "Mom, believe me, I don't want to die with An'er. If I survive by chance, I don't want to spend my whole life as a student in a low-income primary school. Mom, I heard that Jiangnan is rich in resources, has a pleasant climate, and beautiful scenery. We will definitely live a good life there."

"But, but..." Mother Zhou hesitated, "We don't have a place to stay over there, what should we do?"

"Mom, don't worry, I'll take care of everything." Chan Yi smiled slyly, and her ordinary face instantly became lively, as if there was a magical power that made Mother Zhou feel at ease.

"Girl, I'll do whatever you say." Mother Zhou smiled with relief, "Let's go and find a boat."
