Don't panic if your home is confiscated or you are exiled, just empty the warehouse and stock u

As Jiang Nianwei stepped into the inn, a rich fragrance hit her face.

She looked up and saw Aunt Liu busy in front of the fire. The chicken soup in the stew pot was bubbling. The steam was mixed with the rich aroma of ginseng and deer antlers, which was mouth-watering.

I remembered that my sister-in-law had taken several doses of medicine in the past few days, and her fetus had stabilized and her body was gradually recovering.

The post station was deserted, but their family had never been out of food or hungry. They wore thick cotton-padded jackets and had ruddy complexions.

Madam Liu filled a bowl and brought it to her. "Miss San, would you like to taste this chicken soup and see how it tastes?"

Jiang Nianwei took a sip. The chicken soup was extremely delicious. The warmth instantly spread from the tip of her tongue to her whole body. She couldn't help but admire: "Mammy, your cooking skills are getting better and better. The taste of this chicken soup is really unforgettable."

Although it was freezing and snowy outside, they were well fed and well watered here and lived a very peaceful life.

She turned to look at her second brother and saw that he was eating the bacon rice with gusto, looking very satisfied.

He would never again starve to death due to lack of food like he did in his previous life.

My father and sister-in-law were also drinking chicken soup safely...

At this moment, the quiet atmosphere was suddenly broken by an urgent knock on the door, "Open the door quickly, there is an emergency!"

Jing Qiudie's face showed fear, fearing that what the two children had done had been exposed, and that the government had tracked them down and were about to arrest them.

The officers rushed in, glanced at the people present, and then announced loudly: "According to the order from the superiors, all those detained here, regardless of gender, age or status, must immediately participate in the disaster relief work. There must be no mistakes!"

When Jing Qiudie heard the news, she couldn't help but feel relieved that Jiang Nianwei and Jiang Lanxu could escape the disaster temporarily.

Jiang Nianwei was not very happy. After all, the wind outside was freezing cold, blowing on her face harshly. She couldn't help but worry whether the women in the family could survive safely in such weather.

She applied the ointment she had purchased earlier on her face and distributed some to other women in the family.

Chun Yu couldn't help but be curious, "Miss, this smells better than what we use in the capital. Where did you get it from?"

"I bought it from a cosmetics shop in this city. After you use it, remember to give me some feedback. I want to know how you feel about it."

She can also improve the formula and add other Chinese herbal ingredients to make it more effective.

Jiang Nianwei tried her best to persuade the officers, even spending a large amount of money, to allow her sister-in-law to stay and have a rest. However, the officers refused to give in to other family members.

"This is an order from above. We have no other choice. Please stop making things difficult for us."

So Jiang Yan took the rest of the family, took the distributed tools, and started shoveling snow at the gate of the Duwei Mansion.

Perhaps because of the long-term drinking of spring water, even Jiang Yan, with his old bones, had no difficulty in shoveling snow.

Only Abei, due to health reasons, had to cover his wound and take a rest after working for a period of time, but he still persisted without any complaints. This family treated him much better than he did in the past.

Jiang Nianwei was originally worried that her family wouldn't be able to handle it, but she didn't expect them to be so efficient at work.

Jiang Siyu and Taozhi shoveled snow and built two small snowmen at the same time. They were able to have fun in the midst of hardship.

She smiled and teased: "Taozhi, look at this snowman, isn't he a bit like you, both are so honest and cute."

Taozhi blushed when she heard this, and pretended to be angry and said, "Fourth Miss, you are making fun of me again. How am I stupid?"

At this moment, the crisp sound of horse hooves broke the silence.

Everyone looked in the direction of the voice and saw a woman in a fiery red fox fur cloak walking on the snow, shining brightly in the wind and snow.

"Who is making a loud noise at the gate of my Duwei Mansion?"

The woman had a pretty and beautiful face, but at this moment she angrily swung the whip in her hand, aiming directly at the two people standing not far away.

Before she could make a move, she saw a man move sideways and stand in front of the two of them.

The woman was furious and whipped him hard on the back, making a dull sound.

Jiang Lixuan just frowned slightly but did not utter a cry of pain. When the opponent's whip was raised again and was about to fall again, he stretched out his hand and grabbed the whip steadily.

The woman in red was furious when she saw this. She glared at him and shouted, "How dare you be so rude to me? I will let my father punish you!"

The guard who was supervising the work nearby quickly knelt down and kowtowed, "Miss Xie, we will punish this prisoner. Please forgive me, Miss Xie."

When Jiang Nianwei heard the title "Miss Xie", she raised her head involuntarily, with a hint of doubt and thought in her eyes.

Could it be that this Miss Xie is Xie Wangshu, the daughter of Xie Zhuo from Longzhou City?

Xie Zhuo is still a captain in Longzhou City, but in the future he will surely make great military achievements and become a general, and his daughter Xie Wangshu will also become the crown princess.

Although Xie Wangshu has a somewhat spoiled and domineering personality, she is not a scheming woman.

I remember that year, someone dared to impersonate an envoy from the State of Liang and kidnapped the Crown Princess in an attempt to force Xie Zhuo to surrender.

However, as the daughter of a general, Xie Wangshu had an unyielding spirit in her bones. She would rather die in glory than live in disgrace. At the critical moment, she resolutely drew her sword and committed suicide.

Jiang Nianwei only found out later that this was a play staged by the prince and his men.

The purpose was to force Xie Zhuo to lose the battle and hand over the military command, but he did not expect that the Crown Princess would rather die than let her father treason the country.

She was still immersed in her memories when she saw her second brother Jiang Lixuan kneeling in front of her, "Miss Xie, everything is my fault, I hope you don't bring harm to your family."

Xie Wangshu frowned, and suddenly sneered, "You are so brave, look up and let me see what you look like."

Jiang Lixuan lived up to his name, with an upright figure. Even though he was wearing a coarse cotton jacket, he still looked imposing.

Xie Wangshu lifted Jiang Li's chin with his fingertips, a hint of amusement flashed in his eyes, "You look quite handsome, why don't you stay in the mansion and be my horse slave?"

Seeing his unruly eyes, Xie Wangshu developed a strong desire to conquer him.

Just like the wild horses she had tamed, she wanted to temper this man's temper.

The officer at the side said: "Miss Xie, this is a prisoner exiled to Yazhou. I dare not make the decision!"

Xie Wangshu's eyes flashed with cunning, "Why don't you just find an excuse and say that he died of illness on the way?"

Jiang Yan was about to step forward to intervene, but was gently stopped by Jiang Nianwei. Her tone was unusually calm: "Second brother, this might not be a bad thing. Compared to being exiled with us, becoming a horse slave in Captain Xie's mansion might be more stable. You should stay."

Jiang Lixuan was confused and couldn't quite figure out his sister's intentions.

At this moment, Jiang Nianwei has already taken the initiative to speak, neither humble nor arrogant: "Miss Xie, I have an unwelcome request. Can you let my second brother go back with us to get some necessities, and then go back with you?"

Seeing how obedient this family was, Xie Wangshu couldn't help but feel inexplicably guilty. "You are quite sensible. I won't treat you unfairly. Come on, arrange a clean and warm place for them to live, so that people won't say that my Xie family is unreasonable!"

He turned to look at Jiang Lixuan and said, "Report to Xie's residence after you get your things!"

She was not a cruel person, but she was provoked by the bullying concubine in the Xie Mansion, so she acted impulsively.

After returning, Jiang Lixuan couldn't help wondering in his heart and asked Jiang Nianwei, "Nianwei, why did you insist on letting me stay in Xie's house?"

Jiang Nianwei said calmly, "Second brother, we are now charged with crimes and have an uncertain future. It is extremely difficult to restore our family reputation and gain fame, but there is a different world in the Xie Mansion. Second brother, you are well-read, proficient in military tactics, and good at marching and deploying troops. If you can stay in the Xie Mansion, you may be able to find a glimmer of hope and a future."

Jiang Yan also stroked his beard gently, and gradually understood in his heart. He nodded and agreed with Jiang Nianwei's decision: "Nianwei is right. Li Xuan is quite accomplished in military tactics. If he stays in Xie Mansion, he may be able to make a difference. Although he can only be a horse slave now, he will eventually find an opportunity. Besides, there are many hardships on the road of exile. It is safer to stay here."

Jiang Lixuan sighed in a low voice, frowning, his eyes full of impatience, "I really don't want to stay with such a spoiled and willful young lady."

Jiang Nianwei advised: "Second brother, you can't judge people by appearances. After getting along with each other, maybe you will find that Miss Xie is not as willful as she appears."

Just like her, she originally married Qin Ziqian and thought she had married her ideal husband, but you can never know a person's heart through his appearance.

Sure enough, not long after, Xie Wangshu sent someone to deliver 20 kilograms of coal and a few bottles of medicine, and also had someone move them to a larger room.

"This Miss Xie changes her expression really quickly!"

Jiang Lixuan finally compromised, but he still felt reluctant.

Before he left, Jiang Nianwei pulled him aside and explained in a low voice: "Second brother, to be honest, Siyu has been dreaming about our future along the way. I have compiled and recorded this, maybe it can change our future destiny."

Jiang Lixuan just felt it was ridiculous, "How could such a thing happen?"

Jiang Nianwei seemed to have anticipated his reaction. "It doesn't matter if you don't believe me now. I just want to remind you that if Miss Xie wants to go into the forest to hunt on the third day of the second lunar month, please find a chance to stop her."

If Xie Wangshu had entered the forest to hunt on that day, he would have saved a man, the current crown prince.

If the two had not met, she would not have become the Crown Princess, and the Crown Prince would not have been able to rely on the future power of the Xie Family.

"Also, if Commander Xie goes to war, you must do everything you can to follow him and swear to make military achievements."

Xie Zhuo won a great victory in that battle. If my second brother had followed him, he would definitely have earned some military merit.

Jiang Lixuan frowned slightly, his heart full of doubts, but he still chose to believe what his sister said, "I understand, I will try my best to do as you say."

Jiang Nianwei handed him another bag of gold, "Second brother, if you need any help, don't be stingy!"

She dared to let Jiang Lixuan stay in Xie Mansion because she knew very well that Xie Zhuo was a person who valued talent.

As long as the second brother can demonstrate his talent and ability, he will definitely be appreciated and valued by Xie Zhuo.

……

Seeing that Abei's health had almost recovered, and after observing him for some time, he had not done anything out of the ordinary.

Jiang Nianwei followed the previous decision, removed the nails from his body, and continued to learn martial arts with Jiang Lanxu.

She called Abei aside, but for some reason the boy was so warm to everyone, but when he looked at her, he always kept his head down and didn't dare to look her in the eye.

Jiang Nianwei didn't pay too much attention to these details, but just instructed calmly: "Take off your clothes first, I want to take out the nails in your body.

Abei suddenly felt shy, but he still obediently followed Jiang Nianwei's instructions and slowly took off his coat.

His thin body was covered with scars, and Jiang Nianwei felt horrified every time she saw it.

Jiang Nianwei first asked Taozhi and Chunyu to cook a pot of medicine and let Abei take it directly. This was the Ma Fei San she cooked with Datura flowers.

Ah Bei looked at the bowl of medicine in front of him that was dark in color and exuded an indescribable smell. He couldn't help but hesitate, but he finally drank it in one gulp.

Then, he began to feel strange in his body, as if a cold force was seeping through his limbs and making him feel numb all over. His limbs seemed to have lost control and he was unable to lift them.

Seeing this, Jiang Nianwei took out the dagger in an orderly manner, roasted the blade with fire to remove the stains and bacteria on it, and then carefully disinfected it with strong liquor.

Jiang Nianwei held her breath and concentrated, then cut open the wound in one breath. Abei only felt a slight pain, which was completely negligible.

Afterwards, Jiang Nianwei avoided the meridian location and took out the nail. The scene was bloody and others couldn't bear to watch.

Until Abei gradually lost consciousness, when he woke up again, he found that his body was completely bandaged and applied with pain-relieving Chinese herbal medicine. Immediately, the heavy feeling in his body disappeared.

He tried to follow the moves Jiang Lanxu taught him and swung his fists a few times, even creating gusts of wind. At this moment, his feelings for Jiang Nianwei were beyond words, and then he felt another sharp pain.

Jiang Nianwei smiled helplessly, "Your wound hasn't healed yet, don't do this, it will tear the wound."

For some reason, ripples arose in his heart.

While getting along with Jiang Nianwei, he gradually realized that a strange feeling was quietly growing in his heart.

He used to have trouble sleeping at night, but now lying here makes him feel particularly at ease and he can fall into a deep sleep quickly.

Jiang Nianwei took out the nails from his body, and he no longer had to endure that kind of pain, and he could finally sleep peacefully...

……

The next morning, the police brought in a new batch of prisoners, and Jiang Nianwei found that some of them looked very familiar.

A middle-aged woman, tears in her eyes, said in a choked voice, "Jiang Yan, if you still care about your relatives back home, you should stay in the court and behave yourself. Why did you cause such trouble and make our family homeless?"

It turned out that her great aunt and her family were also escorted here.

Speaking of his brother, Jiang Yan couldn't help but feel guilty. He knew very well that because of that incident, they were all exiled to this remote Yazhou. Moreover, when he was a child, he fell into the water and it was his brother who saved him at the risk of his own life.

Faced with his sister-in-law's insults, he could only swallow his anger and remain silent.

As soon as Jing Qiudie saw her sister-in-law, she felt like she was about to get a headache.

Originally, she was engaged to the eldest son of the Jiang family. However, the eldest sister-in-law seduced Jiang Yan's brother and became pregnant. Jing Qiudie married Jiang Yan in anger.

Fortunately, this choice was the right one. After getting married, as they got to know each other better, she gradually discovered that Jiang Yan's character was so upright.

Not only was he an upright person, but after marriage he never thought of taking a concubine and stayed with her wholeheartedly.

Not only that, he was also diligent and studious, worked hard and made progress, and finally successfully passed the imperial examination and embarked on a career in officialdom.

Aunt Shen Xiangdi stared at Jiang Yan angrily with her almond-shaped eyes, and even ignored her serious husband standing beside her.

She pounced forward and almost fell into Jiang Yan's arms. If Jiang Nianwei hadn't pushed her in time, this aunt would have really succeeded.
