After being rejected, he emptied the mansion and went into exile

Shen Jinyao could see that Meng Da, as the eldest brother, was somewhat conservative and cautious.

But Meng Er is very flexible.

Meng Dali is strong, Meng San and Meng Si run fast.

Although Meng Wu is young, Meng Da said that he is the best archer among his brothers.

She believed that if bows and arrows were prepared for them, it would provide an extra layer of protection for the Shen family.

and……

She looked into the distance.

Once you enter Raozhou, you enter the mountainous area. I don’t know if the drought there has eased.

There are hunters in the mountains, and they are much stronger than these people from the plains.

At first, Meng Da did not agree to ask Shen Jinyao for such a high salary.

Shen Jinyao took the bow and arrow from the carriage.

Let them shoot the birds in the tree.

Meng Da shot down one, and Meng Er shot down two.

Meng San and Meng Si not only shot down the bird, but also shot down a swallow.

Meng Wu was the most powerful. Although he was about the same age as Zhiye, he still had some difficulty holding the bow and arrow.

But he actually shot two birds at once.

Shen Jinyao asked the brothers of the Zong family to shoot arrows, but they only hit one arrow each.

Then she asked Ergou to try again, and Ergou was surprisingly good at archery, second only to Meng Wu.

Neither Shen Zhixue nor Shen Zhiye drew their bows.

Shen Zhixin pulled the bow, but the arrow did not go out.

Although Shen Zhiyong pulled the bow and arrow, he missed the target.

In the end, Le Yao and Ting Yao didn't even raise their bows and arrows.

Shen Jinyao walked up to the Meng brothers and said, "See, this is why I chose you. You can do what we can't, and we need you."

Shen Jinyao spoke sincerely, and Meng Dabian no longer had any concerns.

She asked Zong Cheng to take the Meng brothers with her, and then she would follow them and train the children of the Shen family.

Even more practice is needed.

Tingyao and Leyao were obviously interested in bows and arrows, and Shen Jinyao promised to buy them a pair.

The Shen family was very lively, but the villagers couldn't understand it.

They were just busy cleaning their own house.

There have been no more earthquakes in the past two days.

They decided to return to their own home.

The Shen family also started moving things back, and Shen Jinyao took the four brothers Shen Zhiyong to the city to buy things.

In addition to buying some weapons, she also bought a carriage and several horses.

She joked with Zong Cheng, "Zong Cheng, are we becoming more and more like an escort agency now?"

Zong Cheng scratched his head and chuckled.

With the addition of the Meng brothers and Ergou, their team has indeed become much larger.

Their number also increased from twenty-two at the beginning of their exile to thirty.

The Shen family stayed in Changshou Village for another ten days, and she asked a doctor to take her pulse again.

The doctor said that the old lady's injury would require three months of recovery, and the third lady's fetus was finally stable.

She can walk around now.

Mrs. Shen is now more than four months old. The doctor said that she can do some exercise and act like a normal person.

So, Mrs. Shen and the third wife no longer stayed in the room all the time.

Mrs. Shen always appeared in the kitchen, and the third wife always followed Zong Cheng and others to watch them practice martial arts.

During these ten days, the four brothers did all the housework.

They went from being in chaos at the beginning to becoming more skilled.

With the addition of the Meng brothers and Ergou, his martial arts practice became more and more vigorous.

The main reason is that Shen Zhiyong is very dissatisfied with Ergou.

I swear to beat Ergou.

One night, Shen Jinyao called Mrs. Shen and the children into the room.

She told everyone about her trip to Baoyunling.

The people in the room were either the wife or the young ladies and gentlemen, all of whom were the most important people in the Shen family. Shen Jinyao had no intention of hiding anything.

"Things are murky inside Baoyun Ridge. The county magistrate is colluding with the Second Prince. They're disregarding human life and concealing their true identity. I completely refuse to believe a man like him who claims my father supports him."

"We must stay away from the Second Prince from now on."

"Also, I bought a mine with my own money. Let's see how to do business when we get to Quzhou."

Shen Jinyao told the Meng brothers that she didn't want them to talk about the dangers in Baoyun Ridge, and only said that she had spent money to buy the mine.

In this way, the minerals in Shen Jinyao's space can be taken out in the future.

Madam Shen took Shen Jinyao's hand and said, "Jin'er, thank you for your hard work."

Everyone in the room thought so.

Who would have thought that Shen Jinyao actually entered Baoyun Ridge and bought the so-called mine.

Even Shen Tingyao had to admire Shen Jinyao this time.

During the time that Shen Jinyao was away, she felt more worried than ever before.

She was worried about something happening at home and about Shen Jinyao getting into trouble.

After Shen Jinyao comes back, she can live leisurely again.

Shen Jinyao looked at the people in the room and said, "It's just that we don't have much money anymore, and there are more of us, so we must be frugal."

When Shen Jinyao said this, she was looking at Tingyao.

Shen Tingyao puffed her lips, but ultimately said nothing.

Of course Shen Jinyao is rich, and there is endless money in her space.

One reason she said this was to tell everyone that she had indeed bought the mine.

Besides, she didn't know what the road ahead would be like, so there was no harm in saving some money.

"Start packing tomorrow, and we'll set off for Raozhou the day after tomorrow."

Madam Shen nodded and said, "Indeed, we have been delayed here for quite a long time."

Madam Shen sighed, "I wonder how the master and the others are doing."

The room was silent for a while because of this heavy topic.

Shen Jinyao couldn't help but wonder, if they were having such a hard time, would Shen's father and others who were detained have an easy time?

Shen Jinyao couldn't guess what God meant.

All she can do now is to protect the safety of everyone in the Shen family.

……

The next day, everyone started packing their bags.

Shen Jinyao specially added a big umbrella to the carriage.

She had a craftsman make this specifically for her. When it's opened, it prevents rain from hitting the roof.

When the sun is strong, it can also block the sun.

To prevent rain, Shen Jinyao kept these umbrellas open every day.

She had five carriages, and she drove the carriage specifically for storing miscellaneous items, commonly known as warehouses.

The rest of the people either rode horses or took carriages, and she was no longer needed to make arrangements.

On the day they left, the village chief came to see them off.

Ergou also went to say goodbye to several families who had been kind to him.

As a result, they were twenty days behind schedule.

On the way to Raozhou, they planned to stop only once.

That is Ancheng, the border between Raozhou and the Western Regions.

According to Zongshi, there are a lot of Western things there.

Shen Jinyao plans to go to the nearby market to purchase goods.

After all, she still has plenty of space.

But the closer they got to Ancheng, the more Shen Jinyao noticed Ergou's uneasiness.

Ergou, who had never cared about anything, was always looking around.

There was also some obvious absent-mindedness.

Even Le Yao and Zhiye noticed his abnormality.

Before entering the city, Shen Jinyao found Ergou.

"Ergou, you've been here."

Shen Jinyao used an affirmative sentence, not a question.

After being surprised, Ergou nodded.

"I've been here."
