You confiscated my property, I exiled you, why are you crying when the treasury is empty?

Song Ying nodded, "Indeed, they are all."

Wu Qianyun was about to put the remaining banknotes back into Song Ying's hands, "Where's the money I paid?"

"Mother, have you forgotten that our property was confiscated and we were exiled?"

Wu Qianyun took back the half-handed banknote.

"Wasn't it shipped away in advance?"

"We were all shipped to Lingnan in advance. We were penniless when we were taken away. If it weren't for these thousands of taels of silver from my mother's family, we probably wouldn't have survived until now."

As the two were talking, there was a loud bang, and huge rocks from the top of the mountain mixed with soil rolled down and landed exactly where they were supposed to go.

That part of the team was smashed and buried in the earth.

The soil on the mountain was still falling. There was no time to rescue people, so everyone ran to a safe place.

The incident happened suddenly and Su Wanning was also startled. The oxen in the ox cart also ran around desperately because of the fright.

Zhan Lingfeng tried to pull the ox in another direction, but he couldn't move it. Seeing the soil falling towards them, Su Wanning shouted, "Zhan Beiwang!"

Zhan Beiwang also knew that this play could no longer go on.

Jump up.

After pulling Zhan Lingfeng to a safe place, he looked back and saw that the original ox cart had been buried under a thick layer of mountain soil.

Another quarter of an hour later, the mountain stopped sliding.

Everyone was relieved to have escaped.

The people of the Zhan family looked at Zhan Beiwang standing in front of them in disbelief.

"Wang'er, are you okay with your injuries?" Song Ying pulled Zhan Beiwang over and asked with concern.

Zhan Beiwang nodded, "I've recovered." Then he looked at Wu Qianyun, "So grandma, I can take care of myself from now on."

Wu Qianyun pulled Zhan Beiwang over and patted his hand with trembling hands, "I'm glad you're okay."

Then he pulled Liu Yan'er from behind him to him and introduced her to Zhan Beiwang, "This is Yan'er, your distant cousin."

Zhan Beiwang glanced at Liu Yan'er and nodded, indicating that he understood.

It was the first time that Liu Yan'er was so close to Zhan Beiwang. She glanced at Zhan Beiwang and lowered her head shyly.

Wu Qianyun did not miss the look in Liu Yan'er's eyes. She knew that Liu Yan'er would fall in love with Zhan Beiwang at first sight.

Song Ying took Su Wanning's hand and smiled with relief, "I told you that Wanning would be our family's lucky star. If we hadn't lifted the ox cart stuck in the mud, we would have been the ones in trouble."

"Mother is right. If it weren't for sister-in-law getting into trouble, we would have been in trouble." Zhan Lingfeng echoed from the side.

Cui Peifeng and his family also came over to express their gratitude. If Zhong Jingnan had not seen that the Zhan family did not catch up and asked him to go and help, their family would have escaped the disaster.

Several people looked at each other and smiled.

The officers following behind the team reacted and began to count the number of people on their side.

The boulder fell right in the middle of the team. There were only about thirty people left on their side, and no one knew how many were left on the other side of the boulder.

Everyone sat down to rest, and soon the sun came out.

The temperature gradually rose, and their pots, pans, and utensils were all on the ox cart, so they had no containers even if they wanted to cook.

"Let's dig out the ox cart now while the temperature is still low. After all, all our things are on it," Su Wanning suggested.

Several people looked at each other and stood up.

There was nothing to dig, so they cut down a few trees at the foot of the mountain and made them into the shape of shovels.

Su Wanning looked for space, but there was no big shovel. Even if there was one, she would not show it to everyone.

There are still military shovels, but they are a bit small.

She walked up and tried to see if she could collect the entire collapsed soil into the space.

The result is naturally a failure.

Su Wanning walked to the pile of soil that was pressing down the ox cart and dug the soil in front of her with a military shovel. The soil was loose and easy to dig.

At first, Su Wanning threw the dug soil aside. In order to save trouble, Su Wanning directly collected the soil into the space.

After a while, walk to the side and put all the soil down.

After digging for a long time, they still couldn't find any trace of the ox cart.

Because of digging, Su Wanning had already digested the two buns she had eaten in the morning.

Now that I stopped, I felt very hungry.

He walked to the side, took out a bun from the cloth bag and started eating.

While I was eating, I looked over the road and saw a group of people coming over on horseback.

Only when I got closer did I see that they were people from the Qingcheng government office.

After getting off the horse, he exchanged some words with the officers of the exile team.

A lot of shovels were taken out from the ox cart at the back.

Each household in the exile team was required to send one person to dig the road.

Zhan Lingfeng wanted to take the shovel directly, but was stopped by Zhan Beiwang.

"You take a rest first."

Su Wanning walked over, took out a few buns and handed them to Zhan Lingfeng, "Eat quickly."

When Zhan Lingfeng smelled the aroma of the buns, his appetite was aroused and he growled a few times.

With the help of the iron cattail, the ox cart was also dug out by everyone, but the ox had long since died.

Fortunately, all the things were on the ox cart. I took the pots and pans and looked at the cow that had died.

Su Wanning thought of several ways to eat beef.

But before Su Wanning could think more, the leader of the Qingcheng yamen runners walked up to the cow.

Su Wanning then realized that cows are laborers and generally cannot be eaten. But she didn't know whether this dead cow buried alive in the soil could be eaten.

He walked over to the leading yamen runner and asked, "Sir, can I eat this cow?"

The leader checked and found the cow was dead. He stood up and said, "You can eat it."

Su Wanning immediately called Zhan Lingfeng over and started dismembering the cow on the spot.

After removing the inedible parts, there is still a lot left.

Su Wanning took out half of the beef and handed it to the leading yamen runner, "My lord, we are here. Thanks to you. If we had waited a day, I'm afraid the meat would have gone bad."

The leading yamen runner glanced at Su Wanning and said, "You guys should keep it for yourself. We have to dig the road and don't have time to go back and cook."

"Then I'll make some extra lunch, and I hope you'll do me the honor later."

Su Wanning took out the big pot they had used for hot pot before, and Zhan Yiran took the dry firewood off the ox cart.

I cut off a lot of beef and made a big pot of tomato stewed beef brisket.

I used another smaller pot to make a lot of braised beef.

Zhan Yiran looked at what Su Wanning took out, leaned over, and pointed at the tomatoes on the cutting board, "Why do you still have this thing?"

Su Wanning took a look and was about to ask what was wrong, but then she realized that there should be no tomatoes in this place.

Even if there is, it is imported from other places.

"What's the problem with this?" Su Wanning asked.

"This fruit is called wolf peach. It was tributed by foreign vassal states. It is a fruit that can be eaten directly. Are you cutting it open to prepare for cooking?" Zhan Yiran looked at Su Wanning in surprise.

"Yes, this thing can also be fried and eaten directly."

Su Wanning scooped up the tomatoes with a kitchen knife and put them into the pot.

The fragrance soon began to spread.
