When Song Liangji and the others heard what Song Yao said, they were stunned, and everyone's face turned pale in an instant.

His eyes were filled with fear of the gang of robbers!

Because Song Shu made such a mistake, the emperor did not take their lives, but only exiled their entire family.

I have finally saved my life, but now I am about to face another group of robbers. Isn't my head like it is hanging on my belt?

Su Zhen's eyes showed obvious worry. "Ayao, Lingtai Village has been occupied by bandits. If we pass through Lingtai Village, they will definitely find us. Then won't all of us be at their mercy?"

Song Yao didn't say anything. Everyone was anxious, especially Song Jiaqi and Song Liangji, who were so anxious that they started pacing back and forth.

After thinking for a while, Song Yao looked at Song Yuanbo and said, "Dad, take two people to the cloth shop to buy some cloth. Let's go right away."

After saying that, Song Yao took out two taels of silver and handed it to Song Yuanbai, "You don't need to buy something too expensive, ordinary linen will do."

Although Song Yuanbo was confused, since Song Yao didn't say anything, he didn't ask. He went out and called two followers and left.

Su Zhen frowned, confused, "Ayao, why do you want to buy linen?"

Song He asked in confusion, "Sister, why did you buy linen?"

Song Yao patted Song He's shoulder with a smile in her eyes, "You'll know when the time comes."

Seeing that she was keeping it a secret, Song He didn't ask any more questions.

Song Yao looked at Song Jiaqi and the others. The smile on her face disappeared, and there was no expression on her delicate and pretty face. "I have already thought of a way to deal with those bandits. You can go back and rest."

Seeing that Song Yao said this, they didn't say anything else and left the room.

There was a cloth shop not far from the inn, and soon Song Yuanbai bought a piece of cloth.

He not only bought cloth, but also scissors, thread, needles, etc.

Seeing that Song Yuanbai had even bought needles and thread, a glint of joy flashed in his eyes, "Dad, I was planning to ask the shopkeeper to lend me needles and thread, but I didn't expect you to buy them all!"

Song Yuanbai asked her, "So I bought the right one?"

Song Yao nodded, "Yes. Dad, Mom, you two should rest first. Sister-in-law, Ah He, you two should follow me."

The two followed Song Yao back to the room, where candles had already been lit.

The flickering candlelight illuminated the room.

Song Yao sat at the table, dipped her fingers in tea, and drew the shape of a mask on the table.

Neither E Yu nor Song He had ever seen it before, so when they saw this strange painting, their eyes were full of confusion.

Song Yao explained, "This is a mask. It can protect against many germs. If you wet the mask, it can also prevent you from inhaling some harmful fumes. I bought these cloths so that you two can make some masks as soon as possible in case of emergency."

After that, Song Yao used scissors to cut a mask shape. Considering the function of the mask, she cut three layers.

She folded the cloth and handed it to E Yu, teaching her how to sew it.

E Yu is very good at needlework. If it comes to sewing, she can learn it after just one lesson.

Soon, E Yu sewed a mask. Song Yao handed her two ropes and asked her to sew them at the designated positions. Then she took the sewn mask, put it on her mouth and nose, and tied it with ropes at the back. A complete mask was born.

Neither E Yu nor Song He had expected that this mask could be used in this way!

Song Yao took off the mask and handed it to E Yu, "You guys take a rest first. It won't be too late to do it after we leave tomorrow."

She yawned and stood up from the bench. "I'm so sleepy. I'll wash my face before going to bed."

Huaying had already fetched the water. Song Yao washed her face and feet, then lay down on the bed early.

She was exhausted both physically and mentally recently, and fell asleep soon after lying down.

In the middle of the night, Song Yao turned over and heard E Yu's voice, so she opened her eyes and looked.

As a result, I saw Song He and E Yu still sewing masks there.

Song Yao couldn't open her eyes, so she closed them. However, she still called out to them, asking them to go to bed early and not to rush.

E Yu and the others agreed, looked at each other, smiled, and continued to sew masks.

With the sound of birds singing, the sun rose from the east, and the sunlight shone into the house through the paper window. A ray of warm sunlight just happened to shine on Song Yao.

Considering that they were going to Fengzhou and the journey was long, for safety reasons, they no longer wore those gorgeous clothes, but only wore a plain white dress bought yesterday.

Her black hair was tied into a simple bun, and the rest of her black hair was casually draped over her shoulders. Across the bun were a simple jade hairpin and a low-key tea-white velvet butterfly hairpin.

Her skin was as white as cream and her appearance was stunning. The plain white dress brought out her fresh and refined temperament, making her look like a fairy walking out of a painting.

After seeing Song Yao's outfit, E Yu and Song He both stayed where they were.

Seeing their stunned expressions, Song Yao walked up to them puzzledly, "Why are you staring at me like that? Don't I look good in this?"

Song Yao had never worn plain clothes. In the past, she wore brocade and silk, and wore gold and silver hairpins, which perfectly demonstrated her noble temperament as a princess.

But now, she was wearing a plain white dress, which was in stark contrast to her previous appearance. No wonder they were both surprised when they saw her.

Song He came back to his senses, took Song Yao's hand, with a mischievous smile in his eyes, "Sister, you are so beautiful, just like a fairy descending to the earth, really, you are so beautiful."

E Yu stood there dignifiedly, a gentle smile on her face, "Ayao, this skirt sets off your beauty. If Prince Heng saw it, he would probably regret divorcing you."

Song Yao looked at E Yu, a smile flickering in the corners of her eyes and eyebrows, "Sister-in-law, please don't laugh at me."

E Yu walked up to Song Yao, his expression becoming more serious. "Ayao, you divorced him. Have you made any plans for the future?"

E Yu did not want Song Yao to divorce Prince Heng because Prince Heng was the emperor's most beloved son. If Song Yao followed him, she would be Prince Heng's concubine whom no one would dare to bully.

Even if Prince Heng's heart is not with her, she is still the high and mighty Princess Heng!

Moreover, if she becomes tough, Xu Lingyi will be no problem at all.

It has been six days since they left the capital, and they have never asked Song Yao a single question because they were afraid that she would be unhappy and that they would hurt her feelings.

Now that there was no one around, E Yu was also worried about Song Yao, so he couldn't help but ask her a question.

Song Yao didn't want them to ask these questions because the original owner was already dead. She died because of Xiao Chi and Xu Lingyi.

Therefore, from the moment she stepped out of Prince Heng's Mansion, she had no intention of mentioning this matter again.

"Sister-in-law, we have been exiled now. From now on, I will only think about how to survive, so I will not think about those romantic matters!" Song Yao's clear and bright eyes moved slightly, "I know you are worried about me, but I am no longer a child. I know what to do."

When E Yu heard her words, he pursed his lips and smiled, then reached out and patted her shoulder gently, "I'm glad you understand."

Song Yao twitched her lips and frowned, "Come to think of it, sister-in-law, Ah He, did you two not sleep all night?"
