Zhou Da was one of them now. He and Mo Yu each carried a corpse out of the city. After dealing with the corpses, they put Xu Laoer and the other two into sacks and placed them on a newly bought ox cart. They then loaded the ox cart with luggage, as well as food and new quilts that Zhou Da could not take away, filling the cart completely.

Zhou Da also hired two donkey carts from the carriage and horse shop to prepare for the move. In fact, there was nothing to take with him, and he didn't want any furniture. He would buy new ones when he arrived in the provincial capital.

When Mrs. Zhou woke up, she didn't expect the weather to have changed. Seeing her husband's face covered with bruises, she was almost frightened to death.

Zhou Da quickly explained to his wife that bandits broke into the inn last night and wanted to attack the Mu brothers and sisters. Mo Yu killed two of the bandits, and the rest escaped. He was afraid that they would not give up and would come back to kill again.

Therefore, Master Mu suggested that they take refuge in the city. Besides, Miss Mu's Jin Yuhe backpack also wanted to open a shop in the city, and they would look after the shop for Miss Mu when the time came. It was a good opportunity for their son to study in the city.

Zhou Da took out a silver note of six hundred taels and gave it to his wife, saying that it was the settlement fee given by Mr. Mu.

"Ah!" Madam Zhou was still a little confused: "Going to the provincial capital? Opening an embroidery shop? This, this..." It seemed a little unreal.

Seeing that she was still in a daze, Zhou Da urged her, "Hurry up and pack your bags. Let's get out of here quickly. The bandits will be back for revenge soon. If you delay any longer, you'll lose your life. Let's go!"

When Mrs. Zhou heard that the bandits were coming, she looked at her husband's face again and shuddered.

"Oh! Okay, okay, then what about Miss Mu and the others after we leave? Won't they go to the capital with us? Those damn bandits! They will definitely not let them go."

Zhou Dadao: "They have already left, you don't have to worry."

"Oh, that's good. I'll go tell Madam Wang then."

"No need. If you get too close to her, it will implicate her. I've already asked Fuqi to send her a letter. When we get to the capital, we'll find a shop. Once we have one, Miss Mu will have someone contact Madam Wang. She can just make the bags at home and deliver them to the capital in the future."

So Madam Zhou felt relieved and packed her luggage. When she went out and saw the blood in the yard, she almost fainted again. This time she really believed that the bandits would kill people and she really couldn't stay in this house anymore.

So Zhou Da, along with his wife and Fuqi, went to the county town to pick up his son and helped him withdraw from school. He then went to the merchant company and found a caravan that often stayed at their inn, and took the caravan's carriage to the provincial capital.

Two days later, Zhou Da and his family finally arrived at Jiangzhou Prefecture.

In the morning, Mo Yu had already prepared the carriage and the ox cart for the luggage. They only needed to wait for Mu Qingcheng to wake up before they could set off.

Yun Qing was sitting in the room drinking tea when he suddenly stood up and said to Xiao Hei.

"No more waiting, let's go now."

Mo Yu was shocked: "But, Miss Mu hasn't woken up yet!"

Yun Qing was already walking towards Mu Qingcheng's room. "She starts asking questions as soon as she wakes up. How annoying! Just throw her in the carriage and take her away."

Mo Yu: "..." The master is - sick again. Mo Yu was so angry. How could the master treat Miss Mu like this! Isn't this turning his back on her? The master is really - hateful.

He wanted to hit someone, but he couldn't do it, so he stood at the door and stomped his feet.

Yun Qing was not as tough as he said. In fact, he felt a little guilty. If she saw Zhou Da's face full of injuries, he was afraid that she would see the blood all over the yard.

So he wrapped the sleeping Mu Qingcheng tightly with his cloak and personally carried her into the carriage.

He was also afraid of the carriage's bumps, so he padded the carriage with two quilts. He placed Mu Qingcheng on the soft quilts and sat on a hard bench beside them.

Mo Yu: "..." This is what the master said about throwing it into the carriage. This is too casual.

Mu Qingcheng was also sitting in the carriage with a confused look on her face. With her messy hair, she stared at Yun Qing with wide eyes, no, stared at him with wide eyes.

The carriage swayed as it left Daxing Town. Mo Yu drove the carriage, followed by a rented ox cart.

Mu Qingcheng: "What are you doing?"

"Ahem!" Yun Qing coughed twice to hide her embarrassment: "Didn't you say you would take me to see the haunted house? Let's go today."

"Oh!" She said casually, and Yun Qing was a little disappointed. The next moment, Mu Qingcheng rushed over.

"Were you the one speaking just now? Can you speak now?"

Yun Qing smiled and said "hmm" softly.

Mu Qingcheng's cheerful laughter echoed throughout the carriage: "Where are your eyes? Can you see too?"

Yun Qing looked down and saw only a blurry figure. She was very close to him. He could smell the fragrance of gardenias on her body. The scent of her breath hit his face when she spoke. He really wanted to see the girl in front of him.

At this moment, the carriage shook. Mu Qingcheng, who had been kneeling on the floor, was about to crash into the wall of the carriage when an arm wrapped around her waist. She tried to steady herself, reaching out to grab at something, but when Yun Qing approached, she instinctively wrapped her arms around his neck.

Yun Qing was stunned. The girl was only wearing a thin nightgown, and he could feel her warm body temperature against his chest. Yun Qing felt a surge of panic. For some reason, he lifted the girl up with a force and placed her on his lap.

The carriage continued to shake, Yun Qing's arms were tightly around Mu Qingcheng, and Mu Qingcheng's arms were also tightly around Yun Qing's neck.

When Mu Qingcheng realized what was happening, she quickly withdrew her hand in shock. Yun Qing put her hand back on his shoulder.

"Sit still and don't move."

"Oh!"

But, just sit like this? Mu Qingcheng was only wearing thin pajamas, but her face was burning hot. This posture... She was so embarrassed.

"Master, Miss Mu, are you okay?"

Mo Yu was just about to open the car door to take a look when he seemed to hear Miss Mu's voice. Could it be that he had hit his head?

"It's okay, keep driving."

Yun Qing's cold voice came from the carriage.

"Yes, Master. This section of the road is not easy to walk on, you sit tight." Oh! Listen to his master's tone, cold and icy, really do not know how to sympathize with women.

Yun Qing, who was being teased by Mo Yu, held Mu Qingcheng firmly in his arms in the shaking carriage and soon regained his composure. He picked up Mu Qingcheng's fallen cloak and covered her tightly.

"This carriage was bought at a carriage shop. It's really not very good. You, you won't hit your head if you sit like this. In fact, I can't see it at all, don't worry."

Mu Qingcheng: "Oh!"

Mu Qingcheng was stunned. It was the first time she heard Yun Qing speak such a long paragraph. She didn't pay any attention to what Yun Qing said because her heart was full of a sense of accomplishment.

Yun Qing...he can finally speak!
