boom!

Lin Mo punched Madam Han in the face.

"Ahhh!"

Madam Han staggered back two steps, letting out a scream like a pig being slaughtered.

The scream startled many people.

Old Wei, the escort, came out from a nearby room with a displeased expression:

"You're making such a racket, can't you be quiet? Are you asking for a beating?"

As soon as he finished speaking, he swung the whip in his hand fiercely.

The whip struck the ground with a crisp, loud sound.

"No, officer, I wouldn't dare!" Lin Mo shook her head.

"It was this Madam Han who was unhappy that I offered you two roast chickens as a token of my respect, saying that you were not worthy of eating them."

The police are clearly responsible for escorting us, and the journey will be tough for them. What's wrong with giving them a good meal? Shouldn't we show them respect?

I couldn't stand her acting like an official's wife, so high and mighty, that's why I couldn't help but punch her to teach her a lesson.

Madam Han was so angry she felt like she was about to vomit blood. She roared, "Lin Mo, you..."

"What are you yelling for? Did I say something wrong?" Lin Mo interrupted her. "Dare you say you didn't say those things just now?"

"Yes, but..."

“That’s enough,” Lin Mo decisively interrupted her again, glancing at the escort, Old Wei, standing to the side.

“Master Wei, look, she has already admitted it. I did not falsely accuse her.”

Old Wei nodded in satisfaction, "Not bad, well done."

As he spoke, he glared at Madam Han and said, "Don't cause me any trouble. If you dare to cause me any trouble, I won't have a good time, and neither will you."

And don't use your official wife's manner here. Remember your place; you are refugees now. Keep your identity in mind.

After saying that, he walked into his room.

Damn it, what a waste of his time, none of them are easy to deal with.

Madam Han's face turned ashen.

She glared fiercely at Lin Mo and stormed towards the Han family's position.

She was so angry!

Damn Lin Mo!

Xu Mengxian didn't dare to say anything more and hurriedly followed Madam Han away.

Soon, the sharp and sarcastic voice of Madam Han could be heard from not far away.

But what does this have to do with her?

Lin Mo shrugged and turned to walk towards where they had settled.

The kang (heated brick bed) was already lit, and the area they occupied was radiating heat.

Comfortable!

Lin Mo sighed comfortably, then pulled out another package, took out a bag of steamed buns, and let everyone share them.

Seeing that the Xu family members were looking at her warily, Lin Mo was too lazy to explain and slowly ate the bun in her hand.

After finishing his meal, he finally spoke, "After you finish eating, get back to work. Continue making shoes and raincoats. Make at least four sets of raincoats."

After saying that, he started making a raincoat.

These are things I learned in my past life.

On the road to exile, with no money, you have to do everything yourself.

Otherwise they would suffer from hunger and cold and would not survive until they were exiled.

In her past life, she did everything she could to survive.

A dark glint flashed in Lin Mo's eyes.

Seeing this, Liu Ying and her son ate their buns in a few bites and then moved over to help. It was their first time making them, so their movements were a little clumsy.

Xu Wuyan asked Xu Xianyu and the others to help, and then he sat down next to Lin Mo to help as well.

Then he asked in a low voice, "Why?"

He didn't believe Lin Mo would do such a thing for no reason; she must have had ulterior motives.

Lin Mo glanced around to make sure no one was watching, then lowered her voice:

It will rain heavily tonight.

It will be drizzling again tomorrow. If I want to buy rain gear, I'll have to go to the next town.

If she remembered correctly, it would take another day to get to the next town.

Xu Wuyan suddenly realized, and looked down at the straw in her hand. No wonder she wanted to make straw raincoats.

But four sets...

enough?

Seemingly sensing his worry, Lin Mo smiled slightly, "The emperor will issue an edict tomorrow, allowing some families to buy a carriage to travel in place. The carriages will be provided by the escorts, and Lao Wei will be responsible for delivering them. Moreover, Lao Wei will be the captain of the escort team responsible for transporting us from now on."

Therefore, befriending Lao Wei will only bring them benefits, not harm.

A dark glint flashed in Xu Wuyan's eyes.

No wonder.

She certainly wouldn't waste her time; she couldn't help but look at her with inquisitive eyes.

Did I really dream about it?

Lin Mo kept her head down as she made the raincoat, without looking up. "Xu Wuyan, we're in the same boat."

Therefore, there is no need to be wary of her.

If something happens to him, I won't be able to escape either.

Xu Wuyan was taken aback for a moment, but her reaction was quick. She nodded and said, "I understand."

Just then, someone nearby shouted at them:

"Can't you guys let people rest? You're making so much noise, be quiet. If you keep making noise, don't blame me for being rude."

Xu Wuyan didn't speak, but stood up, turned around, and looked at them coldly:

"I'll say it again, who are you going to be rude to?"

As soon as the words were spoken, everyone shut their mouths and dared not say another word.

Xu Wuyan was never someone to be trifled with.

Seeing Xu Wuyan fall back down, some people still couldn't help but mutter:

"I've been walking for ages, I'm exhausted. Why not rest instead of doing all this useless stuff?"

"That's right, they don't need to rest, but we do."

"Forget it, Xu Wuyan is good at fighting, don't provoke them, just go to sleep by yourselves."

……

Lin Mo glanced at Xu Wuyan, a slight smile playing on her lips, and lowered her voice:

"I thought you would tell them that it would rain in a while."

"If I told them, would they believe me?" Xu Wuyan's face curled into a sarcastic smile.

"They might even call me a jinx, or say I'm deliberately cursing God to make it rain."

“That’s absolutely possible,” Lin Mo agreed.

Having lived through her past life, Lin Mo knew all too well the true colors of these people when faced with problems.

These people tend to shift all the blame onto others when something goes wrong.

Lin Mo composed herself and glanced at everyone:

"Just hang in there a little longer, it will be finished soon."

The surroundings quickly quieted down, and snoring could be heard from the side.

Only the Xu family, under the dim light, were busy with their own things.

Working until late at night, the Xu family members, who had been busy for a long time, finally put down their sore hands.

Lin Mo whispered to the five guards to spread the woven raincoats on the ground and sleep by the stove.

The two nannies and Xu Dapeng came up and squeezed in with them.

There was no other way; the three of them were getting old, and they would easily get sick if they stayed on the ground.

Not long after they went to sleep, it started to rain outside.

The sudden downpour woke up the people who were napping in the courtyard and extinguished the bonfires.

Then came the sound of people squeezing into the house, while those who couldn't get in were left to stand in the yard getting soaked in the rain.

Screams and curses continued.

The Xu family ignored all of this, curled up in the corner, and continued to sleep soundly.

Lin Mo, still half asleep, unconsciously moved her body toward the warm source beside her.

She had only one thought in her mind: now that there was a carriage, she absolutely had to put some blankets on it tomorrow, because it was too cold.

Her approach startled Xu Wuyan awake.

Xu Wuyan quietly looked at the little woman curled up in front of him, his eyes filled with curiosity and inquiry.

Lin Mo, what kind of woman are you?

He is very curious!

The next day.

When Lin Mo woke up, she found herself sleeping next to Xu Wuyan, and an unnatural look flashed across her face.

After getting up, I found that it was still drizzling outside, and the temperature was a bit colder than yesterday.

She shrank her neck, and only then did she fully wake up.

Lin Mo found it amusing to see many people looking at her with envy and jealousy.

It seems that quite a few people were too cold to sleep last night.

They would definitely be jealous, especially seeing that they were sleeping on a heated kang bed, especially since they had added cotton padding to their cotton-padded clothes to keep warm.

They're just as annoyed by their sarcastic remarks last night.

It seems she's stirred up another wave of hatred.

Lin Mo didn't bother with any of that. After getting up, she immediately had someone pack up and organize her things.

time does not wait.

When it's time to set off, the escorts won't give you time to pack slowly.

Therefore, they must now develop the habit of tidying up their things immediately when they get together.

They didn't even let the remaining firewood go to waste.

It's raining now, who knows if we'll be able to find dry firewood when we get to the next place.

In this cold weather, without firewood, we can't stand it.

Just then, a woman who looked unfamiliar approached and asked to buy some cotton from her.

There was no other way; they were wearing very thin clothes when they were kicked out.

When they were at the Wind and Rain Pavilion, their relatives hadn't prepared any warm clothes for them, and now that they wanted to buy some, there was nowhere to buy them.

The temperature has suddenly dropped so cold, I can't stand it.

Lin Mo shook her head. "That's all."

The other party left disappointed, but did not make things difficult for Lin Mo.

But just because she isn't in a difficult position doesn't mean no one is.

For example, Madam Han.

"I want cotton," Madam Han said sternly.

"Bring me all your cotton."

"No," Lin Mo replied even more decisively.

He gave her a cold laugh, took out a bag of steamed buns and handed it to Granny Qin, telling her to warm them up with the residual heat at the edge of the kang (heated brick bed).

After being turned away by Lin Mo, Madam Han became even more irritable.

She looked directly at Xu Wuyan, her face grim:

"She's heartless and cruel. Can you really bear to watch your grandfather freeze?"

Xu Wuyan shook his head:

"The cotton is gone."

The Han family is large; if we squeeze in, Grandpa won't go cold. Now is the time for you to show your filial piety.

Madam Han was furious.

Gritting teeth:

"Good, very good, truly a united couple!"

After saying that, he stormed off.
