My treasure bowl connects the past and present; I've won everything on my journey into exile.

“It’s her!” Xu Wuyan nodded, squinting his eyes.

"Hurry up!" Lin Mo urged him to hurry up and get the carriage ready.

When the carriage caught up with her, Lin Mo told Xu Wuyan to stop.

Then she jumped down from the carriage, shouting, "Li Ping!"

Li Ping turned around at the sound of the voice, and when she saw Lin Mo, she naturally grinned, but quickly frowned:

"Aren't you feeling unwell?"

Are you feeling better? How did you manage to run out like that?

Lin Mo shook her head. "I'm fine."

She looked at the things Li Ping had placed on either side of her. "What's going on?"

How did you manage to carry all that back yourself? Come on, let's get in the carriage first.

As he spoke, he reached out to help her carry her things.

This terrified Li Ping, who quickly shook her head, pressing down on her hand.

"You've just recovered from your illness, so don't carry heavy things. This is a bit heavy, I can carry it myself."

"It's okay, I'm very strong, it's easy for me to carry this." Lin Mo shook her head.

She's not a porcelain doll; she's not so delicate that she can't lift something this small.

He pulled Li Ping's hand away and bent down to take it.

But a pair of large hands were faster than her, lifting it up first:

"I come!"

It is Xu Wuyan.

Lin Mo's eyes flickered as she watched Xu Wuyan stride towards the carriage carrying his belongings.

Without saying anything, she pulled Li Ping into the carriage.

Before long, Lin Mo learned the reason from Li Ping.

It turned out that her husband's family, Chen Zhihua, held a grudge against her son for not giving up his position. So after arriving in town, he said that the Chen family had not separated and were still one family, and if he took her along, he would not be able to take her along.

So they left her and her purchases in town and let the carriage go.

She originally wanted to rent an oxcart to go back, but when she asked, she found out it would cost a lot of money.

She couldn't bear to leave, so she walked back.

Li Ping looked at Lin Mo with gratitude:

"Luckily I met you all, otherwise I don't know how long I would have walked."

"Mrs. Xu, Mr. Xu, thank you."

Lin Mo frowned and shook her head:

"They only bully you because you're too easygoing."

Chen Zhihua, right?

A cold glint flashed in Lin Mo's eyes. He really wasn't a man.

Li Ping sighed, "He is my son's uncle, the patriarch of the Chen family."

If I offend him, I'm afraid it will affect my son's future.

Otherwise, how could she have tolerated all the bullying they had done along the way?

However, it was all for the sake of the child, so they chose to swallow their anger.

"Impact?" Lin Mo shook her head:

"You're overthinking it. They've already been exiled, what impact could it possibly have?"

What future are you thinking about? We're already lucky to have made it to the place of exile alive.

And given Chen Zhihua's personality, are you sure he would help your son and the others?

Honestly, if trouble comes, he'll probably push your son and the others out to take the fall for him. What you need to do is stand firm, protect your children, and protect yourself.

"It's better to rely on yourself than on others. Think about these words carefully."

Lin Mo never doubted that it could protect her from disaster.

In her past life, her mother and younger brother were pushed out.

And Li Ping's son will also be pushed out in the near future.

A dark glint flashed in Lin Mo's eyes. If Li Ping didn't change her mind, no one could help her son.

I don't want to do anything that's thankless or difficult.

Li Ping was stunned.

After that, no one spoke.

And they finally made it back to the post station as night fell.

Li Ping stepped down from the carriage, and her four children, who were waiting for her at the gate, immediately ran over:

"Mom, I miss you so much."

"Mom, you're finally back! Thank goodness you're alright, I was so worried about you."

……

Looking at the smiles on her children's thin faces, Li Ping thought of Zhao Tong, and her eyes reddened.

She looked at Lin Mo, who was alighting from the carriage behind her, her face serious:

“Mrs. Xu, you’re right. It’s better to rely on yourself than on others. I won’t give in like that again.”

All she needs to do is take care of her children and make sure they all survive.

She couldn't care about anything else.

Lin Mo nodded to her, then carried the two food boxes and walked into the post station.

Xu Wuyan carried the remaining food box inside.

The things inside the carriage remained inside the carriage.

I'll just pack it up again before I leave tomorrow.

When Lin Mo entered the room where the escorts were staying, they were drinking and playing drinking games, and the room was filled with an unpleasant smell of alcohol.

Old Wei frowned immediately upon seeing her:

"You've gotten me into trouble again?"

Lin Mo, “…”

In Lao Wei's eyes, Lin Mo was nothing but trouble.

Lin Mo shook her head dejectedly, then handed over the two food boxes she was carrying:

"I apologize for the trouble we have caused you all today, so Xu Wuyan has booked two tables at the restaurant to add some dishes for you as a way of expressing our gratitude."

After saying that, he left behind the two tall food boxes and turned to leave.

Old Wei glanced at her figure, then gestured for Xiao Liu to get it, and everyone shared it.

He then began drinking his wine with a blank expression.

……

The Xu family enjoyed their meal tonight.

After everything was tidied up, Lin Mo saw that it was just getting dark, so she asked Granny Yun to fill all the pots in the kitchen with water and start boiling them.

Once the water was boiled, she immediately rushed to pull her mother over.

At the same time, Xu Xianyu was also summoned by her.

As for Xu Mengxian, who followed her, she pretended she didn't exist.

"I'm full and don't want to eat anymore. Momo, why did you drag your mother into the kitchen?" Liu Ying shook her head.

"I didn't give you anything to eat."

Lin Mo laughed. How come her mother now only comes to the kitchen to eat?

If you're not here to eat, what are you doing in the kitchen?

Liu Ying looked puzzled.

When Liu Ying learned that Lin Mo was going to wash her hair, she quickly shook her head:

"MoMo, no one else is doing this? Won't it be too conspicuous for us to do this?"

"No," Lin Mo replied directly.

Taking advantage of Liu Ying's inattention, she directly pulled out the hairpins that held her hair in place, and then took out a soapberry:

"Mom, quickly lower your head, I'll help you wash."

Liu Ying shook her head embarrassedly:

"I don't need to wash, Momo, how about Mom helps you wash?"

"Mother, I've already washed." Lin Mo simply started washing.

If we keep wasting time talking to her mother, the water will get cold.

Sure enough, once her hair was wet, Liu Ying didn't resist anymore.

Washing my head with this hot water made my whole head feel much more comfortable.

"Mom, how are you feeling? Are you comfortable?" Lin Mo gently massaged her scalp after lathering the soap with soap.

"Mmm, that feels good." Liu Ying nodded.

Lin Mo smiled and continued washing her hair.

The Xu Xianyu sisters standing nearby were so envious.

They also wanted to wash their hair. They hadn't washed it for so long, and their heads were not only itchy, but their hair was also all oily and stuck together, which was uncomfortable.

Granny Qin, standing to the side, smiled:

"Ladies, come here quickly, let me help you wash."

They've all had their hair washed, so how could they be left out?

"Granny, you are so kind!" Xu Mengxian excitedly rushed towards Granny Qin.

Xu Xianyu looked at Lin Mo and said, "Thank you, sister-in-law."

She knew that this must have been arranged by her sister-in-law.

Xu Mengxian echoed, "Thank you, sister-in-law. You're so kind; you really understand our needs."

"Hurry up and wash, it's getting late." Lin Mo's voice was very calm.

She was washing Liu Ying's hair with a focused expression.

Because she hadn't washed her hair for a long time and had been traveling the whole way, Liu Ying's hair was very dirty. She had to change the water three times before her hair was finally clean.

As soon as Liu Ying dried her wet hair, Lin Mo pushed her to the dilapidated bathroom next to the kitchen, which looked like it hadn't been used for a long time.

Lin Mo put down two buckets of hot water and shoved her underwear into her hands:

"Mom, please make do with this quick wash first. I'll take you for a proper bath next time we pass through town."

As soon as she finished speaking, she closed the door.

Liu Ying then realized what was happening.

I glanced at the farthest corner of the bathroom and realized why I didn't feel cold; it was because of the burning brazier.

Liu Ying's eyes reddened. Her daughter was truly a sweet and considerate daughter.

"Mother, don't worry about washing. I'll keep watch outside; no one will come near."

"Outside the door," Lin Mo said.

"Yes!" Liu Ying nodded.

I started taking off my clothes and taking a shower.

Meanwhile, in the courtyard, many women who had heard the news came out of their houses.

"Can I wash my hair and take a shower? I want to wash too, my whole body is so itchy and uncomfortable."

"Me too, I want to take a shower too."

"They're all washing their hair and taking showers, so it should be okay to shower, but you just have to boil the water yourself."

……

Han Yulong, standing in the crowd, was incredibly jealous.

They can wash, and so can she. She also needs to wash her hair and take a shower. It's so uncomfortable for her. These past few days, she's wished she could shave her head.

She needs to wash too.

She had originally planned to go to Qinghe Town today to wash her hair and take a bath.

But she had neither a car nor money, so she had to give up.

Now I finally have the chance to treat myself to a good meal, and I can't miss this opportunity.

Thinking of this, Han Yulong rushed straight to the kitchen and began to speak:

"Move aside, I need to get hot water to wash my hair and take a shower."

As soon as she spoke, the people behind her swarmed forward:

"I want to get hot water to wash my hair and take a shower too!"
