You Are Not In Exile, You Are Clearly Traveling!

Chapter 10: carriage

Chapter 10 Carriage

Chen's father flattered him and offered him some money. Although he refused, he was still persuaded by Chen's father. After all, it was rare to find a yamen servant who was easy to talk to, so he had to be on good terms with him.

After Xu Yuan left, several people gathered around the big baggage to study it. After unpacking it, they found that there were many things, including pots and pans, grains, rice and noodles.

Of course, there are also a lot of dry food and cakes.

In fact, the yamen servants did not care about the prisoners cooking at home on the way to exile, because the prisoners cooked their own meals, and the yamen servants could easily find opportunities to eat and drink.

Moreover, prisoners can save a lot of food by finding ingredients to cook by themselves. After all, in order to prevent prisoners from starving to death, the court will also arrange their meals on the way to exile.

Although it is just steamed buns, coarse grains and pancakes, there are also several carriages. If the prisoners do not want to eat, the yamen can secretly sell them and the money will be divided among themselves.

So, they dont care about the prisoners cooking their own meals.

Father Chen checked and found that in addition to the basic bundle of firewood, rice, oil and salt, the other bundles were filled with steamed buns, sesame cakes and even preserved fruits.

The most important thing is the jerky.

Even though they are the same pancakes, they are made of thin noodles, have different tastes, and come with various fillings.

Without Chen Yuans instructions, the servants had already taken the initiative to pick up the pots and pans and lit a fire to cook. The steamed buns and sesame cakes were already cold and needed to be eaten with hot soup.

Of course, it was also because there were so many of them, and this little food was simply not enough to feed so many people, so they had to save a little. After all, the road to exile was long.

The masters can eat steamed buns and stuff, but the servants can only drink more hot soup to fill their stomachs.

Fortunately, Father Chen was not a harsh person, so he asked his servants to cook some rice porridge to fill his stomach, so that he would not starve to death.

The servants were cooking, but Chen Xue didn't interfere. Instead, she gathered in a circle with Xiaodie and Chen's mother and ate pastries secretly.

After all, the steamed buns and sesame pancakes were so hard that they couldn't eat them. In order not to force themselves, Chen Xue started to move things from the space.

They were in a circle anyway, and everyone saw that the government servants were giving them food, but they didnt know what they were giving, so even if they were seen eating, they didnt have to worry about being exposed.

Girl, you eat first!

Seeing a few pieces of cake wrapped in a handkerchief, Xiaodie did not take action. Instead, she planned to wait for Chen Xue to eat first, lest she would be hungry if she ate them.

Dont worry, there are plenty.

Chen Xue was a little moved when she saw her caring expression, and touched her head with her little hand.

Then, as if to change her ways, she took out a few pastries from behind. Not only that, she also took out grapes and other fruits.

If you set up a barbecue grill, it will be like an outing.

By the time the servants prepared the food and asked them to eat, the three of them were already full.

However, they didn't say that. They still pretended to have nothing to eat, and each of them took a bun and counted it as their meal.

Father Chen was wondering how the three of them could only eat one bun so tacitly. Just when he was about to ask, his daughter gave him a look. He thought of her magical method and didn't say more.

After he was full, he asked his servants to eat the remaining rice porridge and steamed buns.

Dang, Dang, Dang!

At this time, the government officials were beating gongs and drums, indicating that they were about to set off. Everyone quickly packed up their things and prepared to continue on their way.

"no!"

Father Chen suddenly frowned, "If we go like this, we won't be able to finish the journey of several thousand miles before we collapse."

It doesn't matter if he is tired, his wife and daughter cannot be exhausted, so he must find a carriage. No, a carriage will definitely not work, but a donkey cart will also work.

Thinking of this, he discussed it with his wife and daughter. Chen Xue nodded. She had already had this idea.

Dad, take this money, you will definitely need it for work.

Father Chen took the silver and went to Xu Tian, the yamen servant just now. After saying a few words to him, he patted his head.

"I made a mistake. Why did I forget this? Mr. Chen, don't worry, leave it to me!"

Having not left the capital yet, there were people everywhere, and there happened to be a village nearby, so Xu Tian spent money to buy an old carriage.

The Chen family didn't expect Xu Tian to be so efficient at work, and he actually got a carriage, which made them very happy, and they finally didn't have to walk.

Although they have only been gone for less than two hours, they feel like they have been gone for a century.

Seeing Xu Tian getting a carriage for the Chen family, Zhao Guang suddenly became anxious. He also thought that the Chen family could not bear the torture and died of exhaustion. With the carriage, how would he achieve his goal.

Xu Tian, what are you doing!

"Don't you know that these people are criminals? Who let them ride in the carriage!"

Xu Tian had been entrusted by several adults to take good care of Mr. Chen, and he also admired Mr. Chen very much, so when he heard Zhao Guang's words, he responded unceremoniously.

"What's wrong with the prisoner? Who said prisoners can't ride in carriages? Who made the rule?"

Didnt you arrange carriages for prisoners to sit in before? Why, you can do it, but I cant?

"you"

Zhao Guang looked very ugly. He had indeed done this before. After all, it was the order from above, and the main reason was that he gave too much.

Whats the noise, whats the noise!

At this time, the captain of the government office came over, and Zhao Guang quickly ran over to complain.

The captain glanced at Xu Tian and then at Chen Yuan, then turned and left, "Keep on going. If there is a delay, let's see how many lives you still have left to kill."

Obviously, he did not express any opinion about the Chen family's carriage ride.

After all, they didnt commit any crime, and there were no rules.

Besides, although someone above asked them to stumble Chen Yuan, several adults also sent him letters asking him to take care of Chen Yuan.

Hum, let him stumble, and at the same time, let him take care of you.

What can he do?

Neither party can afford to offend them, so they can only collect the money, turn a blind eye, and ignore everything. Anyway, outsiders cannot know what happened on the Exile Road.

Zhao Guang's face turned dark when he saw that the captain didn't care, and he left angrily. Immediately, a ruthless look flashed in his eyes, "It seems that I still have to do it myself."

Chen Xue and others ignored Zhao Guang who left, and came to Xu Tian to express their gratitude.

He was praised by Mr. Chen, and his daughter told him how awesome he was. He was praised to the heavens and felt very happy.

Seeing this, other prisoners approached Xu Tian one after another and asked him to help find a carriage. They were not short of money.

hehe!

Xu Tian sneered, I'm sorry, I'm not short of money either.

Seeing Xu Tian throw up his sleeves and leave, everyone looked at each other and couldn't understand why they were helping Chen Yuan when he and others even gave him money and he was unwilling to help.

Is it possible that its because you gave the money yourself?

With no choice but to find other government officials for help.
