Chapter 250

Du Ruo didn't know about Yang Dian Feng's suicide.

But even if she knew, she wouldn't be half grateful to Old Madam Du, and might even sincerely ask: Do you have some kind of big illness?

If you want to kill Yang Dian Feng, then kill him, don't use it as an excuse to vent for her, it's disgusting!

Du Ruo started to get busy with the matter of accompanying him for the exam.

Food, clothing, and daily necessities all have to be prepared in advance; although these things can be bought on the road, what if there is some sudden accident?

It is always good to be prepared.

Of course, it is also possible to bring nothing; after all, Du Ruo has a portable system, and she can exchange for anything she wants through the system mall, and the quality is excellent, without worries.

However, Du Ruo doesn't plan to do this.

First, there are many people and eyes, and changing things out of thin air is not easy to explain if seen by others.

Can't say she knows magic, right?

Secondly, the system's heart is really too black, and the prices are outrageously high, starting at ten taels of silver at every turn.

Ten taels of silver, you could buy two acres of land!

Du Ruo is not short of money now, but she doesn't want to be a sucker and spend money indiscriminately.

So save where you can.

Her daughter is going on such a long trip for the first time, and Zheng Shi is so worried that she can't sleep, tossing and turning on the bed.

She simply stayed up all night to make a few sets of new clothes.

This time, she didn't make them look good, but picked all plain and inconspicuous colors, and the style was also very simple and old-fashioned.

Without her son-in-law protecting her, A Man should be as ugly as possible; if she is spotted by some hooligan, it will be a big trouble!

In addition to her own preparations, Du Ruo also notified Jiang Fuzi to pack up all the items he needed to bring.

They could set off at any time.

The next day, the family went to the field again.

This time they picked two hundred pounds of chilies, twice as many as last time, and Zheng Qinghe drove the mule cart to send them to Zui Meng Ju in the county.

When they came back, the chilies were gone, but there was one more person in the mule cart.

It was the beautiful young man Jiang Zhan.

Jiang Zhan was discovered by Zheng Qinghe on the way and brought back by the way.

Like last time, the academy gave him two days off to come back and tell his family, and then he would set off for Fengyang Prefecture to participate in the prefectural exam.

Du Ruo mentioned Jiang Fuzi's matter to Jiang Zhan.

Jiang Zhan smiled, "It should be no problem, there have been such situations in previous years, as long as there is a guarantee from the academy's students, they can travel together."

"However, food, lodging, and safety must be managed by yourself; the academy is not responsible for this."

Du Ruo nodded.

The requirements are very reasonable; it was originally just to hitch a ride, and it's more reassuring to have more people.

If you want to hitch a ride for food and lodging, even if others can agree, you don't have such a thick face, right?

"Oh, by the way, A Man." Zheng Qinghe just settled the mule cart, walked over, took out a letter from his bosom, and handed it to Du Ruo, "Brother-in-law is busy with Ya Men affairs recently and can't get away, this is what he asked Shopkeeper Qiu to pass on to you."

Du Ruo took it and opened it to look.

The letter mainly mentioned three things.

The first one is about Yang Dian Feng.

Yang Dian Feng is dead.

This point was beyond Du Ruo's expectation; she didn't expect that Yang Dian Feng's childhood was so miserable, and now he died so miserably.

But Du Ruo didn't change her view of Yang Dian Feng because of this.

No matter how miserable, it is not an excuse for his dark heart and doing all kinds of bad things.

Not to mention anything else, just say Yang Dian Feng's younger brother, how innocent?

And Du Ruo herself, where did she provoke him? Why did he want to use such poisonous hands on her?

Can only say that heaven is clear, retribution is not refreshing.

Besides Yang Dian Feng, there is the matter of the old monster Bian Tai.

Bian Tai is also dead.

Just at noon today, he was beheaded at the vegetable market on West Street.

Because the old monster looked like a child and was delicate and pretty, his appearance was too deceptive, so Prefect Li specially asked people to cover his head, gag his mouth, and tie him up before sending him to the execution ground.

Externally, it was claimed to be a dwarf who had done many evils.

Otherwise, as long as the old monster cried and begged on the execution ground, and shouted grievances, there would be many people who didn't distinguish right from wrong and had overflowing Virgin hearts to stand up for him.

If it caused public anger, it would also be bad for Prefect Li's official reputation.

Both big bad guys are hung, Du Ruo suddenly felt much refreshed.

This third thing is also a good thing.

It is said that he has already found a martial arts master for her and Jiang Zhan, and he will come to join them later.

"So mysterious, not even saying what his surname is, what his name is, how old he is?" Du Ruo muttered in her heart.

But it doesn't matter.

Anyway, Jiang Li wouldn't harm her.

On the third day, Du Ruo went to the construction site again and explained to Master Lu that she was going to the prefectural city.

By the way, she took another two hundred taels of silver notes to Master Lu and let him arrange it.

Everything was ready, just waiting to set off the next day.

Originally, Jiang Zhan didn't agree to let Du Ruo go to accompany him for the exam; last time it was because his eldest brother was with him, and it was in the county, so it didn't matter.

But this time the eldest brother is not there, and they are going to Fengyang Prefecture, where they are not familiar with the place.

How could he be at ease?

Du Ruo hummed, "What if someone harms you again this time? What will you do?"

Jiang Zhan was silent for a moment, "With the academy's teacher there, I will also be alert myself, it should be fine."

"Fine is best, but what if something happens, that would be a big deal!"

Du Ruo waved her hand, "Alright, no need to say more, I have already discussed this matter with your eldest brother, listen to us."

Jiang Zhan had no choice but to close his mouth.

His sister-in-law has secrets, he knows this. And his sister-in-law has never been a reckless person; since she proposed to go, she should be sure.

Besides, the one who is most nervous about his sister-in-law is his eldest brother.

His eldest brother agreed, so what reason does he have to oppose?

So the matter was settled.

In the mid-afternoon, Zheng Shi and Chunhua were busy in the kitchen, planning to make a sumptuous farewell meal for Du Ruo and Jiang Zhan.

Zheng Qinghe and Jiang Cheng also tacitly didn't go out, and accompanied the two in the room with Jiang Wan.

Even Tie Dan rarely lay at Du Ruo's feet, looking at her from time to time.

Its eyes showed deep reluctance.

Du Ruo: "..."

She is going to send him for the exam, not to die, why are these guys doing this!

It made her feel a bit sad.

Just as she was about to say a few jokes to dilute this parting atmosphere, the courtyard gate was suddenly knocked loudly.

The visitor was Yan Pozi, followed by four old people with gray hair and trembling sticks.

It was exactly the few remaining clan elders of the Jiang family.

Before, in order to stuff Mei Niang, that is, Mei Ruxi, into the Second Branch of the Jiang family, these old guys had also visited the door and helped Yan Pozi with all kinds of nagging.

Didn't expect them to come again today.

Looking at this posture, they definitely didn't hold back any good farts.

It's a pity that today is different from the past, and they still want to use the elder's shelf to pinch her like last time, but they can't...

Du Ruo sneered in her heart, but it didn't show on her face, she still stepped forward, bowed respectfully, and called with a smile: "Grandmother, Third Grandfather, Fourth Grandfather, Sixth Grandfather."

Yan Pozi nodded and said "um."

Several clan elders grinned with toothless mouths and exchanged pleasantries, their attitude very kind.

Jiang Zhan and the other little ones also hurriedly came to pay their respects.

Yan Pozi's gaze swept over them one by one.

Jiang Zhan goes without saying, he was born handsome, and now that life at home is better, and he has hit the county's top scholar, the red energy nourishes people, like a green bamboo rising step by step, becoming more and more outstanding.

And more and more like his white-eyed wolf father Jiang Mo Nian.

Jiang Wan, that dead girl, hasn't seen her for a few months, and she can't see half of her illness.

And she has grown extremely delicate, wearing clothes made of colored brocade, not much worse than the girls of big families.

Really, not afraid of shortening her life!

The gaze moved backward.

Fortunately, Jiang Cheng is still the stupid look from before, except for being fatter and taller, there is no other change.

Yan Pozi felt a little more comfortable in her heart.

Then she opened her mouth slowly, "Eldest Daughter-in-law, Second Son, you stay, Grandmother has something to tell you."

The implication is to let Jiang Cheng and the others walk away.

Jiang Cheng was very reluctant, but there was no way, so he had to call Zheng Qinghe, and the two went to the vegetable field behind the courtyard.

Jiang Wan rolled her eyes and ran out.

The dog followed immediately.

Yan Pozi didn't wait for Du Ruo to invite her, walked into the room by herself, and sat down at the table.

Several clan elders followed closely.

Du Ruo looked at Jiang Zhan and stepped in.

"Grandmother, if you have anything to say, just say it." Du Ruo sat opposite Yan Pozi, looking calm and relaxed.

Yan Pozi frowned.

Actually sat down without waiting for her elder to speak, really half-educated.

But thinking of the purpose of coming today...

Yan Pozi pulled the drooping corners of her mouth and asked, "Eldest Daughter-in-law, I heard that you and Second Son are going to Fengyang Prefecture?"
