Yang Xi did not go to see the Yan family. The Yan family had long since lost the right to speak. Another Guo family came forward and said, "When I was hiding, I didn't know that I could go south. When my eldest daughter and the two girls from the clan reached the age, they and I

The person introduced by Manager Ye got married."

Mrs. Guo paused and continued: "There is also Miss Ning Xi. She took the initiative to stay and cover Manager Ye, so she also stayed in the north."

With that said, he gave way to Ms. Ning Xi’s mother, Mrs. Xiao.

Yang Xi's attention fell on Madam Xiao. The woman looked to be in her thirties, wearing coarse clothes, her hair was arranged meticulously, her hands were calloused and clean, she motioned Madam Xiao to step forward and speak.

.

Zhu Hong poured a cup of tea for Mrs. Xiao with a wink, and Mrs. Xiao hurriedly said: "Thank you, miss."

Zhu Hong stepped back and stood back to her original position, and then Yang Xi asked, "Can you introduce yourself?"

Mrs. Xiao took a sip of tea. She hadn't drunk such good tea for a long time. After savoring the sweetness after the bitterness, she smiled sincerely, "I was born in the Geng family and lived in the same house. I have a son and a daughter with my husband.

We were lucky, we got sick when we were running away in the early years."

Yang Xi took the initiative to sort out the important information, and Xiao's son went south smoothly. Now he is in the Zhou family school, and his only daughter stayed behind to help Ye Shun. Looking at the sadness in Xiao's eyes, he knew better.

The Guo family was just a member of the Geng family. Fortunately, the whole family escaped with her. She envied the Xiao family for being in the eyes of a nobleman, and whispered: "Back then, Madam Xiao and Young Master Maru had such a good relationship that they were the same person."

It's a pity that the loving couple couldn't stay together forever. They all thought that Mrs. Xiao would go with them, but they didn't expect that Ms. Xiao would stand up for her children.

Yang Xi motioned to Mrs. Xiao to continue sitting and resting. She was not in a hurry to ask who her son was. Instead, she asked some questions to the other female family members of the Geng family. After confirming that the daughters of several families were indeed introduced to the marriage by Ye Shun, Yang Xi responded to this question.

Some of them have a better impression.

Being able to enter Ye Shunyan shows that these female family members have clear minds.

In the end, Yang Xi found out that Xiao's son was Geng Hua, and suddenly recalled, "I remember the two-character names of the girls from the Geng family."

Mrs. Xiao's eyes were filled with helplessness and fondness, "She changed her name herself."

Yang Xi smiled, "You are a very thoughtful girl."

She is also very courageous and can get into Ye Shun's eyes, which shows that the little girl has her own abilities.

Mrs. Xiao's calm eyes became brighter when she mentioned her daughter, "She was the first to learn martial arts. In order to practice martial arts, she even encouraged the sisters in the clan. I thought she wouldn't be able to persist. Unexpectedly, this girl not only persisted, but also did something to herself.

Go and be cruel."

She always remembered that her daughter was crying when she was tired and said that only by relying on her own ability could she live well.

Yang Xi patted Mrs. Xiao's hand and said, "Ye Shun will protect her. You made it to Ruizhou smoothly and you don't have to hide around in the future."

Mrs. Xiao was anxious to see her son, but she didn't dare to ask any more questions.

After Yang Xi learned about the situation of the Geng family members, it was better than she expected. She knew how Yan and Geng Jue's daughter died. She could guess it even if Ye Shun didn't explain it clearly.

Zhou Yu waited for the female members of the Geng family to leave before returning to the house. As soon as he came in, he saw his wife thinking deeply, "What are you thinking about?"

Yang Xi raised her head, "Mr. Yan was too silent. She didn't think much about it when she ran away. In the past two years, will Ms. Yan become suspicious of Ye Shun?"

Mrs. Yan is not an ignorant woman. As long as she calms down and thinks about it, she will still have doubts even if there is no evidence.

Zhou Yu sat down and waited for the tea set on the table to be removed and replaced with his own tea set. While making tea, Zhou Yu said: "Geng Jue is a smart man."

What Geng Jue cares most about is the prosperity of the Geng family, so the only major event in Geng Jue's mind is Geng Liao's marriage. As for his daughter's life and death, Geng Jue has been suppressed and is afraid of being mentioned again.

Zhou Yu added: "The Geng family is already very lucky."

Yang Xi took the tea cup and took a sip of tea to calm down, "I don't know when I will see Ye Shun."

It has been many years since Ye Shun left. The credit for Ye Shun's achievements in these years will go to Ye Qiheng.

Zhou Yu sighed, "This year marks the fifth year of troubled times. I hope that the disputes can be ended in the tenth year of troubled times."

The couple talked about Ye Shun. Ye Shun's life was not easy. Even though they and their daughter were walking together with a strong and hard-working family, people would still look at them covertly from time to time.

Geng Ningxi didn't even dare to get off the carriage, and she didn't dare to steal good food inside the carriage. This hungry man's nose was sharper than a dog's, and he could smell any good food he ate. He was only glad that he didn't have to worry about the water source.

Ye Shun had a piece of bark in his mouth. The bark was bitter and astringent in his mouth. He chewed it until the juice was gone before spitting it out. Then he picked up a wild vegetable root and ate it in his stomach. He just chewed the bark and then chewed it out.

Eat wild vegetable roots, they are all sweet.

The coachman who was on his way had a grimace on his face, "If I had known that the road back to the capital would be so difficult, I wouldn't have left the capital with the convoy and made this trip."

Ye Shun ate a few wild vegetable roots and felt comfortable in his stomach. "As long as you get to the capital smoothly, you can make as much money as you usually do in two trips."

Only then did the driver start to smile. Fortunately, he belonged to the convoy. He could fill his stomach by eating with the convoy. He glanced at the long knife in the gap and said, "I didn't expect you to have good knife skills."

Ye Shun's tone was faint, "I am forced by life."

He had been practicing martial arts since he first came to the north. As he got older, he only knew how to cut people with a sword, which could be regarded as a way to save his life.

The coachman lowered his voice and said, "You should pay more attention at night. Many people are eyeing you and your daughter."

This journey has been very miserable. There is no grain in the fields that have just been plowed in spring. People in the north who are short of food rely on wild vegetables to satisfy their hunger. There are few wild vegetables nearby along the way, which shows how miserable the people's lives are.

Ye Shun glanced at the team behind the car with his peripheral vision, lowering his eyes to hide the emotions in his eyes. Those who can still protect their families and survive are ruthless people. You can't judge a person by his appearance. There are still some days before he can reach the capital. The bandits are indeed gone.

, the danger is in the team.

The caravans and escort agencies won't care. This world has seen too much life and death, and people are particularly indifferent.

In the evening, Yang Xi and his wife in Ruizhou had gone to bed early. Ruizhou can be rated as the safest city in the south. The post station was guarded by soldiers. Even if there were no guards following, there would be no danger.

The team that Ye Shun followed found a water source and stopped to rest after dark. Some people went to catch fish in the dark, but unfortunately they didn't catch anything.

The north is experiencing drought and locust plagues. Even though the weather was good last year, the fish in the river still haven't been able to recuperate. It's hard to find palm-sized fish, and many of them are small fry.

If you are lucky enough to encounter one or two big fish, that is also a lucky fish that has escaped all the layers of fishing.

Ye Shun took advantage of the darkness to share a piece of pancake with his daughter. They only dared to eat dry food to fill their stomachs when most people went out to look for food.

Ye Shun drank the water from the water bag, "Are you afraid that something will happen tonight?"

Geng Ningxi touched the dagger in her arms and said, "I'm not afraid."

Ye Shun lowered his voice, "If I'm not here anymore, just run to the rest area of ​​the escort agency. Someone will protect you."

Geng Ningxi's eyes widened, "I'm with dad, I can help."

Ye Shun was relieved that this girl was benevolent and said, "I'm talking about the worst-case scenario."

At night, most people drank enough water, and some people started to rest one after another, but Ye Shun pricked up his ears. He couldn't see how many people were surrounding him, but there must be a lot of them. Even though he had kept a low profile, he still attracted attention.

Ye Shun sighed and took out the bottle from his arms, swallowed the antidote first, and then sprinkled a circle of medicinal powder beside the carriage. The scent of the powder soon dissipated.

Geng Ningxi also took the antidote, holding the dagger nervously, and soon heard a wailing sound.

Ye Shun didn't need to light the torch, but lit the torch on the opposite side. He counted eight people, six of them were lying on the ground, and the remaining two were holding on to their necks to endure the pain.

Ye Shun lit the torch in his hand, and the sleeping people nearby woke up to the noise. The caravans and escort agencies in front didn't come over after hearing the noise, and they obviously didn't care.

Ye Shun stared at the eight people coldly, stood up and walked over to pick up the axes and knives that the eight people had thrown on the ground. He sneered, "I didn't want to see blood, but there are always people who regard our father and daughter as easy to bully."

The eight people had never encountered poison before and were already dumbfounded. Some of them kowtowed to admit their mistake and asked for the antidote.

Many people want to come forward, eight people

His family also wanted to come over, but they were afraid of poisons. Someone threatened Ye Shun, and Ye Shun laughed, "Do you know how many poisons I have? How could our father and daughter dare to go on the road alone without support? I am not scared."

As he spoke, he chopped off one person's hand with a knife, but no one reacted to the sudden change.

Ye Shun sighed inwardly. Emperor Jiang proclaimed himself emperor but did not clear out the northern states. As a result, the people of each state still acted according to the troubled times, completely forgetting that Emperor Jiang had proclaimed himself emperor and had to pay with his life for killing people. Unfortunately, Emperor Jiang's thoughts were all on Prince Wang Huo.

, currently cannot take care of the people!
