"I'm really sorry, but I really don't dare to be so one-sided." Liu Yu'ang did not hesitate at all, and sincerely apologized.

"Does Milord still think that I'm really selling perverted food like they said?"

This time, Liu Yu'ang did not hesitate and immediately waved his hand, saying, "If that's not the case, then I hope that Madam Su will forgive this difficult situation."

Su Zhi laughed gently: "Master, your words are too harsh, this humble woman does not deserve them."

Compared to the overbearing villagers, Liu Yu'ang's attitude was much better. Moreover, the other party was His Majesty's personal disaster relief supervisor, an ordinary official wouldn't dare to receive such a huge gift even if Su Zhi didn't have the concept of a rank.

The afternoon sky darkened, and a large cloud of lead enveloped the land. The sultry air pressure was extremely low, and the cicadas' chirping noise was unsettling.

Liu Yu'ang looked at the sky, and seemingly muttered to himself: "It's going to rain again."

After the drought had lasted for such a long time, the rain from yesterday had finally ended this natural disaster. After this disaster was stabilized, he still had to return to the capital as soon as possible and could not stay here for too long.

After withdrawing his gaze, his gaze shifted to the girl at the side. He was still unyielding and unyielding, just like an unpainted white pill. He naturally had his share of grace and elegance.

He had only seen it twice, but both times he had opened the conversation in the midst of an argument.

It was unknown what kind of fortuitous encounters such a strong woman would have in the future.

"Madam Su, the disaster has finally stabilized. From today onwards, I will return to the capital to report this."

Su Zhi's gaze became sluggish, and her frown deepened.

"Lord ?" This humble woman has a presumptuous request. "

"Speak."

Su Zhi clenched her fists tightly, his expression tensed up. After a while, she mustered her courage and said word by word: "Master, can I borrow a bit of silver from this humble woman?"

She looked at Liu Yu'ang for help, her cheeks turning red from embarrassment.

Borrowing money from a man he had only met twice, and he was also a powerful official.

After Su Zhi finished making her request, she couldn't help but want to bite off her tongue, just how big of a face did the other party have to lend him the money?

"If ?" It doesn't matter if it's inconvenient, I, I, it's just... Wanted to take the children to their father. "

She lowered her head helplessly, and a green and red mark appeared on her small hand that had been squeezed into a ball due to her nervousness.

"How much do you need?"

Huh? Su Zhi raised her head in disbelief and looked at him in a daze.

Was this person really willing to lend her some silver?

Liu Yu'ang didn't care about her surprise, he gave a meaningful glance to the Grand Master, then passed the money pouch to her and said, "Here, there's twenty gold inside, I should be able to reach the border without any worries."

Su Zhi was startled, her hands slowly received the heavy purse, and felt her palms become frighteningly hot.

She did not have much confidence in being able to borrow money, but her family was really stretched to the point of being unable to find even half a copper coin. Unexpectedly, Liu Yu'ang was really willing to help.

"Big ? Everyone ? A woman ?" She stared at the purse in her hands, and was so excited that she spoke incoherently, she composed herself and said: "Today Master is willing to be generous, in the future, I, Su Zhi, will repay you tenfold."

Liu Yu'ang laughed and shook his head. He originally wanted to take pity on Su Zhi, but he never thought that she would be able to pay him back.

On the other hand, the vast sea of people was a thousand miles away from the border. He would return to the capital in a few days, and the two of them would never meet again.

"I also have an older sister who is a distant husband. Her family met with an accident and relied on the help of others to return to her family. "This twenty silver taels is nothing, it's just a small amount of energy. Since the journey is short, Madam Su needs to be careful."

"Thank you, my lord, for your reminder. This humble woman will be extremely grateful."

Su Zhi carefully put the silver back into her pocket and watched Liu Yu'ang leave with his eyes.

With this entanglement, she would be able to bring Ah Jin and Little Pancake to the border trial to find a husband. No matter what kind of crisis there would be in the future, she would still be able to live a better life in the Tranquil Village.

When the sun was about to set, Ah Jin, who was guarding the broken door and waiting for his mother to return finally saw Su Zhi, who had returned alone at the other end of the road.

"Mother!" Ah Jin shouted, mixed with worry and joy.

Little Pancake cried out, "Mother ~" before following her brother to bring Su Zhi home.

Looking at the two cute little lumps, Su Zhi's heart almost melted.

Squatting on the left and right, he held the two of them tightly.

Under the setting sun, the three shadows intertwined together and happily returned to the dilapidated wooden door.

Not long after he entered, heavy rain began to fall, splashing on the thatched cottage.

The house was leaking, so Ah Jin wisely found a few pots and placed them on the ground to prevent them from getting wet from the rain.

Su Zhi cooked with the fire and her mood was not affected by the heavy rain in the slightest.

There would be a rainbow after the storm, she believed!
