C14 Can You Run Away?

In the yard.

Mrs Xu arranged some random things at the side.

The sun had disappeared from the overcast sky, and a few drops of rain suddenly fell on Mrs Xu's body.

"It's raining, hurry up. Little Zhuangzi, take the carriage to the stable and take down the package on the carriage."

Mrs Xu put down the package in her hands and followed Little Zhuangzi to push the carriage into the stable.

The rain was getting heavier and heavier. They had thought that they were at a safe haven, but who knew that it would rain heavily outside. It was drizzling inside the house, and as they looked at the small hole in the roof, water droplets kept dripping down.

Qin Rulee was worried about his family, so he rushed back first.

He frowned when he saw the situation at home. How could he live in a place like this?

"Rulee, do you have anything else to change?"

Mrs Zhang looked at the leaking tiles and asked when she saw her son had returned.

The house had just warmed a little from the fire of vanity, but now it began to rain.

The leaking rain caused the inside of the house to get moist again. Jiang Wan had just come out, and the children were all inside. They couldn't get cold or wet, so they had to be careful not to catch cold.

Qin Rulee took off his robe, "Yes, you guys wait here. I'll go upstairs to take a look."

With that, he dove into the rain.

Seeing that, Little Zhuangzi put down the thing in his hand, "I will go help too."

Qin Rulee climbed onto the roof. They didn't have any tiles, so they could only find a lot of straw and threw themselves onto the roof. Qin Rulee climbed onto the roof and didn't have any tiles, so they could only find a lot of straw and threw themselves onto it.

Although the house of the County Magistrate looked dilapidated, it still had quite a few rooms, making it a three-way house.

The only difference was that the rich and powerful families living in the same alley were all better off than the county magistrate's.

Mrs Zhang looked at the dilapidated courtyard with a slight headache, but still patiently arranged the courtyard.

The first to enter the courtyard were the loyal servants who had accompanied them here. The second was the second to enter the main house and the third was the family of Mrs Zhang and Qin Si.

Each of them was divided into a few smaller courtyards. After they were assigned, the group of people waited quietly for the rain to stop.

It rained for no more than an hour.

An hour later, those people began to get busy again. Each of them cleaned up their own small courtyard and put up the furniture they brought from the capital. The empty rooms were finally a bit better.

The sky had gradually darkened, but Qin Si and Qin Rufeng had not come back yet.

Jiang Wan looked at the candle on the table in the dark. She tilted her head and looked at the child beside her. She kept humming a lullaby while her mind flew far away …

… ….

Qin Si and Qin Rufeng caught two people at the yamen, as well as a county magistrate.

The reason why he stayed here, was to wait for Qin Si to come and finish the task of transferring people. Who knew that Qin Si would beat him up the moment he arrived.

This place isn't Lord Stable's residence, the past glory has already passed, the County Magistrate just arrived here, it's best to restrain himself a little. These two people have followed me for many years, you just took over and beat them up, if the news reaches the emperor's ears, what will you do?

The previous magistrate looked at the two people left on the ground by Qin Rufeng, and he trembled in anger.

The fat of his face shook, and his belly swelled up like a baby's.

"Do you think you can run away if this really reaches the emperor's ears? The emperor's mountains are so vast, yet you actually let me come here. Do you really think you can escape the emperor's eyes and ears? "

Qin Si snickered when he heard the threat that the fatty posed to him.
