The village school could not stop. Yu Wan left a letter for Bai Tang and asked her to help find a temporary teacher and accountant.
On a sunny morning, the group left the village.
On a dark night, Ah Wei also drove the carriage out of the village. They want to leave him behind? Ha! Wouldn’t he go back himself?! He did not want to stay in this godforsaken place to be a teacher for three little good-for-nothings! He had had enough! Hmph!
The three little black eggs slipped onto the carriage and sat obediently on the stool. Ah Wei lifted the curtain and put away the dry rations. The three little black eggs were too tanned and blended into the night, so Ah Wei did not see them.
Ah Wei waved his whip and the carriage left. He was in a good mood. He was finally free from those little brats. Wahaha!
… .
In August, the Capital gradually turned cold after autumn, but Qinghe Town was still as hot as a summer day. Three carriages stopped in front of an inn that had been in disrepair for many years.
The owner of the carriage was none other than Yan Jiuchao and Yu Wan, who had traveled thousands of miles.
The group had already passed through Wan City and entered the territory of Southern Xinjiang two days ago. Because they did not have a travel pass to Southern Xinjiang, it was not convenient for them to take the official road, so they changed to a small path and delayed for a while.
Qinghe Town was a border town in Southern Xinjiang. It was barren and backward, and the authorities did not have strict control. It was most suitable for people without a travel pass to stay.
There were three carriages. Yu Wan and Yan Jiuchao were in the carriage driven by Jiang Hai. Zi Su and Fu Ling were in Qing Yan’s carriage. Yue Gou’s carriage was at the back, with the old man and Old Cui.
Princely Heir Yan did not lack money. Along the way, he stayed in the most luxurious shops. However, Qinghe Town was poor. This Yuelai Inn was already the best inn in town, but it was still dilapidated.
Yan Jiuchao and Yu Wan alighted from the carriage.
“I’ll go and ask if there’s a room.” Zi Su entered the inn and walked to the counter. She asked the shopkeeper, who was dozing off, “Is there a guest room? We wanted to rent one.”
The shopkeeper knocked onto the table like a chick pecking at rice and was instantly woken up by the pain. He rubbed his forehead and looked at Zi Su. “What?”
Zi Su repeated, “Is there a guest room?”
If there weren’t any rooms left, they would leave. After a day of traveling, the Princely Heir and the Princely Heir Consort were exhausted.
The shopkeeper glanced at Zi Su. Zi Su was dressed decently and her actions were extraordinary. She even wore a silver hairpin on her head.
The shopkeeper smiled and said, “How many rooms do you want?”
Zi Su said, “Four rooms, three upper rooms and one lower room.”
The shopkeeper waved his hand impatiently. “What upper room? There are only two rooms. It’s up to you whether you want to stay or not!”
Along the way, Zi Su was used to seeing all kinds of people. This kind of place that only did business once and did not have to worry about no customers coming to visit was the worst. She did not say anything and went out to report to Yu Wan. “Madam, there are only two rooms left. I don’t think they’re the best rooms.”
When they were outside, in order to hide their identities, Yan Jiuchao was a young master, Yu Wan was a madam, the old man was a butler, Old Cui was a servant, Qing Yan and Yue Gou were guards, and Zi Su and Fu Ling were still maidservants.
Yu Wan looked at the gradually dark sky and said, “So be it. So many inns were full when I asked just now. It’s most likely the same for the next one.”
“Okay, I’ll go reserve the rooms.” Zi Su took the silver and asked the shopkeeper for the remaining two rooms.
These two rooms were not side by side, there was a room between them. They would only stay for one night and set off tomorrow morning.
Yue Gou and Qing Yan helped the two maidservants carry their luggage, blankets, and pillows off the carriage. Even when Princely Heir Yan was outside, he had to use the cleanest things.
Yu Wan and Yan Jiuchao slept in one room. The two maidservants slept on the floor, and the remaining men squeezed into one room and slept on the floor.
The food in the inn was almost tasteless, and the ingredients were not fresh. Others could make do with it, but a prince born with a golden spoon could not. Of course, it was also because Yu Wan could not bear to let her husband suffer.
Yu Wan took his pulse and let him take the pill that was temporarily suppressing the poison. She said, “I’ll go buy some food. Don’t walk around.”
Yan Jiuchao glanced at her coldly. “Yu Ah Wan, pay attention to your tone. I’m not a child!”
Yu Wan smiled dotingly. “Yes, yes, yes. You’re not a child. You’re my husband.”
“Hmph!” Yan Jiuchao turned his face away proudly. Yu Wan pulled the thin blanket over him. The weather was hot, but he was a little afraid of the cold.
Yu Wan left the room. Coincidentally, at this moment, a monk in green and a bamboo hat walked over. The two of them bumped into each other.
Yu Wan went left, wanting to avoid him, but he also went left.
