Xiao Chengxian couldn't help but stretched out his hand to slap her on the head and glared at her.

"Haven't you heard? The Su family was exiled because they failed to donate disaster funds to the court in time. If floods have already occurred in the south before the rainy season, wouldn't it be even more terrifying when the rainy season comes?"

During the meal, Su Manrong chatted with Aunt Xin for a few words and talked about the reasons why the Su Mansion was exiled. Although most of the reasons were because the Su Mansion was stolen one after another, Su Qi suspected that the old emperor had killed the donkey.

However, flooding in the south is an indisputable fact. In addition, the weather forecast said that it will rain for three consecutive days in the next three days, and it will clear up only one day later, and then it will rain continuously again.

Su Manrong felt very uneasy, feeling that the trajectory of the Su family had been changed by her, and maybe the natural disaster would really come in advance.

"So?" Xiao Chengxian asked still puzzled: "Are you worried that we will also encounter floods?"

"Yes." Su Manrong nodded, as if meeting a close friend: "So we go ahead and wait for the exile team in Sichuan. If they encounter floods on the way, we don't need to report to the government, we can go wherever we want.

.

If they are lucky enough to arrive in Sichuan, we can still blend into the team."

Xiao Chengxian tugged on the prison clothes on his body, and a careless smile appeared on his handsome face: "If you can persuade the official, I will accompany you."

Although I don't know why Su Manrong had such a sudden idea, seeing the look of expectation in her eyes, the words she originally wanted to refute turned into words of endearment.

"Okay, then you go back and rest first, and I will make up a reason to talk to the official."

Su Manrong clasped her hands together and nodded to Xiao Chengxian with a grateful expression. Suddenly she felt that Xiao Chengxian was quite handsome when he wasn't ugly.

However, he looks a little different from the costumed male protagonists on TV. He is too lively and does not look like a rigid ancient person...

When Su Manrong racked her brains to come up with a perfect excuse to come to see the official, the two official officials she knew were drunk too much, and another official fell down, leaving only one sober official, but it was not Su Manrong's.

Two apprentices.

"Drinking while working is not professional at all. No wonder you can only be sent abroad after working for so many years."

Su Manrong's plan failed and she could only wait for an opportunity to talk to the official about this matter tomorrow.

But when faced with the incident of a drunken official, she, as a laborer, felt very dissatisfied.

People must control their emotions and self-discipline at all times, otherwise they will miss the opportunity when it comes.

Su Manrong, who has been involved in modern times for so many years, knows that every opportunity for promotion is hard-won.

When I woke up early the next morning, there was drizzle in the sky. The ground was not wet, and there was not the downpour that Su Manrong had imagined.

Such drizzle could not stop the march of exile. The official whipped his whip to organize the team and set off for the next station within the originally scheduled time.ωωw..net

Su Manrong followed behind the cart holding an oil-paper umbrella. She looked at the two children sitting in the carriage and made faces at them through the window, making them giggle.

However, because of the rain, the temperature was a bit low, and she sneezed several times in succession.

"Give me the umbrella, and you and the two children can squeeze into the cart." Xiao Chengxian grabbed the oil-paper umbrella and urged Su Manrong to squeeze in: "If the cart couldn't accommodate me, I would have sat in it long ago.

Already."

Su Manrong squeezed into the small cart obediently, and could only hold one of the children in her arms, otherwise there would be no space.

As the road surface became uneven, the cart swayed. Through the rainproof cloth fluttering in the wind, Xiao Chengxian's figure appeared far and near in front of her eyes.

She knew that Xiao Chengxian was unforgiving, but he never had any bad thoughts towards her.

"You peeked at me through the curtain dozens of times along the way." Xiao Chengxian cleared his throat, feeling so uncomfortable that he was afraid that Su Manrong would laugh if he didn't straighten his chest and raise his head when he walked.

"I'm facing the team and not looking at you. Do I want to look at the horse's butt?"

Su Manrong looked away guiltily and argued with him through the curtain.

But after watching it for so long, she felt that Zheng'er and Xiao Chengxian were not very similar.

Xiao Chengxian had a pair of peach blossom eyes, which should have followed those of Aunt Du.

Zheng'er has pink and phoenix eyes, while Yuan'er has almond eyes.

Is it possible that Zheng'er and Yuan'er's biological mother had one red phoenix eye and one almond eye?

At this time, in the team, Mrs. Xiao Guo suddenly slowed down and waited for Su Mansion's team to approach. Then she cleared her throat and whispered: "Su Qi, now we are all in exile. All the grudges in the past are...

, it was written off in one stroke. None of the three sons in your family were married, and there was no bloodline.

If you are willing, our two families will become more closely related, and my legitimate granddaughter will marry your legitimate son, so that we can continue the legacy of your Su family."

Last night, watching her beloved great-great-grandson being tortured like this, she felt deeply helpless. Even she was so hungry that she could barely hold on.

There is no male in the direct lineage of the Xiao Mansion, so it is impossible to rely on the Rong Mansion.

But there are three men in the Su Mansion, and they can also find prey. If they go down to sleep on the mountain, they will inevitably eat game to replenish their body.

Although she hated the Su family in her heart, she put aside her hatred at this critical juncture. When they arrived safely in Sichuan and met her Yao'er, she would no longer have to suffer.

"What does the old lady want to get from me when she considers my family so much?"

Su Qi was worried about the bloodline issue of the Su family along the way. As soon as the imperial edict of exile was issued, his eldest son's fiancée sent a letter of divorce.

Su Qi also understood the reason why his family was in decline and was despised by others. He was just worried that his son would never find a suitable wife in the desert land of Sichuan and Sichuan...

If Qian'er can be allowed to marry Xiao Jing, she is the legitimate daughter of the Xiao family, so it is indeed the best choice at the moment.

"Su Rou will marry me, Sun Yian."

A hint of calculation flashed across Xiao Guo's old face. In fact, she didn't care whether the two grandsons of the Rong Mansion could continue the bloodline. After all, they were not her biological grandsons. But if she was not prepared to exchange conditions, it would only make Su Qi

Think she is begging her.

So she would put forward conditions that Su Qi was unwilling to agree to, and then settle for the next best thing.

This move can not only win over the hearts of the Su family, but also allow the Rong family to continue serving her as their aunt.

In this way, it will indeed save a lot of effort on the way to exile.

For the sake of Xiao's direct lineage, she had to make such arrangements so that nothing could happen to Zhiyuan's body...

"Rourer is the apple of my eye, how can I marry the son of a merchant? Even if Xiao Yian is the legitimate son of the Rong Mansion, they are still concubines in the Xiao Mansion. My daughter Su Ya can consider marrying Xiao Yian."

A gleam flashed in Su Qi's eyes. Instead of letting his daughter marry a lowly local slave in Sichuan and Sichuan, marrying into the Xiao Mansion was a good way out.

But Su Rou's marriage cannot be touched. He wants Su Rou to be a bargaining chip for him to dismiss the game.

"In this case, we will ask the children individually. Although marriage is a major matter and the parents order the matchmaker, if the children are unwilling, we as elders should not interfere too much."
