Chapter 132 Shake off the tail
Although Chen Yi will be severely punished when Yuan Xichen wakes up, Chen Yi doesn't care about it. He feels very guilty because his recklessness has caused others to suffer unexpected disasters.
More importantly, Yu Qingqing's family was the one that the prince favored. At least he had never seen his prince be so polite to any woman before.
"Everyone, set off now! Just slow down a little!" Chen Yi sat in the front of the carriage and shouted loudly towards the back after he was ready.
The people behind heard it and also tightened their reins, trying to control the speed of the carriage as much as possible.
When they set off in a mighty procession, there was another scene of dust flying all over the sky.
3:15 pm, near Hukou Town.
Yu Qingqing's family worked as quickly as possible, and with everyone supporting each other, they finally got rid of the people behind them.
They happened to be walking behind the teams from other villages. There were more people here, so even if they were caught up, they would not be easily discovered by those people.
“Dad, Mom, let’s take a break first. We should have gotten rid of those people. Don’t worry too much.
We will slowly follow behind the people in front of us. We should not be discovered, as we are very close to the town.
If that doesn't work, we'll try to get into more crowded areas of town."
Yu Qingqing was so tired that she didn't even want to talk, and her legs felt weak.
But he was still panting and told Yu Qingshu and the others to take a break. They should have gotten rid of those people now, so it was not so dangerous, so there was no need to rush.
Yu Qingshu supported Hua Qinglu and slowly walked in front of Yu Qingqing. He had been running so fast just now that even he couldn't stand it, let alone his wife and children.
His frown relaxed slightly, and he tried to force out a smile that he thought was okay. He looked at Yu Qingqing's palm-sized face and said:
"Qing'er, is everything really alright? Did we really get rid of them? It was a close call just now. If we were stopped by them, the consequences would be disastrous.
Fortunately, you said to find a crowded place to run. Now there are so many people around us, I believe they will not be able to find us for a while.
We can just follow behind other villages and avoid a lot of danger."
Yu Qingshu said this with lingering fear, wondering if he was caught for what he had just said.
They didn't know what to do, but luckily they had successfully gotten rid of those people. They could just follow others and avoid a lot of danger.
Yu Qinghai was also exhausted and panting, after he caught his breath a little.
He took out the water bag and drank a sip of water, then handed it directly to Yu Qingmei and Hua Yuanyuan next to him.
"Dad, Mom, I think what Third Sister said is right. Look at the village in front of us. It's not far from us, and they have so many people.
If those people really catch up with us, we can go to where there are more people, there will be no problem. Now, let's take a rest, we just ran too fast.
Yu Qinghai took a sip of water and felt that his throat, which had been smoking just now, felt much better.
He really had a stomachache from running just now. This might be the fastest he has ever run in his life.
Yu Qingqing and the others are not on the official road now. After they pass this road, they can go around "Hukou Town" and then get on the official road.
The road here is more difficult to walk on than the previous ones. There are many hills ahead and the road is quite rugged.
"Brother, don't worry, Mom and Dad! It'll be fine. The mountain roads here are quite rugged.
There are also many hillsides and trees next to them, so if things really go wrong we can hide inside them.
Now we are following behind other villages, as long as we are not too close and are not discovered by them, there will be no problem.
If we walk behind other villages, others will think we are from this village and will not try to attack us.
After all, it would be too conspicuous to drive our family away alone, so we were targeted.
And we had nothing, nothing but a few broken clay pots.
When others see that there is no food, they will stop staring at us. When others go to find something to eat, we will follow them to find something to eat.
Then we can find a corner and solve our eating problem.”
Yu Qingqing blinked her big eyes, then looked around and carefully observed the situation nearby.
I found that the trees here looked greener than the trees over there, and even the grass was not so dead.
Some of the grass is still green, which means the environment here is much better than before.
"Okay, I'll listen to you today. Dad will remember this. Then later, when others go to look for food, we will follow them and look for food.
Then when it gets darker, we can prepare food, and this way we won’t be targeted.
Then let’s walk slowly and follow the others. Don’t leave too far behind, or we won’t be able to catch up.”
Yu Qingshu took a deep breath. He had been running too fast just now and his throat was sore. Now, after drinking some water, it was almost healed.
His legs were still a little sore and weak, but there was no problem in continuing to walk. He continued to hold Hua Qinglu and began to walk forward.
Hua Yuanyuan and Yu Qingmei didn't say anything else after hearing this. They just took a short break and now they have recovered, so they supported each other and walked forward.
After walking for about a quarter of an hour, Yu Qingqing finally saw the town entrance with the three big characters "Hukou Town" on it.
There are fewer people entering and leaving the town now, and there are only two soldiers guarding the town gate.
"Dad, look, that's the gate to Hukou Town. We've already arrived at Hukou Town. Do you think we should go into the town or take a detour?"
Yu Qingqing still held on to a glimmer of hope in her heart, and if there was a chance, she still wanted to go to the town and take a look.
After all, there must be a lot of things in the town, and you might find what you want right away.
But they were in a hurry and time was precious, so they felt particularly conflicted.
"Qing'er, why don't we just not go to town? We are out of danger now. The main reason is that we have wasted a lot of time, so we should hurry on.
We can go there when we come across the next town later, how about that? "
Yu Qingshu scratched his head. Since his daughter asked like this, she must want to go.
But he still thought about it carefully for a long time. After all, hurrying on the road was important, so he said this.
