Chapter 113
"But Mu Qinghong is a fugitive...not just her, but Mu Qingshuang and Zhang too." Lao Jiu also retorted with a stern expression and furrowed brows.

"When we get to Tongzhou, I will capture them." Li Jiang said thoughtfully and with a determined expression.

Since it was the boss's decision, the other officials felt a little aggrieved and could only remain silent.

Mu Zhengbai squatted aside and watched the whole process, watching the carriage drive away. He was even more angry than the official, and he stamped his feet in anger!

Naturally, he did not dare to pour out his grievances on the officials. He turned his head, glared at his family behind him, and shouted angrily: "Why don't you say a few words to help! Maybe Hong'er will be willing to come down and confess." I’m the father!”

Mu Zhengbai was too angry to vent his anger, but Ruan He and the others just ignored him, as if he didn't exist.

After punching the cotton, Mu Zhengbai became even more angry and angrily wanted to go over and teach a few juniors a lesson.

As soon as he opened his legs, Wang Xiaoer glanced over at him with a cold gaze. Mu Zhengbai was so frightened that he immediately stood still. He could only curse and didn't dare to pass by casually.

Mu Zhengbai's face was livid, he cursed angrily and kept mumbling.

The Pei family members who were walking not far away looked over from time to time. They had never dealt with Mu Zhengbai. Now seeing his appearance, they couldn't help but laugh out loud and said sarcastically: "If your son doesn't listen to you, so will your daughter." If I don’t listen to you, I might as well die!"

Mu Zhengbai clenched his fist and waved at them threateningly, but received a disdainful sneer.

Since these days, Mu Zhengbai has not been taken seriously, and he has been regarded as a clown who just wants to have fun along the way.

After traveling with great intensity, it was not until nightfall that Li Jiang ordered everyone to rest for the night.

After all, walking at night is not easy, and accidents are easy to happen when walking in the dark. What's more, there is a group of men in black who are always eyeing them in the dark, so they must be on guard.

Whether they were officials or prisoners, they all took a long breath and wiped the sweat that had accumulated on their foreheads.

After such a high-intensity journey, everyone looked exhausted and couldn't muster any strength.

Especially after having rested for more than half a month, Ruan He suddenly walked on such a long journey. As soon as Chad stopped, Ruan He's legs became sore.

She couldn't stand still, so she stretched out a hand from the side and gave Ruan He a gentle support, allowing Ruan He to stand still.

Ruan He and Mu Yunxiao looked at each other, raised their lips slightly, and sat down on the stone beside them.

After they sat down, the official began to distribute the steamed buns. As usual, a dozen of them ate the white-flour buns, while the other prisoners squatted on the ground and gnawed on the hard, rough-flour buns.

When Ruan He finished the white-flour steamed buns in his hand, Wang Xiaoer greeted the couple beside him.

Ruan He naturally stood up and walked over quickly.

Wang Xiaoer looked at Ruan He happily and explained: "Sister-in-law, I told the boss about your very useful potion last time! It's the potion that wakes you up immediately after one sip."

Li Jiang also looked over and asked politely: "Mr. Mu, can you cook more of that potion for everyone to drink, speed up our process, and get to Tongzhou as soon as possible."

They were in a hurry when they arrived in Tongzhou, with long nights and many dreams. They still had not found half of the prisoners.

Potion... It should refer to the bottle of refreshing potion... Ruan He's expression paused for a moment, hesitated for a moment, and then he showed a troubled expression, shook his head slightly, and said: "I'm afraid I don't have enough in my hand. It’s medicine.”

The potion she prepared in advance was only enough for their family to drink. If it were supplied to so many prisoners, each of them would only take half a sip at most, which would be of no use at all.

The other prisoners had little friendship with her, and Ruan He was not so kind as to sacrifice his own family's interests to help others.

"Medicinal materials..." Li Jiang paused for a moment, but shook his head. They came out this time with only a little gold sore medicine and gauze, but not any medicinal materials.

It's hard for a clever woman to cook without rice. Without medicinal materials, he couldn't ask Ruan He to make those potions.

In this wilderness, even if the officials have money in their hands, they can't find a place to buy medicinal materials.

After hearing this, Li Jiang originally planned to let the couple go back to rest, but then he heard Ruan He say something after thinking about it.

"I have some other medicinal materials on hand. I can make a body-building soup for everyone to replenish their bodies. It's winter these days, and the body-building soup can also warm up the body."

After Ruan He thought about it, he remembered that there were a few pieces of ginger in his space. An aunt enthusiastically pushed them over when he was buying them at the market last time, and they came in handy.

This could be regarded as another favor she sold to Li Jiang.

When Li Jiang heard this, his face immediately showed a little joy and asked: "What do you need to prepare? The team's cauldron is at your disposal."

"As long as you have a pot and a fire, this place is right next to the river, so there is no shortage of water. I also brought some medicinal herbs to warm my body."

Li Jiang nodded repeatedly, thanked him sincerely, and said, "Okay, thank you for the hard work."

Just do it. As soon as Li Jiang gave the order, Wang Xiaoer led two officials to carry the big pot to the river.

When others were not paying attention, Ruan He had quietly taken out a few big gingers from the space, pretending to take them out of the baggage. Since he couldn't slice them, he threw them directly into the cauldron.

The officers had to go back and keep an eye on the prisoners to prevent them from escaping in the dark, so Wang Xiaoer only said hello: "Sister-in-law, if you need any help, just call us!"

Ruan He responded, picked up the kettle with both hands and feet, squatted on the ground, and pretended to use the kettle to scoop river water. In fact, he had secretly put the spiritual spring water in the space into the kettle.

She poured a large pot of spiritual spring water into the pot and repeated this process several times before filling the entire pot with water.

Looking at it like this, it looks like a big pot of water with a few mouthfuls of ginger floating on top, which looks too monotonous.

Ruan He thought about it for a moment, then took out a few decent, body-tonifying common medicinal materials from the space and threw them in. It was like a big pot of tonic soup.

After taking care of this, she called the officials over and asked them to help light a fire and cook it slowly.

When the fire started, Ruan He stared at the tonic soup in the pot for a while, then sat down on a big stone to rest.

She had to keep an eye on this tonic soup, otherwise she would overdo it and directly destroy so much spiritual spring water.
