After the house was confiscated, I relied on billions of dollars in supplies to become a group favor

Chapter 205 Leave
The Mu family had no idea that rumors had spread in the village. They had been building houses on the homestead and were busy going in and out. Occasionally, they would go up the mountain to collect some fungi and hunt some game. That’s all, I didn’t go to the village at all.

Finally, most of the house was built, and it would be completed in a few days. However, Li Jiang quietly called Mu Yunxiao and his wife aside.

Li Jiang sighed slightly, a slight smile appeared on his usually serious face, but his cold eyes were full of sincerity, and his tone was a little solemn, and he said: "General Mu, Miss Mu, there is nothing we can do next. I will continue to help you build a house. The superiors issued an ironclad order last night. We must set off today and rush back to the capital as quickly as possible to resume our mission."

"So anxious? I haven't heard you say that before." Ruan He raised her eyebrows in surprise. The news came suddenly. From Wang Xiaoer's tone of voice, she thought that this group of official servants could stay in Yuecheng for a while. It's been a long time, I didn't expect to have to leave today.

There was a trace of doubt between Mu Yunxiao's brows, and he said calmly: "According to the law, there is no need for escort officers to return to Beijing in such a hurry. Mr. Li, what happened?"

Li Jiang also shook his head helplessly and said in a deep voice: "I don't know about this either. We have an ironclad order from above and we have to obey. We must set out before dark today without making any mistakes."

As Mu Yunxiao said, the escort officer has the right to go home to visit relatives after a long period of exile. There has never been a situation where he returned to the capital so early.

He didn't know what the intentions of the superiors were. According to the usual situation, after the escort officers escorted the exiled prisoners to the exile, they could have almost a month of free time. Returning to the capital was not an urgent matter at all. After all, when they arrived Locally, the Yuecheng officials have also sent a letter to the capital to inform them of the news. Their return to the capital is just a formality.

Especially... this time, the order from above was particularly urgent and sudden. It came over without any warning. They were just ordinary official errands. Naturally, they had to obey the order from above. They had to set off immediately before dark today. can arrive in Beijing as soon as possible.

Wang Xiaoer and Lao Jiu were also following Li Jiang. After hearing their conversation, Wang Xiaoer also looked indignant and complained dissatisfiedly: "I don't know what the superiors are... why are they so anxious... I have been sending people here since yesterday, and they come here every now and then to urge us. I wish we could fly back to the capital right away! His grandma’s... Our boss has not prepared anything. He just asked me to go to the city and buy a large amount of rough noodles. The steamed buns are coming, and we are eating them on the road... I nibbled a steamed bun along the way, and my teeth were about to break. They eat and drink well in the capital, and they can tell us to go back quickly with just a few words..."

Hearing that Wang Xiaoer was becoming more and more outspoken and almost insulting the high-ranking officials in the capital, Lao Jiu quickly pushed him and gave a cold warning: "Be careful what you say and do."

The higher-ups may not have eyes and ears, but Wang Xiaoer's words became more and more rude. After drinking a few sips of wine with his brothers, he began to insult the high-ranking officials in the capital for being unworthy of human beings, slandering the common people, and slandering people like General Mu. All kinds of treacherous words about loyal ministers and the like come out of their mouths.

Li Jiang and Lao Jiu were increasingly unable to stop Wang Xiaoer from speaking. They were also afraid that if he opened his mouth, they would be killed, so they could only keep an eye on him.

"When you get to the capital, you don't need to speak with that mouth." Li Jiang was naturally worried about his subordinate, and after a pause, he also followed Lao Jiu's words and warned him.

"Okay, okay, I won't talk anymore." Wang Xiaoer didn't notice the inappropriateness at all, and agreed happily.

On this side, with Wang Xiaoer's interruption, the atmosphere between them became much more relaxed.

So far, Li Jiang has only come to inform them, which is equivalent to simply saying goodbye.

Ruan He naturally knew that these officials had come here to help build the house every day in the past few days, and they could almost be said to have made great contributions. Now that they were separated, she could not do nothing, so she had to thank them properly.After thinking about it like this, she already had her own thoughts in her mind. She raised her clear eyes, looked at Li Jiang, and asked seriously: "Master Li, when are you leaving?"

Li Jiang thought for a moment, and after thinking over all the preparations before departure, he replied: "We must leave before dark. I should... wait until I gather all the officials, and then I can leave directly."

Since the order was given by the superiors last night, he could not continue to rest. He stayed up all night and made a list of the items that needed to be prepared and the things that needed to be done before leaving, so as not to delay anything.

Li Jiang has always been a prudent person. As the leader of the escort, he is usually in charge of prisoners, and the journey of exile is long and arduous. If he is not careful enough, things can easily go wrong.

After hearing this, Ruan He hurriedly said something and turned to the small kitchen, "Mr. Li, you will leave later. I will prepare some food for you and I will grill some meat."

Li Jiang planned to decline Ruan He's kindness, but when he saw her turning around and walking away, he reluctantly took back his words.

"I'm going to help." Mu Yunxiao nodded calmly, gestured to Li Jiang, and then turned to follow him.

Ruan He went to the stove first, lit the fire on the stove, then walked to the courtyard and picked up the wild boar legs that had been drying in the yard for a day.

The excess hair on the wild boar legs has been shaved off, and it has been sunny these two days. After being exposed to the sun, the fresh pork has a golden color, which is perfect for making pork jerky.

In the room, Mrs. Mutai and others also heard the news that the official servants were leaving. When they were about to come out to say goodbye, they met Ruan He who was returning with a wild boar leg.

"Grandma, Aunt Zong, Master Li, they are going back to the capital. I plan to bake some meat for them to eat on the way. Time is tight. They will leave in the afternoon. I need your help."

"Madam, I'm here to help, too." Before he finished speaking, Mu Yunxiao walked in from outside, looked at Ruan He and said.

"Okay, then take it." Ruan He glanced at him and threw the wild boar leg into his hand without any scruples.

These officials were helping the Mu family build a house and had nothing to do with her. It was natural for Mu Yunxiao to come to help, and it was also natural for Ruan He to send him.

Mrs. Mutai and others saw their behavior and thought it was a familiar joke between the couple. Naturally, they didn't know what Ruan He was thinking.
