Exiled to Lingnan, the Crown Prince's wife raises children, cultivates the land, and leads the

"They must have taken money from the Cui family and want the Marquis dead!"

Liu Suyi said angrily, "We could have gone into the city to rest, but we had to travel another five miles to rest in this desolate wilderness!"

This is to prevent them from buying medicine, and to delay the Marquis's death!

"My second brother's wound has started bleeding again."

Grandpa Jin looked at Marquis Zhongyong with concern. Since leaving the bandits, Marquis Zhongyong had fallen into a coma again.

"Uncle, put some medicine on the whip marks on your shoulder too."

Cheng Qiqi took a bottle of medicine and stepped forward.

"I'm fine, save the medicine for my second brother."

Grandpa Jin looked at Marquis Zhongyong with concern. Although the four brothers were cousins, the second brother was quick-witted. Even though he was exiled to Lingnan, with him around, there was a pillar of support for them!

What if the Marquis of Loyalty and Valor is gone?

Could they survive if they went to Lingnan?

"Uncle, good health is the most important thing."

After saying that, Cheng Qiqi turned and left. She planned to take a walk in the nearby mountains to see if she could find some food.

They drink porridge, sweet potatoes, and potatoes every day. The adults are okay, but An'an and Jin Yun are young and often have bloating and discomfort.

Cheng Qiqi had just said she was going to look for some wild vegetables nearby.

"Country folks still eat wild vegetables!"

Lin Huilan instinctively made a sarcastic remark.

The next moment, Lin Huilan received fierce looks from everyone.

"What's wrong with wild vegetables? They can fill your stomach and keep you from starving. They're better than you three who can't do anything."

The third branch of the Wen family directly retorted.

Fourth wife Li nodded in agreement, saying, "Only the Marquis is soft-hearted towards you. You've already been exiled, and you still expect to be waited on hand and foot?"

"Qiqi, we'll go with you."

Wen Shi looked at Cheng Qiqi with a very gentle gaze.

"it is good."

Soon, everyone discussed and decided that Madam He from the eldest branch of the family would bring Meng Jingyao, Gao Shenglan, Jin Qing, and Liu Suyi to cook porridge and pack their things here, while the others would go to find something to eat nearby!

"These people are really going too far. Where can we go with us in shackles?"

When Wen turned around, she saw that Jin Lizhi and several other strong young men had come to gather firewood. There were also several yamen runners with knives following behind them. The yamen runners held their swords, as if they would attack immediately if they made any move!

"Who says otherwise? We've been traveling for half a month already. When will we finally reach Lingnan?"

Li looked around worriedly: "It's autumn now, are there any wild vegetables in the mountains?"

"Third Aunt, Fourth Aunt, Xuan'er and I are going to the restroom."

Cheng Qiqi pulled Jin Xuan'er and pointed to the small hill behind them.

"Be careful, call us if anything happens."

Wen nodded and immediately turned to stare at the yamen runner with the knife.

"Sister-in-law, I'll keep watch here for you."

Jin Xuan'er gripped her clothes tightly, stood on high ground, and stared in the direction of the constables to make sure they wouldn't peek or anything like that!

Jin Xuan'er looked around furtively, clearly enjoying the thrill of the encounter.

Cheng Qiqi was almost amused by Jin Xuan'er's actions. Perhaps it was that night that made Jin Xuan'er so appreciative of her as her sister-in-law. Cheng Qiqi slowly squatted down and carefully searched for a place to put something.

"Hey, Xuan'er, look, aren't there lots of mushrooms here?"

Taking advantage of Jin Xuan'er's inattention, Cheng Qiqi took out the two pieces of mushroom wood and then faked the fact that they were originally there.

"mushroom?"

Jin Xuan'er turned around and saw Cheng Qiqi parting the vines to reveal large and small mushrooms on the mushroom tree.

"The chicken stew with shiitake mushrooms is so delicious!"

Jin Xuan'er swallowed hard, speaking subconsciously, then said shyly, "Sister-in-law, I, I..."

"Don't be shy, I also want to eat braised chicken with shiitake mushrooms."

Cheng Qiqi looked at her with a smile. Apart from the meat buns that Chun Tao gave them on the day of their exile, they hadn't eaten meat for more than half a month!

Cheng Qiqi said with a smile, "Quickly call someone to move it onto the carriage and find a way to hang it up. That way, we might be able to eat more mushrooms on the road."

"I'll go right away."

Jin Xuan'er turned and ran.

Cheng Qiqi immediately started picking shiitake mushrooms. At the same time, she also took out a lot of shiitake mushrooms from her space. The ground was covered with shiitake mushrooms, which could probably last for a long time!

"Wow, so many mushrooms!"

"Qiqi is so lucky. We searched for ages and found nothing."

While praising the mushrooms, Wen and Li lifted their prison uniforms and began to fill them with mushrooms, remarking with amazement, "There are so many mushrooms growing here."

Cheng Qiqi raised an eyebrow: She took meticulous care of them in the Marquis's courtyard, how could they not be good?

When the Jin brothers heard that mushroom wood had been found here, they were puzzled as to why it was cut into pieces. But since they had picked it up on the mountain, it was theirs!

So, the Jin brothers started carrying the two pieces of mushroom wood back home!

Cheng Qiqi followed Jin Xuan'er and continued walking nearby, finding quite a few wild vegetables: "Purslane, shepherd's purse, wild onions, everyone pick more."

Even without Cheng Qiqi saying anything, the Wen family, the Li family, and Jin Xuan'er were already busy picking wild vegetables to cook with a little rice. It was better than eating sweet potato porridge every day, right?

So the three of them practically wanted to tear the land bare.

Cheng Qiqi turned around and, seeing that they hadn't noticed her, immediately began her performance. Being a prostitute, she had to find a good way to get away with it.

Soon, Cheng Qiqi pulled two plump chickens out of the grass. The chickens flapped their wings, instantly making Wen Shi and the other two look up excitedly. When they saw the chickens in Cheng Qiqi's hands, they exclaimed excitedly, "There are chickens here!"

The Wen family members, who hadn't been able to eat meat for over half a month, couldn't help but swallow hard.

When Cheng Qiqi returned with two chickens, everyone's eyes immediately turned to them.

"Oh my, we found mushrooms and chicken today! Chicken stew with mushrooms is delicious, Qiqi, we're in for a treat today."

As soon as Madam He from the first wife spoke, Grandpa Jin's face immediately darkened: "This was found by Qiqi, what are you going to eat?"

"I……"

He was about to say "family" when she remembered that Cheng Qiqi had even dared to undress Lin Huilan before, so she immediately stopped talking and just kept staring at the chicken in Cheng Qiqi's hand, swallowing hard.

"Not only did Qiqi find the chicken, but she also found the mushrooms."

Wen spoke up, asking, "Qiqi, can I trade you some sweet potatoes for some mushrooms?"

Sweet potato porridge every day, and all day long, I fart a few extra times.

Li nodded in agreement, "That's right, Qiqi, we'll trade you some sweet potatoes for some mushrooms."

As for chicken...

They don't have that kind of nerve!

The chicken looks plump, but the Marquis of Zhongyong is ill, the old lady is in poor health and is drowsy every day, and Jin Suian is only three years old. They are old, young, and sick, and they all need to be nourished.

"Can I trade it for a chicken?"

Jin Qing swallowed hard while staring at Cheng Qiqi's chicken. In her mind, if mushrooms could be traded, why couldn't chickens be traded?
