"Pooh!"

A rotten egg was thrown at Liu Suyi, hitting her face, and sticky egg yolk dripped down her forehead.

The stench of decay was nauseating, and the faces of those cursing and swearing left Liu Suyi numb as she listened to their angry words.

The Jin family members lowered their heads, wishing they could find a hole to crawl into.

Cheng Qiqi lifted her clothes to cover An'an completely, the curses all the way to her ears, the smell of rotten eggs was disgusting, she had never been so embarrassed in her life.

Upon reaching the South Gate, the Jin family members, covered in filth, were driven off.

After what just happened, everyone lost the will to speak and could only look hopefully towards the city gate. No one in the Jin family dared to get involved with them now, and the main branch, the third branch, and the fourth branch had no one to associate with them. Their only hope was Liu Suyi's family.

If the Liu family can't send anything over, won't they be doomed on their way to exile?

"Liu Suyi, is it really possible that your family will send someone?"

Lin Huilan said sarcastically, "Could it be that even your own parents don't want you anymore?"

Even though she was about to be exiled, why was Liu Suyi still being fawned over by a few people from the collateral branches?

"What does this have to do with you?" Liu Suyi lifted her eyelids. She knew in her heart that her father was angry that she chose the neutral Marquis Zhongyong and was unwilling to marry into the royal family to bring glory to the Liu family.

My mother was gentle and submissive to my father in everything.

The two older brothers are even more selfish and self-serving. When the Marquis's mansion was in power, they tried to curry favor with him, but now that the Marquis's mansion has fallen, they are even more afraid of being implicated.

The Liu family won't be coming.

"They're here!"

He said excitedly, "Sister-in-law, I knew the Liu family would never abandon their daughter like you."

"Second sister-in-law, if you have any food or money, please don't forget us. We are all family."

Wen was also excited. If he could ride in a carriage during his exile, and have food and money, he could make it all the way to Lingnan.

Once they arrive in Lingnan, they can simply go back to farming.

"..."

Liu Suyi raised her eyes, her gaze flickering, her hands gripping her clothes tightly: "No."

He, Wen, and Li did not believe it; they thought it must be someone from the Liu family.

Cheng Qiqi held Jin Sui'an in her arms. When she saw the head peeking out from the carriage, a smile appeared on her lips. All the good she had done for Chun Tao over the past three years hadn't been for nothing.

When Chun Tao saw Cheng Qiqi covered in filth, she was so excited that she jumped down from the carriage before it had even come to a complete stop, exclaiming, "Princess Consort!"

As soon as she opened her mouth, Chun Tao choked up.

"It's not a member of the Liu family."

"A maid."

"How are we going to survive this journey?"

The members of the collateral branch of the Jin family felt their hearts sink when they saw this scene. What good things could a maid possibly give?

"Chuntao, I am a sinner now, there is no need for you to bow."

Cheng Qiqi helped Chun Tao up.

"In Chun Tao's heart, the Crown Princess will always be the Crown Princess."

Chun Tao wiped away her tears, turned around and pulled the carriage over, saying, "I only managed to buy two carriages and one cart. I bought ten quilts, but I don't know if that's enough. I also have clothes, shoes, socks, and medicine."

As Chuntao was talking, she suddenly remembered, "I also bought steamed buns. Are you hungry?"

Chun Tao looked at the large bag of steamed buns and immediately handed them over, saying, "I just bought them, they're still warm."

"it is good."

Looking at the various items, Cheng Qiqi was surprised to find that Chun Tao was quite honest; she had probably already spent most of the silver notes Chun Tao had given her.

food?

The Jin family's eyes lit up.

"Mother."

Cheng Qiqi took the steamed buns and presented them to Liu Suyi, saying, "Mother, please eat."

Looking at the familiar steamed bun, Liu Suyi's eyes welled up with tears: "Good, good child."

"The officials over there..." Liu Suyi looked at the officials escorting the prisoners.

Chun Tao took the roast duck and went over, secretly slipping some silver into her hand. She bowed to the escorting officials and said, "I'm sorry to have delayed you for a while, sir."

The scarred man leading the group glanced at the scene and thought that they wouldn't get anything out of this trip.

"Depart precisely at 3:45 AM."

The scarred man weighed the silver in his hand. This maid was indeed loyal.

"Yes, yes, yes."

Chun Tao was overjoyed and quickly brought out the clothes to help Jin Sui'an change.

"Hey, hurry up and bring me some steamed buns! Do you want me to starve to death?"

Jin Xue'er hadn't eaten much in prison, and now, smelling the aroma of meat buns and roast duck, she was even more tempted!

Jin Xue'er acted imperiously, as if she were still the high and mighty daughter of a marquis!

"Jin Xue'er, didn't you say that I, a country bumpkin, am not presentable and only eat meat buns?" Cheng Qiqi spoke up, Jin Xue'er should have the attitude of asking for help!

"you……"

Just as Jin Xue'er was about to lose her temper, Lin Huilan pulled her daughter behind her and said with a smile, "Xue'er is young and doesn't understand. Qiqi, you're her sister-in-law, you certainly won't hold it against Xue'er, right?"

"Mother," Jin Xue'er said, dissatisfied.

Lin Huilan glared at her, then looked at Cheng Qiqi with a smile: "Our Marquis's mansion is in trouble, so we should be united and overcome this difficulty together."

Even if her parents were in the capital, if something happened to the Marquis's mansion, her family would quickly distance themselves from her!

Cheng Qiqi's maidservant didn't know where she got the money to acquire so many things, but when it's time to bow one's head, one must.

"Qiqi, I'll have Xue'er apologize to you for what happened before." Lin Huilan pulled Jin Xue'er out, pinched her hard, and whispered, "Do you want to starve to death on the road?"

Jin Xue'er fell silent instantly: "I'm sorry." Her voice was barely audible, as if her soul had been ripped away.

"Aunt Lin is right, we're all family."

Cheng Qiqi didn't say anything more, only asking Chuntao to distribute food and clothes to everyone.

Just now in the prison van, everyone's clothes were smelly and dirty.

Having received the steamed buns, the Jin family members completely forgot their previous complaints about Cheng Qiqi. Now, they quietly changed their clothes and wolfed down the steamed buns!

For several days in the cell, they were fed pig feed, which was really unpalatable.

"An'an, eat quickly, Mom will change your clothes."

Cheng Qiqi took off her daughter's outer garment and put on clean clothes. She also took off her outer garment and put on clean clothes. With a bite of steamed bun and a sip of water, she finally filled her stomach.

"I've sewn silver notes into her clothes, her belt, and the soles of her shoes. I've also stuffed loose silver coins into her jacket," Chun Tao whispered, almost in Cheng Qiqi's ear, as she changed her clothes.

"Thank you for your hard work, Chun Tao."

Cheng Qiqi felt grateful.

"The Crown Princess."

Chuntao shook her head, choking back tears, her tears falling like pearls from a broken string.

Cheng Qiqi hugged her and said, "We've been mistress and servant for a time. From now on, you should find a good family, get married, be a good wife and mother, and live a good life."

Cheng Qiqi patted Chun Tao's waist, as if to comfort her, or as if to say goodbye.

After serving the old lady her medicine and changing her clothes, Liu Suyi glanced at the Marquis. With Lin Huilan fawning over him, she didn't need to pay attention to her. Her gaze fell on Cheng Qiqi and Chuntao, who were embracing each other not far away.
