Chapter 123 Sending Wu Qianqian back to Linzhou City in disguise

Qiao Dong also stood up immediately and said, "I'm going with my second uncle. I can at least help you stop the bad guys."

Although Qiao Ran felt warm in her heart, she still refused: "No, you have to stay and protect everyone. If there is an emergency, I won't worry if only the third and fourth uncles are here."

"But we are even more worried if you go alone."

Chen Huiniang said worriedly.

At this time, Mr. Mo, who had been standing silently outside the Qiao family circle, raised his hand to express his presence:

"I happen to be going back to Linzhou City. I'll go with them. You should feel more at ease, right?"

Everyone looked at Mr. Mo.

Today he has changed back into his fancy clothes, put on a mask, and has a sword at his waist.

This aura is something that no one dares to underestimate. At first glance, he looks like a martial arts master with good skills.

Thinking of how Ran Ran picked up Mr. Mo who was so seriously injured, and how quickly the man recovered from his injuries. Although it was related to Ran Ran's miraculous medical skills, this perseverance should not be underestimated.

In the past few days, Mr. Mo would be there to teach the villagers how to practice swords and arrows. Everyone benefited a lot, which shows that he must have a good foundation in martial arts.

In this case, it is naturally much more effective than Qiao Erhe and Qiao Dong, two farmers who do not understand martial arts.

Seeing that she couldn't stop her eldest granddaughter, Mrs. Qiao had no choice but to nod in agreement: "Then you must go back quickly, don't let us worry."

"I know, grandma! I sent Sister Wu back to Linzhou Fucheng, and I will chase you soon. If I don't see you along the way, I will hurry up and go to the small town at the junction of Yunzhou and Xuanzhou County Waiting for you."

"Okay, if you don't catch up, let the old village chief and others go first. Our whole family will wait for you in that small town."

Qiao Ran felt warm in her heart. Grandma would rather leave the group than stay and wait for her!

After everyone dispersed, Mrs. Qiao called Qiao Ran in front of her again, quietly took out a few banknotes from her arms and stuffed them into her hand:

"Keep these banknotes! If you can't catch up with us, just buy a horse and ride on it faster. Don't worry about the money. Compared with your safety, no amount of money can compare to the fact that you have to have all your tail." Come back."

Qiao Ran pursed her lips and smiled happily.

She pushed the banknote back: "Grandma, I still have half of the banknote here! Besides, Sister Wu said that she would give me the banknote in return when she returns to Linzhou City. I don't have to worry about not having any money to spend. These You keep the banknotes, I will change them for some money after I enter the city, and we will buy some food when we get to the next town."

Mrs. Qiao felt really sorry for this sensible eldest granddaughter. She secretly decided to use these banknotes if she could, and keep them as a dowry for her eldest granddaughter in the future. She had already given enough to this family.

There are still so many descendants of the Qiao family. From now on, we should try our best to let everyone be self-reliant and don't make Ran Ran work too hard.

The Qiao family wanted to free up the carriage and let Qiao Ran drive the carriage, but Qiao Ran refused.

The third aunt had just given birth to a baby and was still in confinement, so she shouldn't be too tired, and there was a carriage so she could breastfeed the baby easily.

As for myself, I can perform Qing Gong when I am alone, and I will not be unable to catch up with them.

When the old village chief learned that Qiao Ran was going to escort Miss Wu back to Linzhou Fucheng, he was also very worried about Qiao Ran's safety.

Hearing that Mr. Mo was also going to Linzhou with them, he was more relieved than the Qiao family.

That Young Master Mo was no ordinary person at first glance. With him protecting Ran Yatou, and Ran Yatou having the blessing of the old god, he had nothing to worry about.

But since Ran Yatou was going to do something, he took out one of the two carriages that Qiao Ran had given to the village and asked the three of them to drive the carriage, so that Ran Yatou could drive the carriage faster when she came back.

This time, Qiao Ran did not refuse. The injured people had already recovered, everyone had finished eating, and there was actually nothing heavy to put in the two carriages.

She drove a carriage to Linzhou Fucheng, and maybe she could buy some food back and distribute it to everyone.

As soon as she left, Qiao Ran disguised herself for Wu Qianqian and Mr. Mo, then said goodbye to her family and separated from the villagers.

Mr. Mo put on Qiao Sihai's clothes again, took off his mask, and Qiao Ran drew an ugly scar on his face, which was enough to look fake and real, and the ferocious look could scare away many people.

Wu Qianqian is a young lady from a wealthy family with a pockmarked face. She wears colorful clothes found in a cottage, and her face is painted with dark brown pockmarks by Qiao Ran, which makes people shudder. appetite.

Qiao Ran herself disguised herself as a dark and ugly little maid next to the young lady and waited on her.

Originally, Qiao Ran wanted to disguise Mr. Mo and Sister Wu as a young couple, and herself as their maid.

But Young Master Mo was unwilling. He would rather be a servant than pretend to be husband and wife with Wu Qianqian.

Qiao Ran had no choice but to give up and disguise him as a carriage driver with a fierce look on his face.

Mr. Mo, the "cartman", was driving the carriage outside. Qiao Ran and Wu Qianqian were sitting in the carriage, heading all the way towards Linzhou Fucheng.

"Sister Wu, your family is in Fucheng, Linzhou. Haven't you heard about Magistrate Li arresting young men to go mining?"

In the carriage, Qiao Ran and Wu Qianqian were chatting casually.

She wanted to inquire about some things in Linzhou City, so as not to lose sight of everything and become blind.

Wu Qianqian shook her head: "I have never heard of it. Our family runs a grain store. It is neither big nor small among all the grain shops in Linzhou Fucheng. My father is busy with business all day long. I In addition to doing embroidery with my mother at home, I occasionally go to deliver goods and discuss business with my father, but I have never heard of anything about gold mining."

Qiao Ran nodded, thinking that this gold mine must have been mined privately by Magistrate Li, so most people would not know about it in secret.

However, Wu Qianqian provided a piece of news: "Although I have never heard of arresting young men to dig mines before, I discovered a strange thing. A fellow governor in the prefecture's Yamen once went to major grain stores and asked for They sold the old rice and the lowest-quality broken rice and corn that had been stored in grain stores for many years to the government at low prices. At that time, I didn’t understand why they wanted so much low-quality rice. Now that I think about it, it should be for the people in the mines. What the miners ate.”

Qiao Ran nodded.

It seems that the mine must be very large and have many miners. Otherwise, the yamen would not buy so much low-quality rice.

Qiao Ran was curious, where was the gold mine? Why is it that such a large mine is not known to the court above?

Or perhaps, it's not that I don't know, but I got wind of it, so I sent Mr. Mo over to investigate. Who would have thought that he was discovered, and was chased and intercepted by a large number of masters who wanted to kill and silence him?

Will Mr. Mo be recognized and hunted again if he goes back to Linzhou Fucheng this time?
