"It's ready." The shopkeeper didn't procrastinate and happily took out the silver notes. "It would be a pity if the Lady's skills weren't revealed."

"It's a skill passed down in your family. Shopkeeper, you're not trying to steal it, right?" Mu Yunyao slightly tilted her head as the smile on her lips gradually faded.

"I don't dare, I don't dare. I'm just asking, don't worry, young lady." He still wanted to get this embroidery technique from her hands, so naturally, this relationship could not be strained.

"Since the goods and money have been paid off, even if this deal is completed, we won't disturb you any longer."

"Alright, alright. I'll send the three of you out. Do you want me to call a carriage for you?"

"No need, we still need to see Grandmother. We can arrange it ourselves." Mu Yunyao refused and took the silver before leaving the Spring Embroidery Workshop unhurriedly.

Mistress Yang was worried. When she returned to the donkey cart, she saw coroner Liu.

"Sorry for the trouble, coroner Liu." Mu Yunyao went up to pay her respects.

"Don't worry about it. When I saw this kid, I thought he was joking. I didn't expect it really was you guys coming to Yan City to treat Grandmother's illness."

"Firstly, it's to treat Grandmother's illness, and secondly, it's to ask for your help."

coroner Liu nodded his head. "But if you encounter any difficulties, feel free to tell me."

Mu Yunyao said somewhat embarrassedly, "You had asked the carriage to take us back to the village before, but now we want to go somewhere far away, and we can't find anyone we can trust. Therefore, we want to ask you to help us find one."

"Farther away?" coroner Liu paused for a moment and did not ask where they were going. He only nodded his head, "Come, let's go to the carriage shop. I'll help you find some people."

Mu Yunyao thanked him once again. Before she left, she looked at Mistress Yang and gently shook her hand. "Aunt, I'll have to trouble you to look after Grandmother for us first."

The Yang family nodded: "Don't worry."

When the carriage shop staff saw coroner Liu, they all stood up to greet him. coroner Liu and magistrate Liu were cousins, and they could not afford to offend them.

"Where's Old Zhao?"

"Old Zhao, come over here, coroner Liu is here."

"There's a job I need your help with. These two are my old friend's family, and they're going on a long journey. Help me send them off."

Old Zhao sized up Su Qing and Mu Yunyao with a simple and honest smile on his face, "Alright, don't worry. You two can just call me Old Zhao."

"Thank you, Uncle Zhao." Su Qing thanked him.

Old Zhao waved his hands and quickly went to the backyard. Soon, he came out with a new carriage, "Come on, you two. Where are you going?"

Mu Yunyao turned her head and bowed to Liu Guan, "Thank you very much, coroner Liu."

"Hurry up and go. Be careful along the way."

"Alright."

After getting on the carriage, they rushed all the way to the city gate. The Yang family helped to escort Madame Li into the carriage, their eyes were filled with reluctance: "You guys …. You should be careful. "

"Don't worry, it'll be fine." Tears welled up in Su Qing's eyes as she shook her hands tightly.

"Aunt, wait until the storm subsides, maybe we'll be back in a year or so. At that time, we'll still need to eat the food personally cooked by Aunt."

"Alright, cook as much as you want."

"Yes."

Madame Li kept feeling flustered. She looked around and howled at the top of her lungs, "Where are you bringing this old woman to, you have earned so much money …"

Mu Yunyao's eyes turned cold. She turned her head and pulled the cloth that had been wrapped in a cloth and shoved it into Madame Li's mouth.

Lady Yang was frightened and didn't dare let them delay any longer. She passed the bundle by her side to Mu Yunyao. "I've bought these according to your orders. Take them and leave quickly. Let's go."

Mu Yunyao nodded and helped Su Qing into the carriage. "Uncle Zhao, let's go."

"Alright!" The horse snorted and quickly left Yan City, heading towards the south.

After walking for half an hour, they met a fork in the road. "These two roads, one is towards Riverside City, the other is towards Eastside City. I wonder where are you and your wife going?"

Mu Yunyao opened the carriage's curtain. "Uncle Zhao, are you selling this carriage?"

"Huh?" Old Zhao thought he hadn't heard clearly, "Lady, this carriage is not for sale."

"Uncle, according to the current market price, a hundred silvers is enough for the horses and carriages. I will give you four hundred silvers, of which two hundred silvers will be your carriage and money. As for the other two hundred silvers, please take them back to coroner Liu. Tell him that it is my gift, what do you say?"

Two hundred taels. Old Zhao's eyes widened in shock. This girl didn't look that old and was dressed in fancy clothes. How could she have so much silver?

Mu Yunyao secretly clenched the powder in her hand. Only when she saw Old Zhao nod in agreement did she slightly heave a sigh of relief.

After receiving the banknotes, Old Zhao instructed her on how to drive away the horses before turning around to leave.

Su Qing was slightly afraid. This was the first time that she had travelled far.

"Yao'er …"

Mu Yunyao smiled lightly as she comforted her. "Mom is not afraid. I've asked about this a long time ago. From here to Riverside City, it's only a total of one and a half hours. Once we've reached the city, we'll make our plans." After saying that, she got into the carriage, opened the bag that the Yang family had prepared, changed into a man's outfit, wiped off the dirt on the ground, and sat on the shaft of the carriage.

It was winter, and there were very few people on the streets. Mu Yunyao and Su Qing were on tenterhooks, so they could finally see the city gates of Riverside City safely.

Mu Yunyao found a secluded spot in the forest and stopped the carriage, then lifted Madame Li off the carriage. She gently caressed the horse's neck, "It's said that old horses know the way, this place isn't far from Yan City. You should know the way back, so go find your master." He patted the horse's back as he saw the horses pull the carriage away.

"Yao'er, why did you put the horse back?"

"Mother, the journey to Jiangnan is very long, it is too difficult to travel overland, I don't know how many towns we will have to pass through along the way, but it is too dangerous for the two of us." Mother, the journey to Jiangnan is very long, it is too difficult to travel overland. For the two of us, driving a horse carriage is too obvious. It would be bad if we attract the attention of some people.

"Yes, Yao`er is still the most considerate one." Seeing that Mu Yunyao had taken everything into consideration, Su Qing's heart relaxed a lot. "It's just that, your grandmother, can we, her mother, carry her around?"

Mu Yunyao gave a cold laugh, "Grandmother, you saw it too. We can't even carry you. Why don't you just rest here for a while?"

"Yao'er, I'm your grandmother. You can't leave me here alone …." Madame Li's eyes were filled with panic. Right now, other than relying on Mu Yunyao and Su Qing, there was no other way to survive.

Su Qing's heart skipped a beat, "Yao'er, just who is she … …"

"Mother, do you remember what I told you? I broke my leg, that's what she did to me! Mother, we did not kill her. "Think about what she did before. Even though she knew that the Zhang Family is a fire pit and would have no chance of survival after entering, she still wanted to sell us for money. What's there to pity about someone like that?"

Su Qing bit her lips. After a while, she finally turned her head and walked out of the forest.
