Gu Yundong thought sadly. If it was possible, she would also give him two taels of silver. Really, it was not easy for her to earn money.
But she wanted to live a peaceful life. It was better to be a good person.
However, 50 taels of silver was the bottom line. It could not be more.
After all, she had spent a lot of money in the Qing’an Prefecture. She had paid a sum of money for accommodation, the portrait, food, sending the letter, and buying all kinds of things. Also... Ahem, it seemed that she had not given the consultation fee to Doctor Song. Uncle Bai Yang had given the man silver as thanks, and the officers had also rewarded her.
Heh, this trip didn’t seem to be a loss.
Thinking of this, Gu Yundong felt much better.
Fifty taels of silver was not a lot at all.
After she finished pondering, she happened to see a fork in the road ahead. She quickly turned around and asked Stinky Egg, “Where...”
She stopped mid-sentence. She watched helplessly as Stinky Egg’s eyes widened like a wooden man’s, and the basket in her hand fell without warning.
Gu Yundong hurriedly shouted, grabbed the basket on her back, and placed it inside.
But Gu Yundong did not need many people. In the end, including Stinky Egg’s father, only three people were enough.
She had also seen Stinky Egg’s family. His parents were indeed very honest. He also had a timid sister who hid shyly when she saw her.
She had given 50 taels of silver to Stinky Egg’s parents and explained the situation.
The two were so excited that they cried tears of joy. They slaughtered a chicken for Gu Yundong and her mother on the spot.
Gu Yundong stayed in the village for two days before leaving. Unexpectedly, it was raining again.
Therefore, by the time she set off again, five to six days had passed.
Stinky Egg and her sister were already familiar with her and could not bear to part with her.
The rest of the journey was rather smooth, but after seeing Bian Mulan’s grave, Gu Yundong’s heart felt heavy.
Madam Yang seemed to understand and took a few days to recover.
Half a month later, the carriage finally entered the prefectural city of Yongning Prefecture.
Compared to Qing’an Prefecture, this place seemed even more desolate.
Gu Yundong found an inn and planned to stay in the city for a day before going to the county tomorrow.
However, just as she settled down and was about to bring Madam Yang out to buy some clothes, she felt as if someone was watching her from behind..
