Even though he was being soft and forceful, he didn't get any useful information. In the end, the shopkeeper only said something vaguely to indicate the meaning in his words.

As for where it actually was, it was unknown even to the storekeeper from Ninth Madame's point of view.

There was no other way. Since she couldn't continue staying in the store, even if she didn't want to, she could only obediently leave.

As for where they were going to go next, Nona was also a head full of sewage, and she had no good ideas at all.

"Elder sister, elder sister …" "So many people …"

However, Nona was still worried, so she carefully helped him up. He was a treasure, he absolutely couldn't be careless in the slightest. On the other side, Min'er was tugging on Ninth Mother's sleeve as she walked, and the little girl was tugging at her sleeve with all her might as she pointed timidly into the distance.

Nona paused for a moment and turned around. She saw ten or so bailiffs driving five or six people out of an inn.

From the looks of it, those people should be staying in an inn.

"Who would've thought …"

Suddenly, Nona was startled, realizing that the shopkeeper had not lied to her. "It seems like this Jincheng City is no longer safe."

Yes, it seems that this Jincheng City is no longer safe.

"Elder sister …"

Min'er was clueless as to what had happened. She pulled on her wine sleeve timidly, her face pale as she looked pitifully at Jiu Niang. Jiu Niang could not bear to see her. "It's alright. Big sister is here."

Although Jiu Niang said this, her heart began to beat wildly. With the current situation in Jincheng, it was likely that someone realized that it would only get more chaotic if this went on, which was why they took action in advance.

However, this way …

"Where are we going next?"

Situ Xi's eyebrows were also tightly furrowed. She was already pale, so which part of her was more bloodless?

Due to his high status, he had encountered many threats and almost lost his life many times. However, no matter what, there was always someone protecting him. No matter what happened, it would all be resolved before he realized it. Even if they were useless, there would still be people who would be willing to be their meat shield …

But this time, he truly felt danger.

He only had two little girls by his side, and one was smaller than the other. If anything happened to him, he might have to protect them.

"Let's go home."

Taking a deep breath, Nona finally made a difficult decision.

Yes, go home.

Looking at the situation, the outside world was in chaos. They might have to deal with something else. They were in danger outside. If they were kicked out like refugees, it would be troublesome. Putting everything else aside, Situ Xi's life might not even be spared. Not only that, but there were also countless pairs of eyes watching Situ Xi from the shadows. If she were to be discovered, she might not even be able to keep her life.

Originally, she was worried that those people would return, so she brought Situ Xi and Min'er with her to hide. But now … There didn't seem to be a safe home outside. In this kind of situation, there was no other choice. Since that was the case, he could only go home.

"Fine."

Situ Xi pondered for a moment. She frowned as if she disagreed, but soon nodded her head.

There was no other way. In such a situation, it was even more dangerous outside …

"In that case, let's go back."

As soon as Nona entered the room, she discovered the five thousand taels of silver on the table. However, she simply put it away without disturbing Min Er and Situ Xi.

Since there were silver notes on the table, it could only mean one thing: someone had been here before.

There had been someone at home the last few days they were gone, but who was it? Why put silver on the table?

No matter how much she thought about it, she just couldn't understand it. After settling down Min'er and Situ Xi, she decided to go out and see if she could buy some necessities. With the current situation, the following days would only get more and more chaotic. Therefore, it was best to prepare some things as early as possible.

"Situ Xi, I'll go out and see if I can buy some necessities. Min'er will be with you at home. If there's a knock on the door, don't open it, either of you. "

When she wanted to leave, Jiu Niang was still a little worried that the two of them would be at home. In Jiu Niang's eyes, they were children, so she couldn't help but give them some advice.

"Don't worry, I'm not a child. Be careful."

This was the first time Situ Xi had been reminded by a little girl who was even younger than herself. She was a bit embarrassed, but she still faintly smiled.

He had grown up outside. Although he never lacked people, those people were still different from him. They could die for him, but they definitely wouldn't treat him like an ordinary child … So, this was the first time that he was being treated like an ordinary child …

To be honest, this feeling...

Not bad.

"Mm, that's good." Situ Xi wasn't an unreliable person. Moreover, his safety was at stake, so Nona believed that he would definitely be cautious. "Min'er, be good and stay at home with big brother. Don't run around. Big sister will be back soon."

Min Er had always been a good girl, but she was still a child. No matter where she went, Min Er would always follow her. Min Er refused to leave her side. She had no choice but to take him.

Although he told them that he was going out to buy something, he still wanted to check out the situation outside. After all, it was chaotic outside and he didn't know anything about the situation, so it was better for him to be clear.

If he was alone and met with any trouble, he would be able to hide in space. However, if he brought Min'er along, Min'er wouldn't be able to enter space. Even if she could, Nona wouldn't want to expose her secret in front of Min'er.

After all, space was his biggest reliance. Although he had gotten along well with Min Er recently, she couldn't guarantee that nothing would happen in the future. It's not that she doesn't believe you, Min'er, but this is a matter of life and death.

"Alright, sister, be careful."

Min'er didn't know what was going on in Nona's heart, so she obediently waved her hand. At the same time, she didn't forget to remind Nona.

Although she also wanted to follow Nona, she knew a lot of things, even though it was small. It was very dangerous outside, and if she followed her sister, not only would she be unable to help, but she would also place a burden on her sister.

Furthermore, this older brother didn't look like a bad person. Min Er obediently walked to Situ Jin's side, holding his hand and obediently smiling. Situ Jin also gently touched her forehead, and smiled, "Don't worry!"

"Sir, sir, listen to me. We are serious merchants."

"Sir, please trust us …"

"Lu Yin, I have Lu Yin. Our Lu Yin …"

"Cut the crap. Leave Jincheng immediately. If you dare to not leave, don't blame me for being rude."

Jincheng City was a transport fortress and a lot of customers came and went. Although due to the natural disaster in recent months, the number of customers had decreased a lot, but there were still a lot of people living in this city. Now, most of the guests had been driven out of the city.

Most of these people had suffered from doing business. It wasn't easy for them to get to Jincheng City. They wanted to rest here for the time being and wait for this disaster to pass.

But now …

"Sigh!"

Nona looked at him and shook her head helplessly.

Although he felt some sympathy for these people, after all … After all, he couldn't even protect himself right now, much less protect these people … Right now, he had to think about how he could successfully overcome this tribulation …

"That's right! Xu Tianshong! Why didn't I think of it! "

No matter how she thought about it, she couldn't come up with a solution. Suddenly, Jiu Niang's eyes lit up. Why hadn't she thought of Xu Tianyun?

That Xu Qiuyi seemed to be very familiar with the Prefect. If he didn't want anything else, he should be able to get a household register, right?

Of course, it wasn't that she hadn't thought of Xu Tianyun. After the three of them left, she thought of Xu Tianyun. The only people she knew in Jincheng was Xu Tianyun and Xu Mantian, and at that time, she had thought of asking Xu Tianyun for help. However, after thinking about it, he eventually gave up on that idea …

After all, Situ Xi's identity shouldn't be ordinary. Moreover, since he was found by the Prefect and Xu Million, he naturally knew of his identity. The reason Little White didn't ask for their help at that time was probably because he didn't want them to know about it. Even though she trusted Xu Tianyi, in the end … Xu Tianlong was Xu Qiuyi's blood relative, and each and every one of his actions were right under Xu Qiuyi's eyes. If Xu Tianlong knew about it, then it meant that even millions of people knew about it …

"One step at a time."

However, the situation was critical. Right now, they were only expelling the guests from the inn and the wine house. However … But according to the shopkeeper … Maybe if they went door-to-door when the time comes …

At this moment, Nona rejoiced in her heart. Fortunately, she had gritted her teeth and spent a large sum of money to buy the house. The granny broker was also very kind and had even set up an account for her. Of course, according to the rules of this dynasty, as long as there was a property worth more than a certain amount of money, one could apply for an household register.

"Bang bang bang …"

"Creak!"

The Xu family's door was easy to find. Soon enough, Nona found the Xu family. Without hesitation, she went up and knocked on the door. An old servant opened the door and looked at her doubtfully, "Miss, is there something you need?"

"Uncle, I'm your young master's friend. I'm here to look for him."

Nona nodded politely and directly introduced herself.

She didn't know what to do about the household register. It was the woman broker who helped her, but she couldn't find her now.

Otherwise, he would have gone to look for the owner of the inn, but after they left, the boss closed his doors and he probably wouldn't be able to find anyone now.

Now, he could only find Xu Tianshi …

"Young Master Tian Ci, young lady, you have come at the wrong time. My young master has already left Jincheng City for Beijing."
