Treating the Concubine, Eliminating the Wife: Reborn, I Refuse to Marry the Scumbag and Marry the Pr

A group of people walked on the official road, with several horses in front and behind, and the people on the horses were carrying weapons such as swords.

There were several carriages driving in the middle, one of which was a simple-looking carriage.

Immediately, a woman in heroic attire glanced at the sky, rode to the carriage, straightened her appearance first, and then spoke: "Master Shi——"

As soon as she opened her mouth, there was a burst of laughter from behind. Someone imitated her and pinched her throat and said, "Master Shi——"

The woman turned her head and glared, drew her sword and pointed it at the other person as a warning. When she turned around, she changed her face and whispered softly: "Master Shi, this is still a long way from the next city. We are going to rest here tonight. We'll be on the road again tomorrow morning. I'll boil some hot water for you two to wash up later."

In the car, Shen Yu looked distressed, cleared her throat and said, "Miss He, I'm sorry."

"No trouble, no trouble."

After He Xuehui finished speaking, she ran to the back of the horse, took a whip and whipped the horse hard like hers.

Xie Tingzhou leaned on the cushions and smiled, listening to the sound of horse hooves walking away, and said slowly: "This Miss He is very discerning."

Shen Yu silently turned her back to Xie Tingzhou.

I don't know if He Xuehui is blind, but he can't see such an amazing and talented person like Xie Tingzhou here. On the contrary, he has been courting Shen Yu frequently in the past two days.

This matter has to start from the day I parted ways with my husband.

After crossing the river that day, Xie Tingzhou was in poor health and could not walk quickly. They walked more than ten miles from early morning to noon. However, the two of them were lucky and met an escort team after they got to the official road.

The escort took them into Pingtan County and separated from them.

Escorts earn their hard-earned money, and taking them along for a ride is the ultimate act of benevolence.

They originally stayed at the worst inn in Pingtan County that night. After nightfall, Shen Yu quietly went out after Xie Tingzhou fell asleep.

When they got up in the morning, the escort was already waiting at the door of the inn. They said that they were going to escort the escort to Shengjing and they just happened to give them a ride.

But he changed his mind overnight, and looking at his attentive attitude, he didn't even believe Xie Tingzhou without paying.

But where the money came from is a question.

The carriage stopped in the leeward place. It was freezing outside, so the two of them did not get out of the car.

Xie Tingzhou opened the curtain with two fingers and looked outside. Yu Guangxian saw Shi Yu pull two sesame seed cakes out of the bag and handed one to him.

"Do you want to eat?"

As soon as Xie Tingzhou let go, the curtain was put back on the window.

When Shen Yu saw that he didn't answer, she started eating by herself.

Xie Tingzhou watched silently, simply lying down and watching him chew the cake.

The cake was hard and tasted like chaff.

Xie Tingzhou waited for him to take the last bite into his mouth, and suddenly said: "If you have so much money, why live such a miserable life."

"Ahem—" Shen Yu suddenly choked on the dry biscuit and beat her chest hard.

Xie Tingzhou looked at him for a moment, slapped him on the back suddenly, and finally swallowed the cake.

Shen Yu quibbled, "Where did I get the money?"

Xie Tingzhou held his head, "Then you have to ask yourself. I'm also very curious about this question."

In fact, he woke up as soon as Shigure got up that night, but he kept silent and watched him sneak out and come back. The escort agency came early the next morning. This was something that could never be done without money.

His eyes were firm and he could see that Shen Yu had nothing to hide.

Xie Tingzhou is not someone who is easy to fool, and ordinary excuses will definitely not fool him.

Shen Yu thought about it for a moment. A simple lie could be easily exposed, but the least likely thing to be exposed was a lie that was both true and false.

"I went out secretly that night."

"Yeah, I know." Xie Tingzhou said

Shen Yu couldn't help but be frightened. He was really holding his breath. He had been on the road with the escort for three days before he asked.

He secretly rejoiced that he had not lied just now, otherwise Xie Tingzhou would have exposed him immediately.

She glanced at Xie Tingzhou. He was leaning on the soft cushion, tapping his fingers on his bent knees, as if waiting for an answer.

"After I went out, I went to a wealthy merchant in the city." Shen Yu paused, looking at his face, and then said, "I went to borrow some money."

Xie Tingzhou: "Borrow?"

Shen Yu said: "I borrowed it secretly."

Xie Tingzhou let out a chuckle, "Stealing is stealing, and I borrowed it secretly."

Shen Yu was dissatisfied, "Robbing the rich and giving to the poor, it just so happens that we are all impoverished now."

Otherwise, where did this carriage come from? Where did the escort agency come from? Can you live comfortably here without money? Can your golden body bear it?

"Don't stare at people like that when you do bad things in the future," Xie Tingzhou said, "You can't hide things with those eyes of yours."

It seems that he has developed a habit recently. Whenever he doesn't tease Shigure, he always feels that there is something wrong with him.

Shen Yu quickly looked away, "It was indeed stolen, but it wasn't the palace that enjoyed it... wasn't it you? Then this money can be considered as what you owe."

Xie Tingzhou discovered that this person had a habit of kicking his nose and face.

I used to be respectful to him in the army, but after getting along with him during this time, I became more and more unruly.

Xie Tingzhou felt funny when he looked at him and asked, "Then how much did you steal...borrow?"

Shen Yu almost burst into laughter and took out a stack of banknotes from her chest.

Xie Tingzhou took it and turned it over. The banknote was still warm.

He nodded slightly and said, "It's quite a lot. I'm very good at 'borrowing'."

Shen Yu pursed her lips and said, "You'd better stop praising me."

She reached out to take it, but Xie Tingzhou raised her hand and refused to give it to him.

"This is my money." Shen Yu said seriously.

Xie Tingzhou counted the banknotes slowly and said casually: "Didn't you say that I owe it to you? Since I owe it, the principal should also fall into my hands, what do you think?"

Shen Yu was finally convinced.

Since you are a natural eloquent, why bother here to embarrass others? Why don't you just talk?

Xie Tingzhou had enough of teasing and threw the banknote into his arms. He smiled and said, "Keep it. With such a big sum of money, be careful of someone murdering you."

Shen Yu put the banknote in her arms and whispered: "Even if we die, we will die together. But don't worry, I will be your bodyguard on the way to hell."

Xie Tingzhou's smile remained unchanged, but the temperature in his eyes gradually cooled down.

He remembered the woman lying on the ground and screaming at him.

She said, Xie Yun, you don't deserve a good death. People like you deserve to be alone all your life. After death, you will fall into the Abi Hell and never be reincarnated.

Xie Tingzhou looked at Shigure quietly.

If that person was still alive, he would definitely ask her to come and take a look.

Look, there is someone who wants to be my companion on the road to hell. Everything you said is wrong.

Shen Yu didn't notice his expression, so she collected the banknotes, opened the curtain and got out of the carriage.

The curtain was lowered and she turned back to stare at the carriage for a few moments.

She breathed a sigh of relief, finally deceiving Xie Tingzhou.

It was already dark, and a bonfire was burning not far away.

Shen Yu sat down by the campfire, took a stick and dug it into the fire, thinking about it.

After she secretly went out that night, she went to the shop owned by Lu in the city.

In previous years, she was either at the border or at her grandmother's house in Hezhou, and had helped her manage the accounts for a period of time. She carried the Lu family's seal on her body, and she could mention money to any of the Lu family's shops in the Great Zhou Dynasty.

But she couldn't let Xie Tingzhou know. Once her identity was exposed, whether she could continue to be with Xie Tingzhou was a big question.

When Luyao and Hongqiao left Yanliangguan that day, Shen Yu had arranged errands for them.

She wrote two letters respectively. Hongqiao was responsible for going to Hezhou and delivering the letter to her grandmother, while Luyao returned to Beijing and handed another letter to Shen Yan, explaining to her the subsequent arrangements at home and her father. How to manage the funeral of my brother.

Now that she is delayed on the road, I don't know if they have managed to get things done.

After all, my father's funeral should be over by now.

For some reason, she always felt uneasy, as if something was twisting in a direction beyond her control.
