185 Itinerary

“That woman was crippled and she couldn’t walk, so she was raised in the Qian family.”

The news came together just as they had agreed. Zhao Zhan held his lover and began to calculate.

“Dashan and I will help each other harvest the chilies and soybeans in the field. We will thresh them and dry them under the eaves of the front yard. I’ll ask them to help look after them.

“As for the shop, I’m the one who prepares the bags for the braised meat. Aunt Chen is now in charge of this work alone. As for the soy milk and tofu pudding, I’ll prepare the brine separately. The rest will be left to Dashan.

“For the noodles. Although Chen Xiaolang is not big, he has a lot of strength. Some time ago, he took the initiative to ask me to sign a contract and he was willing to work with me full-time. I was a little hesitant at the time, but he has been helping in the shop and proving his worth. I can leave the noodles to him.

“In four days max, we can set off for Hekou County.”

Zhao Zhan thought of how Fang Tianliu had always been nagging him about the escort business, and after careful consideration. He made a decision.

“We’ll go to Huai County first and take a detour there.

“It just so happens that Manager Li of Rising Inn Cloud in Huai County sent a letter five days ago, saying that there are not many steamed meat noodles left and that they need to be restocked. I originally planned to have Fang Tianliu’s attendant bring the prepared steamed meat noodles back to Huai County, but I think I can go there on my own.

“This way, the money that we’ve taken from the shop and the money that you’ve given us can be used.”

“It’ll take half a month to travel from Huai County to Hekou County by sea though…” Yue Jiaojiao frowned slightly. “It’ll take quite a long time to travel there and back.”

“I’ll take care of you. Don’t worry.”

Zhao Zhan’s heart was heavy.

Most of the silver he had saved up had been used up to build the house and open the shop. The money he had just mentioned was at most two hundred silver.

Hekou County was a long way away, and this amount may not be enough.

“Zhao Zhan, shall we set off after the new year? It’s a little rushed now.”

It was rare for Zhao Zhan to firmly shake his head and reject her suggestion. we don’t know when those people will find you. If even doctor Zhou Can recognize you, there’s no guarantee that there aren’t other people in the town who have seen your mother in Hekou County.

“The sooner we find out the truth, the better we can ensure your safety.”

Yue Jiaojiao felt that Zhao Zhan had changed.

In the past, he was a simple-minded hunter who never wasted time thinking about anything else except killing his prey. However, during this period of time, he had grown rapidly and gradually became a man who could protect her physically and mentally.

“Doctor Zhou clearly said that I would be able to remember after drinking the medicine, but I still don’t have any memory of it.”

“Don’t over-strain yourself.” Zhao Zhan gently rubbed the top of her head. “You’ll naturally remember it when it comes.”

Chengfeng was covered in mud after rolling around in the courtyard. He rushed into the room and wanted to pounce on Yue Jiaojiao.

Zhao Zhan quickly scooped the little fellow up and spoke, “Jiaojiao, I’ll bring Chengfeng up the mountains for a run. He’s been eating too much recently and has gotten too fat. If he doesn’t go up the mountains to prowl, I’m afraid he won’t be able to even catch a rabbit in the future.”

Feeling that someone was talking bad about him, Chengfeng let out a fierce yet cute roar.

Yue Jiaojiao looked at the man and the tiger and couldn’t help but smile and nod. “He does look a little chubby. Be careful when you bring him up the mountain. Don’t let him run too far away.”

Noticing that a certain man was still staring at her, Yue Jiaojiao smiled and added, “You should be careful too.”

He was even jealous of the little tiger. What a silly man!

When she ruffled his hair, only then did Zhao Zhan become visibly happy. He picked up his weapon and carried Chengfeng up the mountain.

He was going to hunt some prey and bring them back to town to exchange for more money. Otherwise, if anything happened on the way to Hekou County, it would be too late for him to regret it.
