Traveling through ancient times: daily life on the run

Chapter 148 Find a way to escape

Luo Yu just wanted to have a good sleep, and Qin Bingrui stayed by her bed with his eyes closed.

It was almost dawn, and Luo Yu asked her to go to the couch and have a good sleep. Qin Bingrui staggered to the couch and fell asleep in seconds.

Luo Yu got up and covered her with a thin blanket. Mid-Autumn Festival was approaching, and the weather was gradually getting cooler. They had to hurry on their way. Even though the south didn't get cold quickly, it would be best if they could reach Qianzhou before winter set in.

Before they knew it, they had been in this dynasty for five months.

Luo Yu continued to close his eyes and rest for a while, then heard a noisy sound again.

She quickly got up and went out to wash her face and rinse her mouth, only to see that Master Murong was already practicing boxing. He was truly a self-disciplined young man.

"Miss Bai, you got up so early!"

"Woke up."

"..."

Luo Yu and Murong walked into the clinic together. The people who came were Ye Yucheng, Yan Xuan, He Yuan, and several guards.

"Miss Bai, Master Murong, why are you here too?"

Luo Yu raised his eyebrows: "Why are you here too?"

After saying that, he glanced at Ye Yucheng out of the corner of his eye, wondering how many things this man had asked Yan Xuan.

Ye Yucheng always had a very serious expression. He looked only about twenty-five or twenty-six years old, but he looked mature as if he had lived for a long time.

"Miss Bai, I heard from Envoy Ye that you helped save Brother Qi. Thank you."

"Oh, he woke up?" Although he didn't know the name of the unconscious person, but from what Yan Xuan said, the eldest brother with the surname Qi should be that person.

Ye Yucheng said to her and Master Murong: "Thank you for saving my life."

This person is not too rigid and still has the necessary friendship.

When Doctor Liu heard that the person had woken up, he was very excited and kept saying, "This is a treasure, a great treasure." He then came over to thank Master Murong and Luo Yu.

"Mr. Murong, I am very grateful for your and Madam's help. This old man's clinic is now saved."

If he could make this medical ethanol and sell it to rich people, he would be able to save his clinic. But he would not be able to get back the money that the poor people had spent on their medical treatment.

Yan Xuan opened his eyes wide, with an incredible expression: "Miss Bai, when did you marry Mr. Murong?"

Murong's eyes were wandering around, he didn't want to admit that he was forced.

Luo Yu smiled softly: "There are so many things you don't know, why should I tell you everything?"

Yan Xuan curled his lips. He didn't believe that Master Murong would marry this mean-spirited woman. Besides, he had just sent Madam Bai and Young Master Bai away. How could they get married without a matchmaker and their parents' permission?

Ye Yucheng wasn't surprised; he hadn't believed it in the first place. Only Doctor Liu was surprised. He didn't believe his assumptions were wrong. These two had clearly lived together before, and they were in love and treated each other with respect. How could they not be a real couple?

"But Miss Bai and Mr. Murong are indeed a perfect match. They are a match made in heaven, both talented and beautiful."

There is no way that Old Man Liu doesn't want to believe them.

Yan Xuan nodded as if suddenly realizing something, saying, "So you two have been secretly in love for a long time. Could it be that you've already made an engagement? No wonder you're so often together. I see."

Luo Yu really wanted to cover his mouth and hit him on the head.

Young Master Murong remained indifferent. He glanced at Luo Yu's expression out of the corner of his eye, trying to observe what she meant. However, there was not a trace of shyness on her face.

Yan Xuan walked over and patted Murong on the shoulder, saying in a very mature tone: "Congratulations, Brother Murong, I didn't expect you to have such a unique taste."

Luo Yu turned to Yan Xuan and sneered, "Yan Xuan, if you ever find a wife, she'll definitely make you shut up the moment you speak, or even turn you mute as soon as possible."

"I won't look for a fierce woman."

"You will find a tigress." Luo Yu snorted and turned away.

Murong helplessly spread his hands and said to Yan Xuan seriously: "Miss Bai is not as you say. She is affectionate and righteous, and a kind and good girl."

He Yuan murmured to himself: "It's true that people who fall in love can't distinguish right from wrong."

Yan Xuan nodded and said to Ye Yucheng worriedly, "Envoy Ye, please don't be fooled by them. Miss Bai and Miss Qin only say the truth."

They were dumped all over the place, but they still had to do things for them willingly. Every time they thought about it afterwards, they felt regretful.

Ye Yucheng didn't say anything. These two guys were obviously stupid, but they had to blame the girl for being cunning.

"Have you White Tigers found any trace?"

Yan Xuan and He Yuan immediately lowered their heads.

"Not yet."

"But I'm certain Baihu isn't with Prince Ning. Prince Ning and his men have already left Lezhu County by boat for Jiangzhou."

"Report to me when you find it." Ye Yucheng said coldly.

"Yes."

Qin Bingrui just woke up and walked to the door, a beautiful curve on his lips. Ye Yucheng really has a good temper and is very patient with his subordinates. If these two useless guys worked under him, he would at least scold them.

Only after seeing the two boys leave in embarrassment did Qin Bingrui walk out.

"Good morning, Envoy Ye. Are your brothers feeling better?"

"Thank you Miss Qin for your concern. They are fine now."

"That's fine. This ethanol disinfection method is a recipe passed down by our master, and it's not usually taught to outsiders. We've been connected for some time, and you've helped me before. Miss Bai also said I can give you the recipe. After all, you go on so many missions, so it's inevitable that you'll get some knife and arrow wounds. This medical ethanol is very effective for disinfecting wounds and preventing infection, and it can greatly reduce the mortality rate."

"Thank you for your kindness, young lady."

"only……"

Ye Yucheng knew what she wanted to say. There could be no compromise on the issue of Baihu, and other matters could be discussed later.

Qin Bingrui raised his eyebrow and said, "Forget it, let's go have breakfast first."

He casually instructed: "Call someone to help light the fire. Miss Bai is making wontons this morning, and everyone can have some."

Luo Yu and Master Murong were busy in the kitchen. Her arms were too heavy to knead the dough or roll it out, so Master Murong helped her knead the dough while Qin Bingrui rolled out the dough. The young apprentice from the clinic was called to chop meat and leeks.

All that’s missing is someone to light the fire and cook the soup.

After a while, Yan Xuan and He Yuan were called to help.

Although Luo Yu's arms couldn't be used too hard, it was still no big deal for him to make wontons.

After working for half an hour, they cooked a big pot of wontons. Luo Yu calculated the amount. They were all grown men, and if each person had thirty wontons, he would have to cook thousands of wontons.

Forget it, she still asked Yan Xuan to help her make wonton wrappers. Her hands couldn't be busy all the time.

Yan Xuan's hands were so busy that they made double reflections. There was nothing he could do. After all, they were all from the Imperial City Bureau, so he couldn't complain.

Luo Yu added several pieces of pork ribs to the wonton soup, and also added green onions, shrimp skin and pepper powder, which was very fragrant.

He Yuan called a few guards and asked them to help wash the newly bought bowls, and asked the rest of the people to line up one by one to get wontons.

A good medical clinic has become a restaurant.

But the wontons cooked by Luo Yu are really delicious. You can also add seasonings by yourself. Soy sauce, vinegar, and coriander are all prepared according to your own preferences.

Dozens of guards squatted in front of the clinic with bowls in hand and ate. One of them finished thirty wontons in one breath, but felt that his stomach was only one-third full.

With this kind of eating habits, Qin Bingrui thought that his plan to form an army had failed.

Young Master Murong could never have imagined that he, a manor owner who was both civil and military savvy, would one day get cramps in his hands from kneading dough.

Luo Yu sent someone to the town shop to buy another stone of white flour, saying that the broth couldn't be wasted and could be used to make ramen noodles. Fortunately, the guards, who were already full of food, couldn't bear to ask them to spend money and labor, and they all rushed over to help.

Master Murong and Qin Bingrui finally had some free time and sighed softly.

As the three of them gathered around a table to eat wontons, Qin Bingrui asked Luo Yu, "Sister, what's going on here?"

"We are grateful for the kindness we receive from our customers. We have provided them with treatment and money to buy them food. Can they really kill us without mercy in the future?"

Murong's eyes darkened. It turned out that this woman was calculating when she was nice to others.

Qin Bingrui laughed cheerfully: "That's right. Next time when we cook for them, we'll just put laxatives in it. That way we can get away with it."

Young Master Murong didn't know whether to be happy or sad. They actually gave him bad advice in front of him. They really didn't treat him as an outsider.

I just feel a little regretful about the wontons I just ate. I don’t know if it’s too late to spit them out.

Luo Yu had a smile on his face, which was meaningful.
