Farm Girl Turns Everything Around: Sly Husband, Let's Farm

Chapter 1111: Chapter 1111: Arrival in the Capital City (Third Update)_1 Chapter 1111: Chapter 1111: Arrival in the Capital City (Third Update)_1 Tong Sanlang stood to the side and couldn’t help but twitch his mouth corner at Yang Wenxiao’s words–it was as if they were using a wanted notice to search for his parents…

But he had to admit, it was the fastest way.

As long as Tong Xingda and the Zhang Family were really in the Capital City, any commoner who had seen them would surely pass on the news.

A thousand taels– even some minor officials would be tempted by such an amount.

Now, speaking of the three, Tong Xingda, Zhang Family, and Qiao Meipan.

The trio only traveled on the official road for one night, and at dawn, Tong Xingda had the coachman turn onto a bypath.

He had guessed that Tong Tiehu would send people from Tingfeng Pavilion after them, hence they couldn’t take the main road.

After traveling on bypaths for two days, he once more found a barely discernable path that led towards the Capital City, off the three smaller paths.

Having mixed with Deng Chun before, he possessed some ability for counter-surveillance.

The journey was far from enjoyable; although they evaded Tingfeng Pavilion, the trio, including the coachman, suffered greatly due to the severe jolting of the carriage. The coachman demanded more silver, and after an additional ten taels were handed over, their trip to the Capital City continued.

Moreover, the remote path lacked any houses, so they subsisted on dry Steamed Buns and drank cold water. In the still chilly February, it was indeed a harsh experience.

After seven to eight days of rough travel, they finally reached the Capital City.

They alighted from the carriage at the city gates and entered the city on foot.

Their clothes were neither good nor bad, typical of ordinary citizens of the Capital City. However, since they came down from the carriage with bundles, they looked like travelers from out of town, so the soldiers guarding the city came to question them.

Tong Xingda was used to this and immediately gave a name from Bailu Town, claiming they had come to the Capital City to visit relatives. The soldiers verified their household registration and, finding it to match, allowed the three of them to enter.

Giving a name from Bailu Town meant that even if Yu Ang personally came to inquire, nothing would be found.

Once inside the city, Tong Xingda immediately found the nearest restaurant and ordered a table full of dishes to properly reward their stomachs which had suffered over the past few days.

Zhang Family, seeing him throw around money, became anxious as dishes of various meats were brought to the table one after another, “Head of the family, isn’t this too extravagant? How can we eat like this?”

With more than a thousand taels of silver on Tong Xingda, in the Capital City territory, it could easily disappear with casual spending!

Tong Xingda, impatient with her nagging, said, “Eat it or leave it.”

They were planning to go find Bai Zhi soon. With the grudge between Bai Zhi and Qiao Xiaomai, they should receive a generous welcome.

Once at the Wang Residence, where both food and lodging were covered, he certainly wouldn’t have to spend his own silver anymore.

Even if Bai Zhi didn’t help, he could go to Yu Ang.

He didn’t believe Yu Ang would let his only nephew go hungry.

So you see, as long as they were within the Capital City territory, there was no need to worry about silver.

Eat what you should eat, drink what you should drink!

Zhang Family might be concerned about the silver, but Qiao Meipan certainly wasn’t. She had always been lazy and gluttonous, and now that Tong Xingda was being so generous, she naturally wanted to benefit as well.

Seeing Tong Xingda tear into a chicken leg, she too picked up chopsticks, aiming only for the meat.

Ever since Sun Junyan had been locked in the jail, she hadn’t eaten meat so thoroughly and happily.

Zhang Family saw Tong Xingda digging in and Qiao Meipan doing the same without any reserve, so she bit her lip and started eating with chopsticks as well.

Well, she thought, might as well fill the stomach first.

If they fell onto hard times without silver in the future, then they would just seize Qiao Meipan’s silver!

And if that wasn’t enough, they would sell Qiao Meipan!

She had eaten so much of the Tong Family’s resources–Zhang Family remembered that account very clearly!
