After marrying the fierce god, her handsome young husband was pampered to the extreme.

Yuanbao pushed Jiang Xiao aside, "Fourth Uncle said—"

Lin Siheng shoved her younger brother aside with her hand on his head and asked the little liar, "What do you want from me?"

Yuanbao: ? ? ?

Yuanbao stared at his cousin in disbelief, his expression as if he were looking at a heartless scumbag.

The conman asked in a soft, low voice, "Where are you going next?"

"Yuezhou".

The little swindler's eyes darkened; his dream of traveling together was now completely shattered.

"Oh……"

"Wait, don't speak yet." Lin Siheng opened the window next to him, and two heads popped out.

Xiao Zhai remained expressionless, while Xiao Li's eyes shone brightly.

The onlookers were already in position.

Lin Siheng: "...What are you two doing here?"

Xiao Li's gaze darted back and forth between Lin Siheng and Jiang Xiao, her eyes full of gossip, but she said, "Reflecting on life. Ah, how beautiful the sunrise is today."

Lin Siheng slammed the window shut and pulled Jiang Xiao outside.

Yuanbao looked hurt. "No, Heng-ge, you..."

As they passed Yuanbao, Lin Siheng patted his younger brother on the shoulder and said, "We'll talk about it when I get back."

The window was pushed open, and Xiao Li said, "Young Master, come back, let's play cards together."

Yuanbao: I'm tired.

I kept my cousin in my heart, and my cousin put me on the ground.

Lin Siheng pulled Jiang Xiao to a secluded spot on the back street, where willows swayed gently and a small stream flowed swiftly.

Jiang Xiao kicked at the pebbles at her feet, not daring to look at the boy.

The four of them could have gone to the capital on their own, but after being provoked by Yuan Yuan, they acted impulsively and came to discuss it with someone.

If Lin Siheng goes in the same direction as them, that would be even better.

Jiang Xiao would never dare to say, "Please escort us to the capital."

He knew that his first impression on the boy must be very bad, otherwise why would the boy always call him a little liar?

He's starting to have second thoughts.

Thinking to myself: Since it's not on my way, I might as well just forget about it.

Lin Siheng took the initiative to speak, asking, "You're planning to go to the capital, right?"

Jiang Xiao gave a soft "hmm".

Lin Siheng said, "If you're not in a hurry, you can come with me to Yuezhou. We'll travel by water, taking a boat along the Wuding River to Mingzhou."

You can also attend a banquet while you're there.

Jiang Xiao's eyes lit up, and she immediately asked happily, "Can we travel together?"

"Sure, I'm going back to the capital anyway."

Jiang Xiao pursed her lips and gently curved them into a smile.

He often fakes a smile, so much so that even when he does smile genuinely now, it looks like he's faking it.

Lin Siheng, however, couldn't sense it. He felt that the little liar was like a shy little flower today, a flower that was about to bloom but couldn't, making people's hearts itch.

"Then...when are you going to Yuezhou?" Jiang Xiao quickly asked, "We're staying at the Fulin Inn right now."

Lin Siheng nodded, "Okay, I'll pick you up at Fulin Inn when I leave."

Jiang Xiao nodded, "Mm!"

This place is not far from his friend's house where he is celebrating his birthday. If he were to travel using his light-footed skills, he would arrive in about two or three days.

However, if we bring along four more dependents, we'll probably need to rent a car.

Lin Siheng pondered that buying a motorhome was an option, but he would definitely need to arrange for shipping when returning to Beijing by boat.

It would be better to rent a horse-drawn carriage, and the driver can drive it back when we arrive at our destination.

Jiang Xiao had no idea that Lin Siheng had already started considering traveling; he was currently quite happy.

Traveling with Lin Siheng, we will definitely not encounter any more danger in the future.

Once the puppy found its family in Beijing, the group of them looked for work there.

When they save up enough money to rent a small courtyard, they'll have their own home, and their lives will definitely be better.

Seeing the faint smile on the little liar's face, Lin Siheng's mood instantly improved.

It was midday, and the restaurant was busy welcoming guests. Lin Siheng found a few taels of silver in his pocket and thought he might as well take everyone out for a meal.

"Little liar." Lin Siheng put his arm around Jiang Xiao's shoulder. "Come on, I'll take you to eat."

Jiang Xiaosheng wasn't as pretty as Yuanyuan. She had also been sexually harassed by some hooligans when she was working outside.

Either my waist was touched, or my hand was pinched.

However, at that time, the four of them had just escaped from that dangerous place and were penniless.

If they don't get their wages, they'll have to resort to begging.

In order to survive, he endured all the grievances and sadness.

He just smiled like that, without any dignity, as tenacious as the weeds growing in the cracks between the bricks.

Later, he learned how to subtly avoid the advances of those lecherous men, and he also learned how to grow wildly amidst the storms of life.

He could have avoided Lin Siheng's touch.

He didn't hide.

Lin Siheng only had a faint scent of soap on him; he used to be used to the smell of soap when he was washing clothes to earn money.

The taste was so familiar that Jiang Xiao felt no danger whatsoever.

"Where should we eat?" Jiang Xiao asked, looking up at him.

Lin Siheng looked around. "There's braised pork over there, wanna eat?"

Jiang smiled and said, "I'll do whatever you say."

Before leaving, Yuanyuan gave him one tael of silver.

After all, this is considered asking someone for a favor, so both sides have to do some superficial things to save face.

For example, treating someone to a meal.

Yuan Yuan also asked Jiang Xiao to find out how much this young hero usually charges for doing things for others, since they only have a little over thirty taels of silver in total.

He had heard that these江湖人 (jianghu people) always charged at least a hundred taels of silver for doing favors.

Some even cost thousands of taels.

If this young hero could reduce the fee since we know each other, that would be even better.

Jiang Xiao just hadn't dared to ask.

Unexpectedly, it was Lin Siheng who brought it up first, and she didn't even ask them for money...

Since he didn't say, I guess he doesn't want it.

He also didn't ask him to return the fifty taels he had given for treating Wang Yi and the puppy's injuries.

Jiang Xiao began to question his life. Was speaking in a high-pitched voice really that valuable?

Lin Siheng had no idea that the little liar was currently going through a thousand different thoughts.

He put his arm around the little swindler's shoulder and felt that the little swindler was really too thin.

You know, back then, little Pearl was all soft flesh, and the flesh on her wrists would bounce back when you pinched it!

Look at the little swindler's skinny arms and legs, only his buttocks have a bit more flesh.

As Lin Siheng pondered this, he realized something was amiss.

He quickly shook his head, trying to shake away the unclean thoughts in his mind.

He's destined to be a renowned martial arts master; how could he be thinking about such trivial things? It's actually slowing him down.

However, the culprit suddenly tugged at his clothes, nearly shattering his dream of becoming a chivalrous hero.

"What do you want to eat?" Jiang Xiao asked in a high-pitched voice.

They had already arrived at the entrance of the braised pork shop.

Lin Siheng coughed twice, pressing his fist to his lips, and said to the shopkeeper, "Two bowls of each kind."

Jiang Xiao touched the loose silver coin at her waist without making a sound, secretly relieved that she could still afford two bowls of braised pork.
