Chapter 39 Countdown to the Natural Disaster

Fu Yanting folded his arms and said slowly, “You wouldn’t want to stay and have dinner with that young master from the Wan family, would you?”

Fu Jianghong immediately got up, ignoring her injury, “Big brother, I’ll go get the horse!”

Chu Chenyin turned around and chased after her, “Third sister, be careful of your injury!”

Fu Jianghong waved her hand as she walked, “Sister-in-law, it’s okay, don’t come over, the stable is dirty!”

“Can you even walk with your leg?!” Chu Chenyin asked worriedly.

Fu Jianghong laughed loudly, “Even if this leg is useless, I can still walk!”

Yeah, she really did kick her own brother.

Fu Yanting slowly walked towards them, looking at Chu Chenyin, his hand occasionally touching his bitten lip. A smile involuntarily appeared on his wild face.

The three of them rode their horses and rushed to Mengru County.

After returning home, Fu Jianghong remembered to ask about the gold, “Big brother, was there really a gold mine in that cave?”

Fu Yanting shook his head solemnly, “No, there was nothing inside, it was empty.”

Fu Jianghong hung her head and sighed, “Oh, what a waste of a trip.”

Chu Chenyin washed the fruit she had bought and placed it on the table, “It wasn’t a waste. Look, we bought a lot of fruit.”

Fu Jianghong picked up a piece of fruit and took a bite, still sulking, “How could it be empty? It’s such a bummer.”

“It’s good that it’s empty. Let the Wan family and the Chu family be disappointed!” Fu Xingcheng walked over, picked up a piece of fruit, tossed it up, caught it, and took a bite.

As he chewed, his gaze fell on Fu Yanting’s lips, “Big brother, what happened to your mouth?”

Fu Jianghong also looked over and noticed the injury on his lips, “Yeah, big brother, how did you get a cut? I remember you were fine when we went up the mountain.”

Fu Yanting reached out and touched his lips, glanced at Chu Chenyin, “I bit myself.”

Fu Jianghong and Fu Xingcheng clearly didn’t believe him.

However, they were both unmarried and didn’t know anything about men and women, so they couldn’t guess the reason.

Only Chu Chenyin’s cheeks were red as if they were about to bleed.

She couldn’t blame Fu Yanting entirely for what happened today, after all, she was the one who kissed him first.

So she could only pretend she didn’t know anything and swallow the bitter pill.

At night, to avoid embarrassment, Chu Chenyin took the initiative to suggest sleeping with Fu Jianghong.

Fu Jianghong was overjoyed. She hugged her, calling her “sister-in-law” over and over again.

Chu Chenyin smiled and sighed.

Whose younger sister is so clingy?

However, she didn’t mind. On the contrary, she liked it very much.

She had never had any family since she was a child, so she truly cherished the sibling love she had with the three Fu brothers.

She slept soundly that night.

Fu Yanting, on the other hand, couldn’t sleep well all night.

The next morning, Marquis Fu gathered everyone together and proposed to continue their journey.

They were still at least three states and more than ten counties away from Mobei.

To be honest, Chu Chenyin really missed high-speed rail.

If there were high-speed rail, it would probably take only seven or eight hours to get there.

Of course, it would be even better if there were airplanes.

“Father, where are we going next?” Fu Jianghong asked Marquis Fu eagerly.

Marquis Fu took out a map and pointed to the north of Mengru County, “To YouMrs. Chu!”

Chu Chenyin was stunned and overjoyed.

It was good to go to YouMrs. Chu! YouMrs. Chu, like Mengru County, had many mountains, but on the high mountains, there were vast grasslands.

It raised half of the warhorses of the entire Dayong Kingdom!

The horses of the Fu family’s army in Mobei almost all came from here.

Besides horses, there were also vast herds of cattle and sheep.

When Chu Chenyin saw this in the history books, she was also very curious. What kind of place could raise so many good things?

Although those grasslands would become desertified due to drought, it would be good to see them before they disappeared.

Thinking about this, Chu Chenyin calculated the time. There were three days left, and the real disaster was about to begin.

After the family decided to set off for YouMrs. Chu, Chu Chenyin began to pack their luggage with Fu Yanting and the others.

Before leaving, Madam Fu specifically found Qing’er and asked her if she wanted to continue traveling with them.

Qing’er hesitated for a moment and decided to stay with her mother.

Madam Fu didn’t force her, “Okay, you stay with your mother. It’s convenient for you to take care of her.”

However, the next day when they were about to leave, Qing’er brought her mother and followed Madam Fu.

Qing’er sold the Bai family’s house and took the money to settle in Mobei with Madam Fu. Another reason was that she couldn’t bear to leave Madam Fu. They were like sisters, and she wanted to stay by her side to take care of her.

Madam Fu was also very happy. With Qing’er’s mother, it was like having an extra chef in the group.

Qing’er’s mother had a good skill. She could make any dish delicious.

When Chu Chenyin heard that she was going to travel with them, she was overjoyed. At least her stomach wouldn’t be neglected on this journey.

As fate would have it, they had just left when the emperor’s pursuers arrived.

Chu Chenyin couldn’t help but admire Marquis Fu’s quick thinking.

When they reached the border of YouMrs. Chu, it was two days later.

Chu Chenyin sat in the carriage, looked up at the starry night sky, and calculated the time. There were six hours left.

Six hours later, the prosperous capital would turn into a sea of fire.

The emperor and Prime Minister Wan, who had been trying to kill them, would shed their luxurious clothes and flee to different places.

The entire Dayong Kingdom would be reshuffled. Who would survive to the end? Who would be the true emperor who could stand at the highest position?
