Carrying a Lucky Charm, I Thrive with My Husband on the Road to Exile

Bai Suihe thought to herself, I’m familiar with this act.

It seems this episode wasn’t in the book, perhaps it wasn’t important, or her arrival had already changed everything beyond recognition.

However, she had a witness beside her, so she cast a curious glance at him.

Seeing his wife’s gossiping eyes, Gu Kaiyuan was truly clueless this time, "I don’t know either, maybe something unexpected happened."

The itinerary hadn’t changed, but in the previous life, this scene didn’t happen.

"I wonder when it’ll end. How about we go watch the excitement?" Bai Suihe was truly tired of staying in the carriage, and a chance to watch a classic scene should be seized positively.

She wondered how beautiful this enchanting woman was, and whom she was targeting on this trip.

Oh, wasn’t it said that she was accompanied by two little girls? That broadens the range of consideration.

Before Gu Kaiyuan could agree, Bai Suihe had already stood up and walked forward, Gu Kaiyuan hurriedly followed, "Walk a bit slower..." 𝙛𝓻𝒆𝒆𝒘𝙚𝓫𝙣𝙤𝒗𝙚𝓵.𝙘𝙤𝙢

Dongmei quickly grabbed a cloak and caught up, "Miss, put on more clothes."

Fortunately, the snow in front had already been cleared by those ahead, and the ox cart had paved a path, though it looked dirty and stepping on it gave a slight mental burden.

Bai Suihe, wearing leather boots and supported by Gu Kaiyuan, moved quickly,

Yun Ni also hurriedly called his brothers to follow, as no one knew if there was a trap ahead.

Liu Pingkang looked gloomy; after a good meal and a good night’s sleep yesterday, his mood was quite pleasant today. But less than half a day later, someone came seeking death.

"Who are you? Do you know you’re hindering us from carrying out our duty? Move out of the way quickly."

"Sir, Ms. Xu had no choice but to come here because after bearing two daughters, last night her husband brought a widowed woman who is pregnant, and drove us out in the night.

We sought help from nearby villages, but none were willing to take us in. We beg you, sir, to have mercy and take us along."

"We’re escorting prisoners. What do we do with you tagging along?" Even if the woman wept like a pear blossom in the rain, and had some beauty, Liu Pingkang wasn’t moved.

He dared not keep people of unknown origins in the group.

"Sir, my mother’s family is in Lingnan, and we three would like to go there, but with just us, we can’t make it.

We beg for your mercy, to let us follow the group. We three will surely not cause you any trouble.

We can help with washing and cooking, just give us a chance to survive."

After saying this, the woman prostrated herself in the snow, and the two daughters behind her started to whimper.

Liu Pingkang, seeing them kneeling in the road, wanted someone to drag them away.

But his brothers behind him all shook their heads, especially Guo Baoshu, who sympathized, "Boss, they seem pitiful too, maybe we could just take them along."

Liu Pingkang said, "Now I should have let you marry into the family earlier, with your kindness, you could reform those bandits and possibly restore peace here."

Guo Baoshu hadn’t yet understood what he meant when the brothers around him laughed.

One brother beside him, seeing his bewilderment, patted his shoulder and laughed, "Didn’t know you’re a living Buddha among us; being with us really wrongs you."

The three weak women in front were crying, while the group here laughed. Some people in the exile team couldn’t stand it and mockingly said, "You have no sympathy at all.

Those people are already so miserable, and you’re here laughing at them."

"Anyway, they’re just traveling with us, you don’t have to serve them, why can’t they join the group?"

"..."

Liu Pingkang heard these words but said nothing. The sudden appearance of these three women was obviously with ulterior motives.

If he were to keep such people in the group, that would be foolish.

"I don’t care how miserable you are, we won’t take you in. You can wait by the roadside for other teams. Now move off the road immediately."

Bai Suihe and the others arrived just in time to see the escort pointing a knife at the three kneeling women.

Bai Suihe said, "Indeed, the drama didn’t lie. To look demure, one must wear mourning. If there’s no ulterior motive, I’ll give you a hundred taels."

Gu Kaiyuan, "..."

Bai Suihe, realizing she misspoke, laughed dryly, "I mean I’ll give you a hundred taels."

"Their intentions are too obvious. How can someone be so foolish as to fall for it?" With such poor acting, Bai Suihe couldn’t understand what the mastermind was thinking.

"Food and lust, basic instincts. Look, those men are already interested." Gu Kaiyuan pointed at the indignant men who weren’t considering their current circumstances, still thinking of protecting flowers.

Bai Suihe looked and it was true, she quickly stood on tiptoe, trying to see how those three women looked, but the confronting escorts perfectly blocked them.

Bai Suihe wanted to shout for them to move aside so she wouldn’t miss the beauties.

"What’s so great to see?" Gu Kaiyuan couldn’t understand.

"It’s a beauty, aren’t you curious why everyone has a look of pity?

The beauty ahead might be so pitiful, frail, waiting for you to guard."

Gu Kaiyuan felt a sense of crisis rising, quickly stating his position, "No matter how pretty she is, it has nothing to do with us.

It’s so cold outside, you shouldn’t suffer for them."

"You don’t get it," Bai Suihe gradually let herself go and slowly resumed her nature, knowing that the enthusiasm of flower-cultivators for spectacles couldn’t be halted even by artillery fire.

Let alone such a classic scene, she even secretly glanced at Gu Kaiyuan, wondering if he was the main character this time?

However, when she saw that middle-aged woman with remaining charm through the gap, she dismissed the thought.

Initially feeling chilly, Gu Kaiyuan felt fine after turning around, cursing this damn weather, not knowing when it would clear up.

"Sir, please give us mother and daughter a way to survive," Xu Shuanghong shivered on the snow, eliciting more sympathy.

Even those escorts standing ahead felt troubled by such weak women, not knowing how to act, seeking help from Liu Pingkang.

"Sir, maybe we should let them follow."

"Yes, having them kneeling isn’t a solution. We can’t move; they might get sick from the cold."

Bai Suihe quietly shifted position, finally seeing the three kneeling women and their daughters.

The two girls behind the woman were pretty, but why so alluring? Clearly not raised by a decent family.

"These three are not simple," Bai Suihe whispered to Gu Kaiyuan.
