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

Outside, Zhuang Datou and the others are responsible for driving the cart, so Bai Suihe and Gu Kaiyuan finally don’t have to measure the land with their own feet.

The two maids talked about many things, including how all the maids who accompanied the dowry were redeemed by Mrs. Bai.

Some people left with their selling contracts, while others continued to work under Mrs. Bai’s estate.

"Previously, Taohua and Li Hua were competing with us," Chunxiang said proudly, "But Nanny Wu still values us more."

"You are all good, now dragged down by me, the young lady." Bai Suihe felt that since coming to this ancient time, she had gained a lot.

"It’s all voluntary from us," Dongmei and the others said with a smile, "Without the young miss, we wouldn’t have the good days we have now. Moreover, following the young miss may bring us great fortune, hoping the young miss won’t dislike us in the future."

"By the way, Master, when you arranged for Lin Hua and Lin Wei, they knew we were coming, and they went ahead to scout."

"You all have been thoughtful." Gu Kaiyuan asked a few more questions and then stared out in a daze.

The hearts of the Gu Family are indeed hard; they’ve been traveling for so long, but no one has ever looked back.

But this might be good; they were the ones who were unkind first.

On the Gu Family’s ox cart

"Mom, aren’t you really going to care about Third Aunt and the others?" Gu Antong leaned on Liu Yun’s shoulder, finally feeling alive after boarding the ox cart today.

"How can I manage? I can’t be in charge of the family." Liu Yun closed her eyes for some rest, "Besides, it was agreed upon by your grandfather and grandmother, and we, as juniors, naturally have to listen."

As long as it doesn’t harm the interests of their main family, they can mess around as they please.

Gu Antong asked, "Isn’t Second Uncle going too far? After all, Third Aunt contributed half the silver?

If they can exclude Third Aunt now, could they treat us the same way next?"

Gu Antong had been in charge before and understood Gu Kaichen’s behavior; she did not approve of the second branch.

Previously, she didn’t speak up because the third branch was in front, but if the third branch were really excluded, and if they clashed with the second branch, given Grandma’s character, she’d definitely choose the second branch.

"Don’t worry, as long as your grandfather is here, nothing like that will happen in our family." Liu Yun knew what Gu Antong was worried about; previously in the inner chambers, many things couldn’t circumvent Xu Huizhen, and they, mother and daughter, had to be careful.

But now they’ve been exiled, the whole family is together, and it’s no longer under the control of the old lady.

Besides, once they arrive at the exile land, survival becomes a major challenge, and if there’s a split, it depends on whether the old man agrees.

Xu Yulan didn’t bother with the whispers of the mother and daughter behind her, happily holding her son and humming a tune.

So what if her maternal family is poor? What should be hers, her aunt will naturally help her fight for.

"Yu Lan, massage my foot," Xu Huizhen extended her foot, placing it right in front of Xu Yulan.

Although she rested well last night, her feet were still sore and tired.

"Aunt, I’m still holding Wei Er." Xu Yulan’s expression changed, as she just started, she was already being given tasks.

Previously, with Nanny Zhou and the others serving her, she only needed to speak, but when it comes to doing it herself, she truly wasn’t willing.

"Let your brother-in-law hold Wei Er, why? Are you unwilling?"

"Of course not." Xu Yulan didn’t dare to refuse; otherwise, next time, she wouldn’t be the one sitting on the ox cart.

Putting the child aside, "Sister-in-law, can you hold him for me?"

Liu Yun hadn’t responded yet, and a large chubby boy was thrust into her arms, an eight-year-old child, who shouldn’t be sharing a seat with the opposite gender, and the second sister-in-law was quite thoughtless, making her, the elder sister-in-law, hold him. 𝚏𝕣𝐞𝗲𝐰𝕖𝐛𝐧𝕠𝕧𝚎𝚕.𝐜𝚘𝗺

"This is not appropriate," thinking of her numb legs and having to hold such a big child, Liu Yun instinctively tried to push the child forward.

"Mother said it, I have to help mother massage her feet, or sister-in-law you help mother do it?"

Liu Yun paused, since being imprisoned to now, several days have passed, even though they had a brief rest at the post station yesterday, the smell on these shoes was still strong, even she disliked herself, let alone Xu Huizhen.

However, she didn’t hold the child on her lap but made space with her own two children; it was a bit cramped, but she didn’t have to suffer anymore.

Xu Yulan felt satisfied; indeed, squeezing a bit, her son’s space was freed up, and she didn’t have to hold him anymore.

Sure enough, Aunt was on her side, quickly solving her biggest problem?

Although the foot smell was strong, it seemed manageable; at worst, she’d turn her head away and breathe in the outside dust.

Gu Kaiping and Gu Kaichen had never driven an ox cart, so they could only lead the ox by the rope upfront.

"Brother, are we really not caring about the third brother and them?"

Gu Kaiping said, "You’re asking this now; isn’t it too late?

Why don’t you let second sister-in-law down? Give the space to third sister-in-law."

Though he looked down on Gu Kaiyuan, he was even more disdainful of Gu Kaichen’s behavior.

Not a copper coin spent, relying on mother to back him up, blatantly taking advantage.

He also began to be wary in his heart; it had just begun, and the means were already so despicable; when their interests conflicted, would he also calculate against his elder brother?

"Brother, I’m out of options," Gu Kaichen smiled bitterly, "Yu Lan is spoiled by mother at home, and with mother’s backing, she doesn’t listen to me."

"Don’t shirk responsibility, don’t think I didn’t see you, early in the morning, urging second sister-in-law down," Gu Kaiping decided to warn Gu Kaichen, letting him know his actions had long been seen through.

"It’s a misunderstanding, brother, I was urging the kid’s mother to get down quickly, not to delay everyone’s time.

But if third sister-in-law truly can’t hold on, our family can’t possibly ignore it."

Gu Kaiping said, "Of course, we should care, just let sister-in-law give up her spot."

"Look at how you’re saying, we’re a family, we have to respect elders and care for juniors.

Your family takes up three spots, see if you can make room for third sister-in-law?"

"Gu Kaichen, brother, I’ve only known you properly today," Gu Kaiping raised his thumb at him, "If something happens to third sister-in-law, how do you think third brother will react?"

Thinking of Gu Kaiyuan’s robust stature, Gu Kaichen felt some trepidation, otherwise he wouldn’t be probing Gu Kaiping here, "Of course, he would resent us, after all, on the cart your family occupies the most space.

Actually, Anliang is also grown up, giving up his space for aunt would be commendable, and everyone would praise his filial piety."

"Tell that to father, Anliang is the family’s eldest grandson, his matters aren’t something I, as a father, can intervene in, nor can I decide."

After Gu Kaiping finished speaking, he turned his head, true to form...
