Chapter 748 Hiding

  The guys came out and stayed close to the shadows on the street, avoiding the Jin army roaming the street. They went round and round to the back door of the satin shop. Da Ya climbed over the wall and went in to open the door, and everyone filed in.

  Not long after, Mrs. Wu and the others also arrived. After waiting for a while, Mrs. Chen also came with her two children.

   With all the members here, Gu Yunjiao let out a long sigh of relief.

The door to the    satin shop was left open, but the door to the backyard was closed.

   Everyone hurriedly cleaned up a little more, and then put on the bed and went to bed.

   Several guards take turns to keep vigil at night.

   The next day, Ayun went out to inquire and came back, "Fortunately, we left in time, the Jin army really went in and searched the house over there, and everything inside was messed up."

  Chen chanted the Buddha silently.

   Everyone hid in the satin shop for more than half a month.

   Only a few guards and Da Ya took turns to go out to inquire about news. Sometimes Gu Yunjiao sent Mrs. Tian to the street to see if she could get some green vegetables to eat.

   Mrs. Tian went out several times, but all came back empty-handed, "There are no grocery shopping on the street."

  Fortunately, there are some pickles that I brought from Gu's family before, save some, and everyone can eat a little salt in their mouths every day.

  Gu Yunjiao would occasionally take some beef jerky out of her carry-on bag and distribute it to several guards and Da Ya. They had the hardest work every day. They had to inquire about news and watch the night, so they had to eat some meat.

  Sometimes she will also give some to the wet nurse. Ruru also needs to eat milk, and the wet nurse also needs to eat some nutrition.

  The rest, everyone did not eat.

   Even Rokuro, who has always been the most greedy, is sensible. When Gu Yunjiao gave beef jerky to the guards, he turned his head away without looking at it.

  Gu Yunjiao was also ruthless and didn't give Liulang, Xiaochuan and Sanya a piece of meat, mainly because she didn't know when these days would pass, and she had to keep something to save her life.

   That night, Daya came back from inquiring about the news: "I heard today that officials above the third rank in the capital, along with their families, were all taken away by the Jin army, and they were taken to Huining with the royal family members."

   Mrs. Wu frowned, "What about the Emperor Taishang and the Emperor?"

  Da Ya said: "Let's go before them."

   Mrs. Wu said bitterly: "Two idiots, they deserve it!" After saying this, she suddenly felt sad, at this point, what's the use of scolding them?

   She thought for a while, "So, the Jin army is about to withdraw?"

   shook his head, "I overheard, I heard that the Jin army will keep some people stationed in the capital, and the rest will be withdrawn."

   "By the way, they also plan to change Dingjing to Dingzhou."

   Mrs. Wu couldn't help but said: "I can go to him! What the hell! Dingjing belongs to us, what did they change!"

   Ruru in her arms was startled and looked up at Madam Wu in confusion, babbling something in her mouth, Madam Wu patted her, "It's okay, you are playing with you, mother is not scolding you."

  Daya continued: "Now the Jin army has taken the fish scale book and searched for craftsmen around the city, intending to bring them all to Jin."

   "I heard that some people will be relocated. Because the population of Jin is small, many fertile fields are uncultivated."

  Gu Yunjiao said: "When the army leaves, the guards in the city should be a little looser. Then we will find a way to get out of the city, and you will be in Xiangcheng, so let's go to Xiangcheng."

   Mrs. Wu nodded, "You haven't heard from your father yet. Alas, it's all my fault. I shouldn't have said anything about killing the Emperor Taishang. Zhongxing was worried about my recklessness, so he went by himself."

   Gu Yunjiao said: "Father should be fine, mother need not worry."
