Peasant Woman's Decreed Life as a Wife

Chapter 948: Hiding

Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

“There was a commotion outside. This servant heard the noise and got up. I don’t know what’s going on yet. I only saw a fire in the distance.”

“What should we do?”

“Quickly gather all the guards in the courtyard. Everyone, take a suitable weapon.”

Ye Muyu quickly put on her clothes.

She then placed the silver notes into the inner lining of her inner clothes. They were also placed in several other places.

She did not even forget to put two silver notes in his shoes.

She put away all her jewelry and wore the ordinary clothes she wore yesterday.

When Ye Muyu came out, she saw the guards and coachmen looking out of the yard cautiously.

Han Zhuang had already gone out to inquire about the news when he heard the voice in the city.

“Madam, it’s bad. The city gate is broken and there’s a sudden fight. Many people are rushing toward the Marquis’ residence. Those people’s identities are unknown, but they are holding knives and killing and looting.”

“People from the Luo Kingdom.” Ye Muyu did not hesitate anymore. She did not expect that the Luo people she met yesterday were secret sentries who sent messages.

She did not know which gap the other party came from but she had to protect herself and wait for the Shen family’s army to come.

“Change into ordinary clothes, block the door, and pretend to leave from the backyard.”

“Hide in the cellar and mess up the house.”

Ye Muyu heard more and more looting sounds outside, and more and more fires. It was obvious that the other party was setting fire. The more people robbed, the more chaotic it would be.

Going out at this time would only be courting death.

Ye Muyu made her decision decisively.

Han Zhuang quickly followed the instructions and quickly disguised himself.

Soon, the group of people hid in the cellar.

The cellar was dark.

Su Mei hugged Ye Muyu’s arm tightly and did not dare to make a sound. Her face was filled with fear.

Not long after, there was a sound outside.

Someone started knocking on the door.

With a bang, the door that was originally blocked was broken.

Han Zhuang subconsciously tightened his grip on the stick in his hand.

Following that, a group of people barged into the courtyard. They spoke in a dialect that Ye Muyu and the others could not understand. On the contrary, they were even more certain that they were from the Luo Kingdom.

In the courtyard above…

The Luo Kingdom soldiers robbed the house of all the valuables, and then they noticed that the back door had been opened.

A group of soldiers went out.

She heard the voice from above become softer and then slowly disappear.

Han Zhuang heaved a sigh of relief and whispered, “Madam, I’ll go up and take a look.”

Ye Mu Yu raised his hand to stop him. ” No need. We will wait for the Shen family’s army to come and chase these Luo Kingdom’s people away.”

“We don’t have to rush out.” Ye Muyu sat on the cotton mat, not worried at all. She was resting comfortably.

Seeing Han Zhuang hesitate, Ye Muyu sighed. “The Marquis’ residence should have guards, right? However, the guards didn’t come out to stop them. Something must have happened.”

“Not only that, Young General Shen and the others definitely have troops in Luoping County, but why was the city still broken through? There must be some other reason.”

“If we go out now, we’ll be courting death. Let’s save our lives first. Everything else is secondary.”

Han Zhuang gasped when he heard that. He knew that Ye Muyu was right, so he sat down and waited.

They waited for an entire night.

When the sun rose, the city quieted down.

Ye Muyu shared some pastries among everyone.

It was afternoon again.

Han Zhuang only dared to go out when there was really no food left.
