The Ordinary Man's Guide to Fast Travel

Chapter 175 Exile 2

After Chao Yao collected the things in the kitchen, he went to other rooms and took away all the money one by one.

I won’t take away the others, otherwise it would seem too deliberate.

The last room was the room of her mother, Yang Tiaotiao (tiáo), in this life. Chao Yuebai had just finished eating a candied haws. He came to his mother and acted coquettishly, wanting to eat another string.

Since Chaoyao was not found, I could only come to Yang Tiaotiao for help.

"Mom, have you seen my eldest sister? The candied haws she bought are really delicious. Can't you ask her to buy me a few more?"

Chao Yuebai pulled Yang Tiaotiao's sleeve and shook it. Yang Tiaotiao was checking the accounts. It was the end of the month and he had to check all the accounts of all the shops and pay the workers.

"Go find your sister. Mother is busy."

"I can't find her!"

"What do you want from me?"

Chao Yao walked in, Chao Yuebai's eyes lit up and he immediately trotted over.

"Sister, I want to eat some candied haws too. Your candied haws are so delicious!"

Chao Yao squatted down and tapped Chao Yuebai's nose.

"Tanghulu is too sweet. Eating too much will cause toothache. Eat less. I'll buy you more later. This is not difficult to make. I'll make it for you once I learn how to make it."

"Then you must keep your word, don't break it!"

The little fat boy put his hands on his skinny waist, Chao Yuebai, his face was stern and he looked serious.

"I know, I know. Go to your own yard first. I want to talk to mom for a while."

"Why do you keep chasing me away?"

"You are still young. Sister wants to have a private talk with mother. You are the man of our family. How can you eavesdrop?"

Chao Yuebai pouted, looking reluctant.

"Okay, okay, Daddy will be back soon, I'll go wait for him at the door."

After Chao Yao and Chao Yuebai left, they immediately closed all the doors. When Yang Tiaotiao saw her daughter's action, she realized something was wrong.

"Yaoyao, what happened that made you so nervous?"

"mother."

Chao Yao lowered his voice and said, "When I went to buy candied haws this morning, I heard someone on the side of the road talking about the Chaoguo Mansion."

"Duke Chao's Mansion? What does that have to do with us?"

Yang Tiaotiao was a little confused. Although their Chao family was related to the Chaoguo Mansion, they were separated by many branches.

"They're going to rebel!"

When Yang Tiaotiao heard this, she was so scared that she stood up.

"Yaoyao, don't say that, or you'll be beheaded!"

"I really didn't hear it wrongly. Maybe they have already arrived at the palace now."

"This matter is too serious. If they really do it, our family will be implicated."

Yang Tiaotiao was a little anxious. She paced back and forth in the room.

"Go and call your father back now, and let's escape!"

After saying this, she slapped her head again.

"No, we can't run away. If we run away, my family, including your father's relatives, will all suffer. The emperor won't care whether we know the news or not. If we take any action at this time, we will be treated as if we have the news."

Chao Yao also knew that her mother had these concerns, and in fact she was inclined to exile.

To others, the North is a bitter and cold place, but to her, it is a big granary.

Although it is winter for five months a year, the black soil there is absolutely suitable for growing crops.

Even if their family stayed in this place, they would never have a chance to make a breakthrough. But if they went to the north, it would be a completely new world.

"Mom, if they really do this, what will happen to us?"

"With our family's current situation, the worst that can happen is exile. But my daughter, exile, that's exile! Our family can't even survive that!"

"Don't worry, mother. Wait until father comes back. He will surely be able to think of a solution."

"Yes, call your father back immediately!"

Yang Tiaotiao walked out quickly and asked a servant to go find Chao Tiancai.

Chao Tiancai usually has a good relationship with his superiors, so he didn't say anything when he left early this time.

After all, it was an emergency at home, and he said something happened to his wife.

"Let's go, let's go back and see your wife. Your wife is the most important."

He had just written to the top of the mountain the next day, then ran all the way back home following the servant.

As soon as he arrived home, Yang Tiaotiao pulled him into the room and told him what Chao Yao had heard the news.

"My dear girl, are you telling the truth?"

"Absolutely true!"

"So what are you waiting for? Hurry up and stuff all the valuables in your house into the places where they can be stuffed!"

Chao Tiancai became anxious and started looking for money in Yang Tiaotiao's room.

"Dad, Mom, don't worry, I found a good thing at home. Does it look familiar to you?"

Chao Yao took out a space ring. She had made the ring look like the jewelry that Yang Tiaotiao usually used, so that no one could tell there was anything wrong with it.

"Isn't this the jade ring your mother wears on her hand every day?"

"Dad, Mom, there are two of these jade rings, and Mom gave me one of them. Today, I went home after hearing the news, and I accidentally stabbed my finger with a needle. After the jade ring absorbed my blood, I discovered a space."

"Space? What is that?"

Chao Tiancai and Yang Tiaotiao asked in unison.

"It's something like our bag, you can put things in it, and it seems to keep them fresh."

Chao Yao gave them a demonstration. She put the bed from Yang Tiaotiao's room into the space, and then took it out again in the same way.

The two were shocked when they saw this scene, and then their faces were filled with ecstasy.

Chao Tiancai immediately took the other jade ring from Chao Yao's hand and handed it to Yang Tiao Tiao.

"My dear, please take out your needle and draw some blood on this jade ring. If there is really a space, I won't worry about you if something really happens!"

Chao Yao took out this space just because of this problem. The reason why Chao Tian could go crazy because of his wife and children was because they meant a lot to him in his heart.

As expected, upon encountering such a rare treasure, his first reaction was to give it to his wife.

Yang Tiaotiao was used to her husband being so nice to her, so she just took it.

She picked up a needle and poked it into her fingertip, and the jade ring quickly absorbed all the blood.

After a moment, her eyes were filled with ecstasy.

"Husband, it really is! I feel like I really have a space!"

She never got tired of putting things from the house in and taking them out over and over again.

"Alright, alright, my lady, we have to hurry up and pack all the other things in the house. If what we are doing to the Duke's Mansion is true, we will have a long way to go."

"Okay, I'll get it installed right away."

Chao Yao then said to them, "Except for mother's room, I have packed up all the valuables in other rooms."
