Reborn as an Ugly Wife in the Countryside Chapter 1121 - 1123: Routine Inspection

Just like that, with several reassurances from Xue Zhiyi and An’an, Old An agreed to An’an’s request to learn dicine.

And in the An Family, in front of everyone, An’an knelt down and served tea, completing the apprenticeship ceremony.

Old An repeatedly instructed, "An’an, rember, from now on, Xiaoxue is your master. A day as a master, a lifeti as a father. He will be your elder. When you go with him, don’t cause him any trouble, understand?"

"Understood, Dad."

The matter was finally resolved satisfactorily. The next day, Xiaoxiao and the others set off. Xue Zhiyi was to take An’an to Lin County to fulfill a promise. Yang Ming and Xiaoxiao had to pass through Lin County on their way back to Yang Family Village, so their next destination was Lin County.

The journey to Lin County required passing through many villages and towns, taking several days of travel.

The journey was not that smooth because just after passing the first town, they were stopped by soldiers, "Halt!"

Yang Ming, who was driving the carriage, saw that they were stopped and had to stop the carriage, "Officer, what’s the matter?"

"Routine inspection!" the officer said and walked towards the carriage door, "Open up."

Xue Zhiyi in the carriage opened the door. The officer glanced inside and saw the child in Xiaoxiao’s arms, then said, "Expose the child’s feet for us to see."

Upon hearing this, everyone realized what the officer was doing there.

Turns out, they were searching for a child with six toes.

Xiaoxiao initially found it strange. If they were looking for soone, wouldn’t a sudden raid be better? Why notify first? Apparently, it was to throw people off balance and then intercept them. But whatever the governnt office did, they could not find the child, because Little Liufu now had toes like a normal person.

Xiaoxiao calmly exposed both of the child’s feet for the officer to see.

The officer glanced briefly and saw Little Liufu’s scarred toes, "What’s with this child’s feet?"

Xiaoxiao pretended to cry sadly, "Officer, it’s just us careless parents accidentally cut a big gash on the child’s foot, and it’s just now healed."

The officer glanced at Little Liufu’s injured foot. It looked normal, indeed like a cut, so he dropped it, waved his hand, and said, "Alright, move along."

Upon hearing they could go, Xue Zhiyi closed the carriage door, Yang Ming climbed back on the carriage, and they continued forward.

In the carriage, Xiaoxiao imdiately stopped her crying tone and instead wore a smile.

Xue Zhiyi’s lips twitched. This girl was simply too clever, calm in the face of danger. After spending so much ti with her, he realized how formidable she was.

However, this incident also made Xue Zhiyi more alert. It had been a hundred days since the child’s birth. Why were they still searching for the child? Was it that they didn’t know the child was supposedly gone or did they want to confirm whether the child was alive or dead?

But regardless, the child’s identity must remain a secret to survive. Considering how smart Yang Ming and Xiaoxiao were, they probably wouldn’t speak carelessly. In this, he felt quite assured.

They thought a routine check once would be enough, but unexpectedly, they were checked whenever entering or leaving a town, and when they entered Lin County as well.

All along the way, Little Liufu was inspected many tis. But due to Little Liufu’s normal-looking toes, they luckily passed through each ti.

This made everyone relax, knowing Little Liufu would never be discovered.

After several days of traveling, they finally arrived at the Joy Grand Theater in Lin County.
