Quick transmigration, she doesn't love anyone!

Chapter 159 Transmigration into Stepmother Literature × SimpletonTyrantGuard (20)

There's no going back. The best outcome is for us to live peacefully from now on.

Yun Qiao sighed and embarked on their journey to freedom with the God of Wealth.

At one of their lodgings, the God of Wealth's men moved with practiced ease, asking, "What kind of image do you want this time?"

Yun Qiao hesitated for a moment, then said, "Let's dress up as an old woman and call each other mother and son."

The image of a young woman can indeed present many inconveniences.

The God of Wealth's subordinate paused for a moment, then nodded in agreement.

"You don't seem to like walking outside as a man?"

She disguised herself as an ugly woman or a beggar along the way, but never thought of showing herself as a man.

Yun Qiao frowned and thought about it; it really was true.

“This place is strange, I don’t like it. When I was in the Prince’s mansion, I was about to open a clinic. The steward advised me to change my appearance and present myself as a man. Later, when I went to buy guards, the intermediary also suggested that I send a man who could manage the household. The patients in the clinic also whispered that I was showing my face in public, but I have a clear conscience, so why should I hide it?”

The God of Wealth paused for a moment, then said, “Indeed, no woman in our dynasty acts as you do.”

Yun Qiao asked in confusion, "Yes, there are quite a few. That slave trader was an old woman."

Even the God of Wealth couldn't explain it; he had never considered such things.

Yun Qiao didn't argue. "It's okay. I'm not going to listen to them anyway. Besides, the person who was cured later gave me a basket of eggs to thank me. They're the ones who should be ashamed."

Moreover, she treated and saved many people along the way, from ripping off landlords to helping farmers deliver pigs, treating headaches, fevers, backaches, and other ailments within her capabilities.

The outside world was chaotic, but those in the capital didn't realize it. Only the palace was lifeless and filled with trepidation. But once outside the capital, Yun Qiao clearly realized how riddled with problems the country was.

Along the way, they traveled south against the flow of refugees many times, witnessing countless hardships.

However, she didn't suffer much hardship. On the one hand, having a skill meant she could make a living anywhere, and on the other hand, the God of Wealth was truly amazing.

He had been planning this escape for who knows how long, and he had a way out for almost every place he stayed.

No one knows how many different faces he had accumulated, or how many places he had hidden his money. Every time he arrived at a new place, he would change his identity, then take the money back to smooth things over and prepare for his smooth arrival at the next place.

With him planning their escape and Yun Qiao occasionally earning a little money to improve their lives, even while on the run, the two of them managed to live quite well.

"You really don't want to go back?"

After hesitating for a long time, the God of Wealth finally asked the question.

The reason was simple: not long after they fled, they heard that the King of Yue had rebelled.

Now that the capital is under the control of Prince Le, Caishen saw the news and figured it out. He realized that the power behind Yue Shan was Prince Le, and he understood why Yun Qiao wasn't worried about the silly prince when she left.

Given the current situation, it's clear that Yun Qiao would be better off going back. She has done the new emperor a favor, and Yue Shan is her lover.

Fleeing is his path, not Yun Qiao's.

Yun Qiao didn't answer, and after a long while asked in confusion:

"What did you do before?"

The God of Wealth remained silent for a long time, then said, "Sinful slave."

He was a slave to sin in his childhood. Later, he struggled and learned a lot of unorthodox methods. He put on a mask and appeared as the God of Wealth, and had a legitimate identity, but he still lived under the control of others.

He will probably never be able to show his true face as a slave.

Yun Qiao was intrigued after hearing this, "So you learned all of this on your own? That's amazing!"

After finishing his task, the God of Wealth took the mirror and showed it to Yun Qiao.

Seeing that she could always show a look of novelty and shock no matter how many times, I felt inexplicably good.

He had originally planned to settle down in a small border town, change his identity, and live a seemingly free and easy life, but now he was uncertain.

The God of Wealth never makes true friends. He has many friends, but they are all just for financial transactions. They use each other and then discard each other, leaving a way out when he escapes. After all, he has many faces.

I've encountered many dangerous situations over the years, and each time I've escaped death by relying on my own abilities. The only time I almost died was when I asked Yun Qiao for help.

He originally thought he was really going to die that time, but then he inexplicably remembered the only subordinate he had ever lent money to.

Logically speaking, going to someone who had lent him money when he was on the verge of death would only make things worse, but perhaps it was intuition, or perhaps it was a gamble, that led him to Yun Qiao.

He was saved in a strange but reasonable way, and he also gained someone he could trust.

Although she's a bit simple-minded, it's hard not to trust her once you get to know her.

So he even revealed to her his defection plan, which he had been meticulously planning for years and could not afford to fail.

Bringing her along is risky; his plans of so many years might fall apart, but he wants to bring her along.

Looking down at Yun Qiao, he thought that perhaps he needed to change his plans.

......

Three months later, Yun Qiao arrived at her new residence. She was quite puzzled. Her previous places of residence were all temporary, but why was she buying a house this time? Real estate is not easy to sell.

"We're not going to the border?"

They had only been wandering for less than half a year, and she knew their final destination. If they continued to run, it would take another six months.

The God of Wealth nodded, "The borderlands are harsh and cold, but this place is prosperous. It's not a bad idea to settle down here."

Perhaps only by going to the border could he be free from fear and completely at ease, but he didn't plan to take Yun Qiao to such a place. As for him, if she didn't want to go, he didn't want to go either.

Yun Qiao didn't understand these things. Her journey and new identity were all arranged by the God of Wealth, which seemed to fall into some gray areas.

She's actually doing alright. Along the way, she's witnessed many different customs and cultures of the world, and has gradually come to understand and integrate into many of them. Continuing on her journey would be very interesting, but she needs to settle down to live the life she wants.

"You take care of the identity matter, I'll go and check out the location of the clinic, and you can also invest in it after it opens, but you'll have to help out, and I'll pay you extra."

Yun Qiao was in high spirits and had already made plans.

The God of Wealth's previous methods of making money were not entirely legal or compliant. Now that they want to start a new life, they naturally need to earn clean money to live a stable life.

Seeing that she was happy, the God of Wealth was also in a good mood and nodded in agreement.

Finally able to rest from her hectic escape life, Yun Qiao also relaxed a lot.

I was so happy that evening that I treated the God of Wealth to dinner and had the restaurant staff deliver the food directly to my new home.

Looking at the arranged dishes, they happily waited for the God of Wealth to return.

After a while, I heard a sound at the door. I looked up and saw a completely unfamiliar face.

"Are you going to change to this look from now on?"

Having spent every day together and seen him change so many times, Yun Qiao was able to recognize him.

The God of Wealth was interrupted by her sudden question. She seemed to have gotten used to his changes and showed no other expression except curiosity, so much so that he didn't know if she was satisfied with this appearance.

Enter the room naturally.

"This is what I originally looked like, and I will show people my true face from now on."
