A peasant girl traveled through time and space, and she became prosperous

Wen Meijiu didn't know where the grain was to be transported, and the leader of the officers and soldiers in front didn't say either.

They walked slowly, and the carriage didn't need to be driven hard, it moved forward at a leisurely and steady pace.

Wen Meijiu was bored sitting in the car, so he asked the leader of the soldiers walking in front.

"Sir, are we going to the city or the suburbs?"

"In the city, or in the suburbs."

The leading officer regretted his words as soon as he finished speaking, and turned back to Wen Meijiu and said unhappily:

"Why are you asking so many questions? Do you want to know what the county magistrate means?"

In Minhuang County, the county magistrate is the highest official and the local emperor. No one is higher than him.

The leaders of the officers and soldiers believed that no matter how powerful Wen Meijiu's backing was, he could never get past the county magistrate, so there was nothing wrong with them confronting Wen Meijiu in this way.

But the warm wine didn't know the danger and said "Hi" and said:

"There's nothing wrong with asking. If you're embarrassed to ask, I'll just go ask him directly."

She said it very easily, and when she saw the leader of the officers and soldiers looking at him, she blew a clear whistle at him mischievously.

The leader of the officers and soldiers was stunned. As he walked, he kept looking back at her and asked:

"Where on earth are you from?"

Wen Meijiu flicked the whip lightly in the air and said proudly:

"I don't have any background. The county magistrate is very approachable and treats me, a commoner, as a guest of honor."

She was not afraid of the truth being exposed. After completing this big deal, she planned to run away with her family. Even if the county magistrate came to her, what she said was the truth.

Besides, she is now a woman disguised as a man. Even if the county magistrate is as careful as a hair and waits to find out that it was her who did it, it will take a long time.

These days, even if we ask the county magistrate to investigate, he would probably be so busy with other things that he wouldn't have the time and energy to spare.

"Don't tell me these lies. Tell me the truth. Where do you come from?"

The more ambiguous Wen Meijiu's words were, the more confused the officers and soldiers became, and for a moment he even felt guilty.

"Believe it or not, if you don't believe it, why don't you go and ask the county magistrate yourself?"

Sure that he didn't dare to ask, Wen Meijiu spoke even more unscrupulously and laughed out loud.

The leader of the light soldiers was so amused that he moved his mouth twice, and stopped asking questions. He just lowered his head and walked away, and no one knew what he was thinking.

When we reached the fork in the road ahead, one road led directly to the suburbs, with few people on it; the other road also led to the suburbs, but there were many shops on both sides of the road. Due to the economic downturn, there were not many people coming and going on the street, but there were many disaster victims from other places sitting and lying on the roadside.

According to Wen Meijiu's idea, it is more convenient to take the first avenue. Although it is a bit longer, there are no buildings blocking the road, so it is safer overall.

Wen Meijiu was just about to pull the reins to walk towards the main road on the right when the leader of the soldiers suddenly blocked her way and went to another road with shops.

It was almost bumping into the leader of the soldiers. Wen Meijiu quickly grabbed the horse's reins and urged the carriage to the right, and the other carriages behind followed.

Feeling suspicious, Wen Meijiu did not ask the leader of the soldiers.

He was suspicious of her identity and would definitely not tell her the truth even if he asked.

As expected, some of the drivers behind him couldn't help but muttered in a low voice:

"Sir, why don't you take the main road when leaving the city? This road is narrow."

To say it is narrow is relative. There is no problem for two carriages to travel towards each other.

"Drive your carriage away, or I'll cut off your tongue if you keep talking nonsense."

The escorting soldier behind pulled out a knife and threatened the driver fiercely, and the driver stopped talking.

Wen Meijiu understood the driver's concerns. He was not talking about the narrow road. He was probably worried about the victims lying on both sides of the road. They were carrying food on their carts.

Fortunately, these victims seemed to be old, weak, sick and disabled and had little ability to fight. If they met someone strong, the driver's worries would really come true.

As Wen Meijiu thought about this, he couldn't help but glance at the surrounding streets.

The victims lying on the ground watched the grain-carrying carts passing by. Some of them raised their heads slightly, looked at the sacks on the carts, swallowed slightly, and finally lay down weakly with their heads tilted.

Some children who couldn't help themselves saw the grain cart and quickly shook the adults around them, pointed at the sacks on the cart and asked the people around them:

"Mother, what's in there?"

Of course the adults knew that the box was filled with food, and they also saw the soldiers walking on both sides. Even though they were so hungry that they could not breathe, they still lied to the children.

"Earth, for repairing the house."

Whether the child believed it or not, he bit his fingers and lips, stopped talking, and the light in his eyes had disappeared.

Wen Meijiu secretly breathed a sigh of relief, but still did not let his guard down.

She had a bad feeling, and seeing the officers and soldiers leading her in front of her were on high alert, her doubts deepened.

The carriage continued to move forward at a constant speed and arrived at the door of a noodle shop. Suddenly, a man and a woman came out of the shop, pushing and shoving each other as they moved towards the middle of the road.

When soldiers were escorting grain during disaster years and passing through areas with many disaster victims, it was easy for accidents such as grain theft to occur.

"Stop the carriage. I'll go to the front to see what's going on."

The leader of the soldiers did not turn around, but raised his arm as an order to the convoy behind.

The carriage was still moving slowly forward. It was an animal that could not understand what the leader of the soldiers said at all. So it needed the coachman Wen Meijiu to control it.

Wen Meijiu suddenly understood why the leader of the soldiers had told her two of the passwords in reverse order.

Wen Meijiu was a killer in her previous life. She could drive, ride a horse, and fly. Of course, she could tell that the leader of the soldiers was trying to fool her.

She didn't show it at the time, she just felt that the officer leader was dissatisfied and wanted to play a trick on her secretly.

Now it seems that things are not that simple, everything is premeditated. Although she cannot understand the whole picture now, she can already see most of it.

Whether to call the command in reverse or drive normally, Wen Meijiu couldn't make a decision so quickly, she needed to wait and see.

But the carriage continued to move forward without the driver's command. It was about to hit the leader of the soldiers. Wen Meijiu looked back.

Several soldiers at the back trotted towards her, leaving the convoy unattended.

These carriages were forcibly requisitioned, and who wouldn't want to run away at this moment?

In just a short while, the driver at the back had fallen far behind.

It can be seen that he stopped the carriage and was about to turn back and escape with the food.

According to common sense, this is a good solution for the drivers facing their current predicament.

But you can’t think about it too much, it’s terrifying if you think about it too much.

For example, the disaster victims in the surrounding areas rushed forward, snatched all the food from the lone carriage, and then fled in all directions, leaving the driver alone at the scene.

This was not the worst. The worst was that when the rickshaw driver was the only one left behind, many officers and soldiers suddenly came from behind and arrested the rickshaw driver in an instant. His family was also implicated. The women were sold and the men were sent to the army or forced labor.
