Travel through troubled times and escape famine with the system

After breakfast, Widow Zhou left.

Lu You asked Lu Ming to call Uncle Li's donkey cart, and followed Zuo Yunfeng into the city again.

Logically speaking, since Lu You was "injured", he should have been accompanied by someone when he went into the city for treatment. However, Lu You asked Lu Yi to cover for him and left both of them at home.

After all, her injuries had healed under the effect of Asan Dali Pills, and now there was not even a scar on her back.

If I really let Lu Ming and the other two follow me, I would have to rack my brains to act in the clinic.

It was at this time that Lu You discovered that Lu Yi had guessed that she was not the original Lu You, which didn't seem to be a bad thing.

Just like now, even if his behavior is abnormal, Lu Yi can still help and cover up for him.

The donkey cart swayed as it moved along the mountain road.

In the car, besides Lu You, Zuo Yunfeng and the driver Uncle Li, there was also a lame old man: Sun Mantang.

Sun Mantang is the head of Heyuan Village. When Lu You discovered Hu Laojiu, he reported the matter to him and asked him to report it to the county government.

"So... there are more soldiers and bandits than just these?" As Sun Mantang said this, he clenched his cane tightly with both hands.

Sun Mantang was a military man in his early years. He traveled all over the country and made military achievements. However, he returned home because he was injured and was elected as the head of the village.

Since he had been a soldier himself, he naturally knew how terrifying bandits were.

Facing this old soldier who had shed blood for the Wu State, Zuo Yunfeng's eyes were full of respect.

"According to what the leading soldier and bandit said before he died, it is indeed true!"

It turned out that when Zuo Yunfeng killed the soldiers and bandits, he interrogated the one-eyed leader and got the news that there were more than one group of soldiers and bandits.

According to Duyan, they were border troops stationed in Ningguan County, Xijiang Prefecture.

A month ago, the Jin soldiers suddenly attacked and broke through their defenses. In order to protect themselves, they had no choice but to abandon their camp and flee.

Fearing a fight and fleeing is a capital crime under military law.

So they simply became bandits and fled eastward along the mountains for more than half a month before they entered Jianhe County.

There were at least hundreds of people who fled with them at that time.

However, because they would be too conspicuous if they gathered together, and because of their disagreements, everyone split into more than a dozen small teams and fled for their lives.

The one-eyed team is a team with fewer people.

Lu You reported the matter to the village head Sun Mantang, in order to get him to follow Zuo Yunfeng to report to the county government.

Although Lu You didn't know how much of an impact this would have, it was all she could do for the folks in Heyuan Village.

After entering Qingshi Town, Zuo Yunfeng and Sun Mantang went straight to the county government office.

Lu You took the empty basket, walked around the entrance of the clinic, and then went to Shuxiang Restaurant again.

"My little ancestor! You are here at last!"

Seeing Lu You, Liu hurried forward and said.

After a few days of fermentation, the golden pastry is now completely famous in Qingshi Town. As soon as the Shuxiang Restaurant opens every day, ten copper bells will be picked up.

Some people have even started businesses specifically for buying and selling quotas.

He first used three taels of silver to arrange a banquet, and then went to the post station to look for foreign merchants.

Or they would go to brothels where people get drunk and have fun to sell their products. Many Enkes would be very generous in order to save face in front of the women they like.

Generally speaking, these people can make a few cents from this transaction.

This also led to the golden crisps becoming increasingly scarce, and they were directly sold as "future cakes".

But the more this happens, the more important Lu You as a supplier is highlighted.

Those who come to eat the golden pastry now are all noble men. If the pre-sales are sold out but the goods cannot be delivered on time, she, Liu, really cannot afford it.

Taking the bamboo basket from Lu You, Liu hurriedly checked it out. Only when she saw ten sesame cakes lying quietly inside did she breathe a sigh of relief.

"Scared me!"

"It's almost noon, and I thought you weren't coming. I was worried about how to explain to the guests later!"

As she spoke, Liu turned around and placed the five-spice sesame cake on the counter, then looked at Lu You again.

"Luyo, I can't believe you, who looks so skinny and weak, actually practiced martial arts in secret."

"Tell me quickly, what happened between you and that young man in white yesterday? Where did you go?"

Looking at Liu's expectant eyes, Lu You chuckled helplessly.

It seems that whether in modern times or in this other world, women's love of gossip will never change.

"That person and I are old acquaintances. We knew each other before."

"Those hunters bullied my aunt yesterday, so I took him to avenge her!"

Hearing Lu You's words, Liu was slightly stunned.

"Revenge for me? They are quite strong. Are you not hurt?"

"It's okay, someone just stabbed me in the back!" Lu You said lightly.

Then he reached out and tore open his collar, revealing the white cloth wrapped around his chest.

"This……"

Liu looked down and quickly covered Lu You's collar after just one glance.

"How can you, a grown woman, tear your clothes like this in public?"

"It's okay!" Lu You said with a smile, "Everyone is eating, so no one is looking at me."

"That won't work either!" Liu pulled Lu You aside and said, "Is your back injury okay?"

"It's nothing serious. I've just changed the medicine in the clinic. It's just a superficial wound. It won't cause any trouble."

Lu You said the prepared words, then reached out and held Liu's arm.

"Aunt, I'm not only delivering cakes today, I also need your help with something."

Hearing Lu You's words, Liu was stunned at first, then reached out and patted the back of Lu You's hand.

"You were stabbed in the back in order to avenge your aunt, and you're still asking for help. That's a bit too unorthodox."

"If you have anything to ask, just ask. As long as I can help, I will definitely help."

Seeing Liu like this, Lu You didn't keep her in suspense.

"It's not a big deal, I just want to ask Aunt to help me find a place to live in this city."

"To be honest, the guys who bullied you yesterday were not hunters, but roaming soldiers and bandits."

"Although they were all killed by Young Master Zuo, two of them still managed to escape."

"They have seen my face, and I am afraid they will seek revenge, so I plan to rent a yard in town to feel more at ease."

Upon hearing this, Liu chuckled.

"What did I think? You just wanted to rent a yard."

"In this way, my family still has an idle yard in the south of the city."

"That's where we lived before we bought the restaurant. It's not big, but it has everything."

"It's just that it's been idle for the past two years, so it's inevitably a little run-down, but it can be lived in after some cleaning."

"If you don't mind, you can live there. You can clean up the yard yourself. I won't give you any compensation, and I won't ask you for rent."

"How do you like it?"
