Travel through troubled times and escape famine with the system

Lu Ming, Qian Zhaode and others followed Lu Yi into the city.

At the same time, outside Qingning County, Zhao Wenbo and others also lit a bonfire.

The three women, Lu You, Liu and Widow Zhou, squeezed together and lay down in the carriage, shooing away mosquitoes and talking in low voices.

"Lu You, when we get to the city, you can go to Cangyun Gate with us."

"Master Cunrui is very prestigious in the Cangyun Sect, so there will be no problem keeping you guys here."

Liu put her hand on Lu You's arm and said.

Upon hearing this, Lu You gently patted the back of Liu's hand.

"Thank you for your kindness, auntie, but I plan to do some small business at the gate of the city."

"I sent someone to tell my uncle and aunt to come to the city to look for me."

"They are both farmers, and it is not easy for them to live in the city. If they miss each other, they will suffer a lot."

Upon hearing this, Liu hummed lightly: "To be honest, I really didn't realize before that you are such a capable kid."

Lu You chuckled: "It's okay, there's still time for you to praise me more now."

Snapped! !

As he was speaking, Lu You raised his hand and slapped himself in the face.

"The mosquitoes are so annoying tonight. I must buy some mosquito repellent incense when I enter the city tomorrow."

Lu You was muttering to himself when he suddenly sat up.

This gave a fright to Mrs. Liu and Widow Zhou who were standing next to them.

"Girl, why are you so startled?" Liu said while patting Lu You.

Lu You ignored him and instead looked at the fire not far away.

"Mr. Guan! Why don't we go into the city?"

Hearing Lu You's shout, Guan Shanyue and the others turned around and looked over.

"Boss, the city is under curfew and the soldiers here don't accept money, so how can we get in..."

As Hu Laojiu was speaking, his voice became smaller and smaller, and then, like Lu You, he turned to look at Guan Shanyue.

"Yes, Mr. Guan, why don't we go into the city?"

Following Hu Laojiu's words, everyone reacted and turned to look at Guan Shanyue.

Seeing that everyone was looking at him, Guan Shanyue looked puzzled, and then he finally raised his hand and tapped his forehead.

"Look at my memory!!"

As he spoke, Guan Shanyue reached into his arms and took out the green letter that Wang Mingzheng had given him.

"Wenbo, hand this warrant to the gatekeepers, and we will enter the city!"

Zhao Wenbo stood up, took the warrant, turned around and walked towards the city gate.

The rest of the people all stood up and packed their things.

Lu You jumped out of the car and waved to drive away the mosquitoes.

"Mr. Guan, you are old, and traveling all the time is very exhausting. Next time you have something important, you should put it in Uncle Zhao's hands, and don't lose it again."

[Negative emotions from Guan Shanyue +30, +30, +30...]

"You didn't remember it either?" Guan Shanyue frowned.

"I just can't remember it? I was just testing you." Lu You said with a smile: "Alas, what a pity, you failed this test."

[Negative emotions from Guan Shanyue +80, +80, +80...]

"Lu You, I know you're not a bad girl, but if you keep bullying and mocking me, don't blame me for being rude!"

Hearing this, Lu You stopped and turned back: "So what if you are rude? Are you trying to scare me with your virtue? Is your thing as useful as my virtue brick?"

Looking at Lu You's indifferent look, Guan Shanyue lightly brushed his sleeves.

"Don't forget, you admitted it yourself, you are my granddaughter."

"Hey, hey, hey!" Hearing the word "granddaughter", Lu You hurriedly shouted, "You can't win the argument, so you just throw sand, right? I call you grandpa, do you really think you are my elder?"

Guan Shanyue chuckled when he heard this.

"It doesn't matter what I think, what matters is what the world thinks."

Looking at Guan Shanyue's confident look, Lu You felt a little uneasy for some reason.

"What do you mean?"

Guan Shanyue chuckled when he heard this.

"I have some reputation among the scholars of the world, and people also know that I have never married in my life and have no children."

"But if you bully me again, when I return to Wudu, I will announce to the world that you are my granddaughter!"

"When the time comes, you won't be able to deny my status as your grandfather!"

After Guan Shanyue said this, he laughed out loud and walked towards the city gate.

Lu You just stood there in a daze, his whole body numb!

"Old man! You are playing too dirty! Aren't you lying?"

"You were the one who recognized me as your grandfather first, so it's not a lie."

"That was just a temporary solution... Lao Guan... No, Mr. Guan! Don't play it like that! Can I admit my mistake to you..."

"It depends on my mood..."

Seeing Lu You surrounding Guan Shanyue and begging for mercy with nice words, Liu and others all covered their faces and laughed.

"It seems that Mr. Guan likes your second sister very much!"

"How about I ask your Uncle Zhao to act as a bridge and persuade Mr. Guan, so that you two siblings can worship him as your godfather."

Liu advised Lu Yi.

"Although Mr. Guan has always been in Qingshi Town, your uncle Zhao said that Mr. Guan has a very high reputation in the court."

"Having such a backer will definitely be of great help to you and your brother in the future."

Upon hearing this, Lu Yi nodded slightly at Liu.

"Thank you Aunt Liu for your kindness, but my father taught us that we should strive for everything on our own and not curry favor with the powerful."

"My second sister and Mr. Guan's words were just a joke. Please don't mention it again, aunt."

As Lu Yi spoke, he also walked towards the city gate, leaving Liu standing there in a daze.

"When a great fortune falls on your head, is there really anyone who doesn't want it?"

"How come these scholars are all so sour and Confucian, they all seem to be cut from the same mold?"

When the gatekeeper saw Wang Mingzheng's handwritten order, he turned around and went back to the city. A full quarter of an hour later, Qingning County Magistrate Wei Anping personally led his men out of the city gate to welcome them.

Wei Anping is the newly transferred county magistrate. He is about thirty years old and looks much younger than Lang Zhengping and Wang Mingzheng.

When he saw Lu You and the others, Wei Anping was also very polite. He personally sent everyone to the inn, and then gave some instructions to the innkeeper before saying goodbye and leaving.

"Dear guests, the four upper rooms have been booked."

"Lord Wei has instructed that all your expenses in the store tonight will be covered by the county government."

"If you have any needs, as long as our shop can handle it, please feel free to ask."

The innkeeper said to Lu You and the others with a smile, which made everyone sigh in their hearts that it is indeed easier to get things done with someone.

"Prepare some simple food. It doesn't have to be complicated. Just make two side dishes and boil a pot of soup."

Zhao Wenbo said angrily that he had been eating sesame cakes all the way, and although they filled him up, they were really hard to swallow.

But just when the innkeeper was about to agree, Lu You, who was standing next to him, suddenly spoke.

"Let's not do it. Eating late at night is not good for your health. Let's go to bed early."

"Still four rooms, the same as yesterday's arrangement, but they should be close together."

"By the way, Aunt Liu, Xiaoyi, Xiaodouzi, please come to my room later. I have something to tell you."
