Travel through troubled times and escape famine with the system

Lu Yi looked at his second sister in front of him with some surprise.

As a child who grew up in Heyuan Village, although Lu Yi was well-read, Qingshi Town was the end of his journey after all.

Even if you have lofty ambitions in your heart, they are just the fantasies of youth.

Lu Yi was full of enthusiasm for governing the country and revitalizing the people, but when he thought about his life, the end of his imagination was just three tiled houses and a small courtyard in Qingshi Town.

Reading brings wisdom and broadens your horizons and mind, while life is realistic and is subject to the environment. The two are not in conflict!

What puzzled him was the deer in front of him.

Just a few days ago, before taking the exam, Lu Dejin had a long talk with the three siblings.

At that time, Lu You once said that her biggest wish was to live a stable life and no longer worry about food and drink, so that she could feel at peace.

But now, the meaning of the second sister's words was full of undisguised greed. These were two completely different mentalities.

"Aren't the houses in Qingshi Town good enough?"

Walking forward, Lu Yi murmured in a low voice.

"What?" Lu You turned to look at Lu Yi: "Xiao Yi, what did you say?"

Lu Yi stopped when he heard this, hesitated for a moment before speaking slowly.

"I want to ask you, second sister. You said the houses here are run-down. What do you imagine your residence to look like?"

Lu You shook his head slightly when he heard this.

"I haven't really thought about what kind of place I want to live in in the future. I'm just talking about the way this town looks. It's really different from what I imagined in my mind."

"In my opinion, even if the houses in a town are not magnificent buildings with carved railings and jade walls, they should still be lined up in rows and be prosperous and thriving."

"No matter how bad it is, it shouldn't be as desolate and dilapidated as it is now. If I were to live here, I would rather live in Heyuan Village."

There was no falsehood in Lu You's words at this time. As for the origin of such an idea, it was thanks to the many costume dramas in the 21st century.

In those dramas, no matter which dynasty or era, the buildings in the city are all exquisite. How could they be like the scene before our eyes?

This is also the most difficult thing for Lu You to accept after traveling through time.

The living environment here is so bad!

When it comes to food and drink, even if there is only white rice and wild vegetables at home, Lu You can still grit his teeth and persevere. After all, there is Wuda brand sesame cakes there, so he can get by.

But sleeping is a bit too hard.

Although the house at home can shelter from wind and rain, in Lu You's memory of the 21st century, that thing has absolutely nothing to do with a house.

Especially the side room where he lived, which was at best just a... shed that wasn't very drafty!

Once I get the money, I will definitely demolish all those houses and rebuild them!

This was the goal Lu You set on the second day after he traveled here!

As for Lu Yi behind him, how would he know these things?

After hearing about Lu You’s ideal town, he could only shake his head helplessly.

"Second sister, the prosperous scene you described is probably only found in the capitals of various states. Could it be that you want to move our family to the capital?"

"Prefecture?" Lu You patted Lu Yi's shoulder with a smile and said, "Xiao Yi, your vision is still too short-sighted. Your second sister is talking about Wudu!!"

Wudu?

Lu Yi looked at Lu You's face, not knowing whether to laugh or cry.

"Second sister, that is the most dazzling capital city. Do you want to move our family there?"

"How about... let's go to the infirmary and check out his brain first?"

"I always feel that when you fainted a few days ago, you must have hurt your head. I always feel like you have become a different person..."

Hearing Lu Yi's words, Lu You's body stiffened slightly. It took him several breaths before he grinned again and revealed a big smile.

"A different person? Maybe!"

"To be precise, when those lackeys of Mr. Qiu's family wanted to demolish my father's mourning hall, the original Lu You died completely."

"When I woke up and saw you and Luming being beaten on the ground, I was no longer the Luyou I had been before."

"Xiaoyi, we used to have our father standing in front of us, and I could be cowardly at that time."

"Now that my father is gone, if anything happens in the future, I will be the one to handle it!"

After saying this, Lu You chuckled, turned around and walked away.

And on the spot, Lu Yi stood there in a daze, tears in his eyes.

Lu You walked slowly on the bluestone on the ground, but when he looked around, his eyes kept looking back secretly.

After walking for dozens of steps and about to reach the street corner, Lu Yi behind him jogged over to catch up.

"sister……"

Hearing the shouting behind him, Lu You slowly turned around.

Lu Yi stood still, choking with sobs, and held his breath for a long time before speaking again.

"Second sister! No matter what you become, you are still my second sister!"

"If anything happens in the future, my brother and I will help you handle it together and will never let you face it alone!"

Hearing this, Lu You's eyes welled up with tears and he quickly covered his face and sobbed softly.

"Xiaoyi, you have finally grown up..."

Although Lu Yi is smart, it is only mentally.

Seeing my second sister crying with her face covered, although I was anxious, I didn't know what to do. All I could do was to stand by her side.

Fortunately, Lu You didn't cry for too long. After a while, she wiped away her tears and raised her head embarrassedly.

"It's a joke for you, kid."

Lu You wiped his cheek and chuckled.

"Don't worry about me. Go to the academy and hand in the books. I'll go to the market to buy some rice and food. I'll also take a look around to see if there's any way to make money."

"After you collect the work fee, come to the tea stall in the market to find me. I will be waiting there."

After hearing Lu You's instructions, Lu Yi hesitated, but still obediently left.

If it were before, even though Lu You was three years older than Lu Yi, Lu Yi would never let her wander around the city by herself.

After all, with his previous temper, if he really met some bad guy, Lu You would just be bullied for nothing.

But now...

Thinking of the dagger tied to Lu You's leg, Lu Yi strode away without even looking back.

There is nothing to worry about now, because my second sister is a bad person!!

[Negative emotions from Lu Yi +10, +10...]

Listening to the mechanical sound ringing in his mind, Lu You looked at Lu Yi who was walking away in confusion.

Why does this kid still have negative emotions towards me?

Could it be that there was a flaw in the way he complained just now?

Can't?

As for the lament about death and rebirth just now, she tried her best to imitate the tone of the evil heroines in those movies and TV dramas.

Although there are only a few sentences, it fully reflects the tenacious spirit of a girl from the lower class who grew up under the rule of a feudal dynasty and who, despite suffering numerous hardships and oppression, still refuses to accept her fate.

Especially the tears after listening to Lu Yi's words at the end, which elevated the whole performance to a whole new level.

It can be said that this performance is her masterpiece.

It doesn't make sense that you can't even handle a fourteen-year-old kid, right?

Looking at Lu Yi's figure disappearing around the corner, Lu You shook his head in confusion.

It seems that this little Lu Yi has a bit of a rebellious nature!
