Become a winner in life after binding the childbearing system
Chapter 204: Escaping from natural disasters and turning things around (3)
With the shop's fragrant mutton soup and pork-filled buns in their hands, the family of six ate their fill.
After packing a few more things in oil paper and taking them away, Shen Yao came to the clinic to meet up with Zhou and Shen Fugui.
"Dad, Mom, you guys should eat something first, we have a lot to do today."
He stuffed the bun in his hand into their hands without saying a word, and the family of eight walked out in a mighty manner.
Sometimes, when people are busy, they ignore the rapid passage of time.
Shen Yao took Shen Fugui, Zhou and the five children along the way, looking around, and finally rented three horse-drawn carriages from a dental clinic.
"It's too much. You have several children to take care of. You should save some money."
Zhou couldn't help but say that the simple idea of common people is to be frugal, and they would not feel uncomfortable even if they were suffering or tired.
Shen Yao couldn't stand it, mainly because she had enough confidence.
He smiled and reassured Zhou not to worry, saying that the trip to the county town would take several days, so if they hired an extra car, they would be able to sleep well at night.
"Mom, if you and Dad go there, how can we travel together as a family?"
Besides, Wei Cheng and the others are not young anymore. The youngest, Wei Zhen, is five years old. They can’t all sleep together.
Zhou:......
Zhou couldn't win over Shen Yao with words, and she felt that her daughter's personality had changed. Her appearance was still the same, but she was more resolute in her words and deeds than before.
"Well, it's because we felt so aggrieved in the past few years. It was clearly the Wei family who wronged us, but it seems like we took advantage of the Wei family.
Mother, this time when my daughter goes out, I am thinking that if I meet the right person, I will take a step forward.
It was the Second Brother Wei who was sorry to my daughter, and my daughter does not want to have anything to do with the Wei family anymore."
These words sounded a bit harsh when spoken by Shen Yao, but they just fit her mood at the moment.
Zhou cried out, and took Shen Yao's hand to show that she was worthy of being her daughter.
"We should have done this a long time ago. In the past two years, you always said that Zhen'er was too young and you couldn't bear to let her go.
Now that you have been delayed for these years, you should think more about yourself."
No matter how close a grandson or granddaughter is, they are not as close as a daughter. Zhou would rather see her daughter live a good life.
Her eyes were full of relief, and Zhou felt that Shen Yao had attained enlightenment by thinking this way.
Very good, very good. I will go visit the matchmaker in town when I have time next time. If I meet a good-looking young man, I will ask him to pay attention to my daughter.
That night, Shen Danian and his brothers also learned that Shen Yao was going to take her children to the county town.
"Mom, is it that the Wei family is bullying my third sister again? I'm going to settle the score with them right now!"
Shen Eryou got up and walked out angrily, but was stopped by Shen Fugui.
“Come back! Your third sister is fine, but it will be better for the children to go to the county town.
I'm telling you this just to let you know that we'll leave early tomorrow morning.
If anyone from the Wei family comes to visit again, we will just send them away."
Shen Siyu called out "Dad", "Third sister went to the county town. It's too difficult for one person to take care of several children."
He had been to the county town when he was a bodyguard a few years ago. It was a nice place, but everything was more expensive than in the town.
The third sister did have some private money after leaving the Wei family, but it was not enough to raise five children.
Shen Dayou nudged his wife He and said, "Dad, we still have some money. Let's give it to our third sister."
Upon hearing this, He hurried back to the house to get the silver, but was stopped by Zhou.
“No need, eldest sister-in-law, you can sit down too, your third sister has enough money for the time being.
Okay, your father and I are here to take care of this matter, so it’s not your turn to worry about it.”
Zhou was also afraid that this would cause some conflicts within the family.
Originally, it was a bit difficult to say whether Shen Yao came back to live here. If the daughters-in-law he married weren't all good and the family had not been harmonious for many years, there would probably have been a commotion a long time ago. After all, every household doesn't have much spare money.
The topic came to an end, and everyone's whispers at night had nothing to do with Shen Yao.
Shen Yao has already packed clothes and bedding with the children. They are just waiting for the carriage to arrive tomorrow. They can move all the items on board and set off directly.
The system was impressed by the host's high efficiency. It did not expect the host to act so quickly.
'We have to act quickly. In this world, there are more crises ahead.
How can we complete the primitive accumulation if we don't take the opportunity to leave the familiar environment of the town?
It’s not that Zhou and Shen Fugui are bad people, it’s just that the original owner is too familiar with them.
After being together for a long time, various conflicts are inevitable. Shen Yao is not the original owner and cannot do the same as the original owner.
"Host, why don't you go directly to the more prosperous capital city?"
The system feels that with the host's ability, he can live comfortably in the capital where the emperor is, so there is no need to choose to live in a secluded corner.
Shen Yao:......
Shen Yao didn't expect the system to think so highly of her. "It's different. If I go to the county town, I will have an excuse to go to the prefectural city. If I go directly to the prefectural city, it won't make sense for the Shen family."
Shen Yao just didn't want to maintain her persona in front of the original owner's relatives for too long, but it didn't mean she wanted to reveal her identity.
Since you are occupying the other person's body, there is no need to make it too ugly.
What’s more, this ancient world was a background of frequent natural disasters.
'Drought, floods, insect plagues, banditry... Do you think there will be help if you go to the capital?
Often crowded places are the least safe, and we may have to run away when the time comes.'
At least the Qinghe Town where they are located is not a suitable place to live.
Qinghe Town is located in the south of Qi State. Qinghe River suffers from floods almost every year. When the floods occur, all the fertile farmland will be barren. All they can do is migrate away.
The several prefectures surrounding Qinghe Town are basically located further south.
Once you go there, you're just delivering food to people, and it's hard to run away when things get chaotic because there are so many people there.
It has only been two days since Shen Yao came here, but she has already thought about what will happen next.
I didn't say too much to the system, because it would be exposed later anyway.
Close your eyes and go to sleep, it's a new day.
Wei Ying got up early in the morning and took Wei Yun and Wei Zhen with her to wash and get ready.
My eldest aunt, Mrs. He, and my second aunt, Mrs. Zhao, have already prepared breakfast.
Because Shen Yao and others left today, He and Zhao made some steamed buns, flower rolls and pancakes that are easy to store.
The weather in February is not that cold anymore, and some willow trees have even sprouted.
"Third sister, this is a small item that my sister-in-law and I prepared for you. It's not worth much and is convenient to use.
I heard that people in the city are very particular, and we in town can’t compare.”
Zhao stuffed a package into Shen Yao's hand, which contained some handkerchiefs and purses, all of which were homemade and could not be sold for much money.
"Thank you, sister-in-law. I won't be polite. I don't know when I can come back. Thank you for your hard work at home."
As for my brother's wife, Xiao Zhou, she took her children back to her parents' home for a short stay a few days ago and has not returned yet.
He and Zhao took the opportunity to exchange pleasantries with Shen Yao. After the family had finished their breakfast together, three horse-drawn carriages from the pawnbroker arrived at the door.
They hired a rickshaw driver. Shen Fugui and the Zhou couple both knew how to drive, so they saved the driver some money.
Shen Yao did not insist on this. She thought that when she got tired of waiting, she would help the two of them. This body could also drive a carriage, and even her eldest son Wei Cheng could help.
The whole family went to the county town, which would take at least ten days, and they had to report all the family matters, especially the butcher shop and the clinic.
"Dad, Mom, don't worry, we will definitely be able to protect our home."
Shen Dayou and his companions patted their chests to make assurances and repeated what they had said several times. Only then did Shen Fugui and Zhou feel at ease to drive away.
The carriage made a creaking sound as it went on the paved bluestone road. Shen Yao opened the curtains and looked outside with an indifferent expression.
Today is only the third day that Shen Yao has been here. Shen Yao doesn't know much about this small town bathed in the morning light.
However, looking at the quaint courtyards and old retro tools around, it is really difficult to adapt to the developed modern society when we have long been accustomed to it.
"My girl, if it's hot, please draw the curtains. It's dusty outside."
Shen Fugui, who was driving the coach, said something in a low voice and then quickened the pace of the coach.
Shen Yao nodded and asked Shen Fugui how the family business was going recently.
"Well, that's it. Pigs are hard to sell recently. The harvest was bad last year. People can't eat enough, so where is the food to feed the livestock?"
Shen Fugui frowned and continued the topic to remind Shen Yao not to forget to stock up some food when they arrived at the county town.
"I am afraid there will be another disaster this year. Who can predict God's temper?"
Shen Yao:......
Shen Yao looked up at the clear and bright sky and thought that in this world, God was indeed somewhat capricious.
"Dad, it's the same in our family. We store more food. As the saying goes, if you have food in your hands, you won't be worried."
"Yeah, that's the truth. Your mother and I both remember it. But you, you don't have any relatives around the county town. In the future..."
Shen Fugui became more and more addicted to talking, and his mouth was always busy along the way.
Shen Yao was very patient. Sitting with her were her three daughters.
The four people just listened to Shen Fugui talking, occasionally joining in a few words, until noon, when everyone stopped the carriage to rest. Shen Fugui was given instructions by Zhou, the driver in front, for a long time before he calmed down.
"If we continue walking for another two days, we will be able to reach Linshan County safely," said the driver, who was not young at all and looked about the same age as Shen Fugui.
"In the past, many people went to Linshan County, but in the past two years, some moved away, and the road has become much quieter."
Shen Fugui took over the conversation and sighed again. After returning, he ate some pancakes and drank some water, then quickly set off again.
This route is safe and there are no robbers, but the road to the provincial capital cannot be guaranteed.
Especially the further south you go, the less safe it is. On the contrary, there is a large army guarding the north, so there are not so many problems.
Shen Yao's ex-husband in this body is currently serving as a soldier in the north.
"There is an inn ahead. We can stay there, but we can't live there."
Shen Fugui told Shen Yao that because the post station belonged to the government, only court officials could live there. Ordinary people should be grateful for having a place to stay, because these were the rules since ancient times.
Shen Yao:......
Shen Yao didn't feel any rules, she just felt aggrieved. It turned out that status was the criterion for living a good life in ancient times.
It seems that going to the county town is not the purpose, she must complete the task as soon as possible.
It is best to get yourself a good identity when the task is completed.
She always wanted to take a look at the several prefectures around Linshan County.
