Happiness System
Chapter 12: The Cannon Fodder Wife of the Scholar-President (1)
After Qin Yunxi was woken up, she stayed in bed for a long time before getting up.
When I opened the door, Mu Jingheng just came back from outside, all wet.
After a moment's pause, she remembered that she had been planning to worship her grandfather yesterday afternoon, but then the wooden egg incident happened.
"Madam, is it time for breakfast?" When Mu Jingheng saw her, his solemn expression eased a little.
"No, I got up a little late. Has Jingheng used it?" Qin Yunxi walked over.
"Not yet. It's cold outside. Please go inside quickly, my lady." Mu Jingheng gave her a light support.
Today's weather is indeed colder than the previous few days. Damn it, it's spring already and it's getting colder day by day!
Qin Yunxi shrank her neck and followed Mu Jingheng's force towards the kitchen.
"Sister, you're up! Mudan'er cooked egg custard for you!" Mudan'er's eyes lit up when Qin Yunxi saw him.
"Sister and brother-in-law, there is hot water in the pot. I'll get it for you!" Yinbao wanted to reduce his presence because he hadn't done what his brother-in-law had asked him to do. However, he was afraid of being criticized by the flatterer Mudan, so he hurried over to serve him attentively.
Qin Yunxi glanced at him. Poor kid, fourteen years old was still a baby in her era. This unfortunate child has been kicked out of the house and has to start his own business, without a penny!
But her character couldn’t collapse, so she snorted with a cold face.
In fact, the couple had already communicated last night. It was partly their fault that Yinbao was kicked out. It was the same for one younger brother to take care of two younger brothers. Besides, Yinbao could run errands for them and serve as a servant.
But Yinbao didn't know. He was very cautious for fear of being driven out. Most people in the village had only been to the town at most. He didn't dare to think about Qingteng County. Besides, he didn't have a pass. If he was caught as a vagrant, he would be sent to jail!
When the family was divided, he only got two pieces of tattered clothes and not even a quilt. Now he has nowhere to go. It seems that his sister and her family are moving away and won't be back for a while. I wonder if he can stay here temporarily?
Yinbao didn't know that when Mu Jingheng went to help Mudaner register his household registration yesterday, he not only helped him separate his household registration from the Qin family, but also helped him get a travel permit. A huge surprise was waiting for him.
After finishing my breakfast with trepidation, I watched the carriage approach from afar, and watched my brother-in-law and the driver load the luggage onto the carriage...
Yinbao was hesitant to speak, his mind was filled with questions: should he be kicked out or beaten and kicked out?
Seeing my brother-in-law helping my sister onto the carriage, Mudaner also got on...
My brother-in-law locked the door! Yinbao was so anxious that he wanted to slap himself a few times, saying you are a coward!
"Yinbao, why don't you come up quickly? Don't waste time!" Mu Jingheng looked at Yinbao who was standing there stupidly, and thought to himself, this kid doesn't seem to be very smart?
"Ah? Ah! Here it comes!" A pie in the sky! Just be a drifter, just eat a few days of full meals first!
Yinbao rushed over and climbed onto the carriage in a panic. He almost stepped on empty air and fell down. Fortunately, Mu Jingheng was there to pull him up.
"Hehe, hehe!" Bank was both happy and embarrassed, and didn't know how to react except to smile foolishly.
Seeing that everyone was on board, the driver sat on the shaft, whipped the horse and shouted, "Let's go!"
The Mu clan leader, along with several clan elders, watched from afar as the "hope of the entire clan" took his wife and brother-in-law on a horse-drawn carriage to take the exam. They were reluctant to go back until the carriage disappeared in the distance.
It was not until the carriage drove out of the village and was not driven off that Yinbao was sure that he was not dreaming. He had someone to rely on and he was going to Qingteng County!
Hahaha...
After coming back to their senses, Yinbao and Mudaner excitedly touched and looked here and there, chattering and discussing the carriage.
Mu Jingheng glanced at his wife who was leaning on him, tucked the quilt under her and said, "Madam, if you feel uncomfortable, please tell me. Let's walk slower!"
"Well, it's fine at the moment." Qin Yunxi smiled at him.
It was really good! Although their luggage took up a small part of the space, they were relatively small and thin, so it seemed quite spacious.
The carriage was also sturdy and windproof. Although there were no cushions or fire baskets, Mu Jingheng gave her a quilt to cushion her and wrapped her tightly in it, so she didn't feel cold at all. It was many times better than the previous ox cart!
Of course, I don’t know how many times more money I spent!
I paid two cents just for the price of the ticket, two cents again before I set off, and two cents again after I arrive at my destination.
This is the price if her body allows her to reach Qingteng County on time at a normal speed before the city closes. If she is unwell and her journey is delayed, she will have to pay extra. The specific price depends on the delay!
Considering the attractive fare, Qin Yunxi decided that she would not slow down as long as she didn't feel like she was going to ascend to heaven!
Seeing that their brother-in-law was reading a book and their sister was sleeping, Yinbao and Mudaner stopped fighting and lowered their voices.
They wanted to open the window to see the scenery outside, but were stopped by Mu Jingheng.
Since their sister was a sick beauty and was sleeping to recuperate, the two brothers Yinbao did not dare to express any opinions and could only whisper in low voices.
The "sleeping" Qin Yunxi actually released the small system out of the small dark room and chatted with it. Mainly, she still felt that the weather was weird.
Unfortunately, the small system is too useless and cannot provide important information, so Qin Yunxi can only drive it out and use it as a detector.
In fact, the Tang Dynasty had good public security, low taxes and a strong government, and relatively few bandits. But it does not mean that there are no other problems, so just be prepared.
The little system had originally planned to cry and accuse the host. Isn't it said that women are soft-hearted and like cute things? It thinks that the shape of its cloud is still very cute, and then it will take the opportunity to make a request.
Who knew that the host didn't follow the routine, and when it saw that it couldn't provide useful information, it drove it to be a detector. It was so pitiful, but between being a detector and being locked up in a small dark room, it chose the former!
After Qin Yunxi drove out the "little waste" system, he went through the main plot and the original owner's memories. In the main plot, the life before the second male lead met the female lead was just briefly mentioned, while the original owner's memory was only about being sick and complaining all day long.
Qin Yunxi didn't bother to find any useful information, so she just put the matter aside. She got up too "early" in the morning and needed to catch up on some sleep!
Perhaps the carriage was designed with shock-absorbing function, or perhaps Mu Jingheng made the "bed" comfortable, so the carriage, which was much faster than the ox cart, was actually more stable to sit in.
It may also be because he had a good rest in the past two days. Qin Yunxi felt uncomfortable sleeping with the shaking, and his body did not have much reaction. If nothing unexpected happens, he will be able to enter Qingteng County smoothly today.
Mudan was small and bored, and seeing his sister sleeping soundly, he yawned and fell asleep beside Qin Yunxi soon.
Yinbao was worried and tossed and turned last night, unable to fall asleep. Now that he was too excited, he was also infected with sleepiness and leaned against the carriage, his head dangling slightly, half asleep and half awake.
Seeing this, Mu Jingheng stuffed Mu Dan'er into the quilt, put Qin Yunxi's coat on Yinbao, and then he hugged Qin Yunxi in his arms and closed his eyes and pretended to sleep.
The small system peeped at this scene and wanted to scream again, but when it thought of Qin Yunxi's warning, it quickly shrank and floated forward, otherwise it would accidentally wake up the host and have to go into the small dark room again.
"Sir, Qingshi Town is just ahead. Would you like to go in for lunch?" the driver asked as he knocked on the door at noon.
"Eat? Eat? I have to eat!" Yinbao suddenly jumped up, but bumped into the carport and cried out in pain.
"Mudan'er also wants to eat." Mudan'er thought it was time for dinner and got up with his eyes half open.
"Noisy!" Qin Yunxi felt unwell. She felt a headache and was very irritated when she heard the voices. She subconsciously rubbed the "quilt" and wanted to put her head into the quilt.
Mu Jingheng froze for a moment, and after a while he hugged Qin Yunxi tightly and said to the driver outside: "Uncle, please help us find a restaurant to eat."
"Okay, sir, sit tight!" Upon hearing the voice of the head of the family, the coachman immediately raised his whip and drove the carriage into the town.
Yinbao and Mudaner were both awake by now. They quietly opened the window a crack and looked out while their brother-in-law wasn't paying attention.
There were pedestrians on the road outside. The carriage was not moving very fast and the wind was not strong, so Mu Jingheng pretended not to know what they were doing.
"My wife, it's time to get up and have lunch..." Mu Jingheng noticed that his wife's face was slightly pale, not as rosy as it was when she was sleeping soundly a few days ago, and his face suddenly looked not so good.
I put my hand on her forehead and found that she was not hot, and her expression relaxed a little.
Yinbao looked outside and observed his brother-in-law. Seeing that he looked unhappy, he thought he was being discovered and was going to be scolded, so he slammed the window back.
Mu Jingheng looked at him coldly when he heard the voice.
Yinbao suddenly felt a chill all over his body, and it took him a while to find his voice and call out "brother-in-law" for mercy.
Oh my god, it turns out that my brother-in-law is even scarier than my sister!
If looks could kill, he would have been torn into pieces! Scary!
Mudaner looked at his brother-in-law and then at his second brother, scratched his head, and thought, uh, what happened?
However, the noise made by Yinbao woke Qin Yunxi up. Coupled with the gradually increasing noise outside, she was completely awake, though feeling a little unhappy.
Mu Jingheng reached out to Yin Bao, who hid and huddled in a corner, holding his head and shouting, "Brother-in-law, I was wrong!"
"Clothes!" Mu Jingheng looked at the clothes on him with a slightly cold look.
It's all dirty!
"Ah? Oh!" Yinbao reluctantly took off the clothes he was wearing.
Mu Jingheng took the clothes back, patted them, and then put them on Qin Yunxi.
Qin Yunxi's face was full of resistance and disgust. The unfortunate child's clothes were so black that they smelled like charcoal! Her clothes were dirty!
"Be good and make do with it. We don't have any other clothes now. Your husband will wash them for you when we get to Qingteng!" Mu Jingheng coaxed.
He really didn't think so much about it before, but now it seems that Yinbao deserves to suffer the cold!
The driver had already stopped the carriage, and Qin Yunxi knew it was not the right time to be picky, so she reluctantly put on her clothes and got off the carriage.
There are layers of dark clouds outside, and the temperature is even lower than when I went out!
Mu Jingheng had originally planned to take a rest in Qingshi Town seeing that his wife did not look well, but now it seemed that he had to hurry on.
Qin Yunxi looked at the gray sky and saw Mu Jingheng frowning, and she knew that the climate was indeed abnormal. Fortunately, her body was just a little uncomfortable and there was no other reaction. Now she had walked half of the journey, and it should be no problem for her to reach Qingteng County.
The group ordered some simple and easy-to-digest food, ate quickly and then hurried on their way.
