Reclaiming My Space at the Start, Not Suffering a Second While Fleeing Famine

Zhou Jiaojiao woke up to find herself transmigrated into a book, becoming the foil character to the female protagonist, who emptied out her resources. Not only was she a fake young lady, but she wa...

Chapter 119 Arrangement of Departure

"Nonsense, this was not burned by us, it was burned by a distinguished guest, who must be a distinguished guest from the capital." Lao Lin smoked his pipe and frowned, as if he was thinking about something important.

"Dad, would you accept a disciple? I really want to be able to make glass, so that I can bring honor to our family."

"We have no right to interfere in your affairs. Even if we wanted to follow you, you might not agree. Didn't you see that even if you didn't hide anything, after teaching us, your father, we still couldn't make better colored glass?"

"Forget it, just study hard, maybe one day you will succeed."

Because of this incident, the two remembered Zhou Jiaojiao's name. They didn't expect that one day in the future, they would climb mountains and wade through water to go to the Qianshan City that everyone admired, just to learn better skills, and they were even willing to work for Zhou Jiaojiao for free.

This is a later matter, so let’s not talk about it for now.

Now that Zhou Jiaojiao had the equipment, she put penicillin culture on the agenda and placed all the equipment in her own room, waiting for the results.

She just finished this.

Wang Da knocked on the door to inform her that it was Mrs. Wang who wanted to see her.

Zhou Jiaojiao packed up her medicine box and went over, but she didn't expect that Lord Ye would be there this time.

Lord Ye, Madam Wang, and Qiao Hai are all here.

"Why is Lord Ye here?" After Zhou Jiaojiao walked in, the door was closed. She was not afraid that they would cheat her. After all, she was not like before who had no self-defense skills at all.

Lord Ye smiled and said, "Don't misunderstand, Miss Zhou. Actually, I need Qiao Hai to wake up and ask him something."

"It just so happened that he just woke up and then fainted, so he asked someone to call you."

Zhou Jiaojiao thought that it was probably related to the prince. Lord Ye was also General Xie's man, and General Xie supported the prince. Now that there was news about the prince, it was normal for them to be anxious.

Zhou Jiaojiao nodded and walked over to give Qiao Hai medicine. In order to wake him up, she had to give him an acupuncture to stimulate him to wake up quickly.

Qiao Hai's body recovered a little, and he finally woke up after an incense stick of time.

Zhou Jiaojiao immediately stood up and said, "Master Ye, Madam Wang, don't rush to remove the golden needles from Qiao Hai. I will be back in two quarters of an hour. You two can talk first."

Zhou Jiaojiao said this and turned to leave, not wanting to get involved in this matter.

Lord Ye also seemed to have some reservations and was very satisfied with her understanding. He felt that such people were more comfortable to use.

"Miss Zhou, please wait next door. Sorry to bother you." Lord Ye said with a smile.

Zhou Jiaojiao nodded, turned and walked out.

After Lord Ye and the others left, he walked to the bedside and asked anxiously, "Qiao Hai, how are you? Can you speak?"

"Who are you?" Qiao Hai woke up and looked at him warily.

Lord Ye directly took out a token with the word "Xie" on it, which made Qiao Hai's pupils shrink. He reached out and grabbed the token in an instant. After taking a closer look, he suddenly looked up and asked: "Are you General Xie's man?"

"I am the Tongzhi of Yuzhou, and I was promoted by General Xie to my current position." Lord Ye said.

Qiao Hai understood the implication and finally breathed a sigh of relief. He said, "Sir, please send someone to rescue His Royal Highness the Crown Prince."

"Where is His Highness?" Lord Ye was also a little excited and worried.

Qiao Hai said, "Your Highness was ambushed and fell into the river. We dodged several times before finally taking him to the Huaishan Taoist Temple for shelter. I came to Yuzhou to seek help. I heard that a general from Youzhou had arrived in Yuzhou. Is that true?"

"Your Highness must be sent to Youzhou immediately."

When Lord Ye heard this, he also felt that this matter was imperative. After all, he had attracted a lot of people's attention. If the prince was discovered when he arrived in Yuzhou, it would be even worse.

"Okay, I'll arrange someone right away."

"You should take good care of your injuries."

In the next few days, Zhou Jiaojiao did not see Lord Ye, who was always on the move. She helped get a lot of medicinal herbs from many wealthy families, which finally alleviated the epidemic in Yuzhou and prevented large-scale deaths among the people.

Just when she thought things would continue like this.

Lord Mo is back.

"Miss Zhou, aren't you going to Youzhou? I'll arrange someone to take you there." This was the first sentence Lord Mo said.

Zhou Jiaojiao felt a little strange.

"Master Mo, what's the reason?"

"I won't lie to you. Your husband, Chu Chengshan, is extremely powerful, surpassing many soldiers. Even ordinary generals can't compare to him. I hope that everyone in your village can go on the road together and help me send one more person to Youzhou."

"Miss Zhou, take this token and go see General Xie and hand the person over to him. If it's not General Xie, you can't hand the person over no matter what anyone else says."

Zhou Jiaojiao's heart skipped a beat. Could it be that the prince was put into her team?

"Sir...is this person in a high position and powerful?" Zhou Jiaojiao raised her eyebrows.

Lord Mo was not angry at all, but laughed out loud. "I knew Miss Zhou was a smart person. Let's not mince words. The people around me may not have your ability to send people to Youzhou safely. Just treat them as ordinary people."

"Why not let Zhao Changliu escort them?" Zhou Jiaojiao felt strange. The male protagonist's luck was also very strong. If the task was handed over to the male protagonist, the possibility of completing the task was also very high. Although so far, her own luck was not lower than that of the male protagonist.

Lord Mo said as a matter of course: "Zhao Changliu is too obvious, it is only right that he is responsible for attracting the attention of outsiders."

Zhou Jiaojiao: “…”

You've already said it, what else can I say?

"I believe in Miss Zhou, just like how she managed to deliver the artifact to General Xie without even telling me." Lord Mo said this, his eyes blazing as he looked at Zhou Jiaojiao. "If General Xie hadn't specifically requested to see Miss Zhou, I definitely wouldn't have let her go."

Zhou Jiaojiao chuckled twice in her heart.

She was willing to take the initiative to make friends with them because she knew the rule that talented people would not be killed in troubled times. Otherwise, she would have concealed her abilities long ago.

"Then let's arrange it." Zhou Jiaojiao rubbed her brows and said something ugly upfront: "Since he's with us, there's no one to wait on him, so he won't be suspected."

"Don't worry, I've already told the person involved about this."

"Oh right." Zhou Jiaojiao narrowed her eyes. "In our village, there's a family..."

-

"What are you going to do?"

"Let me go now."

Zhou's mother and others watched in horror as their family members were dragged out of the house, and even Zhou Linlin was not spared.

"What crime have you committed that you still need to ask me?" The yamen runner shouted in front of all the villagers of Liushu Village, "You spread the news of the artifact to the capital, and you still ask me what's wrong?"

"Everyone, get out of here."

Brother Zhou's face changed immediately.

Zhou's mother didn't expect it was because of this incident.

The village chief and others were worried about them, but when they heard it was because of this incident, everyone stopped and looked at them with disgust.
