Zhou Dynasty
The outskirts of Wucheng.
A large army camped here, and only a small number of people were allowed to enter the city.
Among this group of people, there was a rather large carriage. Among the soldiers who were sleeping in the open air, this heavily shielded carriage was particularly eye-catching, and many people looked at it curiously.
When the carriage stopped at the post station, several masked young women got off!
The receptionist at the post station was startled and secretly glanced at the young general who was leading the group with a very good reputation, with a strange look on his face. However, the manager of the post station calmly invited the women in.
However, when the three women in front entered the post station, the woman at the end was a step slower, as if she was delayed inside and was pulled by the second to last woman. Finally, the woman bowed as if embarrassed, and the man gave up. Then the two of them followed the footsteps of the three women in front and entered the post station.
The person in charge of taking the carriage to rest went over and noticed a few salted melon seeds dropped where they came down.
Indoor
As soon as the door was closed, a slightly older woman turned around and tapped the head of the woman behind her, saying unhappily, "You, you're still in the mood to fill some melon seeds at this time?"
The woman being accused had delicate features and watery eyes on her small oval face, as if she was completely innocent. At this moment, the woman smiled, her eyes curved, and she looked so moving and innocent, which made people feel pity for her.
She tugged at the woman's sleeve and apologized, "I was wrong. I was just worried that I wouldn't have anything to kill time when I got to the post station."
"Is it time to consider this?" Zhao Shuhong tried hard to keep a straight face and wanted to teach her a lesson, but the woman in front of her was not only likable in appearance, but her voice was also extremely coquettish. Not the kind of coquettishness that some people use to treat men, but it was as if she was speaking to her as her closest person, with a coquettishness yet intimacy that made her reluctant to teach her a lesson and she almost failed.
Yan Qiushu, who was being scolded, smiled bitterly secretly and just looked at her without answering.
Zhao Shuhong had no choice but to give up and poured her a cup of tea: "You ate so many melon seeds, drink some water, be careful not to have a sore throat at night, go back and cry to your parents, don't let anything slip..."
She chattered incessantly, and Yan Qiushu held the teacup and drank. She seemed to be listening very seriously, but she was thinking about another situation in her mind.
How is she supposed to survive?
In fact, the five of them were all rescued from the bandits' den by the young general two days ago. Bandits were rampant in the suburbs of Wucheng, and passers-by had to spend money to avoid disaster. Some unlucky people, like them, were directly kidnapped.
But now that they have been rescued, the young general has contacted their families, and the families of the other four will come here to pick them up.
As for her...
Yan Qiushu sighed.
This is also the reason why she is only concerned about eating. If she doesn’t eat now, there will be nothing left to eat!
Because Yan Qiushu is a person who traveled through the book!
The original owner was also called Yan Qiushu, the fifth daughter of the Duke of Anguo's Mansion. Although she was born out of wedlock, her status in the family was not bad because of her mother's great means.
Logically speaking, with her status, it would be no problem for her to marry a rich man and live a happy life as a wealthy wife, but unfortunately, this is the world of a otaku's infighting novel.
The protagonists are the Crown Prince of Jin and his sixth concubine sister Yan Qiuyuan.
This story tells about Yan Qiuyuan, a reborn person who, as an unfavored daughter, learned about opportunities early on and helped her father overcome crises time and time again, successfully increasing her weight in her father's heart.
Then, taking advantage of the opportunity to worship Buddha, he saved the Prince of Jin who was injured in a secret mission at the time. The two met and fell in love, overcame the obstacles of their identities, and finally got together.
The original owner, Yan Qiushu, was a proud but humble cannon fodder.
The head of the Yan family was determined to have his extremely beautiful concubines marry the princes as concubines, so that he would be invincible in the future battle for the throne, and the original owner was naturally no exception.
However, the head of the Yan family still loved her and chose the most prestigious fifth prince for her.
It's just that she admires the Prince of Jin and wants to be with him. However, the Prince of Jin likes her concubine sister Yan Qiuyuan.
Because of this, the original owner and Yan Qiuyuan fought openly and secretly, causing all kinds of trouble. In the middle, the silly and poisonous elder sister looked down on the two of them, and in order to be with the Prince of Jin, she did not hesitate to drug herself and destroy her reputation.
However, she was unsuccessful, as the person she drugged was replaced by Yan Qiuyuan, and she was eventually paired with a poor scholar. The original owner missed the target by one move, and became the unlucky person who ruined her elder sister's innocence.
Originally, the original owner was going to die. It was fine for her to have a fight with her sisters at home, but to do such a thing, and in someone else's house, was too much, especially for the Yan family, an aristocratic family that attached great importance to reputation.
When the original owner was about to be executed, her mother took poison and committed suicide in order to let her live.
But at this time, the Yan family could no longer accommodate her, and the original owner was sent back to her hometown to end her miserable life.
Just as she was about to reach her hometown, the original owner met a thief. Because of her outstanding appearance, she was spotted by the thief and abducted.
The original owner was not a very powerful supporting character, but just a small cannon fodder in the early stage, so she did not have many roles.
Next, the original owner will lose his innocence due to being touched by bandits, but fortunately he is saved by a young general named Xiao Waiting who will die early in the future.
But in fact, the Yan family had already known for the first time that the original owner had been kidnapped by bandits. In order to protect the innocence of other daughters in the family, the Yan family had already announced that the original owner had suddenly fallen ill and died on the way back to her hometown.
The original owner was not aware of this. Instead, after the other four people left, her identity was discovered by Xiao Huaiting, who was suspicious of her. He told her that the Yan family had already expelled her.
In other words, she became an illegal resident.
In this era, illegal immigrants will be sent to jail!
Although she was innocent, as a woman, she was sent to prison. What awaited her was basically to be assigned to those old bachelors who could not find a wife, or to be favored by some superior and become a concubine who could be traded at will.
With this ending, the original owner knew that she had no future. In her grief and anger, she impulsively ran into the wall and died.
Yan Qiushu came here relatively early and had just been kidnapped by bandits. Knowing what would happen next, in order to avoid being sold out immediately, she behaved very submissively. In order to survive, she showed off her cooking skills and asked for a few days to adapt.
The original owner had the appearance of a little white flower. After this complaint, and because the bandits had arrested many people in the past few days, they had to behave themselves for a while. Moreover, her cooking skills were indeed good, which satisfied their appetite, so they did not touch her immediately.
This dragged on for two days until Yan Qiushu's reinforcements arrived.
only……
She couldn't go back to the original owner's home.
But in this feudal society, women are basically appendages. The original owner's era was relatively open and women could be established as households. But for a powerless woman, living alone in this era with gold and silver in hand, it was definitely the most difficult challenge.
Yan Qiushu was helpless, but she did not have any fighting power. Even in modern times, girls living alone are extremely dangerous, not to mention the ancient times when women had a low status. Did God send her here because he thought she was living too easily?
Actually, she really lived a happy life in her previous life.
Initially, because she couldn't stand the 007 work system of the internship unit, she chose to resign and return to her hometown to become a food anchor. Later, after gaining some traffic, she began to contract land, raise chickens, ducks, pigs, sheep and other animals, and grow her own vegetables to be self-sufficient. Instead, she became more and more popular. Every day, she only needed to film her daily life and cook some delicious food to make a group of office workers envious.
She was very satisfied with such days, but who knew that when she woke up, she found herself in a den of thieves. Yan Qiushu cried bitterly!
No one knows who inherited her huge manor!
Just as I was feeling miserable, I suddenly heard a startling cry from outside: "General! Where is my daughter? Isn't she here?"
"Rongrong..."
Hearing the familiar voice, the girls who were sitting anxiously stood up excitedly and shouted, "It must be my parents who came looking for me!"
"And my parents!"
The four girls spoke excitedly, then looked at the only person who remained silent and asked, "Ah Shu, are your parents here?"
Yan Qiushu pursed her lips and smiled, shaking her head: "Congratulations, go quickly."
The girls looked at her sympathetically, especially because of her cute and well-behaved appearance, and comforted her: "They must be late, don't worry, when you get home, I will invite you to come to my house to play."
"Yes, me too. My father can pick up all kinds of freshwater fish. I heard that the nobles in the capital love to eat them. When you come to my house, I will ask my father to prepare these for you!"
Among them, Zhao Shuhong, who had the best relationship with Yan Qiushu in the past two days, rubbed her head lovingly and said, "My sister lives in West Street, Wucheng. Her family has some foundation. If your family..." She paused and said, "Please send you to my place. If I have a bite to eat, you will have a bite too."
"Thank you, Sister Shuhong!" Yan Qiushu said with a smile.
At this time, there was a knock on their door.
One girl couldn't wait to open the door. When the door opened, a handsome young man in military uniform stood outside. This was General Xiao's personal soldier named Yan Xiang, who was in charge of greeting them these days.
"Miss Lin, Miss Zhang..." He called out four names in a row, which happened to be these four girls, and then said: "The general has invited your families, you can go back with them."
The girls knew what was going on, so they were not surprised at all. After saying goodbye to Yan Qiushu, they couldn't wait to go out: "Thank you, sir!"
"Please thank General Xiao for us..."
The girls went out one by one, and soon the noise outside disappeared. They were successfully picked up by their families. Only Yan Qiushu was left sitting alone in the house, eating melon seeds in a nonchalant manner.
Not to mention the melon seeds are quite fragrant, each one is full and delicious.
While eating, Yan Qiushu suddenly thought of something. She stopped cracking melon seeds. It seemed like someone just said that her father could catch all kinds of freshwater fish?
Are there a lot of freshwater fish in Wucheng?
This means that there are a lot of crabs and river shrimps in Wucheng. If there is no industrial pollution in the early days, there should also be freshwater lobsters and clams?
Speaking of food, Yan Qiushu becomes completely excited!
