"200,000 popularity points now is nothing to the host," said the system.
Shi Wuqing wiped her tears: "Wow, don't remind me it's 200,000!"
"……"system.
Shi Wuqing was actually just pretending to cry, but a woman next to her misunderstood.
Although she was also very scared, she still whispered to Shi Wuqing: "It's okay, don't worry, we won't die... If we are lucky, we can live a relatively rich life."
Shi Wuqing was caught off guard by being comforted. She was stunned for a moment, then she looked up at the woman.
The woman was a few years older than her, her clothes were tattered, her face was equally dirty, and she was very thin, but she had a different temperament from the other women.
Except for Shi Wuqing who came here to commit fraud, most of the other women were wanderers who had suffered family changes or became homeless in the war. The few young ladies with good family backgrounds who were forcibly abducted were all locked up alone in a carriage.
Because Shi Wuqing was a monster and didn't want to be too conspicuous, she had thrown away all her valuables long ago. Naturally, she was excluded from the ranks of wealthy ladies.
I heard that those young ladies can redeem their men as long as their families have enough money. If not... they will end up like them.
But at least there is some hope, so I won’t collapse completely.
The people in the two carriages, including Shi Wuqing, were all at the mercy of others... So, ever since she got on the carriage, the atmosphere inside had been very depressing. Many women lowered their heads and cried silently, and those who didn't cry were trembling all over, filled with despair.
Everyone is busy taking care of themselves and no one is in the mood to care about others.
However, this woman not only comforted Shi Wuqing, but also pointed out that "if you are luckier, you can live a relatively affluent life"!
——She knew what they would face!
"Do you know something?" Shi Wuqing also replied in a low voice so that others could not hear.
Seeing this, a hint of surprise flashed across the woman's expression. Obviously, she had not expected Shi Wuqing's reaction.
"Those of us with good looks and figures will be sold to the rich and powerful to serve them. Those who are not so good... will also be sold to brothels. No matter what, we are still alive."
The woman approached her and whispered.
"How do you know?"
"When they arrested me before, I knew I couldn't resist, so I pretended to be unconscious. This is what I heard when I was pretending to be unconscious."
The woman replied with extraordinary patience.
She herself couldn't explain why there were so many people crying in the car, but she just wanted to comfort the one in front of her and was willing to tell her the news.
"Thank you." The girl, who was obviously a few years younger than her, thanked her softly.
She showed no sign of panic or humiliation, but rather a relatively calm look.
The woman couldn't help but say, "With your looks and figure, you can definitely marry into a better family. When the time comes, as long as you submit and be submissive, your life will be easy... Don't worry."
"...Yeah." Shi Wuqing didn't expect that while following the plot, she would meet such a kind person.
The two soon stopped talking because their conversation had attracted the attention of the people around them.
This kind of news is not suitable to be told directly, otherwise it is likely to cause trouble.
The carriage traveled for more than a month and finally arrived at its destination that day.
All the women were driven off the carriage. They looked around in panic and found themselves being taken to a large courtyard.
"Stand still!" a man threatened, holding a long whip.
The women were silent as a mouse, standing apart and not daring to make any more moves.
Soon, several people brought over a basin of water.
"Wash my face clean!"
No one dared to resist, and the women all lined up to wash their faces.
The woman who had spoken to Shi Wuqing was named Yang Xian. She was in the queue in front of Shi Wuqing. After she washed her face, the woman standing at the front of the courtyard looked her over and said, "Your figure is okay, but your appearance is just okay. Go stand over there."
Yang Xian stood over with her head lowered and her eyes submissive.
The next one is Shi Wuqing.
She knew that according to the plot, she would be chosen to be one of the dancers at the banquet soon - of course, when she said "dancer", she actually meant "dancing" with a purpose - but she still couldn't help feeling a little nervous.
I hope the plot doesn't go astray.
Everyone's eyes were on Shi Wuqing. She pursed her lips and washed her face quietly.
The courtyard fell into a brief silence.
The woman in the separate line looked at Shi Wuqing for a while, then turned her head and looked at the other person, then laughed out loud: "What's your name?"
Shi Wuqing made up a fake name: "My name is Song Zhaodi."
The woman frowned immediately: "That's too ugly! From now on, you can be called Song Qingqing!"
“?” Shi Wuqing.
ah?
Just...using the word "Qingqing" precisely?
She: “Okay…Okay.”
