After Her Divorce, She Escaped With A Strong Man To Farm

78 Chapter 78. Delayed Her Upgrade

When Ji Shuisheng and the others walked to the front to take a look, Li Daniu had fallen asleep with his hands on his cheeks. They didn’t know what delicious food he was eating in his dream, but saliva was dripping from the corner of his mouth.

“Still sleeping? We’ve lost all our food.”

Ji Shuisheng shouted beside Li Daniu’s ear. Li Daniu quivered and opened his eyes in confusion. He jumped up and raised his hand to hit him.

“Who told you to steal my food? I’ll beat you to death!”

Ji Shuisheng leaned back and dodged Li Daniu’s fist. He raised his hand and grabbed his wrist.

“It’s me. Would I have called you if I were really the one who stole the grain? They would have sneaked the food away long ago.”

Seeing that Ji Shuisheng was scolding him with a black face, Li Daniu quickly turned to look at the food in the cart. He should be beaten; he should be beaten. He only heaved a sigh of relief when he saw the food still in the cart. How did he fall asleep?

“I’m sorry, Shuisheng.”

This was the good thing about Li Daniu. If he were wrong, he would never quibble. His attitude was also perfect.

“Daniu, we won’t be so lucky every time. These grains are the lives of our entire village.”

Ji Shuisheng didn’t forgive Li Daniu just because he admitted his mistake. In the past, they were used to living a carefree life in Peach Blossom Cove, but after leaving there, they couldn’t be like before. First, they had to make Li Daniu feel responsible.

Today was a rare opportunity to let Li Daniu realize the severe consequences of being irresponsible.

“I know I was wrong. I’ll be more careful in the future and definitely won’t make such a mistake again.”

Li Daniu lowered his head in self-blame as if he had suddenly grown up. The Li Daniu of the past, who was undisciplined and unruly, now had some worries.

“Alright, rest for a while. Yongkang and I will go and buy some food.”

Seeing his good brother blaming himself, Ji Shuisheng couldn’t bear to teach him a lesson. He patted Li Daniu’s shoulder and let him sleep a little longer.

“I’m already full of energy. I’ll go with you to move the food.”

However, Li Daniu refused to sleep and followed behind Ji Shuisheng and Qiu Yongkang to make up for his mistake.

They went into the grain store to buy grain. Su Qing and Ji Xiaoying sat in the newly purchased carriage and waited. Ji Xiaoying touched the soft cushion under her butt and said to Su Qing happily, ”

“Sister, it’s so good to have a carriage.”

“You’re calling me sister again?”

Su Qing’s face darkened as she looked at Ji Xiaoying. Ji Xiaoying shrunk her neck and used her soft little hand to cover her mouth.

“Aiya, I should hit you. How did I forget again?”

Xiaoying, you keep an eye on her. I’ll buy some more things.

Ji Shuisheng and the rest had to delay by buying food, so Su Qing jumped off the carriage and instructed Ji Xiaoying.

“Okay, I promise I’ll take good care of it.”

Su Qing smiled as she jumped off the carriage. Her eyes curved into crescents as she nodded vigorously. Ji Xiaoying was happy to be entrusted with such an important task.

She had left some things at the relay station and had to rush back to get them. To hurry, she untied the big black horse and took the women’s clothes that old Qin had bought for her. With a beautiful flip, she jumped onto the horse’s back. Ji Xiaoying’s eyes sparkled as she looked at her. Sister is so awesome!

Su Qing wore a female outfit and rode a black horse back to the relay station. The relay manager had long known about the siege of the manor by the city guards. He also knew that old Qin had won a significant victory, so he was enthusiastic about Su Qing.

“Miss, if you have any orders, please tell us as soon as possible. It’s almost lunchtime. This official will send someone to do it. ”

“There’s no need. Old Qin is still working on a case in the magistrate’s office. I’ll leave after I get something,”

As Su Qing spoke, she went upstairs. The courier was stunned, but he did not catch up with her. He also had good judgment and did not continue to follow.

Su Qing returned to her room, folded her and Xiaoying’s old clothes, and brought them along. There were eight plates of Xiaoying’s favorite snacks on the table. There were originally ten plates, but two were given to Ji Shuisheng. Su Qing put all the snacks into the wicker basket and stacked the empty plates on the table. Then, she carried the wicker basket and the old clothes downstairs.

The courier station’s commander quickly came forward to greet her. Su Qing only nodded at him before she left the courier station with long strides.

The relay manager waved his hand at Su Qing’s back and said,

“Take care, young Miss.”

Su Qing rode her black horse back. When she passed the bun shop, she bought 20 meat buns and split them into four lotus leaves. She also bought ten roasted pork buns from the shop next door and brought them back to the entrance of the grain shop.

Ji Shuisheng and the rest had just finished loading the grain into the car, so she didn’t waste any time.

“Steamed bun!”

Su Qing threw a lotus leaf bun to Qiu Yongkang and another to Ji Shuisheng. Li Daniu looked at Su Qing with wide-open eyes, as cute as a giant panda.

“Here you go,”

Su Qing’s lips curled up at Li Daniu’s teasing. She threw him another lotus leaf bun. This time, the bun was big and heavy. Five buns were enough for a man.

“Thank you, Su Qing.”

Qiu Yongkang opened the Lotus leaf bun and saw that it was a white and fat bun. The alluring smell of meat wafted through the air, and he thanked Su Qing gratefully.

“Thank you! ” he said.

Li Daniu took half a bite of the bun and stuffed his mouth full. When he saw Qiu Yongkang thanking him, he vaguely thanked Su Qing.

Ji Shuisheng held the bun with mixed feelings. He didn’t agree to his sister’s plan to save Su Qing back then, fearing she would be a burden and slow down the escape.

However, Su Qing did not delay their progress; she also brought many benefits to the escape team, especially when she saved him and his tribesmen several times. contemporary romance

In comparison, he and Peach Blossom Cove owed Su Qing a considerable favor.

“Xiaoying, here you go.”

Su Qing didn’t look at Ji Shuisheng’s conflicted gaze. She opened the curtain, put the basket in it, and handed over her and Ji Xiaoying’s old clothes.

“I still need to go and buy some spices. Wait for me.”

Su Qing remembered that there were still things she had not bought, so she purchased some spices while the others were eating.

“Su Qing, I’ll pay for the condiments.”

...

Qiu Yongkang quickly swallowed the bun in his mouth and chased after Su Qing to pay.

The three men couldn’t always let Su Qing spend money. She had already made the three men feel bad by buying clothes for them.

Su Qing saw the determination in Qiu Yongkang’s eyes, so she didn’t object to him following her. She had to buy all the ingredients for the quest. Qiu Yongkang didn’t expect Su Qing to buy so many condiments, and he was pained to spend three taels of silver on them. However, since su Qing was buying the condiments for the entire village, he decided to pay the money without hesitation.

After buying everything that needed to be purchased, Ji Shuisheng left this place of trouble.

When they left the city, they found that the city guards had torn the shed used to give out porridge. The pots had been smashed, and the porridge was scattered all over the ground. The refugees who did not get to eat the porridge were crying and hugging each other. All the food had been taken away by them.

These dogs!

Ji Shuisheng’s eyes spewed out flames of anger as he clutched the carriage shaft tightly. If it weren’t for the responsibility on his shoulders, he would have slaughtered this group of dogs.

Su Qing looked at the progress of the system. Her merit points had stopped rising. It was probably because the city guards had overturned the porridge and refused to give it to the refugees.

Su Qing gritted her teeth. Those dogs were holding her up.

The villagers of Peach Blossom Cove hid very far away, but they did not leave and waited for Ji Shuisheng and the rest to come out. When they saw Ji Shuisheng and the rest come out with three carts of grain, the entire village was excited.

“Shuisheng, you only had one cart when you went there. Why are there two more carts?”
