Dressed as an old woman, I carry the system and my son to escape the famine

Fortunately, Yao Shu was still thinking about whether it would be bad for the whole family to come to the house, and she had to find a suitable reason. However, it turned out that she was wishful thinking, and no one wanted such a good opportunity.

The opportunity to appear in front of the general is something no one else could ask for. Once you catch this man's eye, you will have no way out.

The Shen family didn't care at all.

They also know their own abilities, which is almost as good as none. In their situation, even if they go to hang out in front of the general, they may not get any benefits, and they will be frightened.

Yao Shu could more or less guess what they were thinking, so she was not prepared to force him, but there was one person she was unwilling to let go.

"Third brother, don't you want to sell the sweet potatoes to the general's mansion? Don't you come with me?"

Now I want to do business with the General's Mansion. If I don't take this opportunity to visit, how long will it take?

Looking into Yao Shu's eyes, Shen Bei pursed his lips but was unable to say no. Thinking about it carefully, it would be safer to go out with his mother.

Not to mention anything else, just having Yao Shu standing beside him made him feel at ease.

"Go, but our family has too much food, why don't we let the eldest brother Hao and the second brother go with us?"

Shen Bei completely ignored the wishes of his brothers and just wanted to drag a few more people into the water.

It's a pity that his little plan is not so easy to realize. Yao Shu will not coddle Shen Bei. She will respect the wishes of the children. After all, forceful melons are not sweet. There is no need to force the Shen Qiu brothers together. go.

As for Shen Bei, this is something serious that cannot be delayed.

"No, as long as you come and explain the reason, the General's Mansion will naturally send someone to our village to collect food."

Yao Shu said confidently based on the importance the general attached to sweet potatoes.

The idea failed, and Shen Bei could only give up his little thoughts and sit quietly. Even so, he could not avoid being stared at by Shen Qiu and Shen He several times.

The next day came in a blink of an eye. The Shen family got up early. Yao Shu dressed up carefully and put on decent clothes. The same was true for Shen Nanshan.

People rely on their clothes and horses rely on their saddles, not to mention, they look much more energetic after tidying up like this.

"Father, mother, you look just like the ladies in the city, very majestic."

Shen Fugui never misses an opportunity to flatter anyone.

Yao Shu and Shen Nanshan both have good looks. They look tidy and don't look like they belong to farmers. The couple looks much younger than their peers in the village.

"Don't cause trouble at home, and don't go out and run around recently."

Yao Shu ignored Shen Fugui. She was also worried at this time. The last time she was alone with General Ling in private did not leave a good impression on her.

When getting along with this person, she had to be very alert, but she must not let anything slip or let the other person find out. The various magical things about her were not allowed to be known to outsiders.

If it weren't for the fact that she couldn't hide it, she wouldn't reveal anything even to Shen Nanshan.

Yao Shu, Shen Nanshan and Shen Bei, a family of three, walked towards Zhangzhou City. The General's Mansion was naturally in the city.

Along the way, there was a rare silence among everyone, which Yao Shu was not used to. In the past, Shen Nanshan and Shen Bei were talkative people, so how could they be so quiet.

"Lao San, what are you going to say when you get to the General's Mansion?"

Yao Shu wanted to say something else to divert her attention, and after asking her again, she would feel more at ease. The chance of the matter going wrong was low, but she was also afraid that Shen Bei would be careless.

Who said that what Shen Bei had done before was so indescribable.

When she suddenly asked, Shen Bei hesitated for a moment before speaking.

"Shouldn't you ask directly after arriving at the door?"

"Who are you going to ask?"

The General's Mansion is not a small household like theirs. As long as someone shouts at the door, the whole family can hear it clearly. Yao Shu asked with a strange expression.

"Are you going to ask the general directly?"

"No, it's nothing."

Even if Shen Bei did have this idea just now, he could never admit it now. He also realized how stupid his idea was.

What kind of person the general is, how could he have time to discuss such a small business with him? It is impossible to think about it.

"It's fine if you don't."

Yao Shu gave him a meaningful look and was not prepared to expose it, and she also said it smoothly.

"These trivial matters in the general's residence are taken care of by the butler, or the general's adjutants, personal guards, and the like."

She didn't know much, so she just told everything she knew, but that alone was enough for Shen Bei to listen with interest, and even Shen Nanshan was very interested.

They have never been exposed to these before, but they are very curious.

An hour later, they arrived at the door of the General's Mansion. There was only one mansion in the whole alley, the General's Mansion. It looked so majestic that even Yao Shu was secretly speechless.

"Dear me, this looks much more impressive than the yamen. Look at the young man standing at the door. He is really energetic."

Shen Nanshan muttered softly.

He was also afraid of being overheard by the concierge of the General's Mansion. These people looked more intimidating than the government officials, and they had an evil aura about them.

"Talk less from now on."

Yao Shu warned that in the territory of the General's Mansion, even she must be extremely careful.

Seeing that she was so cautious and serious, Shen Nanshan and Shen Bei were as obedient as quails, not to mention how honest they were.

She walked closer and showed her token. The concierge immediately and respectfully invited the group to the living room. They also prepared good tea and snacks to receive them, and even the chief steward of the General's Mansion came to greet the guests in person.

"Please wait a moment, Mr. Shen and Mrs. Shen. The general is discussing matters in the study and will be back later."

"It doesn't matter, the general's business is more important."

Yao Shu didn't dare to have other thoughts. She sat on the chair very comfortably and tasted the snacks with interest.

The snacks on the coffee table were so exquisite that they couldn't even be bought outside. It was a rare opportunity for her to taste them.

Affected by her attitude, Shen Nanshan and Shen Bei also relaxed. They almost followed whatever Yao Shu did, which made Butler Ling look on with surprise.

There are many guests coming to the General's Mansion, but I have never seen people like the Shen family. They are happy and contented, nervous and serious, but it is rare to be so relaxed and scared.

If Butler Ling hadn't gotten the news earlier, he would have suspected the Shen family's origins.

Since the General's Mansion had plenty of various snacks and fruits, Yao Shu and others did not find the waiting time unbearable at all.
