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

Xiangwu had just finished his meal and after filling his stomach with a few mouthfuls, Yao Shu and others went to the official road and waited, just to block the purchasers, for fear of missing them.

The time spent waiting on the roadside is naturally unbearable, especially since the weather today is not very good, with the north wind blowing and it is very cold.

Because they didn't know when the buyers would return to the city, they could only prepare early and keep an eye on it.

After an hour or two passed like this, Shen Fugui couldn't stand it anymore and acted coquettishly towards Yao Shu.

"Mom, I don't know when these people will come. Let me accompany you to sit next to them. The big stone can also block some wind."

"Ha, I think you just want to be lazy. You always use your mother as a cover."

Shen Bei snorted. He just didn't like Shen Fugui's style. He always coaxed his mother to be lazy without replying. Fortunately, he was still a man.

"What nonsense are you talking about? I'm doing this all for my mother's sake. It's not like you are worried about whether your mother will catch a cold due to the wind."

Shen Fugui didn't feel embarrassed at all after being stabbed by his third brother. He had long been accustomed to it.

Seeing the two brothers quarreling, Yao Shu felt a headache. What was the cause of the quarrel? She glared at Shen Fugui, wondering what the other party's plan was, and she would not be deceived.

Only the original owner was deceived by his younger son every time.

"You all just stay here and no one wants to be lazy."

After being warned by her, the Shen brothers finally became honest. No matter how cunning they were, they did not dare to really make Yao Shu angry.

The group of people continued to wait near the official road. They waited for another hour or two before they heard the sound of a carriage approaching.

"Mom, someone is coming."

Shen He immediately stood up straight and looked at the other end of the official road excitedly.

They had been outside the city for so long. Except for the people who went out of the city to buy things every day, almost no other carriages passed by the official road.

By this time, those who were blocked outside the city were all poor refugees. The wealthier families had already received the news and fled early.

"I know. Don't talk nonsense later. If you offend someone, no one will even think about entering the city."

Yao Shu warned her very seriously.

They only have this one chance, and they have spent a lot of money on it, so they must not fail.

Yao Shu and the village chief stood nervously by the road. They reached out and pulled off their clothes in a tacit understanding, hoping that this would make them look a little more respectable.

People rely on clothes and horses rely on saddles. She is not much different from a refugee even now, but at least she shouldn't make people feel disgusted.

As the carriage gradually approached, Yao Shu could not help but feel a little nervous.

Estimating the time, she rushed to the middle of the road to force the carriage to stop. She had no choice but to shout and yell at him without any effect.

"Are you looking for death? Where is this woman from? Quickly get out of the way."

The coachman quickly pulled on the reins. When he thought that someone was almost killed under his own hands, his attitude was very bad.

It's so unlucky to see blood like this, and he will be despised by his master, and he may not be able to keep the good job he finally got.

When a happy event for the master's family is approaching, it is the time when these things are most taboo.

"Master, don't be upset, I have something good to tell you."

Yao Shu kept her posture very low. She knew her current situation very well. She had to bow her head when it was time to bow her head. There was nothing shameful in this.

"Your Excellency has a lot. Don't be ignorant of us. Please stop for a moment and listen to what we have to say."

The village chief was standing by to help him talk. He felt very unsure and could only watch Yao Shu act.

The coachman glanced at them. He was very proud of being held up by others, but before he could say anything, a voice came from the carriage behind him.

"Why don't you leave quickly? Can you afford to be blamed for the delay?"

Manager Lin said dissatisfied.

He didn't like these refugees outside the city. Even if he just passed by, he could smell the sour smell.

"What you taught me is to leave now."

The coachman's face hardened, and after nodding and bowing in agreement, he immediately raised his whip and prepared to move forward.

But at this time, the woman blocking the front had not yet left. Just when the coachman didn't know what to do, Manager Lin impatiently opened the curtain and urged.

"Don't worry about these refugees. If they want to die, just let them die."

"Wait a minute, I have a treasure for your lady."

Yao Shu shouted quickly.

She was afraid that if she was slow to speak for a second, the carriage would rush towards them. This was not impossible. Human life was worthless these days.

"Oh, as long as you have any treasure, just treat it as a treasure, let alone a piece of scrap metal. I have seen people like you too many to even want to enter the city gate."

Manager Lin said mockingly.

Since the city gates were closed, more and more people wanted to enter the city. Among them were many smart people, and some of them had ideas about Manager Lin, so he could see through Yao Shu's plan at a glance.

After being rejected directly, the village chief's face turned pale. He didn't dare to pester her anymore and tugged on Yao Shu's sleeves with his hands. It would be better for them to be sensible, but they must not really let the other party take action.

Seeing that Yao Shu had no intention of backing down, he hurriedly winked at Shen Nanshan, trying to persuade her.

"It's a priceless treasure. We were sent by the master's family to give Mr. Li a gift. We congratulate Miss Li on her son-in-law. Unfortunately, we encountered thieves on the road, so we lost the voucher and were blocked outside the door."

Yao Shu said nonsense seriously.

She made up all the information about the owner's family. If she really had such an identity, she wouldn't have spent so long outside the city.

She combined the information she got from the officers and soldiers guarding the city and told some truth and lies in order to deceive Manager Lin.

Other than that, she really couldn't think of any way to get past Manager Lin.

Although she really had a treasure, she couldn't take it out at this time. She couldn't trust the character of the steward and the coachman, and she was afraid that someone would snatch her away as soon as she took out the glazed phoenix hairpin.

That’s why I used the tiger skin to make a big banner.

"Are you telling the truth?"

Manager Lin was dubious about this matter. He looked Yao Shu up and down and found that she did not look like an ordinary peasant woman. Even though she was wearing coarse linen clothes, she had a certain air of dignity.

"There can be no lies. Even lying about this matter is useless."

"What treasure are you talking about?"

Manager Lin still couldn't believe it and looked irritated. How could he be involved in such a bad thing? No matter what he did, he had to bear the risk.

"The treasure is precious and can only be taken out when you go to Mr. Li's house."

There was no clue on Yao Shu's face, but her palms were full of sweat, and she was very nervous.
