Dressed as an old woman, I carry the system and my son to escape the famine
Chapter 45 Jealousy and Misunderstanding
Once this person started bragging, he would lose control easily, and Shen Nanshan would inevitably exaggerate a few words in a vague way, which would inevitably take the credit for Yao Shu.
He waited until afterwards to react, fearing that Yao Shu would be angry.
"You're right. Thanks to you for accompanying me on this trip. If I were alone, I might not be able to get it done."
Yao Shu was not stingy with her praise. In her opinion, Shen Nanshan also played a certain role. After all, it was not easy to have such a person who trusted her wholeheartedly.
Furthermore, Shen Nanshan is not without his merits.
He was obedient enough and didn't lose his temper at critical moments. Yao Shu was extremely satisfied with such a partner.
Hearing this compliment, Shen Nanshan's lips almost grinned to the back of his ears with joy.
Not long after, there was a burst of cheers from the crowd. It seemed that they had received the letter from the village chief. Infected by their emotions, Yao Shu's mood became extremely good.
Although her purpose was not entirely for them, seeing that what she was doing was meaningful gave her a sense of satisfaction.
Because they got the rare salt, everyone was very happy to pay for it this time. Those who really had no money also took out the food at home, and no one took advantage.
Who dares to take advantage of the Shen family? That family is not easy to get along with.
Soon, the village chief came back with a cloth bag filled with money and grain. He placed these things in front of Yao Shu.
"Sister-in-law, this is everyone's wish. You must accept it. If it's less, please don't be offended. You know everyone's situation. You will definitely repay this kindness in the future."
"Everyone is welcome. We are all members of Zhuangzi. It is appropriate for everyone to help each other."
Yao Shu said politely, but her body honestly reached out and took the things.
Her movements were so natural, and she didn't even refuse politely. The village chief couldn't help but was stunned for a moment. He didn't know why, but he always felt something strange.
At this time, the two people looked at each other, and Yao Shu quickly changed the topic.
"I also brought back some good news when I went to the city this time."
"what news?"
The village chief was quickly fooled by Yao Shu. All he could think about was good news. In his mind, there was no better news than getting salt.
"We can continue heading north tomorrow."
"Go up the mountain and go through? Do you want to wait?"
It's not the last minute yet. The village chief doesn't want to take the risk. It's too dangerous to cross the cliff. Moreover, they just got the salt, so they can wait a little longer. There is no need to be so urgent.
"Not up the mountain."
"How to get there?"
The village chief was a little confused. He couldn't understand the meaning of Yao Shu's words.
Regarding the issue of everyone's escape in Zhuangzi, he was very concerned about it and interrupted Yao Shu's words excitedly several times.
If not, Yao Shu would have told the reason of the matter long ago, but now she is very helpless.
"I went to the city this time to find some connections. We can borrow a road from Tianxia Town to cross there, but the speed is very fast. We have to leave before dawn. We can't stop in the middle, and we can't let others know about it."
She knows Miss Li's concerns, so she must not make a big deal about this matter, otherwise she will be in trouble.
Because this matter was of great importance, she emphasized it to the village chief several times, but for some reason, she always felt that the village chief was a little distracted, and even made her feel that the other person was in a state of mind.
"village head?"
She shouted at the top of her voice.
Shen Nanshan's whole body trembled, and then he moved closer to Yao Shu excitedly.
"Sister-in-law, what you just said is true? Did they really agree? Can we really borrow a way?"
The village chief was in a daze. He felt like this was pie in the sky. He couldn't believe it.
The gates of Tianxia Town are so tightly guarded, but Yao Shu can still find a connection. This is really unbelievable, and it seems impossible even if you think about it.
He stared at Yao Shu with his eyes, not missing the slightest change on her face. As long as the other party was lying, he would definitely be able to tell.
But before he could answer, he was dragged to the ground from behind.
"What are you doing? Bullying my wife, right? Even if you are the village chief, you can't do such a thing."
Shen Nanshan was quite angry. He just walked around outside and turned around to find that the village chief was almost touching his old woman. No man could bear such a thing.
"What are you doing? What nonsense are you talking about!"
Yao Shu was very angry at this sudden turn of events. She didn't want to be gossiped about. If this kind of thing was revealed, it wouldn't take long for people to spread the word. of.
She didn't want to hear those bad words.
At this time, the village chief also reacted and hurriedly explained.
"Brother Shan, you misunderstood. My sister-in-law and I are discussing business. It's definitely not what you think."
There are certain things that cannot be said carelessly, and his innocent reputation cannot be ruined. He has no such idea in the conscience of heaven and earth.
"Humph!"
Shen Nanshan wanted to say something, but when he received Yao Shu's warning look, his momentum immediately weakened.
After calming down, he also knew that the two were discussing business, but he still felt very sad.
"Okay, please stop making trouble. We still have serious things to do. We will prepare to enter the city before dawn tomorrow. We have to pack everything now."
After such a commotion, Yao Shu couldn't say anything more to the village chief, as everything that needed to be said had already been said.
"Village Chief, tell everyone about this secretly as soon as possible, so that no one else knows about it."
She was really afraid that the news would be revealed. There were too many people who were cornered outside the city gate and wanted to enter the city. She didn't want to be targeted by these people.
"Okay, don't worry, I guarantee you won't make any mistakes."
In order to do this, the village chief kept walking among the crowd, telling everyone the news individually, and giving many instructions every time.
After doing this, he gathered everyone together.
"Everyone has remembered what I just said. If anyone fails to catch up tomorrow, don't blame everyone for waiting for you. This opportunity only comes once..."
The village chief talked a lot, and at the end he looked in the direction of Yao Shu and said solemnly.
"Thanks to Yao Shu, we have such an opportunity to escape. Everyone has heard clearly. If you have a conscience, you can accept this responsibility."
