Quick Transmigration: The host is super good!

Chapter 48 The Maid Who Traveled Across Time 16

After handing out the indentures and the silver, the two men unloaded the carriage, left the group of people behind, and rode away on horseback. Only when their backs could no longer be seen did everyone come to their senses.

"Miss, are you really leaving like this?"

"The master must be very angry. This woman ran away without knowing why. Even if she wants to come back in the future, her reputation will be ruined and her family will never accept it!"

"The Prime Minister's Mansion is so rich and powerful that it was lost just like that. What do you think she wants?"

"Who knows?" Chunlan rolled her eyes. "I think it was that bitch Xia Zhu who instigated this. The young lady is not in a clear mind. She will regret it in the future."

No one could figure out what Li Nanyue was thinking, but they all agreed that she would not have a good ending.

Some of them are family-born children who have been raised in the Li family since birth, while others were bought from outside. No matter which type, they have seen the miserable lives of the little people at the bottom of society.

Do you think being a slave in the prime minister's mansion and serving your master all day is hard? P! Being born in a peasant family, not having enough to eat since childhood, rolling in the mud all day, and having to hand over most of the money in the end, what you get is not enough to even support your whole family, that's what real hardship is.

If they had a headache or a fever, even the doctor would not see them. If they were unlucky enough to encounter natural disasters or man-made calamities, it would be even worse. Many people watched their parents, siblings, starve to death, or were dragged away in the middle of the night, without even a skeleton left.

Compared with the precarious life of ordinary people, the Li family is simply a paradise.

"Young Miss is so naive. She thinks she can be free once she leaves home. With Xia Zhu's mentality, she might not be able to make ends meet one day and might even be sold off."

As everyone recalled the past, they felt that the eldest lady's future was increasingly bleak.

"Okay, don't say that she is no longer our master. Even if she is, it is not our turn as servants to worry about her. Why don't we think about what we should do next?"

While a group of people were whispering and discussing, Chen Yuan and the other person were also discussing where to go.

Li Nanyue didn’t know how to ride a horse. She sat in the front and was hugged by her friends. She felt that the sky was so blue, the grass was so green, and even the cold wind blowing on her face was slightly sweet.

She opened her arms, closed her eyes, and felt the taste of freedom. She said cheerfully, "Some of those people might go back to report the news. We have to leave here as soon as possible, the farther the better, so as not to be caught by the people sent by my father."

"Is there anyone who dares to go back?" Shen Yuan was slightly surprised. "They are not afraid of being punished by the Prime Minister. They may lose their lives."

“As the saying goes, it’s good to lean on a big tree for shade.” There are always people who are reluctant to give up the Li family’s wealth and want to take a chance, thinking that their father might give them a break because of their loyalty.” Although Li Nanyue is young, he knows the thoughts of the servants in the backyard very well.

Chen Yuan was a little curious: "Will the Prime Minister forgive them?"

"Half and half!" Li Nanyan was not sure. "Anyway, I have given them the opportunity. They chose their own path, so of course they have to bear the consequences themselves."

"Indeed." Chen Yuan found that the little girl was quite insightful, so he didn't dwell on the issue and said, "We don't have to rush, and we don't have to hide from anyone. You can go wherever you want."

Then, under her surprised eyes, he drove the horse to a small hill, took out a bunch of bottles and jars from the package, and smeared them on her face.

After looking around and being satisfied, she repeated the same process on her own face. In the blink of an eye, her appearance changed. Even Li Nanyue, who saw her face change with her own eyes, could not recognize her.

"It's amazing..." The little girl wanted to touch it, but she was afraid of ruining her makeup, so she only dared to point at it from a distance, "Is this the disguise technique written in the storybook?"

"Yeah." Shen Yuan nodded, holding her hand and pressing it, "Touch it if you want, it won't hurt."

After more than ten years of wandering around the world, she has learned a lot of things. Although this is the first time she has used the disguise technique, she is confident in her ability.

Since she said so, Li Nanyan was not polite. Not only did she touch it, she also pulled it off... Eh? It didn't fade, and it felt just like the real thing, with no trace of smearing at all.

This is a bit much.

Chen Yuan ruthlessly slapped away her increasingly presumptuous claws: "It will hurt."

"Ah! Sorry." Li Nanyue realized what she had done and apologized quickly, "I... I was just too surprised..."

"It's okay." Shen Yuan nodded indifferently and threw a bundle to her, "Go change."

She took off her maid's clothes, changed into men's clothes, and then untied her hair and tied it up again. In the blink of an eye, she turned into an ordinary young man.

Li Nanyan changed into a rough, simple-style skirt and came out. Seeing her new look, she pouted unhappily: "I want to wear men's clothes too..."

"No," Shen Yuan refused immediately, "You don't look manly at all. Dressing up as a man will attract too much attention. You don't want people to stare at you, do you?"

Li Nanyan certainly didn't want to attract attention, but she was very unconvinced: "Why don't I look like a man? I don't think you look much like one!"

This is pure nonsense. Shen Yuan is taller than the average woman, with a thin waist and long legs. He stands there with his head held high and his chest puffed out, looking exactly like a teenager.

She didn't argue, just nodded her chin and said, "Take a few steps and see."

"Let's go!" Li Nanyue snorted, and took big strides, recalling the way her father walked. However, years of habit were hard to change, and her waist twisted unconsciously. She also noticed the problem and tried to change, but the result was a mess, and she almost couldn't walk.

"Ah--"

Shen Yuan couldn't help but laugh out loud, thinking that the little girl was really interesting and it was worth the effort she had put into her.

But the girl herself didn't find it funny at all. Li Nanyan puffed up her cheeks and almost got angry like a pufferfish: "I'll practice a few more times, and I'll learn it sooner or later. Then I can pretend to be a man every day!"

"Ahem—" Shen Yuan covered his lips, "I believe you..."

Liar! She was clearly trying to hold back her laughter, so she definitely didn't believe it.

Li Nanyue got angry, stomped her feet heavily, turned around and walked ahead.

Ah this...

Chen Yuan was not good at coaxing people, so he had to touch his nose and follow behind obediently. When passing by the horse, he snorted hard, as if he was laughing, but no one knew who he was laughing at.

However, this cold war did not last long. The little girl accidentally stepped on a stone and almost fell. Chen Yuan quickly stepped forward to help her up, and the two of them reconciled.

"Since we are not afraid of being discovered, why don't we stay in the capital for a few more days?" Li Nanyue looked into her clear eyes and shrank her neck guiltily. "I have lived in the capital for several years and I haven't really gone out to play. I heard that there is a fish restaurant in the west of the city that is delicious..."
