Quick Wear: The Crazy Boss Becomes a Cannon Fodder Female Match

Just as people were working non-stop to dry the grain to sell to Xu Yue, rumors spread in the town that a locust plague had broken out in Qi State, and that everyone was suffering and would soon bring disaster to them.

When the people who were still thinking about selling grain heard this, they were shocked. No matter whether it was a natural disaster or a man-made disaster, grain was the most important thing. They didn't sell all of the grain, but because Xu Yue offered a high price, they sold part of it for household use.

The price Xu Yue offered was not as high as they had imagined, and there was a locust plague, so they immediately tightened their food supplies and ran away. The remaining people who had not yet collected the food also hurried to collect the food just in case.

Xu Yue was stunned when she saw this situation. "That bastard leaked the news. I'm so mad at him."

Fortunately, no one knows when the locust plague will come, and no one knows her motives. Now she just has to wait for the barbarians to finish robbing the village, and she can still make a fortune.

This time, because of the news of the locust plague, the villagers collected food in advance. After the barbarians outside the border heard about it, they also made plans in advance and came to rob the border in advance. Xujia Village, as the first small village on the border, became the target of robbery.

As for when they would come, she knew it when Xu Yueru gave Jiuge a lot of money in her previous life and asked her to go to the town to help her transport food.

She took the opportunity to extort a lot of money from Xu Yue before she agreed to go out and collect food for her.

In order to trick her to death, Xu Yue had no choice but to bear the pain and cut off her own flesh. She watched Jiuge and Lin Huaiqing leave, and that night asked the Xu family to pack up and flee to the military camp at the border. The Xu family had become much lazier after being fed by Xu Yue, and they didn't want to move.

Xu Yue was speechless. If she hadn't thought they were still useful, she would have split up the family long ago. Now it was their turn to hold her back. She said:

"Just listen to me. I got news today that the village is not safe anymore. I will take you to a good place. I promise it will be a thousand times better than home. You should pack up and leave. If you don't leave, I will leave by myself and I won't care about you anymore."

Although the Xu family was dissatisfied, they could not do without her at home, so they could only follow her reluctantly.

Xu Yue still wanted to go next door and take all the food from the Lin family, but when she saw that the lights were on in the Lin family’s house, she gave up the plan.

Xu Meng knew that her niece was unusual. She had changed since she had a serious illness. She had very good luck and met many dignitaries. She felt that she knew something, so she was in a hurry to leave.

She didn't say anything, just packed up her things and left.

Some family members asked: "What about the people in the village? Shouldn't we remind them?"

Xu Yue's face froze for a moment, and she said, "Oh, it's too late. Others are still waiting. Let's go quickly."

Old Lady Xu also said: "Why bother with them? What if nothing happens and these people still don't appreciate it? Anyway, these people are not good to us, so if they die, they die, especially the old woman from the Lin family, ugh!"

The Xu family left, and Jiuge also arrived in the town. Lin Huaiqing asked Jiuge: "Xiaojiu, isn't this the place to get food?"

Jiuge arrived at the gate of the county government office and said, "I didn't plan to bring food to her."

"Ah! Why, didn't you take all her money?"

Jiuge: "This is not good money, this is our life-saving money."

Lin Huaiqing didn't understand that Jiuge had already struck the drum to inform the public. When the people heard the drum, they knew there was something to watch and they all ran out to watch the fun.

Lin Huaiqing was so scared by Jiuge's trick that he almost died. He panicked and said, "Xiaojiu! What are you doing? Are you crazy? Why are you beating the drum in the middle of the night? Be careful that the county magistrate will blame us and we will lose our lives."

Jiuge said calmly: "Don't worry, it's okay. On the contrary, we will have a big reward."

The county yamen runner opened the gate upon hearing the drumbeat and said unhappily, "What are you doing so late at night? Why can't you say it in the morning? Don't you realize that you are disturbing the county magistrate's rest?"

The county magistrate also came out in his clothes and asked, "Why are you beating the drum in the middle of the night? What's the injustice?"

Lin Huaiqing thought for a long time but still didn't know what grievances they had. Jiuge said hurriedly, "My lord, this is bad. I heard that the barbarians are going to attack our village tonight and steal our food!"

The county magistrate and Lin Huaiqing stumbled and almost fell down. The county magistrate looked panicked and said, "What nonsense are you talking about? General Zhao has been guarding the border all the time. How could he let the barbarians in?"

The residents of the town were also very panicked. Although there were soldiers guarding the border, there was still the possibility that the barbarians would attack. In addition, it was the autumn harvest time, so there was no guarantee that the barbarians would really attack.

Jiuge said: "It's absolutely true. You know Xu Yue from Xu Ji. She has connections with the border. I just heard her say that her family has already fled. Sir, you can't help but believe it."

These two people used the common people as a target to make a name for themselves, but she refused to let them do so.

The county magistrate had heard of Xu Yue's name. After all, the food she cooked was very much to his taste, and he had taken extra care of her. He also knew that she had a private relationship with the man at the border, so he had to believe Jiuge's words.

He asked, "Are you sure you're not lying?"

Jiuge: "I guarantee with my life that the Xu family has already escaped. I am risking my life to inform you. Sir, we should make preparations early and fight the enemy together!"

The guard's legs went weak, "Sir, what should we do? Should we notify General Zhao?"

Jiuge said: "It's too late. The barbarians are attacking by surprise. They entered the city from the river. We might as well wait for them with great fanfare. This way, they will think we are well prepared and will definitely run away."

Jiuge spoke so confidently that the county magistrate had no choice but to believe him. He said, "You'd better tell the truth, otherwise I will punish you after tonight."

He sent people to inform the border guards, asked those who were watching the fun to go home and make preparations early, and distributed all the weapons in the government office.

Seeing such a scene, Lin Huaiqing was frightened like a quail, trembling and said: "Xiaojiu, are you telling the truth? If you are lying, our family will be finished."

He had already decided where he wanted to bury her, but it was a pity that Yue Niang was implicated again just after she got married. It seemed that they were really not destined to be together and could only be husband and wife in the next life.

Jiuge interrupted his wild thoughts and said, "Don't let your imagination run wild. Take the knife back quickly and inform the villagers to prepare for defense."

The government also sent people to follow Jiuge to Xujia Village. After confirming that all the Xu family members had left, the government officials asked the village chief to notify the villagers to make preparations and wait for the arrival of the barbarians.

When the Lin family heard about Jiuge, they felt like the sky was falling. "Oh my God, Lin Jiuge, do you know what you are doing? If you lie, our family will suffer with you. Have you considered the consequences?"
