The eldest sister was reborn and the younger sister traveled through time. I just want to survive.

What Yuechan remembers most from her childhood is her aunt's sharp and harsh scolding. She not only scolded her, but also her deceased mother, and said that she and her mother were as stupid as geese and had nothing good except their looks.

My aunt often said that her mother could use her looks to seduce men, but she didn't even have looks anymore, and if she didn't work hard she could only be an ugly and stupid evil ghost.

She was stupid and slow to learn, so she deserved to be scolded and beaten. But she couldn't understand why her aunt also beat and scolded her smart cousin. Many times, her cousin was beaten by her aunt until he couldn't get up.

Once, her cousin was beaten so hard that his bones were broken. She asked him, "Do you hate your aunt?"

The cousin smiled and said to her, "Don't hate me. I deserve everything I've suffered. It's also my duty to seek justice for the Wu Yue tribe... Don't hate me!"

Her cousin said those words to her with a smile, but she still saw the grievance in his smiling eyes.

People are all made of flesh and blood. My cousin may not hate others when he is beaten and abused for no reason, but how can he not feel wronged?

Later, when they grew up, their aunt no longer beat or scolded them, but sent them on the road of revenge that had been arranged long ago. They lived like walking on thin ice every day, which was even more unbearable than the days when they were beaten and scolded when they were young.

Fortunately, everything is about to end. No matter whether they live or die in the end, they can bid farewell to the heart-wrenching days of living on the edge of a knife.

In early February, Manager Wu's cargo ship docked at the pier, and Yan Muxi invited him to the City Lord's Mansion to discuss matters.

Hearing that Yan Muxi wanted to buy grain, Manager Wu readily agreed, "The grain price in Jiangnan is relatively stable now. The Qian family has a grain merchant that they have cooperated with for many years. If the order quantity is large, the price can be pushed down to the lowest. Miss, please write down the types of grain you need. Next time we go out on the ship, I will go ashore and take care of this matter."

"Uncle Wu misunderstood. I don't want to buy some food, I want to buy a lot, and also cloth and cotton." Yan Muxi explained.

"Buy a lot? How much does the lady want to buy?" Manager Wu was a little confused. The cargo ship was so big that even if it was full, it couldn't hold a lot of food.

"Buy as much as you can, including coarse grains, fine grains, and mixed grains."

After hearing what Yan Muxi said, Manager Wu was amused. "No matter how much we buy, we have to have a limit. We can't buy all the grain in Jiangnan!"

Yan Muxi handed over a piece of paper with words written on it, "Let's order 500,000 shi first!"

"How much?" Manager Wu thought he had misheard. Five hundred thousand dan of grain was enough to feed all the people on Hua Island for ten years.

Yan Muxi repeated, "The first batch will be 500,000 dan, with 30% coarse grains, 50% fine grains, and 20% miscellaneous grains. If it's not enough later, I'll buy more according to the situation."

"Miss, you bought the grain for other purposes, right?" Manager Wu came to his senses. Nowadays, Flower Island can grow a lot of crops. Although the harvest is not as good as that on land, it is barely enough to be self-sufficient. There is no need to buy large quantities of food from outside.

Yan Muxi did not deny it. "I do have other uses for buying grain. In addition to grain, I also need to buy cloth, cotton, and medicinal herbs. A rough list has been made on the paper. Uncle Wu, take a good look at it and see how much money it will take to buy all the things on it."

After reading the list, Manager Wu was so shocked that he spoke for a long time. "The war in the north has not affected Jiangnan. The grain price in Jiangnan is relatively stable. The amount of grain listed on the lady's list is enough for 300,000 taels. But the price of cotton cloth and medicinal materials is not cheap. Buying them all will cost at least 3 million taels of silver."

Yan Muxi nodded to show that she understood. She thought about it and then instructed Manager Wu.

"I will go out to sea with Uncle Wu in two days. When we arrive in Jiangnan, Uncle Wu will introduce me to a few reliable grain merchants, cloth merchants, and medicinal materials merchants. I don't want to use the Qian family's way for this business."

Due to the war between the two countries, the price of goods in the north of Dafeng has doubled. Although it costs a lot to transport grain from Jiangnan to the north, it is much more cost-effective than buying it directly in the north. In addition, the north is extremely short of food now, and it is impossible to buy enough food even if you want to.

Upon learning that Yan Muxi was going to leave the island again, Qian Chongguang and Minghui took turns scolding her.

An An and Kang Kang seemed to sense that they were about to be separated, and they became more attached to her than before, especially Kang Kang, who followed her closely every day, and the first thing he did when he woke up was to look for her.

While the two kids were sleeping, Yin Xia reluctantly advised, "Miss, do you have to leave? Is there anyone or anything more important to you than An An and Kang Kang?"

"It's not a question of whether it's important or not, but some things must be done." Seeing Yinxia frowning and not saying anything, Yan Muxi took her hand and coaxed her, "This is the last time I'll rush around. When I come back, I'll never leave you again."

Yinxia couldn't stand her like this. She felt very uncomfortable but was still thinking about comforting others. "How long will you be gone this time, Miss? It won't be longer than the last six months, right?"

"Yinxia, ​​why have you become like a child? You still insist on making a promise. No matter how long I'm gone, can it be longer than a lifetime?" Yan Muxi was vague and didn't give a direct answer, because she didn't know how long she would be away this time.

Yin Xia sniffed and suppressed her tears, "Miss, remember to come back early. Always remember that we are all thinking about you! Don't have too much fun outside and forget the people at home who are eagerly waiting for your return."

"Don't worry, my most important relatives are here. I can't forget you even if I forget myself. Don't just nag me. Yinxia, ​​you have to help me take care of the children and grandpa. Don't be distracted by thinking about others. Do you hear me?" Yan Muxi joked with a smile.

Yin Xia rolled her eyes at her in anger, "What do you think of others? I won't learn from you, young lady!"

The smile on Yan Muxi's face faded, "Dongyu told you everything?"

Yinxia nodded, "Yes, I said it all."

After a moment of silence, Yan Muxi defended herself, "I'm not doing this entirely for him."

"I know, I am the person who knows the young lady best in this world. Although the young lady has not been very ambitious since childhood, she is very proud in her bones, and no one is worthy of the young lady to pay for them." Yinxia looked like my young lady was the most awesome and best in the world.

Yan Muxi was amused. She opened her mouth to say something in response, but in the end she couldn't say anything.

She considers herself a cold-hearted person. She has never done anything kind since she was a child and always puts herself first in everything.

Now she is busy regardless of the cost, but she can't tell whether it is more for herself or for others.

Two days later, Yan Muxi took Dongyu, Shunzi and others to leave the island again, along with Minghui.

Minghui made the decision to leave the island with Yan Muxi in the morning. She said that she couldn't let go of the affairs of Xiaoxiang Pavilion and wanted to go back to Jinling to take a look.

In fact, it was because I had a nightmare last night. I dreamed that Yan Muxi was imprisoned in an iron cage like an animal.

After thinking about it for half the night, she felt uneasy no matter how she thought about it, so she decided to stay with Yan Muxi to protect her safety.

When the cargo ship docked in Chaoyang City, the group of people, dressed in disguise, got off the ship in a low-key manner.
