Get the golden finger at the beginning: Enjoy the journey of escaping from the famine

Pei Yu sat in his room, trying to mobilize the little bit of internal strength in his body, but it was too little to be of any use.

I heard the noise of the Shen family returning outside, and opened my eyes. I had no idea what this family had been doing so early in the morning.

But it’s none of my business!

His injuries were almost healed, and Miss Shen was already asking him indirectly when he would leave.

Thinking of this, Pei Yu sat down at the table and painted an ink painting. He planned to have Miss Shen send it to the town tomorrow. It was time for him to leave.

Pei Yu opened the door and came to Shen Li, "Miss Shen, can you please help me deliver a letter?"

Shen Li looked up at him. This man was finally leaving!

Pei Yu understood the emotions in her eyes. He was also popular among the girls in the capital city in the past. Why was he so unwelcome in front of Miss Shen?

Shen Li took the envelope and said, "I'm not going to town tomorrow. Can I deliver it for you the day after tomorrow?"

"Yes, Miss Shen, please help me find a reliable escort agency to deliver the goods to this address, and I will pay you for it."

Pei Yu handed over another note. Shen Li opened it and saw that it was from a bookstore called Moxiangzhai in Jiangyang County.

"Are you anxious?"

"Also, will this letter reveal my home address?"

Pei Yu shook his head, his face full of seriousness, "Don't worry, Miss Shen, I'm not fully recovered yet, I won't do anything I'm not sure of."

"it is good."

It takes at least three days to travel from here to Jiangyang County. In that case, let's send the letter to him tomorrow.

"Master Wei, I suddenly remembered that I have something to do in town tomorrow, so I'll take the letter with me."

Pei Yu nodded with complicated eyes and said nothing.

It seems that my intuition was correct. Miss Shen really dislikes me!

Could it be that he thinks the compensation he gave is too little?

Shen Like didn't know what he was thinking, she just wanted to get rid of this big Buddha as soon as possible.

One day at home means one day of danger. Send it away quickly. Out of sight, out of mind.

The next morning, after morning training, Shen Li drove a mule cart to town.

The fields on both sides of Sanli Village are a little dry. It hasn't rained for a long time, and the leaves of the seedlings on the ground are turning yellow.

After walking for a while, you can see a villager standing by the field with a sad face.

There is a good river in Shanli Village, but the water is not deep and will not last long after a drought.

I'm going to town today, so I might as well buy a few more water jars to keep at home.

Shen Li arrived in the town and went to find the largest escort company. There was a trip going through Jiangyang County in the afternoon.

Shen Li handed over the envelope and gave one or two taels of silver as a fee for running errands.

Don’t mention it, it’s a bit expensive!

When Shen Li drove past the grain shop, she saw that the grain price had risen again. There were only three grain shops in the town, and the prices of all three were the same. If one shop adjusted its price, the other two would follow suit.

Now the price of brown rice has risen to 12 wen per catty. When I first bought it, the price was 80 wen per catty. Now a stone of old rice costs 50 wen, while it only cost wen before.

Despite this, there were still many people buying food at the grain shop. Shen Li bought 2 stone of brown rice and 2 stone of coarse noodles and did not buy anything else.

There is still food at home. I have bought a lot of it during this period. There are also many buns, steamed buns and the like in the space.

Shen Li drove the mule cart forward and when she saw steamed buns and steamed buns, she packed up all 200 steamed buns and 300 steamed buns on the stall.

When I saw a pancake stall, I bought all 200 pancakes there.

Shen Li did not buy any snacks or candied fruits. Instead, she bought three large water jars, put them in the mule cart and pulled them back.

It’s not that Shen Li doesn’t want to buy a few more, but the carriage can’t hold them all.

There seems to be a water boiler in the village. You can get it from the village when the time comes.

Shen Li drove the mule cart back home. Her three brothers came over to unload the things. When they saw the three large water vats, they were curious about what they were used for.

We have a well and two water tanks at home, so why did my sister buy three?

However, although they were curious, the three of them did not ask, as the little sister had her own uses for the things she bought.

When Shen Li saw her sister-in-law Xu Taohua, she suddenly remembered that when her sister-in-law was dragged away to block the knife, the book mentioned that her sister-in-law was pregnant?

What about now?

Shen Li looked at her sister-in-law's belly, wondering if she was pregnant now?

Shen Li came to Pei Yu's room, stood outside the door and said, "Master Wei, the letter will be delivered to Anyang County this afternoon."

The man's cold voice came from the room, "Thank you, Miss Shen."

After Shen Li said that, she found Shen Changshan again and said, "Dad, the price of brown rice in the grain shop in town has risen to 12 cents per pound, and the price of old rice has also risen to 70 cents."

Shen Changshan was shocked, "Why is it growing so fast?"

Shen Li shook her head, "Dad, go talk to the elders in the clan later."

"Dad will go now."

The Shen family is the largest group of people in Sanli Village, and the village chief is also surnamed Shen. Men of Shen Jingyuan's generation basically had their names given by the elders of the clan.

There are two scholars and an old juren in the Shen family. There is also a clan school. When he was young, the fourth brother Shen Qi'an also studied in the clan school.

Later, Grandpa Shen and Grandma Shen were afraid that their family would have a bright future, so they threw a tantrum and refused to allow Shen Qian'an to continue staying in the clan school.

Later, when he was a little older, Shen Changshan sent Shen Qian'an to the town school, but his grandfather and grandmother interfered again.

Shen Changshan and Lin Cuicui didn't know what was going on at that time. They seemed to have no temper at all and just did whatever Shen Dajiang and Yang Chunhong said.

……

After Shen Li finished speaking, she took the mule out to eat grass and saw a man dressed as a scholar standing not far from her home.

The man saw her come out and walked towards her. Shen Yu looked at his appearance and compared him with the number one person in her mind.

Jiang Huaichuan?

What is he doing here?

The young man was dressed in green, his black hair was held together only by a wooden hairpin. He was a little thin and had a scholarly air.

"Ali!"

Shen Li looked over and saw Jiang Huaichuan with a faint smile on his face, and his cold and distant eyes were tinged with a bit of tenderness.

"Mr. Jiang, although you are my future uncle-in-law, it is really inappropriate to call me that."

The smile on Jiang Huaichuan's face faded, and he looked at Shen Li in silence. He had heard before that Ali was injured and seemed to have soul-leaving syndrome, but he didn't quite believe it. Now he believes it a little bit.

In the past, Ali had always been very gentle and cautious, and would never speak in this tone.

"Ali, I said I would break off the engagement with your aunt."

Shen Li's mind was filled with question marks. She desperately flipped through the original owner's memories, worried that he really had some connection with this male protagonist?

But after looking through it several times, there was nothing special between the two of them, so why did Jiang Huaichuan look like this?

"Mr. Jiang, be careful with your words. Do you know how important a girl's reputation is?"

Dream on if you want to cancel the engagement!

The tragedy of the original owner's family in the book also has some shadows of Jiang Huaichuan. How can it be possible to enjoy the fruits of their labor without taking responsibility?

You will be tied to Shen Jiaojiao for the rest of your life. She wants to see how you are going to lead your family through the journey of escape safely without the golden finger and the help of the original owner's family.

Sensing the fierceness in the girl's eyes, Jiang Huaichuan frowned slightly, "But what did Shen Jiaojiao tell you?"

Shen Li didn't want to pay attention to him anymore and just kept saying some incomprehensible things.

"No, we have already separated. Shen Jiaojiao is not here. Turn right and go that way, and you will find her."

After Shen Li finished speaking, she led the mule to find grass, while Jiang Huaichuan stood there, watching Shen Li's back as she left.

After a long time, he turned and walked towards the village.
