Quick Wear: The Daily Showmanship of the Face-Slapping Maniac

The first ray of sunlight in the east slowly rose, the hazy mist in the air began to dissipate quietly, and the clear and clear bird calls came from the branches not far away in twos and threes.

By the small river outside Liujia Village, a lame girl who recognized her relatives came.

"Sister-in-law, do you know Liu Dahai?"

Mrs. Liu, who was washing clothes by the river, heard the reputation and saw a girl in rags looking at her earnestly and asking.

But Liu Dahai?

Mrs. Liu thought about it for a while, but she had never heard of this name before. She shook her head: "I've never heard of this person in the village, girl, did you find the wrong place?"

The lame girl is Mingyue.

Mingyue's eyes showed disappointment, she staggered suddenly, and murmured in despair: "How could I find the wrong one? Isn't this the Liu Family Village? Auntie told me clearly that my uncle lives in the Liu Family Village." ..."

Villages in this world are mostly named after their surnames. The most common surnames such as Liujia Village, Zhoujia Village, and Wangjia Village are almost everywhere.

So Mrs. Liu didn't doubt Mingyue's words, she just thought that the village where her uncle lived was also called Liu's Village.

So Mrs. Liu kindly reminded her, "Walk five miles ahead, and there is Liu's Village. Miss, why don't you go to that Liu's Village and ask?"

"Okay, I see, thank you sister-in-law." Mingyue wiped her tears with the back of her hand, turned around and took two steps, and fell to the ground with an "ah".

"Ouch." Seeing this, Mrs. Liu hurriedly threw her clothes into the basin and came to help her.

"Eh? Girl, are you okay?" Mrs. Liu asked with concern while holding Mingyue's arm.

Mingyue covered her belly and her ears turned red, she lowered her head in embarrassment and said, "I, I haven't eaten for two days."

"Ah!" Mrs. Liu suddenly realized, no wonder, she was hungry.

Seeing how pitiful she looked, Mrs. Liu hesitated for a moment, and finally said: "Miss, why don't you go to my house to rest and have a drink of hot water?"

Mingyue's lowered eyes moved, she pursed her lips and nodded: "Then please trouble sister-in-law."

Mrs. Liu's family is not rich, there are only two mud-walled tile-roofed houses, but there are five children in the family, big and small. Seeing A Niang coming back with a strange woman, all of them ran over to watch the fun .

Among them were two children that Mingyue had met outside the village before, and they mentioned it when they quarreled with the children from the next village in Liujia Village, which suddenly moved Mingyue's mind.

In the past two years, Song State and Wu State did not fight each other, but small battles continued, especially the villages on the edge of small border towns like Fengcheng, where innocent people were repeatedly affected.

Together with the war, it is the people who are suffering, and now there are more and more refugees, and the role played by Mingyue now is the poor orphan girl who was displaced and came to join her uncle.

It just so happened that her clothes were all tattered by thorn bushes, her feet were injured, and her face was disheveled. No one really doubted her identity.

Mrs. Liu's family was kind-hearted, they gave Mingyue a change of clothes, even bandaged the wound on her foot, and specially cooked two big sweet potatoes for her to eat.

After Mingyue ate and drank well, Mrs. Liu said that a good person would do her best to the end. Seeing that her legs and feet were inconvenient, she helped her go to the Liujia Village next door to find someone.

Mingyue didn't refuse, she just thanked her sincerely, and let Aunt Liu go to another Liujia Village to find someone.

It's just that Liu Dahai was originally Mingyue's nonsense name, so of course he couldn't be found in the village.

Mrs. Liu made a trip for nothing, she looked a little depressed, but when she faced Mingyue, she still comforted her, saying that it might be a village a little further away.

Mingyue forced a smile, but shook her head and sighed: "Since I can't find my uncle here, then I can only seek refuge with my married sister."

Mrs. Liu was stunned: "But your foot..."

"It's okay," Mingyue took out two taels of silver from her bosom, pleading with open eyes: "It's a long way to go, so please ask my sister-in-law to prepare some dry food for me. The rest is just to thank my sister-in-law for her kind meal." .”

Mrs. Liu was stunned when she saw the two taels of silver, and immediately waved her hands vigorously: "How can this be so much? Our family doesn't have any good things, too much, it's really too much."

Mingyue stuffed the money, "I want it, if it weren't for you, sister-in-law, I wouldn't know what to do."

Mrs. Liu took the silver and swallowed her saliva, and finally took it with some embarrassment.

The family is really poor, two taels of silver is enough for their family to live for several months.

Speaking of the money, thanks to Jiang Yunqi's suggestion that all the money should not be placed with one person, lest there be an accident and nothing will be left.

This is the same reason that all eggs cannot be put in one basket, so as not to be accidentally beaten.

This saves Mingyue from worrying about money.

It's just that Mingyue's silver is not much after all, and the total sum is only eight taels or three taels of silver. Now that she has given Mrs. Liu two taels of silver, the remaining money is even less.

But good people should be rewarded with good rewards, so that they will not live up to their character, and will also stand up when encountering things next time.

Mingyue looked at Mrs. Liu's family who were so busy, with a slight smile on her face.

In the small town at this time, a group of chasing soldiers asked the front and back, and finally reached the horse market.

The horse market guy who thought he had made a small fortune at first turned pale when he heard that Jiang Yunqi was a fugitive murderer.

"He, he, he lied to my fine horse and ran away!" The horse market clerk slapped his thigh and stuttered angrily.

He wondered why Jiang Yunqi didn't know the market price, so why would he be willing to give two coins to be cheated?

It's all because he thought he was an old acquaintance and didn't ask for a deposit!
It turned out that the fool was actually himself.

When the pursuers heard this, they were also half dead with anger.

"This damned Jiang Yunqi is really cunning, he actually ran away."

"Oh, did you see that the guy in the horse market is miserable, and he exchanged two coins for a top-notch horse and left. It's really bad luck."

"Hey, why aren't we unlucky? After chasing him so far over mountains and mountains, people ran away. What a waste of time."

"However, didn't Jiang Yunqi leave with his wife? Why did the horse market guy say he was the only one?"

"Isn't this simple? Obviously he let his wife hide it, and he will pick up the man after tricking the horse!"

"This is also the reason..."

No one really thought that Jiang Yunqi would abandon his wife and run away alone. After all, they chased all the way and didn't see the single woman.

Moreover, men judge others by themselves. The world is chaotic these days, and it is not easy to marry a wife. When life is not at stake, no one is willing to abandon a young and beautiful wife.
