My whole family time-traveled! I became a god during my exile in a famine.
Chapter 10 is finished, another one has gone mad.
Chapter 10 is over, another one has gone mad.
"Sister, I'm not lying to you! I'm telling the truth. My parents know that I never lie."
"Your red makeup cannot conceal your lofty ambitions, and your sword, cold as frost, illuminates the nine provinces. You are simply a role model for women of our generation. I have admired extraordinary women like you since I was a child. You are the heroine I have been chasing in my stories! You must not underestimate yourself."
Everyone:...
You're such a braggart! Even the sister of the third leader of Dragon Tiger Stronghold blushed from your praise!
Zhao Xun blushed a little, but her affection for the delicate and sweet little sister in front of her increased dramatically.
This girl is so eloquent! I want to listen, I love listening!
But—liking is liking, and business is business.
Zhao Xun said in a deep voice, "Two pieces of flatbread and two pieces of dried meat cost half a day's price."
"I know, sister, I can't let you work for nothing. Don't worry, I'll make sure you're well-fed. You've helped us a lot this time, I'll give you a water pouch later as a token of my gratitude."
Water bags are a valuable item. After their Dragon Tiger Stronghold was wiped out, they set off penniless and unprepared.
Zhao Xun was overjoyed upon hearing this, and could not hide his delight.
Xin Wen'an frowned deeply. "Carry it for five days and you only send a water bag? Sixth girl, you should know to discuss things with your family before you do anything!"
"Shut up. Uncle, it's not that I'm criticizing you, but I was talking to my sister. How can you be so rude, interrupting us like that? Do you think you're so great just because you're talking? Will you die if you don't say anything?"
Xin Wen'an stared wide-eyed at Xin Nian as if she were possessed by a ghost.
Oh no, oh no, another one has gone crazy!
The little crybaby walked for half a day, and not only was she tired, she kept crying. But she's also learned to talk back to people!
"Sixth sister, you..." Xin Mengxue opened her mouth, wanting to defend her father, but before she could finish speaking, Xin Nian retorted with a single sentence.
"Fourth sister, we are now asking the heroine for help to resolve our current predicament. If you had other methods that did not require resources, why didn't you say so earlier? You yourself are unable to carry anything, so if you can't help, don't waste your breath."
Xin Mengxue lowered her head and sobbed softly.
Xie Ninglan's temper flared up again at the slightest provocation, and she roared, "Stop crying! What's the use of crying all day? You're crying away all your good fortune!"
"Xie, why are you being so fierce? Why are you yelling at Mengxue? Don't think you can act like a tyrant just because the Minister's Mansion sent you a batch of things. Don't try to do whatever you want and piss on the heads of the whole family." Third Madam Zhuang also exploded and dragged her chains over to support her daughter.
"It's none of your business if my family gives me things. Those are gifts from my mother to our family of four or five. We're not giving them to you to use. Why would I use them to bully you? What business is it of yours?"
Zhuang was stunned for a moment, then beat her chest and stamped her feet, "You Xie, I knew you were selfish to the core. No wonder you and Xin Nian secretly ate flatbread and dried meat at noon, and didn't even share half a piece with us."
"Laughable! What do you mean, 'secretly'? We're eating openly and honestly! What's it to you? If you're so capable, why don't you ask your family to send some over?" Xie Ninglan rolled her eyes, then caught sight of several escorts rushing over menacingly. She immediately pulled her daughter back a step and fell silent.
Zhuang cried and screamed, "Mother, look at her, look at her! She's clearly not caring about the fate of the whole family..."
The outstretched finger, raised in mid-air, was swept by the tail of the escort's whip.
Zhuang cried out in pain and withdrew her hand, her face turning pale.
Several escorts roared, "Who's causing trouble? Can't we just keep traveling in peace? If we don't reach the post station on the outskirts of the capital before dark, you'll all be eating dust and drinking the wind!!"
Madam Yu quickly waved her hand, "No, no, we're not causing any trouble. We just need to ask the officers to loosen the chains a bit, as we've hired someone to carry our unconscious granddaughter."
The escort glanced at Xin Ruoyu, who was slumped to the side, and said irritably, "Your family always has so much trouble."
He complained a few times but didn't say anything more, and untied the iron lock hanging around Xin Ruoyu's waist.
Xin Nian, Xie Ninglan, and Zhao Xun worked together to tie Xin Ruoyu to Zhao Xun's back. Xin Ruoyu smiled sweetly at Zhao Xun and asked, "How should I address you, sister?"
"Zhao Xun." "Sister Zhao, my name is Xin Nian, Xin as in hard work and Nian as in longing." The little girl was soft and sweet, with a radiant smile, as if a ray of light shone on her, making people want to reach out and pat her head.
Zhao Xun tried hard to suppress the slight upturn of her lips and said dryly, "Follow behind me and be careful. The dirt road down from Shili Slope is not easy to walk on."
"Mmm, mmm!" the little girl responded very obediently.
Turning her head, she glanced at the inquiring looks coming from several other businesses, but she ignored them all.
What are you looking at? They've all ended up in exile; none of them are any more noble than the others.
In the days to come, we'll see how each of us uses our unique abilities to succeed.
In the afternoon, it got hotter and hotter as they walked, and everyone was drenched in sweat.
The ladies and young women exiled from the capital were delicate and pampered, and many of them had blisters on their feet from walking so much on the first day.
As the time drew to a close, nearing five o'clock, everyone was too exhausted to even utter a sigh or a sob.
Xin Ruoyu woke up halfway through, still delirious with fever, but managed to keep walking and then carried the old lady on her back.
Zhao Xun didn't say much and obeyed the arrangements. He would change people when told to and carry whomever he was told to. Despite the shackles and handcuffs dragging on, he carried people as if walking on flat ground.
Many people in the procession collapsed. After being scolded by the guards, their relatives, looking as if their fathers had died, dragged their burdens and continued on their way.
They rushed to the designated location after sunset and as night fell.
Many people burst into tears the moment they saw the small post station on the outskirts of Beijing.
Dali stared blankly at the people who were weeping and making ridiculous faces, and silently pushed the cart behind Xin Nian.
Look at these grown men, all of them so listless, they don't even look as capable as her delicate little lady.
She thought she would have to carry the young lady on her back halfway, but the girl has remained completely silent all the way.
Xin Nian held Xie Ninglan's arm and secretly channeled healing energy into her, "I estimate I can break through to the first level tonight."
"Really?" Xie Ninglan exclaimed with delight. "What kind of superpower is it?"
"both."
Xie Ninglan was overjoyed. Oh my, it had to be her precious daughter. She was indeed incredibly brave, far beyond what ordinary people could compare to.
"Does that mean we can use the most basic spatial techniques, like condensing and storing things?"
Xin Nian nodded. "It should work. I'll try it tonight."
Xie Ninglan clasped her hands together and muttered to herself, "Thank God, it would be best if we could open our original space as soon as possible."
"What I'm most worried about right now is what to do when my period comes. Oh dear. Although your grandma prepared a lot of cotton pads for us, I'm not used to using those."
"If only we could open up the space, we could use up all those sanitary napkins we've hoarded in several lifetimes."
Xin Nian held her mother's hand tightly, "Don't worry, Mom, I'll try my best."
