Traveling through time and space to become a lady of a noble family, but she only wants to escape

"That's not the case." Lin Chuqi shook his head and said seriously, "Clouds are made up of many tiny water droplets, all mixed with dust. So, like cotton, when the water droplets become larger and heavier, they will fall from the sky..."

Although his speech was immature, it was still quite concise.

While they were talking lively inside, Qiaoqiao tiptoed over outside, patted Baizhi on the shoulder, and said with a smile: "This Lin Chuqi Xianqi has inherited Master Baizhi's true teachings."

Qiaoqiao's voice was heard by the entire shed. Lin Chuqi turned around and found that Baizhi was also there. He felt a little embarrassed for a moment, and he didn't know whether to stop or speak.

Under the gaze of the other children, Bai Zhi grabbed Qiao Qiao's hand and walked away in two steps. When they were out of sight of the shed, Bai Zhi stopped and pointed in the direction of the shed, asking Qiao Qiao with a puzzled look on her face, "What's going on?"

Qiaoqiao raised her head and patted her chest: "I built it."

Bai Zhi pulled Qiaoqiao's braid and said, "That's not what I'm talking about."

"Oh, oh, I know. You mean Chuqi's primary school." Qiaoqiao rescued her braid and jumped two steps away. "He spent all his family's wealth in a hushed manner. Everyone knows he is a scholar. Now that the school has been closed during the war, several uncles and aunts have asked him to teach their children. I was going to tell you tonight, but now you can see for yourself, Chuqi looks like a teacher, right?"

Bai Zhi's eyes twitched. "Both of my heads are full of water—what are we going to do about the Autumn Examination on the seventh day of the first lunar month?"

Qiaoqiao: “…”

She suddenly realized: "Yes! There is an exam on the seventh day of the New Year!"

"We have so many children and we can't just leave them alone." Bai Zhi spread her hands. "You'll go back for the exam on the seventh day of the first lunar month. You'll have to teach them by yourself in a couple of days, Bai Ying Xian Qi."

"Oh..." Qiaoqiao narrowed her eyes and looked at Baizhi, "Your head is also used to hold water, so you have to come and teach too."

Bai Zhi: "..."

She wanted to use the same trick again to pull Qiaoqiao's braids, but Qiaoqiao was prepared and blocked her left and right, and the two of them started fighting back and forth like this.

Half an hour later, Mr. Lin's school was over.

Qiaoqiao rushed over to talk to Lin Chuqi about the Autumn Examination, but Lin Chuqi looked prepared and said calmly, "I'm not taking the exam anymore."

Bai Zhi, who was following behind, was a little surprised and asked, "Have you thought it through?"

Lin Chuqi said firmly: "I've thought it through."

Bai Zhi nodded. She had never pushed her children to take the imperial examinations; she simply hoped they would follow their hearts. After all, with one official and one businessman in the family, that was enough to provide them with protection.

Qiaoqiao let out a long sigh, muttering that it was a good thing I didn't have to teach her. Then she asked, "Why didn't you take the exam? Aren't you afraid you won't pass?"

Lin Chuqi glanced at her sideways and said, "I'm just imitating you."

"follow me?"

"Master asked me to learn more about you and observe you more. I didn't see much at first, but later I discovered that you have a strength that ordinary people can't match—you never think about the future when you act." Lin Chuqi said seriously, "You do what you want to do immediately, follow your heart, and don't consider the consequences at all."

"..." Qiaoqiao was silent for a moment, then turned to look at Baizhi and said, "Is he saying I'm stupid?"

Bai Zhi immediately covered Qiaoqiao's mouth with her hand and smiled at Lin Chuqi, "Everyone has their own personality. Qiaoqiao has her strengths, and you have yours too. Learn from Qiaoqiao's strengths, but don't throw away your own. But once you've made up your mind, do it. Lin Chuqi, my dear friend, don't curl up in bed and cry this time."

When talking about the embarrassing things in the past, Lin Chuqi's face turned red and white, and finally he stomped his feet and turned and ran away.

Qiaoqiao broke free from Baizhi's hand and sneered mercilessly, "Hahahahahahahaha, Master Lin is shy!"

From afar came a voice filled with shame and anger: "Just wait!"

Bai Zhi felt much better and said to Qiao Qiao, "Okay, I'm going back."

"Hey, wait a minute, sister." Qiaoqiao grabbed Baizhi and said, "I heard that a batch of pigs will be shipped here, and we will share the meat. Why don't you go ask Lord Wei when they will arrive? I haven't eaten meat in a long time."

As she spoke, she patted her skinny belly: "I do all the hard work, how can I bear it without eating meat?"

Bai Zhi asked suspiciously, "There's talk of a big war coming up lately, and people are panicking. How could there be meat coming over? Where did you hear that?"

"I just heard it from the neighbors."

It was probably made up by someone who was starving, but - Bai Zhi took a closer look at Qiaoqiao, and she was indeed much thinner than before. Her originally plump and strong limbs now looked like she hadn't eaten for three days, and the round bone on the side of her wrist was so thin that it bulged out.

I didn't notice it when I saw her every day, but when I recalled how she looked in Qing County and compared it to her, Qiaoqiao now looks like she is fleeing from famine.

Bai Zhi immediately said, "I'll go to the government office and ask."

"it is good!"

At the same moment, on the other side of Wu County, a crudely constructed shop was surrounded by villagers in three layers. Those who arrived late, confused, grabbed the outermost layer and asked, "What are you doing in there?"

The people on the outermost layer were sweating profusely: "There's food inside!"

"What to eat?"

"I don't know. I just heard that a dead-looking guy and a beautiful woman were handing out food. They gave out whatever they wanted. Wouldn't they take the free gift?"

Those who arrived late also hurried to join in.

In the middle of the crowd, laborers pulled two ropes, forcing a line of people together. A man, the so-called "dead face" by the villagers, was handing out large oil-paper bags with a smile on his face. "Thank you all for your support, folks. I'm Zhou Shensi from Fuzhou, the owner of Tang Sanwei. I heard about the trouble in Ningzhou, so I've traveled thousands of miles to show my gratitude. I present you with some dried bacon and my special milk tea powder. One day, when peace is restored, I, Zhou Shensi, welcome you all to Tang Sanwei in Qingxian, Fuzhou!"

The beauty beside her was Tu Yingxu, who had painted her eyebrows and hair, dressed in a bright and beautiful manner, and shyly invited the villagers who had received the large oil-paper bags to come and receive the small oil-paper bags. Each small oil-paper bag was inscribed with the three characters "Sugar Three Flavors".

A curious villager asked Tu Yingxu, "What's the girl's name? How old is she?"

Tu Yingxu gave everyone a shy smile and said, "Everyone, go to Tang Sanwei in Qing County, Weizhou, and you will see me again."

Although they had prepared a lot of things, there were even more people coming to claim them. In less than half an hour, the baskets were empty. The people who didn't get anything left in disappointment, while Zhou Shensi was still enthusiastically calling out, "Fellow villagers, tomorrow at this time, we have some goodies to give away! Please spread the word!"

After everyone left, Tu Yingxu finally relaxed his strength, leaned back in his chair, and said weakly, "Shensi... Can I not come tomorrow?... I haven't rested since I started traveling..."

"Hey, hey, hey, don't. We can't do this without you." Zhou Shensi hurriedly rubbed Tu Yingxu's arm in a very servile manner. "Two days left, just two days. I'll pass out the tea bags tomorrow, you just sit there."

"Can I not wear makeup tomorrow... My face feels really bad..."

Zhou Shensi said firmly: "No, this trick works well. Everyone loves beauty. When the boss was welcoming guests at Wenxiang Tower, he could earn ten days' wages in one day."

Tu Yingxu wanted to cry but had no tears.
