Before fleeing famine, marry a playboy!

Chapter 5 Thank you for picking it up

After dinner, the master and servant began to pack up their things. Except for the courtyard where Li Yuening lived, all the other courtyards that could be moved were emptied by the escorts and servants. She didn't know how much effort this little girl had put in to prevent those people from entering the original owner's courtyard. Li Yuening thought about being more tolerant of this girl in the future, letting her cry.

clack.

Li Yuening turned around in confusion and saw Xiao Sui'er kneeling on the ground, "Madam, I'm sorry, the indentures of those servants were...put in by me, wuwu...if you don't give them to me, they...they will break into your yard, madam, I...wuwu, I can't stop them..."

Hiccup~Hiccup~

The little maidservant couldn't stop hiccuping when she started crying, and her speech was intermittent, but Li Yuening also understood that those servants used the original owner as a threat to let Xiaosui'er release their indentures, but they stayed alone. How could she blame such a loyal and affectionate little maidservant? The kindness of the original owner ultimately blessed her.

"Get up, we've let them go. If they were still here, your wife would have to support so many people. Now your wife can't even support herself." Li Yuening stretched out her hand to pull Xiaosui'er up, and pressed the Futu point near the little girl's throat. Only then did the little girl stop crying, her eyes red.

"Don't cry so easily in the future. Hiccups can hurt your body."

"Yes, ma'am."

After this episode, the two continued walking. Li Yuening had witnessed the passing of geese and the plucking of feathers. Except for those buried in the soil and nailed in the wall, all movable things were gone. If it weren't for the windows that no one wanted, those people would probably not have let them go. No wonder even Li Kuida's study was so simple. She finally found the reason.

Li Yuening clenched her fists and said, "Let's go back."

Xiaosui'er didn't dare to breathe all the way.

"Xiao Sui'er, can this dress be altered?" Li Yuening asked while holding up her skirt and gesturing.

“Um...that...” Xiaosui scratched her head embarrassedly.

Li Yuening was stunned for a while before she understood. This girl only knew how to run errands. No wonder she was in a hurry to run out before she finished speaking. She was probably afraid that she would forget what she had been told to do.

Now I have an additional skill, cooking, and I was forced to do it.

It seems that the master and servant now have zero life skills.

Li Yuening:~~"Hehe, your wife doesn't feel like using needlework recently. Let's go to the ready-made shop tomorrow to buy a few sets of clothes. It's the beginning of spring so you can buy two new sets of clothes. You see, your clothes are a little short now that you're taller."

Xiaosui'er's attention was immediately diverted. He lowered his head and saw that his ankles were almost exposed. He moved his feet shyly, and saw that his wife was no better than him. He cursed himself for being careless. Fortunately, his wife did not go out, otherwise he would be embarrassed.

It gets dark early in the spring. As the sky gradually darkens, Xiaosui'er goes to the kitchen again, while Li Yuening goes to the space. Unexpectedly, the seeds planted at noon have sprouted. Even Li Yuening, who has no common sense, feels something is wrong.

Could it be that the flow of time in this space is faster than outside?

If it were to take less time to recover physical strength in space, would it be more time-saving than outside? In order to verify this guess, Li Yuening took out a new tube of physical strength potion and a potion to enhance superpowers and poured them all into her mouth. There was no tearing and reorganization pain like the first time. The familiar blood flowed faster, making Li Yuening extremely excited.

Physical potions and supernatural potions were originally developed for combat, allowing people to fight tirelessly in excitement. If they are lucky, they will level up during the battle, but if they are unlucky, they will die of exhaustion or be bitten to death by zombies.

Li Yuening removed the crossbow from her arm and put it aside. She took off her cumbersome skirt and wore only a middle shirt, then she practiced boxing in the open space, played with a whip, and chopped randomly with a Tang sword. Occasionally, she vaguely saw the zombies from her previous life wandering around, and she was not afraid to rush forward and kill them one by one, just like cutting melons or vegetables.

Li Yuening stopped only when the seeds in the fence sprouted new buds. Sweat ran down her cheeks, her almond-shaped eyes were bright and sparkling, her middle shirt was wet and stuck to her, revealing the newly developed curves of her chest.

Li Yuening flashed out of the space holding her clothes. Sure enough, there was still light outside. Xiaosui'er hadn't prepared dinner yet. She changed into a clean undershirt, put her clothes back on and sat at the table waiting. She spread out her mental power and could sense the little girl busy in the kitchen.

He skillfully found a fire starter in the corner and lit the candle in the room, and the room immediately became bright.

As her supernatural powers slowly recovered, Li Yuening calmed down a lot, and the corners of her mouth curled up unconsciously.

"Madam, it's time for dinner."

Li Yuening was very satisfied with the familiar stir-fried vegetables, stir-fried radishes, and white rice. "Well, Xiaosui'er, the rice is getting more and more delicious."

Xiao Sui'er said in surprise: "Really?" It seems that she is still very talented in cooking.

Li Yuening was in a good mood and gave generous praise until the little girl blushed and walked out with the tray.

next day

It was early spring and the sun was shining brightly. The fragrance of apricot blossoms that had bloomed early from somewhere lingered in the air. Li Yuening was sitting at the stone table in the yard, eating the cakes that Xiaosui had bought that morning, and she was eating happily with tea.

Xiao Sui'er trotted over and said, "Madam, the manager of the dental clinic has come with some people. Where can you see them?"

Li Yuening swallowed the snack in her mouth, wiped her lips with a handkerchief, and said slowly: "It's right here, you bring them over."

After saying that, he got up and went back to the house. When he came out again, he saw Li Yuening wearing a veil, wrapped tightly from head to toe.

From afar, Xiaosui'er was seen coming with about 10 people. Three of them were holding weapons and dressed like gangsters; there were four strong men in shorts, with uniform clothes, and looked like they were from a certain escort agency; the other three were led by someone wearing red brocade robes, with jade rings on his waist and folding fans in his hands, followed by servants.

People in the martial arts world are short of money, and the escort agency is a business company, so why did this guy who obviously has no shortage of money come?

Soon they entered the yard.

Xiao Sui'er brought the people and stood behind Li Yuening. The manager of the escort agency bowed and said, "According to Madam Li's request, today we will let you choose the people who meet the requirements. They are known as Master Yue, Master Feng, and Master Yun in the Jianghu. This is Master Feng of Weiyuan Escort Agency and his subordinates. And this..."

"Thank you for picking me up. These two are my servants." The young man in red clasped his fists and performed a martial arts etiquette, which showed that he was skilled in it.

"Although the Li family escort agency is in decline, it is against the rules for the manager to bring people to me without asking where they come from." A clear and graceful female voice came from behind the fence, with a hint of blame.

The Li Family Escort Agency was a well-known brand in Jiangning. Li Kuida had a very good reputation during his lifetime. Although it had fallen on hard times, the manager of the escort agency did not dare to deceive Li Yuening.

The steward hurriedly explained, "Madam Li, please calm down. I did not ask for the name of this young man, but he definitely meets your requirements for employment."

"In that case, please don't blame me for being strict, because now there are only me and this maid left, so we have to be cautious." Li Yuening always felt that the young man in red looked familiar, but she just couldn't remember who he was.

"Don't dare."

"Although I have never traveled far, I know that the journey is full of dangers. I have to ask for help from a few brave men. I am willing to pay a large sum of money to escort my master and servant to Jinling." Li Yuening deliberately said the word "large sum of money" and carefully observed their reactions.

Sure enough, several people in the martial arts world showed joy on their faces. Among them, a hero named Yue had his eyes rolling around, and his hand holding the sword rubbed unconsciously. I don’t know what he was thinking about, but the corner of his mouth curled up evilly.

The escort chief of the escort agency, however, bowed and said, "I am Feng Yi from the Weiyuan Escort Agency. I have been taken care of by Escort Chief Li many times before. I am willing to escort Madam Li."

The young man in red was unwilling to be left behind. "I am from Jinling. I came here on business and heard about your affairs. I would like to make a good relationship with you and escort your lady."

One of them claimed to be familiar with Li Kuida, while the other took advantage of the locals. Li Yuening was silent for a moment.
