Exiled after the marriage? My elder sister sent me to the throne!

Jiang Qiu whispered in Lu Ce's ear.

Lu Ce frowned slightly: "I've been paying attention to it recently."

"Okay." Jiang Qiu found a flat ground and sat down cross-legged. He patted the empty space next to him and said to Lu Ce: "Come, sit down."

Lu Ce sat down as he was told.

Jiang Qiu immediately reached out and took out the meat buns from his backpack.

There were twenty meat buns, one of which was given to the beggar, leaving nineteen. Jiang Qiu placed the buns in front of him and said, "Everyone, take some and eat them. Have a full meal first, and feed Yao'er some of the porridge that the official will distribute later."

"Wow, meat buns." Lu Mingyue swallowed greedily.

Jiang Qiu took the initiative to give it to her.

Lu Mingyue looked at her grandmother.

Qian said lovingly, "You eat first."

With a mouthful of "Awoo", Lu Mingyue tasted the oil and water, and jumped up happily: "It smells so good."

Seeing that she was happy, the adults also started eating happily.

"Um...can you sell me one of your meat buns?" A beautiful young lady approached and asked Jiang Qiu.

Her cheeks were covered with a thin layer of mud, just like Jiang Qiu's, but Jiang Qiu could easily see the red tips of her ears.

Obviously, she is a shy girl.

Jiang Qiu asked Lu Ce: "How many do you want to eat?"

Lu Ce: “Four.”

Qian said, "The two of us are enough."

Lu Mingyue also has two.

Jiang Qiu counted out eleven and sold the remaining eight: "We buy meat buns for three coins each, but we give ten taels of gold. You give me five hundred copper coins each. Is that acceptable?"

"Sure, I'll buy all the rest of yours." Ni Yihui quickly took out the money.

Jiang Qiu gave her 500 coins in change for the five taels of silver.

Ni Yihui thanked again and returned to her small group with the buns.

Her father-in-law chose the wrong side, which led to the exile of the whole family. However, compared with the tragic situation in the General's Mansion, her family was much better off. At least everyone in the family was still alive. Of course, they were not big shots. In the capital, they were just ordinary people.

Her husband was an eighth-rank county magistrate, and was originally an official in a small town, but was dragged here and exiled.

It was also because they were away from home and not well prepared. Her husband was honest, and the total money in the family did not exceed one thousand taels. Most of it was taken away by the officials who confiscated the family's property, leaving three hundred taels. They were very stingy with their food. Just now, she saw that their family had a lot of meat buns, so she asked tentatively. She didn't expect it to work.

She quickly gave the buns to her husband and children.

Jiang Qiu chewed on a meat bun and thought, "Maybe I can do some business."

Lu Ce: "Hmm?"

"You can memorize the map, so tell me how long it will take us to get to the next county town," Jiang Qiu asked him.

"It will take at least three days."

"It's so far, I'll take it easy."

"Tell me about your business first." Lu Ce asked.

"I can cook and cook for the official. Ask him to lend us the big pot. We usually have two meals a day, morning and evening. I will cook two meals for them, but I can only borrow the big pot at night. That way we won't delay our journey." Jiang Qiu stood up as he spoke.

She had to go and ask the officials whether her plan would work.

"Hey." Lu Ce called her.

Qian was also shocked: "Didn't Qiu Niang ask for your opinion?"

In her inherent concept, a woman should ask her husband about anything related to the outside world.

Lu Ce stood up with the help of his cane: "It has nothing to do with this."

Jiang Qiu has a capricious personality. Not only does she not listen to her husband, she doesn't even respect the emperor Jiang Qiu.

Maybe this is the pride of being a ghost!

Lu Ce called her subconsciously, but he didn't expect her to be so reckless.

He went to the officer's tent and saw Jiang Qiu looking for Luo Yunchun.

"In addition to cooking two meals for the entire team, I will also split the evening's profits with you 50-50."

"Er Ba, you're Er Er, I'm Er Er." Luo Yunchun leaned against the edge of the tent, looking at the young lady in front of him. He had never heard of the second lady of the Prime Minister's Mansion in the capital.

But judging from her words and actions, she doesn't seem like someone who would hide in the crowd.

Jiang Qiu shook his head: "No, it's too low. I'm a weak woman who can't even lift a chicken. Being on the road of exile is exhausting. Besides, I can't sell goods every day. Once the goods are out of supply or it rains, I have to suspend my business. But I promised you that I would help you cook every day, so I can't suspend it."

"Then what do you want?"

"Four and six, I'm four and you're six."

"No, the highest is three for you and seven for me."

Reaping the money of this group of people was the greatest pleasure of Luo Yunchun's job. When it was suddenly taken away by Jiang Qiu, he knew that this group of people did not have much money left and wanted to reap it slowly.

Moreover, Jiang Qiu promised him that she could cook delicious food with simple ingredients. If it was not tasty, she would give him ten taels of gold. Seeing her confidence, Luo Yunchun did not doubt her cooking skills and was very happy.

"Okay." Jiang Qiu sighed, "Then I'll cook for you tomorrow."

"Okay." Luo Yunchun smiled and the rich lady cooked for him.

Pretty cool.

Lu Ce listened to the whole thing and asked her as he accompanied her back, "Are you really going to cook for them?"

"Yeah, what's wrong?"

"I'll give you a hand."

"That's good. You know how to handle things. You have a future." Jiang Qiu raised his hand and patted him on the shoulder.

But Qian firmly disagreed: "Qiuniang, you are a rich girl, how can you cook for a bunch of rough men!"

"Mom, we are common people and they are officials. We should feel honored to be able to cook for them." Jiang Qiu reminded her implicitly.

Qian was startled, tears streaming down her face again: "But you shouldn't do this."

"Mom, I don't steal or rob, and I don't break the law. I have nothing to be ashamed of. Maybe in your eyes, cooks are lowly, but in my eyes, people who can use their skills to get the fruits of their labor are glorious. I am proud that I can cook, and I am willing to seek benefits for my family. I respect you very much, and I hope that you can be proud of me too."

Jiang Qiu sat there with clear eyes. She didn't think that she should fall into depravity after reaching the current point, nor did she indulge in the glory of the past. She just kept moving forward.

Qian's heart trembled, her lips moved, but she didn't say the unpleasant words in the end.

Qiu Niang was wronged by marrying Ce'er, and now she is willing to cook for the sake of the family. It is her narrow-mindedness as a mother-in-law. Qian wiped her tears and said, "Leave the public appearance to me. I will be responsible for cooking for them. You are a young lady, and it is not good for you to have too much contact with men."

Jiang Qiu didn't dwell on her thoughts, but just smiled and said, "Mother is so kind."

"You." Qian was a little sad and hated that they met at the wrong time.

Such a good young lady deserves to enjoy a happy life.

If the General's Mansion was still there, she would definitely spend a large sum of money on betrothal gifts to allow Ce'er to marry Qiu Niang in a grand ceremony.

After Jiang Qiu persuaded Qian, it was completely dark. She lay in the grass and whispered to Lu Ce, "Your mother has a very kind character."

"Yeah." Lu Ce also knew it very well.

My mother is a simple person and never makes malicious assumptions about others.
