"Hoo-ta-da, hoof-ta-da..."

“Hmm, hmm…”

The sounds that came one after another filled Su Qin's ears. If she hadn't been hiding under the car, holding on to the axle tightly with both hands and not daring to let go, she really wanted to poke her ears out.

The two people in the carriage have been making "hmm" sounds for an hour now, and there is no sign of stopping.

The annoying sound made the two horses pulling the cart distracted and they clapped their hooves in annoyance.

Su Qin was really afraid that the horse would lose its bestiality and kick her in the head, causing her head to burst.

At this moment, she just wanted to sing a song: "I should be in the soil, not under the car, to hear how sweet you are."

Damn it, some people are starving and skinny, while others ride in luxurious carriages and are accompanied by beautiful women.

"Bah, that evil old society."

Su Qin spat and tilted her head back with difficulty, trying hard to see how long it would take to reach the city gate.

But her vision was obstructed, and she could only see the horse's legs and its sweeping tail.

Fortunately, not long after, the driver knocked on the door and said, "Sir, we are about to enter the city."

Su Qin widened her eyes. It turned out that the driver was not deaf-mute. No matter how loud the noise the two people in the car made along the way, the driver remained motionless and silent. So Su Qin thought he was deaf.

Su Qin sighed and said, what great concentration!

The noise in the carriage gradually died down, and Su Qin began to get nervous before she could even breathe a sigh of relief.

They are about to enter the city. I wonder if the guards at the gate will check this carriage. If they find out that she hid under the carriage and sneaked into the city, they will kill her directly.

This was the carriage she had chosen with great difficulty. It was luxurious and spacious, with the "Lu" family emblem hanging on it. She did not recognize this family emblem, but judging from the luxury of the carriage, it must belong to a royal or noble family. So she took advantage of the time when the carriage was resting in the middle and the driver went to water the horses to secretly crawl under the carriage, cling to the axle, and "hitch a ride" all the way.

She had no other choice but to resort to this desperate measure. She had tried to enter the city before, but she couldn't even get close to the city gate. There were soldiers and officers standing ten miles outside the city to stop these refugees from entering.

If you insist on rushing forward, you will be caught or killed.

The refugees were not allowed to approach. Some of them would wait for relief food from the court, while others would move to other places. But she had her reasons for having to enter the city.

She traveled to this fictional era five years ago. In modern times, she is just an ordinary working social animal. She has no skills and no looks. She can only rely on working hard to ensure her "slacking fee".

But her diligence did not bring her any good luck. Instead, she died suddenly due to staying up late and working overtime for several days.

So after arriving here, when she learned that the original owner's father was a third-rank official in the capital, and that she was the eldest daughter raised by her grandmother in the countryside, and that someone would support her even if she did nothing in her life, she completely gave up.

It was impossible for her to work and it was impossible for her to make progress. She finally had this kind of life where she could have food and clothes provided for her, and she was enjoying it very much.

She didn't have any idea of ​​becoming a heroine like the time-traveling women she read in novels in her previous life, shining brightly in ancient society and creating a prosperous era. She was just a waste who couldn't make money or get rich, couldn't use medicine to cure diseases and save lives, couldn't dig medicinal herbs or farm. She just wanted to be diligent and be a good little waste.

When she gets old enough, she will ask her father, who is an official, to find her a husband so that she can continue to be a useless person, not fight at home, not take care of the family, and not be a couple for the rest of her life.

As long as he has enough food and clothing and doesn't commit domestic violence, she can let him do whatever he wants. If he wants to take a concubine, she will arrange it for him. If he has an illegitimate child, she will raise it. Her only requirement is that he should not disturb her and let her be a useless person who just eats and waits to die.

She stayed in the countryside for five years with peace of mind. If Chanzhou had not encountered a severe flood that washed away their house, she would not have walked for more than two months to reach the capital city.

After a long journey, she finally arrived in Shangjing City. She had to find a way to enter the city and find her father, one reason being to tell her father that her grandmother had passed away.

Another reason is that she needs to find them to continue supporting her, a waste. She doesn't think that an orphan like her has the ability to survive well in this feudal society.

Her grandmother was frightened by the flood and was caught in the rain, which caused her to have a high fever and she died.

After the flood receded, she cremated her grandmother and brought her ashes to Beijing. The ashes are still on her back. She has to go to the city to find her father and ask him to bury her grandmother.

While she was thinking, the carriage had already approached the city gate. She gripped the axle nervously and lifted herself up hard, so that her body was closer to the bottom of the carriage, for fear that someone would discover her whereabouts.

The carriage approached the city gate with the sound of hooves. Her face was covered in sweat, and she didn't know whether it was because of nervousness or because her hands and feet were stiff and sore from the effort.

She originally thought that when the carriage arrived at the city gate, the people in the carriage would have to show up and undergo inspection before being allowed into the city. However, the coachman drove the carriage directly past the people queuing to enter the city and walked towards the city gate without any pause.

The soldiers guarding the city wanted to stop the approaching carriage, but when they saw the family emblem on the carriage, they quickly moved out of the way and turned around to shout, "Get out of the way!"

The people who were queuing to enter the city at the city gate stood aside to make way for the carriage, which entered the city without even slowing down.

As soon as she entered the city, she could hear the hustle and bustle of the city. Hearing this bustle, Su Qin finally breathed a sigh of relief. She had made the right bet. It turned out that powerful people still have privileges.

But she didn't dare let go. If she fell at this time, she would still be caught.

The carriage slowed down in the city, and after going around several streets and alleys, it finally arrived at a quiet and silent wide alley. Su Qin turned her head and did not see anyone's legs. At this time, a burst of teasing sounds came from the carriage again.

She finally couldn't hold on any longer and let go, falling to the ground with a thud. The noise in the carriage covered up the sound of her landing.

The coachman continued to drive the carriage forward as if he was deaf and unaware of anything.

Su Qin was carrying an iron pot on her back, with her luggage and a jar of pickled vegetables containing her grandmother's ashes placed inside the pot. When she landed on the ground, the pointed bottom of the large iron pot touched the ground first, and she was like a turtle with its belly turned up, lying on her back with all four legs in the air.

She didn't care whether her posture looked good or not. She first shook her hands vigorously a few times, then shook her legs. She waited until her sore hands and feet were relieved before she tried to turn over.

She tried to lean her body to the right, but unfortunately she couldn't turn over. She used her left hand and left foot to reach the ground and pushed herself, hoping to use the force to turn over, but unfortunately she still didn't succeed.

She hadn't eaten for two days and had been digging under the carriage for several hours. She was completely exhausted and had no strength left.

She stopped to rest for a while helplessly, then licked her cracked lips, touched her back, searched in the pot for a few times, found a water bag, poured the remaining water in the bag into her mouth, rested for a while, gathered some strength, and tried to turn herself over.

Just as she was struggling with the big iron pot, she suddenly heard a "puff" sound, followed by laughter, and then a hearty male voice rang out: "Does she look like a turtle that has become a spirit?"
