Chapter 18 Roasted Sweet Potatoes
What should I do? She was actually comforted. Thinking that she wasn't the only one so unlucky, she felt much better. "Where are we?"
"We've reached Shangyu County. At this rate, it'll take more than ten days." County Magistrate Wu lifted the curtain and glanced outside. "Let's rest here first. We'll have people there a little further on."
Sheng Changan naturally had no objection to this. There would be more things to do if there were more people, and it was getting late, so it would be best to take a rest before going.
As usual, Li Dashan led a few people to search for water nearby and some branches to survive. Sheng Changan rubbed his waist. Going out in ancient times was really a big problem. If only he had horses. But he would have to wait until next year to go. He had to leave a few horses behind.
Sheng Changan sat by the fire in a daze. At this rate, it would be difficult to catch up with the potato harvest season.
"Sir," County Magistrate Wu handed over the roasted sweet potato.
Smelling the aroma of roasted sweet potatoes, Sheng Changan's mood improved a lot. Although she had been eating roasted sweet potatoes for several days, she still couldn't resist the aroma. However, eating too much would cause some embarrassing problems.
"It's strange. Roasted sweet potatoes are so delicious, why do adults only eat one each time?" A big man muttered in a low voice while chewing on a sweet potato with a satisfied look on his face.
"That's right, it's so delicious." Another big man was also a little confused. Sometimes he would rather chew on the hard cake than eat the sweet potato. He could still eat one.
The others agreed and their hands were busy too. These days were the happiest days for them because they really had no food at home.
They came just because the county government was recruiting people. They originally thought that life would be difficult outside, but it turned out that the master made such delicious food. No wonder County Magistrate Wu said that the master was appointed by heaven.
Although these people thought they had lowered their voices, the two fires were not far apart, so County Magistrate Wu and his men heard everything clearly.
County Magistrate Wu also had his doubts. Although the adults would not harm them, they did not look like they disliked eating. In fact, they could even be said to like it quite a bit. County Magistrate Wu, who wanted to take another one, gradually stopped.
Sheng Chang'an's expression remained unchanged. She had no choice. Sweet potatoes were the most abundant in the county government office and were easy to store, so everyone brought a lot. She also took some and put them in the system space.
It is not good to go on a long journey without eating enough. It will just cause gas, which is not a big problem. Sheng Changan quietly finished the remaining bread from yesterday.
Li Hui looked at her husband's actions and gave up on the sweet potatoes. After all, she still had pancakes, which were just a little harder to chew.
Li Dashan completely ignored their actions. It was easy to get hungry after walking such a long distance every day. He blew the dust off the sweet potato and felt that it was no longer hot, then stuffed it into his arms to eat on the road tomorrow.
After the meal, Li Dashan and Li Hui discussed keeping watch all night, and they still needed to be more vigilant at night.
Sheng Changan's eyes moved. He had originally thought that Li Dashan would be a good general, but after observing him for the past few days, he felt that he was more suitable for following orders and sprinting. He had almost always followed Li Hui's advice on everything these days. Although Li Hui was good, she had a more important use.
Although women can be officials in this world, there is still too much discrimination. She doesn't want to have only men under her command in the future. Since she has decided to rebel, her country must naturally achieve gender equality, so a women's army is imperative.
The firelight shone on Sheng Changan's face, her expression was unclear. She leaned against the tree and closed her eyes, concealing her ambition.
Wu Xiancheng's eyes moved slightly. This gentleman was quite ambitious! However, this was exactly what he wanted. Thinking that there were only three of them left in the Wu and Li families, his face was filled with hatred.
