Childbirth System: Become the Goddess of Mercy who grants children to the male protagonist!
Chapter 202 The Shield for Being Caught in the Crossfire of the Imperial Examination (6)
[Host, you should just spend some money to buy it; you've already gotten so much silver for free.]
[I've never seen anyone as stingy as the host!!!]
"You—" Xu Fu was somewhat speechless with anger at the system's sarcastic remarks, and was about to retort...
The system added quietly, "[If the host doesn't act quickly—]"
I'm afraid that later, I won't be able to leave so easily.
"What do you mean?" Xu Fu's eyelids twitched, and he cautiously glanced around.
He breathed a sigh of relief when he realized there were no familiar faces around.
The magistrate, accompanied by guards from the princess's residence, is searching everywhere for the host.
The enemy will arrive in five minutes.
"6! I'll spend my points, and you revive that horse for me. Can you do that?!"
Xu Fu was about to leave, but how could his two legs withstand the massive crowd opposite him?!
Instead of anxiously searching for horses, it's better to just ask the system for them.
【20 points. 】
The moment the system finished speaking, a magnificent Akhal-Teke horse suddenly appeared before Xu Fu's eyes.
The horse sneezed loudly, its tail swishing back and forth against Xu Fu's chest.
Xu Fu was startled and couldn't help but curse the system.
"All you do all day is create this mess, why aren't you this useful usually?!"
Xu Fu leaped onto his horse, grabbed the reins, and galloped quickly toward the city gate.
Xu Fu, still uneasy, asked again, "System, are there still people chasing me at the gate?"
The system remained silent for two seconds, refusing to respond.
Xu Fu was taken aback, then asked directly, "Are you impotent, or are you angry?"
[20 points. This system ensures a smooth journey for the host and the return trip.]
"Yes," Xu Fu agreed without hesitation.
He didn't care about these scattered points at all.
Although he was generous, he couldn't let the system take such a big advantage of him for nothing!
"They must find my trail."
"But I can't let them catch up with me; I want them to be anxious and sleepless at night—"
“But we can’t let the distance grow too great,” Xu Fu smiled. “System, you understand me, right?!”
"Walking the dog?!" The system hummed along with Xu Fu's tone.
"Oh my, you've gotten smarter! 002 really is all-powerful..."
Xu Fu gave the other person a perfunctory compliment, then fell silent and continued on his way.
Xu Fu, riding the upgraded Ferghana horse, only took four days...
He had already returned to the outskirts of Beijing.
However, Xu Fu did not return to the princess's residence immediately, but instead stopped to rest at a nearby farm.
Xu Fu found a farmer's family, offered them 100 taels of silver, and asked them to do him a favor.
"First do this, then do this—" Xu Fu leaned closer to the other person and whispered a long string of words.
The farmer was first taken aback, then shocked, and finally opened his mouth wide, looking Xu Fu up and down with suspicion.
"Are you...are you sure you want to do this?!" The farmer hesitated, looking at Xu Fu and stammering.
Xu Fu raised an eyebrow and said with a mocking expression, "Are you sure you don't want to do it?!"
Xu Fu took out two heavy 50-tael silver ingots from his pocket and tossed them between his hands one after another.
The farmers' eyes followed Xu Fu's movements, rising and falling.
Although people's faces show their displeasure, the greed in their eyes is no less.
"I...can I consider it—" The farmer did not immediately agree.
Although the money looked tempting, the things Xu Fu was about to do were of great importance!
Their family of ten, without those 100 taels, would at best be eating coarse grains and wild vegetables.
The fear is that if you take money you shouldn't, you'll face endless trouble later.
"I don't have time for you to think it over!" Xu Fu said, putting the silver back into his pocket and standing up to leave.
"Wait, wait a minute, we can talk this over—"
Seeing Xu Fu leave without looking back, how could the farmers let their prize slip away?!
He chased after Xu Fu, grabbed his sleeve, and shouted anxiously.
"Young master, I agree to this, okay?!"
Upon hearing this, Xu Fu immediately turned around, looking at the person with a half-smile.
He then took out a silver ingot from his pocket and handed it to the person.
Then, changing his tone, he said with a smile, "Only a fool wouldn't make money. Big brother is indeed a smart man."
The farmers looked embarrassed. Hearing Xu Fu's sarcastic tone, although they were displeased...
But the heavy silver ingot in his hand immediately filled him with boundless courage.
The farmer gritted his teeth and said with a serious expression, "Okay, you wait here, I'll go and find people for you right away."
The farmer, with silver in his hand, slipped into the inner room and whispered a few words to his wife.
He yelled at the other person, who was still stunned, "Forget everything else, do as I say—"
This was the first time the woman had been yelled at by her husband, and her eyes welled up with tears of grievance.
But when the 50 taels of silver were stuffed into his hand, his mouth gaped open wide enough to fit an egg.
Fearing someone might sabotage the deal, the farmer whispered another instruction, "As long as this is done well and the young master outside is pleased..."
"We can still earn 50 taels of silver—"
The woman's face lit up with joy, and she nodded hurriedly before hiding the silver in her hand in a corner.
After seeing that the person had come to their senses, the household immediately left the room and hurriedly walked towards the courtyard.
After rummaging through all the drawers and chests, the woman in the house pulled out her red wedding dress, which had been hidden at the bottom of the drawer.
Then, with a broad smile on his face, he happily walked towards Xu Fu, carrying the things.
"Young master, are you satisfied with this wedding dress?" The woman smiled smugly and praised it directly.
"Don't let my age fool you, I've kept this wedding dress in excellent condition—"
"Not only was it free of insect bites, but it also remained dry, and its color is remarkably vibrant."
"And this red veil—"
Before the other person could finish speaking, Xu Fu snatched the clothes away.
I briefly tried it on myself, then put it on directly.
Xu Fu didn't forget to instruct the other party, "Hurry up and rent a horse-drawn carriage in the village."
"Let's try to get through before dark—" Xu Fu immediately changed his mind.
"We'll enter the city gate at the beginning of the 5-7 PM, making sure it's a grand and lively affair."
Xu Fu took out a small piece of silver, about two or three taels, and gave it to the other party.
"Don't be stingy with money, the faster the better, and the more people the better."
"If you get the job done well, you'll definitely get your share of the rewards!"
The woman thought Xu Fu was desperate to get married and couldn't wait to become a live-in son-in-law.
Otherwise, why would a grown man, standing seven feet tall, wear a woman's wedding dress to get married?!
She readily agreed to the man's request, saying, "Don't worry, young master, I will take care of it perfectly for you."
The farmer's wife put the silver nail to her lips and took a bite, then immediately grinned from ear to ear.
He casually agreed to Xu Fu's request a few more times, and then hurriedly left home.
