Transmigrated into a Prosperous Farm Wife, Pampered, Beautiful, Strong, and Tragic Prime Minister
Chapter 156 Narcissus Enters the City
……
"Excuse me, sir, how do I get to Mishan Academy?"
Jiang Shuixian was a little afraid to ask the honest-looking man in front of her.
Two days ago, Jiang Shuixian went to town with the peddler and tricked him into bringing her to the county.
She couldn't enter the county town without a travel permit.
The peddler originally planned to buy some hair ties and silk flowers and then take Jiang Shuixian home to be his wife, but in the blink of an eye, Jiang Shuixian ran away.
"Why are you asking about the academy?" The man turned around, startled.
Jiang Shuixian's face was covered with a thick layer of white powder, and her lips were painted red; the powder even fell off when she spoke.
Jiang Shuixian came to the county town to find Jiang Changtian. Thinking that she would leave a good impression on the people of the academy, she specially wore her best clothes, applied a lot of powder, and dressed up.
“My brother is studying at the academy. My mother asked me to come to the county to visit him. It’s my first time in the county, and I really don’t know the way.” Jiang Shuixian said, giving the man a flirtatious wink.
She did the same thing to those young lads when she was in the village, and every time she did it, she made them blush.
The man shuddered, feeling goosebumps all over his body, and immediately turned and left.
“The academy is on holiday now and won’t reopen for a few more days. You’ve come too early; you might not run into anyone,” a kind old lady nearby said.
I thought to myself, this girl's outfit is really an eyesore.
"Ah, but my older brother hasn't come home. He must be at the academy!"
Jiang Shuixian had already inquired before she arrived. She learned that when the eldest brother of the Lin family, who was a carpenter, got married, the two of them returned to the county after finishing their wedding banquet.
She couldn't think of anywhere else to look for someone besides the academy.
Jiang Shuixian came to Jiang Changtian about her marriage.
She was getting on in years, and all the suitors who came to propose marriage were cripples, scoundrels, and scoundrels. She didn't like any of them, and she also disliked the peddler who brought her there; he was short, ugly, and unattractive.
Thinking of the man who sent the invitation last time, Jiang Shuixian had an idea.
She came to the county and asked Jiang Changtian to act as her matchmaker, so she could marry into the county and ride in such a luxurious carriage.
Thinking of the young master's handsome appearance, Jiang Shuixian blushed.
"Then I don't know," the old woman muttered.
At that moment, a thin man in his thirties or forties saw Jiang Shuixian and his eyes lit up.
"Little girl, are you looking for your brother? Come on, I'll take you to the academy."
Upon hearing this, Jiang Shuixian happily replied, "Thank you, brother."
The old woman wanted to say something to remind her, but Jiang Shuixian had already happily left with someone else.
"Come with me, the academy is over here."
Jiang Shuixian followed behind the skinny man, her mind preoccupied with how to behave when she met him. She didn't even notice that the man had led her into a dead end.
"Hehe, what a nice woman, she has to paint herself to look like a ghost. But I haven't had any meat in a long time, so I'm not picky."
The skinny man stared at Jiang Shuixian's figure and couldn't help but swallow hard.
If you behave well after we're done playing, I'll take you home to be my wife. If you don't, I'll sell you to the Chunfeng Brothel. Even if you wash your face clean, you'll still be worth two taels of silver.
"Ah! What are you doing? This is indecent assault! If you dare come any closer, I'll call for help."
Jiang Shuixian snapped back to reality and retreated in fear.
But there was a dead end behind her, so she couldn't run away.
"Go ahead and scream, even if you scream your lungs out, no one will come to save you. Your face covered in powder is disgusting. Damn it, wash your face first!"
The skinny man pulled Jiang Shuixian and pushed her into the dirty bucket in the corner.
I don't know what the bucket was used for, but it was left here. Jiang Shuixian was forced to wash her face, revealing a fairly pretty face.
"Help, help!"
Jiang Shuixian almost fainted from crying when she saw her clothes being torn open.
Just as she was filled with fear and despair, the man suddenly stopped moving.
Lin Shuyun stood at the entrance of the alley, tossing small stones around playfully.
The skinny man who had just been hit on the head had his eyes light up.
"Damn, there's such a beautiful woman here! My beauty, aren't you itching to let me pamper you too?!"
Upon seeing the even more beautiful Lin Shuyun, the skinny man forgot all about Jiang Shuixian and pounced directly on Lin Shuyun.
Few people usually come through this alley; it's like God sent him a woman.
Before they could even get close, the skinny man fainted.
Just as Lin Shuyun was about to leave, Jiang Shuixian, pulling her clothes together, ran out of the alley, "Th-thank you..."
"Lin, is that you?!"
Jiang Shuixian was stunned when she saw Lin Shuyun.
Lin Shuyun glanced at the disheveled Jiang Shuixian and curled her lip. "Oh, if I had known it was you, I wouldn't have bothered with this."
She thought it was a girl from the building who had been brought here.
Lin Shuyun left after she finished speaking.
Jiang Shuixian was stunned for a moment, then hurriedly chased after him.
"Wait...wait, sister-in-law, wait for me!"
……
……
Jiang Shuixian has disappeared.
Xu cried bitterly in the village and searched everywhere for Jiang Shuixian.
Jiang Shoutian asked around and found out that Jiang Shuixian had run off with the peddler.
Xu argued so much with the gossiping women in the village about this matter that they almost came to blows.
“Uncle Shoutian, the peddler is in Xinghua Village. I just came from Xinghua Village. You should go and ask him!” a young man shouted to Jiang Shoutian.
He went to Xinghua Village to visit his sister and saw the peddler.
Upon hearing this, Xu and Jiang Shoutian disregarded everything else and rushed to Xinghua Village.
As soon as I reached the village entrance, I saw a magnificent carriage with people riding tall horses beside it.
Xu grabbed Jiang Shoutian and hid behind a tree.
"May I ask, distinguished guest, is there any business in the village?"
When the village chief of Xinghua Village heard that a distinguished person had arrived in the village, he gathered all the villagers together to ask him some questions.
As the village chief, he was unaware of the visitor's identity and could only treat him with extreme caution.
"Where is the carpenter's daughter in your village?"
Young Master Wang didn't even bother to glance at these lowly people; it was his maid who asked the question.
"A carpenter's daughter? There's no carpenter's daughter in our village?" The village chief was stunned.
Lin Hongzhi is the only carpenter in their village. He and his wife are young and have just gotten married, and they don't have a daughter yet.
"Old man, don't try anything funny, just tell me!"
Young Master Wang felt that the old man was doing it on purpose.
Young Master Wang and his party went to town but couldn't find Carpenter Lu. After inquiring, they came directly to the village to look for him.
Having walked such a long dirt road, Young Master Wang was already impatient. Hearing that the village chief wasn't telling the truth, his temper flared up instantly.
Fearing her master might cause trouble, the maidservant said expressionlessly, "Call everyone in your village here, men, women, young and old. Our young master wants to ask you some questions. If you answer them well, you'll get a reward of two taels of silver. Hurry up!"
A reward of two taels of silver?!
The villagers present were in an uproar when they heard this! They all rushed to their homes to call for help.
Xu, who was hiding behind the tree, also brightened up and pulled Jiang Shoutian to stand in the crowd.
