On the way to escape famine, my parents divorced

Li Qiutian looked at the depressed look on Li Shiyue's face when she came back on horseback, and asked, "What's the matter? Shiyue, what did the eldest master say?"

Li Shiyue no longer had the joy of completing the system task, earning 100 points and a chance to draw a lottery. She really couldn't understand Li Chunli's choice.

However, considering Li Chunli's growing environment and Qin Tao's upbringing, it is understandable that Li Chunli made such a choice.

However, Li Shiyue really wanted to explore the plot of the original book. If Li Shiyue and his family were stepping stones for Qin Tao's family, then would Li Chunli become the Crown Prince's Consort in the future?

"October?"

Li Shiyue was awakened from her thoughts when she heard Li Qiutian's shout. She rode her horse closer to Li Qiutian and said, "That's it."

Li Shiyue lowered his head and leaned close to Li Qiutian's ear, and whispered to him about what he saw Li Chunli outside the carriage of Crown Prince Liu Shu.

After listening to what Li Shiyue said, Li Qiutian's eyes widened: "She, she is desperate! She chased after me alone in such a cold weather?
Wouldn’t the people in the village be so anxious?”

Li Qiutian mentioned this, and Li Shiyue thought: "Yes, Li Chunli chased the carriage alone, so, did Qin Tao really not know?
Or was it Qin Tao who asked Li Chunli to chase after him?"

Li Shiyue shook her head, sighed to Li Qiutian and said, "Ah, sister, how can we care about this? Besides, it's Qin Tao's family's business, forget it, let them do whatever they want."

"Yes, then it's one family's business, and it's none of our business. This time we just need to protect our people and bring the body back."

However, although Li Shiyue said this to Li Qiutian, he still went to the back of the team and told Li Wangshui, who was driving a cart behind the Xuanjia Army, about this matter.

No matter what, Li Chunli is still a native of Lijia Village.

Because the whole road was covered with snow and the road was not cleared beforehand, we continued walking until we finally arrived at the post station outside Sanshan County just as it was getting dark.

The Black Armor Army naturally had to return to the garrison, but with Liu Tan's words and Liu Tan's face, Li Shiyue and his men could stay in this post station for free tonight.

Li Shiyue rode her horse forward, and when she arrived at the place, she dismounted and bowed to Liu Tan who was sitting on the tall horse.

“Thank you, young master!

I, Li Shiyue, on behalf of my clansmen, would like to thank you for your kindness to the people. In the future, if you need anything, just let me know. We, the people of Liujiatun, will go through fire and water for you without hesitation!"

Who wouldn’t say the official words?
Besides, let’s not talk about the whole Andong, even in Sanshan County, the most powerful person is Liu Tan, who has soldiers under his command. Isn’t it reasonable to say a few nice words to make Liu Tan happy?
Not to mention, the people of Lijia Village and Wangjia Village in Liujiatun really received favors from Liu Tan, and more than once, so what Li Shiyue said was actually a little sincere.

After respectfully watching the Black Armor Army led by Liu Tan go away, Li Shiyue and his companions followed the postman of the post station and drove their own carts into the animal shed.

There are only three families in Liujiatun who have carts: Li Shiyue's family, Li Youfu's family, and Li Wangshui's family who just bought a mule cart.

This time they were all driven out together. Starting tomorrow, they would have to go into the city to buy incense, candles, and paper money. Li Shiyang did not go back to Sanshan County directly. He said that he still had a few days off and would finish his business with everyone before leaving.

Since Li Shiyang is in charge of these matters, Li Shiyue naturally won't step in to do anything. There is no need for that.

The next day, Li Shiyue, who had woken up early, woke up because he felt hungry.

Although she was able to stay in the post station for free thanks to Liu Tan, it was so late. There were food for sale in the post station, but it was not cheap. Before leaving, Li's mother and Zheng Mei Niang brought dry food. Li Shiyue ate a few cakes and went to bed last night. Therefore, when she got up this morning, Li Shiyue went to find Li Shiyang first and asked about the time to return to Liujiatun. Then she and Li Qiutian led the horses out of the post station and went to Sanshan County.

After they entered the city, they first found a small restaurant and ordered four bowls of noodle soup.

The owner of the restaurant took one look at the two young girls. Even though they were young ladies capable of leading two horses, he really didn't think they could finish four bowls of noodles.

"Let the young lady know that our bowls are not small, but two cents bigger than those of other people. That's why they are two cents more expensive than other people. One bowl each should be enough for the two of you."

Li Shiyue was never the kind of person who had to prove anything to others. She felt that proving something was the most boring, as it was called being led by the nose by others. Besides, the boss said that he was afraid that the two of them would waste food and that they would not be able to finish the food and would not want to pay. If you insisted that you could finish it, no one would believe you.

The main reason is that the two people's body shapes are really confusing. They really don't look like people who can eat. Moreover, Li Shiyue looks like he has a relatively thin figure. It is really too normal that the boss does not believe that they can eat.

Sitting on the wooden bench closest to the horse tie, Li Shiyue smiled and shouted to the host: "Then do as the host's wife said, serve us two bowls first, and if we are not full, we can serve more."

Then, Li Shiyue and Li Qiutian each drank three bowls of noodle soup in front of the stunned wife of the boss, eating them all up without leaving a drop of the noodles or soup.

After paying the bill, they led the horses and went to the pawnshop.

The spoils obtained from the barbarians are all gold and silver crafts. If you want to spend them, you have to exchange them for silver first.

Of course, if the gold plate was put into the pawnshop, she would definitely be charged a profit. However, Li Shiyue had also decided that if the pawnshop gave her too little, she would just use a knife to chop the gold plate into pieces and spend the money directly.

I don't know if it was the hatchet on Li Shiyue's waist, or the nimble action of Li Shiyue picking up the hatchet to chop the bowl that scared the pawnshop owner, but in the end they got a good result, a bag full of silver and some money strings.

After getting the money, the two of them went straight to the bookstore and bought the books that Li Wangming mentioned, as well as pens, ink, paper and inkstone. Li Shiyue borrowed someone else's space, spread out paper and ground ink, and began to write the letter.

She wants to write a letter to Yan Jiuniang in Dongmu!

The original owner can read, but the handwriting here is not very good, but it is acceptable.

Dear Yan Jiuniang:
It's been two months since we last met. How are you, Jiu Niang?
We have settled in Liujiatun, Qingsong Town, outside Sanshan County. More than half a month ago, we encountered barbarians in the village.
Li Shiyue told Yan Jiuniang everything that happened after they settled in Liujiatun, including the help from Xingshenglou and Liu Tan's invitation to her to join the army.

He also briefly mentioned the kidnapping of Crown Prince Liu Shu, and mentioned Liu Shu's surprise at the fact that he and Yan Jiuniang knew each other.

Having said all of this, Li Shiyue then wrote down the main points of this letter.

My uncle was drafted into the army and was said to have been sent to Shannan East Road, but I don't know whether it is true or not.

Jiu Niang's business is spread all over Dalong, and Shi Yue asks Jiu Niang to help find the whereabouts of his uncle.

My uncle, Li Wangzheng, is forty-three years old, more than eight feet tall, has single eyelids, and a scar the length of a little finger outside his left eye.
Enclosed with this letter is a piece of trophy we won from the barbarians, so that I can share this joy with Jiu Niang.

New friend Li Shiyue's handwritten letter

After the ink dried, they stuffed the paper into an envelope and wrote their names on it. Then they went to the cloth shop and picked out a beautiful peach pink cloth. They took out the golden bowl with beautiful patterns that Shi Tou had brought back from the bag they were carrying and wrapped it in the envelope.

He also bought a nice wooden box, put the wrapped golden bowl in it, and also put the letter in it.

Later, the two of them took the wooden sign to Xingshenglou, handed over the wooden box, thanked the shopkeeper, and then went to buy things according to what Li's mother and Zheng Mei Niang said. (End of this chapter)
