Chapter 2: Escape
However, she was also a person who managed a large enterprise with more than 100,000 people in her previous life, and she only hesitated for a moment before making a decision, she planned to go to other cities, and with her own ability, could she starve to death?
It's just that the most important thing now is to change the wedding dress on the body first, this red is too eye-catching, and it will become the focus wherever you go, and there is no way to hide your figure.
Those bandits certainly couldn't just let herself go, wearing this was like a light in the night, those bandits were like hungry wolves at this time, if she showed a little smell to go out, they would find the smell and catch up.
It's just that there is no way to change it now, forget it, take the trail and try to avoid pedestrians. Let's settle it in Louyi, and when the time comes, sell the horse, and then go and change into clothes.
Su Wu left the main road and headed towards Louyi. Qiandeng Town is not very far from Louyi, and if you ride a horse, you can travel for about seven or eight hours.
Su Wu searched the memory of the original owner, and really found the route to Louyi, it seems that the original owner is not a canary who does not go out of the gate, and the second door does not step, she immediately followed the general direction of the horse gallop away.
Originally, it would have been safer to go to Suzhou, which is farther away, but to go to Suzhou by land, you must pass through Canglongling. And if you take the waterway, you have to take a boat, Su Wu doesn't have any silver on him, so naturally he can't take a boat. In addition, the original owner's previous husband's family was in Suzhou, and Su Wu didn't want to meet the dog family.
She plans to go to Louyi County first, and then go to Jiaxing from Louyi. Jiaxing is also an extremely wealthy city in Jiangning County, since you can't go home, then go to Jiaxing to develop.
It's just that after another two or three hours of travel, she now has an imminent problem that needs to be solved urgently. She is now dizzy from hunger, and although the temperature has risen during the day, she still feels cold due to the severe lack of energy supplements, and she is dizzy with severe blood sugar deficiency.
If he didn't eat quickly, Su Wu was sure that he would definitely not be able to reach Louyi City alive. Fortunately, when Su Wu was riding a horse in a farmland full of corn bellflowers, he was trying to find food.
She suddenly saw that not far in front of her was a field that seemed to be planted with sweet potatoes or potatoes, and those peculiar ridges had not yet been bulldozed.
Su Wu thought she was dazzled, she cheered up, took a closer look, and immediately almost cried with joy, this is really a sweet potato field.
The owner's family seems to be a bit Buddhist, just digging up the sweet potatoes, and not cleaning up the land by the way, planting some winter wheat or something, so the ridges for planting sweet potatoes are still there at this time.
Su Wu, who grew up in the countryside, was really excited and almost jumped up on the spot, sweet potatoes are such a thing, you can't dig them up like this. In the previous life, agricultural science and technology were so developed, and many of them could not be dug up at the time of harvesting.
As long as you turn it in the soil, you will definitely be able to turn over the lost sweet potatoes. Su Wu hurriedly dismounted, searched left and right, and finally broke a thumb-thick branch on the sill, and immediately rummaged in the dirt.
Usually, the soil of the land where sweet potatoes are planted is relatively soft, so Su Wu is not too difficult to dig. It's just that she is so hungry that her chest is against her back at this time, and she must stop and rest after digging a few times, otherwise her head will be dizzy.
This is the reason for the severe lack of blood sugar, she gritted her teeth, endured the dizziness, and continued to dig sweet potatoes hard. Finally, with her unremitting efforts, she finally dug up the first sweet potato, although it was only the size of an egg, Su Wu was like a treasure.
I didn't care about getting dirty, so I patted off the dirt on it, and then wiped it on the hem of my skirt a few times, and ate it directly. But she didn't dare to eat fast, otherwise she couldn't stand the hunger for a few days.
In addition, the sugar in sweet potatoes also needs to be chewed thoroughly to maximize the release of sweet potatoes. What she lacks most now is sugar, and if she doesn't get it, she feels like she could go into shock at any moment.
She ate very thinly, and it took her seven or eight minutes to eat the egg-sized sweet potato. I really chewed it into foam before swallowing it.
After eating this egg-sized sweet potato, Su Wu really felt a little clearer, and she hurriedly buried her head and continued digging. But this time it wasn't good luck, and she didn't find a single one after digging for seven or eight minutes.
In desperation, she had no choice but to stop and rest for a moment before continuing to dig. This time, she didn't dig blindly like she did just now, but carefully observed, looking for places where sweet potatoes might have been left according to the experience taught by her mother when she was a child.
After searching for a while, she found that on the ridge that was separated from hers, there was a place about 1 foot wide and narrow, and there was a relatively thin sweet potato vine that had not been cut.
The place was not completely opened, Su Wu was overjoyed, and hurriedly went over to excavate. Sure enough, in a few clicks, four or five sweet potatoes were dug up, and one of them was quite large, the size of her fist.
The rest of the few are not small, and the smallest one is no smaller than the one she just eaten. Su Wu was ecstatic, it was so good that she finally didn't have to starve to death.
She did the same, nibbled on a few more sweet potatoes, and the biggest one she decided to stay and eat on the way. Although she has the memory of the original owner, it is not very clear, and she is afraid that she will go the wrong way.
If you can't get to Louyi within the reserved time, don't you have to eat on the way? So, it's important to save some for emergencies.
After eating, Su Wu patted her stomach with satisfaction and sat on the ground to rest. The horses were left aside by her, but instead of running away, they were leisurely gnawing on the weeds that were green in winter.
Su Wu was a little envious of a horse for no reason, too, how comfortable it was, although it was domesticated by humans as a mount, but it was not a good food and drink to serve?
Moreover, even if it is thrown into the wild, it can live well, but people can't. Su Wu smiled sadly, he has been a human being in two lives, but he has not had a horse to live comfortably.
After resting for a while, she continued to get up to look for the sweet potatoes left by the owner's family, and after more than an hour of hard work, she finally harvested almost 5 catties of sweet potatoes.
This is a big gain, even if she doesn't reach Louyi by the wrong way, she can rely on these sweet potatoes to carry it in the wild for a few days. After a few days, those bandits found that Su Wu never appeared, and they would definitely retreat, and it was a big deal to go back when the time came.
But fortunately, her luck did not reach that point, just before dusk, Su Wu finally rushed to Louyi City, looking at the two big words "Louyi" on the gatehouse, Su Wu breathed a long sigh of relief.
led the horse into the city, and the defenders at the gate of the city were stunned when they saw her in a red wedding dress. Whose bride is this? Why did you come on horseback? Could it be that he ran away from marriage halfway?
Su Wu ignored them, and led the horse directly into the city, and those defenders didn't stop her from questioning or teasing her or anything, but Su Wu secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
If these defenders play hooligans like in the TV series in their previous life, and want to tease her, it will be really troublesome. After entering the city, Su Wu immediately grabbed a passer-by and asked about the direction of the horse market.
Although passers-by were surprised that this girl in a wedding dress asked Ma Shi what to do, she did not hide it, and enthusiastically helped Su Wu point out the direction, and Su Wu immediately rushed over there after thanking her.
She needs to sell the horse, or she'll have to sleep on the streets tonight. Although she is a little reluctant, Su Wu is not the kind of woman who has a mother-in-law.
Now, getting the money, eating a full meal, and changing a set of clothes are what you should consider. As for the horse, it was snatched anyway, although it carried itself for such a long distance, Su Wu would not say that his feelings were too deep.
After riding a horse for about ten minutes, he came to the horse market, and from a distance, Su Wu saw that the horse market had begun to end one after another.
Su Wu hurriedly led the horse into the horse market. Perhaps her horse was too strong and in good condition, and as soon as she entered the horse market, two middle-aged men who looked very shrewd came up to her.
One of the short and fat men with two mustaches was stunned at first when he saw Su Wu's dress, but immediately returned to his smiling appearance.
He pointed to the yellow fat horse led by Su Wu and said, "Girl, this is here to sell horses?" ”
Su Wu didn't say much, and nodded: "Yes, how much price is Mr. willing to pay?" If the price is right, sell it to Mr. ”
The fat man was stunned for a moment when he heard this, mainly because he was a little unaccustomed to this little girl calling him husband. You must know that at this time, the only person who can be called Mr. is the teacher in the school or the great Confucian in the academy, which is a noble honorific title.
He is a horse dealer, where has he ever been so respected? However, after all, he was old and sophisticated, so he was only slightly stunned, and then smiled heartily: "The girl is polite, Mr. doesn't dare to be, and then Huang Shiren, I don't know how much the girl's BMW wants to cost?" ”
Su Wu listened to him and didn't make an offer, but let himself make an offer. She didn't want to delay any longer, so she directly quoted the price in her heart: "100 taels of silver, I want cash." ”
This is the price she estimated based on the memory of the original owner, after all, the original owner's father is a merchant, and she still dabbles in these things. The price of 100 taels is not too high, and of course it is not too low, it is roughly equivalent to 100,000 yuan in the previous life.
When the fat man heard this, he groaned slightly, he looked around Su Wu's horse, then frowned slightly, and pointed to the horse: "Girl, you don't have an official seal for this horse, Huang bought it, and you have to go to the government to report, then it will cost money, if you don't report and seal Huang can't transport it elsewhere, in this way, I'll give you 80 taels, what do you think?" ”
The seal he said was actually equivalent to a sales permit issued by the government to cattle and horse dealers. However, all the cattle and horses bought by these cattle and horse dealers must be reported to the government, stamped with a red stamp, and paid fees and taxes before they can pass through the cities.
Otherwise, it will be regarded as smuggling, which will be confiscated by the government by force, which is somewhat similar to the investigation and punishment of smuggled cars in the previous life.
However, Su Wu didn't want to give up the price, although 100 taels was not low, but her horse was a good horse, she believed that someone was willing to pay this price, because at this time, many people had already come around to look at the horse.
Of course, some of them were attracted by her wedding dress to watch the excitement.
Su Wu faintly heard someone say: "I'm afraid this girl didn't escape from marriage halfway, right?" Looking at the expensive wedding dress, I guessed which big family's daughter it was. ”
"It should be, those scripts are popular in the market now, this girl is estimated to have read those scripts, and wants to learn what is said in them to find true happiness, right?"
"Alas, what a wreck."
The corners of Su Wu's mouth twitched, Nima, these bastards, you guys, a bunch of big men, do your wives know such gossip?
The fat man who had sworn in his heart saw that she didn't answer for a long time, so he was a little uncertain, and asked uncertainly, but Su Wu only replied with two words: "Not for sale." ”
The fat man choked and was about to throw off his sleeves and leave, when he suddenly heard a magnetic voice in his ears: "Dare to ask the girl, how much silver does this horse sell for?" ”
When Su Wu heard this, she was slightly stunned, her voice was so good? She followed the voice; I saw a beautiful man dressed in a brocade robe and holding a folding fan, and his demeanor was walking towards him with a smile.
Su Wu's eyes suddenly lit up, she was so handsome, her little heart couldn't help beating faster. However, she Miss Su is not the kind of nymphomaniac who loses her mind when she sees a handsome guy.
Pretended to turn around and pat the horse's head, and hurriedly wiped the unwarranted saliva from the corner of his mouth. Only then did he turn his head and cough lightly: "Cough..., 100 taels, one less point will not be sold." ”
