Forced to be a concubine, I went to my husband's place to become a wealthy merchant

Chapter 346

This is even teasing her!

This was intolerable. Ye Xi angrily said, "I want to get back to my carriage!"

Wei Jue disagreed: "You don't have your own carriage, this is where you have to stay."

"Why?!" She refused to accept!

Wei Jue glanced at her and answered without hesitation: "I can do it again."

"..."

During the days that followed on the road, Ye Xi tried to follow Jin Ling back to his original carriage after taking a walk.

Either he was invited back by Xue Jiu, or he was carried back by Wei Jue halfway.

I really carried it back in the same way as carrying rice.

Ye Xi was so angry that he wanted to curse, but he stopped thinking when he heard the laughter of the transport soldiers not far away.

Wei Jue was shameless, but she wanted it, so she never had this idea again. After all, she couldn't beat a shameless person.

It has to be said that if Ye Xi hadn’t followed Wei Jue, he would never have thought of Huzhou City.

Because the road is difficult to travel on, and there are people who rob due to famine along the way.

Although the drought has eased, it is still not over for those places where the imperial court has not provided relief.

Wei Jue did not enjoy any special treatment. Her food and drink expenses were the same as other soldiers, but there seemed to be some preferential treatment for her.

For example, while others were eating dry food, she could sometimes eat some rice porridge with some pickles.

This was already the best treatment, because of the famine, the closer we got to Huzhou City, the less prey we could find on the road.

Without prey, there is naturally no meat, which makes it difficult to conserve energy. However, these soldiers seem to be used to it. They are well-organized and well-trained.

Ye Xi has always lived in a wealthy place and is somewhat not used to such a harsh environment.

The road ahead became increasingly difficult to travel on, and the carriage was shaking a lot. Ye Xi felt a little carriage-sick. Yes, carriage-sick.

Because the road was bumpy, she was bumped around very uncomfortable. Wei Jue saw her ugly expression and asked someone to make the seat cushion thicker. He held Ye Xi in his arms all the time, trying to make her suffer less bumps.

Ye Xi thought that everything would be fine once she reached her destination, but she was shocked by the scene in front of her after getting off the carriage.

It was dead silent.

There were some people outside the city gate half leaning against the city wall. When they saw them coming, they recognized them as the imperial army.

Those who still had the strength got up and walked towards them, muttering, "Sir, please give me something to eat. I'm starving."

I had no strength left and just stared at them, motionless.

Gradually, more and more people discovered them, and the people gradually began to draw closer to them.

Wei Jue frowned and asked Xue Jiu to maintain order. Xue Jiu brought a team of people to disperse the gathered people.

An aide immediately contacted the prefect of Huzhou City and asked him to come out quickly to welcome Lord Wei.

Yuan, the prefect of Huzhou City, had been waiting for the relief workers to arrive since he received the imperial edict. When he heard that the people had arrived, he was overjoyed and crawled out to greet Wei Jue.

Prefect Yuan had no doubts about the fact that Wei Jue brought a woman with him.

All he saw was Wei Jue and the relief grain behind him.

Wei Jue stepped forward to greet Prefect Yuan and told him that more food would be delivered later.

Let him first arrange people to cook the grain into porridge, and give the porridge to those who are starving to death, and then arrange to distribute the grain to each household.
