Transmigrated as the Treacherous Official's Childhood Sweetheart-Chapter 319 - 318: Arrived
She looked at the tall city walls, majestic and imposing, with two rows of stern soldiers standing below!
She said to the coachman, "Let’s get off here, we’ll wait for someone in this place."
Then she pulled back, and said to the person inside the carriage, "Sister Lu He, let’s wait for Xiao Chen here in Bronze City. We’ve arrived a few days earlier than planned, and we can send a message to Xiao Chen when the time comes."
Her tone carried a hint of excitement, after many days of a long journey, they had finally arrived.
Lu He listened to her and replied with an "Okay."
The two started to pack their belongings, taking everything without leaving anything behind.
Ye Zhi took out the prepared silver note of three hundred taels and gave it to the coachman, instructing, "Keep this money safe, as it’s a long journey back. Our trip here was smooth, but it doesn’t mean your return will be the same. Though the world seems peaceful, there are still many thieves."
The coachman, a fifty-something uncle with many wrinkles, looked simple and honest. After hearing her words, he solemnly thanked her and headed back the way they came.
As the horse hooves faded away, the carriage disappeared from sight as well.
New to the city, coupled with their similar personalities, they happily entered the city.
Bronze City wasn’t as prosperous as the Capital City, but it was still not bad~
Shops lined both sides of the street, carriages and horses glittering, and streams of people passing by. Not far away, the robust shouting of vendors could be heard, occasionally interrupted by the long neigh of a horse. The autumn wind brushing their faces, the high-flying merchant flags, and the melodious singing from the theater echoed high and low~
Ye Zhi felt unbelievably wonderful.
Does Little Traitor often come down from Dragon Tiger Mountain to visit this market?
Thinking about the boy’s picturesque and aloof appearance, she wandered around the market curiously, bursting into laughter, "Hehe~"
Lu He, confused, asked her with a laugh, "What’s so funny?"
The persistently cross-dressing Ye Zhi, now sporting a fake beard and thick eyebrows, shook her slightly tanned little face, "Nothing, just thought of something funny. Let’s go find an inn to stay in now, we can change back tomorrow after disguising as men throughout the journey to avoid trouble."
Similarly dressed, Lu He responded, "Okay."
The two looked for an inn as they walked.
During her years at the Ye Mansion, Lu He helped with various tasks she could and learned new things as well~
The Ye Family also paid her normal wages!
Over the years, she saved up some money, and brought silver notes on this trip, so they wouldn’t live like in the past, specifically looking for cheap inns to stay in...
Besides, she also brought the pampered Ah Zhi!
No matter what, the inn has to be somewhat classy~
The two walked to the slightly secluded end of the street, but didn’t find any inn they liked, so they planned to turn back and check another street.
"No, I don’t want to marry Landlord Liu as a concubine. He’s so old, even older than father. I don’t want to go, if you want to marry him, then you go yourself."
A woman’s crying voice came through.
Ye Zhi and Lu He exchanged a glance and tacitly walked towards the source of the voice.
A woman’s fierce voice retorted, "Whether you marry or not is not up to you, you little wench! How dare you despise Landlord Liu? It’s your fortune he’s interested in you. He offered a bride price of five hundred taels. Where are you going to get that kind of money? Landlord Liu is generous, there’s no one more suitable to be my son-in-law."
The young woman’s cries echoed, "Father, that Landlord Liu is so old, I won’t marry, I won’t..."
The fierce woman said, "Crying to your father is useless, I’m your stepmother, you have to listen to me. You’ll see how well-off you’ll be, and appreciate me when you’re eating well and living richly."
