After dressing as a superb old woman, I am bound to the power system
Chapter 27: Making Friends
"They are from Yanghuai. We went to Tongzhou and we were on the way. They even asked our family if we wanted to go together? I think this family is either rich or noble!"
Duan Mingqing listened to a few words and looked at his second brother with disapproval. No matter how the stranger looked at him, he could not reveal his family background.
Qiao Lan didn't have many ideas. It would be good to go together on this chaotic road, but they didn't know whether this group of people was good or bad.
"Let's walk first and talk about it on the way. We can help others, but don't expect others to help us," Qiao Lan said.
After listening to Qiao Lan's words, everyone in the Duan family stared at the crackling fire in silence.
Several more people gathered in front of the Duan family's carriage. A middle-aged man, with a teenager and a few years old children, introduced himself as Yu and Yu Zhao. Those who came with them were children from the family who were brought to them.
Qiao Lan said hello. In addition, they also carried some things in their hands.
"There is nothing to take with me before I go out, so I just brought these as a thank you gift to the old lady. Thank you for building a bridge and letting us come over." He said and handed over a small bundle.
Qiao Lan: "With a little effort, no need for gifts."
"No, no, old lady, you must accept it, otherwise I, Yu Zhao, will feel uneasy! It's not a valuable thing, just treat it as a token of appreciation! Accept it, you must accept it!" Yu Zhao said and went to Duan Ming.
Congratulations.
Duan Mingjing suddenly had a baggage in his arms, which he could neither pick up nor throw away.
After saying this beautiful scene, Yu Zhao asked the two children to kowtow to Qiao Lan, "Thank you, madam!"
After saying this, the two children immediately knelt down and banged their heads.
Compared with Chen Shu's impeccable approach, Yu Zhao is obviously much more straightforward.
"Old madam, I, Yu Zhao, am not a learned person. When I was young, I found a boxing and kicking master to study under me. I was not very good at studying, but I gained a lot of courage, so I found a few masters and opened an escort agency. I don't have any ambitions either.
I just hope to earn some money to support my wife and children..."
Yu Zhao sat down by the fire and started talking to himself.
The two children stood behind him, their heads lowered and a little reserved.
"... When running escorts outside, you not only rely on courage, but also loyalty. You have to repay favors from others. If it weren't for the old lady's bamboo bridge, I don't know how the carriage would have come here today." Yu Zhao said with a smile.
, went in a big circle and praised Qiao Lan again.
"So I'm bringing you some thank-you gifts, but you must keep them, otherwise I'll feel uneasy and won't be able to sleep! If there's anything you need help with on the way, Madam, just call me. There's no ink in Yu's head, but
I am full of strength..." Yu Zhao said with an enthusiastic smile.
"Don't be too polite, Mr. Yu, we are also ordinary farmers," Qiao Lan said.
"Old Madam, you are being humble. Anyway, just call me when you are useful. I will be there when you call. I won't disturb everyone's rest. I will leave first. Old Madam is in good health!" said Yu Zhao.
He took his two children and ran away quickly.
On the way to escape, Yu Zhao kept looking at the Duan family.
Yu Zhao traveled all over the world and saw a lot of things. As soon as he saw the Duan family's carriage, he realized something was wrong with the carriage.
There was no one sitting on the carriage, and the ruts were still so deep, which proved that there was a lot of stuff on the carriage.
Yu Zhao is not sure what this thing is!
He looked at the Duan family for a while, and their demeanor was extraordinary.
If he had only seen the Duan family, men, women, old and young, walking on the road at first, he would have thought that this family had good human nature. The war was in turmoil, and there were many people who abandoned their sons and daughters. Their family had brought everyone together, which was really impressive.
Yu Zhao also observed Uncle Sun for a while and found that this man should have been doing menial work all year round, which meant that the family had servants to take care of them and their family background was not bad.
In these troubled times, they can take the whole family with them and carry a lot of goods. What kind of ordinary people are driving the carriage?
When he saw Qiao Lan building a bamboo bridge, he confirmed his judgment.
Whose old lady knows how to build a bridge? Even if some old craftsmen come over, it is impossible to build this bamboo bridge so quickly and stably.
At that time, Yu Zhao had only one thought in his mind: to get to know this family and make good friends with them.
Yu Zhao was sitting in front of the fire, and the Duan family was also looking at him.
Duan Mingqing carefully observed the man's face and hands. There were many calluses on his hands, especially at the tiger's mouth, which proved that he had been holding weapons or reins all year round. His accent was mixed, and his skin was dark. He looked like a weather-beaten face that had traveled extensively.
And the shoes on this man's feet are indeed the wear-resistant mille-layer sole shoes that are often sold in shops.
The two children he brought here should be used to relax the vigilance of Duan's family. The two children look quite similar to him. The younger son looks good, but he has a gray face and doesn't wear the same clothes.
Duan Mingqing followed the firelight and saw the corner of the red rope hanging out of the neck of the child's inner garment. It was very bright and valuable. It should be hung with something like a longevity lock or a jade pendant for the child's protection.
This man said that he was smart and strong, but he was actually smarter than he thought.
The escorts over there also need this kind of insight.
However, Duan Mingqing did not say anything. His methods of judging people were all based on experience. He knew people and their faces but not their hearts. The main thing was to look at the old lady. He felt that the old lady should be more powerful than him.
Most of the time when Yu Zhao was talking, Qiao Lan was silent, or could only deal with one or two sentences.
Yu Zhao didn't care, as all capable people are like this.
However, in reality, Qiao Lan was communicating with the system in her mind.
"Why are there more and more gangs like this? Do you have the red name function? Help me see through them at a glance!" Qiao Lan complained in her heart.
The system said politely, [Dear host, no. It is up to the host to identify whether this person is good or bad, but don’t worry, host. The system will issue any information based on the actual situation. Even if you are in danger, the system
We will also work hard to release tasks to help you escape danger.】
"……It's so kind of you."
【It is our responsibility to be good to the host!】
Duan Mingjing opened the gift from Yu Zhao. He opened a rag and found an oil paper bag and a small jar inside.
Duan Mingjing was puzzled and opened it for a while, and finally discovered that the oil paper bag contained various kinds of preserved fruits and meat, and the small jar contained a jar of fine salt.
"Mom...someone brought salt to our house!" Duan Mingjing twisted a few grains of salt to taste.
The salt looks good, white and has large grains. It should be sea salt. Sea salt is not cheap!
But now that their family has a recipe for making fine salt, this sea salt is no longer valuable to them.
"Keep it, let it go first." Qiao Lan's opinion was still the same, don't touch the stranger's things first.
"Mom, you can't store this dried fruit or meat. It's hot in summer and it will probably go bad after a few days." Duan Mingjing said and swallowed.
I haven’t eaten meat for a long time…
The dried meat that Yu Zhao sent over was no better than the ones from Chen Shu. The ones from Chen Shu had been marinated and could be kept for a long time.
