Quick Transmigration: Can This Kind of Scum Become the Chosen One?

Chapter 208: Cannon Fodder in the Confiscated Property and Exile Story 13

Jiang He was watching the play from the back when Aunt Wang suddenly started looking around and then gave her a malicious smile.

Is this some kind of malicious scheme against her?

Is it money, medicine, or people?

Aunt Wang has finalized the location of the third household and plans to go there during her rest time to discuss buying a cart together with them.

This way, Ping'er and Yi'er can rest on the cart for a while.

We can have Yi'er help push the stroller tomorrow.

This way, Ping'er won't have to walk anymore.

I just don't know if the third branch of the family has any money.

They should at least come up with five taels of silver.

However, since they were able to remove the chains, they must have had some money on them.

If they really run out of money, they should have Mrs. Sun take off her jewelry and use it as collateral.

Aunt Wang walked to Jiang Ping's side and walked with Jiang Yangxu.

He whispered his plans to them.

After all, buying shuttle buses costs money, so we need to discuss it with them.

Once that money is spent, she'll have no more silver left.

The money on Jiang Yangyi was all their savings.

Jiang Ping wholeheartedly agreed to the idea of ​​buying a handcart.

God knows how envious she was of Jiang Yu being able to sit on the cart.

Her legs are about to be ruined.

She's willing to spend money even if it costs her.

Let's get through this difficult time first, and we'll think of other ways to make money later.

Otherwise, she probably wouldn't have made it to her destination and would have died of exhaustion on the way.

Jiang Yangyi thought about it and agreed.

It's also feasible to partner with the three-household owners to buy a handcart.

That way he can lie down and rest for a while.

Otherwise, his leg would probably be ruined sooner or later.

Jiang Yangyi felt that once he stopped, he probably wouldn't be able to walk anymore.

The three of them made up their minds to go and buy a cart from the third branch of the family during their rest period.

As for whether the third wife will agree, this is a win-win situation for everyone, so why wouldn't she agree?

The three of them continued their journey, their steps becoming lighter.

Jiang He listened to the three people's discussion.

They've really set their sights on them.

Of those three, one has a crippled leg, one has a crippled foot, and one is a woman. Who will push this cart after we buy it?

So you're going to let Jiang's father do this hard labor?

When the time comes, they'll say they're injured and can't walk anymore, and they'll all have to lie down on that cart, turning their family into corpse-pullers.

That's wishful thinking.

Jiang He shook Sun's hand.

"He'er, what's wrong? Are you tired? Let Daddy carry you for a while."

As she spoke, Mrs. Sun was about to take out a cloth belt, saying that she would use it to secure the baby while carrying him, making it easier.

Jiang Haoyun heard this and decided to carry Jiang He on his back as well.

"No, Father, Mother, let's move to the side. I have something to tell you."

Mr. and Mrs. Jiang followed Jiang He to the side of the group.

"He'er, what's wrong?"

"Father, Mother, I just saw Aunt Wang looking around, and when she saw me, she smiled at me. That smile was a bit creepy, like she was up to something bad."

Mr. and Mrs. Jiang both looked towards Aunt Wang's direction.

The three men all wore strange smiles, the kind of smiles one has after successfully outmaneuvering someone.

I'm already so tired from traveling, how can I still manage to smile?

It seems Jiang He wasn't wrong; they must have some plans.

Moreover, he seemed so relaxed because he had a great deal of confidence in what would happen next.

The three families had no connection with them, so why would they scheme against them?

Here, the only things you can calculate are money, food, and people.

Sun kept looking at Aunt Wang and noticed that Jiang Yangyi's feet were already stained with blood.

Is this a foot injury, or a very serious one?

If I remember correctly, this injury appeared last night, and Jiang Yangyi even had a fever last night.

I guess it wasn't treated properly; the wound is worse again today.

Could it be a drug of manipulation?

But they never took out the medicine, so how can we be sure they had it?

So they're trying to steal their money?

If you have money, you can exchange things with the soldiers.

They're not stupid; why would they give away their money?

Mr. and Mrs. Jiang couldn't think of a solution for a moment.

But as long as you stay away from them, these schemes won't reach them.

The three quickened their pace and walked towards the front of the group.

The three of them walked all the way to the front of the line.

Soldiers were clearing the way ahead, along with several horse-drawn carts loaded with supplies and empty flatbed carts.

These were brought by the officers and soldiers specifically for doing some business.

The old lady bought her cart from here.

The price was clearly marked: ten taels of silver per cart.

In the group, apart from the old lady, the elders from the other families who were able to afford it also brought a cart.

There were also some who were interested in the cart, but hesitated because of the ten taels of silver.

When Mr. and Mrs. Jiang saw the cart and heard the discussions around them, they were also tempted.

“Why don’t we buy a cart too, so He’er can sit on it?” Sun suggested.

She had money; spending ten taels of silver would make the journey easier, and it was worth it.

“The cart is so big, you two can sit on it, and I’ll push you around.” Jiang Haoyun also thought this was a good idea.

"Father and Mother, if we buy a cart, will they try to steal it from us? They fought over the cart that Grandma bought, didn't they?"

Upon hearing this, Mr. and Mrs. Jiang realized that if they bought a cart, they would definitely want to come and ride along.

If it's just a minor collision, that's fine. The worst thing is if they just snatch the car away, leaving the mother and daughter without a spot.

The eldest son's wife, Zhao Shi, and Aunt Zhao, as well as the second son's wife, Aunt Wang.

Could it be that Aunt Wang and the others were plotting this?

The more I think about it, the more likely it seems.

This cart was definitely reserved for the women.

Li and Jiang Yu have already taken the old lady's cart and won't be coming here.

The eldest son's wife, Zhao Shi, and her aunt might shamelessly try to freeload a seat.

The four of them could squeeze in if they squeezed together.

Moreover, this way, Jiang Qingyun and Jiang Yangping would definitely have to help push the cart, and it would also allow Jiang Haoyun to switch hands and make things easier.

However, when Aunt Wang and her two companions, those three injured people, clung to them purely to take advantage of them.

Everyone's just here to hitch a ride; there's not even anyone to help push the car.

They also want to oust the Sun family.

"Then why don't we cooperate directly with the eldest son's family and buy this cart? That way they won't be able to squeeze in."

"But if we cooperate with the main branch, then we'll be tied to them from now on."

The Sun family was unwilling.

Both she and Jiang He have secrets, and it's hard to say whether the eldest son's family will discover anything if they spend all their time together.

They had never dealt with the main branch of the family and didn't know what kind of people they were, but those who could send their daughter to be the third prince's wife must have quite a bit of ambition.

There are still hidden dangers.

Sun preferred that they live their own lives.

After much deliberation, they decided to hitchhike.
