Chapter 408 [We seem to come to another world](1/2)

"Youzhou, it turns out that is Youzhou."

After a hard journey, we finally saw the boundary marker.

I come from a Jiangnan family since I was a child. Literacy is the most basic ability. However, due to years of hardship, I no longer dare to let people know my origin. So at that moment, I pretended not to understand anything and sat on the ox cart.

Acting foolishly among the piles of pots and pans.

The three characters on the boundary monument were read out by a literate government official.

When he pronounced the three words "Youzhou Realm", everyone in the migration team cheered, and at this time, the postmen who had been escorting us said goodbye.

They were couriers from the previous inn, and their leader was a dark-colored man who didn't talk much, but was honest.

I heard his loud instructions for us to continue moving forward with peace of mind. He said that once we enter the border of Youzhou, we don’t have to worry about bandits, so there is no need for them to continue escorting us.

I saw him waving from a distance and saying goodbye to us with a loud laugh. He said, congratulations to you guys, you can live a good life in the future.

Suddenly he came back on horseback and looked at each of us carefully. Until he found that each of us looked pretty good, he relaxed and said goodbye again and left.

When he ran very far away, I could still hear his laughing voice and kept saying: "You must remember, hire a tour guide before entering the city. Without the guidance of a tour guide, the bustling

Youzhou will dazzle you! The most important thing is that the tour guide can help you settle in quickly. So, don’t be reluctant to spend the hiring money..."

Finally, his warning voice could no longer be heard.

He and the postmen were also invisible.

A little girl was lying on the side of the bullock cart, watching the postmen leave with tears in their eyes, and cried: "Niuniu can't bear to leave them, they are very, very good people."

We adults felt sad after hearing this, and immediately felt a deep sense of reluctance.

"Yes, they are all very good people. Just like Niuniu said, I really can't bear to let them go."

We are grateful to every postman who escorted us.

Along this road, we will pass by a post station every thirty miles, and every time we pass by a post station, we will definitely receive free reception.

Food and drink are available.

As long as we are in short supply of clothes and bedding, we will surely provide them.

There was even a rough soldier who saw the dust caused by our migration and even wanted to help us wash our clothes, but it turned out to be a big joke that time.

He took advantage of the latter half of the night, waiting for us to fall asleep, and then walked in quietly, preparing to carry the dirty clothes out quietly.

However, when he reached out to touch the dirty clothes, he might have been too nervous, so he accidentally touched the wrong place where he put the clothes.

He touched me.

That night, all us women laughed loudly and joked: "Hey, which brother is trying to do something bad? If you are really greedy, just tell your sisters-in-law. Sister-in-laws are obedient.

Lie down and let you, a little soldier, have a taste. You walked in blindly and frightened us into thinking it was a thief."

There were even women who giggled and deliberately pretended to push me onto the bed, laughing and saying: "Come on, come on, this bitch has been pushed down, brother soldier, let's see if you have the courage."

"

Ha ha ha ha!

That night, the whole house was filled with joyous laughter.

We women are really scary when we talk about dirty things. We can make men feel ashamed and want to find a crack in the ground to crawl into.

The rough little soldier's face turned red.

The postmaster of the post station rushed in, kicked him down with a fierce kick, and scolded: "You idiot, how can you touch someone's body by touching their clothes? Fortunately, these sisters-in-law are enlightened and don't blame you for being rough. Hurry up."

Get out of here, don’t be embarrassed here..."

The little soldier ran away in a panic.

But before leaving, he didn't forget to hold our dirty clothes.

He really helped us starch and wash our clothes.

This interesting soldier boy, he seems to have forgotten that we are all women, and how can a woman not know how to wash and cook?

In fact, he knows that he actually pities us, so he wants to help us more, even if it is rough laundry.

As Niuniu said with tears in her eyes, these postmen are all very good people.

The experience along the way has been great!



After we crossed the Youzhou boundary marker, we basically arrived at the place.

Only then did we finally understand why the last batch of postmen gave such instructions. Sure enough, Youzhou is really different from other places, and there is a shocking novelty everywhere.

For example, the official road under your feet has a dark color, and those paved on the ground should be stones, but there is no loose feeling of stones at all, as if a special grease has been used to pour all the stones together.

From the boundary monument of Youzhou to the city gate of Youzhou, the official road for fifty miles is actually paved with such stones.

"Oh my God, how much is this going to cost?"

People in the team kept exclaiming in amazement.

And I noticed the name of Guandao.

"Youhe Highway!"

This name confuses me.

Although I don’t know what a highway is, I am very sure that this is the name of the official road, because every one hundred steps or so, a small stone tablet half a foot high will appear on both sides of the official road, and each small stone tablet has

On it, the words "Youhe Highway" will be marked.

In addition to marking these four words, there are also numbers marked below. Through constant observation and calculation, I slowly began to guess the purpose of the stone tablet... There is a stone tablet every one hundred steps, which is obviously used to calculate the journey.

Oh my God, are Youzhou people so meticulous in their work?

I subconsciously held my little daughter's hand, and I felt a great longing for the future life in my heart. Youzhou, it turns out this is Youzhou.



We continued walking along the official road and saw a towering and huge stone monument.

Monument to Suppress Bandits!

"If you take one hundred steps here, all the strife in the world will be peaceful!"

When the literate government officer read the words on the tablet loudly, the entire migration team looked confused and confused. Only I understood a lot in an instant.

I come from a scholarly family, and I know more than that yamen servant. But I still didn't show it, I just exclaimed along with everyone.

Just when we were exclaiming in surprise, we were lucky enough to see the power of that giant monument... A group of gangsters were chasing people, but they suddenly stopped in front of the monument.

That man named Zhao Wuji was indeed useful when he escaped before the giant monument. Not only did the pursuers dare not pursue him anymore, but they also did not dare to take action even if they were close at hand.

Even the leader of the group of pursuers turned around and killed one of his own people with just one blow.

At that time, everyone was frightened, fearing that the strongman was going to attack.

Only I could vaguely guess what the leader was thinking.

The leader said something twice in a row, saying that Zhao Wuji might rise after entering Youzhou, and once Zhao Wuji rises, he will definitely seek revenge on them.

So in order to settle the grudge, the leader directly killed the person who had a grudge against Zhao Wuji.

Just a huge monument can scare away a group of powerful people.

And that Zhao Wuji only had the possibility of rising, but the leader wanted to kill his own men to settle the grudges.

Everyone was amazed at the scene that day. The women were all shouting and chattering, saying things like, ‘This giant monument is really awesome.

Even the few men in the team, as well as those government officials who had seen the world, could only sigh with emotion and were shocked by the effectiveness of the monument in suppressing bandits.

Only I felt huge excitement in my heart.

I looked up at that huge monument, as if I saw a mighty force that overwhelms the world. And in a place shrouded by that mighty force, who would dare to bully the weak people?

At that moment, I held the child's hand tightly with both hands. Although I didn't speak, I kept screaming in my heart.

"Child, child, this is Youzhou, this is the Youzhou we are going to live in."



We continued walking along the official road and met three tour guides who came to solicit business.

One of the tall men seemed to have a Shandong accent, so the government officials in the team unanimously decided that hiring this tour guide would be the most suitable for them.

But the person who calls the shots in the team is not the yamen servant, but Zhao Laosi's eldest daughter-in-law, Zhao Tianshi.

Haha, the term "eldest daughter-in-law" sounds very bluffing, right?

In fact, it is full of bitterness and suffering.

At the beginning, there were only three men in Zhaojia Village, and each man had to bear a huge responsibility. There were seventeen widows in the village, and they had to be taken into their homes to live.

Especially Zhao Laosi, he is the best man in pretending, so he has the most women to take care of.

The eldest daughter-in-law, the second daughter-in-law, the third daughter-in-law, the fourth daughter-in-law...

It sounds like they are all his wives, but in fact he has only slept with one of them, and the other women were only kept by him in name.
To be continued...
