I transmigrated into a farming novel and started with a campervan.

Chapter 49 Food tastes better when there's a performance

He clicked his tongue, then seemed to remember something: "This girl is begging you to save her older sister?"

Xie Yu nodded, not understanding.

"It seems she has some affection for her family. Let's go and arrest her family, then they'll have to do whatever we tell them to do."

Xie Yu immediately straightened his face and said sternly, "No, how can we know she won't go down with the enemy? Besides, with this precious horse, if she takes her family away, who can catch up? What if she defectes to Dayong? Wouldn't we be handing the enemy a great help?"

General Xie said listlessly, "I was just saying that; of course I know these things."

Xie Yu then softened his tone: "Now that we have this promise, she will definitely be able to lend us a hand at crucial moments in the future. We can also take our time to persuade her with reason and emotion, and get her to serve our Great Qi. Until then, we should protect her."

She paused for a moment, then added, "She also has two older brothers; we'll try to recruit them into our military camp."

"Alright." General Xie nodded and returned to his tent.

Wang Yiyi traveled without stopping and went straight to the entrance of the town.

Once she stopped, she felt utterly exhausted, as if she had returned to the days when she was surrounded by zombies day and night.

She helped Daya out of the car, put the RV into her storage space, and then removed the blindfold from Daya's eyes.

She no longer had the strength to drive the car to a secluded spot and put it away.

"Where's the carriage?" Daya opened her eyes, looked around, and her eyes widened.

Wang Yi replied weakly, "I gave it back to someone else; he just kicked me out."

Seeing Wang Yiyi's exhausted appearance, Da Ya didn't press the matter further.

The two hadn't gone far when they saw a faint beam of light shining towards them.

Wang Yiyi immediately recognized it as the light from a flashlight and called out, "Dad."

Upon hearing the noise, Wang Dashan and Li Shi hurried over.

Daya asked curiously, "Why are you all waiting here?"

When Wang Dashan saw Daya, his eyes stung with tears. He wiped his eyes before saying, "Sanya said she was going out for a bit. I figured if she was driving the carriage, she would definitely have to return it in town. So your mother and I will wait here."

Li hugged Daya and cried bitterly, "Are you alright? You scared me to death."

Da Ya let Li cry for a while before pulling away from her embrace: "It's alright now. Third Sister found General Xie to save me, and I also got the annulment letter."

Upon hearing the news, Li cried for a while, but this time she was happy.

Before they even reached home, the flashlight went out completely. Wang Dashan felt a little guilty: "Sanya, I probably didn't keep it safe. It hasn't been working very well these past two days."

Otherwise, he wouldn't have dared to go out with a flashlight today; he kept it hidden in his sleeve the whole way.

Wang Yiyi slapped her forehead: "Oh dear, I forgot to mention, this needs to be sunned regularly. Sunlight will make it shine again."

In the post-apocalyptic world, most things are powered by solar energy, including RVs and flashlights.

Li was a diligent person. She made tofu during the day and sewed and mended clothes at night, all with the help of this flashlight.

Wang Dashan held up the flashlight and examined it closely: "This is truly a treasure."

Taking advantage of their inattention, Wang Yiyi took out another flashlight from her spatial storage: "Hey, let's use this new one. It's so late, there shouldn't be many people on the road."

The new flashlight was too bright, so Wang Dashan didn't dare use it. He quickly put the flashlight into his sleeve, took his wife and daughter, and hurried home.

Big Head and the others were still awake and were anxiously waiting inside. Hearing the noise, they rushed out to greet them.

"Third Sister, you really brought Eldest Sister back?" Er Tou was so excited he didn't know what to do, and he vigorously rubbed Wang Yiyi's cheek.

Wang Yiyi was completely bewildered by the rubbing.

Er Ya quickly freed Wang Yi from Er Tou's grasp, then raised her hand and slapped Er Tou's hand hard: "You hurt Third Sister."

Er Tou let go, grinning foolishly, and couldn't resist running around the yard a couple more times.

Big Head calmed down a bit: "I rolled out the dough, I'll go cook some now."

Li hurriedly said, "I'll go, and I'll poach another egg."

Soon, the fragrant egg noodles were served.

Wang Yi had been busy all day, and the little bit of food she ate in the morning had long been digested. She picked up the noodles and ate them in big mouthfuls.

She had just finished eating when she became so sleepy that her eyes were glazed over, so Madam Li quickly told her to go to sleep.

She slept soundly through the night, and didn't wake up until it was broad daylight.

She had just stretched when she suddenly remembered something.

She was delayed yesterday and didn't make the tofu, nor did she inform the buyers. She needs to hurry to the city to tell the shop owners.

She quickly got dressed and was about to leave.

Li called after her, "Where are you rushing off to? Come and eat!"

"I have to go to the city and tell the buyers that we don't have tofu today," Wang Yiyi replied.

"Silly child, your father and I made tofu last night." Li Shi laughed, clutching her stomach, as if she had heard something funny.

"last night?"

Wang Yiyi was somewhat shocked. After the commotion caused by the skinny monkey yesterday, she only managed to make one pot of tofu. This was made by her family after she fell asleep last night.

Seeing her stunned expression, Li laughed a few more times before explaining, "After you went to bed last night, your father remembered this matter and said that doing business is all about integrity, so he insisted on getting me up to make tofu."

Wang Yi rushed into the kitchen, looked at the five large buckets full of tofu, and then at the dark look in Li's eyes, feeling a mix of emotions.

She said softly, "Mother, go and rest."

Li had already ladled a bowl of tofu pudding from the pot: "Eat some quickly, I'll go call your father and have him take the tofu to town."

"Mmm." Wang Yiyi took the tofu pudding and responded obediently.

Just as he took a couple of bites, a commotion broke out outside. Wang Yi recognized the voices as those of Wu Shi and Jiang Mantun.

Li rolled up her sleeves and rushed out.

Wang Yiyi followed along, bowl in hand, to watch the excitement.

She couldn't miss the performance while eating.

Wu's face was still swollen from the beating Li had given her yesterday. Upon seeing Li, she immediately shouted, "Where's Da Ya? Tell that bitch to get out here!"

Early this morning, the village head came to my house with two constables, saying that her son had been sentenced to exile and that she should pack some things to send over.

Her son is a scholar, the future son-in-law of the county magistrate, how could he possibly be sentenced to exile?

She didn't believe it and cried and made a scene. In the end, the village head told her the whole story, and she had no choice but to believe it. She hurriedly packed some things for Jiang Chengzong and ran to the Wang family.

"Watch your mouth, I think you haven't been beaten enough by me." Now that she had the annulment letter, Li was full of confidence and raised her hand to slap him.

Madam Wu was furious. Madam Li had been acting like a madwoman since yesterday. She jumped up and down and started cursing: "Da Ya and our Cheng Zong haven't broken off their engagement yet. I want her to come with us to serve our Cheng Zong."

Li shook her hand and looked at Wu with disdain: "You don't know yet, do you? Jiang Chengzong has already broken off the engagement with our family. The county magistrate said it himself, and even stamped it with the official seal."

"You've never seen an official seal before, have you? Want me to show you?"
