Reborn as an Ugly Wife in the Countryside

As Qi Ming ate alongside, he handed over food to his master and concernedly asked, "Master, is your injury alright?"

The extraordinary gentleman looked up at the people eating around him and then spoke, "Be careful when you talk, call me young master. I’m fine, holding up well, don’t worry."

Qi Ming followed orders and dared not make any more sound, silently watching his master eat before eating himself.

Yang Ming didn’t know what those two were saying. After finishing his meal, he glanced at the sky and the people around him. Seeing that everyone had finished their meal, he spoke up, "Everyone, get ready, we need to continue our journey."

Upon hearing this, everyone got up swiftly and took their positions.

The two who were hitching a ride also came over, and a brother asked, "Store Manager, which carriage will those two sit in?"

Yang Ming looked at the convoy, and seeing that the carriage he sat in had fewer things, he spoke, "Let them ride with me."

Then he called out to the two, "Get on the carriage, we’re about to set off."

The two walked to the front of the convoy, got on the horse carriage, found a place to sit, and said, "Thanks, brother."

Yang Ming didn’t say anything, just smiled, and the convoy set off.

Just like before, moving slowly ahead.

On the road, the extraordinary gentleman spoke first, "Brother, we don’t know your name yet. I am Ye Jinyan."

Yang Ming thought the two deliberately went aside to avoid conversation, so he hadn’t paid attention. Now that the other party has initiated, he politely replied, "I am Yang Ming."

"Brother Yang, what is the destination of this convoy?"

Actually, he had casually said Shanshi County earlier because the journey to Shanshi County was longer. Even if this convoy didn’t go to Shanshi County, they could still give them a lift for part of the way before getting off midway. As for the story of the carriage leaving and him being unable to walk well, it was all fabricated to prevent Yang Ming from being suspicious. Otherwise, how would he explain his luxurious attire appearing in the wilderness?

"The convoy is heading to Lin County. If you want to go to Shanshi County, you can hire a horse carriage after reaching Lin County." Yang Ming didn’t mention that he himself was going to Shanshi County. These two were clearly hiding something, and he didn’t need to reveal everything. It’s just a ride, and they’ll part ways at Lin County.

Seeing Yang Ming had no intention to continue chatting, Ye Jinyan also ceased speaking.

However, Qi Ming seemed somewhat dissatisfied. He thought many people sought to speak with his master, yet this young fellow Yang Ming didn’t know how to appreciate it and made his master speak in such a humbled manner.

Ye Jinyan noticed Qi Ming’s sentiment, and with a glance, Qi Ming dared not anymore.

The group continued on their way like this.

Suddenly, a brother spoke up, "Store Manager, the road ahead is narrow and bumpy; you need to get down and push a bit; it’ll be fine once past this section."

Yang Ming nodded; they had traversed this road a few times, and each time, they needed to get off here so everyone could control the carriage to prevent it from falling.

"Please, Ye brother, come down as well; it’ll be quick."

Ye Jinyan nodded and got off the carriage with Qi Ming.

This was an uphill section; everyone was ready, with people pulling the carriage from the front and pushing from the back.

Pushing while shouting, "One, two, three, put some effort in!"

"One, two, three, put some effort in!"
