The Ordinary Man's Guide to Fast Travel

Chapter 174 Exile 1

The system's words enlightened Chao Yao. She immediately understood that if she wanted to gain more merits in the future, she needed to increase her influence and expand her scope of influence.

Merit is a very good thing. It can not only improve your cultivation, but also make your soul more stable.

"Let's go to the next world. I can't wait to enter the new world and continue to do good deeds. This feeling of traveling to different worlds, experiencing different lives, and having different identities is really wonderful."

Chaoyao likes this kind of time travel. Growing up from a weakling will really make people more and more confident.

"Okay, since your emotions are already drawn out, let's just go down there."

In the same familiar way, Chao Yao came to the new world again.

"Sister, please take me out to play. I want to eat the candied haws on the street. I heard that there is a store on the street that makes candied haws with other fruits. I really want to try it!"

Just as Chao Yao came to his senses, he heard the voice of a young child.

She turned around and saw a boy about four or five years old.

"Wait for me for a while, I still have some things I bought before in my room."

Chao Yuebai looked at Chao Yao in confusion, "Sister, when did you buy it?"

"You don't follow me all the time, so how do you know? This is actually a surprise for you from your sister. Just wait for me here."

Chao Yao ran back to her room. She needed to accept the memory immediately. It would only take two seconds, but she needed to calm down.

Returning to her room, she received all the memories.

Chao Yao now lives in Shangjin City. His father Chao Tiancai is a sixth-rank official. To put it nicely, he is a compiler in the Hanlin Academy. To put it bluntly, he is just a writer.

These were all small matters. The Chao family, to which Chao Yao belonged, was a branch of the Chaoguo Duke's Mansion in Shangjincheng.

But it still matters if you can’t bear it!

I don't know where the Duke of Chaoguo's Mansion got the courage to rebel with others. According to the law, his entire clan will be beheaded.

The other branches will be exiled three thousand miles away. According to the country's territorial situation, the final location of exile will be in the north where there is ice and snow all year round.

As one of the branches, the Chao family would naturally be exiled.

And today, in another hour, the entire Chao family will be arrested and thrown into prison.

Because Chao Yao's family, who lived and worked honestly, had never thought that they would encounter such a problem, so compared to those wealthy families who were prepared, their family really had nothing and their house was directly ransacked.

They had only walked two hundred miles out of Shangjin City when the whole family died one by one, except Chao Tiancai who survived out of hatred.

He lived in the north, and then found an opportunity to escape to other countries. I don’t know how he did it, but when we saw him again ten years later, he had become a general of other countries.

The first thing he did after taking office was to start a war and then wipe out all the people from the Chao family who had targeted them during their exile.

At that time, all these people had returned to Shangjin City. After all, these people had not participated in the so-called rebellion at all. Therefore, when the ten-year period was up and the emperor was changed, these people returned.

Chao Tiancai was indeed a genius, but he was a genius in war. Later, he launched many wars to attack the current country.

He was like a madman. In his eyes, he had no home anyway, so he might as well kill all the people who made him homeless.

Chao Yao shuddered all over. He really didn't expect that this father who looked weak and gentle could be so crazy and paranoid.

Chao Tiancai really loved his family very much. He had a good wife and well-behaved children, but in the end he had nothing.

Chao Yao looked at the time outside. In another half an hour, Chao Tian would have to go home.

This body is now fifteen years old and has a childhood sweetheart, Lu Zonghe, who lives next door.

As soon as she heard the name, she knew he was not her man. Thinking back to her previous life, she knew that the Lu family would come to cancel the engagement on the day she was exiled.

It just so happened that she was too lazy to think of other reasons to cancel the engagement.

Chao Yao calculated what she had to do. The first thing she had to do was to take out a string of candied haws from the space. She had to coax Chao Yuebai who was sitting outside, otherwise he would follow her all the time, which would prevent her from dealing with other things.

"Yue Bai, look, I didn't lie to you, did I? This is a candied haws for you. The hawthorn inside is absolutely delicious, big and sweet."

Chao Yuebai's eyes widened and he stared at the big string of candied haws in Chao Yao's hand.

It was really big, at least half a person’s height.

Like a string of crystal clear rubies, sparkling with alluring light.

"Sister, you are indeed my sister!"

Chao Yuebai picked up the candied haws and couldn't help but take a bite. The sugar coating melted in his mouth instantly, releasing a sweet taste, as if all the troubles were dissolved by the sweetness at this moment.

The flesh of the candied haws is sweet and sour, forming a perfect match with the sweetness of the sugar coating, leaving people with an endless aftertaste.

Chao Yuebai couldn't describe it, but he just felt that this string of candied haws tasted better than any he had ever eaten before.

"If my sister opens a candied haws shop in the future, there will definitely be a lot of people buying them."

"Okay, okay, as long as you don't bankrupt this store. I have other things to do, so you stay at home alone for now. If you feel bored, go find mother."

"Okay, okay, go ahead. Go ahead."

Chao Yao left his yard and went to the kitchen immediately.

Fortunately, there were not many people in the family, only two maids and two servants.

They should have almost finished cooking by now, and Chaotian would have to go home soon after that.

Chao Yao came to the kitchen and saw the cook was there, so she walked over and said hello.

"Mrs. Chen, is the meal ready?"

"Miss, the rice is almost ready and is being heated in the steamer."

Chao Yao opened the lid of the largest pot and saw that, sure enough, all the food was already on it.

"You go out first. I want to make a specialty dish for my parents today."

The original body naturally knew how to cook. This was an essential life skill, and Chao Tiancai had required her to learn it since she was a child.

"Okay, Miss. Do you need me to light the fire for you?"

"No need for that. I think the fire is pretty strong. You can just go out first."

"Okay, slave, please leave."

After Chen Niang walked out and disappeared, Chao Yao hurriedly put all the things in the kitchen into the space.

Wherever he went, he didn't give a penny and even took away the pots.

I will have to be exiled in the future, who knows if this pot can be used in the place of exile.

It's better to take it away now than to have to pay for it later.
