Chapter 293
"This is not for you," Qingbian said, "Please bear with it for a moment, young lady. I will bring you some food later."
"Thank you so much."
Shen Jiao didn't believe it at all, and Qingbian really didn't come.
Qian Huaer threw a cold steamed bun over and said, "Eat something. We only have two meals a day here, and the next one won't be available until very late."
Shen Jiao picked up the steamed bun and said, "You have a kind heart."
Qian Huaer just smiled and didn't say anything.
Shen Jiao broke the steamed bun open and saw that it was full of insects.
"You didn't eat it," she sighed, "What a pity."
As soon as the steamed buns were thrown on the ground, the bugs crawled back quickly.
"It's strange that I can eat it."
Shen Jiao said so many unpleasant things yesterday, but today she is not angry at all and even gives her food to eat. Is this believable?
Only fools don't pay attention.
However, Qian Huaer didn't think much of killing her. She just let it go since the assassination failed. She said, "What you said makes a lot of sense."
"I don't like to talk nonsense."
What Qian Huaer is saying now is nonsense.
Shen Jiao was tired of listening to it.
"You are really unpleasant. In our village, no one will want to play with you if you talk like that." Qian Huaer complained.
Shen Jiao said, "Then your mother must have no friends."
Qian's eldest sister-in-law's mouth is not much better than hers.
"What do you know?" Qian Huaer said unhappily. "My mother said that girls won't suffer any harm if they are more aggressive. She may look fierce, but she is actually a very good person."
"Would a good person think of selling me out?"
"She definitely has no other options." Qian Huaer said without a trace of doubt.
Shen Jiao acted like a good person and told the truth:
"You really understand your mother."
If she could scrape together enough money, perhaps she wouldn't have such bad intentions. Saying that he was the best person was a bit too much, but if this was a peaceful and prosperous time, she might never have such bad intentions in her life.
Qian Huaer was prejudiced against Shen Jiao's words. Everything she said sounded like sarcasm. She emphasized, "It's true. Have you met my brother Goudan? He's a very kind-hearted child. Everyone says his temper is exactly like my mother's when she was little."
"You don't look like your mother?"
Qian Huaer said: "What daughter doesn't look like her mother? My temper is very similar to my mother's now."
What is the eldest sister-in-law of the Qian family like now?
He is somewhat sarcastic and will do anything for his family, even at the cost of others' lives, to protect his children.
"You are all very brave, but unfortunately you and I are not compatible."
The mother wanted to harm her, the daughter wanted to cheat her, and they only thought that the son could be associated with a good person.
Shen Jiao didn't want to pay any attention to her. She sat there for a long time before someone came to find her.
"Girl?" Shen Jiao pretended to be surprised. "But is there any result?"
Bai Shan laughed heartily and said, "Got it, got it! Your life is saved! The military advisor is truly a sage! Don't stay here! Come out and have a drink with me!"
She grabbed Shen Jiao's hand and led her out. If she wasn't a little short, she would have put her arm around her shoulders.
In the previous breath, he was still a prisoner who didn't know whether he could survive, but in this breath he became a military advisor.
This official was promoted really quickly.
Shen Jiao remained neither arrogant nor discouraged, and diligently replied, "Thank you for your kindness, young lady. I wonder what the master and Mother Xue have to say?"
"I haven't had time to ask about this in detail. Anyway, it's good news. Let's talk about it while we eat."
Shen Jiao felt a little uneasy when she heard her say that, but she didn't ask what she meant.
How can you celebrate something like this when you're not sure about it? Aren't you afraid of celebrating in vain?
Even if she wasn't afraid, Shen Jiao was still afraid that she would get angry and chop off her head.
Bai Shan saw her worry and led her to a dungeon and said, "Military Advisor, don't worry. The replacement has already arrived. He just got drunk and has gone to rest."
Shen Jiao: ...even more worried.
"I see," Shen Jiao said, "They came so quickly. I guess the master and Xue A'niang pity you and have planned this for a long time. They just need an opportunity."
"Perhaps. Never mind. It's a good thing someone comes to exchange you. Once I've explained everything here clearly, I'll take you into the city. When we're ready to make achievements, I'll be the vanguard and you'll be my military advisor. You'll be made a marquis and a prime minister in no time."
She is really confident.
"Thank you so much for your kindness, young lady. Even if I die in pieces, I will definitely repay you."
You have feelings, I have intentions, and we both seem to get along pretty well.
Hongsan really couldn't ask anything because she didn't even see the figures of Xue A Niang and her master being blocked outside.
Anyway, the result was good, so she didn't care much about it.
Xue A Niang is a very busy person, and her master is not someone she can meet, so this kind of thing is very normal.
The three of them did not suspect anything, because the man who came was one of the master's advisers, someone that even Xue A Niang had to respect. If he didn't really want to replace Bai Shan, there was no need for such a person to come.
Now that things have come to this, Shen Jiao can only hope that he is overthinking it.
However, out of caution, she still asked, "Can this person tell me what arrangements the master and Mother Xue have for the young lady in the future?"
"Are you drunk?" Bai Shan laughed. "Didn't I just tell you, I'm a striker?"
Shen Jiao: Is it just a coincidence? She gets everything she wants?
"That's really what you get when you ask for it..."
"Why do you have that expression? Just say whatever you want to say. I'm in a good mood right now. I won't kill you no matter what you say." Bai Shan waved her hand and said generously.
Shen Jiao smiled and said, "It's not a big deal. I just don't understand this arrangement. Aside from the two girls, Green Whip and Red Umbrella, the girls who usually use them are probably those defective items, right?"
"There are also some small minions who are of no use. They can be used to kidnap villagers, but they can't be relied upon for anything else."
Bai Shan said this with some disdain.
"Those people were also adopted by Mother Xue."
But they have no brotherly feelings, and Bai Shan never shows mercy when killing those trash.
Shen Jiao nodded: "If you put it this way, if the young lady goes back like this, there will be no one left to use."
"What do you mean by this?" Bai Shan frowned.
Shen Jiao saw that she was asking questions even though she knew the answer.
What could Shen Jiao mean? He was probably afraid that this troublemaker would be tricked into the city and killed. It wouldn't matter if she died, but he must not implicate Shen Jiao, the military advisor.
But she didn't say this herself, and Shen Jiao didn't want to mention it, so as not to make her angry.
"It's nothing special. I don't know much about marching and fighting. I just heard that changing generals before the battle is a taboo. Similarly, it's also a taboo for a general to have no soldiers and not be familiar with his subordinates.
If what she gets are all rotten things, then she won't be able to achieve anything great, and it would be good enough if she doesn't hold me back. Besides, I'm already familiar with these "tools", and someone else might not be able to use them well. It would be better for her to ask the master and Mother Xue for permission, and just stay for some more time, and wait until the day of the uprising, and then go out with these tools. Wouldn't that be better?
Anyway, these things are made to be used, so who doesn't use them?"
Shen Jiao's words really touched people's hearts.
Bai Shan just wanted to leave here and didn't want to continue guarding this nest, but she was reluctant to give away the artifacts she had carefully crafted in the nest.
I was a little confused for a while:
"Will Mother Xue and the Master agree? Please don't think I'm being too arrogant."
Bai Shan knew his position, so he didn't dare to make such a request.
Shen Jiao encouraged her, "How can you know if you don't try? Miss, you've been here for so many years, and you don't even have the right to ask? It's not like you're going to do anything bad. You just want to better serve your master's cause. Why can't you ask?"
"That makes sense. Go ahead and write a letter for me to copy."
Bai Shan gave the orders very smoothly.
Qingbian felt something was wrong: "Sister Baishan, should we first ask the messenger sent by the master about this matter?"
