Chapter 163 Miss Chen, long time no see!
Night falls.
When the Blazing Star Tribe first arrived, they saw three men who were beaten half to death being carried and thrown out.
There was also an elderly woman.
As luck would have it, the elderly woman seemed to know the chief of the Blazing Star Tribe.
She looked at her pleadingly and stretched out her hands...
Si Yu was standing not far away, and next to her stood the warlike Si Xue and the tall and strong Ji Shuo, who were just looking coldly at the chief of the Chixing tribe.
Chief Blazing Star's eyes flashed with panic, and he kicked the woman away.
The woman hit her head on a rock and soon died.
"It seems that I came at the wrong time. Is Chief Si Yu dealing with the criminals of the tribe?" Chief Chixing asked with a frown.
"Yeah, a bunch of traitors." Si Yu answered casually.
Chief Blazing Star fell silent upon hearing this.
Si Xue continued, "These people were on duty last night. They maliciously extinguished the tribe's fire and spread words that went against the gods, and they were sentenced to death!"
She raised her voice very high, as if she was explaining to Chief Blazing Star, but more like she was trying to intimidate others.
"They've all forgotten that they were abandoned by their own tribe long ago! And we were the ones who accepted them despite past grudges! They've ended up like this now. It's foolish, despicable, and they deserve it!"
“…”
The scene fell into deathly silence.
After several moments, Chief Blazing Star spoke first, "I heard some rumors today too. Turns out they were spread by these ungrateful wretches. I told you not to collect some trash, but you just wouldn't listen."
Si Yu rarely agreed, "Chief Chixing is still experienced. I will learn from you in the future and never do such a stupid thing again!"
Seeing her good attitude, Chief Blazing Star taught her some more things.
For example, in a clan tribe, not only men, but also women with other surnames are not worthy of status.
They should all become the lowest slaves of the tribe.
You have to do the most and the heaviest work.
You can beat and scold them as you like.
If there is a shortage of food, these people should be expelled immediately...
The Qiuyu tribe was originally trying a suspicious person, and they all stood there, watching the person who was confirmed guilty being executed.
The shock hasn't passed yet, and I hear these remarks again.
With every word the Chief of the Blazing Star Tribe spoke, their faces grew uglier, and their eyes were full of pleading as they looked at Si Yu.
It was only at this time that they realized that they were treated better in the Qiuyu tribe than in their mother tribe.
They were crazy to have even entertained such an idea before!
Of course, there are some who have never thought of this before, and they trembled when they heard this, and became more determined to be loyal to the Qiuyu tribe!
Si Yu listened to what she had said for the most part before replying, "Thank you very much. I will consider all of this."
The people from the Blazing Star Tribe had already come here, and they would be unwilling to leave with nothing.
"Since the gods are still watching over you, they must have bestowed other things upon you, right? Are there any blessings for us to share?" I heard that they were celebrating last night and had a lot of good things.
Si Yu smiled inexplicably, "Of course! I would have sent it to you even if you hadn't told me. I'm too busy today, so let's do it tomorrow."
Chief Blazing Star was not very satisfied, but he endured it for the time being, "Okay! I'll see you tomorrow!"
After the people from the Chixing tribe walked away, Si Xue couldn't bear it anymore.
She pulled Si Yu aside and asked in a low voice.
"Chief, how many times has she done this? She always asks us for things!" Last time, they gave them one set of clothes given by the goddess, but later they came to ask for other things.
It seems to be a friendly talk, but it actually contains threats.
Asked them to give out some ginger, garlic and seeds.
These cookware are so good now, they don’t even have enough for themselves, how can we give them some?!
Si Yu was calm and said, "Don't worry, you can give her the things tomorrow."
She would give them a kitchen knife and tell them that every member of their tribe had one.
…
After Chen Jinyue sent Si Yu away, he squatted beside the rows of baskets in the yard, staring at the things in his mind.
Tiger skin...
This must not be taken out!
It can only be kept in the yard, after all, it is a token of the other party's good intentions.
Other medicinal materials are also easy to preserve, so just put them here first.
But that basket of live fish is difficult to deal with.
Si Yu's tribe must have mastered many fishing techniques, and most of these fish are whole and fresh.
She thought for a moment, then went into the house and fetched a few large basins of water. She picked out the fresh fish and placed them in the basins. She planned to build a small fish pond in the yard someday when she had time and try raising fish.
The rest were taken out of the space and made into dried salted fish by Aunt Tang.
Chen Jinyue usually has nothing to do at night. Aunt Tang went back to her room early. She was a little confused when she was called up just after lying down.
Until he saw Chen Jinyue's basket of fish, "So many fish? Where did you get them?"
Chen Jinyue said casually, "A friend gave it to me. He said he caught it in the countryside."
Aunt Tang had no doubts, "I'll kill it and pickle it right away. It would be a shame if it went bad!"
Chen Jinyue nodded, "Yeah, thank you for your hard work."
"What's so hard about it? There's less work to do here and it's quiet. You often bring me gifts. It's the blessing I've accumulated in the first half of my life." Aunt Tang said with a smile.
Chen Jinyue also smiled, chatted with her for a few words, and then was urged to go upstairs to rest.
As soon as she left, Jiang Zixing heard the noise and came out to check.
He was stunned for a moment when he saw the half basket of fish, and then walked away quietly.
Since moving into this villa, he has noticed many unusual things.
But his principle is: as long as it does not affect the employer's safety, there is no need to worry about other things that should not be asked.
…
Chen Jinyue had just lit a fire in the courtyard and was smelling of cooking smoke, so she went upstairs and took a quick shower.
I had just changed my clothes and blow-dried my hair when I felt someone coming into the yard again.
She felt it with some surprise.
It’s Jiang Qian’an!
A client that she misses very much!
I almost thought they were wiped out!
Jiang Qian'an was wearing a moon-white robe today, with a gold-embroidered collar. His hair was still tied up with a white jade crown, and he wore a top-quality mutton-fat jade pendant around his waist.
The heavy fox fur cloak, which was very characteristic of the border area, was finally taken off.
He was relaxed and graceful, exuding a dignity and nobility that was rarely seen before.
This period of time is enough to show that he has changed a lot.
He came in and stopped in the yard to look around for a moment, as if he didn't expect the yard to have changed.
A large vegetable patch had been cleared, and the rest was covered in neatly-grown green grass. A winding stone path led to the interior, and a wooden corridor at the entrance led to a small pavilion, surrounded by a variety of flowers he couldn't name...
Seeing this strange yet familiar place, the corners of his lips curled up slightly, and he walked towards the living room with natural steps.
Chen Jinyue quickly put on a coat, slipped straight into the living room, opened the door and came out, just in time to meet him face to face.
Jiang Qi'an was stunned for a few seconds, then smiled and said, "Miss Chen, long time no see!"
