Xiaohua said it lightly, but Jiang Xue frowned tightly when she heard it.
This plain is really a piece of shit, isn't it?
What is this?
We were all from the same tribe, how could he do such a thing!
It's so infuriating!
"We were meeting this morning, and I don't know why you were out. Actually, even though you've only been here a few days, everyone's quite impressed by you," Xiaohua said in a pleasant voice. "Everyone says the baskets you make are incredibly useful, and we're even talking about mass-producing them. Besides, the flea market is opening soon, and we'd like to use your creations to exchange for more salt."
Jiang Xue said without any expression when she heard this, "This is a good thing, but what do people say?"
"What else can I say? Grandpa said you're not part of the clan, so the matter is dropped. I really don't understand why Grandpa doesn't agree."
Jiang Xue suddenly remembered that Ashan followed her after she went out in the morning. She was not worried about anything else. What she was most worried about was that Ashan had not come back yet. So, would he collude with Pingyuan and turn around to deal with the Snake Tribe?
More importantly, as Xiaohua said, due to the lack of manpower, even if he took some time out every night to use low-level rejuvenation techniques to heal a few wounded soldiers, it would take at least another seven or eight days for the Snake Tribe to be truly revived.
Seven or eight days, this time is really too long!
No one knows whether Ashan will suddenly lead Pingyuan to attack the tribe!
She thought for a while, then Xiaohua looked around and said to Jiang Xue, "Sister Xue, it's getting dark now. Go in the water quickly. I'll help you watch."
Jiang Xue nodded, stood up, took off her clothes and put them on the rocks, then dived into the river.
Thanks to Xiaohua for keeping watch these days, otherwise, she really wouldn't dare to jump into the river and take a bath so blatantly.
The river water is very clear. The Snake Tribe’s living water and daily drinking water all come from this river. The river water does not taste muddy, but rather has a refreshing sweetness.
But she didn't have any toiletries at the moment, so she could only rub the mud off her body with her hands and wash herself.
Jiang Xue made up her mind that if conditions allowed in the future, she would definitely make some toiletries.
After taking a bath and getting dressed, she urged Xiaohua to go down to the river to take a bath.
Xiaohua took off her clothes without hesitation and went into the river. However, she was not a good swimmer and only dared to wash herself in the shallows.
Halfway through the wash, Xiaohua suddenly screamed in panic and then rushed to the shore.
Jiang Xue was startled by her actions and asked, "Xiaohua, what's wrong?"
Xiaohua said in shock, "There seems to be a snake in the river! It just swam past my feet."
Is there a snake in the river?
Jiang Xue didn't think much about it. After all, this wasn't the end of the world. In the end of the world, not only would there be no fish in the river, not even a single water plant could survive. It was normal for there to be water snakes in the river.
She comforted her, "Okay, Xiaohua, it's okay. The snakes have run away. Do you still want to wash? If not, let's go back."
Xiaohua didn't dare to go down to the river to take a bath again. She quickly put on her clothes and went back to the tribe with her.
Everyone in the tribe gathered around the campfire. The atmosphere seemed very good. I don’t know what they were discussing.
Seeing her return, the old patriarch's face darkened. He spoke a few words to the people next to him, and then asked her directly: "Jiang Xue, let me ask you, did you see Ashan when you went out today?"
Jiang Xue looked at him with a teasing expression. It seemed that she couldn't sit still anymore and wanted to cause trouble for herself.
She nodded and said, "I saw it. When I went to the mountains to cut vines, he tried to force himself on me, but I chased him away. Why hasn't he come back yet?"
This old thing is really interesting.
How could he not know what his son had done?
The old patriarch stood up immediately, pointed at her excitedly and said, "Tell me, where did you take Ashan?"
"Where can I take him? Former Chief, don't forget, he's a grown man, a living being with arms and legs. I, a woman, can come back safe and sound, so why can't he?" After a pause, she continued, "By the way, I heard Pingyuan is lying in ambush nearby. I think it would be better if you went to Pingyuan to ask for him!"
After saying that, Jiang Xue glanced at him contemptuously.
Your son is missing, and you come to me for help?
Why don’t you think about what your son does every day!
I have never seen a young master like him. The injured people in the tribe can force themselves to help the tribe to the best of their ability, but he is the other way around. He either eats or sleeps in the tribe all day long, or constantly harasses and forces women.
If I were the patriarch, I would have kicked such a person out long ago.
One bad apple spoils the whole barrel.
You still dare to ask me for people?
Virtue!
The old patriarch had never been so humiliated before. He shouted, "What kind of attitude is this? Believe it or not, I will make you pay for it now!"
Jiang Xue snorted coldly and responded sarcastically, "That's just my attitude. If you don't like it, then I can't help it. I also advise you that when you get older, you should know your place. Don't always put on a smug face to intimidate people. I'm not afraid of being scared. At worst, we can just go our separate ways!"
It is not unfair to use words like disrespectful to the elderly to describe this person.
"you--"
"Jiang Xue, apologize to my father quickly!"
Before the old patriarch finished speaking, Ashan's voice suddenly rang out.
Jiang Xue stared at him coldly. The guy's face was shiny in the firelight. It seemed that he had just come back from eating alone outside.
"Why should I apologize to him? He wants to slander me with nothing to prove, how shameless of me?" Jiang Xue snorted coldly, and said unhappily: "Besides, I didn't tell a single lie. You really wanted to force yourself on me today. If you could beat me, I'd probably be the one crying right now!"
Ashan's face turned blue and red. He thought about how he had hugged her this morning, but he didn't expect that her petite body contained huge energy. Before he could react, she threw him out!
Not to mention myself, if this happened to anyone else, they would be embarrassed.
"I don't know what you are talking about!" Ashan stiffened his neck and turned his head away without looking at her.
"It's not up to me to decide whether you know it or not. You know it in your heart." Jiang Xue sat down by the campfire.
Ashan took a deep breath, rushed to her side in two steps, raised his hand and was about to hit her in the face.
Jiang Xue moved.
Mu Feng also moved.
The two men attacked almost at the same time. Mu Feng grabbed Ashan's raised hand, while Jiang Xue picked up a stone from the ground and threw it at his face.
The stone hit Ashan's cheek straight on, and he covered his face in pain.
