She told Qin Mo that the two of them had secretly gone to Liu Dou's vicinity again last night, and they overheard him muttering, "I've finally waited for her... Zhizi... so beautiful... sigh..." How touching it is to see an old man's yearning!
Qin Mo originally intended to teach Liu Renguang a lesson in secret, as a way of giving the Japanese female soldiers an explanation. However, Kaihime disagreed. She went to the wounded soldiers' camp that night and found Tomoko. After a conversation, she gave Qin Mo a win-win answer—Tomoko was willing to be her concubine.
Qin Mo watched Liu Renguang scramble away in exaggerated fashion, cursing inwardly, "Damn it! Did I invent telescopes so you could look at pretty girls? Or so you could watch people bathing? ...That was clearly a perk for me...I was clearly planning to watch myself..."
Qin Mo watched as Kaihime packed the binoculars into a box and slung it over her back. She figured it wouldn't be easy to find a reason to take the binoculars from him that night. Did the commander-in-chief really need to be on guard? Even if he did... he'd definitely need maids to serve him... Sigh! Qin Mo let out a long, regretful sigh.
"Tomoko, Liu Junliao, if you find it troublesome to carry these things on the march, he can write you a letter and have the Daxia merchants in Edo send the betrothal gifts to your family. You have a younger brother, right?"
Kaihime stood before Murakami Tomoko, who was kneeling on the ground. Between them was a pile of things, and behind Tomoko stood a group of girls. Everyone's attention was drawn to the pile of things. Even Murakami Tomoko didn't hear Kaihime's question, staring blankly at the "bride price" before her.
"Sigh... Tomoko... Think it over before you tell me your decision," Kaihime said helplessly as she turned and left. Before coming to Daxia, they thought ten bolts of Matsue cloth would be a great fortune, enough for a woman to live a happy life. But now, what lay before them were two bolts... of silk. In addition, there was a set of lightweight full-body iron armor.
Throughout the night, one of the tents in the wounded soldiers' camp was filled with shouts and gibberish. Although no one else could understand a word, the joy and excitement contained within were clear to everyone.
"The girl is nice, she's fertile," Xu Liyan said to Old Li across the table, taking a sip of his drink.
"That's because... these girls are all in good health, perfect for marrying and carrying on the family line. I need to arrange one for my third son in advance. Just you wait, it won't be long before all these girls are taken!" Old Li used to look down on the Japanese, but now he finds these Japanese female warriors much more agreeable. Soon they will be wives of the Grand Army, they will be one of his own. How can they be the same?
Qing Ning stroked the large bow in her hand, waiting for that lewd fellow to climb onto the hanging basket. She had already decided that if she was spied on again tonight, she would risk being punished by her master to shoot an arrow—not to kill him, but to cripple him. Just thinking about that guy's lewd chuckles made Qing Ning feel as if ants were crawling all over her body, an unbearable itch.
Arrived, a lithe, dark figure climbed onto Liu Dou and deftly lit the stove. The dappled firelight illuminated his face.
"Why not him?" Qing Ning angrily threw down her bow and arrow. She had waited for so long, but this was the result, which made her restless and unable to sleep well that night.
