She Rebuilt Her Fallen Country With Storage Space Chapter 70 - 70 70 They Are All Sick

Chapter 70: Chapter 70 They Are All Sick Chapter 70: Chapter 70 They Are All Sick Liu Taipin dawdled foolishly at the door.

It seed as if there was a barrier at the entrance; she dared not to step out and could only peek from within.

When she saw scar face appear, her aged face brimd with joy.

“Doudou!”

“Everyone’s gone out to get their porridge; why are you still foolishly waiting here?”

Liu Taipin stamred, “You, you told to wait here…”

She was extra cautious, thinking she had done sothing wrong again.

Her withered hands held on tightly to scar face’s sleeve, fearing that he would vanish for several days like he did before.

Scar face looked at her with mixed feelings.

Liu Taipin’s silver hair was disheveled, and dark circles under her eyes seed as if she hadn’t dared to close them, vigilantly waiting for him at the door.

In these days, he had been so preoccupied with his own affairs that he forgot about Liu Taipin being confined here.

Unexpectedly, she really didn’t step out and waited obediently.

“You’re truly foolish; if I do not co, you must still know to co out by yourself next ti!” scar face’s tone sounded tough, but was actually softened.

He took Liu Taipin’s hand and led her out to get at porridge.

While passing by, two male prisoners walked past them, making Liu Taipin as frightened as if she had seen ghosts, shielding herself behind scar face.

“Get lost, get away!” she feigned fierceness to shoo them away, but her face conveyed sheer panic.

The two innocents who were scolded naturally felt displeased and fiercely reprimanded, “Old hag, what are you yelling for?”

Scar face glared furiously, causing them to sense fear and promptly not daring to say another word, hurriedly leaving.

Only after they left did Liu Taipin breathe a sigh of relief.

“Doudou, those two are sick, don’t you go near them.”

Scar face chuckled with amusent.

This old lady says others are sick, does she not realize she is more muddled?

Xiang Ying hardly rested for a day before she ran back to the bow to cast her nets.

She was preparing to make herself a fish soup to replenish her strength.

Footsteps followed intermittently from behind, with the other party seeming hesitant, moving forward at tis and then retreating with indecision.

Xiang Ying turned her head and saw it was Supervisor Ke.

He hesitated and seed to have co for her.

Xiang Ying coldly withdrew her gaze, not even bothering with a greeting.

Supervisor Ke, not expecting her to show such a cold shoulder and realizing being caught in her sights, approached and spoke:

“Xiang Ying, I have heard from the soldiers below, you are adept at fishing and often haul in nets full of river delicacies. You must have a trick or two; why not teach these skills to the brothers on the boat?”

“I won’t teach,” Xiang Ying flatly refused.

Supervisor Ke frowned, “Don’t be hasty with rejection; I haven’t discussed the benefits. If you teach them, every exiled criminal on the boat will get an extra at al every day.”

Xiang Ying glanced at him, “I said I won’t teach, and whether the other criminals eat at or not, what does that have to do with ?”

“How can you speak like that?” Supervisor Ke was taken aback, “The other day you were saying whether it’s Xizhou or Nanyue, we are all our own people, and now you don’t care about them?”

Xiang Ying smiled, her expression seeming to find Supervisor Ke’s words naive.

“Fishing is mostly luck; what’s there to teach or not to teach? If they can’t catch fish later, you would certainly bla for not teaching well.”

“Moreover, I risked fixing the boat, indeed for the innocent people, but that’s because I was confident in my abilities. If sothing happens, it’s my own life that I’m gambling with, and no one will bla for anything.”

“But if it’s your people I let go, and if there is the slightest harm, you would certainly bla . There are too many thankless tasks in this world!”

Her Phoenix Eyes narrowed with laughter, gleaming like ripples on the water, yet the words she spoke were so resolute.

“Don’t ask again, Supervisor Ke; I might share with you an extra fish, but forget about anything else.”

Supervisor Ke was utterly worn down by her attitude.

Pointing at her, he wanted to retort, but in the end, he could only laugh helplessly with frustration.

Supervisor Ke shook his head as he spoke, “Anything that could potentially lose your own interests, you simply won’t do. I can’t tell if you’re being righteous or selfish.”

“No wonder they sent Jie Chen to discuss this matter with you. He refused even faster. It looks like he’s already understood your temperant.”

Just then,

Xiang Qianqian’s voice ca through, “Supervisor Ke, if elder sister won’t teach, I can. I know how to do this.”

Supervisor Ke turned around, his previously smiling face becoming stern.

“You?” He scanned her from head to toe.

Xiang Qianqian had delicate features, and her watery eyes made her look like a fragile princess.

Could she understand the intricacies of fishing?

She explained, “Actually, every ti elder sister goes fishing, I watch from the side and have picked up a few tricks.”

“In any case, it’s no loss for the Military Supervisor to let try, right?”

Supervisor Ke glanced at Xiang Ying’s expression.

But he saw Xiang Ying with an air of indifference toward them, focusing only on what was ahead.

“Fine, let’s have you give it a try. If you can also catch a good number of fish and shrimp, I could even provide you with at porridge every day.”

Xiang Qianqian’s face lit up with joy, “Whether others get to eat or not, I’m not concerned about that. As long as the Military Supervisor can satisfy and the Imperial Grandmother with full als daily, that will be enough.”

Supervisor Ke’s eyes paused for a mont.

These two sisters spoke alike, yet they gave off different impressions.

He didn’t say anything, only handing a fishing net to Skinny Monkey for Xiang Qianqian.

Xiang Qianqian took the net and stood in front of Xiang Ying.

In her eyes, the spot where Xiang Ying stood each ti seed to matter greatly.

The reason Xiang Ying caught so many fish must be because she knew where the fish gathered.

The boat was moving continuously, so Xiang Qianqian believed that standing in front of Xiang Ying would suffice.

At that mont, Tao Xue ca over with a bucket to help Xiang Ying collect the fish.

Seeing Xiang Qianqian casting her net in front of Xiang Ying, Tao Xue frowned, “Can’t the Fifth Princess fish sowhere else? Why crowd around the elder princess?”

Xiang Qianqian turned around with an innocent tone, “This isn’t elder sister’s private territory. I’m fishing here, and the Military Supervisor has said nothing.”

Tao Xue was sowhat annoyed, “You—!”

Suddenly, Xiang Ying interrupted her, “Tao Xue, help pull. I can’t lift it.”

As she spoke, Xiang Ying hauled up the heavy fishing net from the water.

Within the net, seven or eight plump fish were flapping, revealing their white bellies and splashing water everywhere.

Any single one of them was as long as half an arm.

Tao Xue deliberately raised her voice toward Xiang Qianqian, “The elder princess is truly formidable, always able to catch so much river delicacy. It’s clear it’s not about the location, but about the person. So people simply can’t emulate her, no matter how they try.”

These words turned Xiang Qianqian’s face sour.

Tao Xue took the initiative to lift the fishing net while Xiang Ying had just lifted the bucket, only to see Jie Chen approach with long strides.

“Give it to .” He naturally took the heavy bucket from her hands.

Jie Chen glanced at her and lowered his voice, “Is your back fully healed? Lifting sothing so heavy.”

Xiang Ying was puzzled, “How co you’re here?”

Jie Chen’s eyes darkened.

Couldn’t he co to see her without a reason?

Just as he was about to speak, Jie Chen instead said, “Old Ke and Old Wei wanted to bring you so dicine.”

“Oh, thank you for that.”

But hadn’t Supervisor Ke just left?

They walked away side by side, with Tao Xue intentionally falling a step behind to give them space to be together.

Xiang Qianqian watched their retreating figures, sneering silently, “What a sly temptress with her tricks, always ensnaring n.”

Luckily, she was different; she did not rely on n.
