Peaceful Farm Life

Chapter 1193: Chapter 1194: She Must Get It Back Double!

What would happen if his wife got assassinated again?

So, it is still best for him to stay by his wife’s side to prevent any mishap.

This was Xiao Changyi’s most genuine thought.

An Jing knew what Xiao Changyi was worried about, so she didn’t ask him not to go with her to recruit soldiers. Instead, she just asked, ”Those assassins... Is there still no clue about them?”

Xiao Changyi said, ”They are all dead, and there’s no clue on them. Other than the possibility of being related to Chilin Kingdom, there’s nothing else we can find.”

An Jing didn’t ask any further. But, she deeply remembered this matter in her heart.

Initially, her four children were almost scared to death by those assassins—it separated them like heaven and earth. If she could, she would definitely seek revenge twice as much.

...

The next day, An Jing, Ye Zhi, and Xiao Changyi came to the gate of the Imperial Capital again to recruit female soldiers.

There were spectators yesterday, but today none. At most, people glanced at their recruitment spot as they passed by.

No one came to sign up, so An Jing chatted with Ye Zhi to pass the time.

Talking about last night’s events.

She asked Ye Zhi how she ended up dealing with Gong Juechen. Ye Zhi hadn’t come to the main courtyard for dinner until the very end.

It was only this morning that she saw Ye Zhi.

Ye Zhi said, ”What else could be done? I just beat him up again. He truly isn’t afraid of getting beaten, it’s useless no matter how many times I do it and it’s just a waste of my energy.”

”You still beat him?” An Jing found it funny.

”Otherwise, I’d feel uncomfortable.”

”You feel better after you beat him?”

”Still uncomfortable. That guy always talks back when I hit him and says things that make me even more upset. Every time I finish beating him, I feel even angrier than before the beating.”

”Hahaha—” An Jing was instantly amused. ”He really has a knack for that.”

Ye Zhi gnashed her teeth, ”Boss, should I tear his mouth apart?”

”Wouldn’t that be too bloody?”

”If I don’t tear his mouth apart, he’ll always be like this. Sometimes I really feel like killing him; a man, how can his mouth be so insolent? He’s definitely asking for a beating! But he doesn’t fear death, no matter how I beat him.” She paused, ”Or should I just throw him into a cesspit? He seems really afraid of that.”

”He has a phobia, of course, he’s scared. But it’s not nice to do that, is it?” Throwing someone into a cesspit, to be honest, she really felt disgusted and nauseous.

Ye Zhi also felt disgusted and her face grimaced, ”Then what should we do?”

An Jing stayed silent for a moment, then said, ”Just handle it the way you see fit. I don’t know what’s best.”

”Right,” An Jing suddenly remembered something, ”Take this silver note and give it to him. The kids were being rowdy yesterday, it was too late so I didn’t go to him. You always run into him more, so you give it to him.”

Ye Zhi looked at the 13,000 taels silver note stuffed into her hand, ”He already gave everything to Star. Just give it to Star, why return it to him? He isn’t short on money, there’s a lot of it.”

”Why didn’t you take his money? Not even a copper coin?” If it were a little, that would be fine, but not this much; An Jing wouldn’t take it.

”I got it!” Ye Zhi immediately tucked the silver note into her bosom. Then, Ye Zhi sighed again, ”Looks like we’re not likely to recruit anyone today either.”
