Chapter 87: Who Does She Know There?

She was delighted by the thought of Qian Yiyun’s disappearance.

No one would stop her from getting close to Brother Yun anymore. She could peacefully think of a good way to make him her man.

“Get some rest.” Qian Jiyun did not wish to waste his time and gestured for her to leave.

After watching Xue Ling leave, Yan Nuo walked over and looked at Qian Jiyun. “General.”

“Send someone to follow her,” Qian Jiyun instructed.

“I’ve already sent someone to do that. We will receive news soon,” Yan Nuo replied.

Why would they believe Xue Ling so easily? They had to send someone to follow her.

In fact, she did not seem worried about Qian Yiyun at all. She immediately left when she heard that she could rest. In his opinion, Xue Ling was probably hoping that Qian Yiyun would never appear again.

“General, as for Miss…”

Qian Jiyun thought for a moment, then said, “Yan Yan is more capable than Xue Ling. Since she didn’t catch up with us, she must have been sabotaged and didn’t have any money left.”

That town was the only place that was not affected by the disaster. Yan Yan knew how to ride a horse. She would have bought a horse and hurried back if she had the money. She would not be slower than Xue Ling, who returned in a carriage.

“Then what should we do? It’s been four days,” Yan Nuo asked anxiously.

Qian Jiyun replied calmly, “Let her be.”

“Huh?” Yan Nuo listened, mouth agape and at a loss for words.

The General said that knowing she is penniless now? Is he trying to make her a beggar?

Qian Jiyun noted his surprise and reminded, “Who does she know there?”

There was a look of realization on Yan Nuo’s face.

The only person Miss knows there is Miss An, who saved us! The town is not far from Miss An’s house. Since Miss does not have any money now, she would probably look for her to protect herself.

So, Xue Ling’s attempt to kill Miss is a wrong move, isn’t it?

“Then, General, what about Xue Ling?” he asked.

They had tolerated her to see what other tricks she had up her sleeves. But how could they spare her now that she had sabotaged Qian Yiyun?

“Let her gloat for a few more days,” Qian Jiyun instructed.

He thought for a moment, then added, “Yan Yan’s belongings are with her. Go and get them back.”

“Yes, I understand,” Yan Nuo replied and left the tent.

…

Another nine days passed.

The roads in the village were cleared and the fields were reclaimed under the supervision and urging of the Chief and the Junior Officer.

Some families distributed the grain that was soaked in the floodwaters. They planted the grain quickly and saved everyone the cost of buying seeds.

Although all their poultry were gone, their money remained because they were hidden well.

They were muddied now, but they could still be found. The villagers could buy some food and wild vegetables to get by.

The village was renewed. Everyone listened to An Jiuyue’s suggestion and went to the spring on the mountain to fetch water. They had temporarily abandoned the well.

Although the villagers were tired, they still cleaned their houses thoroughly. They built new straw roofs and also washed and dried the clothes that had been soaked in water. The clothes were now warm to wear.
