Farm Girl Turns Everything Around: Sly Husband, Let's Farm

Chapter 1185: Chapter 1184: Making Friends (Sixth Update)_1 Chapter 1185: Chapter 1184: Making Friends (Sixth Update)_1 Tong Sanlang complied.

“You go about your business, I’ll keep an eye on her today,” Tong Tiehu added.

Tong Sanlang complied, gave a glance at Qiao Xiaomai, and hurried off.

Qiao Xiaomai rolled her eyes and stood aside with her arms crossed, saying nothing.

Tong Tiehu ordered, “Go get a clay pot, leave a pot of clean water, then go back to the palace.”

Having Zhang Family drink more water would speed her recovery, so he could send her off sooner.

Qiao Xiaomai complied, bought a clean clay pot from someone at the Medical Clinic, filled it with clear water, and then returned to the palace.

She had to sprinkle Spiritual Spring water on the corn and chili peppers every day; she was actually quite busy.

By the time she got back to the palace, it was almost noon, and she entered the small kitchen to make lunch.

Once lunch was ready, and the food for Emperor Yongan and the others had been sent off, she carried her lunchbox towards the Main Hall.

A guest had arrived at Da’an Palace today, Princess Ailiusha.

Princess Ailiusha felt anxious staying at the ‘palace’ and wanted to find Emperor Yongan before her wounds healed, hoping to seek justice from Emperor Yongan for the Divine Tree Tribe.

Emperor Yongan had learned the truth about the annihilation of the Divine Tree Tribe. Yuchi Country was the instigator; the stolen God Catfish was just their excuse for sending troops, and the Divine Tree Tribe had been wronged.

No matter whether the Divine Tree Tribe was wronged or not, Daqi would not allow Yuchi Country to seize the territory.

Therefore, Daqi was bound to send troops to seek justice for the Divine Tree Tribe.

However, with the imperial examinations coming up soon and Yang Wenxiao’s ninetieth birthday this month, the military campaign had to be postponed.

Moreover, to avoid suspicions from Qingye and Qinglian, he couldn’t reveal this plan to Ailiusha.

All he could do was to placate Ailiusha.

Ailiusha, feeling brushed off and unable to obtain justice from Emperor Yongan, began to approach Yang Wenxiao.

She spoke the Daqi language and admired Daqi’s culture, with a smattering of poetry and literature, so she could converse normally with Yang Wenxiao, who could follow up on any topic she raised.

Yang Wenxiao knew her intentions, but since he couldn’t reveal the plan, he could only change the subject. When the conversation ran dry, he resorted to playing Landlord and Mahjong with Ailiusha.

The morning passed with both seemingly in good spirits on the surface.

At noon, Yang Wenxiao invited Ailiusha to have lunch together, and Qiao Xiaomai was also present, which naturally made Ailiusha curious about her identity.

Yang Wenxiao introduced her, and upon listening, Ailiusha realized, “You are Warrior Tong’s wife!”

Tong Sanlang had saved her life, and she was very grateful to him. Now that she met Qiao Xiaomai, she treated her with great warmth.

Since Tong Tiehu had dealt with the matter of Zhang Family, Qiao Xiaomai was in a good mood; she chatted with Ailiusha with a smile, discussing transplanting some iron ball trees. Ailiusha praised her skill, and by the end of the meal, the two had become good friends.

That afternoon, Emperor Yongan came to discuss state affairs with Yang Wenxiao, so Qiao Xiaomai took Ailiusha back to the rear hall.

Qiao Xiaomai sympathized with Ailiusha’s plight, but she had no other solutions. The two of them avoided the topic, talking about other things instead, and spent a cheerful afternoon together.

The next day, Qiao Xiaomai left the palace after breakfast.

Having left enough Spiritual Spring water for Zhang Family, she rode a carriage to the ‘palace’ to find Ailiusha.

Truth be told, adding up her two lives, she never had a friend. Now that she had met someone she could get along with, she felt rather eager.

But just as she arrived at the entrance of the ‘palace’ and the carriage had not yet come to a stop, a loud “bang” sounded and a person fell in front of the carriage. She focused her eyes and saw that the person was Ailiusha.

Then Qinglian came out, brandishing a curved knife in her hand and standing at the palace entrance with a somewhat triumphant look at Ailiusha lying on the ground, taunting, “I let you live a few more days, daring to steal my God Catfish, I’ll take your little life sooner or later!”

[Goodnight]
