Chapter 161: It Would Be A Waste If I Didn’t Accept Them

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

When she saved Meng Jiang, Meng Zi treated it as a personal favor, and the debt did not extend to the whole North District.

Su Ying couldn’t help admiring this man for being so clear-headed under such pressing conditions.

“What do I want your life for? I did it because I happened to be here.”

When Su Ying walked out of the house, everyone in the courtyard looked at her in shock. They found it hard to imagine how a person who was effectively destined for death could come back to life in her hands.

“I’ll send the two of you off.” Zhou Xing followed her out.

“I’ll have to trouble you then.”

Su Ying walked through the North District as the sunset cast its orange rays over it. It was harvest time, and as she passed by the fields, she could see many people working hard in the fields. Although it was hard work, the people’s faces were filled with the joy of reaping a bumper harvest.

This feeling was calm and filled with unadorned simplicity, but it made her feel extremely peaceful.

When Su Ying first came here, she felt that she had walked for a long time, but when she came out, she realized that she didn’t walk too far.

“Thank you for saving Meng Jiang, Madam Su. The North District welcomes you anytime.” Zhou Xing and Meng Jiang had a deep friendship. When he saw that his good friend had been brought back from the brink of death, he felt very emotional.

“You’re welcome.”

Su Ying and Qiao Yang boarded the horse carriage.

“Zhou Xing, I’ll treat you to a drink next time.”

Zhou Xing looked at Qiao Yang and nodded. “Okay.”

“We’ll be going now.”

The horse carriage slowly left the North District.

“Madam Su, you’re really amazing. You’re really my goddess. You were able to save Meng Jiang even when he was so badly injured.” Qiao Yang’s admiration for Su Ying rose to another level.

“His condition was indeed very precarious. I wasn’t completely confident at that time.” However, she still took action. Naturally, she didn’t do it purely because she wanted to save him. Although Meng Zi had made it clear that this was a favor to the Meng family and had nothing to do with the North District, she didn’t believe that this would have no positive impact on their integration with the North District.

After Su Ying left, the people in the Meng family’s house began to discuss what had just happened.

“What’s the background of that young lady? Her medical skills are actually so amazing?”

“Not only are her medical skills amazing, but her martial arts are also unfathomable. With just a few slaps, she beat those scumbags in the West District into submission.”

“That’s her…”

Although the people of the North District lived peacefully in their own area, it did not mean that they did not know anything.

The news of a powerful young lady coming to the Tiger Base and overturning the Venom Cult and the Azure Dragon Base had long spread in the North District.

Everyone was very curious about who this young lady was. They didn’t expect her to come to the North District today.

However, Su Ying’s appearance was completely different from what they had imagined. They had previously thought that she was a muscular, towering fierce character.

They didn’t expect her to be such a petite, delicate-looking tender young lady.

“Gentlemen, thank you for sending Jiang’er back today. When Jiang’er wakes up, I will personally pay all of you a visit to thank you.” Meng Zi walked out of the house and thanked the people in the courtyard with cupped fists.

“Don’t stand on ceremony, Area Chief. All of us grew up with Meng Jiang. We can’t just watch him get into trouble without lifting a finger.”

“That’s right, Area Chief. Take good care of Meng Jiang. If you need any help, just let us know.”

“Then I’ll have to trouble everyone. It’s getting late, so I won’t delay you anymore.”

It was indeed getting late. Everyone went home after bidding farewell to Meng Zi, but two middle-aged men in the crowd who were about the same age as Meng Zi were in no hurry to leave.

“Is there a reason why the young lady and the people from the Tiger Base are here?”

Meng Zi gestured for the two of them to enter the house to chat.

After entering the house, Meng Zi told the two of them the purpose of Su Ying’s trip.

“Although she saved Jiang’er, this matter cannot be lumped together with that issue. Therefore, when you consider this matter, you have to put the interests of the entire district first.”

The two of them nodded. “We know. I even sent someone to ask around about this young lady. Do you know the hill behind the East District? When the great fire broke out, we thought that it was a wildfire caused by the hot weather and dry vegetation. In the end, it was the Azure Dragon Base who used all sorts of tricks to take her life.”

“A woman, and a young woman at that, can make those deserters hate and fear her so much. She must be a ruthless character.” There was an underlying sense of taboo in those words.

However, Meng Zi said, “How many people can stand firm in this godforsaken place if they aren’t ruthless characters? Actually, what she said isn’t without benefits. Although we’re very comfortable now, what about our descendants’ future? Those brats can’t even deal with a wild boar. Can they really support the entire North District in the future?”

The two men were silent. They wanted everyone to live a comfortable life, but if they lived a comfortable life for too long, they would lose the ability to resist external attacks.

If they died one day, who would protect their people?

“Let’s see what are the rules and regulations they’re talking about.”

“Alright.”

Su Ying also returned home before the sky completely darkened.

“Madam Su, what’s the use of keeping those people?” Qiao Yang jumped off the horse carriage and looked at the beautiful young men behind him.

Su Ying turned to look at the beautiful young men who had quietly alighted from the carriage after her. “Long Ba said that they can do anything.”

Qiao Yang refused to give up and asked, “Madam Su, you should consider me too. I can do anything too!”

Su Ying raised her eyebrows slightly. “Anything?”

Qiao Yang nodded frantically. “Anything!”

Su Ying nodded. “Then you can come in as well.”

“Hey! Alright!”

Su Ying had just entered the courtyard when Xiao Jin walked out of the house. His gaze swept past Su Ying’s face and landed on the beautiful young men behind her, and his brows twitched violently.

“Who are those?”

“A gift from the South District’s Area Chief,” Su Ying said as she leaned against a pillar.

Upon hearing this, the veins on Xiao Jin’s forehead bulged up and down a few times. “You accepted them just because he gave you?”

“It would be a waste not to accept them.”

“Very good.”

Su Ying glanced at Xiao Jin, thinking that his gaze was very odd.

“They are pretty good. Look at how young and energetic they are.”

Xiao Jin clenched his fists. So he was not young enough and not energetic enough!

“Alright, don’t just stand there. Follow me.”

Qiao Yang asked enthusiastically when he heard her, “Madam Su, do you want us… to come all at the same time?”

Su Ying nodded. “Yes, come on.”

“Yes, yes. Coming!”

Su Ying led Qiao Yang and the group of beautiful young men to the backyard.

The younger toddler Ling stuck her tiny head out from behind Xiao Jin. “Father, are those brothers here to snatch Mother?”

The older toddler Ji’s brows were so tightly knitted that they formed a Roman numeral III. “What should we do? They seem to be much younger than Father.” In the past, when he was in the prince’s palace, he had seen people send his father many beautiful young sisters. Ji felt that those young brothers who came back with his mother should be the same as those young sisters back then.

As for what it meant, it was not something a child like him could understand.

Aunt Zhao quickly went over to cover the mouths of the two little ones. “Young Miss, stop talking nonsense.. Although they are young, they are not as good-looking as Master!”
