There was not much hatred between them in the first place, and Pang Rou was a very smart and kind girl, so the conversation between Su Yao and her was quite pleasant. When Pang Rou said goodbye and left, the two of them were already talking and laughing, which made Su Rong, who came to find Su Yao, a little confused.
However, Su Rong was not a person who cared about trivial matters. The person who had offended Kong Kuang before was Pang Yuan, not Pang Rou. He politely greeted Pang Rou and waited until Pang Rou left before asking Su Yao, "What's going on? Pang Yuan just came to me today to apologize. Isn't his sister going to do the same thing?"
This is just a joke of course.
Su Yao explained the whole story with a smile. He went to check on Su Rong's ear and saw that the wound had almost healed, leaving only an outward-turned scar. He sighed in annoyance.
Su Rong couldn't help laughing: "What's wrong? You are a real man, and you are fighting in a war. You should thank God and your ancestors for your life. It's just a scar. Can't you bear it? You are not that kind of person."
Knowing that Su Rong was deliberately joking and making things sound light, Su Yao still couldn't help but worry.
She knew it was not that simple. If Bai Xue had not pulled out the poisonous insect in time, Su Rong would have been deaf. Even if it was pulled out in time, the wound on Su Rong looked very hideous, at least compared to before, it was really disfigured. She didn't feel anything because of this, but she thought that her grandmother and sister-in-law would be sad when she saw it.
Seeing that she didn't say anything, Su Rong knew what she was thinking. He rubbed her hair and comforted her, "Well, you are lucky to be alive. Even grandma and elder sister will understand. Don't worry about it here. Don't you think the burden on your shoulders is heavy enough?"
After comforting Su Yao for a few words, he changed the subject: "By the way, Miss Bai Xue from the Heihua Miao Village is here. She is now in the study of His Highness. Do you want to go and see her?"
Su Yao glanced at him and saw that he was coughing unnaturally. He knew that Su Rong was still worried about the fact that the Black Flower Miao Village had to marry Bai Xue to Xiao Heng. He shook his head in anger and amusement: "Forget it, there's nothing to see. If Miss Bai wants to come to see me, she will naturally come to me."
If she doesn't come, it means Bai Xue has no reason to look for her. In that case, what's the point of going in the past
Su Rong had no way to deal with his sister. Seeing that she refused to go, he could do nothing. He just asked worriedly, "Forget about that. What are your plans for after you return to Beijing?"
So he came to ask this. Su Yao suddenly realized it. She turned around and saw that he couldn't suppress the worry on his face. She was silent for a moment and said, "Yes."
Su Rong immediately asked nervously: "What are your plans?"
But just as he finished asking, Yan Cao shouted from outside: "Girl, Miss Bai is here!"
Su Rong felt helpless.
Speak of the devil and he will appear.
Bai Xue came in while they were talking. Seeing Su Rong here, she checked his wound for him. After confirming that he was fine, she smiled and said to Su Rong, "I heard that you are going back to Beijing, so let's say goodbye here."
Su Rong always had some subconscious fear of people who could control insects. He coughed a few times, found an excuse and left.
Bai Xue and Su Yao were the only ones left in the yard.
She sighed and said, "I heard that General Su was invincible and could kill people on the battlefield as easily as chopping melons and vegetables. Now it seems that's not entirely true."
Su Yao didn't mind the joke and asked her to sit down under the wisteria trellis in the yard. Then he said, "He is terribly afraid of your insects. Now he gets goose bumps when he mentions insects. You should stop teasing him."
Snow White was not wearing a veil today, and there was a rare smile on her face, which showed how happy she was.
When she heard Su Yao say this, she actually laughed out loud, and then she watched Su Yao make tea and said softly: "When I went down the mountain, Elder Allen felt a little sorry and asked me if I would regret it."
Su Yao raised his head and glanced at her: "What are you regretting?"
"I regret not insisting that His Highness must marry me!" Bai Xue's eyes widened, and she looked like a cute white rabbit. "I told him that I don't regret it. What's so good about His Highness? After all, no matter how good he is, you can't marry a man who has other women in his heart. If you want to talk about regrets, I do regret it. I should have made a request, so that you can stay in Miaojiang for the rest of your life."
Su Yao paused while pouring tea for her, and said calmly, "Ah, I didn't expect your hobby is so special."
The two looked at each other and couldn't help but burst out laughing.
After joking, Bai Xue said, "Do you know why I came down the mountain?"
Su Yao thought for a moment and asked, "Is it for those children?"
Bai Xue was not surprised that Su Yao could guess it. She hummed and said very frankly, "It's all our Miao people's fault that they are like this. His Highness said that he plans to send those who are of the right age to the army. This is always a way out. I agree with it. After all, at their age, they have been in Miaojiang for seven or eight years... It's hard for them to go home and find their families. Even if they do find them, it's actually hard. They've been away for too long, and their families may not still expect them to be, or it's hard for them to treat them the same way as before. The older ones will serve in the army, and I want to take the younger ones to the Miao village."
Su Yao frowned for a rare moment: "They are all children around seven or eight years old, and most of them are boys. Are you ready?"
Bai Xue knew Su Yao's doubts as soon as she heard them, so she assured him, "You know, the court has allowed us to build a unified Miao village. We will always need guards in the village. I plan to take these children to the mountains and educate them well, just like the children in our tribe. Many people in our tribe have lost their children because of this incident. I will find a way to let them raise these children. Don't worry, I will personally inquire about the children's affairs and will not let them suffer any grievances."
Su Yao was silent for a while: "Did your highness agree?"
Bai Xue shook her head: "Not yet, he said he would think about it."
Su Yao also nodded: "We need to think about it carefully. I know you are sincere, but we need to ask those children what they think."
The children are indeed pitiful, and we really don’t know what to do with them.
However, for the victims who have been abused by the Miao people for many years, they may not be willing to continue living with the Miao people.
