It’s just that Master doesn’t want to say it.
If you only regard my advice to you as meddling in your affairs, there is nothing I can do about it.
My intention is good. I just want you to do things better. How can you not understand that? "
Hua Menglian simply used both emotion and reason to persuade people, with eloquent and heartfelt words.
Unfortunately, Qu Jing didn't seem to appreciate the senior sister's gentle words, and simply suggested:
"Really? Then why don't you do it? How about you show me how to do it yourself
I'm not doing it well enough. Senior sister, can you show me how to do it
Take this year's pruning for example, you can prune one tree for me to see so I can learn from you."
Qu Jing pointed to the Xianyun fruit tree that was hundreds of meters tall and said.
The Xianyun fruit tree has very lush branches and leaves. If you don't prune it this year, it will only grow leaves next year and will produce very few fruits. This is the key to caring for this fruit tree.
It would take a lot of time for one person to repair such a large number of trees.
If it has never been repaired, it will take more time and still not be repaired properly.
There are some rules for deciding which branches to keep and which branches not to keep. It may seem simple, but it is actually a technical job.
Hua Menglian had never actually done this job, so of course she didn't have this skill.
Die Yixian had been pruning branches for hundreds of years and was very experienced. Every year the fruits were large and numerous, but all the credit went to the eldest sister.
The elders of the sect all said that it was because of Uncle Hua or Grandmaster Hua’s good management that the Xianyun Fruit had a bumper harvest every year.
Hua Menglian, who had always been good at talking on paper, felt a little embarrassed for a moment, simply because she had never done it herself.
Suddenly I have to do it myself, and it seems like I don’t know where to start!
"Why? Don't you want to teach me?" Qu Jing's eyes were filled with sarcasm, "You are our senior sister, and you should set a good example for your junior brothers and sisters.
Don't just talk the talk and not practice the walk. Don't always say that others are lazy and take shortcuts, but you yourself do nothing. "
Hua Menglian was once again caught off guard by her junior brother's retort, and it took her a long time to come back to her senses.
She suddenly stretched out her broken fingers, staring at Bai Chen with murderous intent in her eyes.
"Who did this?"
Don't change the subject so quickly.
“How can I work when my hands can no longer hold tools
He even says that it wasn't you who instigated him, and he even says that it wasn't you. How could he, a teenager, have such courage
Junior sister, it’s bad enough that you are lazy, but do you want to teach the kids bad things
Back then, you always loved to be lazy and take shortcuts. If I hadn’t urged you all the time, would you have advanced to the Nascent Soul stage and then to the Divine Transformation stage so quickly
Of course, in the end, it was you who was killed by lightning because of your own inability to live up to expectations. You can’t blame others.”
Bai Chen laughed in his heart at Hua Menglian's remarks about not having a thick face, and wanted to spit in her face again.
He is so shameless that he is invincible.
She actually took all the credit for the original owner's rapid advancement.
Hua Menglian became more and more excited as she spoke, and continued to speak out, "At that time, I was just tolerating you all the time, but you should not pass on your bad behavior to my junior brother!
After all, he is only a teenager. Do you think he will achieve nothing in the future
What on earth are you thinking? "
Bai Chen hated himself for not being able to say anything about Hua Menglian's confusing right and wrong. He gestured anxiously, looking quite pitiful.
Because she knew that at this time Ling Huatian had already spread out his spiritual sense to observe him and several of his disciples.
Hua Menglian didn't feel it, but Huahua did.
He was very curious about what important matter the eldest disciple had that made him invite the two younger ones to the back mountain to discuss it, as if he was deliberately hiding it from his master.
Seeing Bai Chen's anxious look, Qu Jing did not argue with Hua Menglian anymore, but acted as a translator again.
"My junior sister said that you are wrongly accusing her. Since she became my disciple at the age of eight, she has planted all the flowers and plants on Piao Miao Peak with her own hands.
She is the one who cleans every corner, and you just keep ordering her around.
Moreover, she is the one who prunes and irrigates the Xianyun fruit trees here every year, and you are just the supervisor.
However, all the Immortal Cloud Fruits that were originally meant for Piao Miao Peak went into your pocket. She only had ten in the past five hundred years, and those ten were obtained from the master. "
The words translated by Qu Jing made Hua Menglian blush and turn pale, because those were all facts.
She has been doing this for hundreds of years, and she feels that she has done nothing wrong, but this seems to be the first time she has said it so openly.
But soon, she found a reason for herself.
"She did all this? How could she do it if I didn't teach her step by step? Besides, a manager's job is to make arrangements.
Go and take a look at the sect leader's nephew. When has he ever done any rough work himself
As for the Xianyun Fruit, how can such a precious thing be wasted casually
The expenses of Piao Miao Peak are so huge, and Master is a careless person, so I have to sell it to fill the gap, right? "
"Really? Is the expense really that huge?" Qu Jing immediately questioned, "During the time when you were away, I managed Piao Miao Peak for five years, and the sect's personal expenses were enough to cover the expenses.
Add to that the harvest of some spiritual plants, flowers and tea, and there is still a surplus every year!
I have kept accounts of the income and expenditure for the past five years, and the account book is still with Master! Senior Sister, would you like to take a look
Senior sister, you should remember that you have accounts, could you please take them out for everyone to see
After all, we are all disciples of the master, and we are all considered his direct disciples, so our status is not lower than yours."
Every leader would keep accounts, but Hua Menglian had never taken out the account book to look at it, so it was hard to say whether she had kept any accounts or not.
In Die Yixian's memory, it seemed that there was a record, but her master didn't know where her account book was.
To Ling Huatian, those were all mundane matters, so who cares.
As long as a few disciples can study hard in Piaomiao Peak and make progress every day, that will be enough.
He doesn't care about anything else.
Hua Menglian was choked by Qu Jing and felt very depressed. "You have the right? What rights do you have
The little brat actually had the guts to challenge me. If no one instigated him, who would believe him?"
Hua Menglian was at a loss for words and actually repeated her original words again, and had to bring up the topic of someone being a villain and instigating his junior brother.
Qu Jing was so angry that his face turned red, and he almost yelled, "I have to tell you so many times, no one instigated me.
Don't always put the blame on others.
What I'm talking about are my personal experiences over the past two years.
Don't think that you are the only one who is noble and cannot do rough work.
He even used the excuse of injured finger as an excuse and refused to even demonstrate it once.
When you were holding the sword, I didn't see you say that your hand was injured and you couldn't hold the sword.
The slight injury on the index finger will not affect the grip at all, but you found such a ridiculous reason. Don’t you think that such a reason is not convincing at all
You don't want to do it because you have never done it before and you don't know how to prune.
You just do the talking.
In the past two years, I have been doing everything by myself, from pruning to irrigation, and you only gave me a few of the spiritual fruits, and junior sister didn't get any.
