There were only three words left in Jiang Yanyi's mind: It's game over!
Camp prostitutes are not allowed to leave the barracks without permission. Now that they have been caught red-handed by this military advisor, it is unclear how they will be punished.
She subconsciously wanted to run, but if she ran away at this moment, wouldn't she be unable to wash herself clean even if she jumped into the Yellow River
He could only watch Feng Shuo stride towards him.
Feng Shuo was always cold and serious. Just watching him walking towards her, Jiang Yanyi felt extremely stressed.
Feng Shuo glanced at the empty table, and then his eyes fell on the braised pork elbow in her hand.
He frowned and glanced at Jiang Yanyi's cherry lips which were stained with some sauce from eating the pork elbow. He then looked at the plate on the table. There was some minced meat on the plate, which looked quite tempting in color.
As if possessed by a ghost, he took a pair of clean chopsticks from the bamboo tube, picked up a small piece of minced meat from the plate, brought it to his mouth, and ate it.
The pork elbow was stewed until soft and tender, with a strong sauce flavor. The lean meat was very juicy and not dry at all. Maybe it was because of the sugar added when pouring the sauce, there was a slight sweet aftertaste after eating.
Feng Shuo savored the small piece of meat, his expression didn't change much, but his heart was filled with turmoil.
His sense of taste has completely recovered!
Feng Shuo stared at the little cook whose face, dull even after being covered with soot from the pot, his eyes were dark and unclear.
Jiang Yanyi was so frightened by his reckless behavior that his hair almost stood on end. When he smelled the alcohol on Feng Shuo's body, he thought he was drunk and acting crazy, so he held the pork elbow and wanted to move his seat for him.
Unexpectedly, before her butt could move half an inch away, the "drunkard" suddenly grabbed her wrist.
Jiang Yanyi thought he wanted the braised pork elbow, so he quickly handed it to him like a hot potato: "Here you go!"
Feng Shuo: "... Sit down."
His whole body suddenly became cold, and Jiang Yanyi couldn't help but shiver.
Although she was sitting on a bench, she felt as if there were countless steel needles sticking under her buttocks.
Feng Shuo stared at her for a long while with a dark look in his eyes. He was full of doubts and asked, "What did you do to me?"
Why is it that my sense of taste only returns when I am close to her
When Jiang Yanyi heard his words, he was immediately overwhelmed.
Could it be that this guy was abandoned by the girl he loved and came here to get drunk
Serves him right, this pervert deserves this!
While thinking this in her heart, she said awkwardly: "You got the wrong person. I'm not the girl who hurt you..."
girl
Hurt his heart
What is she talking about
Feng Shuo's face looked grim, and the aura around him became even colder.
Jiang Yanyi felt a chill on her back, fearing that he would break her neck in a drunken impulse, so she quickly changed her words: "I am, I am. It's all my fault. I stole your heart..."
The more you talk, the more outrageous it gets.
Feng Shuo's face darkened, and veins on his forehead throbbed: "Shut up!"
Jiang Yanyi shut up instantly, and almost shrank into a quail.
Because of Feng Shuo's cold shout, many diners in the restaurant lobby looked over here, but intimidated by his aura, they didn't dare to look any longer, and the noise from their eating became quieter.
The diner at the next table was a chubby little girl. She only heard the second half of Jiang Yanyi's sentence and was so startled that she dropped the meatball she had just picked up on the table. She looked at the two of them furtively with a look of shock.
Are gays so open in public
The little girl thought she had discovered some secret, but the handsome young man's face was so gloomy that it was so frightening that she didn't dare to eat the food and quickly paid the bill and left.
The busy waiter also noticed Feng Shuo coming downstairs. He wiped the sweat off his forehead and quickly came forward with the teapot: "Sir, let me add some tea for you."
Feng Shuo was originally upset because of his mother's affairs, but after being angered by Jiang Yanyi, his depression disappeared and he no longer had the heart to drink.
He picked up the tea that the waiter had just poured and took a sip, savoring the bitter taste of the tea.
The waiter asked with a big smile on his face, "What would you like to eat, sir?"
Feng Shuo had no appetite. He glanced at the shiny and greasy pork elbow in Jiang Yanyi's hand and said casually, "Let's have this pork elbow."
The waiter hurried to the kitchen to pass on the message.
Jiang Yanyi found that he spoke normally and thought to himself, could it be that he has sobered up
She now deeply regretted entering this restaurant. Her heartbeat felt like a roller coaster while eating. The pork elbow in her hand suddenly lost its fragrance...
She put the half-eaten pork elbow back on the plate, wiped her hands with the silk handkerchief that the restaurant specially prepared for diners, picked up her bags and tried to run away: "I'm done, enjoy your meal..."
Feng Shuo glanced at her, with no intention of letting her go: "How did you get out of the military camp?"
Without waiting for Jiang Yanyi to answer, he continued, "The cook at Huotouying said that you took sick leave."
Jiang Yanyi: “…”
It’s over!
It would be strange if she could leave when she was being asked openly and threatened implicitly.
Was this person really drunk just now? How did he sober up so quickly
Jiang Yanyi groaned inwardly, and raised his half buttocks but fell back onto the bench.
Fearing that it would cause trouble for Chef Li and Tou'er Zhao, she said, "I was so bold that I lied to Chef Li, saying that it was cold and I didn't have any thick clothes to wear, so I caught a cold and wanted to go out and buy some clothes..."
Feng Shuo glanced at the package she placed aside. The package was not tied tightly, revealing the fabric inside. It was indeed clothes.
But it was not worth taking such a big risk for a set of clothes. He then asked: "What is your real purpose of leaving the camp this time?"
Jiang Yanyi showed just the right amount of sadness on his face: "I want to go find my fiancé."
When she forged her household registration before, she used the excuse that she was in Xizhou to find her childhood fiancé and was abducted to the military camp. Now she used this excuse again.
Hearing the word "fiancé", Feng Shuo's hand holding the tea paused slightly.
"Sir, the pork elbow in sauce you ordered is here!" The waiter served the dish attentively.
The freshly-cooked braised pork elbow had bright red skin and a tempting aroma, but Feng Shuo inexplicably lost his appetite at this moment.
He had previously checked Jiang Yanyi's identity, and naturally heard from the barracks leader about her looking for a fiancé.
His tone suddenly turned bad: "Even if he finds you, what can you do? With your status as a camp prostitute, even if he finds you, he may not want you."
Hearing this, Jiang Yanyi's lips twitched slightly, barely perceptible.
She didn't notice that his tone was wrong, she just felt that he was a mean guy. He said that just to hurt her. After all, how many men in the world could accept that their wives had been camp prostitutes
Since the other party wants to see you sad, just go along with him.
Jiang Yanyi pretended to be distraught, his eyes were misty, as if he was about to cry at the next moment.
Feng Shuo saw it and felt even more annoyed.
But the other person was still looking at him with tears in his eyes, like a rabbit.
Feng Shuo thought that she looked like someone had bullied her.
Come to think of it, wasn't it me who bullied her
For some reason, seeing her look like she was about to cry, Feng Shuo suddenly remembered the belt of her vest that extended from her chest to the back of her neck under the moonlight.
It was bright red and slender, just like the taut string in his head, so fragile.
He suddenly wanted to know if she was also like this when she was in bed, whether she wanted to cry or not? Or... would she cry out loud and look at him pitifully with a pair of misty eyes...
Feng Shuo was shocked by his own thoughts. He quickly looked away, picked up the teacup and drank it all in one gulp.
Jiang Yanyi didn't notice that there was something wrong with his eyes, and continued to play the victim: "I hope the military advisor will be kind and not report me."
Feng Shuo didn't answer her directly, but only asked: "Did you find him?"
"I haven't found him yet, but I saw a notice at the city gate this morning saying that the general is kind and wants to release innocent prostitutes like me to go home. So I plan to rent a shop near the Protectorate, open a restaurant and do some small business, and then slowly look for him."
When Feng Shuo heard Jiang Yanyi say that she was planning to open a small restaurant next to the Protectorate, his eyes lit up slightly.
But when he heard the second half of her sentence, saying that she still had to go find her fiancé, Feng Shuo felt even more annoyed.
He was about to say something, but Jiang Yanyi suddenly said, "Originally, as a weak woman, I would not dare to do such business in the market. But I heard that the main street of the Protectorate is the residence of the general. Others say that the general is mighty and loves the people like his own children. Robbers and thieves dare not do evil in this generation because of his reputation. That's why I chose this place. So..."
Feng Shuo was feeling a little annoyed, but after hearing Jiang Yanyi's words of praise, his brows couldn't help but relax a little.
The braised pork elbow on the table suddenly looked delicious again.
He uses chopsticks, picks up the meat, and eats it, all in one smooth motion.
He said, "Go on."
"So, Military Advisor, since you are always by the side of the general, you must be a good person who is perceptive, sensible, and considerate of the people. This time, just pretend that you have never seen me leave the camp... Okay?"
Feng Shuo did not answer, his eyes became more relaxed.
Under Jiang Yanyi's eager gaze, he finished the braised pork elbow on the plate in just a few bites, looking quite satisfied.
"military adviser?"
Jiang Yanyi was about to say something else when Feng Shuo suddenly said, "Waiter, check out!"
The waiter came over in a hurry. Feng Shuo didn't wait for him to make an offer, but left a silver ingot and said, "Let's settle it together."
One ingot of silver was worth ten taels, which was more than enough to pay for the wine. The waiter was very surprised and started to flatter him.
Feng Shuo walked out of the restaurant at great speed, and did not respond even when Jiang Yanyi called him from behind.
Jiang Yanyi's face was almost wrinkled into a bun, and he had no idea what he meant.
She chased out with her bags, only to see Feng Shuo's back as he rode away on his horse.
Jiang Yanyi stood there in a daze for a while: "Since you helped pay for the meal, I think you promised not to report me, right?"
Jiang Yanyi stopped a mule cart and rushed to meet up with Zhao Tou'er and the others. He followed them back to the Xizhou camp with trepidation, and found that everything was normal. Only then did he feel relieved.
The camp prostitutes were still taking a nap in the barracks, but they couldn't sleep today. The amnesty order had been issued, and several decent women had never expected that this day would actually come, and they cried their hearts out.
A few people who were on good terms with them gathered together to comfort them.
However, more women were at a loss, as they were truly guilty. The Huotouying Camp was now recruiting a large number of new cooks, and they would soon be sent away.
Qiu Kui was very happy to get the new clothes, but also a little sad: "Hua Hua, I am happy for you to leave here, but I can't bear to leave you. The sugar-roasted chestnuts you make are delicious, and the braised pork patties taste the same as my mother's..."
Jiang Yanyi was not in the military camp that morning, so she didn't know how the camp arranged for the convicted prostitutes. She asked her, "Did the higher-ups say where they will be sent next?"
Qiu Kui was a dull person. Before he could answer, Chun Xiang, who was beaten to the point of being half-breathed and unable to get out of bed, suddenly laughed in a weird way, her voice extremely sharp: "Of course we were sent to do hard labor washing clothes, and we can't compare to you, Chef Jiang, in your glory."
Hearing this, Jiang Yanyi glanced at Chunxiang and said, "You are already like this, but you still don't forget to make trouble for yourself?"
"you… "
Chunxiang was speechless after hearing Jiang Yanyi's words. Jiang Yanyi is no longer the same person he used to be, and she no longer has Liu Cheng as her backer, so she dare not provoke Jiang Yanyi too much.
"Huahua, it's okay. Hard labor is better than being a camp prostitute. If you can come to see me in the future, just bring me some pork pie with preserved vegetables."
As Qiu Kui spoke, her eyes dimmed slightly. She was sold to a brothel by her aunt, and then ended up in a place like this, becoming a camp prostitute. She had long since given up any hope in life.
Jiang Yan felt a little upset when he saw this, but he didn't know what he could do for her.
At this time, Chunxiang's sarcastic voice came again: "It's good that you know it. Don't think that you can be like others just by flattering them for a few days. In the end, you can only rot in this hard-working place like me. Unless someone is willing to buy you back to be a slave. But, who would buy a former camp prostitute?"
Chunxiang didn't dare to provoke Jiang Yanyi, so she started to make fun of Qiu Kui instead.
Anyway, this guy is a fool and doesn't know how to talk back when being scolded.
As Qiu Kui listened to Chunxiang's words, his eyes dimmed completely. He clenched the corner of his clothes tightly in his hands and remained silent.
Jiang Yanyi couldn't listen any more, she turned around and glared at Chunxiang, then walked towards Chunxiang's bed.
Under the stunned gazes of Chunxiang and Qiukui, Jiang Yanyi stretched out a finger and poked hard at the torn butt.
"ah!"
Chunxiang screamed like a pig being slaughtered, her face turned pale, and beads of cold sweat broke out on her forehead.
"It's never going to end, is it? Do you think everyone will tolerate you?"
Jiang Yanyi looked down at Chunxiang who was lying on the bed. Chunxiang's lips were trembling, and she no longer had the arrogance of the past.
Jiang Yanyi just made a gesture of wiping his hands, which immediately scared her: "I don't dare to do it again. I won't dare to do it again."
There was a hint of pleading in Jiang Yanyi's eyes.
***
In the big tent.
Chi Qing flipped through the pile of lists that Feng Shuo threw to him and marked all the prostitutes who could be released from the barracks.
When he found that the name "Jiang Hua" was also on the list of people leaving the camp, he couldn't help but ask, "Your Majesty, this Jiang Hua, didn't you say that you would temporarily detain her in the army on the grounds that you couldn't verify her identity?"
Feng Shuo raised his head from a pile of official documents and said calmly, "Well, I have changed my mind."
Chi Qing looked confused: "Didn't you say that she might be a spy? What if she runs away if we let her go?"
Feng Shuo raised the corner of his mouth imperceptibly: "It doesn't matter, she is right under my nose."
Chi Qing had a feeling that something was fishy, but before he could ask more questions, Xing Yao opened the tent and hurried in: "Master, the scouts reported that something happened in Dingjia Village!"
Author has something to say: Jiang Yanyi: Fortunately I told him I would live next door to him, otherwise I would have been detained in the military camp...
