Volume 1, Chapter 46: Are You Going to Marry Her or Not? Good Girls Are in High Demand

"Picking green ones again today?"
Shen Zhiyi blinked her eyes.
"I'll pick all of them."
She could use the green ones to make pickled crispy plums; dipped in chili salt, they were outrageously delicious.
"No need to pick them all, leave some for tomorrow!"
She still understood the principle of sustainable development.
Look, didn't that provide an excuse to meet next time?
Observing the change in Qiu Shuang's expression and linking it to the usual rumors, the palace maid's expression suddenly shifted. She pointed a finger at Qiu Shuang, yet remained unable to utter a single word for a long time.
You Zong glared fiercely, locking gazes with Li Wenyans evil and seductive face. His lips trembled, but he could not find a single word to scold him.
Taking another look at Wang Qiangs mecha, he discovered that a baffle plate on the mechas abdomen was missing at some point, revealing a dark, ominous muzzle.
He did not understand why the Li family had come to this, nor did he know that his son and grandson could be so utterly devoid of competence. Could it be that he had been too lenient with them all this time?
"Watch your phrasing, that's your mommy, not mine..." Grand Administrator corrected promptly, wiping away a drop of sweat.
Haotian had not expected Rize Kamishiro to use him as a bargaining chip. He could not help feeling a bit surprised, while simultaneously sizing up Rize Kamishiro carefully.
This Phoenix Roaring Sonic Wave technique had just been mastered by Venerable Fluttering Dance, and she could not control it skillfully yet, so the attack made no distinction between friend and foe.
Hearing Dongfang Qiug's voice, Tang Baobao turned back, not forgetting the matter from just a moment ago. "Uncle Dongfang, hurry up and come over! I've been waiting for you for so long. Watch me beat you until you're completely wiped out!" Tang Baobao's pitch-black eyes flashed with playful brilliance, and with a clenched fist, she looked extremely smug.
The next day, before the sky had even grown bright, Nangong Yi entered the palace early. He had to see the Emperor before the morning court session to explain everything. He hoped the Emperor would not blame him for yesterday's helpless lie, and even more, he hoped he would not blame Ling Yuwei.
"Sigh..." Hearing this, Tang Baobao let out a similarly regretful sigh. Dongfang Qiu had been a soldier for over a decade, and after finally working his way up to the position of squad leader, he was just giving it up like that. It truly was a pity.
I ate the meat she picked for me, chewing it very carefully. Because I cannot eat food low in blood, I would have to find a place to spit it out later. If I did not chew it finely enough, it might get stuck in my throat.
He must know that there were still two people in this world stronger than Mu Nanhua: Zuo Ci and Yu Ji, not to mention that bizarre black-robed person from last time. Right now, any one of them could easily finish him off.
Perhaps due to the weather, there were not many people taking the carriage, so they did not have to spend too much time waiting in line.
"We'll discuss everything when the time comes. How are the scouts under Yang Mei doing?" Chen Mo asked, looking toward Yang Mei.
However, at this very moment, Xiao Yu was not in Tianshan County, the core of Yanran Prefecture. Instead, he was traveling day and night, hurrying toward the Anbei Protectorate to pay his respects to the newly appointed Grand Protector, Jiang Lue.
Xu Zhi and the other three quickly turned around to face the interior of the room. They saw two disciples of the Longjiao Gang holding sabers against Granny Xue's neck, pushing her out the door.
Xu Zhi and Zhou Yuanzhi did not dare to let Huang Chao stay alone at the prefectural yamen, so they had no choice but to transfer him overnight to the inn where the various heroes were staying. Everyone had traveled a long distance and were exhausted, sleeping soundly until noon the next day before waking up.
This was the difference between being favored and not being favored. Concubines without favor, even if their official allowances were set there, while not exactly being deducted or squeezed, would only receive what others had picked through. Those serving them might not be entirely dedicated either, all wanting to climb up to higher branches. Being favored was different; even if you did not try to win people over, those beneath you would still rack their brains to please you.
Suddenly yanked up fiercely by Wuntaro, the young man in charge of the Iga family's soul jade tablets was instantly startled as well, and hastily spoke.
Yet, Zuoqiu Liye remained calm and composed. Facing her bewildered gaze, he remained unmoved, as if he thoroughly enjoyed her fixated attention on him.
