Rebirth of the Three Kingdoms: Da Qiao doesn't want to be a widow anymore

Chapter 275 Letters
Wu Fan's plan was very successful. The wildfire burned down Pan Lin's pride and also burned down Pan Lin's retreat. After the heavy rain put out the wildfire, Pan Lin could not escape the fate of being killed.

The annihilation of the Shanyue tribe in Kuaiji was also the first step in the Jiangdong regime's campaign to eliminate the Shanyue tribe.

He Qi killed Pan Lin and captured 6,000 mountain people to serve as military households.

Sun An came back and told Qiao Wei about their battle process with dancing and excitement, not even caring about the dirt on her body. Qiao Wei put her in the bathtub and rubbed her back personally to clean her. He couldn't stop Sun An from telling her story, and his eyes were full of light.

"It's a pity. Pan Ju was really lucky. He discovered the fire quickly and managed to escape with his men. However, I shot him with my wrath, so I think he won't survive." Sun An picked up a towel and washed himself. "Otherwise, I could have counted one more head."

The army has always calculated military merit by the number of people each person killed. Therefore, in order to accumulate military merit, after killing the enemy, most people would choose to cut off the physical ears or noses as proof of their military merit.

Therefore, it is almost impossible for the protagonist that Qiao Wei sees in modern times to crawl out from a pile of buried dead bodies and escape death.

Because even if a person is really lucky and has a long life, the person who can escape death must have one of his facial features taken away, and it is easy to be recognized at a glance in the crowd. This person who is missing an ear or a nose must have escaped from the battlefield.

Even if the person doesn't die, sociality will die.

Sun An's smug expression was written all over his face. "I thought Pan Lin was so powerful! I didn't expect that even God would help our Sun family. We solved the problem with just one fire. Speaking of which, the Fury and the Mechanical Crossbow are really useful. And the Huang brothers, you didn't see how Pan Lin looked before he died. When you saw the brothers, their eyes were wide open and you thought they saw a ghost. They cursed so nastyly."

There was clearly some lingering feeling in her tone, "I don't know which Shanyue leader brother is going to attack next, Poyang or Danyang? How can such a small group of unruly people not be convinced by the troops of my Sun family?" She grabbed her tangled hair, feeling very uncomfortable.

During the march and the battle, there was no time to wash. After a month, Sun An's hair was covered with dirt and tangled in a mess. Qiao Wei combed his hair out in small clumps, then cleaned it with soap and rinsed it with clean water.

"Don't underestimate those mountain people. They surrendered and rebelled repeatedly. In the final analysis, it's because they felt that they couldn't survive in the mountains."

If people in this world could survive and live a good life by being good and following the rules, there would be fewer people who have to go against their conscience and take risks.

Sun An disagreed. "It would be fine if they couldn't survive. So many people can survive and live and work in peace, but they just rebelled and wanted to be traitors. It's just that human nature is evil and difficult to educate."

Qiao Wei was a little shocked. With just a few words, such a big hat was put on someone. But if we really talk about justice, the Sun family might not be innocent!

"By the way, sister-in-law, now that things here are over, when are we going to go down the mountain and go home?" Sun An lay on the edge of the bathtub and turned back to look at Qiao Wei, "Brother Zhong has written several letters."

Sun An's face was full of teasing, and his eyes were full of amusement when he looked at Qiao Wei.

After Qiao Wei left Wu County, Sun Quan first wrote two letters to Qiao Wei. The first letter asked if his family was safe, and Qiao Wei replied directly with two words, "safe and sound", without even a word. He just picked up a piece of yellow paper from the table and wrote without thinking. Later, the second letter came, asking Qiao Wei how things were going, and Qiao Wei also replied with two words, "OK".

When Sun An saw the two words on the envelope, he was very puzzled, "Sister-in-law, you are too casual!"

The letters from Sun Quan were all full of paper! Shouldn't this letter also contain some private conversations between husband and wife?
Anyway, when she saw Brother Fen and Sister-in-law Huang writing letters, they wanted to write ten pages without even picking up the pen, and wrote about all the trivial things. She also asked her aunt for advice, and her aunt said that this was the fun of a short separation that made the new marriage more interesting.

Sun An didn't understand but thought it was reasonable. However, Qiao Wei's approach made her feel that it was both incomprehensible and unreasonable.

"Your brother is busy and has no time to read so many words." Qiao Wei didn't think there was anything wrong with her approach. She was deeply influenced by modern vernacular Chinese, which emphasized conciseness and avoiding nonsense.

Although Sun Quan wrote a lot of words, it can actually be summed up in one sentence: Are you safe?

Then she answered with "all is well", which was completely in line with the topic.

The same goes for “okay”.

It can even express the tortuous mental journey of achieving the expected goals overall even though things did not go completely smoothly.

But Sun An obviously did not accept this answer.

Qiao Wei thought for a while and said, "The matter of Baishishan is confidential. How can we leave any traces on the documents? If it is intercepted by someone with ulterior motives, wouldn't it be a failure? When we return home, there are so many things that we cannot say. Why rush at this moment?"

Okay, this answer barely passes.

But Sun An's agreement does not mean that Sun Quan will agree.

After receiving only two-word replies in a row, Sun Quan simply wrote to Sun An. Facing his own sister, Sun Quan was not so polite. His words were all about asking Sun An to concentrate, stop running around outside, not fall behind in his studies, and not be lazy in practicing calligraphy.

Sun An could hardly understand Sun Quan's arrogance. What did he mean by "calculate your mind"? It was obvious that he was asking them indirectly when they would go back. It was obvious that he didn't hear the good words he wanted to hear from his sister-in-law, so he was secretly urging her to go home through her mouth!
Sun An used a towel to dry his wet hair while teasing Qiao Wei, "I don't think it's me who's obsessed, it's my sister-in-law! It's a pity that Brother Zhong looks into the south every night, not knowing when he'll see his wife and children."

Qiao Wei got goosebumps from her words. "Your second brother works hard day and night. As a grown man, how could he care so much about these romantic things?"

"Really?" Sun An thought that if he had the time to write such a long letter, how could he not care about romantic matters? It was obviously his sister-in-law who was shy and embarrassed to write.
