Chapter 708
"……you are vicious,"

Facing the threat of the female bandit Xiao Nan, Qi Ling, who claims to have practiced for thousands of years, had no choice but to admit it, "Okay, I'm giving you half a month. I won't wait for you!!"

Qi Ling has no body, but Xiao Nan still feels the other party's extreme displeasure.

If you are not happy, you are not happy. This guy's mood has nothing to do with him.

As for whether she would offend Qi Ling because of this, Xiao Nan calmly said that she had no idea, because compared to this, she still felt that her own life and the lives of her children were more important.

"Thank you,"

Xiao Nan waved to Qi Ling silently in his heart, then walked in front of Xiao Yi and the others, and said, "You guys are tired after working for me for so many days, and the other islands can't be left unattended. How about this, you go back for half a month to repair, and after half a month, I will 'invite' you to help."

A pair of thin lips were tightly pressed, Xiao Yi was silent for a moment, and then said: "Madam, do you still remember the original promise?"

They have been working in Taoyuan day and night for three months, and it is that kind of free voluntary labor, and their actions are subject to human control, which makes the biochemical people who have long been used to being the masters very uncomfortable uncomfortable.

Especially Xiao Yi, he was an island owner who had the final say on everything in Taicang Island, but here, he fell back to being a hard-working slave again.

He didn't want to be Xiao Nan's slave for the rest of his life.

Xiao Nan raised his eyebrows, and said with a mocking smile: "Promise? The most reliable biochemical person in the 26th century will betray his master. Can promises be trusted?"

Xiao Yi's face froze, and embarrassment flashed in his calm eyes.

The other three cyborgs also looked like this. Obviously, Xiao Nan's words directly pointed out the biggest stain in their lives.

After a moment of silence, Xiao Yi said in a deep voice: "Madam, this is the end of the matter, why do you—"

It has been done, it is already an established fact, is it interesting to engage in some verbal disputes?

Xiao Nan smiled coldly, and said, "You can do it, but I can't say it?"

Ever since Xiao Yi and the others betrayed her, Xiao Nan had a sigh of relief in her chest. She was too busy a few days ago and was eager to let Xiao Yi and the others work for her, so she kept silent.

When this matter was brought up by chance today, Xiao Nan thought of the hurt and loss caused to her by the betrayal of those people that day, and the anger that was simmering finally came out.

Having said that, Xiao Nan felt much more at ease. She let out a long breath and said, "Don't worry, I'm not you, and what I said will count. This time, you will help me cultivate for another five days. The grievances have been canceled. From then on, Taicang Island, Dongcang Island and other islands will be completely owned by you. Even if my sea boat can go to sea, I will not send anyone to seize it."

Xiao Yi was still drooping his head, staring at his toes gloomily.

Hearing Xiao Nan's words suddenly, he hurriedly raised his head and looked straight at Xiao Nan to make sure if she was joking.

Finding Xiao Nan's serious expression, Xiao Yi breathed a sigh of relief this time, and said, "Okay, after half a month, we will come back to work for Madam for another five days. After five days, we will have nothing to do with each other again."

The reason why Xiao Yi was willing to obediently stay in Taoyuan with his companions to work for Xiao Nan was because at first, he was frightened by the sudden appearance of Xiao Nan, fearing that everything would go back to the past; the second reason was because As far as he knew, Xiao Nan had several inventors under his command, and one of them was working hard to research a large ship that could sail into the deep sea.

Xiao Yi was worried that with Xiao Nan's financial and material resources, it would not take long for a new type of treasure ship to appear.At that time, Xiao Nanruo sent hundreds of people to attack their island by boat.With only a hundred or so farmers on the island, he couldn't keep it.

Therefore, when Xiao Nan asked them for help, Xiao Yi specifically asked Xiao Nan for a promise - they would only help her this time, and after the matter was completed, neither party owed anything.

And Xiao Nan also agreed.

In fact, Xiao Nan's idea is also simple. Now Master Zhou is leading several disciples to study the treasure ship. Although she does not have a complete blueprint of the treasure ship, she still vaguely remembers some characteristics of the treasure ship. smoothly.

I believe it won't be long before she can have her own deep-sea fleet.

And there are so many deserted islands along the coast of Datang, she can occupy as many as she wants.

Therefore, Xiao Nan's obsession with Taicang Island and other small islands is not so strong.

It's okay to part ways with Xiao Yi and others. Sometimes Xiao Nan is worried that Xiao Yi will reveal his secrets.

However, she would not let Xiao Yi know these thoughts, it was better for her to keep some distance between them.

"No problem, that's it!"

Xiao Nan nodded, and secretly asked Qi Ling to send Xiao Yi and the others back to Taicang Island, and then she also stepped out of Taoyuan.

In the evening, Changshun and his friends came to the main hall to eat evening food. Before eating, Changshun and Ah Mu exchanged glances.

Ah Mo said: "Mother, the day after tomorrow will be Ah Weng's birthday, I have prepared a birthday gift, but I don't know if it is suitable—" She asked her aunt to help her with the details.

Xiao Nan was startled, and then remembered, yes, May 66th is Cui Ze's birthday, this year the old man happens to be 66 years old, although it is not a full birthday, but ancient times paid attention to "six smoothness", so [-] is also an extremely rare birthday.

In addition, Cui Ze has been keeping his filial piety for the past three years, and his birthday has not been well spent.

This year he returned to the meeting hall and became one of the five ministers, and his children and grandchildren are also very motivated. Cui Ze felt that he was protected by his ancestors, so he also wanted to make a big deal for this year's birthday.

The Cui Yanbo brothers strongly agreed with it.

In ancient times when the average life expectancy was 50 years old, Cui Ze is still so healthy and clear-headed at the age of 66. It is definitely a happy event. The brothers also hope to celebrate their father.

On Xiao Nan's side, although it was adopted, Cui Ze is Cui Youbo's biological father after all, and Cui Youbo is not in the capital, so he can't be filial in front of the old man. For this big birthday, Xiao Nan has to share Cui Youbo's filial piety. Do your best.

Therefore, since last month, Xiao Nan has ordered people to collect precious and novel objects, so that they can be given to Cui Ze as a birthday present.

Before Changsheng and Lingxi left Beijing with the academy, they also left their own prepared hands, and entrusted Xiao Nan to dedicate them to their grandfather together on the right day.

As for Ah Mu and Changshun's little ones, Xiao Nan didn't have any requirements, he just hoped that they could prepare a gift with all their heart, it doesn't need to be expensive, the key is 'care'.

Chang Shun also echoed: "Er, Er also prepared a portion." He didn't have enough confidence to speak, and it seemed that he wanted his aunt to help check it out.

Xiao Nan nodded with a smile, "Okay, show me the food after you've used it!" She was still willing to show kindness to the two well-behaved and dutiful children.

"Thank you mother!"

Ah Mu and Chang Shun stood up and thanked in unison.

……

The next morning, Xiao Nan received a letter of greeting, which was sent by Chai Jiuniang.

"Hehe, I haven't seen your wife for a long time, and I miss her very much. I just want to talk to her, and I don't want her to come first!"

Xiao Nan accepted the greeting post, smiled and joked with the person who sent the post, and told the woman indirectly, I am free today, and your wife is welcome to visit at any time.

The old woman thought that Chai Jiuniang was a capable person, seeing Xiao Nan's kind words, she smiled and said a few gossips, then she left.

At noon, Xiao Nan had just had lunch, and seeing the sunshine outside, her mood brightened, and the busy man took out the scented tea made in winter, ordered the kitchen to make some pastries, and prepared to enjoy a leisurely afternoon in the greenhouse Tea.

Yushui and others hurriedly carried the small red clay stove, dug out the red plum snow water buried under the shade of the flowers, washed the delicate copper pot, lit it, and put the small pot full of snow water on the red clay pot. on the stove.

Sunlight shone in through the glass window. Under the bright sunlight, Xiao Nan could clearly see the white mist slowly emerging from the spout of the small pot.

Here, the cook came in with freshly baked pastries, and placed delicate white porcelain dishes on the dining bed.

At this moment, someone outside reported, "Miss Liu is here!"

Xiao Nan laughed out loud, "She has such a long nose, she really answered that sentence, it's better to come early than coincidentally!"

After complaining, she raised her voice, "Please!"

As soon as the words were finished, a young woman in a plain dress strode over, and before she entered the room, her hearty laughter came: "What a Qiaomu, are you secretly talking bad about me again? !"

While speaking, the beautiful woman had already approached Xiao Nan, and she glared at her pretending to be angry.

Xiao Nan got up, took the beautiful woman's hand and asked her to take a seat, "Qiang Qiang, you are wrong, I did not say it secretly, but said it openly! However, you really came at the right time, look, I This 'Dark Fragrance Soup' has just been prepared, and the water is about to open, and you stepped in, what do you think is a coincidence?"

The beautiful woman, that is, Chai Jiuniang glanced at the cups and cups on the food bed, and she saw a few half-opened red plum buds in two exquisite white porcelain tea cups, she smiled and said: "It really is. I have long heard that your 'Dark Fragrance Soup' is a must, I have never had a chance to taste it before, but today I am here!"

The so-called "Dark Fragrance Soup" was a kind of scented tea that was popular in the aristocratic circle at that time.The specific method is also simple. In winter, pick off the half-opened red plums, mix with fried salt, and then find a clean porcelain bottle and seal it.

In summer, when eating, take out a few flowers and put them in a bowl with honey, and then soak them in boiling water.

While the two were joking, the water in the small pot had already boiled, and Yu Shui hurriedly put a towel on his hands, holding the handle of the small pot, and poured the boiling water into two white porcelain teacups.

The boiling water met the half-opened plum buds, and in an instant, the buds bloomed slowly, floating in the water with the rising water level, like red plum blossoms proudly blooming on the white snow.

And as the flowers bloom, there is still a hint of sweet red plum fragrance in the air...
