Chapter 221: Preparing to Build the Second Tulou

Ji Nü already knew he wanted to ask Nan Qinghuan, so she lifted her head and met his gaze, "You still can't get that Nan Qinghuan out of your heart, can you?"

Poor her, she has liked him for so many years; why does he still only think of that female in the end, why? why? She is indignant—when it comes to looks and figure, her waist is thick and her hips are big, easy to raise children, but what does Nan Qinghuan have, delicate skin and white flesh, all cute, and she still hasn't given Ying a child.

Useless female!

This Rongdi said nothing but only fanned her fury; she pressed him aggressively, feeling aggrieved, "You admitted it, you don't dare say it now. What's so good about her? She's the female Ying wants. She'll just farm and win your favor. I can do that too, I can also cook for you; although I'm not good at it, I can learn. I can also help the tribe with work. I can even bear your children, but why did you give me to the lone wolf, I…"

"Shut up."

Rongdi squinted slightly, a cold edge flashing in his eyes; suddenly he strode forward, bowed slightly and seized Ji Nü's neck, gripping it hard, his face twisted grotesquely, "Don't think that because you slept with me you can be so brazen. To me you're just a pastime female, there are plenty of females who want to climb onto my bed, I don't need you."

After saying that, Rongdi tossed Ji Nü aside; she hit the ground so hard she nearly died from the pain, and hearing his words she was completely disheartened.

Completely!

"So, I'm just a pastime?"

Look at you, how hurtful you are? Rongdi's face turned ashen as he straightened up, "You need to know your status, Ji Nü. I'm not obsessed with you. If you obediently marry the lone wolf I'll spare your life; otherwise…"

"Otherwise what? You'd kill me?"

Rongdi let out a cold, frightening laugh; his smile was sinister, his grotesque face terrifying, yet Ji Nü this time was not afraid of death.

The person she loves is Rongdi; Rongdi wants her to marry the lone wolf, but she refuses, she doesn't want to!

Rongdi's voice was cold, "You dare steal my pet and go to the Ying Tribe, then you don't even fear death. Since that's the case, I'll demote you to a slave and send you to Dog Rong; I think he will like a female like you."

These words made Ji Nü keep shaking her head; Dog Rong is so terrifying, he'll eat her!

"No, I don't want to be a slave, I was wrong, I was wrong, please, I will marry the lone wolf, I will marry the lone wolf."

Unfortunately, it's too late.

Rongdi sneered, "Now it's too late to repent. The lone wolf is such an outstanding male; there are plenty of females who like him. What do you think you are? You lack the ability to refuse. Bring them, send Ji Nü to the Slave Camp."

When those words were spoken, two tall, horse‑strong tribe members came to drag Ji Nü away; seeing this, Ji Nü kept pleading, "Don't, chief, I was wrong, I'll tell you what Nan Qinghuan is doing, I'll tell you."

Originally Rongdi didn't want to deal with her, but hearing that, he showed a hint of interest and waved his hand slightly; the two tribe members stopped immediately.

"Chief"

He strode up to Ji Nü, and seeing her face he was annoyed, "What is she doing?"

Sure enough, because that female she could still escape; it's just a name, yet Rongdi cares so much about it.

At this moment, she truly felt the irony.

"She's crazy"

"What did you say?"

"It's true. When I saw him, she was with kudzu root and the female called Axi; they came back overnight with a lot of useless grass, treating it like a treasure. What else is this but madness?"

Hearing this, Rongdi's brows tightened. Grass? How could Nan Qinghuan be carrying grass? Moreover, she said Nan Qinghuan was with kudzu root—was that kudzu root loyal to the Wolf Girl? "You say she's with kudzu root?"

"Yes, Nan Qinghuan has a Wolf Token; they went together to dig grass."

At this point, Rongdi muttered darkly, the number of supporters around Nan Qinghuan was growing, and that was not a good thing.

"Grass?"

His intuition told him that grass had another use.

"What kind of grass is that?"

Ji Nü naturally didn't know what kind of grass it was; she just thought Nan Qinghuan was stupid, treating that grass like a treasure.

"I don't know."

Rongdi gave her a glance, "You fool, if it's a treasure you still don't recognize it, get out."

"Chief"

From not far away came the High Priest's voice; Duoluo hurried over, "Chief, the old chief suddenly complained of stomach pain, he can't go on."

"What, father?"

Morning light was just breaking, and golden rays illuminated the Tulou on the horizon.

That day, Ying and Nan Qinghuan sent Yao and A Qi to the tribe's gate, and Ying also sent Ji Lei and a dozen tribe members to join the Wolf Tribe in rebuilding their home and constructing a Tulou.

They had already agreed: Youchao Xuan would stay here first to build the Tulou for Ashu and his group, while Yao would go back to start reconstruction; once that's done, Ashu's Tulou would also be completed, and then they'd go help Yao finish building, so both tribes would have Tulous.

Everyone could live in the houses they wanted.

Two birds with one stone.

At the tribe's gate, after seeing Yao and the others depart, Nan Qinghuan rested her head on Ying's shoulder, and did another great thing; she felt very satisfied.

"Ying, I'm going to lead people to plant rice in a bit."

They had held a meeting all night; Ying knew what she wanted to do, but he felt tender, gently cupping her small face, "Qinghuan, you go back and rest; leave the rice‑planting to me, I'll handle it."

Although he thought it absurd, he would support everything Qinghuan did; facts proved she was right—without her perseverance there would be no Ying Tribe as it is now.

His tribe now had clothes to wear and food to eat, ending their open‑air life; this was a great thing for him and also the future hope of the Ying Tribe.

Nan Qinghuan rolled her eyes, "Your people don't know how to farm, and you don't either. Don't worry, I'm not tired. Thinking of eating fragrant, steaming rice, I feel energized all over; do you know that feeling?"

She hadn't eaten rice in a long time and missed it, so she decided to start planting a season of rice; the weather was scorching, perfect for rice planting.

Ying was a bit worried, reaching out to gently stroke her flat belly and rub his nose, "But with all this hard work, when will you be able to bear a child?"

"Child…"

She also touched her belly, a bit helpless; indeed, her period hadn't come yet, counting the days it was just these few days, no sign, but perhaps there might be good news.

"Don't rush; this kind of thing can't be hurried."

Ying didn't think so; he was very anxious.

He whispered softly in her ear, "Tonight we'll try harder again; I don't believe I can't bear my Bone Blood."

Nan Qinghuan: "…"

Nan Qinghuan was about to say something when, not far away, Dashan arrived hurriedly with people.

"Ying, good news!"

Hearing this, the husband and wife looked toward the hurriedly arriving Dashan; Nan Qinghuan seemed to rarely hear good news, and this Dashan always comes shouting that it's bad.

She is already immune.

This time, hearing there's good news, she is quite looking forward to it.

"Dashan, did you catch the Ji Nü?"

That girl came last night to challenge her to a duel; she must have been very foolish, and she didn't expect the Tribe also had a custom of dueling to vie for men.

How interesting.

When he heard her mention the Ji Nü, Dashan hurriedly shook his head, "No, Tian Long ran away fast, couldn't catch up."

Ying gave him a glare, somewhat enraged, "Useless thing, the people all ran away—what good news is that?"

Nan Qinghuan saw Dashan grinning, could it be... "Dashan, stop being cryptic, quickly tell me, what's the good news?"
