Chapter 132: It’s a Waste to Eat Too Much

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

Of course, they didn’t believe it, but the guards had already guarded every entrance. The people in front were sure that Su Ying had escaped through the entrance.

However, she was alone when she ran away and did not bring anything with her.

The warehouse guards at night said that they didn’t hear any major commotion, but so much grain disappeared into thin air out of the blue. No matter how they looked at it, it was like they had encountered a ghost!

“Leader, is there a spy in the camp who is in cahoots with that woman, Su Ying, to deal with us?”

Wu Feng’s thick eyebrows were knitted so tightly that they formed a Roman numeral III. It was almost the end of December. Without the grain, they would not be able to live with peace of mind.

“That’s the most likely possibility.” Otherwise, he really couldn’t figure out how Su Ying had managed to make the grain disappear all by herself.

“Go and search every inch of the Azure Dragon Base. You must find the hidden grain!”

…..

“Yes, Sir.”

“Leader, that woman hurt so many of our people and even tricked us. I can’t take this lying down.”

“That’s right. We, the Azure Dragon Base, have been around for so many year. Since when have we ever been toyed with like this? And the other party is a woman, no less!” The last point was what they simply couldn’t accept.

Wu Feng’s eyes darkened. “What can you do if you can’t take this lying down? Can you defeat her?”

“I wonder where that woman got those strange things? If not for those strange things, how could we not defeat her?”

Wu Feng gave a snort and did not comment.

When he fought with Su Ying, he clearly realized Su Ying’s strength. Even if she didn’t have all those funny tricks up her sleeve, they still wouldn’t be her match.

If such a powerful woman didn’t work for them, she would be a great threat to them. So, Su Ying had to die!

“I’ll go gather some men and kill our way into the Tiger Base.” The sixth commander turned around and left.

“Stop!” Wu Feng hollered icily.

“Leader, don’t you want to take revenge?”

Wu Feng’s slender eyes were filled with intense hatred. “I want to tear that woman to pieces even in my dreams. But if we bring so many people with us, even if we managed to kill that woman, both sides would have suffered heavy losses. The gains do not make up for the losses. It’s already late autumn and winter is approaching. You all know what it’s like at this time of the year. If we don’t conserve our strength, we’ll be eaten by those monsters until not even our bones are left.”

Upon hearing this, the people in the room clenched their fists in hatred.

“Leader, do you have any ideas?”

Wu Feng let out a deep breath. “If we want that woman’s life, we can only use our wits to defeat her. All of you, suppress your hatred first. The most important thing now is to find the grain. Without the grain, even if we kill that woman to vent our anger, we will not end up well. Those people are harder to deal with than that woman.”

When the few commanders thought of those people, their expressions changed slightly, and they didn’t dare to say anything else.

“Leader, I think we should be prepared for both eventualities, just in case. While we’re looking for food, we should also get people to buy spare food. Even if we can’t find it, we’ll still have enough food to make up for it.”

Wu Feng nodded. “That’s right. Get someone to do this immediately. You must act quickly.”

“Yes, Sir.”

Su Ying woke up just as the sky turned bright.

She got up and went to the roof to circulate her energy. Everyone also woke up one after another.

Uncle Hea, Bai Shuang, and Lin Zhuyu were in charge of the kitchen now. Zhang Cuiniang and Aunt Zhao were mainly taking care of the three children and would help out when they had free time.

Wanniang wanted to help but because she had to take care of her young child, she wasn’t able to contribute much.

However, she was good at sewing. When the child was sleeping, she would rush to make winter clothes for everyone.

“Uncle Hea, what good stuff did you cook this morning?” Su Ying came down from the roof and followed the aroma to the kitchen.

As Uncle Hea stir-fried the marinated beef in the pot, he took time out to answer, “Is beef with coarse grain filling enough?”

“It’s filling.”

“Give Number One and the rest a little less.”

“Mistress, aren’t you afraid that if they don’t have enough to eat, they won’t have the strength to work?” Uncle Hea asked curiously.

The corner of Su Ying’s lips curled up. “It’s a waste for them to eat too much. Just give them less.”

“Alright.”

After breakfast, Su Ying played with the two little ones in the courtyard for a while before she went to the other yard.

When Number One and the others saw Su Ying, they quickly gathered.

“Mistress.”

Su Ying placed her hands behind her back and looked at them. “I’ll give you 15 minutes to form five rows from the shortest to the tallest. Now.”

Number One immediately sprang into action after hearing her command. Everyone began comparing his own height with one another.

“You’re shorter than me, so hurry up and go to the front.”

“Rascal, you are so tall. Why are you standing in front? Go to the back now.”

In less than 15 minutes, everyone was in line.

Su Ying walked one round in their midst and made some of them switch positions before going back to stand in front of them.

“Remember who is on your front, back, left, right. From now on, you will stand in line like this every day.”

“Yes, Ma’am.”

“Today is the first day of your training, so I’ll give you something light. Follow me out of the courtyard.”

“Yes, Ma’am.”

Number One and the rest followed Su Ying to the outside of the courtyard.

Su Ying pointed at a tree visible to the naked eye in front of them and said, “Do you see that tree? Run from here to there, then back again. Do ten laps back and forth. Whoever runs the fastest will not need to train tomorrow.”

“Mistress, what do you mean by no need to train?”

“He doesn’t have to do anything. Just lie around and wait to eat.”

Lying around and waiting for food without having to do anything? Then what were they waiting for?

Su Ying took a branch and drew a line on the ground. “Everyone, stand behind this line. We’ll start on the count of three.”

“Yes!”

“One, two, three!”

As soon as Su Ying finished speaking, those people dashed out like coiled springs bouncing out.

Su Ying stood at the starting point with her arms crossed. She remembered clearly how many laps each person had run, and no one could slack off under her watch.

Number One and the others were still full of energy at the start, but after a few laps, they couldn’t quite keep up and their speed slowed down.

“Didn’t you eat this morning? Hurry up! The one who comes last will have to run another ten laps.”

If they ran another ten laps, they would die!

Even if they couldn’t run anymore, they all sped up madly.

After ten laps, they felt like they were almost crippled!

“Don’t stop immediately after you’re done running. Walk forward slowly. Did you hear me? Move.”

Number One and the others felt like they were about to die from exhaustion, but they didn’t dare to disobey Su Ying. They gritted their teeth and walked forward slowly. However, they soon realized that they weren’t panting as much as before after walking for a while.

“Urgh!”

Before they could recover their breath, someone couldn’t stand it and vomited out everything he ate in the morning..
