However, this time he saw the girl with his own eyes. On the surface, she seemed to be a peasant girl with mediocre qualifications.

There is no spiritual practice, no aura, and no excellence. Instead, he is just a child who misses his grandma.

At best, she is smarter than the average girl, and knows how to use this method to get what she wants.

Presumably, if Xue Zhen doesn't respond, this girl will use the same method to "impress" him in the future.

But in the next few days, Xue Zhen thought wrong and didn't even convey the message of a leaf.

Menghua City.

Meng Jiuer was digging the soil in the back garden of Baihua Pavilion. These dead leaves were flowers planted by the owner of the place many years ago.

After several years of drought, there is still a glimmer of life.

She might as well loosen the soil and use it to grow vegetables.

Zhao Kun held the Tang Dao and leaned against the arched door, watching Ah Jiu's boring operation.

Ah Jiu also felt that it was unnecessary for Tuoba Yan to shoot Zhao Kun to protect her: "Zhao Kun, you might as well help your general. There are Qi soldiers outside Menghua City now, and a war may start at any time."

Only then did Zhao Kun realize that he was finally noticed. He stood up straight and said, "The general asked me to guard this courtyard."

"There's nothing to defend here, and it's the backyard of Gao Mansion." Ah Jiu's work didn't stop.

Generally speaking, the term "high-walled courtyard" refers to the villas of officials and officials. The outer walls are much higher than the ordinary inner courtyard walls.

Moreover, many sharp weapons were arranged to protect the nursing home.

At first, it was for fear that the maids and servants of the house might escape, and later it was also to prevent burglars. Later, it was raised higher to prevent some concubines who could not get evenly from the rain and dew from having secret meetings with their lovers.

After all, the concubines of these rich and powerful families are no different from servants. Once they enter this courtyard, it is absolutely impossible to leave.

It is basically the eldest wife who shows up outside.

"No, Miss Jiu, I have to listen to the general." Zhao Kun said seriously.

"Then you go to the front line and see how the battle is going. I want to know." Ah Jiu had plenty of ways to get him away.

On this point, Tuoba Yan had explained that as long as Ajiu wanted something, Zhao Kun would have to run errands.

After hesitating for a moment, he turned around and left.

Ah Jiu was not afraid of getting dirty and sat on the loose soil. He took out his water bag and took a sip first, then watered the ground.

A gust of wind blew by, and Ah Jiu tugged on the woolen cloak around her neck. This was also found in the wardrobe of the original hostess of the house.

Ah Jiu suddenly smiled.

But she still planted the seeds slowly.

Soon, Zhao Kun came back: "Miss Jiu, Qi Bing has not mobilized troops, and the general has been observing."

Ah Jiu didn't even raise his head: "In this situation, it seems that King Qi Ming used the old method of King Nan Ming to trap all our forces in the city, so that most of them would starve to death without starting a war."

Zhao Kun had only one order, obeying Tuoba Yan's arrangements without thinking about the situation.

If Tuoba Yan asked him to lead people to kill, he would do it, and there was no need to think about anything else.

"What should we do?" Zhao Kun knew that General Tuoba, like him, had a very shallow concept of survival. After all, what they needed was energy, not things like eating and drinking water to maintain life force like humans. Naturally

I couldn't have imagined this plan.

Ah Jiu said nothing, turned around and entered the attic, and soon she came out:

"Zhao Kun, please take someone to transport the food in my room and give it to the soldiers."

Ah Jiu's words were neither high nor low, and he came out and squatted in the place where he had been planting vegetables.

Zhao Kun didn't know why. When he entered the house and took a look, he was immediately stunned.

There are mountains of fruits and vegetables, red and green, and a lot of grain. There are so many things that he has never seen before.

Although they need energy, there are thousands of people in the army who need food.

He turned around and looked at the nine girls squatting in the courtyard through the vermilion porch, and for an instant, an indescribable feeling spread throughout the process.

"Okay Miss Ninth." Zhao Kun hurried back and went out to find someone. At least ten freight carriages would have to be sent to get the food and grass.

After Zhao Kun led people to carry it back and forth for three hours, the sky turned completely dark.

Ah Jiu also collected the harvest and loaded it into the system grid.

Turn around and go back to the house, take out a water bag, pour it into a wooden basin, wash yourself, and then go to the kitchen to cook something to eat.

But today, Ah Jiu was not in a hurry to cook. She wiped her hands and said:

"Don't hide anymore. I've seen my grandma's ability to reach hundreds of feet in one step. Fortunately, I have good eyesight and can see at night."

As soon as these words came out, the veil of Ah Jiu's cabinet moved.

Xue Zhen suddenly appeared behind him. Looking at the back, his eyes lost their usual calmness and became full of shock.

Who is she?
