She reached out her hand and stroked the little lass’ head: “If you don’t have enough skills, even if you head outside, you will not survive. You’re still young, what you need to do is to study hard.
”Thank you elder sister, I understand,” The little lass was silent for a long time, she then lifted her head, looked at Ning Meng Yao and nodded her head solemnly, indicating she had understood.
To be honest, she really liked this young lady.
Seeing the young lady leaving, Ning Meng Yao was unaware that this child would become strongly related to her in the future.
Qiao Tian Chang stood by Ning Meng Yao’s side, his brows twitched: “You like this little lass very much?”
”Could it be that you don’t?”
”I do, but it’s a pity she’s not from our family. Why don’t we have a daughter once we return?” They already had two sons, Qiao Tian Chang was hoping they would have a gentle girl.
Ning Meng Yao rolled her eyes at Qiao Tian Chang, her cheeks were blushing, this rogue.
”Let’s go back,” Qiao Tian Chang had a smile in his eyes after seeing Ning Meng Yao directly walking off while ignoring him.
Don’t agree? Never mind, he would take the initiative when the time comes.
The next day, Ning Meng Yao directly went to find Xiao Ren, she instructed him to take care of the little lass she met at the riverbank, she did not say much about other things.
”I want to know, how many more of such cases are there?”
”Young miss, don’t worry, I will send people to investigate this matter. Today, I’ll bring you to meet some people,” Xiao Ren’s expression suddenly became stern, it was as if there was something really important.
Ning Meng Yao glanced at Xiao Ren and nodded her head: “Let’s go.”
The couple followed behind Xiao Ren and headed to the mountain behind the village.
They walked to the front of a mountainside, just when they thought it was a dead-end, Xiao Ren suddenly pressed on the mountain wall, a door was suddenly opened.
Ning Meng Yao opened her eyes widely, she suddenly realized there was a huge gap in her accomplishments compared to her two ancestors.
”Tian Chang, I’ve received a blow,” What have others done when they came? What did she do?
Other than the first few years she arrived, she had been idling away.
Qiao Tian Chang looked at Ning Meng Yao’s sad face in amusement, he couldn’t help but chuckle and say: “Enough, others are others, you are you, not to mention, you have something they don’t.”
”What?”
”A husband and sons,” Qiao Tian Chang said in a matter of fact manner.
Ning Meng Yao choked, but she had to admit to Qiao Tian Chang’s words. She indeed had what those two did not have.
She only mentioned it casually, she did not mean anything else.
Xiao Ren who was walking in front suddenly stopped his steps, his body was slightly trembling, he was obviously startled by their words.
”Young miss, this way please,” Xiao Ren spoke first to prevent them from saying words which would drive people mad.
Ning Meng Yao pulled Qiao Tian Chang’s hand as she observed the surroundings while walking around.
Earlier, Ning Meng Yao thought it was a secret chamber just like earlier, but she soon realized it was not.
This place was more like an underground palace, after walking deeper in, Ning Meng Yao heard sounds of shouting coming from inside.
”This place is......”
”Everyone here is master’s loyal subordinates. No, they should be the descendants,” Xiao Ren explained to Ning Meng Yao.
It turns out that the tribe outside was just a small portion, this place consisted of the majority.
Ning Meng Yao looked silently at Xiao Ren, there were no changes in her expression, but she was obviously feeling shocked in her heart.
What kind of person was the first Princess? How was she able to do such things?
Just when Ning Meng Yao was having wild thoughts, they arrived at the training grounds, seeing those people with serious and cold expressions, Ning Meng Yao had an unspeakable weird feeling.
”This is our new master,” Xiao Ren’s arrival caused the people to stop their training.
When they saw Ning Meng Yao, everyone’s gazes were focused on her, not only was Ning Meng Yao not intimidated, she calmly looked back at them.
Such a spirit caused Xiao Ren to silently nod his head, this should be the way their master should be.
