Perceiving Mu Ling's irritation, Qin Yao took the initiative and asked: "Why did the general see me?"
Mu Ling turned away and took a deep breath to prevent herself from losing her mind due to her counter-routine. She calmed down a little and knew that the woman in front of her was not so easy to handle, so she directly extended an invitation to her:
"You must be unwilling to let your divine power be wasted in this rural village, right? Are you interested in working for Her Royal Highness the Princess?"
Qin Yao's breathing was obviously short. It would be false to say that she was not excited. The opportunity to reach the sky suddenly appeared in front of her, which was indeed very attractive.
But after the secret joy in her heart passed, Qin Yao calmed down again and curiously asked:
“I am a rough person, I don't like to eat big cakes, I only believe in things that I can see and touch, so I would like to ask, what kind of status does the general intend to arrange for me to serve His Highness?”
Mu Ling raised her lips and smiled confidently, and said: "Logically, newcomers must undergo two years of trials before they can join His Highness's Guards. But I can make an exception for you. As long as you come, you will be a member of the Guards and enjoy the title of seventh-grade sergeant." treatment.”
"His Highness has always been generous to his subordinates. As long as you work hard, it will not be difficult to be promoted to the sixth rank within three years."
Mu Ling felt that with such generous conditions in front of him, a commoner would be so happy that he didn't know what to do.
"I'm sorry, General." Qin Yao bowed down again, then stood up and said with a smile: "The conditions you offered are not enough for me to be willing to sacrifice my life for my loyalty."
As the general said, these female soldiers who can join the Guards have gone through two years of training in the military camp, and then passed through layers of selection before they can come to the eldest princess.
She glanced up and down at the cotton jacket and skirt she was wearing. There were no patterns at all, and she didn't even wear a silver hairpin on her head. She was so poor.
She just wants to live a peaceful life now, planting seeds in spring, harvesting fruits in autumn, sitting leisurely and watching the clouds roll and relax, feeling fulfilled and contented.
Goosebumps crawled up Mu Ling's back. She clenched her fists vigorously to prevent her body from shaking uncontrollably, and took one step back.
Qin Yao raised her eyebrows in surprise. She really didn't expect Mu Ling to say such a thing.
Qin Yao shook her head, "No, I have the strength to choose the life I want."
but not now.
What an honor is this? There are still people who dislike it!
Mu Ling was stunned for a moment, looking at the back of the man who left gracefully, he felt unwilling to do so. He took two quick steps to catch up and stopped the man.
Mu Ling didn't know that Qin Yao was thinking about these things. He only saw Qin Yao looking at him without saying a word, as if she hated iron.
The female soldiers looked at her in shock, unable to believe how anyone could be willing to give up such an opportunity.
After saying that, he turned around and left.
“Qin Yao!”
Mu Ling felt the pressure on her body suddenly disappear, her shoulders slumped slightly, and she let out a long breath, which almost suffocated her to death!
"Are you willing?" Mu Ling didn't wait for her to answer, and immediately answered with determination: "I don't believe it!"
Hearing her saying that she wanted to leave it to her children as a family heirloom, the corner of her mouth twitched hard, and she felt a twinge of regret in her heart.
Qin Yao shrugged, she will not be kidnapped by any morals, she is only loyal to her own heart.
Qin Yao reached out and took it, looking through it a few times. She found a white square jade pendant with a wooden character engraved on it. Other than that, there were no other patterns on it. It was simple.
She raised her hand and pointed at the handsome man in the corner in front of her, who was so frightened by the sight of her that he shrank his neck, "Are you planning to follow such a useless man all your life, have children for him, and be trapped in that one glance? Can you see between the pots and stoves?”
“That is to say, I am actually just a servant who earns a monthly salary from the princess's mansion, and I have to risk my life for Your Highness all the time.”
Mu Ling glanced at her bitterly and reminded her again: "Do you know how many women can't even ask for such an opportunity?"
If you don't go, you won't go. If Mu Ling puts the sword to her neck, the result will be that she dies, but she lives!
You must know that until now, she has heard all kinds of persuasive words from good wives and loving mothers. If she hadn't been capable, I'm afraid the clansmen in Liujia Village would have criticized her as a 'evil woman who refuses to obey her husband'. Clicked.
Qin Yao looked at Mu Ling's undulating chest with a sincere smile on her face, "I think the general may have misunderstood something. Thank you for your kindness. Please leave this opportunity to the next woman. She will be better than me." We need it even more." Qin Yao shook her fist at Mu Ling and the five female soldiers, "You have to work hard and fight for a place for women in this world."
Since she knew, why did she refuse to join them?
"Are you serious that you won't come?" Mu Ling didn't give up and asked again.
Qin Yao stopped and turned around, looking at her with a smile.
There are thousands of women in this world, and she is one of them.
But Qin Yao had already put the jade pendant in her arms and patted the clothes with her palms to compact them, thus eliminating the possibility of her asking for it back.
Of course, I don't dare to say too much. “If one day I get tired of my current life and think of the days when I was vigorous and happy, I might come to you.”
“Don't worry, I won't sell it. It's also good to keep it as a family heirloom for the children.” Qin Yao joked.
Dangerous murderous intent came out of Qin Yao's black eyes without concealment, and went straight into Mu Ling's eyes, and a powerful aura completely enveloped her.
Before Qin Yao turned around and left, Mu Ling suddenly asked, "Do you have money to go to the capital?"
She looked at her quietly, and in a trance, she seemed to see the era in which she lived. Those young girls were studying hard in the university study room, waiting for their studies to be completed, and then resolutely devoted themselves to all walks of life with the ambition of building the motherland. Go and shine!
Qin Yao felt calm and extended her palm directly, "General, please help me with some travel expenses."
However, Qin Yao laughed and said unexpectedly: "I didn't expect that I could be worthy of a seventh-grade sergeant, but after all, it was just the same treatment as a seventh-grade sergeant, not a real seventh-grade sergeant."
But he was really unwilling to do so. He gritted his teeth and took off the jade pendant he had been wearing for ten years and handed it over. "If you regret it, you can come to the princess's house to find me at any time."
He looked at Qin Yao expectantly, waiting for her to say "I am willing to serve your Highness".
She wished she could lay down her head and pour all her thoughts into her mind, and wash away all the thoughts of "good wife and mother" and "bearing children for her husband" in her mind.
"You are so!" Mu Ling held her forehead, and she didn't know what to say for a moment.
If it weren't for the strange slap on the hand to a woman who had just met twice and was actually a stranger, Mu Ling would have given her a loud slap in the back at this moment.
You deserve it if you are still refusing to join the Guards after being in this state!
Qin Yao: “You scolded me?”
Mu Ling was so shocked that she didn't even speak!
"Forget it, goodbye." Qin Yao cupped her fists, raised her fingers at the man in the corner, and left leisurely, looking in a good mood.
