She Rebuilt Her Fallen Country With Storage Space-Chapter 135 - : Enjoy the Blessings Alone, Let Others Suffer the Troubles
Chapter 135 -135: Enjoy the Blessings Alone, Let Others Suffer the Troubles
Tao Xue pinched her nose: “It stinks, is this sheepfold really abandoned? It looks like it was just used.”
Xiang Ying picked up a twig and poked open a sheep dung pellet.
She, a beauty, did such a thing without changing her expression.
It made Lu Feiyi slightly raise his eyebrows.
Xiang Ying nodded and confirmed: “That’s right, it definitely is abandoned. These pellets are almost dried up, at least close to a month old.”
She scanned the terrain, the slope to the north was at the wind’s path, with the wind blowing downwards.
Xiang Ying immediately rolled up her sleeves, pulled the tarp off her horse-drawn cart, and took out the shovels she had prepared from her space earlier.
There were twenty in total, and she had Lu Feiyi assign twenty water bandits to shovel up all the sheep dung pellets and pile them in the middle of the slope.
“Boss, what exactly do you want to do?”
“Don’t ask, just do as I say.”
Lu Feiyi nodded, no more idle talk, and took a shovel himself to start working with his brothers.
The women offered their help enthusiastically, asking Xiang Ying if there was anything they could assist with.
Xiang Ying pointed to an open space not far away: “You go there, set up our tents.”
“Rongrong, go help me take stock, who has diarrhea and who is vomiting. Set up two camps, divided into mild and severe cases.”
The Seventh Princess quickly understood.
“I understand, separate those with milder symptoms from those with more severe symptoms.”
“The remaining men, help dismantle the sheepfold’s fence; keep the wood for fire.”
Soon, everyone was on the move, except for a few old, weak, sick, and disabled, whose bodies were inconvenient, everyone began to transform their home under Xiang Ying’s direction.
Xiang Ying herself was driving the horse cart, saying: “I’ll go get water from the nearby pond.”
Xiang Li heard this: “Ayin! Isn’t that water undrinkable?”
Xiang Ying turned back with a smile: “Don’t worry, the water I bring can be drunk.”
She pretended to be drawing water at the pond, but actually, she was secretly filling up with tap water from her space.
After she brought it back, everyone was curious as the water was too clear, hardly resembling pond water.
Xiang Ying casually explained: “I know how to filter it, drink with confidence, it’s fine.”
While everyone was busy, Xiang Ying saw a bamboo grove nearby and immediately went over with a sickle.
She cut the thick green bamboos one by one and skillfully trimmed off the branches and twigs, digging out the insides with a sharp knife and hammer.
Xiang Xiuxiu ran over to help pull out bamboo sticks.
The little one’s two hands could pull out three bamboo sticks at once.
Xiang Ying couldn’t help but give her a thumbs-up.
“My girl is amazing!”
Xiang Xiuxiu shyly blushed: “People… people don’t have much strength, mother don’t get the wrong idea.”
Xiang Ying asked smilingly: “Then after helping out, does Xiu Xiu want to eat the steamed buns with meat made by mom?”
“Yes!” Hearing there would be meat, the little one quickened her bamboo-pulling.
Xiang Yuanshuo and Xiang Yuanlang looked around and, finding them here, quickly came over to help.
After a while, Qi Fengyi and Qi gathered Xiang Li joined them.
Xiang Ying made a total of about seventy bamboo cups, having the little ones help carry them back.
Everyone was busy for an hour, not until the latter part of the night did they finally finish.
Everyone was very tired and came to Xiang Ying for clean water.
When they discovered the bamboo cups, they were amazed.
Third Miss Chu held the cup and observed, joyfully saying: “The elder princess is really skillful with her hands.”
Xiang Ying scooped some clear water for her: “It’s with the help of my three kids, my brother and Qi Fengyi that we could make them so well.”
“There are only over seventy cups, so some families can share one, but if someone has diarrhea, they can’t lend their cup to anyone else.”
“Everyone, figure out a way to carve your name on the cup with a stone, so there will be no confusion.”
Over a hundred people crowded around Xiang Ying and earnestly said “okay”.
At this moment, Xiang Ying felt a sense of being able to mobilize everyone at her command.
Not only did she boil clean water, she also took the hard buns given by the Military Supervisors during the day, soaked them in water, and then skewered and roasted them on bamboo sticks.
Until the outside was crispy and the inside was soft, Xiang Ying had Tao Xue prepare a pot of stir-fried garlic sprouts with cured pork.
The garlic sprouts were from the garlic roots that Tao Xue saved last time when Xiang Ying didn’t want them.
She didn’t expect they would come in handy now.
The vibrant green garlic sprouts paired with the thin-as-cicada-wing cured pork burst into fragrance in the pot.
The prisoners lined up to get their buns. Xiang Xiuxiu, standing to the side, turned her back to everyone and sneakily ate five of them.
Fearing that she hadn’t had enough to eat, Xiang Ying quietly slipped another four red fruits to her daughter from behind.
Not only did everyone have their fill and drank clean water, their stomachs felt much more comfortable.
Seeing that dawn was approaching, Xiang Ying urged them to return to their respective tents to sleep.
The three little ones were sleepy and rubbing their eyes. Xiang Ying asked Tao Xue and Qi Fengyi to take the children back first.
She then went to the tent where the sick were resting.
Lu Feiyi came over and said to her, “It’s really amazing. They were complaining about stomach pain before, but after their last bout of diarrhea, none of them mentioned pain again.”
“The most seriously ill person could even sit up and talk. He said he was hungry just now, so I gave him half a bun.”
Xiang Ying nodded: “Tell them that they can only drink the water I provide in the tents. They must not drink the water everyone else is queuing for outside.”
“Don’t worry, boss, I’ve already instructed them.” Lu Feiyi glanced at the firelight reflecting on Xiang Ying’s fair face, unable to help himself from advising, “It’s late, you should go rest.”
Xiang Ying lifted the curtain and left, with Lu Feiyi following behind her, ready to escort her back to her tent.
Suddenly, he asked, “Actually, I’m very curious. Those people below have been bullying you, boss, don’t you get angry?”
“Angry, of course,” Xiang Ying replied without thinking, then slightly tilted her eyes to reveal a sly, fox-like chortle at him, “but there’s no need for me to show it.”
Lu Feiyi smiled, just as he was about to speak.
Xiang Ying suddenly raised her hand to silence him.
“Don’t talk, listen.”
Lu Feiyi listened carefully to the surrounding sounds.
From each tent, the soft sound of snoring had begun to emerge.
“What’s the matter? I didn’t hear anything.”
Xiang Ying’s red lips held back a light chuckle: “It’s the sound of the wind. The north wind has picked up. Come on, let’s do something big! Let’s first let off some steam.”
She stepped ahead, and Lu Feiyi hastily followed her.
Xiang Ying walked to the outside of the sheep pen.
Previously, as per her orders, the water bandits had shoveled all the sheep dung out and piled it in the middle of the hillside.

Xiang Ying squinted, estimating the distance.
Good, it was directly facing where Supervisor Ke and his men were encamped.
Xiang Ying took out a flint and struck it, igniting a branch with a spark.
The flame danced in her dark Phoenix Eyes, her hair flying, revealing the strength of the wind.
Lu Feiyi was startled: “You’re going to burn sheep dung?”
Xiang Ying clicked her tongue: “How uncouth you sound. I’m offering them ‘aromatherapy’.”
As soon as she finished speaking, she threw the burning stick into the pile of sheep dung.
The chemical reaction accelerated the burning, and whoosh, it caught fire all at once.
The unpleasant smell just started to rise when the north wind blew it down the hillside.
Soon, from the far-off base of the hill, came cursing from the patrolling soldiers.
“What’s that stench! Ugh…”
“Help! The dung pit has exploded!”
“Who is secretly defecating in the tents!”
Upon hearing this, Xiang Ying erupted into hearty laughter.
She patted Lu Feiyi on the shoulder: “I am someone who prefers to enjoy the good alone and let others suffer the miseries. Now, I can go to sleep happily. You should rest too.”
With a joyful gait, Xiang Ying returned to her own tent.
Lu Feiyi watched her back for a long time, letting out an amused laugh.
“She’s still the same as before.”
