After Liang Xiuyuan finished speaking, she suddenly looked surprised and quickly covered her mouth.

"Look, after all this, I don't know whether to call you Miss Tao or Miss Shu. I'm really sorry!"

Liang Xiuyuan looked apologetic.

After saying this, he looked around, as if he was afraid that others would hear him.

However, she spoke quite loudly just now, and many people working nearby had heard it and looked over with curiosity.

Shu Xin looked at Liang Xiuyuan's pretentious appearance and chuckled.

She suddenly realized that this Liang Xiuyuan was probably reborn, and should not have traveled through time.

Otherwise, she wouldn't act like a daughter of an official family.

If it were someone like her who traveled through time, it would be simple. She wouldn't bother with the green tea tricks and would just confront people directly.

"My last name is Tao, and my given name is Shuxin. Miss Liang San, didn't your parents teach you to distinguish between other people's last names and given names?"

As soon as Shu Xin said this, Liang Xiuyuan stood there in a daze.

How dare Tao Shuxin?

She actually directly implied that she had no upbringing!

She originally said this to bring up Tao Shuxin's previous identity as the eldest daughter of the Yongyi Marquis's Mansion, and to take the opportunity to mock her for ending up in such a situation and being no longer a noble lady.

Who knew she would take the opportunity to confuse her last name.

Liang Xiuyuan's face flushed and she hurried to explain.

"Ms. Tao, you misunderstood. That's not what I meant. I..."

Shu Xin didn't care what she thought, she waved at Liang Xiuyuan.

"Miss Liang, please don't stay here if you have nothing to do. We still have work to do."

"Even if your dream is accurate, we are just trying our best to make more preparations and try to reduce casualties. After all, human life is the most important, isn't it?"

Shuxin had a calm expression on her face and spoke slowly.

Liang Xiuyuan's face turned pale instantly.

Shu Xin's words were really heartbreaking. Not only were they blunt, but they also directly pointed out the coldness and disregard for human life in what she had just said.

With this comparison, what Shuxin and these people are doing now is full of meaning.

On the other hand, she was at a disadvantage.

It was not right for her to stand here, nor was it right for her to just leave. She felt extremely embarrassed.

She stared at Shuxin, gritting her teeth, and hated Shuxin completely.

She even thought that once she successfully married Xiao Beiwang, she would become the queen in the future.

When the time comes, she will definitely make Tao Shuxin pay.

She stamped her feet and took a long time to squeeze out a few words from between her teeth.

"Miss Tao is really...very sharp-tongued!"

"Then I won't bother you anymore, just keep busy!"

She looked at Shuxin with disdain, slightly raised her head, and her eyes were arrogant.

Shu Xin knew that this person wanted to mock her for her sweet talk and also to mock her for her life of hard work.

Shuxin suddenly found it funny.

This kind of indirect and sarcastic behavior is really like that of a young lady from a Beijing official family.

Shu Xin looked very happy and thanked Liang Xiuyuan with a smile.

"Thank you for your praise, Miss Liang. Please come in, Miss Liang..."

She seemed really grateful to Liang Xiuyuan for praising her.

Liang Xiuyuan was so angry that she snorted coldly, turned around and ran away.

As soon as Liang Xiuyuan left, Tao Miaomiao came over.

"Big sister, do all the noble ladies in the capital behave like this?"

He speaks in a roundabout way and in a very ambiguous way.

He is also pretentious and looks down on others.

She thought of Tao Jiaojiao.

"My sister Jiaojiao would never be like this!"

Tao Miaomiao regretted what she said, and she hurried to see Shuxin.

But Shu Xin just smiled and said nothing, then turned around and went back to work.

Tao Miaomiao wanted to call her, but felt embarrassed and immediately felt very regretful.

In fact, Shu Xin did not mean to embarrass Tao Miaomiao. It's just that although Tao Miaomiao's opinion of her changed because of these things, she still often compared her with Tao Jiaojiao in her heart.

Shu Xin just wanted her to know that she was her and Tao Jiaojiao was Tao Jiaojiao.

Since she has come to the Tao family and become the eldest daughter of the Tao family, and she has done so much for the Tao family, she deserves recognition.

She didn't want her hard work to go to waste.

That’s right, Shuxin is such a person.

Doing good deeds without leaving a name, showing favors without expecting anything in return, none of these things work for Shuxin.

Tao Miaomiao thought for a long time and realized her mistake.

Later, she found an opportunity to apologize to Shuxin but didn't mention it.

At this time, Tao Jiaojiao, who was far away in Beijing, suddenly woke up from her sleep.

She was still frightened and felt a strong sense of uneasiness for no reason.

This feeling of losing control made her feel uneasy.

She simply stood up and called over Nanny Hua, the manager of her courtyard. She gave her some instructions and Nanny Hua did as she was told.

Xiao Beiwang took Zhao Qing with him, and the two of them hurried along relying only on their own feet.

But after a quarter of an hour, they found the col that Shu Xin mentioned.

The two men hid their figures in the cover of night and looked into the valley.

But the person playing the flute was just a teenager, and behind him stood a dozen martial artists.

Xiao Beiwang frowned and thought, it was obvious that these people were not ordinary martial artists.

From their breathing and body movements, it can be seen that these people are well-trained.

Most likely it came from the military.

Zhao Qing also noticed this, but now was not the time to speak.

Xiao Beiwang pondered for a moment, and combined with his experience tonight, he suddenly understood.

The other party's target is most likely him.

And the man behind the scenes...

At this moment, in the valley, the young man playing the flute suddenly stopped what he was doing.

"Sir, five wolves have died. We..."

He looked no more than twelve or thirteen years old, his clothes were ragged and dirty, but his eyes were extremely bright.

It also sparkled brightly under the dim torchlight.

However, as soon as he finished speaking, a knife was put to his neck.

"Shut up and keep blowing!"

The tall, black-clad, masked man behind him threatened in a cold voice.

The big knife in his hand was emitting a cold light, as if any movement would take the young man's life.

However, the young man looked fearless and had a stubborn look in his eyes.

"Kill me, I don't want to blow anymore!"

Those wolves grew up with him, just like his companions. He couldn't bear to see his companions die because of him.

"Humph, it's easy to kill you, but don't forget that your sister's life is still in our hands."

The young man's eyes dimmed instantly when he heard this.

He gritted his teeth, took a deep breath, and picked up the black flute in his hand again.

This time, he changed the tune.

Over at the fire circle, this time the wolves did not rush in one by one, but two or three at the same time.

Compared to the wolves at the beginning, these wolves were obviously larger and had better accuracy.

Two of them even landed safely in the camp, with only their fur slightly burned by the fire.

As soon as the two wolves landed on the ground, they rolled over and the fire on their bodies went out.

Then he rushed to the nearest tent.

Du Changchun quickly led the officers forward to intercept them.

However, the officers were already exhausted after being on edge all night.

When they saw the wolf rushing in, they just screamed and dodged.

Du Changchun was extremely anxious, but he was unable to prevent the casualties from increasing again.

I just hope that good news will come from Xiao Beiwang as soon as possible.
