The Slender Waist

The day the city fell, Feng Yun was treated by her father as a spoil of war and presented to the enemy general. Everyone pitied her, soon to be a captive, plunging into a fiery pit. Yet she veiled the little donkey cart that took her out of the city tightly, daring not to let anyone see the secret delight in her heart… As a child, she behaved oddly and spoke startling words, once predicting a war in which the whole army was wiped out, nearly being burned to death by her clan as a demon. When she grew up, her beauty was out of the world, but she was rejected by her husband's family. In the period of chaos and disorder everywhewe, where could a female captive go? "I do not seek a devoted partner to grow old with; I merely wish to rule unrivaled in this life." In her previous life, Feng Yun was always the one being scorned by others; in this life, she decided to strike first, turning the tables on each and every one of them, those so-called unreachable flowers and beasts in gentleman's clothing, those degenerates… all to be scorned in return.

Chapter 187 Asking for Money or Goods

Uncle Wentian brought the measuring tape and tools, with two artisans measuring by his side and one person keeping records. Time was tight, and everyone took their tasks seriously.

Feng Yun brought Tan Dajin over. This child's cleverness really didn't seem like he could be Xing Bing's own, following closely behind Feng Yun, addressing her with 'ah niang' and looking simple and honest, but carrying out tasks with remarkable efficiency.

After taking him for a walk around the area, Feng Yun turned back and gave her instructions.

"Xiaozhou, I need you to take care of something for me."

Tan Dajin always enjoyed working with the young lady the most. Seeing her gentle smile, his eyes would flicker with anticipation, knowing something good was bound to happen.

He bowed and said, "Please instruct me, young lady."

Feng Yun said, "Do you see the land in front of us?"

Tan Dajin nodded, "I have heard that a council hall is to be built here."
