Chapter 351: A slap in the face always comes the fastest
"Master! Oh no, there is an ambush ahead!" A panicked cry suddenly rang out, breaking the tranquility of the desert.
It had only been two days since Xu Ning sent Jiang Yan and his men away, but he did not expect that Jiang Yan and the men he led would return to the Western Regions.
The condition of Jiang Yan who returned was really worrying. He was seriously injured, his face was as pale as paper, and his breath was weak. The situation of his followers who came with him was not much better. Each of them had injuries of varying degrees and looked miserable.
According to Jiang Yan himself, they first encountered a well-planned ambush, and only after a bloody battle did they break through with difficulty, but they also inevitably suffered some minor injuries. The original plan was to continue moving forward, but unexpectedly they were attacked by a group of ferocious wild wolves on the way. The wounds that were originally only minor quickly deteriorated in this sudden fierce battle and eventually turned into serious injuries. In desperation, the group had to choose to turn back.
Xu Ning cried out inwardly: "Oh my, this slap in the face came so quickly! I told you not to say that kind of thing casually, and now it has come true immediately!"
However, as the saying goes, "A blessing in disguise", although Jiang Yan suffered a heavy blow this time, he was not without gain. Through this thrilling experience, he successfully removed many enemy spies hiding in the dark, and also obtained a lot of valuable intelligence information.
"Master, Miss Xu just sent you a hundred-year-old ginseng." Jiang Yan was slightly stunned when he heard that. He saw that the hundred-year-old ginseng was simply wrapped in a piece of coarse cloth and handed to Jiang Yan.
At first, when Jiang Yi took the package, he did not realize what was hidden in it. After he untied the knot of the cloth and saw what was inside, he almost dropped it to the ground.
"Master, I have asked the doctor to carefully examine this century-old ginseng. According to the doctor, this ginseng is at least two hundred years old! Moreover, the doctor also specifically reminded that for your current condition, the most suitable method is to use food to supplement your body. You only need to stew a small amount of roots."
Jiang Yan stared at the ginseng in front of him, which looked almost the same as a radish, and was shocked. You know, he had seen many ginsengs that were hundreds of years old in the past, but none of them had such an outstanding appearance.
At this moment, both Jiang Yan and Jiang Yi were shocked by the ginseng sent by Xu Ning. After all, such a thick and large ginseng would be hard to find even in the imperial palace! Its preciousness was incomparable to ordinary things.
Jiang Yan waved his hand gently, signaling Jiang Yi to leave first. After Jiang Yi left, he fell into deep thought, thinking carefully about what kind of gift would be most appropriate for Xu Ning.
On the other hand, after Xu Ning successfully delivered the ginseng, she immediately began to prepare for her return to the oasis. She had stayed in the Western Regions for quite a long time and missed the fat fox and the ewe very much.
The most important thing is that she couldn't move freely in the Western Regions because there were people everywhere, and they were all from Jiangyan.
At the same time, Xu Ning also knew that this Western Region belonged to Jiang Yan's power, and he was safest here, so she didn't need to worry about it anymore.
Then, Xu Ning enthusiastically shuttled between her favorite shops one after another, ordering all kinds of delicacies. She planned to wait until the day of her departure, and then use a spacious carriage to load all these delicacies and take them away.
Not only that, Xu Ning also specially selected a few cute lambs for the ewe, and even a strong ram. She secretly made up her mind that when she returned to the oasis, she would immediately take out the ewe's baby and let the ewe bury it in the fertile land of the oasis.
Now that there is so much mutton to eat, Xu Ning no longer plans to eat the ewes' lambs. She just can't bring herself to do it.
After buying the ram and lamb, Xu Ning led them back to the inn and asked the waiter to take good care of them. Then, she went out to the streets again, looking for other items worth buying and bringing back to the oasis.
She also bought a lot of raisins and naan. Her main purpose in coming to the Western Regions was to buy all kinds of food. She also wanted to buy those colorful and gorgeous clothes, but when she looked down at her body, which was no different before and after, she immediately gave up the idea.
"Xu Ning, my master wants to see you." Jiang Yi appeared beside Xu Ning at some point, startling the unsuspecting Xu Ning so much that he jumped directly into the snow, with most of his body instantly buried in the snow.
Jiang Yi was speechless at the sight, and had to pull her out of the snow with great effort. Xu Ning pretended to be calm and brushed off the snow on his body, pretending to be calm and urging Jiang Yi to lead the way.
Since the last time, Jiang Yi didn't dare to have any opinion about Xu Ning anymore, and he led Xu Ning to Jiang Yan respectfully.
At this moment, Jiang Yan was leisurely reclining on a recliner, enjoying the warmth of the fire. Beside him were many wooden boxes of different sizes, and behind these boxes stood several people who made Xu Ning feel very familiar.
Seeing this scene, Xu Ning couldn't help but wonder: What is he trying to do? Could it be that all these boxes are filled with her things?
"A Ning is here, come and sit down." As soon as the voice fell, a servant quickly placed a brand new recliner beside Jiang Yan. However, Xu Ning was too embarrassed to lie down no matter how thick-skinned he was, and finally just sat upright with a little stiffness.
"Jiang Shaoheng, what's the matter with you looking for me today? Is it because you don't have enough ginseng?"
Jiang Yan nodded slightly with a faint smile on his lips: "I really have to thank Aning for the precious ginseng. But I invited Aning here just to express my gratitude." As he said that, he nodded slightly in the direction of the large and small boxes placed not far away from him.
Xu Ning looked in the direction he pointed, and a trace of doubt surged in her heart. What was in those boxes? When she looked closely, she was surprised to find that the faces of several bosses standing around the boxes showed some excitement.
What is going on? Could it be that these bosses are also giving me a thank you gift? Xu Ning was completely confused.
But seeing how willing and even impatient they were, Xu Ning was dumbfounded.
Jiang Yan's subordinates opened boxes of all sizes. In an instant, white, yellow, and green lights flashed, causing Xu Ning to close his eyes. When he opened them again, Xu Ning was dazzled by the gold, silver, and jewels.
"Aning, these indentures are also for you."
