Chapter 120 Familiarity with the Back
Wen Wan stood firm and looked up, only to see a familiar figure in the distance.
She followed him with her eyes, but he disappeared behind the tent in an instant.
Shan Shui followed her line of sight and could only helplessly shake his head and sigh.
Wen Wan withdrew her gaze and said, "Let's go to the stables and check the situation first."
"Okay."
Shan Shui walked in front to lead the way for her.
The soldiers in the camp all cast curious glances. There were tens of thousands of defenders in the border town, but only a handful of them had seen Wenwan.
But Shan Shui's military position in the camp was not low, so the soldiers saluted him one after another.
There are colleagues who are at the same level as him, and they will make some jokes with him.
"Shan Shui, how brave are you? Do you dare to bring your sweetheart into the camp?"
"The general is in a bad mood these days. If the general sees you bringing a girl here, he will definitely skin you."
"However, your boy is very dark-looking and has good eyesight. Where did you find such a delicate little lady?"
"Little lady, do you have any sisters? If so..."
Several people were making fun of each other, so scared that Shanshui almost lost his soul.
He wanted to step forward and tear their mouths apart.
The military grease was poured out, and every word struck a vital point. Every time they picked out his words, he had to be skinned and torn into pieces by the general.
Shan Shui glared at each other, "Get out! I'm doing serious business for the General. If you dare to make jokes and delay the business, I think it's you who will be skinned by the General."
A few people were just joking. Seeing that the general was moved out by the mountains and rivers, they did not dare to do it again.
However, several people had meaningful expressions on their faces, clearly not believing Shan Shui's words.
Shan Shui was too lazy to argue with them and led Wen Wan away at a faster pace.
After walking farther, Shan Shui explained to the brothers, "They just don't have hair on their mouths, but they don't have any malicious intentions. Miss Xiaowan, don't care about these big guys."
Wen Wan tightened her cloak and responded with a smile.
"It doesn't matter. They are all good men who defend their home and country. I admire them even if they don't have time. How can they mind a few jokes."
Hearing this, Shan Shui's face flashed with emotion, and his eyes looking at Wen Wan became softer.
"Miss Xiaowan, if I can get what you say, the hardships our border guards have endured are worth it."
Wen Wan smiled and waved her hands.
While the two were talking, they arrived at the stables of the border town garrison.
The horse administrator who manages the stables is a middle-aged man in his forties, wearing a heavy leather apron around his waist and carrying a large cloth bag full of horse feed.
Zhengguan Ma was talking to several animal control doctors. Their expressions were not very good, and it seemed that the progress was not going well.
Shanshui shouted, and several people looked over.
Ma Zhengguan immediately stepped forward to greet the two of them. After saying hello to Shan Shui, he looked behind him.
He asked doubtfully: "Captain, didn't you say that you would bring a powerful person to help find out the cause of the death of the war horse today? As for the man, why didn't you see it?"
Shan Shui twitched the corner of his mouth in embarrassment and said in a deep voice: "Miss Xiaowan is standing here as big as a girl, can you not see her?"
"She?"
Ma Zhengguan and several animal control doctors were shocked.
Wen Wan looked calm, and even smiled and nodded to them as a sign of goodwill.
However, she also knew that in a patriarchal society where men were superior to women, these people would not take her seriously, and it would not be surprising for them to say bad words.
Sure enough, before she could finish complaining in her heart, someone stood up. "Ma Zhengguan, what do you mean? Although we are horse doctors, it is a serious job. We are in the Yamen Wendie. If you ask us to discuss countermeasures with a bitch, what will it sound like if it spreads?"< br>
Ma Zhengguan had a sad face and looked at Shanshui in embarrassment.
After all, it was Captain Shanshui who brought him here. Although he had the same idea as the horse doctor, he didn't dare to embarrass Shanshui openly.
Shan Shui's face darkened and he was about to argue.
Wen Wan stopped him in time, "Let's look at it separately and then come up with our own ideas."
Her body hadn't fully recovered yet, and she felt a little chilly after the wind blew for a while.
These people have deep-rooted feudal ideas. If you have a verbal dispute with them, even if you break your throat, you may not be able to change their minds.
Instead of wasting time, it is better to go back and rest early after doing what you should do.
Shanshui naturally respected her opinion, but he couldn't see these little animal control doctors looking down on Wen Wan.
He snorted coldly, "Just do what Miss Xiaowan said. But... our border city garrison has always been fair and strict in dealing with people. Several of them were invited by us to treat the war horses. Since we are separated from each other, their skills must be different." Compare yourself.”
Wen Wan: "...No need..."
Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version!
Before she could finish her words, she was interrupted by several animal control doctors.
"Okay! We agree."
"We have been dealing with animals for most of our lives, is it possible that we can't even compare to a little girl?"
"That's right, it just makes her realize the reality! In a woman's family, caring for her husband and raising her children is the right way, and those who come out to show off are all inferior tricks."
This last sentence is a bit blatantly insulting.
When Shan Shui heard this, he unconsciously took a step forward, his whole body became full of energy and his fists were already clenched.
"Don't!" Wen Wan shook her head helplessly and comforted Shan Shui: "Don't be angry. We are here to solve the problem, not to cause trouble for your general, right?"
Shanshui calmed down after mentioning the general.
"Oh, okay, since everyone agrees, then I will personally bear witness. If anyone loses, they will circle the city with a sign on their chest. The word "quackery" will be written on the sign."
Shan Shui glanced at a few people with cold eyes, "Let's just wait and see. Don't lose to a girl and cry for excuses to beg for mercy."
After saying this, Shan Shui took Wen Wan to check the stables regardless of their reactions.
*
The stables of the border town garrison were very large, with rows of low rooms one after another, each housing four or five war horses.
Wen Wan looked at each one one by one, sighing as she walked.
Seeing this, Shan Shui asked worriedly: "Miss Xiaowan, what's wrong? Are these horses really hopeless?"
Wen Wan stopped and looked at him sadly, "It's not that the war horse is hopeless, but that I am hopeless!"
Shan Shui didn't understand, "Why? Could it be Miss Xiaowan's illness..."
"My illness is fine! But you, why are you worried about rushing the duck to the shelves?"
Wen Wan was a little angry, "Didn't you agree that I would try my best before I came here? Why are you making a bet now? I'm not a doctor, why do you think I can win?"
Shan Shui was stunned by the question, his expression changed several times, and his voice dropped slightly:
"But Miss Xiaowan, you are very human. I always feel that you can solve the problem."
Hearing this, Wen Wan's eyes widened in surprise, "When did you start to blindly worship me?"
Looking at her through a filter puts a lot of pressure on her.
Shan Shui smiled innocently, "Don't worry, Miss Xiaowan. In fact, I have thought about it. If the result is really unsatisfactory and you lose, I will put up a sign and parade for you! Anyway, it was me who said the words, not you."
"Ha," Wen Wan snorted softly, and said in a sinister tone: "You are quite considerate of me, I thank you!"
