The Marshal’s Wife is Wild
Chapter 284 - 283 I Like Big Beds

Chapter 284: Chapter 283 I Like Big Beds

Rong Yueqing fell silent.

If the Grand Marshal didn’t know Sister Ali was the Prince’s Consort, such behavior was indeed improper.

She had thought her brother simply disliked seeing Sister Ali being let down.

Rong Yueqing pursed her lips, wanting to argue that this wasn’t right.

But she also knew that since childhood her brother seldom came across anything he liked, and once he did, he would stop at nothing to obtain it, regardless of the means.

Just like with that position, he wouldn’t hesitate to scheme and even stain his hands with blood.

Rong Chengjue never expected Rong Yueqing to understand anything and sent her away.

He had always been despicable, using any means necessary.

It wasn’t easy to enter Abel Star, but with the privileges granted by Commander Gong and Si Yuting, this wasn’t a problem for Qu Tong.

The soldiers of the First Legion didn’t welcome the wife of their Grand Marshal, but they did welcome Miss Jun Li.

Not to mention Miss Jun Li’s previous support with their elixirs, just her strength alone would make them happy if she could offer some guidance.

Gong Yun even came over from the Second Legion just to chat with Qu Tong for a while.

Then he reminded Si Yuting to take good care of her and rushed back overnight, leaving Qu Tong somewhat overwhelmed by the attention.

In the evening, Qu Tong received a message from Wen You, "Tongtong, Miss Jun Li has returned to Abel Star! Did you know?"

Qu Tong: "I know, what’s up?"

Wen You: "Tongtong baby, why don’t you whisper in the boss’s ear and get Xiong Lie to come over and take over a couple of days early?"

Qu Tong’s lips twitched as she replied helplessly, "Isn’t Xiong Lie back on Capital Star?"

According to Si Yuting, Xiong Lie was in charge of escorting the seventh prince and the Pharmacist back.

Furthermore, Rong Chengjue, not lacking money, had splurged on a full set of Healing Chambers for the Pharmacist.

Under the influence of owing a life-saving debt and a huge sum of money, the Senior Alchemist finally agreed to go to the Kasa Empire with Rong Chengjue, on the condition that he could bring his wife and children, to which Rong Chengjue naturally agreed generously.

Qu Tong wasn’t surprised by this at all. In Rong Chengjue’s hands, what wasn’t voluntary at first would probably end up being voluntary in the end.

Wen You quickly replied, "I didn’t get notified, wait, I’ll go find him!"

It was a temporary mission for Si Yuting to catch the Star Thief, so it was normal for Wen You not to know.

Within a couple of days, Wen You and Cheng Feng returned.

Despite Wen You’s grand aspirations to achieve elixir freedom, two conversations with "Jun Li" made her give up.

She told Qu Tong via Light Brain, "Miss Jun Li is so aloof, I still prefer a cute and soft sister like you."

Just as Qu Tong was about to reply, she received a second message, "You’ll stay my one and only treasure, so remember to steal her elixirs to sustain me."

Qu Tong: "..."

Then Wen You complained to her about Cheng Feng, "That dog Cheng Feng, a real bootlicker, can’t move an inch when he sees a beauty, always ’Miss Jun Li’ this, ’Miss Jun Li’ that."

Qu Tong: "?"

She felt that it was the sight of the elixirs on her that really stopped Cheng Feng in his tracks.

Plus, Cheng Feng was naturally easygoing, capable of striking up a conversation with anyone.

Wen You: "You better warn your sister to be careful, that dog is no good, really sly, always smiling like a butterfly, make sure she doesn’t get fooled."

Qu Tong couldn’t help but laugh out loud for a moment.

The noise drew the attention of the soldiers resting in the training ground.

Cheng Feng, seated at the back, was blocked by the soldiers in front, so he leaned out to take a look from the side.

Wen You, looking up and seeing Cheng Feng up close in her face, immediately raised her fist, "Looking for a beating, huh?"

Cheng Feng, quick to react, caught Wen You’s fist, and Wen You threw a side kick at him.

The two of them started to scuffle, something the other soldiers had grown accustomed to.

Wen You might have been preoccupied with her Light Brain and didn’t see it, but Qu Tong saw everything and understood what was happening.

She edited a message and sent it to Wen You, "You should be careful too."

Si Yuting didn’t restrict Qu Tong; she could go wherever she wanted.

However, this time she rarely went out.

Because she found a new pleasure, watching Jiang Zhou and his team researching the Insect Clan.

Initially, Jiang Zhou was very guarded against her, but with Commander Gong’s and Si Yuting’s personal instructions, he allowed her to observe.

Sometimes, he would even consider some of Qu Tong’s suggestions.

Qu Tong also wanted to know what effect elixirs had on the Insect Clan, could they be eaten as food?

When the light brain lit up, Qu Tong knew Si Yuting was back.

Jiang Zhou also had matters to report and followed out of the medical room with the testing data.

Passing through the hall, he couldn’t help but stop in his tracks.

"Hmm? This vine was already starting to rot a few days ago, how come it’s alive again?"

"It just has a strong vitality," Qu Tong replied nonchalantly.

"Miss Jun Li, would you mind bringing the documents to the Grand Marshal?" Jiang Zhou handed a stack of documents to Qu Tong and took out a scalpel from the space button.

With the Grand Marshal being so wise, he should understand it; researching this vine is more important.

Qu Tong raised an eyebrow, wondering if Doctor Zhou would become the next Old Yuan.

After delivering the documents to Si Yuting and briefly explaining the situation, Qu Tong sat down on Si Yuting’s bed.

Pointing here and there, "Your bed is too small, I prefer a big one."

Then looking towards the empty glass windows: "There should be a curtain here."

Qu Tong was just speaking off the cuff; big beds are comfortable to sleep in, and not having curtains affects the quality of sleep during the day.

However, Si Yuting was probably not used to that; she had never seen Si Yuting take a nap.

But Si Yuting seemed to think of something, his ears turned a bit red, he coughed lightly, and didn’t reply.

Qu Tong did not mind and shifted her gaze to the glass jar on the bedside table.

Her memory wasn’t bad, and now inside there was a neatly folded paper and a ring, which should be a space button, a very common design.

Out of curiosity, Qu Tong reached out to hold it, tilting her head to look at Si Yuting: "Your Highness, may I take a look at what’s inside?"

Under normal circumstances, Si Yuting wouldn’t refuse her request, especially since the object didn’t seem to be very precious.

However, Si Yuting unusually declined today.

Taking the glass jar from Qu Tong’s hands, "I’ll show you later."

Fine, she wasn’t that curious.

Si Yuting placed the glass jar on the very top shelf of the bookcase, just within Si Yuting’s reach.

Qu Tong: "..."

Qu Tong stroked the concubine bracelet on her wrist, gazing at it quietly for a while.

Forget it.

While Si Yuting was working, Qu Tong also had her own matters to handle.

Ke Jun’s leg injury had healed, and though he still needed to recuperate from the internal injuries, it wasn’t a big issue.

With an efficient interstellar resident security system, Ke Jun even applied for a subsidy, although it was far less than what the healing chamber cost, but it was still not bad.

The first batch of poultry bred on Luyi Star had matured; last time, Ke Jun went to discuss this matter with Drunken Star River.

The new hires had also started to get the hang of the work, preparing to develop two more farms.

Qu Tong only found out later that remote stars pay taxes every ten years, which turns out to be quite economical.

She took back the words she had whispered about the Emperor being greedy.

For the next nine years, as long as her shop didn’t go bankrupt, she could be a happy wealthy woman.

She reluctantly decided to let go of Si Yuting’s inheritance.

Si Yuting noticed Qu Tong’s drifting gaze, looked back at her with confusion; Qu Tong grinned and lowered her head to look at the light brain again.
