Ch. 32: Vicious Ru Yi Sows Dissension

[1] 云岭; Yun Ling or cloudy peaks, also known as the Yun mountain range is in northwest Yunnan province.  The mountains are beautiful and majestic and were a salt transportation route in ancient times.  Salt in ancient times was used like money and the salt industry was controlled by the government. One use of salt that we modern people don't tend to think of is preserving food.  In a time when there was no refrigeration, food preservation could mean the difference between starvation or being able to continue living.

[2] Rules are dead, people are living; The gist is that people are alive and therefore are more important than following rules. The expression is used to justify ignoring and circumventing laws and rules.

[3] Stone Forest; Yunan province is home to the famous 石林 which literally means stone forest. These are very scenic stone formations.

Ch32 – Vicious Ru Yi Sows Dissension

Su Tang's ears perked up waiting for more to be said. (But) she didn't see him open his mouth again for a long time and turned over in her mind that cold noodles probably didn't want to continue this topic. Although she was keenly interested about Daren Xiao Zhan, to continuously ask about another man in the face of her own man appeared somewhat improper. Therefore, she thought for a bit and then didn't ask anymore.

But, it was a long-suffering night and she couldn't sleep. So what ought to be done?

Su Tang tossed back and forth with the appearance of a pancake being properly flipped. By the time she was properly cooked, Song Shi An couldn't stand it anymore.

Song Shi An became threatening. "Did you take the wrong medicine again?" It was hard to restrain himself. He wanted to calm his mind and sleep but couldn't stand Su Tang tossing and turning at his side.  As a result, he made cold sarcastic remarks with knitted eyebrows

Su Tang listened though was unable to make heads or tails of these comments. She saw his interrogating eyes and couldn't help but blankly stare, "No."

"Then why are you moving around so much!?" Song Shi An finished his words, and turned over again to go to sleep.

"..." Su Tang (mentally) countered for quite a while but it was (already) the next day when she understood what his words meant. Overly thinking about yesterday evenings' embarrassing situation, her face again turned red. (But) in the twinkling of an eye she flew again into a rage and lifted her foot to cross over!

Ahhh!

Err, no wait a minute. What did she kick a moment ago?

Looking at Song Shi An's scowl as he abruptly turned around, one hand still placed on his buttocks, Su Tang shamefaced gave a tiny smile.  She drew back her foot in a relaxed manner. "That, a slip of the hand, a slip of the hand. Uh no, a slip of the foot, a slip of the foot...."

Both of Song Shi An's eyes quickly emitted fire.  He's lived 28 years, his status being the nation's senior-most general.  When has someone, has someone, has someone kicked....kicked....that!

And the leg strength was great!

Suppressing his fury, he indignantly turned over and proceeded to get to sleep!

But this fire hadn't yet extinguished, when he heard that woman on his side indistinctly sigh again. "Hey, the feeling in my foot is still pretty good."

Senior general Song listened to this voice which seemed pleasantly memorable, and without breathing almost spit blood.

Su Tang wiggled her foot and fixed her eyes on Song Shi An's butt. In her heart she was still thinking of the kick. She wasn't drowsy at all and her heart was cheerful. Thinking about his somber face that afternoon, she felt that even if there wasn't anything the matter she ought to sympathetically inquire. It wasn't a bad idea to display gentle and soft female virtues, integrity, moral fiber, and show consideration. So accordingly, she again poked and jabbed his back. "Hey, cold noodles. Are you asleep yet?"
