Chapter 197 Tit for tat
Qiao Xi didn't say the rest of the words, but the vague look she cast on the two of them fully expressed her meaning.

"Yes, we know each other. We have known each other for many years, Oswin, right?" Askan said in a gentle and familiar tone.

Oswin suppressed his inner dissatisfaction and nodded: "Yes, we know each other. We are both from the First Legion."

"It was in the past." Askan emphasized.

Oswin's expression changed, and he looked at him coldly.

If he hadn't instigated those disabled soldiers to retire, the First Legion would have fallen apart.

Askan had a smile on his face, but the look he gave Oswin was extremely cold.

Simply trying to smooth things over will not make the situation better. It will only make a few people suffer more.

How can these high-ranking managers understand the hard work of the grassroots soldiers?

Looking at the eye contact between the two men, Qiao Xi couldn't help but regret it. Why did he say so much? The strong smell of gunpowder seemed to be about to ignite.

"Ah, Askan, you came at the right time. The pink-feathered pelican's egg happened to ring twice today, and I just left you a message. I wanted to ask you what's going on." Josh's mind worked quickly, and he thought of the big egg at home, and quickly changed the subject.

"Well, I saw your message, and I just happened to be passing by."

"It's nothing, it should be about to hatch. It's started to peck at the shell tentatively. The pink-feathered pelican's eggshell is very thick, so it will take a while to hatch. Don't worry."

"Then do you want to take the pink-feathered pelican to see the baby eggs? We can go later." Josh looked at Oswin.

Oswin nodded slightly. He wanted to see whether Askan really wanted to see the eggs or had other intentions.

The two of them were finally no longer hostile to each other like before, and the atmosphere became a little better. Josh was also relieved.

Turning around, they walked towards the farm. The two men didn't say much. Qiao Xi could only rack her brains to find some dry words to say, "Damn it! Damn it! She was so uncomfortable."

When they arrived at the farm cottage, Josh first took Askan to the kitchen. After a rough look, he accurately found the place where the little pelican in the shell had pecked and knocked on it.

Miraculously, the little guy inside actually responded to him twice.

"Wow, that's amazing! It didn't respond to anything I did just now." Josh exclaimed.

"It's very simple, try it." He instructed Josh to knock on the same spot, and the little pelican responded to the knocking sound again.

He looked up at Oswin, who had a cold expression on his face. The eggshell of the pink-feathered pelican was thick, and if you knocked on other places, the little creature inside might not be able to sense it. Only by knocking on the thin part of its own peck would it hear and respond.

Others may not know, but Oswin certainly knows. He holds a grudge against the pink-feathered pelican and deliberately keeps it secret.

But after recalling the good things the pink-feathered pelican had done, he didn't say anything. It was indeed a bit sympathetic.

Seeing the smile on Askan's lips, Oswin felt more and more irritated.

He comforted himself in his heart, thinking that anyone who could have a good relationship with that kind of bird could not be a good person.

Then, with a hint of sarcasm, he said, "Didn't they say the pink-feathered pelican missed its eggs? Why didn't I see it come in?" Askan's expression remained unchanged as he looked at Josh. "Yeah, did it think we didn't call it? I'll go out and call it." Josh ran out.

As soon as I left the yard, I saw a pink-feathered pelican swallowing a lamb. Oh no!
Maybe it can’t be called “swallow”. The lamb poked its head out of its big throat pouch and bleated excitedly when it saw Josh.

There were other lambs beside him, eager to try their luck. Josh closed his eyes, hoping it was an illusion. No, was it right?
Askan, who came out right after him, said in a deep voice: "Fenyu, what are you doing? Spit it out."

A hint of teasing flashed in Oswin's eyes, and he was ready to watch the show. This stupid bird always did something unexpectedly stupid.

Seeing Askan come out, the pink-feathered pelican wants to spit out the overactive lamb in its mouth. I spit, I spit, I spit.
It was vomiting desperately, and the lamb was trying hard to stay stable. It didn't want to go out at all and seemed to find it exciting and fun.

No, what’s wrong with you, Qiao Xi glared at the lamb in the throat pouch fiercely, don’t embarrass me, please!
Seeing Josh glaring at it, the jumping lamb felt a little scared. After all, Josh was scary when she was angry, and it didn't want to make her angry.

Then, when the pink-feathered pelican opened its mouth wide, it quickly jumped out.

When the pink-feathered pelican found that the lamb in its mouth had jumped out, it didn't know whether it was curious or had a brain seizure, but it opened its mouth to measure the size of another jumping lamb and pinched its butt.

Askan's face darkened, and just as he was about to speak, he saw a jumping lamb taking the opportunity to crawl in headfirst, bleating excitedly.

The pink-feathered pelican looked at Askhan innocently. It wasn't my initiative. It came in on its own.

Qiao Xi chuckled and gritted his teeth, "I'll give you three seconds. If you don't come out, don't come out. I'll invite Xingyue Bear to eat roasted whole lamb tonight."

"Mee!" The lamb inside screamed, "No!" I came out immediately. Then I struggled out again.

Oswin looked at the lamb with dissatisfaction. He thought he would see Askhan lose face, but he didn't expect that the lamb would let him down.

Josh smiled awkwardly at Askkan, "You know, they're always like that, too lively."

"The same goes for Pink Feather. They just happen to be playmates."

This actually allowed the two of them to find a common topic. Oswin felt a little irritated and wanted to interrupt the scene. Whether in the legion or outside the legion, he was always so annoying.

"Josh, when are we going to check on the construction progress? The pelican eggs are healthy, so you don't have to worry." Oswin's words reminded Askan of the question he had deliberately avoided thinking about just now: why did Oswin appear here?

There was news before that he was recommended by someone to leave the legion and take up a position elsewhere. Could it be the Weird Light Farm?
This random guess made Askan frown. "What's the construction status? Would it be convenient for me to come and take a look?"

"Of course, let's go and take a look together." I was thinking that it would be difficult to leave with guests here, and I felt a little embarrassed. Since Askan asked, it was just right for us to go and take a look together. Isn't that the problem?

Oswin frowned and said, "Askan, don't you have anything to do in your caravan? You have time to hang out here."

"Strolling around? Josh is an important partner of our caravan. It's my duty as captain to understand the situation of Weird Light Farm." Askhan replied casually without caring.

"If you, Oswin, are going to work here in the future, we will have many opportunities to interact with each other." He spoke with a hint of deep meaning.

"Really?" Oswin replied bluntly.

Hahaha, I saw a post today saying that even if what we write is shit, there will be dung beetles that love to eat it hahaha
