When Xu Qingmo returned home, he happened to meet Xu Yanquan at the door who had returned from drinking: "Mo Mo? Why are you dressed like this?"
Xu Qingmo paused and then said: "I went to the shooting range. I was hungry when I came back, so I went to the west of the city to eat Yangchun noodles!"
"The Yangchun noodles in the west of the city, the noodle soup cooked by Mr. Kang is really delicious!" Xu Yanquan said with a smile without any doubt.
"Big brother and I will eat together someday!" Xu Qingmo smiled softly.
Xu Yanquan was smelling of alcohol, so he leaned back to avoid smearing Xu Qingmo: "Of course that's good, in a few days it will be your hair extension gift, and your father will be back by then. Think about it, What do you want?"
"It's still early!" Xu Qingmo smiled, "Besides, whatever big brother gives me is good!"
Xu Yanquan looked at his little sister and felt very worried in his heart: "I have been busy socializing these days, and I don't have time to take you out for a good play. In a few days, we will go out to play, okay?"
"It's almost the Mid-Autumn Festival. Ask your mother to make you some beautiful clothes so that we can go to the lantern festival!" Xu Yanquan looked at Xu Qingmo and said with a soft smile.
"Okay!" Xu Qingmo smiled, "I will make some clothes with my mother in a few days!"
Xu Yanquan naturally said yes.
After dealing with Xu Yanquan, Xu Qingmo hurried back to the courtyard.
After running around for a long time, Xu Qingmo was a little tired. After saying a few words, she returned to her yard. Qu Lian had prepared hot water early. As soon as she came back, she quickly changed her clothes and washed up.
While soaking in the hot water bucket, Xu Qingmo's mind was filled with the women in Ruyun Pavilion. In her previous life, she was imprisoned in the attic of Ruyun Pavilion. She had never seen anyone else except Hua Niang, who treated her well. , unfortunately, she is limited in everything, and the food prepared for her is all good, and she will also talk to her every day.
It's just that at that time, Xu Qingmo wanted to die, so he couldn't listen to Hua Niang's words.
Probably because he was too tired, not long after, Xu Qingmo actually fell asleep leaning against the tub. Qu Lian saw it and didn't bother her. He just tested the water temperature from time to time to prevent her from catching a cold.
In his sleep, Xu Qingmo saw Xu Yanquan, sitting on the bed, and Annan, who was unconscious, sleeping beside the bed. Her face was pale and not angry at all, but if you look carefully, you can still see red spots on her back, that is Signs of the early stages of flowering willow disease.
Xu Yanquan was drugged, and something really happened with Annan that shouldn't have happened. Lin Shaoyang also really wanted Xu Yanquan to get sick.
They are colleagues, but they are also rivals. Xu Yanquan is young and promising, and it doesn't matter if he has military merit. He even won the third prize in the scientific examination. A third prize man with military merit is so flamboyant and famous.
Because no matter how hard Xu Yanquan and Lin Shaoyang worked, they never received praise from his father and would often beat or scold him. He had long been dissatisfied with Xu Yanquan in his heart, so when Xu Qingling came to him, he gave in half. , he had nothing to do with Xu Yanquan, but asking his cousin to be his concubine was enough to disgust him.
This time, Xu Qingling secretly asked him to give Xu Yanquan some color, and he was naturally happy.
Lin Shaoyang met Annan in Hehuan Garden. Annan in her previous life also fell into Ruyun Pavilion first. Later, because she got sick, she was sold by Hua Niangdian of Ruyun Pavilion and moved to Hehuan Garden. Compared with When entering the Cloud Pavilion, the quality of Hehuan Garden is more than a little bit worse.
As for Lin Shaoyang, now he has neither fame nor status, and he doesn't have much money. Naturally, he cannot go to a gold-selling cave like Ruyun Pavilion. He can only go to Hehuan Garden as the next best option.
The sick Annan was the most despicable prostitute, and she could have sex for just two taels of silver. She was locked in a small room, and people came and went, including common people, one after another.
When Lin Shaoyang went to the toilet, he glanced at the backyard of Hehuan Garden, saw the beautiful Annan, and knew that she was infected.
It only cost him twenty taels of silver to buy Annan, and he only spent a packet of medicinal powder to send her to Xu Yanquan's bed. From then on, Xu Yanquan became infamous.
Xu Qingmo woke up leisurely and looked at the box not far away. What was placed in that box was Annan's body deed.
This time, she absolutely couldn't let this happen again.
"Girl!" Hua Ying walked to Xu Qingmo and saw that her eyes were staring at the box on the table, so she said softly, "Annan's affairs have been arranged. I have repeatedly told her that no one will hurt her! "
Xu Qingmo nodded: "Well, send a few more people to guard it and make sure nothing goes wrong!"
"Yes!" Huaying agreed, then took the cloth from the screen on the side and gently wiped Xu Qingmo's hand, "Girl, why are we doing this?"
Xu Qingmo was silent for a while, then looked up at Huaying: "Huaying, do you believe me?"
Hua Ying nodded: "Of course I believe the girl!"
"Then you just need to know that I am doing this all for the Xu family!" Xu Qingmo lowered his eyes and said softly, "If anything is beautiful in the forest, it will be destroyed by the wind. Ningyuan Houfu is famous in the capital, and my father has great military exploits. , and the eldest brother is young and promising, there are too many people in this capital staring at the Ningyuan Marquis Mansion and the Xu family!"
Huaying didn't speak, but nodded slightly: "I understand!"
Xu Qingmo changed into clean clothes, sat on the bedside, lit incense in the jacaranda, and the incense filled the room bit by bit, with a refreshing fragrance, soothing and stabilizing the mind.
Hua Ying and Qu Lian stayed there until Xu Qingmo fell asleep, then got up and left.
As soon as she walked out of Xu Qingmo's wing, Qu Lian breathed a long sigh of relief: "This night, I have been scared, afraid that the eldest lady or the eldest brother will come to find the girl!"
Hua Ying glanced at Qu Lian, and then said: "When we came back, we met the eldest brother. The eldest brother mentioned the matter of the girl and the hairpin. According to the elder brother, the Marquis can probably come back in time for the girl and the hairpin! "
"Isn't it going to take some time for the girl's hair extension ceremony?" Qu Lian was a little surprised.
"The hair extension gift is so important. We should also prepare what we should prepare. The ladies next to us will prepare it, but we still have to prepare the return gifts for the girls who come to greet us!" Hua Ying said softly, "This You can keep an eye on me for a few days and select a few capable girls to come to the inner courtyard!"
Qu Lian was even more surprised: "Sister Huaying, shouldn't you be the one to choose this?"
"You're just counting on me. I'll forget about it if you're exhausted!" Hua Ying snorted lightly and turned around to leave.
Qu Lian's eyes lit up, and she quickly moved forward shamelessly, shaking Huaying's hand: "Sister, sister Huaying, I have never chosen anyone, please teach me, so that I don't make mistakes!"
"I'll teach you something!" Hua Ying glanced at Qu Lian arrogantly, with an impatient look on her face, but her eyes were full of smiles.
