Luoyang suppressed bandits and won the first battle!
When the battle report came back, Xu Qingmo was still sleeping. Mrs. Xu was extremely happy and came to her excitedly, only to find that she was still sleeping under the quilt!
Mrs. Xu was filled with joy. When she saw Xu Qingmo sleeping, she suddenly felt like a bucket of cold water was poured on her head.
Hua Ying looked at Mrs. Xu's expression and thought about waking up Xu Qingmo, but she stopped her again: "Forget it, she will be able to sleep in for a few more years, let him sleep!"
Hua Ying didn't know what to say, so she just smiled.
Mrs. Xu didn't call her, she just waited. It wasn't until it was time for lunch that Xu Qingmo slowly woke up. When she opened her eyes, she saw Mrs. Xu sitting in her room, looking through the pages in front of her. A book I read in one day.
"Why didn't you call me when mother came?" Xu Qingmo turned over and sat up immediately.
"I know how hard it is for you to get up early every day to practice, so why am I willing to wake you up!" Mrs. Xu put down the book in her hand and pressed her eye sockets a little tiredly.
"Mom, why are you here?" Xu Qingmo stood up and walked to Mrs. Xu to sit down.
Mrs. Xu looked at Xu Qingmo, who was only wearing a nightgown, and said softly: "Luoyang suppressed bandits, the first battle was won!"
Xu Qingmo's eyes lit up: "That's a good thing! Mother should have woken me up!"
"You seem to be only happy, not surprised!" Madam Xu looked a little surprised at Xu Qingmo's reaction.
"Mere banditry is nothing to my father and brother. Winning the war is inevitable. They are just rogue bandits who rely on heavy snow to block the mountains and do whatever they want!" Xu Qingmo said with a smile.
Mrs. Xu lowered her head to look at the book in front of her and sighed softly: "You are a girl, how come the books you read are so jerky and difficult to understand?"
Xu Qingmo disagreed: "I don't think it's awkward and difficult to understand. I think it's quite interesting!"
Mrs. Xu was born in the Yan family, which can be considered a family of military generals, but it is slightly inferior to that of Ningyuan Houfu. In her generation, there are not many powerful generals, but the descendants are all well-born, and they are all young and promising.
They are obviously the children of military commanders. Xu Qingmo has been practicing martial arts since she was a child, reading military books, and others can read and read thousands-character texts, but she learned the thirty-six strategies of military strategists!
For this reason, Mrs. Xu often felt admired. They were all daughters of military commanders, but she didn't understand these things. At most, she could only manage the housekeeper and deal with those dignitaries.
"No wonder your father always said that if you were a man, you would be much more powerful than your father and brother!" Madam Xu glanced at Xu Qingmo and couldn't help but say.
Xu Qingmo smiled and didn't take this matter to heart.
After a while, Mrs. Xu suddenly remembered something and said, "By the way, if the people in the next courtyard come and ask you for bird's nests again, don't give them to me!"
"What's wrong? Are they making trouble again?" Xu Qingmo frowned slightly.
"I also heard that what you gave them were broken swallows, which were not good things!" Mrs. Xu had a headache when she mentioned this matter.
Xu Qingmo admitted generously: "What I gave you is indeed Suiyan!"
"Ah?" Mrs. Xu was a little confused.
"Xu Qingling wanted to eat bird's nests, but Mrs. Wen from the next door courtyard used all the money to buy these things to subsidize her parents' family, so there was no money left to buy bird's nests for her!" Xu Qingmo said lightly.
"I know that, the Wen family, if the mud can't hold up the wall, it's just a bottomless pit!" Mrs. Xu shook her head helplessly.
"But Mrs. Wen refused to tell the truth to Xu Qingling. She wanted to eat again, so her maid came to me to ask for it. I usually have plenty in my yard. It's okay to share some!" Xu Qingmo raised his head and looked at Mrs. Xu.
"Then you gave everything, why did you only give some broken swallows?" Mrs. Xu frowned.
"The ones I gave before were all good blood swallows!" Xu Qingmo pouted, "It was after she pushed me into the water and found someone to frame my elder brother that I refused to give good bird's nests again. I was afraid that she would embarrass her maid, so I gave them broken ones. Swallow! I picked those broken swallows out from the mouth of the maid in my yard!"
Mrs. Xu looked at Xu Qingmo for a long time, and finally smiled helplessly: "You do hold a grudge!"
Xu Qingmo raised his eyebrows: "I'm not a saint, it's normal to hold grudges!"
Mrs. Xu didn't say anything more, explained a few words, and left.
Just when he stood up, he staggered a little and almost fell down. Fortunately, Xu Qingmo quickly held on to him: "What's wrong with mother?"
Mrs. Xu calmed down, and then said: "It's okay, I'm probably tired these days, so I just need to take a good rest!"
Xu Qingmo was a little worried: "It's better to let the doctor come and take a look earlier!"
Mrs. Xu nodded in agreement: "I understand!"
After Mrs. Xu left, Xu Qingmo felt uneasy all the time. She thought about it carefully and then asked: "Qu Lian, how are you doing in the next courtyard?"
"It's nothing. The second girl doesn't go out much these days. However, a couple of days ago, a doctor came to the door. I heard that Mrs. Wen was weak and invited her to diagnose her pulse. There was nothing else around!" Qu Lian said softly.
"Medical doctor? Which family's doctor?" Xu Qingmo asked again.
Fortunately, Qu Lian was more thoughtful and asked the maidservant who was staring at him to follow him again, so she still remembered: "It's a doctor from Ci'an Hall in the north of the city. The medical skills passed down from the ancestors are said to be quite good!"
Xu Qingmo nodded: "I always feel like something is wrong, please keep an eye on me more!"
Qu Lian nodded: "Yes, girl!"
Hua Ying walked up to Xu Qingmo, poured her a cup of tea, and said softly: "Girl, don't think too much, the fight in the next courtyard is better, don't dare to cause any big trouble!"
Xu Qingmo didn't say a word, because Xu Qingling was not the kind of person they thought, who only knew how to make small troubles. She was a woman in a boudoir, and her thoughts were more vicious than ordinary people could imagine.
In my memory, after Xu Qingmo got her hairpin, she suffered from minor disasters all the time. Even when she was walking on the road, a stone would come out and trip her down. It ranged from minor illnesses and pains to serious ones that almost caused disfigurement and death. These things all came from A cursed doll.
Xu Qingmo didn't believe these messy things, but at that time, the doll hidden in her yard actually had something on it. However, when she found out, the contents inside had been chewed to pieces by mice, and no one could Can't find out.
"Huaying, please pay more attention and see if any Taoist priests have been in and out recently! Or people related to these things!" Xu Qingmo looked at the tea in front of him and suddenly said.
Hua Ying and Qu Lian didn't know what was going on, but they still responded: "Yes, girl!"
