Xu Qingmo suddenly thought of the first time he made a fire in his previous life. It took him more than half an hour to light the fire, but now he could light it easily: "Just, I suddenly knew it!"
Qu Lian was not the kind of person who insisted on getting to the bottom of things. She responded and went to look at the steamed jacaranda cake again.
When the jujube mud pulled cake came out of the pot, Xu Qingmo and Qu Lian were almost pressed against the edge of the steamer. If Hua Ying hadn't stopped them, they would have stuffed their faces into the steamer.
When Qu Lian took a piece of jujube mud pulled cake to eat, Hua Ying walked up to Xu Qingmo and whispered: "Girl, I was wrong earlier, don't be angry!"
Xu Qingmo couldn't help laughing: "What's the point? No one is born with a heart of stone. There are many poor people in the world, but often all we can do is protect ourselves and cannot see the suffering in the world. It is precisely because we are born in peace and happiness! "
"Girl, what about you? You have never seen so much suffering in the world. Why, you suddenly become so... so..."
"Indifferent?" Xu Qingmo raised his eyes and looked at Hua Ying.
Hua Ying lowered her eyes slightly: "Girl, that's not what I meant!"
"I know that a life can be taken with a sword in hand. Ningyuan Houfu is a military general. My eldest brother is both civil and military. He is a good Tanhua Lang. In the end, he marches and fights. After all, our Xu family is born to wield swords!" Xu Qingmo smiled bitterly! , "If the person holding the sword is merciful, his head will fall into the hands of others!"
Hua Ying looked at Xu Qingmo. At that moment, Hua Ying saw the figure of Marquis Ning Yuan in her body. The coldness and murderous aura of a murderer who had been on the battlefield for many years appeared in the body of a teenage daughter.
If Hua Ying hadn't been by Xu Qingmo's side all these years, making sure that she had not experienced anything terrible, he would have doubted whether Xu Qingmo had followed Ning Yuanhou and the others to the battlefield.
Xu Qingmo smiled and patted Hua Ying's hand: "Let's go, if you don't go back, that glutton Qu Lian will finish the jujube mud pulled cake you worked so hard to make!"
Hua Ying chuckled and followed Xu Qingmo back to the house.
The Chinese New Year is a time for reunion, which is a day to eat well, sleep well and have a good rest. Marquis Ningyuan and Mrs. Xu are busy visiting relatives all day long. Xu Qingmo excused himself a lot because of his injuries. Most of the time, he lay in bed reading and resting. Until the fifth day of the first lunar month, Xie Suxian and Yan Junuo came to the door together.
Yan Junuo claimed to the outside world that he missed his cousin, so he went back to Yan's house first, and went directly to Ningyuan Houfu without even having a meal.
This time, because he was accompanying Yan Junuo, it was rare that Zhu Han did not follow.
Because what Yan Junuo said was to come see Xu Qingmo, who was now the Crown Princess. Although Xu Qingmo was reluctant, she still went to the front yard. She stood there and looked at Yan Junuo and Xie Suxian standing in "husband and wife harmony" There, they pretend to be amiable.
"Girl, your smile is really ugly!" Hua Ying glanced at Xu Qingmo and whispered.
Xu Qingmo tilted his head slightly: "Is it so obvious?"
"Well, it's obvious!" Qu Qulian, who was standing on the other side, couldn't help but say.
Xu Qingmo was helpless, and then relaxed the smile on his face: "Forget it, since it's ugly, I'll stop laughing!"
It's just obvious that the couple pretending to be affectionate continue to indulge in acting. They go back and forth, but Xie Suxian's eyes wander to Xu Qingmo from time to time, which is really embarrassing!
"Aunt, I haven't had a good talk with my cousin for a long time. Can I have some private words with my cousin?" Yan Junuo looked at Mrs. Xu and said softly.
Mrs. Xu naturally knew that Yan Junuo and Xu Qingmo had never dealt with each other, so coming to her specifically this time was definitely up to no good, but now that she was the crown princess, she couldn't say much, so she had to apologize and say yes.
Then, Yan Junuo chased Xu Qingmo to the backyard.
Xu Qingmo walked in front, and Yan Junuo followed quickly. After walking for a while, he became a little annoyed: "Xu Qingmo! Stop!"
"How?" Xu Qingmo turned back and looked at Yan Junuo.
Yan Junuo felt guilty, and then thought that she was the princess now, so she shouldn't be so angry, so she quickly said: "Xu Qingmo, you, you are disrespectful!"
Xu Qingmo raised his eyebrows: "Do you think that if you become the crown princess, I won't dare to kill you?"
The image of Xu Qingling hanging from the beam flashed through Yan Junuo's mind. She didn't dare to speak for a long time. Finally, the maid next to her poked him, and then she continued: "Xu Qingmo, don't be too arrogant!"
"You come to me because you want something from me, right?" Xu Qingmo looked at Yan Junuo coldly.
Yan Junuo was speechless for a moment: "You, how did you know?"
"I don't think we have any good friendship that would allow you to come to see me during the Chinese New Year!" Xu Qingmo crossed his hands and said coldly, "So, why do you think I will definitely help you?"
"Just because I saw it with my own eyes, you killed her!" Yan Junuo looked at Xu Qingmo, raised his head slightly, and said coldly.
Xu Qingmo turned his head slightly and looked at Yan Junuo. After looking at it for a long time, he slowly stepped forward and came to her side: "Why do you think that I will be threatened by you? For me, you can't threaten me. If you want Say it, not to mention whether they believe it or not, I can completely make you unable to say it!"
A chill ran down Yan Junuo's spine. After a while, he took a deep breath and said, "Then you, then why do you want to see me?"
"The Crown Princess wants to see me, I have to!" Xu Qingmo raised his eyes and looked at Yan Junuo, "Threatening me, you still have some skills!"
Xu Qingmo turned and left. Yan Junuo watched Xu Qingmo leave and began to feel guilty. However, the maid next to her suddenly said: "Miss Xu, I dare to ask, on that day of the palace banquet, why did you push our concubine into the lake? ?”
Xu Qingmo stopped. She was waiting for Yan Junuo to come, but this guy was still stupid and wanted to threaten her with Xu Qingling's death. But her maid here was much smarter!
"Because I want her to die!" Xu Qingmo looked back at the maid and said coldly.
When Yan Junuo met Xu Qingmo's gaze, she felt chills all over. She almost subconsciously took a step back. Fortunately, her maid pinched her and she came back to her senses: "I don't want her to feel better. The Crown Princess, she is the Crown Prince’s concubine, even if I have a dispute with her, it is just a fight in the back house, but if you take action, it will easily involve the relationship between the two families!"
Xu Qingmo looked at Yan Junuo for a long time, then slowly walked up to her: "What I want is not that she will have a hard time. What I want is that she dies. Do you dare?"
