Xu Qingmo narrowed his eyes slightly, Mrs. He was waiting for her here!
Mrs. Xu had told her everything about this matter when she went out. She had been told to keep silent about anything that involved her marriage.
After all, her grandmother and uncles really loved her, but others would inevitably have other thoughts.
She is the daughter of Marquis Ningyuan, and the only legitimate daughter. Her father is in a high position, her brother has become famous at a young age, and now he is married to a princess. No matter whoever marries her, their future will be smooth and prosperous!
Xu Qingmo naturally understood this truth. Besides, she didn't like the matter of marriage. She never felt that she had to get married and have children.
Mrs. He saw that Xu Qingmo was silent and did not continue to talk. Xu Qingmo was born and raised in the capital, and had such an outstanding brother. It was inevitable that she would have a higher standard in choosing her future husband, but her son was naturally a human being. She didn't believe that after getting along with him for a long time, Xu Qingmo would not be tempted.
Naturally, Xu Qingmo didn't know what Mrs. He had in mind. She just laughed from the sidelines. After all, she was an elder. Leaving directly would make her look uneducated.
Fortunately, not long after, a maid came to invite her, saying that it was the old lady who was looking for her. Mrs. He hurried over and did not continue to talk to Xu Qingmo.
As soon as Mrs. He left, Xu Qingmo hurried back to avoid being caught by him again and saying strange things.
The boat was on the water for several days, Xu Qingmo stayed in the house for several days, Qu Lian fainted for several days, and finally got used to the rocking on the boat, and was able to eat and sleep!
Qu Lian mustered up a little energy and pulled Hua Ying to walk on the deck, running back and forth. In the end, Hua Ying was so tired that she could not speak.
This night, both Hua Ying and Qu Lian slept very deeply, but Xu Qingmo, probably because he slept for too long during the day, felt sleepy, so he quietly walked to the deck to blow in the wind.
The water flow of the Beijing-Hangzhou Grand Canal is turbulent, especially late at night when there is no sound. Xu Qingmo lay on the railing, listening to the sound of the river, and felt a rare sense of calm.
Just when Xu Qingmo was enjoying this quiet atmosphere, he suddenly heard a cold voice: "...the contact person said that there were several family members of wealthy families on the ship this time, and they brought many priceless treasures with them. , and the family members of these wealthy families can also allow us to ask for a lot of money from their families, so remember, we must capture them alive."
"Don't worry, boss, we all know."
"If there is a beautiful girl, we have to keep it for ourselves!"
"Be sure to be smart with your hands and feet. We must not let them contact the officers and soldiers..."
Xu Qingmo left silently. She understood that they had encountered a water thief!
Water thieves have always existed since ancient times, but in recent years, the government has tightened their inspections, and there have been a lot fewer water thieves on the canal. I didn't expect that they would be targeted by them after they clicked on it.
And from what they said, there were probably some of their people on the boat, a few wealthy families, who had probably been trampled on.
Xu Qingmo returned to her house immediately. He knew very well that the water thieves had many people, and she needed to notify everyone as soon as possible.
Xu Qingmo woke up Hua Ying and Qu Lian and whispered: "There are water thieves on the boat. You two should go to the old lady's house immediately and hide with the old lady and Mrs. He. Qu Lian, you must protect the old lady." Mrs!"
"What about you, girl?" Qu Lian grabbed Xu Qingmo's hand.
"I'll notify the people on the boat!" Xu Qingmo looked at Qu Lian and patted her hand, "Don't worry, I will definitely come to you. I won't take any of them lightly!"
Although Qu Lian and Hua Ying are worried, they can only listen to Xu Qingmo at the moment!
After Xu Qingmo left the house, he quietly climbed onto the deck. The water thieves had already begun to board the ship. Although there were crews watching at night, there were not many people. Once they were defeated one by one and the captain was controlled, they could only Let others slaughter you!
Xu Qingmo quietly touched the bow of the ship. There was a clock on the bow of the ship. It was usually used to notify everyone of meals, but now this was the best way to notify everyone.
It's just obvious that these water pirates are also very aware of the risks that this big clock may bring now, so they dealt with the crew on the bow of the ship early and controlled the big clock.
Xu Qingmo touched the bow of the boat, picked up a piece of hemp rope, held it in his hand and got on the bow.
"who?"
"The little aunt who wants your life." Xu Qingmo stepped forward, quickly wrapped one of the water thieves around the neck, then jumped out from under his armpit, quickly wrapped around the other water thieves, and hung the rope on the railing. , with a fierce force, the necks of two people were broken in an instant.
Xu Qingmo glanced at the hanged water thief, picked up the hammer on the side, and kept hitting the huge bell.
The sound of the bell was particularly loud in the quiet night, and many people came out in an instant.
"What's wrong?"
"What happened so late at night?"
"The water thieves are coming! The water thieves are coming! There are water thieves!"
Xu Qingmo looked at the sudden chaos and wanted to rush out, but was grabbed by someone: "Xu Qingmo!"
Xu Qingmo turned around suddenly and saw Meng Hetong standing there with a serious face: "Why are you here?"
Meng Hetong pulled Xu Qingmo to a corner: "I have already informed the officers and soldiers. Just wait here and don't go out at all."
"They are killing people!" Xu Qingmo struggled and refused to leave, "My grandmother is still inside!"
"I have asked Yusheng to take your grandmother to hide!" Meng Hetong took Xu Qingmo's hand, "I can deal with it here, you just hide here for me..."
Xu Qingmo grabbed Meng Hetong's hand with his backhand: "Meng Hetong, do you look down on me?"
Meng Hetong grimaced in pain and said, "You are Xu Yanquan's sister. I can't possibly watch you take risks!"
"Meng Hetong, my kung fu is no worse than yours!" Xu Qingmo pushed Meng Hetong away and rushed directly towards the water thief.
This time, Meng Hetong failed to hold Xu Qingmo. He frowned angrily, but he could only catch up: "Xu Qingmo, I have never seen such a strong woman like you in my life. If something happens to you, how can I talk to your brother? Explain!"
"You don't need to explain!" Xu Qingmo snorted coldly, "If the Xu family just watches with cold eyes, I won't be able to explain it when we get back to the house!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Xu Qingmo turned sideways to avoid a long knife, and then with a spin kick, he knocked out a water thief.
Xu Qingmo moved very quickly, and both Meng and Tong couldn't help but admire: "What a skill!"
