Song Daming racked his brains, but still couldn't come up with a solution: "Grandma, the Qiao family is on guard, how can we let anyone out? Unless we go in and kidnap them, but there are guards at the Qiao family's gate."
“Yes, Grandma, I guess the pregnant woman will have to stay at home until the baby is born,” Song Xiaoming exclaimed.
Song Xiaohua, with her head down, finally came up with a plan.
"Grandma, I know what to do. Just wait for my good news."
"Brother Da Ming, let's go together."
"Little Flower, what's your idea?" Song Daming scratched his head and asked sheepishly.
You'll find out soon enough.
It was afternoon. The men of the Qiao family were all at the camp. The two elders of the Qiao family were picking pig feed on a nearby hillside. Madam Feng was tending to the courtyard. Qiao Xi'er was in the back room. Mu Xinghe would set aside an hour every day to teach her to read and explain the contents of the books to her. Madam Wan took a carriage and went to Yongguan County to manage the shop.
Now, the shop assistants in each shop have been trained, everything is in good order, and there are some loyal people who can cooperate with us for a long time. Master Shi has also arranged his own people to supervise, and he only needs to take a look at it when he has time.
Lingyin practiced writing in her room, each stroke neat and precise.
She counted and found that she could now recognize three hundred characters, while Xi'er, who had been taught by Mu Xinghe, had already recognized more than five hundred characters.
Each member of the Qiao family progressed at a different pace depending on their specific circumstances, but everyone was studying diligently and earnestly.
When the men returned, they also learned to read. Even the wives of the Qiao family, Feng, Wan, and Lü, took time to learn.
Lian'er said that once she recognizes more than three thousand characters, she will be able to read a regular book without any problems.
Reading a book can broaden your horizons.
As she wrote, drowsiness crept in, and Lingyin yawned, put down her pen, and planned to lie down for a while.
Footsteps could be heard outside, and people were whispering.
"That serious? His intestines are coming out?"
"Yes, I was on patrol and got separated from the soldiers. Then I ran into enemy soldiers who had infiltrated. I was all alone when I encountered them."
"Even if you know some martial arts, it's still difficult for one person to fight seven or eight people. If it drags on for too long, you'll be defeated. Sigh, his stomach was covered in blood. I don't know how many times he was stabbed."
"The Qiao family probably doesn't know about this yet."
"Qiao Lao Er, Qiao Xiao Meng arrived later and told the soldiers not to tell their families. When I saw him, he was still a little angry, but now he's probably in grave danger."
"Then we must keep it a secret from our wives, since she's heavily pregnant."
"Where is it located?"
"It was about three miles southeast of the camp. I was chopping wood when I saw him from afar, clinging to the tree, not daring to move."
"I'm not going to say anything more, I'm not going to say anything more, whatever you do, don't let the Qiao family know, let's go quickly."
As their footsteps quickened, the voices soon faded into silence.
Ling Yin sat stiffly at the table, a chill quickly engulfing her entire body. Outside, the sun was shining brightly, but she felt as if she were in an ice cave.
Do we even need to ask who those two people were talking about? In this situation, the odds are probably against us.
Lingyin trembled as she struggled to her feet, gripping the edge of the table. She needed to check on the situation; she couldn't believe it was real.
