"Mother, I'm here to bring you some medicine."
Su Ningan scooped a spoonful of medicine, blew on it gently, and handed it to Baili Qingluan's mouth. "You can drink it now."
Baili Qingluan has been cared for and taken care of by Su Ning'an these days, and she feels very comforted in her heart.
Now I feel that all the suffering I endured during those years was worth it.
Baili Qingluan was fed the medicine mouthful by mouthful by Su Ning'an before he asked, "How was it? Did you meet any like-minded friends when you went to Mo Garden today?"
"No!" Su Ning'an shook his head. "The other person's painting skills are indeed better than mine, but we don't get along well and can't be good friends. Also, I don't want to go out and meet those people who come here because of my reputation. I want to concentrate on painting and stay with my mother."
"Good son." Baili Qingluan couldn't help pinching her chubby face.
"Mother, I will accompany you back to Xirong after the person who hurt you receives the punishment he deserves."
"Are you willing to follow mother to live in Xirong?" Baili Qingluan was a little surprised. "What about your adoptive parents and your younger brothers and sisters?"
"I want to build a house on the border between Beiyi and Xirong, traveling back and forth between my two homes, but I must spend more time with my mother."
Baili Qingluan smiled and said, "It's all up to you."
"Also, my paintings can be sold in Beiyi and Xirong. I can earn double the money. I will definitely be able to keep my mother plump and healthy."
Baili Qingluan raised her eyebrows slightly, "Are you trying to make mother a fat girl?"
"No!" Su Ning'an shook his head vigorously, "It's to make my mother a plump and thin person."
Baili Qingluan couldn't imagine, "What does a round, thin person look like?"
Su Ningan quickly took out a pen and paper and said, "I'll draw it for you."

"Third Master, I spent some money to find out from the Lu family's servants that the child with an amazing appetite is the child of the Princess Protector of the Country. The young master of the Lu family spends most of his time in the Princess Protector of the Country's mansion and is also the Princess's child."
"Protector Princess? Which Protector Princess? I remember that our Beiyi only has one Protector Princess, a daughter of the Xiao family."
Song Hua said, "That is the daughter of the Xiao family who married into the family. She was recently settled in Huayang County. Now that the Xiao family has been rehabilitated and returned to the capital, the Princess Protector of the Country has stayed in Huayang County."
"Is the information reliable?"
"Reliable! Before moving to the Princess Residence, Princess Huguo went to the Lu Residence first. All the servants in the Lu Residence knew about this. Princess Huguo is the benefactor of the Lu family. It was because of her that Young Master Hanyu was able to return to his roots."
Song Linyuan suddenly understood. "No wonder that child can paint. I think it was the Protector of the Country Princess who introduced him to the art world. Let's change to another inn tomorrow, closer to the Protector of the Country Princess's residence. I must find a chance to see the child's true appearance."
Song Linyuan was very sure that Ning Anjun was his son.
As night falls, the Princess Huguo's Mansion is brightly lit.
Xiao Lingyu finally recovered after lying in bed for a whole day.
Fortunately, she had no parents-in-law to take care of her, so she didn't need to visit them every morning and evening, otherwise, there might be some gossip.
Su Xingyi came in with a bowl of ginseng soup and saw Xiao Lingyu sitting on the bed in a daze.
"Xiao Yu, come and drink the ginseng soup. After that, let's go to bed early. I have to get up early tomorrow to count the tens of thousands of bottles of frostbite cream and cold-weather supplies, and then have the government send them to the western border."
"Is everything ready?"
"Yeah, Du Qingfeng is in charge of the preparation, and the Lu family also contributed. The frostbite cream was made very quickly."
Xiao Lingyu finished his ginseng soup in a few gulps. "Did the government tell us how the war is going? Has Wuyu Pass been breached?"
"There's been no news yet. Didn't Baili Qingluan steal the military deployment map? Even if Wuyu Pass fell, it's impossible for the Western Rong soldiers to attack us so quickly."
"That's the truth. The common people are suffering."
Xiao Lingyu thought of the many people who were like the Su family before and who were not well fed and clothed.
The outbreak of war was simply adding insult to injury for them.
"Tomorrow I will go see Baili Qingluan and see if I can persuade her to write a letter to her father and brother, asking them to temporarily stop attacking the city."
Su Xingyi lowered his eyes and thought for a moment, "If this is done, will the emperor credit you with a great achievement? Will he allow you to return to Beijing to visit your family freely?"
"This..." Xiao Lingyu was not sure.
"If we're not sure, then we shouldn't make it public. The Song family is out there searching for An Ge'er. If they find Baili Qingluan at the Princess's Mansion and haven't exposed the Song family's evil deeds yet, what will they do if they accuse us of harboring a Xirong spy?"
Xiao Lingyu's alarm bells rang loudly. "Ang'er is very strong and can easily be found out. Tomorrow, go find your subordinate Chuyu and ask him to arrange to see if anyone has come to inquire about this strong and can-do child."
I'm afraid it's too late, Song Linyuan has already come to my door.
"Don't worry, I'll take care of it. It's getting late, go to bed."
Xiao Lingyu crawled into bed and saw Su Xingyi sitting on the edge of the bed, reluctant to take off his clothes. "Come up, I... I can still bear it, but... be gentle..."
Su Xingyi's cheeks flushed red upon hearing this. He quickly took off his coat, crawled into bed, hugged Xiao Lingyu, and greedily bit her neck, which was covered with bruises. After a while, he said, "I'm worried that you won't be able to get up tomorrow. The children are coming, and I don't know how to make up an excuse..."
yes!
There are no parents-in-law, but there are children!
Don’t indulge in lust!
"Then go to sleep."
Xiao Lingyu thought he would not be able to sleep after a whole day, but with someone hugging him from behind, he felt at ease and fell asleep quickly.
"Xiao Yu, Xiao Yu..."
After Su Xingyi called out softly a few times, he stood up and left.
Half an hour later, an ordinary black-covered carriage came into the back alley of Yafeng Inn.
Su Xingyi asked as he changed into his nightgown, "Have you found out where Mr. Song San's room is?"
