"Mom, how could you do this?" Qingshuang was shocked.
"Since ancient times, marriages have always been decided by parents and matchmakers. I was too indulgent towards you before. You..."
Before she could finish her words, she was interrupted by Qingshuang, "I don't want to get married anyway." After saying that, she ran away without caring about anything.
Yuan stood up subconsciously, pointing at Qingshuang's back and said angrily, "I'm doing this for her own good, why doesn't she understand?"
Qingyin quickly patted Yuan's back and soothed her softly, "Mother, don't be angry. My sister has always been like this. Why are you arguing with her?"
Yuan sighed, "If only she could have half the temperament you have, it would be great."
Qingyin moved her lips, then smiled and changed the subject, "I just heard from mother that that man is here today. What's his name, and which family is he from? I'd like to give my sister some advice."
Speaking of this, Yuan was actually a little happy, "This man's surname is Xiao, and his given name is Wei."
"Xiao Wei?" Qingyin whispered the name, then suddenly realized, "This man is a soldier who returned from the border some time ago. I've heard that he's very brave. He led five soldiers and killed over thirty enemies, buying precious time for the main army to attack."
Yuan smiled and said, "Yes, that man is now a Zhiguo Captain. He is already a seventh-rank official at such a young age."
Qingyin looked at Yuan's smiling face and didn't want to pour cold water on her. She advised, "Marriage is a serious matter and it's up to both parties to agree. Why don't I try to persuade Sister later and let her take a look first?"
Yuan's heart skipped a beat. "Who is this Xiao Wei?"
She couldn't help but think too much, after all, her daughter was now the queen mother.
It's definitely easier to know a person's background than her.
Although she asked people to inquire, she found nothing wrong with what she heard.
But I'm afraid this will be seen in the open.
Qingyin smiled and comforted, "Although I don't know Xiao Wei, I have heard that he is a good person. I asked my sister to take a look at him because I was afraid that if I really force a deal and my sister refuses, I will just make enemies with him for nothing."
Yuan nodded. "Yes, you are right. Then you should talk to her. I don't know what's wrong with this damn child recently. She is not home every day. When she comes home, she pushes me out before I can even say a word. She is a girl. Why does she run away every day?"
Qingyin handed her a cup of tea and said, "Mom, my sister is old enough, it's normal for her to have her own ideas. You should be more at ease. Besides, although my sister looks carefree, she knows everything and won't do anything out of the ordinary."
Qingyin didn't expect that just after she praised her, he did something earth-shattering and heartbreaking that night.
After a whole day of hunting, everyone not only did not feel tired, but was very interested.
From a distance, I could hear a group of people talking.
When I got closer, I heard that they were praising Nangong Yuan.
Qingyin muttered something in her heart, then walked over with a smile. When everyone saw her, they all clasped their fists and saluted, "Greetings, Queen Mother."
Qingyin waved her hand, "Don't be formal today, you've all worked hard."
Everyone smiled, then dispersed and sat down around the campfire.
Nangong Yuan glanced at Qingyin casually, then looked away.
He had the chance to hunt a pure-colored fox today, but for some reason, he felt that those foxes looked very similar to her, and for some reason he stopped the bow in his hand.
When he came to his senses, the fox disappeared into the jungle in the blink of an eye.
Qingyin glanced around before settling her gaze on Nangong Yuan. "Your Majesty, you've worked hard today. Ai's family had the deer barbecued and will distribute it to everyone later."
Nangong Yuan nodded, "The Queen Mother can make the arrangements."
As the sky grew darker, everyone's emotions became more and more excited.
Although there were no singers or dancers, they took advantage of the wine to have fun and sang and danced.
Perhaps the atmosphere was too cheerful, Qingyin didn't even notice that she had drunk several glasses of fruit wine.
Although Nangong Yuan was interacting with everyone, his peripheral vision was focused on this side.
Seeing that he had drunk a few glasses of fruit wine, his face was slightly flushed and his eyes unconsciously deepened.
When the atmosphere was tense, a eunuch suddenly said something to Nangong Yuan. Qingyin happened to see it and wondered what it was.
After a while, the guards pulled over a wooden barrel filled with soup and handed each person a bowl of soup.
Qiu Zhu took a bowl and said, "This is a soup made from deer blood. Your Majesty, please drink some to warm your stomach."
Qingyin shook her head and said, "I don't like to drink this. If you like it, you can drink it."
Qiu Zhu also shook her head. "I am also a little scared. I can still eat some chicken blood and duck blood."
Nangong Yuan didn't like to drink it either, but since everyone was offering him soup and thanking him, he had no choice but to drink a bowl first.
After sitting for a while, Qingyin suddenly felt double in front of her eyes and her head was dizzy. Qiuzhu saw this and hurried over to support her hand, "Let me help the Queen Mother go down to rest."
Qingyin nodded slightly and stood up.
With every step, Qingyin felt as if she was walking on the clouds, a little dizzy, but fortunately she was still conscious.
But when the two of them entered the tent, they found that someone was already waiting there.
Qingyin was startled, "Sister?"
Qingshuang was relieved to see her finally come back, but seeing her expression, she became worried and asked, "Have you been drinking?"
Qiu Zhu put the person down on a chair and quickly poured a cup of tea and handed it to him, "Queen Mother, have some tea to sober up."
Qingyin took it and drank it all in one gulp, "Another one."
Qiu Zhu poured another glass.
After drinking two cups in a row, Qingyin felt her throat felt much better.
Seeing that she was awake, Qingshuang waved to Qiuzhu and said, "You go down first. I want to have a private conversation with the Queen Mother."
Qingyin seemed to have sobered up, but her head was getting heavier and heavier.
But it can't be seen on his face.
Seeing Qiuzhu leave, Qingshuang hesitated for a moment, then took out a jade pendant from her sleeve and said, "Sister, keep this jade pendant."
Qingyin took the jade pendant and waved it in front of her eyes, "Why did you give me the jade pendant?"
If you pay more attention, you will definitely notice that Qingyin is not speaking clearly.
But Qingshuang, who was immersed in her own world, didn't notice at all. She smiled bitterly and said, "Just accept it. Just think of it as a gift from your sister."
"A gift." Qingyin murmured softly, then put the jade pendant around her neck, "Thank you, sister."
Seeing that she accepted it, Qingshuang said a few words casually and left.
Seeing that everyone had left, Qingyin staggered towards the bed. As soon as she touched the edge of the bed, she fell towards it.
Fortunately, there were several layers of quilts, and there was an unrolled quilt next to it, and she just fell on it.
He rubbed his face against the quilt and soon fell asleep.
So, he didn't notice that a bug crawled out of the jade pendant not long after he fell asleep.
Xiaoqi screamed in fright, [Yinyin, wake up, there is a bug...]
Before she could finish her words, the bug crawled into Qingyin's mouth.
【Ah ...
Qingyin rubbed her ears uncomfortably and scolded in a low voice: "Stop making noise."
