Three months later, a great victory was achieved at the border.
The old lady, who was enjoying Qing Qianqian's shoulder massage, was stunned when she heard the servant's report, then smiled and said, "Good! You are worthy of being my son!"
The servants in the mansion also felt proud of it.
This great victory forced Xiliang to sign a peace treaty for the next fifty years.
Moreover, in the treaty, Xiliang also ceded four cities and countless gold, silver and treasures.
After this battle, it would be difficult for Xiliang to rise again, let alone in fifty years, even in a hundred years.
[Yinyin, you're amazing! It looks like Jiang Chen will be back early.]
Qingyin smiled and touched her hairpin, "Okay, okay."
At this moment,
Shaoyao trotted in with a serious look on her face, "Miss, the Madam has sent someone to urge you to return again."
Qingyin sighed softly, "Let's clean it up."
On previous visits to her parents’ home, she would go home alone.
At that time, she was afraid of complications, so she concealed the matter of the marriage exchange.
It just so happened that Jiang Suizhou had taken sick leave and had not been to the Hanlin Academy for a few days, so she made up a lie and got away with it.
But unexpectedly, she managed to hide it with great difficulty.
That bastard accidentally bumped into her father one day and blurted out the marriage exchange.
Later, her mother also found out.
That’s it, a small treat every three days and a big treat every five days.
As soon as Qingyin returned home, she felt a suffocating atmosphere everywhere in the mansion.
Shaoyao shuddered and said, "Miss, have you noticed how quiet this mansion is?"
At least there is a servant guarding the door.
When someone comes in, the butler will come out to greet them.
At this moment, not only was there no servant to open the door, but even the housekeeper did not show up.
Qingyin swallowed her saliva and asked, "Shaoyao, have you gone to see if your father is home?"
Shaoyao understood immediately. Just after taking a few steps, she heard a majestic and angry voice.
“Kneel down!”
There was a plop, and the two looked at each other.
Qingyin: This damn body reaction.
It seems that the original owner had knelt a lot before!
Liu walked up to Qingyin with a gloomy face. Her face, which had not been eroded by time, was now full of anger. "Tell me, what's going on?"
Qingyin looked ignorant and shook her head, "I hope mother can explain it clearly. I don't know."
"You are so ignorant! In order to curry favor with General Jiang, you forced the prince to agree to a marriage exchange on your wedding night." Liu wanted to beat this evil girl to death. How dare she? How dare she!
Fortunately, this matter did not spread out, otherwise the entire Shangshu Mansion would have become a laughing stock in the capital.
Qingyin was surprised and said, "That bastard said that?"
Liu scoffed, "You've learned all the rules and etiquette like a dog, haven't you? Who told you it's okay to curse people for no reason like that?"
Qingyin muttered in dissatisfaction, "Didn't you just scold the dog?"
Seeing Qingyin's mouth moving, Liu became even more angry, "Come here, ask for the family rules!"
The nanny who had watched Qingyin grow up said with a distressed look on her face: "Madam, this is not possible!"
Liu: "Bring it here!"
In the past, Qingyin would just stiffen her neck and endure it silently, even if it was clearly not her fault.
She wouldn't even say a word to defend herself.
But now it was different. When she saw someone actually turn around and get the family discipline, Qingyin suddenly crawled forward on her knees, hugged Liu's thighs and cried, "Mother, how could you be so cruel?"
Liu was stunned. This was the first time she saw Qingyin cry. The sobbing sounds were mixed with the questioning of her, and she was in a trance for a moment.
Am I really so cruel?
As the thought came to her mind, she shook her head and said to Qingyin with disapproval, "If you hadn't done something like this yourself, why would mother hit you?"
Hearing the tone softening, it seemed like there was hope.
Qingyin cried, "Mother, you don't know that your daughter almost never saw you again."
Liu frowned, "How could that be? Stop crying and get up and tell me."
Qingyin stood up and wiped her tears with a handkerchief, wiping them hard a few times. Now her eyes were red as blood.
Liu said distressedly: "You child, you are such a grown-up, why are you still crying like this?"
After saying that, he told the person next to him to quickly get some ice.
Qingyin took advantage of the situation and took Liu's hand and walked into the hall. After helping Liu sit down, she sat down next to her.
The maid also brought ice cubes, and Qingyin wrapped them in a handkerchief and gently applied them around her eyes, while telling the story of that day.
Liu's brows furrowed deeper and deeper as she listened until Qingyin finished the last word.
The expression on her face became increasingly gloomy, and her eyes seemed to be brewing a storm.
Qingyin's heart shrank when she saw this.
It seems that the most terrifying thing is not expressing your temper.
After a long while, Liu calmly touched Qingyin's head and said, "My son has suffered."
Qingyin Chick Pecking Rice nodded in agreement, then realized something was wrong and whispered, "My daughter is not suffering."
Upon hearing this, Liu almost burst into tears.
The mother and daughter chatted for a while before Liu personally escorted Qingyin out of the house.
Only after watching Qingyin's back disappear around the corner did Liu retract her loving gaze. When she opened her eyes again, they were already bloodshot. "Someone, bring Aunt Su here to me."
Qingyin's wet nurse was the first to rush to the backyard.
This damn bitch, how dare she treat the young lady like that.
Although the lady is usually strict, she always acts according to the rules.
Over the years, he has never been harsh to these concubines.
Unexpectedly, someone took advantage of the opportunity and caused the young lady to be humiliated on her wedding night.
Fortunately, Qingyin kept the medicine that would make one infertile a secret.
Otherwise, given Liu's temper, she would have forced her way to the house and taken Qing Qianqian home.
Although Qing Qianqian's life or death is none of her business, Jiang Suizhou is a real villain.
As the saying goes, it is better to offend a gentleman than to offend a villain.
[Yinyin, I think you're just lazy.] Xiaoqi complained helplessly.
Too lazy to use my brain.
Qingyin tutted, "I call this farsightedness and foresight."
Besides, the childbearing system she is bound to is not a house fighting system.
You are just lazy.
Qingyin didn't care. She didn't want to use her brain to participate in the house fight anyway.
Qingyin wanted to go back to the house directly, but Shaoyao pointed at the pastry shop in front and suddenly said excitedly: "Miss, look."
Recently, a dim sum shop suddenly appeared in the capital. The dim sum inside is completely different from what they usually eat, and it is loved by many dignitaries.
During the opening days, Shaoyao came every day to buy.
However, there was always a long queue, but today there were not many people in front of the store. Shaoyao didn't have time to say much. She waved to Qingyin and walked quickly to the snack shop.
The corners of Qingyin's mouth twitched, and she smiled helplessly: "This greedy girl."
Of course, it’s not just this newly opened dim sum shop that’s popular in Beijing, there are also many other new and different shops.
And every store is doing very good business.
