Outside the courtyard, Cao went to the kitchen to cook porridge, Zhu Juan began preparing breakfast, and Qin Susu stood in the courtyard, yawning incessantly.
She had a headache from the baby's crying.
She wanted to go back and catch up on some sleep, but then she remembered her business and walked toward the two men in the courtyard.
Qiu Dafu approached Ling Ba and asked him,
"How is the fighting at the border?"
Ling Ba clasped his hands in a fist salute and replied truthfully: "Second Uncle, on the first day of the month, our army won a great victory. The general is now leading his army northward, preparing to annihilate the Northern Qi one by one."
Qiu Dafu's expression changed.
He didn't need to think to guess how Qin Feng got injured.
He was also aware that his eldest niece wanted a topographical map.
He glanced towards the border and said, "The Northern Qi is about to change."
Brother, did you see that? The Northern Qi is about to change.
If you were alive, you would have followed the path of conquering Qi, just like the other soldiers of Dongjin.
He lowered his eyes and silently prayed that his fifth brother would return home safely.
Upon hearing this, Qin Susu was filled with fervor.
I really want to participate in this war.
The woman she admired most in her childhood was Li Wenshu.
Li Wenshu had been famous since childhood, which made her admire her.
Because Li Wenshu possessed exceptional martial arts skills and extraordinary courage from a young age, she also pestered her father to diligently practice martial arts.
When her father was away, she would go to the local martial arts school to learn from a master.
Because her father personally taught her, a few years later, none of the people in the martial arts school could match her.
Later, her father saw that she had extraordinary physical abilities, so he personally hired a good teacher to teach her martial arts.
In this way, Qin Susu mastered extraordinary martial arts skills.
She remembered what Qiu Yan had promised her.
"Second Uncle, where did Xiaoyan and Ling Qi go?"
“They went to their aunt’s house to pay New Year’s greetings and haven’t returned home yet,” Qiu Dafu replied.
"I see." Qin Susu was somewhat dejected.
If she had known, she would have gone directly to Xiajia Village.
Inside the hall, the tiny baby in Jiang Liu's arms continued to cry incessantly.
Jiang Liu had never raised a child before and had no experience, so she was quite overwhelmed.
"Look how hungry the child is."
Cui Zhu gently rocked the child in her arms, but she couldn't stop the child from crying.
At this moment, Cao knocked on the door and entered.
"Madam, the rice porridge is ready. Let me hold the child." She said, taking the child from Cuizhu's arms.
Jiang Liu nodded to her, "Take good care of her."
Later, she needs to take the child to Yu Mei's house so that she can help breastfeed the baby.
Once the child had eaten and drunk his fill, he finally stopped crying.
After that, Qin Susu went back to her room and fell fast asleep.
She didn't sleep well last night, so she needs to catch up on her sleep.
Before going to sleep, she didn't forget to give Ling Ba some instructions.
"Ling Ba, let me rest for a while. After breakfast, we'll go find Xiao Yan together."
Ling Ba shook his head secretly, "You should rest."
Amidst the cries of a baby, Qin Susu fell into a deep sleep.
When I woke up in the middle of the morning, Ling Ba was nowhere to be found.
Ling Ba had already gone to Xiajia Village in Qingyun and met Qiu Yan.
At the Xia family home, Qiu Yan and Xia Minmin were feeding the poultry in the yard.
Seeing Ling Ba arrive suddenly, she asked,
"Why are you only getting back now? How's the battle going?"
These days, she has been waiting for Ling Ba to return so she can ask him about Gu Qian's recent situation.
Xia Minmin nodded to Ling Ba and then went to feed the livestock.
At the end of last year, a new piglet and two lambs were added to their yard.
Her mother said that perhaps Minhan would come back when the little pig and lamb grew up.
At that time, their family will slaughter pigs and sheep to welcome Minhan back and cleanse her of the dust of the journey.
Ling Ba nodded: "Xiao Yan, the border is safe, but you can't go to Baiyang. You should stay at your aunt's house for the next few days and not go anywhere else."
