Chapter 824 A Dream of Youth 356
Xie Ning did give Yan Xi some advice, but she was far away in Hedong, so Yan Xi had to rely on herself more. If Yan Xi couldn't stand on her own, even if Xie Ning had more experience and knowledge than the average person, or even if Xie Ning was almost supernaturally intelligent, she still couldn't help her.
Seeing the fatigue under Xie Ning's eyes, Yan Xi tactfully told Xie Ning and the others to go home first, but Xie Qi stayed behind because he needed to hand over things to the others.
When Chen Wanniang heard that Xie Ning had returned, she rushed home and saw Xie Ning fast asleep on the couch, her long hair still wet.
It's no wonder Xie Ning is exhausted; she's been sleeping little these past few days, constantly on the move, and she even fought a battle with Xu Hongying.
Qingxu wiped Xie Ning's hair with a handkerchief. When she saw Chen Wanniang arrive, she whispered about Xie Ning's injuries.
Such a large wound, even if it heals quickly, the scar won't fade easily. Chen Wanniang gently lifted the blanket covering Xie Ning, and with just one glance, tears streamed down her face.
How could her daughter, whom she had cherished like a precious jewel for so many years, have suffered such a terrible fate?
"Have the kitchen make some meatball soup later, Bao'er likes that." She's so thin, you can only touch her skin and bones.
In fact, Xie Ning is not thin. Years of martial arts training have made him much stronger than the average person. However, in his parents' eyes, even someone as chubby as Chen Yuncheng is considered thin.
The maidservant obediently went to give instructions, and then Chen Wanniang inquired about the situation of Xu Hongying and Xie Qi. Seeing that Xie Ning was sleeping soundly, she took the ointment and went to Xu Hongying's place first.
Compared to Xie Ning, Xu Hongying was quite spirited, but her aura of bloodlust was rather intimidating, especially when you saw the armor hanging to the side, which was covered in a lot of blood, at least more than Xie Ning's.
This shows just how many enemies Xu Hongying killed.
The main reason is that Xu Hongying fights more fiercely than Xie Ning on the battlefield. She usually uses offense as defense, which makes her more vulnerable to injury, but she can sweep away a large area.
The guards following behind Xu Hongying were the same, so Aqi Lan, who was in charge of treating Xu Hongying and the others, had scolded them countless times because the girl always prescribed the bitterest medicine.
"Madam, the Lady of the Marquis has arrived." This refers to Xu Hongying's mother.
After entering the city, Xu Hongying sent someone to the Marquis's residence to report that she was safe. However, the Marquis's wife couldn't wait any longer and rushed to the Xie residence to see her, at least to get a glimpse of her before she could feel at ease.
"These are all good medicines stored in the manor. Apply the medicine first, then go see your mother. She has been very worried about you these past few days, so don't be stubborn."
Previously, Madam Xu had mentioned that Xu Hongying should have a child soon, saying that Xu Hongying was not young and could not be delayed. The Marquis's mansion was not having many children, so Madam Xu placed her hopes on Xu Hongying and the concubine's daughter in the family.
She loves both her grandsons and granddaughters, as they all carry her family's bloodline.
Ke Hongying felt she was busy and didn't want to have a child so soon, so the two of them started arguing.
In the end, it was Chen Wan Niang who persuaded Xie Ning. Xie Ning was studying medicine, and she herself had learned a lot from it. She had also realized that it was not good for a woman's health to get pregnant too early. After all, she had given birth to two children, both of whom she was conceived when she was a teenager, and she knew the hardships involved.
After that, Xie Ning prescribed medicine and gave her acupuncture to regulate her body, and only then did she feel better.
Therefore, they advised Xu Hongying to take a few years to recover before getting pregnant, saying it wouldn't hurt.
Madam Xu was unaware of these principles. In their eyes, a woman could marry and have children after reaching marriageable age, so how could it harm her health? It was only when a woman was older that it became difficult to conceive.
However, since the Xie family didn't care, Madam Xu couldn't say anything. The mother and daughter often quarreled, but she didn't pay attention. Later, Xu Hongying went to Bingzhou, just in time for the invasion of the Northern Jin army. During that time, Madam Xu was very anxious.
I pray to the gods and Buddhas every day, just hoping for peace. I should have known better than to argue with my daughter.
Both of them have short tempers and will argue at the slightest disagreement, but they can make up quickly.
Chen Wanniang was unaware of the mother and daughter's way of getting along, so she taught Xu Hongying little by little.
"Mother, I know, you're only doing this for my own good." Xu Hongying awkwardly touched her nose. Actually, her mother had only mentioned it briefly, but she was in a bad mood at the time, which is why they started arguing.
Xu Hongying fell into a deep sleep after seeing Madam Xu. Xie Qi returned late at night and noticed that the light in the study was still on, with a faint fragrance emanating from it.
His cravings were instantly awakened.
