Sun Ergou suppressed a laugh. The eldest brother was just too proud; he was clearly the one who got beaten up by his wife.
So, what exactly happened last night? I'm so curious.
Li Ruo glanced at someone, then quickly looked away. "I agreed to deliver the rice. I'll have the Taoist priest send someone to carry it back for you later."
Xie Xiao saw a thin blush rise on her cheeks and remembered how she had been forced to cry last night. He smiled slightly but quickly suppressed it. "Why are you still distinguishing between you and me? Besides, it's not like I can't afford to pay for this."
Look at this and that, everyone. Why is it that just two simple sentences make it feel like the air is filled with the smell of dog food (a Chinese slang term for public displays of affection)?
"Ahem!" Li Qing coughed lightly, meaning, "Have the scouts from Qinghua Mountain returned, Chief?"
Xie Xiao immediately straightened his expression and said, "I came here to tell you about this. The Prince of Jiangning abandoned Qinghua Mountain, leaving only the people there."

“Hmm.” Li Qing took out a map. “I drew this when I came back. Yuzhou is in a very important position. It is connected to the Qinghua North Mountain General’s lineage. We will use these three mountains as our base and head north and then south.”
Everyone was shocked.
A glint of light appeared in Xie Xiao's eyes. "Big brother, have you made up your mind? Once you take that step, there's no turning back."
Yesterday he was still somewhat uncertain, because General Li was such a loyal and righteous man, and he was afraid that Li Qing would not be able to make up his mind.
