After much deliberation, she finally contacted Su Pingchuan privately and asked him to help find the best blacksmith in Quecheng to have a new gun made, but after trying many times, she still couldn't get a satisfactory result.
She is used to using flat strings.
It was like she had gotten used to Xiao Zhun.
Things and people that had existed in her life for years were taken away overnight. Xiao Nanhui inevitably felt sad for a while, until she suddenly remembered the letter sent by Mo Chunhua.
Even when not in wartime, the military often had urgent matters to attend to. Fortunately, she held a low position now, so her duties were much less involved than before. Apart from the commutes between the barracks and Yukun Street, she still had a good portion of her time free, so a visit to Mo Chunhua shouldn't be difficult.
General Yan's residence is not far from Yukun Street. It is built in a very grand and elegant style. It is quite different from Yan Guang, who was born in Yanchi Camp and is rather unconcerned about details. Perhaps it is related to the fact that his wife is from an orthodox family and her ancestors have been officials for three generations.
Xiao Nanhui expected Mo Chunhua to be delighted to see her, but she hadn't expected her to be so delighted. Mo Chunhua pestered her to keep her promise: today she wanted to learn the flower spear, tomorrow she wanted to learn the Mo Dao, and then she showed interest in the flat axe.
Xiao Nanhui had nothing to do, so he met the other party's requests one by one. On the one hand, he was killing time, and on the other hand, he used going in and out of Yan's house to cover up his private investigation.
But after six or seven days, she gradually realized that as soon as she entered Yan's house, everyone would give her the "stare".
At first she thought it was her own illusion, but gradually, even the squinting, mentally retarded son of the doorman's family began to look at her with a strange look.
Xiao Nanhui finally couldn't bear it anymore, and when he visited Yan's house for the tenth time, he grabbed the inner courtyard maid who was trying to escape.
"I haven't even opened my mouth to speak yet, why are you running?"
The little maid was only fifteen or sixteen years old and had grown up in a wealthy family. She had never seen Xiao Nanhui ask questions in such a fierce and powerful tone, and she shed a few tears on the spot.
"My lord, please forgive me. I am just a maid who washes and brushes the teeth. I don't know anything."
The other person was sitting on the ground, grunting, with a look of weak legs. Xiao Nanhui couldn't bear to watch it anymore and picked her up.
"You stand up and speak..."
Halfway through her words, she noticed a bruise on the maid's wrist, and her tone couldn't help but slow down.
"Did anyone hit you?"
The little maidservant was shaking on the ground.
"Your servant, your servant dare not say."
"Oh." Xiao Nanhui let go of his hand, raised an eyebrow and flicked his sleeve, "If you don't dare to say it, then don't say it."
After saying that, she turned around and pretended to leave without any reluctance, and the people on the ground immediately understood.
"Sir!" The little maid hugged her legs tightly with both hands, whispering and crying, "Please, sir, help me."
Although Xiao Nanhui was a soft-hearted person, he didn't like women showing subservience at every turn, and he felt inexplicably annoyed when he saw this scene.
"First, I'm not an adult, and second, I can't be your boss. If you want to talk, just say it. If you don't want to, I'll pretend I never asked you and ask someone else."
After saying this, she was about to pull her legs out. The little maid saw this and knew that there was no way around it, so she looked painful again.
"It's all...it's all because of that Fourth Young Lady who murdered and oppressed this servant!"
The new fourth young lady of the Yan family is Mo Chunhua, the Queen Flower of the Southern Qiang from Lingxi.
No, it should be Yan Chunhua now.
Xiao Nanhui snorted and suddenly found this matter extremely interesting.
"Ever since the fourth young lady learned some martial arts from you, she's been taking it out on the maids and servants in the courtyard, and sometimes even the servants. Since I'm close by, I'm always the one being taken out on. Life is truly unbearable!"
The little maid became more and more excited as she spoke, and looked like she was about to cry to death.
Xiao Nanhui couldn't stand it anymore, and felt that such a noise would sooner or later attract unnecessary people, so he gave the other party some change and asked her to leave, then went straight to Mo Chunhua's yard.
In response to Xiao Nanhui's verification, the fourth daughter of the Yan family confessed everything. While cracking a fist-sized green walnut, she talked incessantly about her "great achievements."
Xiao Nanhui then realized that ever since she started teaching Mo Chunhua martial arts, this crazy woman would hide underground every two days and lift tiles every three days. The maids and servants in the yard taught her all kinds of moves, and they called it "first try of martial arts."
The mouth with the Lingxi accent refused to give up. She finally couldn't bear it anymore and smashed the three remaining walnuts on the table with one palm.
"If you have the guts, go fight in the military camp. How can you be a hero if you bully little girls and old women here?!"
Mo Chunhua was stunned for a moment, then screamed and ran to rescue the walnut body that had been broken into pieces.
The walnut kernels had become a mess, and Mo Chunhua glared at Xiao Nanhui.
"I'm not a hero! I'm a woman!" She bared her teeth, looking wild and unruly. "And why should I go to the military camp? No one will bully me in the camp, and I'm not just sitting there with nothing to do!"
Xiao Nanhui raised his eyebrows, looking unconvinced.
"Who bullied you?"
Mo Chunhua stretched out her two hands and began to count her fingers.
"Lumei and Birui from the eldest lady's house in the front yard, Fanhong'er, Yuse, and Fugui from the second lady's house next door, Xiaotao and Suxing from my third sister's house, Ding Ma, the wet nurse who was colluded with by my eldest sister, Lao Guo, the doorman who was bribed by my second sister, and his aunt and aunt who were the housekeepers... Anyway, all those people I beat up."
Xiao Nanhui, whose family had only five people in total, was deeply shocked by this string of names.
"How long have you been here? How come you've made so many enemies?! That maidservant I just ran into in the yard..."
