"Okay, Madam, you go and take a rest. Leave this to me. Don't worry about it." Xiao Yunqi licked his lips after hearing his madam's instructions and said, "Madam Sun, please take Madam back to her room to rest."
He turned his head, blinked, glanced at the nanny behind Madam Xiao, and gave an order.
My daughter-in-law got up before dawn today to make soup for the old lady.
They were also worried about Xiaolan, but they didn't show it in front of the old lady.
Worry leads to confusion.
This is the case with the old lady now.
If they were like her, the whole house would be in chaos.
Nanny Sun nodded when she heard this. "Yes, Master, I will take Madam back to her room to rest." She reached out her hand and held Madam Xiao's arm. "Madam, let's go back to the room. Master will take care of Madam here. Madam, don't worry."
"Okay, thank you for your hard work, my husband. Mother hasn't eaten for a day. You must make sure she eats a little. People are made of iron and food is made of steel. Besides, my mother is so old. If she doesn't eat for a few meals in a row, her body won't be able to bear it."
Mrs. Xiao blinked, looked up at Xiao Yunqi, licked her lips, and spoke to him.
She had said so much to the old lady, but she refused to listen and there was nothing she could do.
I really have no other choice.
Just let my husband give it a try.
Maybe his mother will listen to him.
"Don't worry, ma'am. I know what to do." Xiao Yunqi raised his eyebrows and gave his daughter-in-law a reassuring look.
Madam Xiao heard this, she turned her eyes to look at Nanny Sun beside her, moved her mouth and said: "Nanny Sun, let's go back."
"Yes, ma'am."
Nanny Sun bowed and said.
After Madam Xiao and Nanny Sun left Old Madam Xiao's room, Xiao Yunqi blinked and said to Xiao Lingdang in the room, "Xiao Lingdang, go help the old lady up and raise the cushion on her back."
He was holding a soup bowl in his hand, which made it inconvenient for him to operate.
"Yes, sir." Xiao Lingdang bowed and knelt down to reply.
"Old lady, let Little Bell help you up."
She bent over and reached out to help Old Madam Xiao, who was lying on the bed, up.
"Yunqi, mother really can't eat. Can you leave me alone for a while? If you have nothing to do, send more people to look for Lan girl outside. She is the only flesh and blood of your biological sister left in this world. There is no news about Lan'er now. How can mother swallow it?" Old Madam Xiao said with a frown.
"Mom, I understand your feelings, but no matter what, you can't not eat anything. If you continue like this, your body will definitely not be able to bear it. If something happens, Xiaolan will feel bad even if she comes back safe and sound." Xiao Yunqi persuaded Madam Xiao, "Wan'er got up before dawn to make this bowl of soup for you. If you don't drink it, won't your daughter-in-law be disappointed?"
If the old lady doesn't listen when you talk to her nicely, then you can use moral coercion to hold her back.
As expected.
When Old Lady Xiao heard Xiao Yunqi say that the soup in his hand was cooked by his daughter-in-law herself, and that she had gotten up early in the morning to make it especially for him, she felt a little guilty if she didn't drink a single sip.
"Okay, take it here and I'll just drink two sips." Old Madam Xiao said compromisingly.
Xiao Yunqi said, "Mom, let me feed you."
"Master, let the servant come."
Little Bell said with her mouth open.
Old Madam Xiao waved her hand. "No, none of you need it. I can drink it myself. I'm not old enough to need someone to feed me just to drink soup."
She reached out and took the bowl from Xiao Yunqi's hand, picked up the soup spoon, and scooped two sips.
———
Night falls.
"Yousheng, did you have fun today?" It was rare for Li Xia to see Li Yousheng sweating while playing. She clenched her sleeves and used her sleeves to wipe the sweat off the little guy's forehead.
It is a child's nature to love playing, especially children of Xiao Yousheng's age, who all love to jump around. He has tried his best to restrain himself.
Li Yousheng nodded repeatedly like a chick pecking at rice, "Sister, I had a lot of fun, thank you sister."
He raised his hand and expressed his gratitude using sign language.
"Silly, you don't need to say thank you to your sister."
Li Xia patted Li Yousheng's forehead gently and opened his mouth to speak.
"Okay, it's getting late, and you've had enough fun today. Let's go back to the inn and rest early. If you like it here, we can settle here for a while. Sister will rent a small yard tomorrow morning, and we can clean it up and move in."
When Li Yousheng heard this, his eyes lit up instantly, "Really? Sister, can we settle down here?" His expression was somewhat incredulous.
They passed through many places along the way, and he was indeed somewhat resistant to Yongzhou due to some one-sided reasons.
After coming here, he didn't want to leave.
"Of course it's true. When has my sister ever lied to you?" Li Xia blinked and said with her mouth open, "Be good and obedient now, go to bed early, and we'll get up early tomorrow."
Children's joy, anger, sorrow and happiness are all expressed very directly on their faces and are easy to see at a glance.
Li Yousheng nodded vigorously.
"I'll prepare some water for you. After you wash up, you can go to bed and sleep." Li Xia said with a blink.
She had to wait until the little guy fell asleep before she could have some free time to receive the hidden clues from the system.
Military camp.
"The granary is flooded, hurry up and report to the general!" Qin Xiao frowned, "Other soldiers, follow me to rescue the grain."
"Deputy General Qin, the fire is too big. It's too dangerous to rush forward rashly."
The accompanying soldiers were afraid that Qin Xiao was too impulsive, so they hurriedly held him back.
"Deputy General Qin, it's bad, the general's camp was attacked by the enemy!"
Qin Xiao clenched his fists when he heard this, and the veins on his forehead bulged instantly. "These bastards can't beat us in a head-on confrontation, so they just try to sneak attack us. Let's go. They dared to sneak attack the general by luring the tiger away from the mountain. I'll kill them!"
“Go!”
There was a flash of swords and sabers, and the two sides fought fiercely.
Seeing that he could not defeat the enemy, the attacker winked at his companion behind him. The other party understood what he meant and took out a poison arrow from his back and aimed it at Qin Xiao who was charging in front.
The villain aimed at the back of his heart from behind.
At this time, Qin Xiao was fighting bravely against the enemy and had no idea that danger was coming.
"Qin Xiao, be careful!" When the ghost-faced man saw the masked man pulling the crossbow, at the critical moment, he rushed forward with his sword in hand.
"General!"
"General!"
"withdraw!"
The ghost-faced man used his sword to knock away the poisonous arrow that was flying towards Qin Xiao, but the arrowhead bounced back and pierced his right shoulder.
Qin Xiao and the other soldiers saw that he was shot by an arrow and had no desire to continue fighting. They all rushed towards the man with concern.
