After sorting out the "trouble", Qing Wu returned to Prince Yan's Mansion feeling refreshed.
Knowing that they were coming, everyone in the mansion was already overjoyed.
Hongrui and Luqiao cleaned the Iris Courtyard from top to bottom again and again. Mu Ying got up early and went into the kitchen to prepare many side dishes that Qingwu liked.
Xiao Yulang also personally prepared gifts for his aunt and uncle, and the whole house was filled with joy.
Qing Wu did not use magic to sneak away, but walked all the way to the palace and bought a lot of snacks by the way.
As soon as she reached the door, the gatekeeper saw her, his eyes lit up, and he ran in shouting.
"Here I come!"
"The princess is here!"
As Qing Wu stepped over the threshold, people from all over the mansion came running over.
"princess!"
"cousin……"
"aunt!!"
Everyone was shouting at the same time.
Qing Wu laughed, put her hands on her hips, and looked like she was returning home in glory: "I'm here!"
Everyone laughed out loud.
Qing Wu first grabbed her eldest nephew's head and pushed it hard, then pinched her beautiful face.
When she looked at her cousin for the last time, Qing Wu's smile suddenly became ambiguous.
"My cousin looks radiant. It looks like there will be good things happening in our palace after the wedding."
Qing Wu looked at Mu Ying's face and thought, oh my, the red star is moving~
It seems that during the time she was in the northern border, General Huo finally made a move!
Mu Ying's face turned red because of her. When Qing Wu held her arm, Mu Ying pinched the soft flesh on her waist several times in annoyance and said in a low voice:
"You mischievous ghost, you tease me as soon as you come here, stop it now, it makes people laugh at you."
"Who dares to laugh at my cousin?" Qing Wu said arrogantly, "Who? Cousin, tell me your name, and I will call my underworld brothers to block his door and smile at him every day!"
Mu Ying was both angry and amused, and patted her arm several times: "Just be naughty!"
"Oh, it hurts so much, it hurts so much, my arm is broken, cousin, you have changed, you used to be reluctant to hit me."
Qing Wu fell on Mu Ying like a boneless person, acting like a complete jerk.
Mu Ying almost carried her inside, his face full of helplessness, but his eyes and brows were full of smiles.
"Cousin, have you figured out how to comfort me? You hit me so hard that it hurts. You have to comfort me, otherwise I will get angry."
"Just kidding! I steamed a hundred meat buns for you to eat. If you can't finish them, I'll beat you up!"
Qing Wu: "How terrible! Yulang, please take care of your mother!"
Everyone around couldn't help laughing.
Sure enough, as soon as the princess arrived, the mansion became bustling with activity!
Xiao Chenyan and Yun Zheng were both in the palace. Qing Wu didn't plan to wait for them and started making a fuss about eating after returning home.
The delicious wine and food were served, all prepared according to Qingwu's taste.
She buried her head in eating, and naturally the others followed suit. Hongrui and Luqiao were busy all the time, sometimes picking up food for her and sometimes serving her soup.
"Princess, you look thinner. Eat more. Madam Mu made this Gastrodia elata pigeon soup over a low fire early in the morning."
"And this, your favorite roasted beef tendon, Princess."
"The food in the northern military camp must be terrible. Princess, you must suffer every day."
"The prince just doesn't know how to take care of people. The princess must have suffered."
The two girls were worried sick.
Qing Wu's cheeks were puffed up. She raised her hands and pushed the two girls to the edge of the table, stuffing chopsticks into their hands: "Eat yourselves too! Stop talking!"
The two women couldn't get up at all. It was against the rules for them to sit at the table together, but Qing Wu obviously didn't follow the rules.
Qing Wu had a very satisfying meal and ate until her belly was full.
Mu Ying couldn't help but scold her, saying she was really starving.
Qing Wu smacked her lips and sighed, "Xiao Lu'er was right. The food in the Northern Border military camp..."
Let’s not talk about it. She would rather starve over there than eat the food cooked by the fireman Lao Zhang.
Lao Zhang's cooking skills are exactly the same as Lao Liu's at the mansion, except that his main focus is to make the food not lethal.
After finishing the meal, Qing Wu asked about the people in the mansion.
After all, it’s almost time for adulthood.
"Mr. Situ has already given gifts to everyone in the mansion and even given extra monthly allowances. Princess, just rest assured."
Qing Wu nodded: "Everyone has worked hard this time, so I'll give you one more month's salary, and each person will get two extra sets of clothes."
"By the way, the things that Xiao Shanling sent to your house are all piled up in the warehouse, right?"
Speaking of this, Hong Rui couldn't help laughing: "Princess, please tell Lord Shan Ling to stop sending it. It's sent to the palace every month, and the warehouse is already full. And a lot of it can only be stuffed in the manor outside the city."
Qing Wu was also happy, and thought about visiting Henglu Mountain after some time.
She nodded and said, "Collect all those mountain products that are forbidden to be put away and share them with the people in the mansion. They are all touched by the spiritual energy of Henglu Mountain. Don't be reluctant to eat them. Eat them quickly while the spiritual energy is still there. It will also be good for your health."
"Leave 10% for medicinal materials and the like, send the remaining 30% to the northern border, and the remaining 10%..."
Qing Wu looked at Miaomiao who was eating melon seeds earnestly beside her and said, "Leave it to Miaomiao and let her take care of the demon doctor's family."
The news that Qing Wu and Xiao Chenyan were going to build the Demon Suppression Division had already been sent to Beijing.
The Demon Suppression Division and other places had been cleaned up long ago. Among them, the Demon Doctor was quite special, so it was not set up near the imperial city, but in the outer city where the common people lived.
Qing Wu didn't ask any more questions about the remaining details.
Anyway, the butler Situ Jing can handle it.
After saying this, Qing Wu used the excuse of digesting her food to take Mu Yingchen to walk around the garden.
The two sisters obviously wanted to talk in private, so no one followed them.
Arriving at the small pavilion beside the pond, Qing Wu sat down, grabbed a handful of fish food and threw it into the pond, letting the fat carp and crucian carp rush to grab the food.
She didn't beat around the bush: "Cousin, can I call General Huo my brother-in-law now?"
Mu Ying glared at her unhappily, his face still a little red, but he didn't shy away: "It's still too early for you to call me brother-in-law."
"You, girl, have you known this for a long time..."
Qing Wu nodded, "Of course I knew it long ago, otherwise why would I let General Huo be Xiao Yulang's martial arts teacher?"
Mu Ying didn't know whether to laugh or cry. Thinking of the fate between herself and Huo Yi, she couldn't help but sigh.
Qing Wu held her hand and said, "It was just a joke before, but it's all in the past now, cousin, just watch it now."
"I know." Mu Ying nodded and held Qing Wu's hand gratefully.
"Yulang should also know, right?"
Mu Ying nodded, his eyes full of comfort. In fact, it was Xiao Yulang who lifted the last veil.
The child knew that his scumbag father had replaced General Huo's merit in saving people and married his mother, and also knew that Huo Yi had such deep affection for his mother, so he pointed it out directly.
He was very happy that there was one more person in his family who loved and cared for his mother, and he also believed in Mr. Huo's character!
Qing Wu could figure these out even if Mu Ying didn't tell her.
She patted Mu Ying's hand and said, "Yulang is a filial child and a man of great potential."
Mu Ying nodded and said with emotion: "Fortunately, your hard work in teaching me is worth it."
"I didn't put in any effort. It was all my brother-in-law and the Night Walkers."
Mu Ying had no idea what to do with her "talkativeness" and let her tease him. Qing Wu then asked about their marriage.
Mu Ying and Huo Yi are both adults, and neither of them is pretentious. Originally, Mu Ying didn't want to make a big deal about it, but Huo Yi disagreed. He loved Mu Ying and naturally wanted to give her the best wedding within his ability.
Qing Wu was also happy for Mu Ying when she heard this.
"Then I have to calculate the date carefully. My cousin's wedding must be grand and splendid, making others envious!"
