There is Room For the Poor Daughter - Chapter 651

[Chapter 651, Topaz Sunflower Hairpin]

Peach Blossom Temple.

Ever since Grandma Gu passed away, Gu Jian gradually became depressed. He didn’t say a word or eat much every day, which made Daohua and Xiao Yeyang anxious.

In order to let Gu Jian eat more food, Dao Hua cooks him food in different ways every day.

“Master is always immersed in the grief of his mother-in-law’s death. If this continues, he will wear down his body. We have to find something for him to divert his attention.”

Xiao Yeyang looked at Daohua: “You have Do you have a good idea?”

Daohua pondered for a moment: “I have an idea, but you have to work hard.”

Xiao Yeyang: “Tell me.”

Daohua: “You go to the master and let him guide you Martial arts.”

Xiao Yeyang, who has been mentored several times, looked at Daohua speechlessly: “You are asking me to fight.”

Daohua smiled shyly: “Master must let the pain in his heart go Let me vent it.”

Xiao Yeyang snorted, although he disagreed on his face, he still bit the bullet and went to Gu Jian for guidance.

Then Xiao Yeyang fell into dire straits.

On the first day, Xiao Yeyang was kicked by Gu Jian and flew several meters away, and fell heavily on the ground; on the

second day, he was punched in the cheek, and his face was so swollen that day that he couldn’t eat; on the

third day, His legs were beaten twice, and he walked with a limp for the next few days; the

fourth day.

In short, every day Xiao Yeyang was abused in fancy ways.

“Hiss, take it easy!”

Xiao Yeyang’s eyes were swollen and narrowed after being punched, and Daohua was carefully applying medicine to him.

Looking at Xiao Yeyang’s injury, Daohua couldn’t help but feel pain for him, the master’s attack was really ruthless: “Be patient, it will be fine soon.”

Xiao Yeyang snorted: “Uncle’s shots are getting heavier and heavier.”

Daohua smiled and made excuses: “He is also doing it for you. Look, after being guided for a while, isn’t your reaction speed now? Much more agile than before?”

Xiao Yeyang did not deny this, his uncle was quick and tricky, and many moves were unexpected, but he learned a lot.

Daohua smiled and encouraged: “You have to keep working hard. Recently, Master Tian has not been as silent as before, and his appetite has returned to normal. It is all thanks to you.”

Hearing this, Xiao Yeyang raised his eyebrows happily , who knew that he would touch the wound with a smile, causing him to gasp in pain.

“I told you not to move around.”

Daohua hurriedly applied ice to him.

At this time, Defu walked in, holding a note in his hand.

Seeing Daohua, she couldn’t help but said: “After entering March, why have you received more and more letters from Feige?”

Xiao Yeyang took the note and read it, and frowned after reading it .

Daohua: “What’s the matter?”

Xiao Yeyang said with a sullen face: “There is a group of dead soldiers in the hands of the Eight Kings, which is dedicated to hunting down generals at the border. On March 12th, the head of a third-rank general was hung high on the tower. Now the border guards are panicking.”

Daohua frowned, feeling a little worried about her two elder brothers, the opponents they faced at the border were these dead soldiers.

Seeing her frown, Xiao Yeyang stretched out his hand to smooth her down: “Don’t worry, Wen Tao and Wen Kai will be fine.”

Daohua knew that worrying was useless, and she didn’t want her emotions to affect others, so she smiled and said: ” I will prepare more pills in the future, so I can send them to them next time.” In the

next two days, Xiao Yeyang received several more messages from the border.

Seeing his heavy expression from time to time, Gu Jian couldn’t help asking: “Is the situation at the border is bad?”

Xiao Yeyang nodded: “After all, the Eight Kings have some roots in Daxia. Before fleeing to the border, they transported a lot of money and food. Before they were able to seize three cities in succession, it was because of the people who were placed in each city. Hands to respond.”

“Now they plan to repeat the same trick and extend their hands to other cities.”

“Just a few days ago, a general received a distress letter and led the army to support it. Unexpectedly, the distress letter was an enemy. The person who placed Fang sent it out, which directly led to the annihilation of the general’s entire army.”

“Because of suspicion, the generals in the frontier fortress are now afraid to trust each other, and the Tatars are approaching again, which is very unfavorable for combat.”

Gu Jian frowned: “Then what should we do?”

Xiao Yeyang narrowed his eyes: “We must first dig out the people who the Eight Kings placed in each city, otherwise, everyone will be wary of each other, and the morale of the army will not be stable. Moreover, The combat information on our side may also be leaked.”

Seeing Gu Jian worried, Xiao Yeyang smiled and said: “Uncle, don’t worry, Uncle Huang has already sent the Jinling Guard Commander over there. It won’t be long before they will be caught.”

Gu Jian nodded silently.

Meanwhile, the palace.

The emperor looked at the news at the border with a blank face.

Chief Assistant Yang Chenghua, the left governor Wu Jingyi and the right governor He Guangyao of the Five Armies Governor’s Mansion stood silently below.

The emperor glanced at Yang Chenghua who was hesitant to speak: “What do you want to say?”

Yang Chenghua bowed and said, “Your Majesty, there are many people who know Commander Xue. If he goes to the border, he will definitely alert the people of the Eight Kings and One Party. It may not be easy to find out who has placed them.” The

emperor narrowed his eyes, tapped his fingers on the table, and after a while, asked an irrelevant question: “What date is it today? ”

Eunuch An immediately replied: “March 23.” The

emperor’s eyes flickered, and it was four days before his mother’s Qiqi.

“I know about this, you go down.”

Seeing that the emperor didn’t say anything, Yang Chenghua exchanged glances with Wu Jingyi and He Guangyao, then bent and retreated.

After they left, the emperor was silent for a while, and summoned Wei Qi: “Send Yeyang a message and ask him to go to northern Xinjiang after March 29. Xue Xiangchen is in the light and he is in the dark. Let them cooperate with each other. Be sure to wipe out Lao Ba’s henchmen.”

Wei Qi nodded and hurried to send a message.

On March 29th, Gu Jian took Dao Hua and Xiao Yeyang to burn paper on the Granny Gu’s grave.

On the way back, Daohua looked at Xiao Yeyang and asked, “Are you going to Northern Xinjiang?”

Xiao Yeyang looked at Daohua and was silent for a while, then nodded: “Yeah.” Daohua bowed her head in silence

, After a long while, he said, “Then I’ll prepare some wound medicine and ginseng tonic pills for you when I go back.”

Xiao Yeyang nodded.

After a while, Daohua asked again: “When the third brother and the fourth brother left, they took a hunting dog with them, do you want to take one with them?”

Xiao Yeyang smiled and nodded: “Okay, I will take the dog with me. Xiaoyi .”

Daohua frowned: “Gou Xiaoyi is too good to eat, so he can run wherever there is food, why don’t you take Gou Xiaoer with you, Gou Xiaosan is also fine, he can run faster.”

Xiao Ye Yang shook his head: “I just like Gou Xiaoyi, he is chubby and cute.”

Daohua gave him a blank look: “You are on business, not on a picnic.”

Xiao Yeyang smiled and said: “It’s because you have to go out on business , I brought Xiaoyi.”

Daohua didn’t bother to argue with him on this, so Gou Xiaoyi should be Gou Xiaoyi.

After a while, Daohua asked again: “When will we leave?”

Xiao Yeyang: “. Tomorrow.”

Daohua showed surprise: “In such a hurry?”

Xiao Yeyang nodded: “The situation at the border is getting more and more complicated. We have to solve it soon.”

Daohua: “Have you talked to Master yet?”

Xiao Yeyang: “I told you, I will tell him when I receive the news from Uncle Huang.”

Daohua looked at Gu Jian who was walking in front, and said with a crossed face: “You are gone, so I can only distract Master. I won’t be beaten up like you, and I won’t get bruised and swollen, right?”

Xiao Yeyang laughed and said, “Are you sure you want to ask uncle to teach martial arts?” Daohua

nodded affirmatively: “Of course, I think I There is still a lot of room for improvement in the whipping technique, and with the footwork that Master taught me, I may not be afraid of you in the future.”

Xiao Yeyang couldn’t laugh or cry, why didn’t he know that this guy was afraid of him?

After the three of them returned to Peach Blossom Temple, Dao Hua went into the pharmacy to pack the pills and spices that he had prepared during this time. Gu Jian called Xiao Yeyang to the yard, and focused on his lack of martial arts.

After dinner, Daohua handed the package to Xiao Yeyang, and glanced at him: “Go to rest early, you have to go on the road tomorrow.” After saying that, she was about to turn around and leave.

Xiao Yeyang grabbed Daohua and said, “Wait, I have something for you.” Daohua stood still, watching   Xiao

Yeyang come out of the room with a carved wooden box, and asked curiously, “What?”

Ye Yang opened the box and took out a yellow jade sunflower hairpin.

Looking at the vividly carved hairpin, Daohua smiled: “Okay, why did you think of giving me a hairpin?”

Xiao Yeyang said with some regret: “I planned to give it to you when you were old, and then watch you use it. ” This is to tie my hair, and now I’m going to northern Xinjiang, and I don’t know if I can come back to attend your Jiji ceremony, so I’ll give it to you first.”

Then, he inserted the yellow jade sunflower hairpin into Daohua’s bun, carefully After looking at it for a while, she smiled and said, “It’s pretty.”

Daohua gave him a sideways look, reached out and took off the sunflower hairpin, and played with it in her hand.

Xiao Yeyang stretched out his hand to hold Daohua in his arms: “Remember, when you reach Jiji, you must use the hairpin I gave you to hold your hair.”
