Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
“Luan Hong pays attention to appearance. I prefer young heroes who are skilled in both literature and martial arts. Can you find a young general with an outstanding appearance?”
Luan Qingshan also knew his request was a little high, but who asked him to have a daughter like Luan Hong? It could be said that he was worried about her marriage.
He also hoped that she could marry a good man who was responsible, capable, and capable enough to protect her for life.
“Alright, let see if there’s anything suitable.”
Xiao Zeyu didn’t think that his uncle’s requirents were high. Who wouldn’t want a son-in-law with outstanding looks? Moreover, Luan Hong was quite good-looking and could be considered a young lady of an official family. She had to find a compatible husband.
Luan Hong was about to enter the house with the dishes when she heard her father asking her future brother-in-law to help her find a husband. Her face imdiately turned red. How could she enter the house?
“Cousin, why aren’t you going in?”
Su Qing had great strength and found it troubleso to serve the dishes individually. She instantly found a large tray and filled it with dishes. When she saw Luan Hong standing outside the Green Pine Pavilion and not going in, she casually asked.
Luan Hong’s face instantly turned as red as Guan Yu. This scene was too familiar. She had asked Qing’er this question just now. This was the reincarnation of the Heavenly Dao. Now, it was her turn to make a fool of herself.
The ugly son-in-law was eting his father-in-law. Xiao Zeyu had already passed this hurdle. He couldn’t stay in Jingshi Dao forever. This place was considered a stable rear area. Mo City was more dangerous, so he had to return imdiately.
Before he left, he sent two teams of elite soldiers to protect the Su family and helped them re-select servants and maids with clean backgrounds so that Su Qing did not have to worry about the future.
According to Yang Ruxue’s intentions, she wanted to keep Su Qing at ho to teach her female morals. However, Su Qing, who wanted to stay ho for a few more days, was so scared that she ran away overnight and returned to Mo City with Xiao Zeyu.
Su Qing started the operation of the winery again. She made wine in Mo City and sent it to Tartan to sell. This way, Luan Hong’s pressure would be much less.
After the incident with Chu Jingfeng, this girl had put her heart and soul into her career and no longer thought about romance. She was more grounded than before.
When Su Qing returned to Mo City, she discovered Xiaoying had been unhappy. She had lost so much weight that she was almost like a paper doll.
Su Qing took so ti to check Xiaoying’s pulse and found that she was depressed and could not be relieved.
Su Qing’s words broke Xiaoying’s heart knot,
“Xiaoying, are you still brooding over Qiu Yongkang’s letter?”
“Sister Su Qing, I killed Godmother.”
After Su Qing’s words, Xiaoying’s tears which she had been suppressing for a long ti, burst out. She didn’t know why Qiu Yongkang wrote that. Why did he say it was because he killed her godmother?
Zhong Yong ca to look for Su Qing and heard Xiaoying’s words outside the door. He suddenly stopped in his tracks and clenched his fists.
“This has nothing to do with you. It’s that bastard who has indecent thoughts about you.”
Su Qing frowned. Calling Qiu Yongkang a beast was an insult to a beast. Why did he do this to Xiaoying? Did he want her to live in guilt forever?
“But why? Why did he write that?”
Xiaoying still couldn’t get over it. Qiu Yongkang’s letter made her feel she was the culprit behind her godmother’s death.
“He wants to use you. If you pity Qiu Yongkang, you will fall into his trap.”
Su Qing felt that he wanted to make use of Xiaoying. The little girl was easy to fool. She would be moved if she knew that a man would kill for her and achieve his hidden goal.
Qiu Yongkang was a dark person who hid his thoughts and was good at using anyone he could.
Zhong Yong frowned outside the door. He rembered why Qiu Yongkang wanted to kill his mother.
On the morning of the day his mother was killed, she told him that she would look for Xiaoying’s grandfather to propose marriage and tell him about his engagent with Xiaoying. Perhaps she had t Qiu Yongkang on the way…
Su Qing gave Xiaoying so pills to treat depression and ease her mood. She told her to take them first and go out for a walk when she had nothing to do. She would be able to get over it slowly.
After comforting Xiaoying, Su Qing prepared to go to the winery. She could have left the winery to Xiaoying, but now that it was impossible, she had to choose another person.
“Master.”
Su Qing had just left the door when he saw Zhong Yong. Seeing that Zhong Yong had sothing to say, Su Qing said, “I want to go to the winery. Are you coming?”
“Yes.” Zhong Yong nodded.
The winery had been closed for many days. Dust was everywhere, and it was deserted. It was not as lively as before. If she wanted to start work, she had to clean it up first. Su Qing decided to find the forr winery workers again.
Zhong Yong had been following behind his master and did not dare to disturb her. Su Qing turned around and asked Zhong Yong,
“If you have sothing to say, say it!”
“I know why Qiu Yongkang killed my mother!”
Zhong Yong’s face was filled with anger. Su Qing gestured for Zhong Yong to continue.
” It’s because of my marriage with Xiaoying…”
Su Qing was stunned. His marriage with Xiaoying? Was it Godmother’s wishful thinking? No matter how she looked at it, the two were incompatible.
“When Father was still alive, he arranged a marriage with Uncle Xiao. It was agreed that Xiaoying and 1 would beco husband and wife when we grew up. On the day we left, Mother said she wanted to surprise .
Zhong Yong was in extre pain. He had caused his mother’s death because of this. He felt guilty and blad himself, just like Xiaoying, wishing that he could kill him.
Su Qing frowned after hearing that. Why did parents in ancient tis like to arrange betrothal? They didn’t care whether their children were willing and decided their fate for the rest of their lives.
“I don’t bla you or Xiaoying. There’s no need to bla yourself. When we catch the culprit, we’ll use his blood to pay homage to Godmother.”
Su Qing patted Zhong Yong’s shoulder and asked, “Do you still want to fulfill the engagent?”
“Master, no one else knows about this. I don’t want to marry Xiaoying, so I’ll pretend this matter doesn’t exist.”
Zhong Yong raised his head and looked at his master. He was exceptionally determined. He only treated Xiaoying as his sister and could not be husband and wife!
“Alright, I’ll keep it a secret for you.”
Su Qing’s tone was that Xiaoying’s heart belonged to soone else. It would also be a pair of resentful couples if she married Zhong Yong. Letting this matter sink to the bottom of the lake would be better.
Xiao Zeyu and Su Qing had returned, and Mo City had regained vitality. The commoners cherished this rare good day and were united with the Xiao Family Army, opposing the diocre and tyrannical Imperial Court from the bottom of their hearts.
Xiao Zeyu began to recruit soldiers and buy horses. The n of Mo City were all eager to sign up. The recruits needed to be trained, and he was busy all day.
During the day, Su Qing went to the winery to mix the wine and then to the blacksmith shop to forge weapons. Zhong Yong accompanied his master to make weapons. Only by working could he calm down. Otherwise, he would miss his mother and suffer. Being by his master’s side was like returning to his mother’s side. His heart was calm!
“Master, what are you making?”
Su Qing would make sothing strange when Zhong Yong saw no one around at night. After a few days, he couldn’t help but ask her.
“This is called a grenade. It’s more powerful than a killing machine.”
Su Qing had only made the grenade and had not put gunpowder in it. Once gunpowder was put in, it would be dangerous, and she would have to send troops to guard it.
“This thing is good.”
Zhong Yong held the grenade and looked at it left and right. He was willing to let go. With this weight, he could throw it to the enemy’s rear.
Su Qing suddenly heard a slight noise. She made a gesture to Zhong Yong to keep quiet. Zhong Yong imdiately beca alert. The master and disciple prepared for battle..
