"Xiaoru, are you surprised?" Jiang Qiushui stopped sitting on the ground and took Xiaoru to her room.
"Look, this is the first gift he gave me." Xiaoru took the long sword handed over by Jiang Qiushui. She couldn't see what was good or bad about it. She only knew that the sword light was filled with coldness and looked scary. of.
"And this, he gave it to me on my fifteenth birthday." Jiang Qiushui took out another dart, with a bright red tassel tied to the tail. It was obvious at first glance that it was just for viewing. If used as a weapon, it would be too ostentatious.
Xiaoru played with the things Jiang Qiushui took out and looked at her bedroom.
It looks very simple, with no decorative vases or screens that are common in other homes. There are several weapons on display that are more convenient for women to use. She really is behind the gate.
"Qiu Shui, your family is quite simple."
“This is not my hometown, it’s just that my father has been guarding the border all these years, so I have lived here for a long time.
Moreover, Dad said, it is useless no matter how beautiful the house is when the border is unstable. If the enemy invades the city, won't it give outsiders an advantage in vain? "When Jiang Qiushui talked about her father, the respect and love on her face was clear.
"When did you come here?" Xiaoru became more and more interested in this general.
"I don't know exactly how long. Anyway, I was born and raised here." Xiaoru saw the glory on Jiang Qiushui's face gradually dimming.
light.
"Where is your mother? Why didn't you see her?" Xiaoru asked again.
"She died due to dystocia."
"I'm sorry, I shouldn't have asked." Xiaoru took out a handkerchief and handed it to Jiang Qiushui to wipe her tears.
"How did you and Liu Qinglin meet?" Xiaoru wanted to change the topic, so she would feel better!
"He is the child that his father picked up from outside on the day his mother died in childbirth." Xiaoru was embarrassed this time. She originally thought that changing the topic would make her feel better, but why is it still related to this matter.
Xiaoru really couldn't find a topic to talk about, so the two of them remained silent.
"Oh, it's getting dark. Let's go eat!" Jiang Qiushui had finished crying and was almost in a calm mood before taking the lead to break the deadlock.
"Okay, I'm so hungry!!!" When Xiaoru saw that Jiang Qiushui finally spoke, she didn't blame herself so much, so she jumped up and ran out.
"Master hasn't come back yet?" Seeing that there was no one in the living room, Jiang Qiushui asked the maid who came to serve them food.
"I don't know." The maid bowed out respectfully.
The meal was tasteless for both of them. Jiang Qiushui couldn't see Liu Qinglin, and Xiaoru was unhappy. She patted her head to stop herself from thinking.
"Why didn't I see you come to dinner last night?" Xiaoru finished her meal before Jiang Qiushui and was drinking tea.
"Ah, yesterday I asked someone to deliver the food to the room because I didn't feel well in my stomach." Jiang Qiushui was still eating big mouthfuls of rice.
Liu Qinglin suddenly rushed in. "Fortunately, you're not asleep yet." Liu Qinglin pulled Xiaoru and ran out.
"Hey, Liu Qinglin, stop here." Jiang Qiushui felt inexplicably angry when she saw Liu Qinglin dragging Xiaoru away without saying any nonsense.
Liu Qinglin seemed not to hear it and ran faster. Jiang Qiushui followed suit in a fit of anger.
Xiaoru couldn't keep up with him anymore, so she threw away Liu Qinglin's hand. "what happened?"
At this time, Jiang Qiushui also followed, still panting.
"The Second Prince was hit by a poisonous arrow, and the military doctors don't know what to do."
How can it be? Xiaoru never thought that someone like him could be injured? !
