Dafeng s Night Squad



48 Aunt, Hmph, at least the little bastard still has a conscience (1)

Auntie was angry, and her beautiful face was as cold as ice, the kind that could not be coaxed.

Second uncle Xu’s scalp turned numb and he complained, “”Ningyan, it’s good that you have money to supplement your family. Why do you have to buy these flashy but useless things?”

He planned to diss his nephew to find his wife’s approval and dispel her anger.

we don’t lack food and clothing at home, ” Xu lingyue said lightly. big brother’s salary is also included in father’s food.

Second uncle Xu was choked by his daughter’s words, so he changed the topic again. “Ningyan, where did you get the silver?”

Xu Qi ‘an said,”I saw that the jewelry on my sister’s head was too cheap, so I remembered it in my heart. I reduced my clothes and diet to save some money. In addition, there’s a half-price guessing game in the treasure instrument Pavilion …”

He could not say that the jewelry was from Bai Yan. He did not want to end up like Xu cijiu and suffer a social death.

Xu lingyue’s hands trembled slightly as she held the bowl. Her heart suddenly softened, and she stared at Xu Qi ‘an with her eyes full of tears.

In this family, only her eldest brother cared about her. Her father and second brother had never felt that there was anything wrong with her wearing cheap jewelry.

A girl also needed to keep up appearances.

“Big brother, is it good?” She inserted the Golden buyao into her hair bun, and the candlelight reflected the girl’s sharp oval face. Her facial features were exquisite, and her black eyes were bright and lively.

The Auntie was even more jealous.

Xu Qi ‘an was also jealous. He looked at Xu Erlang on the left. The younger brother was wearing a navy blue robe. His black and beautiful long hair was tied up with a green jade hairpin. His lips were red and his teeth were white. He was extremely handsome.

Then, he looked at the girl who was shining with the Golden buyao and the beautiful Auntie.

Everyone in the family has been Kissed by an Angel, and I’m the only one who’s ordinary?

When he saw the little bean, who had facial features similar to second uncle Xu’s, he was no longer jealous.

“Come, lingying, eat meat.” Xu Qi ‘an picked up a piece of fatty meat for her, and then picked up some lean meat for Xu lingyue.

“Big brother is the best.”

“You’re the most pleasing to big brother.”

“Then why didn’t big brother save me just now?” The little boy remembered that not only did his big brother not save her just now, but he also laughed loudly.

only through suffering can one rise above others. Only through suffering can one become an invincible expert.

“Then, is there anyone who can be invincible without suffering?”

“Yes, in a dream.”

…..

When they were almost done eating, his aunt said lightly,”Ningyan will be twenty after the new year.”

“Oh, Auntie actually remembers my age.” Xu Qi ‘an was very surprised.

The Auntie ignored him and turned to second uncle Xu. “Master, we have to arrange a marriage for ningyan.”

Xu lingyue and Xu niannian raised their heads at the same time and stared at their mother.

Xu Qi ‘an was the slowest. She was stunned for a few seconds before she reacted. Then, she found it hard to believe.

The unlucky aunt is actually interested in my nephew’s marriage. Is the sun going to rise from the West tomorrow?

One had to know that getting married was a very grand event. The three books, six rites, and eight palanquins were all silver.

The aunt looked at her unlucky nephew and continued, ” I think Lu ‘er is not bad. She was raised in the manor since she was young, and she and ningyan are childhood sweethearts.

And he didn’t even need to spend any money … As expected, an aunt was still an aunt …

The pretty Lu er let out an ‘ah’, her cheeks were flushed, and she was at a loss.

Love came too quickly like a tornado, blowing her into a daze.

In her heart, she was both shy and embarrassed, but also a little happy.

Xu lingyue looked at the head maidservant who seemed to be dull in front of her and was a little unhappy. mother, don’t make your own decisions. Let big brother discuss his marriage with father.

The unspoken meaning was, mother, don’t you know what position you have in big brother’s heart?

The aunt hated her daughter for snatching her hairpin and scolded,”Ning Yan and Lu ‘e are a Beautiful couple, and they know each other very well. Is it your turn as a sister to object?”

Xu lingyue turned her head away in grievance.

No, no, it’s too much to know the root of the problem. It’s not that far yet … Xu Qi ‘an was just about to express his opinion when he heard his younger brother speak.

mother feels that Lu ‘E’s marriage to big brother will not only exempt you from the betrothal money, but also give you a reason to move out, ” Xu niannian said.

It was a hit.

“You child, you’ve never known how to talk,” his aunt said angrily.

Second uncle Xu made a final conclusion. that’s enough. You don’t have to worry about this. Ningyan won’t get close to women until he reaches the Qi refining stage.

Lu er’s face was filled with disappointment as she lowered her head.

Other than the madam who had served her since she was young, the whole family seemed to be against her marrying the eldest son.

……

After second uncle Xu finished his dinner, he ran away with the Imperial Sword guards and then went to the study to discuss tomorrow’s matters with his nephew and son.

When he returned to his room, he saw his wife sitting by the bed, looking angry.

“Do you have to be so angry until now?” Second uncle Xu said helplessly.

The Auntie turned around and stared at him with her beautiful eyes.”That little brat of yours has no conscience at all. When I took him from you, he was still the size of a kitten. Who raised him?

“You only know how to anger me, you only know how to anger me. Why raise him up? it’s better to feed him to rats.”

As she muttered to herself, she suddenly saw her husband take out a wooden box from his arms and hand it over. The wooden box was engraved with the words “treasure instrument Pavilion.”

She opened her red mouth and looked at her husband in confusion and shock.

“Ningyan asked me to give this to you.” Second uncle Xu said helplessly,”since neither of you are willing to bow your head and admit defeat, he’s too embarrassed to give it to you.” That’s why I didn’t take it out on the table.”

The aunt opened the box anxiously. Inside was a golden buyao that was heavier than her daughter’s and more exquisite.

She held the mirror in her hand and walked to the bronze mirror. She sat on the dressing table and put it on.

An oval-shaped face would make a woman look dignified, especially after becoming a married woman.

The woman with the Oval face was delicate and pretty, but once she became a married woman, she was beautiful.

His aunt belonged to the latter.

She looked at herself in the bronze mirror and snorted. “That little bastard still has some conscience.”

Second uncle Xu stood by the window on the other side of the room and stared at the quiet courtyard with a serious expression. Beside him was the standard saber of the Royal saber guard.

….

It was a peaceful night, and second uncle Xu and Xu Qi ‘an, who had not slept all night, felt relieved.

When she woke up in the morning, Xu lingyue was still wearing a thin layer of clothing. She opened the window and stretched her beautiful figure in the cool air.

“Miss, What are you looking at by the window?”

“I didn’t see anything.”

After a while …

“Miss, are you waiting for something?”

“I’m not waiting for anything.”

“Young miss, quickly come over and dress up.”

“I know … You’re so annoying.”

Second uncle Xu left the house at dawn and gathered the Imperial Sword guards under him. Xu Qi ‘an went out to rent a carriage, while Xu Erlang stayed at home to instruct the servants to tidy up the luggage.

When it was around noon, two horse carriages and dozens of riders exited the city gates, rushing towards the Northwest where the Yun Lu Academy was located.

The speed of the carriage was not fast. It took them four hours to reach the foot of Mount Clear cloud.

The three men of the Xu family heaved a sigh of relief at the same time.

“Is it too paranoid?” Second uncle Xu frowned.

Xu Erlang, who was good at military tactics, said slowly, “”If the people who followed big brother yesterday were really from the Zhou mansion, then they have already missed two of the best opportunities to make a move.

“But it’s also possible that in Assistant Minister Zhou’s eyes, we’re just ants that can be crushed at any time and are not in a hurry to deal with. He’s in even greater trouble.”

Underestimating the enemy was a great taboo in the military, but the premise was that the two sides were evenly matched, or the difference was not that great.

The Xu family was indeed nothing compared to the Zhou family.

“But there’s one thing we have to face. If Assistant Minister Zhou is not eliminated, we will die.” Xu Qi ‘an said in a deep voice.

The little one’s happy laughter interrupted their conversation. She poked her head out of the curtain and looked at the scenery of the suburbs excitedly.

Xu lingying had always thought that he was out to play.

Xu Qi ‘an found her annoying and pointed at the outline of Yun Lu Academy in the distance. “Do you know where that place is?”

“I don’t know, big brother.” Xu Ling chuckled, her round face like an Apple.

“That’s second brother’s Academy.” Xu Qi ‘an said.

The word “Academy” made Xu lingying alert. She looked at her brother.

Xu Qi ‘an nodded. we’re going to send you to school. You’re not allowed to go home anymore.

The smile on Xu lingying’s face slowly disappeared, and she looked at her brother in a daze.

She quietly shrank back into the car, and a few seconds later, there was a loud cry.

mother, I don’t want to go to the academy. I don’t want to study. Aoooooooooooooooooooooo …

“You’re so noisy. Your big brother is lying to you.”

“Why would big brother lie to me?”

“Because he’s a bastard.”

Xu Qi ‘an’s mood was lifted.

When they arrived at the foot of the mountain, Xu Qi ‘an and Xu cijiu went to visit Zhang Shen. However, the person who welcomed them was the great scholar, li Mubai.

“Where’s the teacher?” Xu cijiu asked.

“He’s in closed-door cultivation.” Li Mubai glanced at Xu Qi ‘an and said, “”I’ve already had someone arrange a courtyard.”

thank you, ” Xu Ci said. my sister is still in the Enlightenment stage. Can you allow her to study in the Academy for a while? ”

This request was not too much. If Xu lingyue wanted to study, the Academy would definitely reject her. However, Xu lingying was only a five-year-old child. In this era, scholars did not reject the idea of teaching children. They even advocated such a thing.

It was just that children from ordinary families could not afford to study.

Li Mubai nodded in agreement.

……

Two days passed by in a hurry. In the early morning, Xu cijiu, who was busy entertaining his classmates, second uncle Xu, who was inquiring about news, and Xu Qi ‘an, who had not been to the bar to listen to music for three days, gathered in the study.

Lu ‘e had already accompanied them to Yun Lu Academy. None of the three men were willing to do the task of serving tea.

For the first time, they gathered all the information they had collected and planned to make a plan to deal with Zhou Li.
