I haven't seen Yue'er for a while, and Yue'er doesn't even recognize her. Only those who have been mothers know this heartbreaking feeling.
Gu Qingying stretched out her hand, but Yue'er avoided it.
Yue'er, who is already one year old, knows how to recognize people and has been raised by the Shen family during this period.
Jiang Cancan said softly: "Yue'er, this is my mother!"
Gu Qingying coaxed: "Yue'er."
Yue'er was very familiar with Gu Qingying's voice. After hearing Gu Qingying's cry, she turned back and stared at Gu Qingying with her big curious eyes.
When Gu Qingying stretched out his hand again, Yue'er stretched out her hand and was instantly hugged by Gu Qingying.
The moment she hugged Yue'er, Gu Qingying's whole heart was filled.
Yue'er was only nine months old when she left, and her trip was delayed for more than three months.
Yue'er leaned obediently in Gu Qingying's arms, neither crying nor fussing.
Lu Qingying also liked to hold Yue'er like this, she was cute and cute, and holding her was like holding the whole world.
Jiang Cancan said: "I'm just saying that there are children who don't know their mother. After all, we haven't seen each other for a few months. It's enough to become familiar with her. Look at how much Yue'er clings to you."
Gu Qingying gently rubbed Yue'er's head and said, "She is the one I miss most at the border."
Mrs. Shen and Mrs. Shen helped each other into the house.
The moment Mrs. Shen saw Gu Qingying, she finally felt at ease: "You are finally back. I burn incense and pray to Buddha every day, hoping that you will be safe."
Mrs. Shen, who had never believed in fasting and chanting Buddha's name, started to believe in fasting and chanting Buddha's name because of Gu Qingying's departure.
Gu Qingying stood up with Yue'er in her arms.
Mrs. Shen quickly said: "Sit down quickly, there is no need to stand up."
Gu Qingying hugged Yue'er and sat down again.
Mrs. Shen and Mr. Shen sat on the chairs at the main table. They looked at Gu Qingying up and down, and said with distress: "Look, you have become so dark."
The biggest change on Gu Qingying's trip this time was that it became darker visible to the naked eye.
She didn't choose to ride a carriage when going to and from the border. She always chose to ride a horse. Although she was protected, she still got tanned due to the sun and rain.
Gu Qingying raised her lips and said with a smile: "Grandma, don't worry, it will be all in vain if you raise her at home. How are your grandparents doing during this time?"
Mr. Shen said in a kind tone: "We are all doing well. We all miss you very much. We heard about some of the things you did at the border. You are really great."
Some news comes back from Yuncheng every once in a while, and they find it incredible when they hear the news.
I never expected that Gu Qingying would be so bold and actually go to rescue Gu Xiao alone. Crucially, he rescued the person and burned down the enemy camp with a fire.
No matter how I think about it, I find it a bit unbelievable.
Although Gu Qingying really rescued Gu Xiao, she was still a little embarrassed to be praised like this: "At that time, I didn't think too much about saving my brother. It was quite dangerous when I rescued him. He was tortured by Wanyan Lie for a month.
By that time, he was almost dying, and I was lucky. He fainted when I rescued him, and he was so angry that he set fire to the food and grass."
At first I really couldn't allow her to think too much.
Fortunately, everything went smoothly and everything that needed to be done was done.
Shen Congan said: "Tell us how you sneaked in the second time you set fire?"
It feels thrilling just thinking about it.
Gu Qingying thought for a moment and then said: "The second time I sneaked in was the result of a discussion between my father and I. He was fighting on the front line to hold off Wanyan Lie, and I took the opportunity to sneak into the Beiliang Kingdom's camp. You know that I am very skilled in martial arts."
Well, it’s also pretty good at hiding, so…”
After Gu Qingying roughly explained it, the people in the room were shocked to hear it even though they were not present.
I really can't imagine how strong Gu Qingying's psychology is. If it were a man, he wouldn't dare to do such a thing!
Yue'er called out "Mother" at this time
The sudden noise made everyone in the room laugh.
Gu Qingying agreed with "Hey" and said, "Are Yue'er tired from sitting?"
Yue'er stretched out her hand and hooked it around Gu Qingying's neck, and continued to lean on Gu Qingying's arms obediently.
Yue'er's appearance is a combination of Gu Qingying and Li Cangjue. Her eyes, nose and mouth are like Gu Qingying's, but her ears are like Li Cangjue's. She is still too young to tell whose face shape she followed. Her round face is very cute now.
Wen Xiuniang said distressedly: "When you left, Yue'er cried and fussed every night and couldn't sleep. We could only take turns staying with her at night. She's been sleeping much better recently."
Gu Qingying was grateful: "Thank you, four sisters-in-law. I feel relieved to leave the child to you. Thank you."
She dared to leave without hesitation because she knew that the Shen family was reliable and she trusted the Shen family.
When the sisters-in-law looked at Yue'er, the tenderness and love in their eyes could not be faked.
The four of them really treat Yue'er as their own child.
Jiang Cancan knew that Gu Qingying must have something to say to Shen Cong'an and Old Master Shen, so he took the initiative to step forward and said, "Yue'er, can you please go out with me?"
Yue'er shook her head and hugged Gu Qingying's neck tighter.
Gu Qingying said: "It's okay, sister-in-law, just sit down and listen!"
Jiang Cancan is indeed very good at handling people, and Gu Qingying admires this very much.
Gu Qingying looked at Shen Congan and said, "Uncle, has there been anything wrong in Lizhou City recently? When I came back just now, I was stared at by many people, and three people were following me."
She felt that something was wrong with Lizhou City from the inside out.
She wouldn't believe it if nothing happened in the city, unless the other party's methods were too powerful to avoid the sight of the Shen family.
Shen Congan frowned when he paused, and after thinking for a moment, he said, "There is something wrong. Yihonglou opened in the city more than a month ago."
Chen Xiang said: "Apart from the better business, there seems to be nothing wrong with this Yihong Building!"
Lizhou City is not big or small.
Suddenly a Yihonglou opened, which was already big news.
Shen Cong'an continued: "You also know that the Shen family is involved in many, many businesses, covering all aspects, except that they have not opened a brothel. Although the brothel is very profitable, the Shen family does not bother to make such money."
The Shen family's business was very extensive. Gu Qingying didn't know exactly how extensive it was, but she knew that the Shen family's business was very profitable.
"What's wrong with this Yihongyuan? Please tell me carefully."
Shen Cong'an frowned, thought of some bad things, and said: "It is said that every girl in this Yihong Courtyard has special skills, and all the guests who have gone in are praising them, but there is no madam in this Yihong Courtyard."
The more Gu Qingying listened, the more confused she became, but she still didn't understand what was wrong with this matter.
Mr. Shen on the side listened anxiously and said, "You'd better stop talking. I'll explain it to Qingying! You see, you have confused Qingying."
