Chapter 190: Seeking Skin with the Tiger

Yan Xi's tone was casual, as if he really didn't take it to heart, Xiao Jiu stared at him for a while, and suddenly said, "Yan Xi, I'm fine......"

It stands to reason that Yan Xi has to deal with the follow-up matters now, otherwise he will also be in charge of the overall situation by the garrison, who would have thought that he would go home and hug his daughter-in-law and prepare to sleep?

"What are you talking about, aren't you sleepy?" Yan Xi's eyes flashed slightly, and he patted Xiao Jiu's back softly, and said softly: "Sleep." Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 ļ½‰ļ½Žļ½†ļ½ā€

Xiao Jiu squinted his eyes and yawned, and didn't say anything else, and fell asleep with Yanxi in his arms.

Yan Xi gently patted Xiao Jiu's back, and after she heard the sound of steady breathing, she gradually stopped the movements of her hands, closed her eyes and fell asleep.

On the morning of the first day of the Lunar New Year, Xiao Jiu was woken up by the sound of firecrackers.

"My God, I'm so sleepy, why did you fire a cannon early in the morning......" Xiao Jiu buried his head in the pillow, muttered a little irritably, fluttered twice, and wanted to continue sleeping.

It's just that the stomach is not very powerful, and he sings about the empty city plan.

"I'm hungry. Xiao Jiu touched his stomach, squinted his eyes that couldn't be opened, yawned and hugged Yanxi's waist, and asked in a low voice, "Why haven't you gotten up yet?"

"There is nothing to do, I am sleeping well with my wife. "Yanxi's spirit is good, but it's rare to be lazy.

"Well, I didn't go to bed until midnight yesterday, and now I'm woken up early by the sound of firecrackers, and my head hurts. ā€

Xiao Jiu has been in ancient times for so long, and it is the first time that he has not had enough sleep, and his brain is dizzy.

"If you want to sleep, you can sleep, and your father will accompany you. ā€

"Hmm......"

Xiao Jiu didn't plan to get up, but after getting Yanxi's assurance, he fell asleep very relieved.

Su Ci and the old lady also slept late yesterday, so naturally they didn't get up, only Xiao Chen went to bed early, and he had already woken up at this time.

It's just that when I heard that the Bai clan was attacking the city last night, my eyes widened, and I looked surprised, and I had more regrets.

The elders didn't get up, Xiao Chen only used some snacks and consciously went to the study to study.

And in Licheng, although the Bai people attacked the city last night, it was very dangerous, but the people seemed to have seen it for a long time.

Although the streets are deserted, every house is very lively and festive.

Xiao Jiu slept until the hour before getting up, and he was even more hungry.

The old lady got up a little earlier, and she had already eaten, and when the husband and wife went to the flower hall, they saw that Mrs. Xiao wrapped a red envelope for Xiao Chen, and she was pressing the New Year's money.

Seeing this, Xiao Jiu also hurriedly took out the red envelope that had been prepared from his sleeve, and put two silver peanuts in it.

"Oh, New Year's money. ā€

Xiao Jiu originally wanted to put a few golden melon seeds, but he was afraid that the old lady would know about her, so he replaced them with silver peanuts.

Xiao Chen accepted Xiao Jiu's red envelope and apologized with a smile: "Thank you, sister." ā€

Yan Xi also handed over his red envelope and said solemnly: "Don't slack off in the new year." ā€

"Yes, Ah Chen understands. Xiao Chen's face also became a little more serious.

Xiao Chen is also the youngest child in the family, so he naturally got the New Year's money of four adults, Xiao Jiu looked a little red-eyed, but he also knew that he was already married, and he could only be a boy with scattered wealth.

After breakfast, Xiao Jiu touched his stomach and drank tea in a small sip, and asked in a low voice, "How was last night?"

This is a matter of asking the garrison.

"The Bai people couldn't attack Licheng for a long time, and then they were killed by the commander, their morale was low, and the team that attacked the garrison was also affected to some extent, and it was only a matter of time, at dawn, Mo Yi had already beaten people back. ā€

Last night, the Bai clan was defeated, and the news was sent to Yan Xi.

Xiao Jiu nodded, and didn't ask anything else, as long as he didn't lose to the Bai clan.

However, Su Ci was a little curious, and asked a few more questions, Xiao Jiu listened on the side, and suddenly remembered that she didn't get the sunset bow back last night.

"Did I get back the bow I used yesterday?"

"Twelve has been sent back, and now it is in the storehouse, and if you want to use it in the future, you can go to the storehouse and get it. ā€

That sunset bow has been in place for thirty years, and now it has finally seen the light of day, which is also a good thing.

"yes, got it. Xiao Jiu nodded perfunctorily, she was not very interested in bows and arrows, although they were not as convenient as other weapons, they were also good in their own way.

Su Ci naturally knew about the Sunset Bow, but he didn't expect Yan Xi to ask for it from Emperor Qiandi and give it to Xiao Jiu, so he didn't have to bother anymore, Su Mo's piece of meteorite only needed to make a long sword for Xiao Jiu.

The Bai tribe suddenly attacked, and there were a lot of follow-up things, and after Yan Xi sat for a while, he went to the garrison camp.

Xiao Jiu accompanied the old lady Su Ci to talk, and felt sleepy again, so he went back to the house to sleep.

When I woke up, it was already afternoon.

Looking at the sky outside, Xiao Jiu himself was startled, he didn't expect to sleep for so long.

After a simple wash, Xiao Jiu went to find the old lady with a hand stove and met Su Ci at the gate of the main courtyard.

Su Ci looked at her sister's sleepy eyes, and asked softly, "Just got up?"

Xiao Jiu nodded and yawned, "It feels like I've slept too much, and this will have little strength." ā€

"Let's go to the study first, my brother has something to tell you. ā€

"Good. ā€

Xiao Jiu went to the study with Su Ci, and the two brothers and sisters sat opposite each other.

Su Ci poured a cup of hot tea for Xiao Jiu to drink, and said unhurriedly: "I received the news from the capital, it may not be good news." ā€

"Huh?" Xiao Jiu took a sip of tea lightly, raised his eyebrows and glanced at Su Ci, his eyes slightly puzzled.

"What you asked my brother to do, it didn't work. Su Ci said lightly: "The letter has not been delivered to the capital yet, and something has happened to Mrs. Liang." ā€

"What did Xiao Qianqian do?" Xiao Jiu was a little surprised.

"Xiao Qianqian wanted to climb up with the girl of the Liang family, but Mrs. Liang saw her mind and took her to the temple, but on the way back to the house, she met Nangong Xue......"

"So that idiot was tricked by Nangong Xue and let Nangong Xue know, she is the sister-in-law of the general's wife?" Xiao Jiu's face was slightly cold.

Su Ci nodded, and the matter was not far from what Su Jiu said.

Nangong Xue is now a member of the Five Princes, and she naturally wants to win over Yan Xi, so she is self-righteous and befriended Xiao Qianqian. ā€

This is a nest of snakes and rats, and the two of them can talk about it.

Xiao Jiu didn't expect things to develop too fast, and he didn't have time to arrange anything, although the news was just delivered, it was also delayed a lot on the way.

If Xiao Qianqian is good friends with Nangong Xue, I am afraid that sooner or later she will reveal her identity as the daughter of the Suguo Mansion.

"Even so, don't pay attention to it anymore, Xiao Qianqian wants to seek skin with the tiger, then let her go, don't bleed, where will she know that it hurts?"

Xiao Jiu didn't have a good impression of the people in the big house at all, and now that he was involved in these things, he didn't even bother to listen to it anymore.
