Chapter 303： Come for good luck

Chapter 303: Here for good luck

When Zhang Yuniang heard this, she suddenly felt sad and held her daughter in her arms.

Niuniu didn't cry, but Zhang Yunniang's tears were streaming down her face.

"My daughter, who has finally gained weight, must be sent to that place?" Zhang Yunniang cried.

Gu Mingda held his wife's hand and comforted him: "It's just a saying now, but it may not be true. Maybe there is room for change."

Having said that, Gu Mingda felt that it was basically impossible. Now it only depends on how the palace arranges it.

Zhang Yunniang also knew that the end was lost and nodded helplessly.

Niu Niu raised her little face and said, "Don't worry, parents. Even if I stay somewhere else for a year and a half, you are still the best parents in my heart. Niu Niu will always think of you in my heart."

When Zhang Yuniang heard this, the tears she had just stopped started to burst out again.

When the carriage returned to Gu's house, Mrs. Gu had been waiting in the main room. She was startled when she saw Zhang Yunniang's red eyes.

"Okay, what's going on? Someone is bullying Yun Niang? Someone from the Xianguo Palace? They bullied people too much. I'm going to find an explanation from them!" Mrs. Gu jumped up anxiously.

Although the old lady did not dare to attend the banquet at Duke Xianguo's mansion, she couldn't hold it back anymore and now her temper was rising. She was about to go out with a broom in hand.

Gu Mingda hurriedly stopped her and said helplessly: "Mom, you are really hot-tempered. It has nothing to do with Duke Xian's palace."

When Mrs. Gu heard this, her shoulders relaxed, but she did not put down the broom in her hand. Instead, she continued to ask, "Who bullied her? I'm here to ask for an explanation!"

Xie Xingchuan, who was wearing a mask on the side, did not speak, but kept looking at Zhang Yunniang with concern. He picked up the spear and put it down several times.

After all, what the eldest princess said has not been settled, and Gu Mingda did not dare to leak the news. At this time, he turned to look at Zhang Yunniang.

We have been husband and wife for many years and have a tacit understanding. Zhang Yuniang stretched out her hand to wipe away her tears and said, "Mom, I was watching the Duke Xian's palace setting up a wine celebration. There was a man at the table who looked very much like my father. If he were still alive, I would see him. I don’t know how happy my husband is to be so successful now..."

Only then did Mrs. Gu put down the broom completely and said, "It's not just that I was bullied. It turns out that I miss my natal father. Your father is a good man, but it's a pity that he is in poor health."

Zhang Yuniang nodded lightly. When her father was alive, she could barely eat enough. After her father died, her stepmother wished she could only eat one bite a day.

She lowered her head and glanced at Niu Niu. Both mother and daughter had been tortured by Mrs. Cai. Looking back now, she felt that the past was like a dream.

At that time, I never thought that my husband would be the top scorer in high school and the whole family would move to the capital.

The days have been moving forward, and Zhang Yuniang has forgotten to think about these changes in her busy schedule. Now that she thinks about it carefully, it seems that such a big change in her family started with the adoption of Niu Niu.

Zhang Yuniang looked at her little lucky star and thought that if her daughter really went to the palace to attract good fortune, if something happened, she would risk her life to save her daughter.

Xie Xingchuan was on the sidelines, watching the Gu family mention Zhang Yun's mother's dead father. He didn't know who that person was, and he suddenly felt like he was away from home.

Suddenly he felt a warm touch on his hand.

As soon as he lowered his head, he saw the little girl coming to his side without knowing when, staring at him with a pair of wet eyes.

"Thank you, brother, can you teach me how to dance the spear?" Niu Niu asked softly.

Xie Xingchuan immediately became energetic and said, "I'll take you to the yard."

Zhang Yuniang, who was talking to other family members, turned around and saw the figure of a large family and a small child walking out hand in hand. She didn't know why, but when she saw this scene, she suddenly felt the urge to cry again.

Gu Mingda noticed his wife's subtle emotional changes and asked warmly: "What's wrong? Are you feeling uncomfortable somewhere?" Zhang Yunniang shook her head and said only: "Seeing the good relationship between their brother and sister makes me happy."

In the yard in the afternoon, the warm spring sun shone through the treetops and spread over the brother and sister.

With bright eyes, Niu Niu raised her little face and said to Xie Xingchuan: "Brother, can you teach me the marksmanship you used to save daddy on the boat that day?"

Encountering water thieves on the way to Beijing, Gu Mingda thought he would definitely die. Xie Xingchuan descended from the sky and shot out a gun like a dragon, saving Gu Mingda from the water bandit's knife.

Niu Niu had heard Gu Mingda say this many times, and her eyes were filled with anticipation.

Xie Xingchuan still had a cold face and said: "You are too weak to learn that set of marksmanship skills now."

Hearing this, Niu Niu lowered her head in disappointment: "Okay, I'll learn something else."

Xie Xingchuan's eyes narrowed slightly, looking at the originally happy little girl who suddenly looked like a little rapeseed that had been drained of water. After hesitating again and again, he said:

"After I show you this trick once, you have to learn other tricks seriously."

After hearing this, Niu Niu immediately jumped up with joy, clapped her hands and stared at Xie Xingchuan with burning eyes.

Xie Xingchuan stopped raising the corners of his mouth. When he was with Niuniu, he talked more and completely forgot that he used to dislike showing off with guns.

He always felt that guns were used to kill enemies in battle, not for people to watch.

At this time, for the sake of Niu Niu, he threw all his rules behind him.

Xie Xingchuan has been practicing spear since he was a child. Both his father and the martial arts masters praised Xie Xingchuan as a natural talent for practicing spear.

The young man has a strong body and moves with a decisive aura, and the sound of piercing the air can be heard endlessly.

Niuniu was stunned without realizing it.

Not to mention the little girl, even Gu Mingda who heard the sound was mesmerized.

"One breath is like a coherent one, the yin and yang sky are turning around, the passing shadow is like a swimming dragon, and the rustling is like a shooting star."

Gu Mingda couldn't help but read a poem. He looked at Xie Xingchuan's figure opening and closing like a startling dragon. He felt itchy in his hands and asked his wife for help, setting up the paintbrushes on the stone table nearby.

At this time, in the palace, the eldest princess was bowing to the queen mother.

Before her daughter could bend down, the Queen Mother helped her up.

The Queen Mother said casually: "Why did you enter the palace in the afternoon? I didn't bring Ling'er and Changfeng in. I haven't seen the two children in a long time."

The eldest princess was not restrained towards her mother: "You can only see them, and you can hardly see me."

The Queen Mother smiled helplessly and said: "You are so old, but you are still jealous of your two children. The Ai family only has these two good grandchildren, why shouldn't the Ai family be worried about them?"

When the eldest princess heard this, she immediately stepped back and said, "Mother, I am anxious to enter the palace this afternoon. What I want to tell you is related to the emperor's brother's heir."

After the Queen Mother listened carefully to the cause and effect, her face was not as happy as the eldest princess expected, but she said:

"How could it really be that effective? The Li family also sent several little girls into the palace in the past, saying they could recruit children. However, after raising them for several years, there was still no sound in the harem. I'm afraid they are the kind of people who take care of their children again. Make a raft and hope for good luck."

"One breath is like a coherent one" comes from Zheng Shiyuan's "The Art of Observing Spears", and "Sursing like a shooting star" comes from Li Bai's "Xia Ke Xing"
