If it wasn't for Bai Xian stopping the two, Lan Shi and Shen Yunqing wouldn't have been able to finish this plate. Bai Xian laughed helplessly, not knowing if it was because she was older than the others, but every time she saw the two of them, she treated them like children.
If one were to compare the ages of his previous life with that of his current age, Bai Xian was even older than the Bai’s mother. Therefore, she expressed her deep understanding and tolerance towards the contradictions and entanglement in the Bai’s mother's heart.
Bai Xian recalled the little toy that Lan Shi had in his hand and asked curiously: "Xiao Lan, what was that thing that you had in your hand just now? "You said that it could fire sleeve arrows, right?"
Lan Shi thought about how his Sleeve Arrow had almost missed its target and almost hit Bai Xian's body. He grudgingly took out his Sleeve Arrow and slammed it onto the table, "Ninth Brother told me that he brought this back from the Western Regions. I saw that it was quite exquisite and wanted to bring it over for you to see.
Bai Xian picked up the weapon and looked at it carefully. It looked like a miniature crossbow, but she didn't know much about mechanical things, nor did she know how to improve its accuracy. If it could improve accuracy, it could become a light and easy weapon to carry.
Seeing that Bai Xian was interested, the Bai’s mother took it over casually. Bai Xian only saw the Bai’s mother gently moved a part of the weapon, then raised a hand, and shot out a small arrow. However, she aimed at the door frame, and the small arrow accurately hit the door frame.
Bai Xian and the others were dumbfounded. She never knew that Bai’s mother would actually have such an in-depth understanding of weapons, "Mother, you're so powerful. You actually know how to modify weapons."
In front of Shen Yunqing and Lan Shi, it was hard for Bai’s mother to explain why she changed her weapon. It was only because she was married into the Bai Family that her father taught her how to do nothing else.
Lan Shi held the sleeve arrow that had been corrected by the Bai’s mother, and based on her eyesight, she was unable to see what exactly had changed. However, this did not stop the image of the Bai’s mother in her heart from rising to a new level: "Aunt, you're really too amazing."
Bai Xian watched as Lan Shi and Shen Yunqing played with their arrows in the courtyard. The two of them were more precise than who could shoot the arrows, she pulled on Bai’s mother's hand and laughed: "Mother, you're so awesome, when will daughter become like you?"
Bai’s mother touched Bai Xian's hair, his eyes filled with love and pity: "Xian Er, you are already very powerful, to be able to help the general win the battle, and even go back home to find me, mother is not as strong as you are."
Bai Xian felt that since the Bai’s mother could transform weapons, they might be able to make them too. Maybe the Bai’s mother could help the Shao Jiajia do something to increase their bargaining power, as she still wanted to borrow the Shao Family's power to do something: "Mother, other than modifying weapons, do you know how to design weapons?"
Bai’s mother hesitated, these things were all taught to her by her father ten years ago, and what he taught her were all theories. In such a strict environment at that time, she did not have the chance to do actual operations, and did not know if she could succeed or not, "Although I have learnt them, but I do not know if I can succeed.
Bai Xian knew that the Bai’s mother was worried that her skills were not good enough and immediately expressed: "Mother, don't worry, I will find someone who can cooperate with you, you can be at ease and go and do it boldly."
During dinner, she told Lv Ying about how the Bai’s mother would modify its weapons, and Lv Ying paid great attention to it. Bai Xian had a different temperament compared to the other Bai’s mother, and she was different from the other village girls. That night, when he went to the Shao Mansion to report to Shao Yue about the matter, he told him about it, causing Shao Yue to be pleasantly surprised and a little worried.
He told Lv Ying, "Ying, I'll go to the Manor tomorrow morning. When the time comes, tell everyone not to appear in Xin's courtyard, I want to have a good talk with Bai Xian."
accepted the order and left, leaving Shao Yue sitting at the table, pondering. Today, he was eating at the same table as Bai’s mother, so he did not see the true face of the Bai’s mother. Thinking back to Bai Xian's cleverness, Shao Yue started to suspect, could it be that from the time he met Bai Xian to the time he brought Bai Xian back to the Luo City, someone had set up a trap?
Maybe someone had found out that he had a close relationship with the crown prince, so in order to bring down the crown prince, they decided to first destroy him, a general? Then why was this woman called Bai Xian as well? Was she simply giving her name or did they already find out where she lived in the countryside?
Many questions lingered in Shao Yue's mind, he was truly troubled, maybe many young masters of the Humble Class thought that being born in a noble's house was a huge fortune, only he himself knew how much suffering there was, the Shao Family s were all martial artists, their rules and thoughts were not as many as the other famous families, but even so, Shao Yue felt that it was not right to be born in a noble's house.
In this place that he had grown up in, Shao Yue didn't even dare to shout loudly, as he breathed freely. Only on the battlefield, in the fields, could he truly be himself and live the life he wanted to be in.
Shao Yue, who had already made up his mind, forced himself to sleep. Whether or not Bai Xian and the others were spies sent by the enemies, he would find out tomorrow morning.
who was making snacks in the afternoon couldn't stand the smell of the oil on his body, so he asked Lan Shi for a pail of water for a bath. Lan Shi even specifically gave him a box of his special Hundred Blossom Essences so that she could drip it into the water when she showered.
Bai Xian quickly washed her hair. As she was lying on the bed, looking at the moonlight, she did not know that tomorrow, she would encounter a big surprise, or perhaps a big shock.
The next morning, after Bai Xian and Shen Yunqing accompanied the Bai’s mother to eat breakfast, she went back to her room. Recently, Bai Xian had been obsessed with embroidery, but as someone who had never received any training from the ancients, she felt that embroidery was really too difficult.
She had just changed into a new color and was holding onto a needle, hesitating on where to start. Shao Yue's voice sounded together with a knock on the door: "Bai Xian, it's me, Shao Yue.
Bai Xian quickly placed the needle and thread in his hand to the side, then walked to the door and opened it: General, is there anything I can help you with?
Shao Yue walked in with a natural expression on her face. Bai Xian thought for a while, but didn't close the door, and instead allowed the door to be opened, so that even if others saw it, they would not gossip. However, she had forgotten that this was Shao Yue's residence.
Bai Xian looked at Shao Yue: "General, what business do you have today?"
Shao Yue looked at Bai Xian. If it wasn't for the fact that her face looked different from the Bai Xian he knew, he might have really used her as a substitute. "Bai Xian, why did you leave the Shao Mansion alone after I left earlier?"
