The useless second daughter of the Hua family

Chapter 44 Xiaoyu gets into trouble

After hearing this story, Hua Miaomiao had a bold guess in her mind. Just as she was about to say it, she felt Ge Qinglan tapping the back of her hand under her sleeve, hinting at something.

It seems that Ge Qinglan shares the same idea as her, but just doesn't want her to say it out loud.

This place is remote and out of touch with the news. The woman who waited for her husband to return might have really thought that her husband had met with an accident. She didn't know that in the capital, thousands of miles away, the man won the first prize and became a favorite of the emperor. Not only was he promoted to the first rank, he also married the adopted daughter of the previous emperor, the only princess in our dynasty who settled in the capital. He lived a life of calling the shots and enjoying unlimited glory, and might have long forgotten the hard-working mother and daughter.

Hua Miaomiao felt very aggrieved. She felt sorry for Chen's mother and daughter, but she didn't dare to tell her, for fear that she couldn't bear it. Fate was too unfair to this woman.

At this time, lightning and thunder began to flash outside, and heavy rain began to fall.

Xiuzhu looked at Xiaoyu in the rain and reminded Ge Qinglan, "Black Dog Blood won't last much longer. Have you thought of any backup plan?"

Ge Qinglan was still thinking when he saw Hua Miaomiao walking straight out the door. He pulled her back and asked, "What are you doing? Are you possessed too?"

"I'll go talk to him." Hua Miaomiao exuded a strong aura. Ge Qinglan was intimidated by her and let go of her hand for a moment.

She walked into the rain with a frosty face, went straight to "Xiao Yu", opened her thin lips and said something to her.

The black dog blood on Xiaoyu's body was finally washed away. Seeing that she began to move slightly, Ge Qinglan came to his senses. He rushed forward quickly, pulled Hua Miaomiao into his arms, turned around and protected her tightly.

Xiaoyu looked at everything in front of her in confusion. She called out "Miss" faintly, then she became exhausted and fainted on the ground.

Unexpectedly, the incident stopped there and there was no follow-up. After a few days of observation, no more strange things happened in the Lin family. Niu Niu's illness was cured. She followed Pi Fu all day long, and Pi Fu was happy to take her out to play. Lin Yicheng and Chen had a heart-to-heart talk all night. The two let go of their past grudges and their relationship became stronger. They decided to take Niu Niu away and start a new life.

The only two who were not doing well were Zhao Xiaowu and Xiaoyu. They both fell seriously ill after this incident. Pi Fu teased that Qian Ning was holding a grudge because he must have heard the two of them talking about him behind his back.

They didn’t know that far away in the capital, in the Prime Minister’s Mansion, a major event had taken place.

When Xiaoyu and Zhao Xiaowu were almost recovered, Lin Yichen and his family had packed up and were ready to leave.

Before leaving, Pi Fu gave Niu Niu a blessing of peace. If she were in danger, she could tear it off and it would turn into a spirit butterfly to find them. Niu Niu held onto her legs and refused to let go, but was eventually forcibly taken away by her father.

In the carriage, Hua Miaomiao joked, "I didn't realize you like children so much. Why don't you give birth to one yourself?"

Pi Fu rolled her eyes at her, then raised the corner of her mouth and said, "You two should have a little girl soon. I promise to treat her better than anyone else."

Hua Miaomiao failed to tease and ended up blushing. She snorted, proudly shook off Pi Fu's hand, and sat aside sulking.

Ge Qinglan found it funny to hear this outside the carriage. Miaomiao was becoming more and more childish as she was spoiled, which was what he liked to see.

Zhao Xiaowu and Xiaoyu had just recovered from a serious illness, so Ge ​​Qinglan simply placed them in the same carriage and asked Xiuzhu to take care of them. He drove Hua Miaomiao's carriage and heard a lot of interesting things along the way.

After nearly half a month's drive, they finally arrived at the farthest point of this trip, a small border town at the edge of our country. The Ge family has a branch here, mainly handling trade with neighboring countries.

As for business matters, with Zhao Xiaowu around, Ge Qinglan felt at ease to leave everything to him and took Hua Miaomiao with her to travel around and experience the different customs and practices.

Seeing the sweet love between the second young master and the second young mistress, Zhao Xiaowu had no complaints. Moreover, Ge Qinglan left Xiaoyu to him, under the pretext of learning from him so that she could help Hua Miaomiao manage the business in the future. Xiaoyu came with a mission, so she naturally did not dare to be careless.

When Pi Fu heard this, she laughed and scolded him for being cunning. She had not only sent away a person who was hindering his flirting, but also won over one of her own men.

Ge Qinglan secretly complained, isn't it you, old man, who is the biggest obstacle? Not only are they sticking together during the day, but they also kidnap his Miaomiao at night. If this continues, let alone Xiaohuahua, he will soon become a wife-starving man.

Hua Miaomiao seemed to sense his deep resentment, took his hand and whispered to him: "Don't be unhappy, there is still a lot of time, let's talk about it after we get home, okay?"

The soft whisper made Ge Qinglan's eyes sparkle. Looking at her blushing face, he felt a little distracted. Oh well... never mind. He knew his little wife was shy, so he would just wait.

At nightfall, Zhao Xiaowu and Xiaoyu had not returned to the inn yet. Hua Miaomiao was a little worried and urged Ge Qinglan to go out and look for them.

Ge Qinglan looked calm and explained to everyone with a smile, "It's okay, maybe they finished their business, went to see the mountains and rivers, and talked about life."

Zhao Xiaowu has martial arts experience and Xiaoyu is smart and alert, so they should not be easily captured in this small border town.

Before he could finish his thought, Zhao Xiaowu rushed in. His clothes were covered in dirt, and there was a wound on his head, and he looked very embarrassed.

"Go and save Xiaoyu, she has been kidnapped by a group of mountain people."

Hua Miaomiao became anxious when she heard this, and Ge Qinglan held her hand tightly to comfort her.

"Don't panic, listen to Brother Xiao Wu and let him explain everything."

It turned out that during the day, Zhao Xiaowu took Xiaoyu to the branch to check the accounts, and during the meal, he heard the shopkeeper mention the blessing activity on the West Mountain. Every year on this day, the mountain people would hold a sacrifice to pray for abundant rain in the summer and a good harvest in the autumn.

Xiaoyu was very interested in this. It happened that a shop assistant in the store came from the mountains, and perhaps in order to please the boss, he offered to take them to have a look.

Everything was fine until the sacrifice reached its climax. When they saw the baby lying in the middle of the altar, Xiaoyu couldn't help but speak out to stop them.

The sacrifice was interrupted, and the high priest unhappily asked the mountain people to take the two away and prepared to continue the ceremony.

Zhao Xiaowu had been traveling around the world in his early years, and had heard about the special sacrifices in some places. Although he felt sorry for them, he also felt it was not right to interfere. But Xiaoyu obviously didn't think so. She broke free from the two people who were holding her, and relying on the fact that the mountain people were wary of her, she quickly climbed up the altar and picked up the child.

In the panic of the crowd, no one knew who had knocked over the sacrificial table. The high priest was furious and ordered the arrest of the man, regardless of life or death.

Xiaoyu was surrounded. Zhao Xiaowu wanted to rescue her, but was stopped by the crowd and suffered a lot of injuries.

The guy who brought them here saw that the situation was not good, so he asked him to go out and get help, while he stayed inside to support them.
