In ancient times, she gave birth to seven daughters and was divorced by her husband's family.

Chapter 187: Liangzhou Prefecture was defeated and retreated to Huai County

Su Jinyu is good in every way. He is smart, motivated, responsible, self-reliant, sensible, obedient, and gentle... If such a good child becomes an official in the future, he will definitely be a good official who speaks up for the people.

Bai Lu felt that this child was very righteous and very hardworking.

This child is good in every way and has no shortcomings at all. His mother has taught him very well.

And on this day a year later, Bai Lu also had a very strange dream.

She dreamed of a woman with a peaceful face and raised eyebrows, smiling at her. She put Su Jinyu's hand in hers and said to her, "Lady Bai, thank you for your hard work."

"I leave my son to you."

"..."

Bai Lu was stunned for a moment, then she woke up.

This dream was quite ordinary.

It's just that my heart is beating a little fast.

Suddenly, the candle flame next to him flickered, as if the wind was strong and blew the candle flame away.

This scene is a bit scary.

"!!!"

Bai Lu rubbed her head and was shocked.

I disdain the concept of ghosts and gods, especially after I have a system, I believe in nothing even less.

But sometimes... maybe you should really believe it.

It would be great if Su Jinyu’s mother was really still around.

Bai Lu really hopes that Su Jinyu's mother still has some consciousness, so that she can accompany Su Jinyu all the time.

But after thinking about it carefully, Bai Lu didn't want the boy's mother to still have any consciousness. If she knew that her son was now driven out by his father, how sad would Su's mother be.

Maybe I was just imagining things, or maybe I was dreaming, but anyway, I had this dream.

Bai Lu simply told Su Jinyu about this dream and told him.

"Your mother has completely entrusted you to me. You must listen to me and take a rest when you need to! Eat more when you need to eat more!"

"If you don't listen to me, I'll let your mother take you away, do you hear me?!"

"!!!"

When Su Jinyu heard this, he was shocked and spoke quickly while pouting.

"My mother will never take me away. She loves me the most."

"She would definitely want me to live well."

"When my mother died, she told me to live well. If my father finds a stepmother who doesn't like me, she should let me live well on my own. She won't take me away."

Bai Lu rubbed his little head with a smile.

"Then you have to listen to White Lady!"

"Yeah, I'll definitely listen to you."

He nodded quickly, fearing that his mother would take him away.

It seemed like he was a little scared.

But he still mustered up the courage to continue: "Does the mother still miss my mother? Does she ask me any questions about me?"

"Did she ask me...how I am doing now? Did she ask me if I have grown taller? If I have gained weight? If I study hard?!"

He looked at Bai Lu expectantly.

Bai Lu was stunned, her eyes a little dazed.

She said to Su Jinyu with a smile.

"Of course, your mother kept questioning me for hours."

"Oh, that dream made me so tired that my mouth became dry when I told her."

"Your mother is always thinking about you. I told her that you have grown taller, gained weight, and studied hard."

"She said she felt relieved because she knew her son was an extremely smart and sensible child!"

Su Jinyu smiled.

As he laughed, he gradually started to cry.

"Wuwuwu...I will never embarrass my mother."

"I must work hard, I must study hard, and I must live well."

"Mother, rest assured in your grave."

Bai Lu touched Su Jinyu's head, a trace of relief flashed across her eyes. This child is teachable.

Su Jinyu really studied harder after that and didn't care about other things. For example, the rich businessman Su gave birth to a little brother for Su Jinyu. Bai Lu originally thought that he would be angry, but he just ignored the matter.

Little Su Jinyu doesn't want to care about these messy things. He just wants to study hard and have a bright future, so that he can repay White Snake and let his mother rest in peace.

He is a very good child and everyone likes him very much. Bai Lu also gradually regards him as half her own son. In her heart, his status is no different from Leng Bingnian.

As the days passed, the war on the front line became more and more intense.

In the past few days, Bai Lu has not received any letters from the three brothers of the Bai family, which makes Bai Lu feel a little worried.

You know, these days, she has been receiving letters from the three brothers of the Bai family. Whether the three brothers of the Bai family are doing well or not in Liangzhou Prefecture... they will send her letters and tell her.

Bai Lu I haven't received any letter from Bai Qingze for half a month.

Lin Zanghai had never sent her any letters, so Bai Lu didn't know what was going on over there...

The war situation on the front line is tense, and food has become more expensive recently. The people of Liangzhou Prefecture are complaining a lot.

Even when I was walking on the street, I could occasionally hear the complaints of the people here.

"It is us ordinary people who suffer in the battles on the front lines!"

"Alas, what are we fighting for every day? Enough of these rebels in Liangzhou Prefecture! They want us to pay more grain and 10% more tax than usual."

"And if we don't pay enough grain, we'll be fined three times as much next year! That's too much!"

"Really... With such heavy taxes, how can we ordinary people survive?!"

Because there is relatively little food in Liangzhou Prefecture, the soldiers do not have enough food, and it is also cold here, so they are not well fed and not warmly clothed...so this time King Cheng and his men have to collect a lot of taxes, and they have exploited the people a lot.

Let's put it this way, Bai Lu feels that, based on her experience of traveling back from the modern era and studying history, if these people continue to be exploited like this, even if King Cheng and his men succeed in their rebellion, these common people will still revolt.

In short, this is absolutely not acceptable. They probably won't be able to get away with it for long. Soon, the imperial court will be able to wipe them out. Otherwise, the people will revolt and suppress King Cheng and his men.

Bai Lu was not panicking anyway. After all, she had a backer. She was protected by the three brothers of the Bai family. It didn't matter whether Cheng Wang fell or not.

If King Cheng's uprising was truly successful, she would be his lackey.

If King Cheng's uprising failed, the three brothers of the Bai family would protect him. Soon, within half a month at the front, news came that the army of Liangzhou Prefecture had been defeated.

They retreated and prepared to set up camp near Huai County.
