“What’s the use of saying this now? Father, why don’t you teach me what else to do? How did you get along with my mother back then?”

Xu Maoping laughed disdainfully. “Your mother is much easier to deal with than Bai Xianyu. I just got someone to push her into the water and then came to save the damsel in distress. I carried her wet body ashore. Everyone saw. Other than marrying me, who else could she marry?”

His tone was smug and he did not feel ashamed at all. Yu Boquan did not feel uncomfortable at all.

“Then how did Grandmother agree? If I manage to deal with Bai Xianyu, how do I deal with her brother?”

Yu Boquan frowned and asked.

“Why are you as stupid as your mother? Have you not learned anything from your father?”

Xu Maoping said coldly, “Didn’t 1 make myself clear just now? If you ruin her innocence in public, not to mention her brother, even if her brother is a prince, he has to accept it. Back then, in order to salvage your mother’s reputation, Old Madam took the initiative to let me marry her. To the public, she said that your mother and I were already engaged, so she did not have to avoid arousing suspicion. If not for that, your mother’s reputation would have long been ruined.”

“If I hadn’t seized the opportunity, 1 might still be plowing in the countryside now, but I’m standing here in luxury.” He said smugly, “The Kingdom-Stabilizing General’s Manor are my relatives. No one dares to look down on me.”

“If you seize the opportunity, you can rise to the top!”

Yu Boquan’s heart skipped a beat. “I understand, Father. Let me think about what else I can do!”

Bai Xianyu had been in the Yu Residence for almost half a month because Yu Boquan fell into the water and fell sick on the first day. Although Yu Fengyan and Old Madam often came to see her, they were not in the mood to go out, so she did not go out.

After that, she suffered from insomnia for a long time. She wanted to settle the matter of the death warriors first, but she was in low spirits.

Now that he had slept enough, Bai Xianyu was ready to take action.

Just as she walked out of the courtyard, she saw Yu Fengyan and the old lady walking over. Behind the two of them were a few maidservants holding many things in their hands, which looked like tonics.

“Xianyu, where are you going?”

Bai Xianyu smiled. “I’m just wandering around.”

“It’s our fault for our poor hospitality.” Yu Fengyan sighed. “Don’t take offense.”

“You’re too kind, Aunt.”

Old Madam held Bai Xianyu’s hands and gave instructions to those behind, “The few of you, send in the things for my Xianyu.”

“Yes.”

“Xianyu, I know that you’ve seen the world and have eaten all kinds of delicacies. These are my private stash of tonics which I’ve kept away for many years. I heard from the physician that you’ve been having heartache and insomnia these few days, but 1 can’t take out anything better. Go and get someone to stew them and eat some.”

Bai Xianyu frowned slightly. “Grandmother’s health is more important. How can Xianyu take these?”

“Xianyu, please accept them. It is Mother’s good intentions. As elders and two women, the furthest we’ve walked was from the east to the west of the city of Liang Province. We had not gone to even visit you. We are already feeling guilty in our hearts. If you don’t accept them, I’m afraid Mother won’t be able to sleep or eat in peace.”

With Yu Fengyan and Old Madam’s words, Bai Xianyu could only accept them.

As the three of them spoke, they left the courtyard and took a walk in the Yu Residence.

The maidservants quickly put away the tonics for calming the mind and some precious herbs.

The group left Bai Xianyu’s room and went to do their own things.

One of the maidservants sneaked into Yu Boquan’s room.

As soon as she entered, Yu Boquan smiled lewdly and began to tug at her clothes.

“Have you put everything away?”

“It’s… it’s ready!”

“Did anyone notice?”

The two of them were facing each other in the bare. The maidservant pretended to reject him and replied, “No.”

“Alright! After I marry her, I’ll definitely take you as my concubine!”

The maidservant smiled charmingly and quickly rolled with him.

The three of them chatted until after lunch.

After lunch, Bai Xianyu told Yu Fengyan that he wanted to go to Liang Province to take a look. Yu Fengyan smiled and nodded.

As the master who taught those youths was Bai Li’s master, Bai Li knew that Bai Xianyu was raising sacrificial soldiers. He did not ask further and looked for quite a few places according to Bai Xianyu’s instructions.

The Liang Province city was not as prosperous as the capital. In addition, there had been locust plagues and floods over the years. On the way, they could see many middlemen and the young men and women who were selling themselves.

As Bai Xianyu rode the carriage out of the city, she took away a few 13 or 14-year-old youths and a 12-year-old girl.

The young man was chosen by Bai Li. He was a martial artist and could tell which ones were good seedlings, but the young girl was chosen by Bai Xianyu. She was thin and small, almost as thin as a bamboo pole.

“Miss, that girl’s body is too weak. She might not be able to train.”

Bai Xianyu smiled slightly. “It’s fine even if she can’t cultivate. Take good care of her. I think her eyes are very beautiful. She’ll definitely be a blessed person in the future. Just treat it as a blessing for them.”

“She is such a young girl and she has already lost her parents. She is so thin and small. It seems that she cannot do any work. If not one wants to take her away, she may starve to death.

Bai Li nodded.

Six hours later, the carriage arrived at the foot of a desolate mountain. This place was already desolate, but after Bai Li’s inspection, it was also far from human habitation. Even the sound of swords and sabers could be muffled by the surrounding trees.

“Miss, if you think it’s fine, I’ll buy this mountain, along with the mansion above.”

Bai Xianyu took a look. “Sure. Is this water connected to the sea outside?”

“Yes, indeed.”

Bai Xianyu was even more satisfied. Her red lips curled up slightly. “Then bring a few guards to tidy up this place before arranging for someone to train them..”
