The eldest daughter is not easy to bully

Chapter 96 Mind

Ling Qing slept until dawn the next day.

She felt that the house was very quiet today, but the atmosphere was very peaceful.

There is an illusion of returning to Meilin Village.

She lifted the quilt and got up, took the lotus coat on the hanger and put it on her body, and went out with her shoes.

The small courtyard in front of the house has the same scenery, but there are a few more people.Two people were sweeping the floor, two people were scrubbing the corridor, and two people were passing through the courtyard with sundries, large and small.

Their faces are unfamiliar, but their expressions are very serious.

"Girl, you're awake." Zhu Xin came with hot water, turned into the corridor and saw Ling Qing standing at the door, staring blankly at everything in the courtyard.

The workers were all from Nanjiao Alley, they all stopped and saluted Ling Qing with a smile.

The latter was dumbfounded for a moment, and responded with a smile.

Zhu Xin walked over quickly, and said to Ling Qing: "It's cold outside, come in quickly, my maidservant will give you a good freshen up."

Ling Qing entered the house and asked, "Are those alley dwellers from Nanjiao Lane?"

"Yes, they are very clear about what happened last night, and feel guilty that they can't help us." Zhu Xin put down the copper basin, and began to serve Ling Qing to wash up.

"Since yesterday, they have been automatically assigned. Whoever is responsible for cleaning and cleaning, can't stop them."

"Now they are present in all the courtyards in the mansion, and the West Courtyard is no exception. However, Bihua Courtyard doesn't need to take care of it if the servants give orders."

Zhu Xin laughed: "Now even the kitchen is full of people, now the slaves finally don't have to listen to Lan Xin's complaints, and have no time to research new foods."

As Ling Qing listened, the corners of his mouth couldn't stop curling up. This family seemed to have been established.

Zhu Xin glanced at Ling Qing in the bronze mirror, and saw that she was smiling so comfortably, as if she was living in Meilin Village.

Not to mention Ling Qing, Zhu Xin and the others also felt the same way. I only hope that such days will happen every day in the future.

"Girl, Ju Xin prepared several pretty colored skirts before going out today, and one of them was worn by the girl on the day she came back from Meilin Village."

Ling Qing raised her eyebrows. She remembered that she was wearing mint green clothes on the day she came back. Although the clothes were dotted with a few small plum blossoms, they couldn't be called pretty.

This girl must also miss the life in Meilin Village.

"Just wear the little plum blossom one." Ling Qing said.

Zhu Xin smiled from the bottom of her heart: "Yes."

Dress neatly and go to the guest house.

The one who contributed the most yesterday was the witch, and it was Martin who came over.

As soon as Ling Qing left the east courtyard, he met Martin coming over with a bucket in both hands.

"Big girl." Martin yelled with a smile. Afterwards, he realized that he was splashed with water and was impolite, so he hurriedly turned sideways and said
"If the girl has something to ask, let Xiaonu send the water to the east courtyard, and then go back to the guest courtyard to change clothes and come to see the girl, is that okay?"

Ling Qing smiled: "You are busy first, I will go to the Guest House to find the Godmother."

The sorceress is 88 years old this year, and her single name is a divine character. No one knows what her real name is.And she has never been married in her life, and has no relatives or reasons, and she has been either praying for the world or worshiping Buddha.

Martin said that the Godmother was a refugee from the South.Falling off a cliff on the way to escape, I lost my memory, and I still don't remember the past.

Later, I kept praying to gods and Buddhas, and I became a witch without knowing it. It has been 32 years.

When Ling Qing came to the gate of the guest house, he saw the Godmother standing under the big locust tree.

She was wearing a fragrant scarf and leaning on a cane with a friendly smile. The moment she saw Ling Qing, she said, "Girl, you are here."

An ordinary greeting, Ling Qing felt that it was not as simple as it appeared on the surface.

"Come on, the tea is already brewed in the room, waiting for the girl to drink it." The Godmother greeted Ling Qing, and walked back to the room first.

The witch lives in the innermost room of the guest courtyard, and the innermost room is the smallest in the courtyard.

Alleymen went to work in various courtyards early in the morning, so the guest courtyard was very quiet.

But Ling Qing felt that the already quiet guest house seemed to be more peaceful with the presence of a witch.

The layout of the room is the same as the usual guest courtyard, except that there is an additional statue of Guanyin, and incense is burning in the censer.

"When the old woman woke up from amnesia, she saw this Guanyin statue. It has been enshrined by her side ever since."

The mother-in-law said: "Please forgive the old lady for bringing the statue into the mansion without your permission."

After all, the Godmother still wanted to kneel down, but Ling Qing quickly helped her up and said, "It's just a small matter, it's fine. Get up quickly."

The sorceress smiled bitterly: "Don't worry, big girl, the old lady will never let you have trouble."

Ling Qing understands that the statue cannot be moved at will, nor can it be moved into other people's homes at will.

But there are always things like, she can understand.

What's more, they have already moved in, so it's meaningless for her to be late.

If you insist on opposing it, it will be easier to offend the gods and Buddhas.

She is not afraid of death, but afraid of being taken by the sky.

"I'm here to thank Mother God for your help." Ling Qing changed the subject, "If it weren't for you, this matter might not be so easy to solve."

"If there is a cause, there must be an effect. If it ends slowly, it means the incompetence of the people involved in the matter. If it ends quickly, the meaning will be reversed."

The two were polite.

The purpose of Ling Qing's coming here is not only to thank the Godmother, but also for other purposes.

"Grandmother God, you and Grandpa Xin are old acquaintances, right?"

"The eldest girl is talking about Xin Mo?"

Ling Qing nodded: "Yes, it used to be a big family in Nankou Lane."

"The eldest girl wants to ask about the descendants of the army?"

Ling Qing was surprised that the sorceress understood.

Isn't she a refugee from the south?Even if not, in this era, how can there be any reason for women to serve in the army?
The sorceress seemed to see Ling Qing's confusion, and said with a smile: "In all accounts, the old woman is also a member of the army, and divination is the only thing the old woman can do."

"Divination?"

"That's right! Before Mrs. Ling and the others were hesitating whether to seize the land of Ducheng, they were looking for the old woman for divination."

"The hexagram is very auspicious." The sorceress added.

Ling Qing knew that even if it was good luck, something would always be taken away first, or made up later.

The sorceress seemed to have guessed what Ling Qing was thinking, and said again: "If you don't become emperor, the lonely city won't last a hundred years, but old lady Ling still chooses to be the lord of the city."

Ling Qing frowned, but it wasn't just his grandfather who took Ducheng, Old Master Gu didn't care.

But if the old King Xiao agreed to proclaim himself emperor, it would be a mutiny.

"But Ducheng has been standing for a hundred years." Ling Qing said.

"It's just an appearance."

So, Ducheng will definitely be destroyed?
She couldn't help but think of what Ling Chengtian said, the destruction of Ducheng is the beginning of a new round of troubled times.

"Is there a way to resolve it?"

The sorceress shook her head, then nodded again: "Madam, do you want to hear it?"

Ling Qing pursed her lips and finally nodded.

The sorceress didn't hold back, and said straight: "Bury Ducheng, and then rebuild it."

Destroying a city is easy, but building a city is easier said than done.

"However, you must become emperor." The sorceress said calmly, "Otherwise, the result will be a reincarnation of decades."
