Mind Reading: Koi Cub brings script to save the whole family

Xu Ning was slightly touched. Her mother was a concubine, she was a concubine's daughter, and her brother was also a concubine's son.

But no matter what time, their mother always puts the affairs of the brothers and sisters first.

She doesn't ask for them to be rich, she just asks for them to be safe.

I guess it’s because of my mother’s past experiences?

Xu Ning remembered that her mother had a handkerchief and she would often take it out to look at it.

The handkerchief was made of very ordinary material, but there was a crescent moon embroidered on it.

Xu Ning guessed that maybe her mother also had someone she knew.

Madam Yu patted her shoulder and said, "Let Chunqiao apply medicine to you. Go to bed early. You can get up later tomorrow."

Xu Ning shook her head: "I also need to send Buddhist scriptures to my elder sister."

Madam Yu waved her hand and said, "I'm here, leave it to me."

Bai Jin was guarding outside the door, while Youyou was leaning on the window, listening to the conversation between the two people inside the house.

"It seems that Madam Yu and her daughter are different from the rest of the Xu family."

Youyou brought Bai Jin here because Madam Yu and her daughter had a bad ending in the original book.

It is not easy to take the reins of the Xu family, and Madam Yu is also walking on thin ice.

The Xu family is at its peak of power. After eliminating the Lu and Su families, Xu Liya takes sole control of the family.

After Xu Shaohua got married, it was handed over to Su Lian.

At that time, Xu Ning was already in her twenties and was hastily married to an official as a concubine.

Later, the official committed a crime and his entire family was exiled. No one knows what happened after that.

Madam Yu was trapped in the backyard and was depressed all day long. After meeting Xu Shaobo and his wife who were sent to work as officials in the backyard, she committed suicide in the backyard.

Xu Shaobo moved away from the capital and became a local county magistrate. He never returned to the capital again.

The stories about these three people are only briefly mentioned.

The Xu family is so prosperous that they don't need them to embellish it.

"Xiao Bai, what do you think about making Madam Yu the final winner?"

Bai Jin asked, "Are you saying that her son Xu Shaobo should take the position?"

Youyou swung his feet: "Xu Shaohua is destined to be a useless person, but the Xu family's huge family business can't be handed over to a woman like Xu Liya. Xu Shaobo is the eldest son of the Xu family. The Xu family members are smart. If Xu Shaobo can be used by us, wouldn't it be more perfect?"

Bai Jin said: "If you want to incite Madam Yu and her son to rebel, you can start with Xu Ning's marriage."

"Madam Yu is not a simple-minded person. Perhaps your idea will come true."

Youyou's eyes became brighter and brighter: "Xiaobai, you are still the best! You support me in everything I do!"

The white tiger's ears trembled, and it was obvious that it was in a good mood because of the praise.

After leaving a note, Youyou took Bai Jin away.

The next morning, Madam Yu finally managed to send Chun Xian, the maidservant beside Xu Liya, away, and then she saw Xu Shaobo coming over with an angry face.

Madam Yu asked curiously, "What happened? Why are you so angry?"

"If your father sees this, he'll say you're not steady."

"Have you had breakfast? If not, wait for your sister."

"Fang Zhi, go and invite the young lady to come and have breakfast together."

Fang Zhi said: "Yes!"

The concubines in the Xu family's backyard, those who gave birth to children each had a courtyard, and those who did not give birth to children all lived in Juchun Garden.

For someone like Madam Yu, she had a small courtyard, Ming Xinyuan, where she and Xu Ning lived, and they didn't have many servants to serve them.

Usually there are only Chunqiao and Fangzhi who serve her personally, and there are also two maids who do daily chores.

After Xu Shaobo got married, he moved to the small courtyard in the east.

The maid served breakfast, and Madam Yu and Xu Shaobo sat down one after another.

Xu Shaobo waved his hand and all the maids left.

He lowered his voice and said, "Mom, do you know what dad has been doing recently?"

Madam Yu thought for a moment and said, "It should be the same as usual, right? It is said that the situation at the border is not very stable recently."

Xu Shaobo continued, "Do you know what your son heard today?"

"what?"

"There are rumors in the capital that the prince and his wife of the Duke of Zhenguo died in the battlefield, and even their bodies have not been found."

Madam Yu frowned: "Don't spread this around. Isn't this going to shake the morale of the army?"

Xu Shaobo's face was dark: "Even you understand this truth, why doesn't my father understand it?"

Madam Yu was puzzled: "What does this have to do with your father?"

Xu Shaobo's face was extremely ugly: "This news came from our house!"

"My son has confirmed it! The Lu and Xu families are brothers-in-law. Isn't this offensive?"

Xu Ning's face was pale as she walked to the door. Thinking of the note she saw in the morning and Xu Shaobo's words, she couldn't help but pursed her lips.

There was a gleam in his eyes.

"Mom, brother!" Xu Ning walked into the house, then turned to Chunqiao and Fangzhi and said, "Stand by the door."

Chunqiao and Fangzhi said, "We understand!"

Before Madam Yu could recover from Xu Shaobo's message, she heard Xu Ning's voice.

"Ning'er, come and sit down. There is your favorite butter soup."

Madam Yu personally served her a bowl of food. Usually when the three of them, mother and son, were having meals, Madam Yu would often do it herself.

In the Xu family, only Xinyuan's family of three seem more like a real family.

Xu Ning didn't move. She looked at Madam Yu and Xu Shaobo.

"Mom, brother, I heard everything you said just now."

Xu Shaobo frowned. He didn't want to drag his sister into this.

"Just pretend you didn't hear it..."

"Brother! I've heard it!" Xu Ning interrupted him: "Besides, I have this."

Xu Ning handed the note to Xu Shaobo and said, "Mother, take a look at it too, and then we'll make a decision."

Xu Shaobo's expression suddenly changed: "Who gave it to you? This is simply nonsense!"

Madam Yu read the contents of the note at a glance, said nothing, but began to think in her mind.

Xu Ning calmly asked Xu Shaobo: "If these things are true, what will you do, brother? Will you become a hypocrite who framed good ministers and generals?"

"My brother also said that the news about the prince and his wife came from the Xu family. The things on the note may not be true."

"A sleeping tiger is still a tiger and should not be underestimated. General Lu is just not in the capital, but his daughter is the Princess of Jing. Do you think the prince will let this happen?"

"Someone has already passed on the news to me. The Black Feather Guards of Prince Jing's Mansion are no pushovers. If anything goes wrong, the whole family will die!"

"Ning'er thinks that no matter what, we should fight for ourselves, for the safe birth of the child in my sister-in-law's house, and for my mother's wish that I marry a good man and live a peaceful life."

Xu Ning has always been a low-key and non-outstanding person.

It was the first time that he spoke so much and explained so many truths, which really shocked Madam Yu and Xu Shaobo.

She stretched out her hand and picked up the butter soup prepared by Madam Yu, revealing that her ten fingers were wrapped.

Madam Yu's eyes flashed, and something seemed to burst out of her heart.

Xu Shaobo frowned and asked, "What happened to your hand?"

Xu Ning said calmly: "My elder sister asked me to copy Buddhist scriptures with my blood to pray for the queen."
