In the year of disaster in the book, the villain girl is the real winner

Let’s look at Xu Yushi again.

She was wearing gold and silver jewelry, dressed like a wealthy lady, and even her complexion looked much better. It seemed that she had been living a relatively comfortable life recently.

He Qingya looked at Xu Yushi, then at the middle-aged man, and suddenly, an expression of shame and annoyance appeared on her face.

"You... you!"

Before He Qingya could speak, Xu Yushi spoke first, "Qingya, don't blame your mother. Your father doesn't want me anymore. The Xirong army has 100,000 soldiers. We don't know if we can hold Lan County. Your cousin Xuan hasn't come back yet. Nothing can happen to your grandfather and uncle. I... I don't want to be a wandering ghost if I die. That's why I remarried. It was your father who wanted to divorce me, so I won't be sorry for him if I remarry."

He Qingya spat directly, "Bah! Do you think I don't know that he is an old friend of the Xu family and has been to Lan County before. I have met him. I thought he was considering the old relationship between the two families, but it turns out he did it for you."

"It's been less than half a month since you divorced my father, and you took his child and remarried. And you found such a high-sounding reason. After all, he is a wealthy businessman from the provincial capital, and my father is nothing but a poor warrior. If you were not a married man before, I'm afraid you would have proposed to him and left with him long ago!"

Xu Yushi didn't expect that He Qingya would speak so badly of her.

She said with a pale face: "Qingya, things are really not what you think."

"If you want to blame someone, blame me." The middle-aged man defended, "I felt sorry for your mother. In this war-torn year, she was helpless and dependent on others. She was looked down upon by your aunt and was pregnant. That's why I asked her to marry me. She kept talking about you to me and wanted to bring you and Qinglu with her."

"My family and the Xu family are old friends. It was your grandfather who helped my father, which led to our family's recovery. I came to the Xu family because I was really grateful to your grandfather. There is nothing wrong between me and your mother."

"My first wife died of illness a few years ago, leaving behind a son. If you and Qinglu are willing, after the Xirong troops withdraw, come back to the provincial capital with me and your mother. I will treat you as my own daughters. Since I married your mother, I am sincere to her."

He Qiudi: ...

This person never appears in the novel.

Oh.

It might be that in He Qingya's previous life, Lan County fell, almost all members of the Xu family died, and this man from the provincial capital might have died as well.

Therefore, it has never appeared.

Or maybe, Xu Yushi and He Huaiping had not divorced before, and he was just an old friend of the Xu family, so there was no need to focus on him.

Looking at Xu Yushi's market situation, it's pretty good.

She is due to give birth in two months.

There is also a successful person in society to take over.

This is ancient times.

Tsk.

With Xu Yushi's methods, He Qiudi didn't believe it. Everything between them was innocent before Xu Yushi and He Huaiping divorced.

Xu Yushi said, "Qingya, your uncle is a very good person. He treats me very well. He has a son, so he doesn't care whether you and Qinglu are boys or not. He will love you all the same. In the He family, your grandma only has eyes for your eldest uncle. There is no place for you at all for your two uncles and your aunt. You and Qinglu, just come with us. When we get to Kuncheng, with your uncle's ability, it won't be difficult for him to marry you into an official family or a noble family."

Just as He Qingya was about to open her mouth to criticize the Chinese quintessence, a deep voice rang out.

"Xu Yushi, since you have remarried, don't think about Qingya and Qinglu. They are the granddaughters of the He family and the daughters of me, He Huaiping. I, He Huaiping, will use my own abilities to marry my daughters to officials and into aristocratic families, so you don't have to worry about them."

He Huaiping walked into the embroidery shop with a calm expression.

He Qiudi glanced at him and felt relieved after making sure that his expression was calm.

He Huaiping has been working very hard during this period of time, and He Qiudi has seen it.

After the Western Rong people declared war, he and He Huaibi helped with logistics.

On the day the Western Rong attacked the city, he killed many enemy soldiers.

After that, he also ran around the city, doing many things he could, and even went with Yang Yi to burn the enemy's food and grass. He Qiudi only found out about this afterwards. After knowing this, He Qiudi himself was worried for him.

It took the help of the sisters He Qingya and He Qinglu to make him promise that he would not do such a risky thing again next time.

Xu Yushi looked at He Huaiping and saw that he didn't care at all that she had remarried and there was no sadness on his face. She felt full of resentment.

He really doesn't care about himself at all, so he seems so indifferent at this moment.

It’s all that bitch Qi Xi’s fault!

The man noticed that Xu Yushi was trembling, and didn't say much, but looked at He Huaiping.

"Since Brother He has such great ambitions, I will wait and see. After all, Yu Niang is pregnant with your child, but you treat her like this. But don't worry, I will cherish what you don't cherish. Please respect each other in the past."

After saying that, he put his arm around Xu Yushi's shoulders and left.

"Father..."

He Qingya looked at He Huaiping with heartache.

Even she could guess that her mother had other thoughts before she divorced her father, so how could her father not guess it?

Because she remembered that when her father took Qi Xi to the He family and wanted to keep her, her mother made a fuss. Her father mentioned that he wanted to divorce her and asked her to find a husband who could afford to send her cousin Xuan to school.

It turns out that Dad guessed everything.

He just hadn't faced these facts before.

Having lived two lives, He Qingya understood her father's pain.

I even felt sorry for my father.

No.

Dad is a real man and he doesn't need anyone's sympathy.

Even if he was betrayed and abandoned by his mother, he could still live a good life.

These days, my father has worked so hard just to change the status quo. He wants to take advantage of the invasion of the Western Rong people to make achievements and earn some fame for himself.

After Xu Yushi left, He Huaiping shook his head and said to He Qingya, "Qingya, Dad will try his best. Your mother's behavior is not suitable for our He family. As a person, you should live up to the world. Taking shortcuts and actively plotting will only end up in vain."

"Father, I understand. As a person, you must be down-to-earth, so that you can look up to the heavens without shame, look down to the earth without shame, and live a life that is upright and aboveboard."

He Huaiping nodded and was the first to leave the embroidery shop.

The Xirong people are probably about to know the specific situation in the city.

Once they knew that Lan County had sufficient food and no shortage of water, and could survive the harsh winter, they would certainly rush to attack Lan County as soon as possible.

Otherwise, the Western Rong people can no longer afford to delay.

During this period of time, the Fengshi Banquet has been basically prepared.

He Qiudi had already provided better iron-smelting technology. During this period, in Lan County, he worked day and night and made a batch of sharp weapons, which were enough to equip the elite troops selected by Feng Shiyan.
