"Well, Qing'er, please send a message to Ping'er on my behalf, asking her not to think too much. Bingbing is still a child after all and is not sensible. It will be fine when she grows up later. She has been wronged...

Zhou Sheng said again.

Yang Ruoqing nodded and left.

After returning home, she brought the conversation to Ping'er and couldn't help but talk about Bingbing. Yang Ruoqing sighed softly.

"In a word, stepmother is in trouble, Ping'er, this is just the beginning, you have to be mentally prepared!" she said.

Ping'er smiled faintly and said: "The road I chose is my own, and I will definitely walk it to the end. Besides, Brother Zhou Sheng is a nice person, and it's rare to find someone who is willing to accept Huahua."

"We cross Minglu on the 20th, so there are only three to five days left. The days are so tight!" she added.

Yang Ruoqing said: "It doesn't matter. After crossing Ming Road, I will give you a Dragon Boat Festival gift. Anyway, you two are keeping things simple, so you can get married by the end of May or early June."

When she heard the word 'get married', Ping'er's cheeks turned red, as if she had the shyness of a newlywed.

Seeing such a beautiful Ping'er, who was still a young girl, to be honest, Yang Ruoqing really felt that Zhou Sheng had gotten a big deal.

If the Yang Mansion in Yuncheng had always been there, even if Ping'er didn't become Yang Zhenxuan's concubine, she would probably have a capable steward in the manor as the housekeeper's wife.

The cost of food and clothing will be far better than being with Zhou Sheng.

However, the favorable material conditions resulted in a slave status that could never be shaken off.

Unless the master is merciful one day, he can eliminate your slavery, but under normal circumstances it is almost impossible.

If you are not strong enough, the master will drive you away or sell you, and he will not raise you in vain.

If you are powerful and win the heart of the master, the master will think of training you to be a servant who will have children.

Let your children continue to serve the young master, or let your whole family serve as companions and marry the young lady.

All in all, there is still a big word "slave" on the top of the head!

Therefore, marrying Zhou Sheng is not bad, at least you are a commoner.

Children born in the future can also take scientific examinations and become officials.

In a blink of an eye, it was April 20th, and Zhou Sheng invited the former Li Zheng Wang Hongtao and the current Li Zheng Yang Huazhong to come over to protect the media and clear the matter between him and Ping'er.

After the marriage is over, it's time to discuss the matter of getting married.

The matchmakers sat together to discuss and planned to set the date on May 20th one month later.

One month is enough time to prepare for marriage.

We arrived near the Dragon Boat Festival in a blink of an eye. In the morning, there was a light rain, which diluted the sultry heat of the night. The air was fresh, and the faint fragrance of gardenias filled our noses.

Yang Ruoqing sent the three children under the old maple tree at the entrance of the village early in the morning, watched them go to school, then turned around and went home to soak glutinous rice in preparation for making rice dumplings for the Dragon Boat Festival tomorrow.

As soon as I arrived at the backyard, I saw the little puppy named 'Furball' that Xiaoqin and Damo brought to Chen'er and Baobao to play with a few days ago, chasing a pigeon all over the yard.

It was so lively and exciting.

The pigeon was also strange. No matter how hard the furball chased it or barked at it, it just refused to fly away.

When it was really annoyed by the fur ball, it would flap its wings and fly to the gardenia tree in the yard and stand there, tilting its head and looking around with its round little eyes.

"Qing'er, try to catch that pigeon and make wolfberry pigeon soup for the children tomorrow during the Dragon Boat Festival!"

Wang Cuilian came over from there, holding a bamboo pole and net bag that Luo Baobao and the others used to catch butterflies and dragonflies in spring, and whispered to Yang Ruoqing.

However, Yang Ruoqing made a silencing gesture towards Wang Cuilian, and then, with lightning speed, she rushed over and grabbed the pigeon that was pecking at the feathers of its own wings.

"Haha, Qing'er, you are so awesome, you caught her right away."

Wang Cuilian shouted happily.

The fur ball also became excited, twisting its chubby little body and swinging its short tail in circles around Yang Ruoqing's feet.

"Go away, this pigeon is not for you to play with."

Yang Ruoqing lightly kicked the fur ball, and the fur ball rolled to the ground, hugging Yang Ruoqing's shoes and chewing them.

Yang Ruoqing ignored the money management fur ball and raised her hand to touch under the pigeon's plush body...

When her finger touched a foreign object, her eyes flickered, and she pulled out a bamboo tube that was smaller than her little finger, and from the bamboo tube she took out a piece of paper that could not be compressed any more.

Seeing a flower pattern carved on the bamboo tube that was so small that it almost looked like a pimple, Yang Ruoqing's heartbeat accelerated sharply.

Gardenia!

Her favorite flower!

This is Tangyazi’s family letter, a secret letter!

Using gardenia as a mark was a secret agreement between the two of them, and no one in the world knew about it.

"Qing'er, this is..." Wang Cuilian also came to Yang Ruoqing's side and saw the letter in her hand.

Yang Ruoqing said: "Aunt, this is the carrier pigeon sent back by Tang Yazi."

"Tang Yazi?" Wang Cuilian's eyes lit up instantly.

"Have a look at what you're talking about. When can you come back?" Wang Cuilian said again.

Yang Ruoqing nodded, and then unfolded the letter in front of Wang Cuilian.

Aunt Wang Cuilian doesn't know the words anyway, so it doesn't matter if you read it in front of her.

Because the letter paper is relatively small, even if Luo Fengtang uses the smallest brush when writing the letter, the number of words is still limited.

But these few words brought Yang Ruoqing a huge amount of information.

The first was the reply he gave her last time when she wrote a letter to announce the good news and tell some general information about Chen'er.

In one sentence: I am very happy and lucky that my son is back. God bless my son. I am grateful!

Fourteen short words, but Yang Ruoqing felt the excitement on the other side of the paper when he wrote these words.

Because she herself came here like this, how pitiful the hearts of parents in the world are!

Then look at the second piece of information he revealed to her.

That was his good news.

"Auntie, Tang Yazi said that they won several battles in a row and forced the enemy back as early as the end of February and the middle of March."

"Really? That's great!" Wang Cuilian said excitedly.

"Are Tangyazi and Xiaoan okay? Are they not injured?" Wang Cuilian asked again.

Yang Ruoqing said: "Well, everything is fine."

When you go to the battlefield, the phrase "everything is fine" is just used to comfort the elders at home.

If you are really on the battlefield, in a battle of blood and fire, you may pass by death every day, almost every hour, every moment.

Although he didn't die, major injuries and minor injuries were inevitable, and it was not a place to be pampered.

Of course, Yang Ruoqing deceived Wang Cuilian in good faith, and Tang Yazi also deceived her in good faith in the letter.

"Now that everything is fine, the battle has been won, and the enemy has been driven away, then it's time for Tang Yazi and Xiao An to come back, right?"
