Rumor Has It That I’m Pregnant with His Highness’ Child: Chapter 640 raid
Yu Niaoyou and Xiao Juan's house is next to it, turn left and walk a few steps.
There were two acquaintances standing at the door.
It was Nanny Xiuyan and Ling Hai who hadn't seen each other for a long time.
When they saw Yu Niaoyao and Xiao Juan, their eyes immediately turned red.
Nurse Xiuyan looks much older. She used to have hair mixed with white silk, but now it has become completely white, and she has lost a lot of weight.
"The old slave pays homage to His Royal Highness, the Princess of the County."
After she finished speaking, she knelt tremblingly.
Yu Niao hastily stretched out her hand to support him: "They are all from my own family, so there is no need for so many courtesy."
Mother Xiuyan first looked at Yu Niaoyou, then at Xiao Juan, with tears in her eyes, but a gratified smile on her face.
"Great, you're all well, that's great!"
During this period of time, Mammy Xiuyan was worried about Xiao Juan and Yu Niaoyou every day, and she couldn't sleep because of it. She couldn't do anything but pray for the two of them day and night, hoping that they would be safe.
Now that they are all well, Xiuyan can finally let go of her dangling heart.
For a while, Yu Niao and Xiao Juan felt quite guilty.
Xiuyan's nanny is so old, she should have enjoyed her life at home, but she still has to be burdened by them and worry all day long.
Yu Niaoyou comforted her with a warm voice for a long time before letting Nanny Xiuyan stop her tears.
Xiuyan wiped away her tears: "Stop standing here, go in and rest quickly, Xiao Hai, go and boil water for the prince and princess to bathe, I'll get some food, and I'll be back soon."
Yu Niaoyou stopped her: "Don't be too busy, we are not hungry."
Mother Xiuyan: "How could you not be hungry after traveling around for so long? Don't worry, my old bones can't do anything else. I can still cook."
Ling Hai followed and said, "I can help Mammy, and I won't tire Mammy."
Seeing their insistence, Yu Niao had no choice but to let them go.
The inside of the small wooden house is very simple, there is a bed against the wall, a cabinet next to it, a set of tables and chairs in the middle of the room, and nothing else.
Fortunately, Yu Niao and Xiao Juan are not picky people, they are well adapted to the current conditions.
The bed is covered with quilts, which look old, but fortunately they have been washed clean, and have been exposed to the sun in the past two days, making them soft to the touch.
After a while, Xiuyan and Ling Hai came back.
They brought meals and hot water.
The meals are very simple, only cornmeal buns and stir-fried wild vegetables, and a pot of pheasant soup.
Mother Xiuyan was a little worried that Xiao Juan would not be able to eat, after all, his stomach has always been very bad.
She didn't feel relieved until she saw Xiao Juan finished a cornmeal bun in two bites without any uncomfortable expression on her face.
Yu Niao asked while eating: "Have you eaten? If you haven't eaten, let's eat together."
Nurse Xiuyan hurriedly said: "We've already eaten, eat slowly, and call us if you have any orders, we'll go out to do some work first."
After speaking, she led Ling Hai back out.
After eating and drinking, Yu Niao and Xiao Juan washed their bodies with hot water in the bucket, put on clean clothes, and lay down on the bed to rest.
This time, they slept very peacefully.
…
Under Xiao Juan's arrangement, the shadow guards sneaked into the city in disguise.
After figuring out the nearest place where the Chen Kingdom army was stationed, they sneaked into the barracks in the dark and found the exact location of the granary.
The next day, Xiao Juan and Tang Guixi led a 100,000 Eastern Expeditionary Army to raid the enemy camp, killing the Chen State army by surprise.
Because Yu Niao could not help, she could only stay in the camp with other old and weak women and children.
She was idle and bored, so she practiced archery in the school yard.
It is said to be a school field, but it is actually an open space temporarily opened up by the Eastern Expeditionary Army. There are dozens of targets erected on the open space. This is where the soldiers train on weekdays.
Today they all went out to fight, the school field was empty and very quiet.
Yu Niao drew his bow and set an arrow, aiming at a distant target.
Released the index finger, and the arrow flew out with a swish, hitting the bull's-eye impartially.
In this way, more than a dozen arrows were shot one after another.
The sound of shooting arrows can be clearly heard on the quiet school field.
She felt her arms were a little numb, so she put down her bow and arrow, and planned to move her arms before continuing to practice.
At this time, two little girls approached cautiously.
Yu Niaoyou heard footsteps, looked towards the person who came, and recognized at a glance that these two girls were from Lijia Village, the taller one was called Li Hongye, and the shorter one was called Li Xing'er.
Li Hongye was more courageous, so she spoke first.
"Princess Princess, I am Hongye from Lijia Village."
After she finished speaking, she poked the girl next to her with her elbow, suggesting that she speak up quickly.
The other girl whispered authentically: "My name is Xing'er, Li Xing'er."
Yu Youyou smiled slightly: "I know, I still remember you."
Hearing this, both of them were overjoyed.
I thought that little people like them, the princess of the county would not take them to heart, but she didn't expect that she would still remember them.
This is a great encouragement to them.
The expressions of both of them became excited.
Yu Niaoyou asked: "Is there anything you can do with me?"
Li Hongye rubbed his hands in embarrassment: "We saw you shooting arrows here just now, so we came over to take a look out of curiosity. I didn't expect your archery skills to be so good. I know that our request may be presumptuous, but I still want to ask you, can you teach us archery?"
Yu Niao was stunned.
She didn't expect the other party to make such a request.
Seeing that she didn't speak, Li Hongye and Li Xing'er felt uneasy.
Li Xing'er wanted to give up a bit, but Li Hongye refused to give up. She bit her lower lip, and as soon as she gritted her teeth, she knelt down to Yu Niaoyao.
"Please teach us, we are willing to treat you like an ox!"
Yu Youyou helped her up: "You don't have to do this, it's not impossible for me to teach you archery, but you have to tell me, why do you want to learn archery?"
Hearing that she was willing to teach, Li Hongye's eyes lit up immediately, and she hurriedly replied.
"Almost all the males in our Lijia Village have died, and the younger generation who are still alive are almost all girls. If we want to avoid being bullied, we can only find ways to learn some skills to save our lives."
Myolie Li vigorously nodded her head in agreement.
Yu Niaoyou said clearly: "That's it, when do you plan to start learning?"
Li Hongye looked impatient: "Is it possible now?":
Yu Niaoyou smiled again: "Yes."
She pointed to the bamboo basket next to the bow and arrow and said, "Go and pick a bow and arrow that is convenient for you."
The two did as they said.
It was the first time for them to use bows and arrows, and they didn't know how to place their hands.
Yu Niaoyou can only teach them from the most basic standing posture.
Li Hongye and Li Xinger studied extremely seriously.
Shen Xu came over at some point.
"Yu Niao, I want to ask you something."
Yu Niao glanced at him: "What did you call me?"
Shen Xu: "..."
He took a deep breath, and changed his words with humiliation.
"Cousin, can I ask you something?"
