“Sister, there are a few people in the Night Army who know medicine,” Xu Sizhi replied.
“Then I’ll leave the rest of the business to you.” After saying this, Xu Qing brought Xun Fen and Teng Nian back.
As for the bodyguards for the other people in the house, Xu Qing planned to wait a little longer to prevent them from feeling uneasy.
On the way back, Xu Qing looked at the two young girls and said, “What skills do you guys have?”
As the eldest, Xun Fen hurriedly replied, “I’m good at using the flute to control people and make them kill each other. Apart from that, I also know some medical skills.”
Xu Qing looked at the exquisite white flute at Xun Fen’s waist. It was really difficult to imagine that such a small flute could kill people.

Xu Qing took another look. The zither that Teng Nian had been hugging turned out to be her weapon. Then, she asked, “I heard that you have two sisters. Where are they?”
“Miss, Yi Li uses a lute and knows a little about charm techniques. I use a small drum and know a little about array formations,” Xun Fen replied.
Xu Qing raised her eyebrows. It seemed that she had been too focused on medicine in the past. She actually didn’t know that there were people with all sorts of weapons.
Of course, Xu Qing did not sigh for long, because as soon as she stepped into the house, Qu Feng, Xu Jiangxi, and the others appeared nervous.
“Little Qing, we are a poor family. How can we have servants? Besides, they’re so young.” Qu Feng was uneasy.
“Mother, you know that I’m busy. It’s normal to ask for help.” Xu Qing was glad that she didn’t bring them all back at once. Otherwise, her parents would probably be uneasy.
......
Qu Feng knew that Xu Qing was very busy, but she couldn’t bear to let the two young girls in front of her be her servants.
When Xun Fen and Teng Nian saw this, they immediately knelt down and cried bitterly. “Madam, please take us in. We lost our fathers in our early years, and our mothers passed away a few years later. Our relatives despised us for being girls and sold us into brothels. If we hadn’t met Miss, we would have died. Don’t worry, Madam, we sisters will definitely serve you two well. Madam, please don’t chase us away…”
Xu Qing watched Xun Fen and Teng Nian acting and couldn’t help but snicker.
Qu Feng pitied them even more.
Xu Qing took the opportunity to say, “They’re quite pitiful. Mother…”
Qu Feng was helpless. “Hurry up and get up. How pitiful…”

Qu Feng heard that they still called her Madam over and over again. She couldn’t change their address and could only follow their wishes.
Xu Qing arranged rooms for Xun Fen and Teng Nian. Qu Feng was soft-hearted and took good care of them. This made Xu Qing frown. There would be more people in the family in the future. If Qu Feng was always so naive and enthusiastic, it would probably cause unnecessary conflict. It seemed like she had to teach Qu Feng what it meant to be the host of the household when she had the time! ????n????????e????d.＆nbsp;????????????
After Xu Qing arranged Xun Fen and Teng Nian’s matters, she returned to her room and saw Qiao Yanhui reading. The three children on the crib were sleeping soundly. This scene was heartwarming to Xu Qing.
Xu Qing walked over and was about to ask him what book he was reading when she walked in to take a look. It was the book “Art of War”.
“Little Hui, can you understand?” Xu Qing looked at Qiao Yanhui meaningfully.
Qiao Yanhui looked at Xu Qing’s bright eyes and didn’t want to continue lying to her, but not now. He couldn’t implicate Xu Qing while everything was still unclear.
“I don’t understand, but the words on it are so interesting,” Qiao Yanhui said excitedly.
Xu Qing smiled and felt that she was overthinking. She picked up the book and sat beside Qiao Yanhui. “Then I’ll teach you. This book is called ‘Art of War.’ It’s a very famous war book…” She explained patiently.
Qiao Yanhui listened slowly, and his gaze slowly changed. Xu Qing really understood!
In the neighboring country of the ancient country, the New Heavenly Kingdom, their Regent had once issued a business card with such words on it. He had seen such words before and had an impression of them, but it wasn’t very high. Xu Qing could actually understand them…
