The Eldest Daughter Is Beautiful and Saucy
Chapter 1177: From the heart
Chapter 1177 Just Follow Your Heart
Bai Jinse is still young after all, and Bai Qingyan doesn’t want to push Xiaoqi too hard. After all… in Bai Qingyan’s opinion, Xiaoqi will not be a fierce general who is good at charging into battle on the battlefield in the future, but he will definitely be an expert in deploying troops.
Bai Qingyan turned to look at Bai Jinse with gentle eyes.
Bai Jinse’s palms tightened. Seeing that her brother and sister were looking at her, she thought that she was almost shot by the crossbow on the battlefield this time, which made her elder sister worried. She pursed her lips and asked carefully: “Eldest sister, Xiaoqi… wants to go to the next city with Fifth Brother, is it okay?”
“Of course!” Bai Qingyan nodded with a smile, “Xiao Qi is smart and will definitely be able to give advice to your fifth brother. I, along with mother and all the aunts… Xiao Ba, will be waiting for your triumphant return in the capital city!”
Bai Jinse smiled when she heard this and nodded vigorously: “Xiao Qi will not let down her elder sister, mother and aunt! And Xiao Ba!”
Bai Qingyan smiled and rubbed Bai Jinse’s head, then put the teacup aside: “In that case, let’s get ready! After I send you off… and settle Yecheng Pass, I will set off back to Dadu City and wait for your triumphant return in Dadu City!”
“Don’t worry, elder sister!” Bai Qingqi nodded, standing with his hands behind his back.
Doctor Hong, who was waiting at the door, saw Bai Qingyan coming out. His white beard was almost sticking up to the sky, and he saluted Bai Qingyan angrily.
“Doctor Hong…” Bai Qingyan smiled at Doctor Hong and bowed to him. “It’s Qingyan’s fault that I made you worry!”
Bai Qingyu stood behind Bai Qingyan, trying not to laugh. She clenched her fist and cleared her throat, “Doctor Hong… My sister hasn’t closed her eyes for a long time, and she’s also injured. Doctor Hong, please take my sister’s pulse.”
Upon hearing this, Doctor Hong’s face changed slightly: “Didn’t you say there were some minor scratches on your face? Where else is it injured? Quick, quick, quick… go to the side room first!”
Bai Qingyan obediently followed Doctor Hong into the side room, and cooperated with him in taking her pulse. She also cooperated with him in applying medicine and rebandaging the wound on her face.
“Miss…” Doctor Hong sat opposite Bai Qingyan, packing up the medicine box while earnestly admonishing her, “Even if it’s not for yourself, you have to think about the baby in your belly…”
“Is the child not okay?” Bai Qingyan’s back immediately tensed up, and she protected her abdomen with her hands, “But… I don’t feel anything wrong.”
“If the young lady really waits until she feels something is wrong, it will be too late!” Doctor Hong let out a long breath in anger, “The young lady can’t rely on the fact that the baby in her belly is well-behaved and sensible, and think that she is the same as before?”
Bai Qingyan nodded repeatedly: “I will remember Doctor Hong. I will not participate in the next few major battles. After settling Yechengguan, I will set off back to Dadu City. I also want to discuss with Doctor Hong. Should Doctor Hong return to Dadu, or stay… and go to Yunjing with Ayu and others to take a look?”
In fact, Bai Qingyan already had the answer in his heart. Doctor Hong was still young and ambitious. When his grandfather was still alive, he once said… He hoped that one day his grandfather would lead the Bai family army to Yunjing and let him see what the capital of Xiliang looked like.
Moreover, only with Doctor Hong around can Bai Qingyan feel at ease with her younger brothers and sisters on the battlefield in Xiliang. She is just worried that the marching speed is too fast. After all, Doctor Hong is old, and she is afraid that Doctor Hong cannot bear it.
Doctor Hong was in hesitation. As a member of the Bai family army… he really wanted to join the Bai family army in charging into Yunjing, but he was also worried about Bai Qingqi and Bai Qingyu. After all, swords and knives are merciless on the battlefield. If they were injured and there was no good doctor by their side, it would be very dangerous.
But Bai Qingyan is pregnant again. Although the fetus looks good, giving birth is like stepping into the gates of hell for a woman. How can Dr. Hong be at ease?
Bai Qingyan stroked her belly gently: “Doctor Hong, don’t worry about me and the baby. Doctor Hong’s junior brother, Doctor Huang, is in the capital city, and… Doctor Hong also said that the baby in my belly is well-behaved and sensible, and will be delivered safely.”
Doctor Hong has always been like this. He trusts his junior fellow apprentice’s medical skills.
“Doctor Hong, you don’t have to worry about us brothers and sisters. You trained all the military doctors in the Bai family army. Besides, the two generals of Xiliang who are good at fighting, Yun Poxing and… Ye Shouguan, have died in battle!” Bai Qingyu was worried about Bai Qingyan, and didn’t want Doctor Hong to travel with them at this age. She wanted Doctor Hong to follow Bai Qingyan back to Dadu, and said with a relaxed smile, “Xiliang will not let General Cui, who is over 80 years old, go to the battlefield. The next battle will not be difficult!”
Doctor Hong was in a dilemma and subconsciously grasped his goatee…
“Doctor Hong, you don’t have to consider what Ayu and I said. Just follow your heart.” Bai Qingyan said with a smile.
After a while, Doctor Hong said, “I am already this old. If I don’t take this opportunity to follow our Bai family army into Yunjing, I don’t know if I will have another chance in the future. This time… I am willing to follow the Fifth Young Master to Yunjing. With me by his side and all the young masters and young ladies, I think the eldest lady will be able to prepare for the birth with peace of mind.”
Bai Qingyan nodded: “It’s hard for Doctor Hong to follow Ayu and the others.”
“If we can make it to Yunjing, in the future… I can brag to the commander-in-chief when I meet him. When I think of this… I won’t feel the hardship anymore!” Doctor Hong’s face was full of smiles.
Hearing what Doctor Hong said, Bai Qingyan stood up and bowed to Doctor Hong.
Doctor Hong quickly moved aside to avoid Bai Qingyan’s greeting.
“Doctor Hong, Ayu and the others… I’m leaving them in your care!” Bai Qingyan said softly.
“Don’t worry, young lady!” Doctor Hong nodded.
Apart from New Year’s Eve, the fifteenth day of the first lunar month is the busiest time of the year for the Bai family army who celebrate the New Year away from home.
Bai Jinzhao and Bai Jinhua took the firemen and wounded soldiers of the Bai family army to make Yuanxiao. One wounded soldier mentioned that they put copper coins in dumplings on New Year’s Eve, and asked Bai Jinzhao if he could put them in Yuanxiao as well.
Bai Jinzhao smiled and said, “Then let’s pack one! Let’s see who in the army can eat the Yuanxiao with copper coins. Whoever can eat it… will definitely be the luckiest person in the coming year!”
“Okay!”
The fireman smiled and washed a copper coin cleanly and wrapped it into the Yuanxiao, mixing it into the pot of plump white Yuanxiao that was rising and falling.

After taking the medicine, Bai Qingyan fell asleep.
In his dream, Bai Qingyan walked into a fog…
She knew very well that she was dreaming, but she couldn’t wake up no matter what.
On the mountain steps covered by white mist, blood slowly flowed down like winding red snakes.
Bai Qingyan protected his abdomen and clenched the Sun-Shooting Bow in his hand. He took two steps back. When he heard a very subtle sound coming from the stone steps, he immediately drew his arrow and aimed at the black shadow whose outline was gradually emerging in the thick fog.
The third update, after pressing the little ancestors, continue to ask for monthly tickets…
