General is a Villain

"Knock, knock, knock ~ ~ ~"

A rhythmic knocking sound came from the room. The deep chanting was like a Buddhist chant descending from the sky. It was solemn, solemn, and compassionate. It was like a gentle stream of flowing water that was soothing the heart's restlessness.

Old Madam Mu sat low on her knees on a prayer mat embroidered with lotus flowers. The Seven Treasures Buddhist Pearl, made from rosewood, slightly rotated in her hand.

With one hand lightly tapping the wooden fish, with the other gently turning the buddhist beads, he prayed devoutly in a low voice.

"Old madam, old madam …" The sound of light footsteps could be heard from outside the door as Chunyi pushed it open. Her face was filled with joy as she said loudly, "Madam, the young master is back."

She slowly opened her eyes as a sliver of joy flashed across her eyes. With her back facing the spring, she straightened her back and said in a low voice, "Tell him to wait at the door."

Chun Yi was stunned. She opened her mouth wanting to beg for mercy, but when she heard the old mistress chanting, she could only lower her body and blessed herself. She then quickly left the buddhist hall.

He trotted to the door, blocking Mu Yi An's path in the spring. "Young Master, the madame has asked you to wait."

Mu Yi'an wasn't too surprised. He could only helplessly laugh for a moment. Out of the corner of his eye, he glanced at the carriage and thought to himself, It's all this girl's fault!

After half a quarter of an hour, the madame arrived late.

"Are you back?" She cast a sidelong glance at Mu Yi'an and asked with an imposing manner, 'Don't even think about entering if you don't come back!'

Mu Yi An pursed his lips into a smile, raised his voice and said, "Mother, for her sake, you didn't ask me to come in. Aren't you being a bit biased?"

"A man should defend the country and protect his wife and children. Isn't that the right thing to do?"

Yi Xiaoqiao sat in the carriage, pressed against the wall of the carriage as she listened to them talk. Her mind was filled with questions. Why couldn't she understand what was going on with this mother and son dude? To defend the country, to defend the wife and children, was he talking about the war?

Mu Yi'an cupped his hands and bowed. "Mother is right. Since I have promised mother, I naturally have to do it."

"Where's Joe?" Have you found it? " Old Madam Mu's voice sounded extremely cautious, as though she was afraid of hearing some bad news.

Yi Xiaoqiao was startled. Was Old Madam Mu asking her earlier? Was he worrying about her?

A peculiar feeling flashed through Yi Xiaoqiao's heart. She stroked her little heart, feeling an inexplicable sense of excitement.

"Mother really does care about her. Calling her 'mother' actually makes me a bit jealous." Mu Yi'an's tone actually carried a thick sense of dissatisfaction. It really did seem like he was jealous.

Old Madam Mu ignored his feigned pitifulness and snorted. "If you can't find her, then just return to your General's Estate. When have you found her? When will you return?"

Old Madam Mu turned around and entered the room. With a low voice, she said, "Little Dong, close the door."

"Mother!"

"Madame." Yi Xiaoqiao could not hold it in any longer and walked out of the room while enduring the pain from his back.

She really did not expect that Old Madam would care so much about her. Not to mention her, this transcender, even Old Madam Mu might not have met her before. However, after being together for a period of time, Old Madam Mu had developed such deep feelings for her that even Yi Xiaoqiao found it inconceivable.

At the same time, she felt moved as well. She did not have any relatives or friends here, so it would be worse to say that if something really happened to her one day, no one would know about it even if she died. But at this moment, she knew that the madame was looking for her, that the madame was intimate with her.

"Joe?" Old Madam Mu did not dare believe what she was hearing. It was likely to be a lie as he carefully sized her up.

Little Dong was smart enough to grab a footstool and walk over, while Mu Yi An reached out his hand.

The wound on her back had yet to completely heal, but at this moment, she did not feel any pain. Facing the deep affection in the madame's eyes, she felt joy in her heart. For a moment, she felt as if she had found her own home.

"Madame."

Yi Xiaoqiao walked over quickly and held her hand, "Madame, I'm back."

"Joe." Old Madam Mu muttered her name. She still had an expressionless face but her eyes were filled with excitement. "You really came back?"

"Yes." Yi Xiaoqiao's eyes turned red and tears fell uncontrollably. She wiped the tears off her cheeks and said, "Madam, I'm sorry to have made you worry."

"It's good that you're back. It's good that you're back." Old Madam Mu grabbed her hand and sighed. "Little girl, you've scared me. I thought you were kidnapped and killed by those thieves. How are you? Are you hurt?"

"Nope." Yi Xiaoqiao shook his head, smiling awkwardly. He thought to himself, "If I didn't die at the hands of the enemy, I would have died at the hands of my own people."

"It's good that you're not hurt. Let's go home with mom." The madame dragged her into the courtyard.

"Mother?" Yi Xiaoqiao was frightened by this word and her voice changed. The moment she felt touched, she became a floating cloud in the sky and disappeared.

Old Madam Mu changed from her solemn expression from before and walked inside while holding her hand. She smiled and said, "What, the emperor has already bestowed marriage on you. Can you still go back on your word? You're going to get married soon, and you'll have to change your mind sooner or later. "

Chun Yi stood at the door and cast a sidelong glance at Yi Xiaoqiao from the corner of his eye. He bit his lips and followed her.

"This An'er wholeheartedly wants to represent the country and wait for Princess Yun Jiao to refuse to marry. Fortunately, the emperor bestowed the marriage upon him, which is how we can suppress him."

"Mother, why are you telling this to her?" As Mu Yi'an followed behind them, he felt a little helpless. He felt as if his bottom had been dug up by someone.

"What's wrong? Mother, tell me what happened. " Old Madam Mu gently patted Yi Xiaoqiao's hand and said, "Little Qiao, you have to work hard. You have to try to hug two for three years, hug three for five years, and add a few more grandchildren for your mother."

Yi Xiaoqiao became even more embarrassed. She had already spoken with Muyi about being an unreal couple, loving each other and having their own children. This was a bit too much hope for her to give birth.

She stealthily turned her head to glance at Mu Yi'an. Seeing him secretly smile without saying a word, it seemed as though he was quite happy? This stinking man must have a conspiracy.

"An'er is already so old, and other families would have had quite a few children already. This child is the titan [1]. He knows one thing and will not turn back until he has crashed into the south wall." Old Madam Mu was very happy to see Yi Xiaoqiao. She held her hand and chattered endlessly. She only spoke a few sentences, making her want to capture Muyi's heart and give birth to a few more children.

The little Qiao in the book was only fifteen years old, and her body had not grown up yet. She would not give birth to a child for Muyi, no, even if she grew up she would not give birth to a child for him. Why would she give birth to a child for a man she did not like?

In the blink of an eye, night came.

After eating dinner, Old Madam Mu went to the Buddhist hall to recite a scripture, saying that she would return the favor.

On the other hand, because someone was looking for him, Mu Yi An went to the study room to discuss something.

There weren't many servants in the Mu Family, only Little Dong and Chun Yi.

Little Dong was in charge of cleaning the courtyard, growing vegetables, and guarding the door.

Chun Yi was responsible for both taking care of the madame and washing up.

After dinner, she sent the old lady to the buddhist hall. When she returned to the kitchen, she saw Yi Xiaoqiao washing the dishes.

Chun Yi rolled her eyes and curled her lips. "Don't think that I will be grateful to you for helping me. As the new wife of the Mu family, this is what you should do."

What do you want her to say? Could it be that she was right?

"You're quite smart. You know how to give it your all." Chun Yi took a step forward and said coldly.

She didn't like every woman who was close to Muyi, but she was really sorry, she still had to continue being bound to Muyi. Their relationship from the beginning was destined to not be good, so Yi Xiaoqiao didn't expect anything.

She was strong, but she was strong.

She would do whatever she wanted, and the moon would shine in the river.

"I was talking to you, didn't you hear me?" Spring strode over and reached out to push her.

Yi Xiaoqiao threw the towel, "What did you say?"

Chun Yi took two steps back and stared at her in terror. "You …"

"Oh, if you hear it, you can also give it your all." Yi Xiaoqiao seemed to have just reacted.

Chun Yi's expression changed as he said coldly, "Do you think I'm as thick-skinned as you?"

"I am thick-skinned, but I can get what I want. You are thin-skinned, so you cannot get it."

She was clearly here to cause trouble, so there was no need to expect Yi Xiaoqiao to give her face. Clear wind and bright moon, that was all bullshit.

When Chun Yi heard this, he immediately became angry. He took a step forward and stood in front of Yi Xiaoqiao, "You still have reason to seduce my young master, don't you? A little girl like Princess Yun Jiao. You think you're Princess Yun Jiao herself, yet you dare to steal my Young Master?! "

Yi Xiaoqiao was helpless. From the very first day she entered the mansion, she could tell that Chun Yi didn't like her, but at that time, she was still restrained. This time, she and Muyi had already been bound together, so she must have been angry with Chun Yi.

"I hope you can understand one thing. Firstly, I didn't seduce your young master, but the emperor bound us together. Secondly, I didn't insist on marrying him. He was the one who wanted me to marry!"

"Nonsense, my young master doesn't think much of a maid like you. You're just a servant, what qualifications do you have to be with my young master!"

Yi Xiaoqiao was at a loss of whether to laugh or cry. "I am a servant, aren't you also a servant? Where did this sense of superiority come from?! "

"You …"

"Say it again!" Yi Xiaoqiao looked back at her, "I have the emperor's decree, so I can reasonably marry Muyi. Very soon, I'm no longer a servant, but the lord of the general's estate!"

"You … "You …" Her beautiful face was flushed from the pent-up desire to bite her to death.

Yi Xiaoqiao ignored Chun Yi and took out the medicinal herbs she had chosen beforehand to brew the Spirit Calming Tea.

Chun Yi glared at her angrily for a moment before stomping away.

Yi Xiaoqiao looked at her back and thought for a while. She took out a pink silk handkerchief and put it on her nose to sniff. "It doesn't seem to be her smell …"

"What is this?" While little Joe was lost in thought, a hand reached over and took the silk handkerchief from her.
