Chapter 385 The Cannon Fodder of the General’s House (7)

Tie Yi's sleep has always been good, and he basically falls asleep.

He was still tired tonight. After three years of military training, he was promoted to general after returning to Beijing. There were countless officials in the court, big and small, who wanted to curry favor with him. Tie Yi didn't want to deal with these, so he stayed at the training ground on the outskirts of the city from morning to night. , will not come back until nightfall.

Turning over, there was only a thin quilt on his body in the cold winter, but he couldn't feel the coldness at all. On the contrary, the temperature inside the quilt was getting higher and higher, making it difficult for him to fall asleep.

Closing your eyes, the image lingers in your mind.

He is already twenty-seven years old and joined the army at the age of fifteen. Since then, he has been living a life of licking blood on the tip of a knife in the army. He has never thought of marrying a wife and having children.

He did have desire for women, but women were afraid of him, and forcing him was boring and he wasn't that interested, so most of the time he could handle it with his hands.

So when his mother proposed to marry him a good wife, Tie Yi didn't ask any questions and let his mother take care of it. Therefore, it wasn't until the wife came in that he found out that he was marrying a girl from the Hou family, whose surname was He didn't pay attention to who the name was, he only knew that it wasn't the one his mother liked.

On the day of the wedding, he drank a few more drinks, and the smell of alcohol added to the fierceness he had accumulated in the battlefield all year round. Tie Yi knew that he looked more terrifying after drinking, and remembered that Miss Xu had just mentioned that he had just entered the house. His wife was in poor health and timid, and she was afraid of causing trouble, so that night he went directly to spend the night in a suburban barracks.

Early the next morning, I heard that the new wife had sneaked back to her parents' home.

Tie Yi didn't have much emotion in his heart. The love between his children was like a cloud to him. He never cared about it and didn't bother to waste his feelings. If the woman wanted to leave, he could just go and let her go.

I just didn't expect that she would come back tonight.

And appeared in front of him with such an attitude.

At this time, a voice came from outside the house.

"General, I made you a pot of porridge to nourish your stomach. Have you gone to bed? If not, I will bring it to you."

It was Miss Xu's voice.

Tie Yi stood up, put on his clothes, opened the door and strode out.

"No need."

Xu Ruling followed behind and asked warmly.

"General, where are you going so late?"

"Military camp, no need to follow, go back and rest."

Xu Ruling stopped inside the door, watching the man get on his horse and ride away, her heart slowly relaxed.

It seems that General Tie doesn't have much interest in that woman. That's good, that's good.

The maid behind her was holding porridge and asked carefully.

"Girl, what should I do with this porridge?"

"Thank you."

"Thank you girl for the reward."

One night, Jiang Lai slept extremely soundly.

The quilt in the General's Mansion was comfortable and the room was quite warm. Jiang Lai huddled under the quilt with only his head exposed. He was just about to take a nap when he heard a knock on the door.

"Madam, it's almost midnight, it's time to get up and wash up."

Before Mao's hour passed, Jiang Lai frowned and replied.

"Don't make any noise, let me sleep some more."

The knock on the door sounded relentlessly.

"Madam, if I find out, the old lady will blame you."

Jiang Lai opened the door with a cold face and looked at the new maid outside the door. Although she lowered her head, there was no respect at all on her face. You could tell from the sound of her knocking on the door that she was afraid that she would not wake Jiang Lai up.

"What's your name?"

"Slave Chunyue."

"Chun Yue... the name is too unpleasant, I will call her Miss Yue from now on, remember?"

Upon hearing this, Chunyue quickly shook her head, with finally a little more awe on her face.

"Chunyue still thinks the current name is better, and I would like to ask my wife to grant it."

"From now on, you will call me Miss Yue. If you talk too much, I will get angry."

Chunyue didn't care whether Jiang Lai was angry or not.

What she cares about is that if Miss Xu knows that she has changed her name, she will never have a good life in the General's Mansion.

After all, the real person in charge of the general's mansion is Miss Xu. Even the old lady is willing to listen to her, let alone the new lady in front of her who is not favored yet.

"Madam, please don't embarrass me, my servant..."

"You stand up."

Jiang Lai's tone suddenly became calmer. When Chun Yue heard this, she stood up full of doubts. As soon as she raised her head, before she could see Jiang Lai's face clearly, a slap suddenly fell directly on her face.

It didn't make any sound, but it hurt so much that her face turned to one side and tears fell from her eyes.

Jiang Lai withdrew his slap, frowned and rubbed his palm carefully, lowered his eyebrows and spoke in a casual tone.

"Do you remember your name now?"

"My slave... my name is Miss Yue."

Jiang Lai smiled.

"Your name is Miss Yue, and you are mine. I won't let anyone bully you in the future. Don't worry."

Chun Yue was in tears but was shocked in her heart.

She didn't expect that the new lady who ran away on the wedding night would have such a bad temper. She didn't dare to be disrespectful anymore and lowered her head humbly.

"Madam, where is the old lady..."

"Gress me up and let's go."

In front of the ancestral hall, Jiang Lai had been waiting for a long time, but there was no movement inside.

The temperature outside was very low now, accompanied by gusts of cool breeze, but fortunately Jiang Lai wore more clothes. The black fox cloak on her body covered her tightly from head to toe.

Tie Yi left last night and kept his cloak. Otherwise, if he had stood here for a while, his entire body would have been freezing cold.

Chun Yue was also standing beside her. She had a rabbit fur scarf around her neck and an extra layer of thick clothes. Her cheeks were rosy even after standing for such a long time.

Now she began to look at Jiang Lai with admiration.

Before leaving, Jiang Lai ordered her to wear more clothes and gave her the rabbit fur collar from his trousseau, otherwise she would definitely be frozen by now.

This old lady is quite cruel.

To be so harsh on a newlywed lady, she made her wait outside for such a long time when greeting her on the first day. Judging from the situation inside, it is estimated that there will be no movement for a while.

This was obviously intended to freeze the lady to death.

After being slapped and given a rabbit fur collar, plus Jiang Lai asked her to wear more clothes today, Chun Yue is now completely on the same page as Jiang Lai.

Madam is not easy to mess with, and she is very smart. She will definitely be able to gain a foothold in the general's palace.

So what if the general doesn't favor her, if she gets pregnant with an heir in the future, she will definitely not have the right to speak to Miss Xu.

Thinking of this, Chunyue whispered.

"Madam, Miss Xu must be in there too."

Jiang Lai nodded and counted the time silently, when Little Pudding reminded her.

"Tie Yi is here."

"Okay."

After saying that, Jiang Lai first bowed her body slightly, and her legs that had been standing firmly began to tremble slowly. Finally, when she heard the footsteps, she closed her eyes and fell back without any worries.

Just like last night, she fell into a spacious embrace. A strong arm easily hugged her waist. Then her feet left the ground and she lay comfortably on the man's arm. middle. (End of chapter)
