Kuai Chuan: What to do if you madly criticize beauties who refuse to be cannon fodder

Chapter 401 The General’s Mansion’s Cannon Fodder Next Wife (23)

Seeing her, the old lady felt cold in her heart, and she didn't ask questions. She didn't expect that the well-behaved and sensible niece in her impression turned out to be like this.

"I know the problem with the account in my heart. I don't have to pursue what you have done in the past six months. I have to make up for the shortfall in the account as much as I have left in my hand. If you are missing 8000 taels, you can just make up 5000 taels. Then you can go back to your hometown. , I'll help you find a marriage."

When Xu Ruling heard what the old lady said, he instantly felt that the sky was falling.

With tears in her eyes, she knelt down in front of the old lady and begged continuously.

"Auntie, it's really not me. Please don't send me away. I only have you in this world. If you don't want me, I might as well die!"

How could she leave? If she left, she would never have a chance to come back.

The capital is prosperous, and there are precious sons everywhere, here she can marry an official wife for the last time, but after leaving the capital, without Tie Yi's protection, she would not be able to marry well.

She knew that the old lady was soft-hearted, so she kept begging, as usual, as long as she played the emotional card, no matter what she did wrong, the old lady would sigh and forgive her.

But this time, Xu Ruling didn't wait for the old lady's soft-hearted sigh for a long time.

As soon as he looked up, he saw a pair of disappointed and serious eyes, Xu Ruling's heart was shocked, and he sat down on the ground in an instant, his eyes were full of despair.

"aunt……"

"Last time you embezzled 1 taels. I let you go because of your filial piety. Now it's 8000 taels. Do you know that this money is hard-won, and it's all rewards for the generals fighting on the battlefield?
Our mother and son live a simple life, but you are extravagant behind your back, like a spirit, I will save you from prison for the sake of calling me aunt.

If you listen to my advice and leave the capital obediently, I will find you a good marriage. If you insist on refusing, then you will have nothing to do with the general in the capital. You will be you, and you will no longer be Miss Xu from the general's mansion! "

Xu Ruling was silent for a while, and finally said in a low voice.

"Auntie, just send me away after the spring hunting is over. I have never seen such a scene before. I want to see it."

Seeing this, the old lady couldn't help softening her heart.

In the end, he agreed to her and left after the spring hunt.

-

On the spring hunting day, Jiang Lai was woken up early by Chunyue.

"We have to hurry up. We have to take a detour to the barracks to bring the general with us. Ma'am, have you seen Miss Xu recently? She looks very pale. I heard that the old lady is going to send her away from the capital and go back to her hometown to get married."

Jiang Lai closed his eyes to rest.

"Well, it's nothing unusual. By the way, I'm going to put on makeup today, so give me some energy."

When Chunyue heard it, she instantly regained her spirits.

"Don't worry ma'am, you can continue to sleep and leave it to the servants."

When Jiang Lai woke up, he was sleepy and just about to rub his eyes, when he stretched out his hand, he felt something on his eyelids.

Look carefully at yourself in the glasses.

The painting is Yuanshan Dai, with rouge thinly applied on the face, and then pearl powder evenly spread with dew, and Chunyue also used the rouge pen in the dowry to draw a pear blossom between Jiang Lai's eyebrows, and the plump lips are also delicate and lustful. The drop of pink looks alluring and charming.

Chunyue also specially inserted a small but delicate peony gold hairpin on Jiang Lai's bun. The makeup is gorgeous but the decoration is simple, and the neutralization is delicate and simple.

Jiang Lai was very satisfied.

Chunyue still has two brushes when it comes to dressing up.

The carriage was ready, and as soon as they got on the carriage, they saw Xu Ruling who was already sitting in it.

Jiang Lai didn't say anything, just sat down and read a book silently, when suddenly there was a mocking voice from the opposite side.

"Pretentious, do you understand?"

Jiang Lai raised his eyes and continued to turn the pages of the book calmly.

"Actually, I prefer to look at the ledger than this. It's so interesting to look up the clues in it, what? How about I ask the general to show me the ledger from a few years ago?"

Xu Ruling shut up right then, gritted her teeth and stared at Jiang Lai with hatred.

Jiang Lai is no stranger to this kind of look, she likes to jump on other people's minefields, the angrier they get, the happier she is, for example, she is in a good mood now.

Xu Ruling hated and felt helpless towards Jiang Lai now, she didn't dare to make any more mistakes at this juncture, she only hoped that she could see Jiang Yu sooner and let her return the money to her as soon as possible.

When they arrived at the barracks, the carriage stopped, and Tie Yi, who was dressed in black, bent down and got on the carriage.

The carriage was originally very empty, enough to seat six people.

After Tie Yi sat in, Jiang Lai felt that the oxygen around him was much thinner. He squinted at Tie Yi beside him. Muscles tense all over his body, and his breathing is a little heavy.

Hey.

Jiang Lai lifted the hair around his ears, and slowly opened the curtain to look outside. He had already reached the foot of the mountain, and the front, back, left, and right sides were full of carriages, so it was very lively.

As soon as Jiang Lai opened the curtain, someone noticed her. The sixth and eighth princes on horseback were waiting for someone at the foot of the mountain. When Tie Yi's carriage arrived, they both looked over at the same time.

He didn't see Tie Yi, but his eyes were involuntarily attracted by the gorgeous face inside the curtain.

Seeing the Eighth Prince, Jiang Lai smiled brightly at him and then nodded.

The Eighth Prince was stunned for a moment, then subconsciously nodded, his gaze stayed on Jiang Lai's face for a long time without recovering.

Jiang Lai was still looking around, when suddenly a hand stretched out behind him and directly closed the curtain again.

Jiang Lai looked back at him with dissatisfaction in his eyes.

"what are you doing?"

Tie Yi stared at her face, and the repressed anger in his heart became even stronger. He resisted the urge to pack the woman in front of him and sent him back, and said in a deep voice.

"I'm already a woman, what's the proper way to show my face?"

Jiang Lai snorted.

"Woman? If you don't tell me, I'd forget that I have a husband."

In Tie Yi's ears, the woman's tone seemed to contain some resentment and pity, and for a moment his heart was burning, and unspeakable guilt swept over him, making him feel that he had indeed gone too far.

Women should be more delicate.

As a man, he should be more magnanimous, and it is not shameful to bow his head and beg for peace.

He actually wanted to go back a long time ago, but there are too many facts in the barracks, so many soldiers are waiting to be resettled, and there are still many families of soldiers who died in battle who need to be appeased. No one can replace him in these matters, and he must do it himself.

After all, these people fought with him, so it was his responsibility to make sure that they had no worries about food and clothing for the rest of their lives.

If it wasn't for the presence of an outsider like Xu Ruling, Tie Yi thought about explaining it to Jiang Lai here.

In the end, he didn't find any good opportunities, and Jiang Lai opened the hand that he secretly extended over his back.
