Quickly wear: The male protagonist Jue Si is manipulated by a pregnant Jiaojiao

Mu Yao was an upright general. He knew right from wrong and had justice in his heart.

Even if Nanzhi left, he would never abuse his private power, openly send troops to look for her, and affect the lives of the people.

Nanzhi knew that he would not do such a thing, so she could leave easily.

But leaving was not her intention.

She must find an opportunity to let Mu Yao know her importance.

Now is a good opportunity.

She hid in the city for a few days, but Mu Yao couldn't find her and was extremely anxious.

And his favorability has been soaring.

After rising to 80% on the day she left, it has now soared to 90%.

Mu Yao was extremely anxious as he couldn't find Nanzhi for several days in a row. Every day when he returned home, he seemed to see Nanzhi's figure everywhere.

She was wearing a plain white dress and sitting by the window embroidering.

Wearing a lavender gauze skirt, she wrote a few words on rice paper and looked at him with a smile.

[In my heart, the general is fearless of life and death, has the skill to control his subordinates, is brave and resourceful, and is willing to sacrifice his life for justice. He is a true man and a hero like a god.]

At that time, there was clear admiration and love in her eyes.

But he ignored it.

Later, there was more and more disappointment and less and less love in her eyes.

Whenever Mu Yao thought of the last few words Nanzhi wrote in the book, he felt heartbroken.

If he had found out earlier, if he had explained it to her earlier, would he not have left?
Mu Yao had never eaten properly. Every time the food was delivered to him, it was either cold or he had someone take it away.

Mrs. Mu was worried and went to see him personally with food.

The guards didn't find anyone, so they hurriedly reported to Mu Yao and left.

Mrs. Mu took the food out of the lunch box and looked at Mu Yao, who was pacing around the room, wondering where Nanzhi would go.

"Yao'er, come and eat something. You haven't had a good meal for three days."

Mu Yao refused irritably: "I'm not hungry."

Madam Mu couldn't bear to see him like this, so she said angrily: "If she doesn't want to stay in the Mu family, just let her leave. There are many women in the world, why do you have to..."

Mu Yao's voice suddenly became serious. His eyes were bloodshot as he looked at her, but his gaze was more determined than ever. "Mother, there are indeed many women in the world, but I only want her."

After hearing these words, Mrs. Mu felt that it was all over.

In the past, she was worried that Mu Yao and Nanzhi had a bad relationship, but now, she hoped that Mu Yao didn’t care about Nanzhi at all.

But looking at Mu Yao's appearance, it was obvious that he had fallen into trouble.

Seriously, my son becomes more annoying as he grows older.

If I had known earlier, I should have beaten him more when he was little.

Mrs. Mu couldn't persuade Mu Yao, so she could only leave angrily.

As soon as she walked out of the main courtyard, she saw the second wife walking towards her holding her eldest grandson's hand.

"Who are you angry with, sister-in-law?"

The second wife looked as if she was watching a joke.

Madam Mu was too lazy to pay attention to her and wanted to leave as soon as she passed by.

The second wife then instigated Mu Rui, who was only four years old.

"Your grandmother is angry, Rui'er, go and comfort her."

As soon as the Second Madam let go, Mu Rui ran towards her.

"Grandma, why are you so angry? Talk to Rui'er."

As long as there is a child around, no matter how much Madam Mu dislikes the Second Madam, she will maintain her gentle and virtuous demeanor.

"Grandma is not angry, Rui'er, go over and play." "No, Grandma must be angry. Maybe because Aunt ran away and no one gave birth to a son with Uncle, Grandma is unhappy."

"Rui'er, if you say that, Grandma will be even more unhappy." The Second Madam pretended to stop Mu Rui, then looked at Madam Mu with an apologetic look, "Children's words are innocent, sister-in-law, don't take it to heart."

Mu Rui is still young. What does a four-year-old child know? It is obvious that these words of his were taught by others.

Madam Mu gritted her teeth and glanced at the hypocritical Second Madam, then smiled and looked at Mu Rui, "Grandma is indeed angry, but she is angry on behalf of your grandma.

Look at your grandmother's son, he is no match for your great grandmother's son. Over the years, he has only managed to get a small official position. He is nothing like your great grandmother's son, who has already become a famous general."

As soon as these words came out, the second wife's face turned pale with anger.

Madam Mu snorted coldly and rolled her eyes at her before leaving.

The Second Madam bit her red lips in anger, staring viciously at her leaving back.

Bitch, she won't be so proud for long.

Nanzhi has been asking 003 to report Mu Yao's status in real time.

[Zhizhi, Mu Yao is very anxious. He has been looking for you all day and all night and has not even slept. If you don't show up, he might go crazy.]

Nanzhi asked expressionlessly, "Who else is looking for me?"

【Mu Yang is also looking for you. 】

Nanzhi slowly curled her lips: "It's time to go out."

The city seemed quieter these days than at other times. When Nanzhi left the general's mansion, she didn't take anything with her. She wandered aimlessly in the market.

She touched her stomach and stopped in front of a restaurant.

She tried hard to gesture to the restaurant owner, wanting to stay and help them with their work, and exchange her labor for some food.

But the boss didn't understand. Seeing that she was wearing a maid's uniform, he thought she was some unwanted maid and waved her away, "Go away, don't stay here and disturb my business."

Nanzhi didn’t bring any paper or pen, so she didn’t know how to communicate with him and could only leave sadly.

She went to another teahouse.

The people who came to the teahouse were all scholars and writers. She thought that since she knew a few words, she might be able to help collect money, check the accounts, etc.

But the people in the teahouse also disliked her because she was mute and would not let her in.

Just when Nanzhi was about to faint from hunger, she suddenly saw someone handing her a bun.

It was a kind-looking old lady: "I see you are hungry, eat quickly."

Nanzhi took the bun and nodded to thank her.

The old lady didn't leave, but kept watching her, urging her, "Eat quickly, eat."

Nanzhi glanced at the steamed bun in her hand and it was indeed very fragrant.

Although the old lady didn't look very wealthy, she still broke off half of it and handed it to her.

When the old lady saw the buns she handed over, she was stunned for a moment and said, "Grandma is not hungry, child, you eat it, don't worry about grandma."

Nanzhi shook her head and handed the bun to her anyway.

The old lady could only reach out to take it. She hesitated, put it to her mouth, took a bite, chewed it in her mouth, but did not swallow it.

I thought Nanzhi would eat it then, but Nanzhi just kept looking at her. Seeing that she was chewing all the time, he tilted his head in confusion.

It's really hard to cheat.

The old lady spat out the bun in her mouth and reached out to pull her.

Nanzhi realized something was wrong and turned around and ran.

The old lady followed briskly behind.

I thought Nanzhi was so thin that I could catch up with her quickly, but who would have thought that she would be like a fish and would run out of the old lady's sight.

The old lady was anxious and quickly found an excuse to shout, "Catch the thief! That little girl stole my money! Hurry up and catch the thief!"
