Reborn as the General's Wife

Chapter 239
"Haha, it makes sense, boy, what you said is very reasonable. To tell you the truth, my little apprentice is really a blessing that is unparalleled in the world. If you can come to the general's mansion, you really don't know how many lifetimes." The good luck I cultivated." The old Wuying laughed loudly, everyone in the palace knew who his apprentice was, but people outside didn't know, and even if they knew, they might not think of that girl, now, it's fun , to see what he's going to do next!
Xu Mu readily agreed with a smile.

The shadowless old man stood up, walked slowly around Xu Mu, and suddenly said in his ear, "Oh, Xu boy, I forgot to tell you, this apprentice of the old man is a girl, and she is still young. The young and beautiful girl who came out of the cabinet, if you want to recognize her as your younger brother, it will be a bit difficult."

Xu Mu just thought it was strange, what is there to be entangled with, since you can't be a brother, but a righteous sister, it is perfectly fine to be raised in the general's mansion, so Xu Mu replied smoothly, "Senior, it doesn't matter, since you put her Entrusted to the younger generation, the younger generation can naturally treat her as a younger sister, and she will be the daughter of the general's mansion in the future, and the younger generation will personally take care of her life's affairs like a brother."

"Oh, you," the Wuying old man scratched his ears and cheeks angrily, and stretched out his hand to reward Xu Mu's forehead with a sweet and sour chestnut. Really, rotten wood can't be carved, he reminded him so clearly and clearly, still a The appearance of the rotten wood, is it pretending not to understand, or is it just wood itself, and I didn't think about it at all?

But it's not right, even his old man can see that this kid doesn't seem to have any thoughts about his apprentice.

Ah, yes!Does he know why?So he didn't know who the old man's apprentice was?Haha, if I know, I don’t know how to regret it!However, he is not a very good person. Since the other party is not good, then he will wait for him to be deflated.

Xu Mu was watching the old man Wuying make a series of strange actions, scratching his ears and scratching his cheeks, jumping up and down, shaking his head, and he didn't know what he was thinking, but he was a junior after all, so it was not easy to go forward Excuse me, I had no choice but to be bored in my heart, waiting for the senior to react before listening to what he had to say.

"Senior, what's wrong with you?" Xu Mu stepped forward and asked with concern.

"Oh, it's okay. You still didn't understand, did you? Well, to deal with you, the old man seems to have to resort to the most stupid and extraordinary means. Boy, listen carefully. The old man's apprentice is Yun Yingwei. Married girl, the old man can still see your appearance and character, so he decided to entrust her to you. Since the old man entrusted him to you, the best way for me is to let her marry you, so If so, even if the old man is a hundred years later, he won't have any worries. Although you look as dull as a piece of wood, you kid, but you have a sincere heart and a good character, so the old man is quite at ease."

The shadowless old man was still talking to himself, Xu Mu's body had already stiffened, straightened like a real big tree, but this time, he really became a log.He seemed to be unable to move, and the voice of the shadowless old man repeatedly appeared in his mind, "The best way is to let her marry you", "Let her marry you", these words are like a curse, let him For a moment, I was at a loss, and my mind went blank.

"Hey, Xu boy, what's the matter with you? Could it be that you still didn't agree and forgot what you said that day?" The shadowless old man looked at Xu Mu's reaction with a straight face and displeasure. If Xu Mu could calm down at this moment and turn his head to observe the expression of the old man Wuying carefully, he would definitely find that his eyes were full of teasing and teasing smiles.

"Pre-senior," Xu Mu felt as if he was in the hell rock formation at this moment, and as if he was living in the thousand-year-old ice. It was cold and hot, and he couldn't calm down in the alternation of hot and cold. , Lost the ability to think, every word he uttered seemed to be squeezed out of his teeth, so difficult, so difficult to speak, on the one hand, there were thoughts that were hard to reach but could not let go, on the other hand, there were promises and promises of men. Honesty, how should he choose?

"Well, the old man is here!" The Wuying old man said casually, pretending to know nothing, crossed his legs casually, and looked at Xu Mu with squinting eyes.

"Why, is it possible that you want to go back on your word, boy, you can't be like this, let alone a man, let alone you are still a general loved by the people of the Platinum Kingdom, you can't be like this. It's not a man to keep your word for."

"Senior, this junior doesn't mean that, it's just, it's just..." It's just that this junior has another sweetheart, but Xu Mu didn't know how to say this for a long time, he hesitated, but he couldn't say it, it was his most beautiful yearning, But it is a secret that cannot be told to outsiders.

"It's just what, it's just, a big man, why should he be so mother-in-law? The old man doesn't like it." The shadowless old man stared at Xu Mu's face with interest, as if there was something dirty on his face.

Hehe, Wuying put his hand on his chin and thought, if this kid said that he likes the little princess, how should he answer then?Just tell him the truth, no no, it's not fun.But if he doesn't tell, he will know sooner or later in the future that he has become an elder like him. If he knows it but doesn't tell, it's not bullying. He doesn't want his reputation to be ruined.

"It's just that this junior himself has someone he likes, so I'm afraid it's hard to obey—"

"—" Wuying old man interrupted Xu Mu's words, stood up angrily, and rushed to Xu Mu, "What do you mean? What do you mean by forgiveness? Could it be that the three conditions you said before are all false? Is it right? See how well you said at the time, saying that you will do it no matter what, and you will do your best to meet the three conditions that the old man said? So what is going on now? Should you give the old man an explanation? , without faith, the old man was kind enough to help you back then, but I didn't expect you to be such a person!"

Words filled with righteous indignation came from the mouth of the shadowless old man. At this moment, he seemed to be an old man who ran away in anger because of others' inconsistency, and Xu Mu was in a dilemma at this moment for someone like him.

What he said before is definitely not false, and he is really willing to do his best, even if it costs his life, to fulfill his promise, but he never thought that such conditions, such requirements, would tell him how to choose, how to trade-offs.

That day he went to single out the three masters of the Wuying Pavilion for the sake of the little princess, and invited the old man Wuying to come out and promised three conditions in order to save the little princess. Now, because of this first condition, maybe it will be between them. Draw an insurmountable gap, and from then on, one is the sky and the other is the earth, and the wind and the horse have nothing to do with each other.

In the world, one must be honest when dealing with people, and he has lived up to the world, and being true to his word has also been his standard of conduct for many years.Going back on what he said was really not what he wanted, but how could he be willing?
Thinking of this, Xu Mu only felt that it was difficult to breathe, as if he was about to suffocate, his chest was silently hurting, his brows were furrowed, and he was extremely entangled and painful.

The shadowless old man sat down again, grabbed the apple on the table and bit it down with a "click", and looked at Xu Mu from time to time, with the corners of his mouth curled up, feeling extremely happy.

The feeling of teasing people is pretty good, just treat it as a test between them, isn't it?This will be a big surprise in the future, maybe they will also thank him as a great matchmaker!
"Hey, have you made up your mind? Xu Xiaozi, if you don't agree, hehe, since the old man has a way to wake up the little princess on the tip of your heart intact, he will naturally have a way to make her fall into a deep sleep forever. I hope Don't make a decision that you will regret!"

Slowly speaking the last threatening words, the Wuying old man continued to rub the apple nonchalantly, and repeatedly praised the fruit as delicious.

"Okay," Xu Mu replied nervously without waiting for the old man Wuying to finish speaking. After realizing this moment, although he felt infinitely perplexed and lost, he was deeply relieved. Where is Wuying Pavilion? , what kind of person Wuying old man is, there are many talents, all of them are masters, he has also seen it, and he has also seen Wuying old man's wonderful rejuvenation medical skills

As Wuying said, since he can wake up the little princess, if he is really angry because he didn't fulfill his promise and did something to the little princess without anyone noticing, then he will definitely regret it by then. blue.

"Really?" The shadowless old man approached Xu Mu with a smile, laughed happily, and clapped his hands excitedly, "I would have said that if I knew it earlier, and it's really unpleasant to make such a fuss."

Xu Mu remained silent, lowered his head and looked at the ground silently. At this moment, he was in no mood to listen to what the shadowless old man was doing or saying.

After agreeing to this matter, he has no regrets.

It's just that that distant dream, the dream that I once looked forward to and longed for so much and was willing to work hard for it, maybe, from now on, it can only appear in dreams, and there will never be a day when it will be realized.

Since he promised to marry Wuying Old Man's apprentice as his wife, then he will only get farther and farther away from the little star, until finally they become two parallel lines. Wife, one is still high above, maybe there is also a husband with peerless appearance and literary talent beside him, at most, it is just a nodding acquaintance, a gift of a monarch and a minister.

In that scene, Xu Mu only felt that the sense of stagnation was getting worse.

Can't continue thinking, can't think anymore!
