From the ashes: Return of the General

Chapter 170
At this time, Mrs. Li, who finally found her daughter missing after washing the kitchen, came to her. The mother and daughter met head-on, and Pearl instinctively threw herself into her arms and hid behind her.

She was about to scold her when she saw Mei Xin as soon as she looked up and knew that she was the eldest lady of Prince Liang's mansion. Sister-in-law Li dragged her daughter to her without saying a word, knelt down and said, "The child is young and ignorant. Miss, please forgive me!"

As the only female general in the world, Mei Xin was so famous that even Mrs. Li's family had heard of her reputation.Knowing that she was killing people like numbness on the battlefield, I was terrified, and I couldn't help being a little scared, and the reason why Pearl ran away just now was because she knew her identity.

Seeing Pearl, she shrank her head and didn't dare to look at her. She was very scared, and Sister Li also had a look of fear on her face. Mei Xin smiled lightly and said, "It's nothing, it was my sudden words that scared her, you guys get up."

In order to dispel the fear in their hearts, Mei Xin deliberately stepped back a few steps and sat on the stone bench.

As the leader of an army, Mei Xin has her own aura, and with the fact that she has killed countless enemies, her aura is even stronger.Even if the voice is soft on purpose, the momentum is not reduced by half, and it is not angry.

Looking up at Mei Xin and seeing that she was different from the rumors outside, Mrs. Li boldly pulled her daughter to stand up.He stepped forward and saluted politely again: "The child has no rules, this servant will teach her well in the future, and please don't drive her out of the inner courtyard."

The child is too young to stay in the room all day and not come out. Sister-in-law Li is afraid that Pearl will come out to play in the future and she will bump into her, so she begs for mercy in advance.

But when she asked casually, thinking that Mrs. Li would think so much, Mei Xin said helplessly: "This age is just the time to be playful, but you have to learn the rules. Nanny Song came from the palace. She taught the rules, you should seize the opportunity, no matter how many people ask for it, you won't be able to ask for it. Especially Pearl, learn more rules while you are young, so that you won't make mistakes when you get married in the future."

Pearl is a good child and extremely filial, otherwise she wouldn't have been working with Mrs. Li at such a young age.

She never thought that Mei Xin would tell them this, and Aunt Li was stunned.She is a person who knows how to distinguish right from wrong, after being stunned, she immediately pulled her daughter to her knees and said, "Thank you, Miss, I will definitely let Pearl learn from it."

Her eyes turned red with excitement, and Mei Xin's words made Sister Li, who was confused, sad and hopeless, see hope again.The growth of the pearl is not bad, and if it is bigger, it can be served in the yard. If Mei Xin picks it up and puts it by her side, then it will be matched with a boy or a small steward, then there will be hope in the days to come.

Mei Xin knew that they had just encountered a catastrophe and had tasted the warmth and coldness of human relationships. When her heart was cold, she raised her hand to signal them to stand up and said, "Although your family signed a death contract, fortunately you are all alive and are still together. Those who work in the palace are actually much better than those who were sold to the deep mountains and old forests or the Baihua Building."

She didn't care how the palace treated the servants in the past, but in the future, it will be the same as when her grandfather was alive, with strict and generous rewards and punishments.

Before she got up, Sister Li understood that the one who saved their family was not that kind man, but Mei Xin.Weeping with gratitude, Sister-in-law Li knocked her head three times in succession and said, "There is no repayment for the kindness of saving a life. The family of slaves and servants will be settled in the future..."

Seeing Nanny Sun coming, Mei Xin interrupted her and said, "Saving your family is nothing more than a small effort, so you don't need to say thanks. If you are really grateful, then cook for me. I'm pregnant, and I really don't have anything to say Taste, I don’t want to eat, it seems that nothing tastes good, just think about making something delicious.”

I don't know if it's something in her heart or the day and night are upside down when she is on the road. Recently, she has a bit of morning sickness, and she always feels bitter in her mouth.

Speaking of cooking, Mrs. Li was overjoyed, her sense of decadence was swept away, and her skills finally came into play. She raised her head energetically and said, "Miss does not dislike slaves, so she cooks for her for the rest of her life, but I don't know how Are there any taboos in terms of diet?"

At this moment, Nanny Sun walked up to the three of them, saluted Mei Xin in a polite manner, and then stood beside her silently.

Seeing that Nanny Sun was neither humble nor overbearing, just like Nanny Song, Mei Xin couldn't help but sigh in her heart that the rules in the palace were good.The advances and retreats are decent and generous, and people can't find any faults: "I was born in Beijing, and went to Liangzhou after I was two years old. I have been growing up in Liangzhou. I don't have any taboos or picky eaters. However, since I have My taste seems to have changed after pregnancy, I always want to eat something delicious, but I don’t know what I want to eat.”

In her previous life, she was restless because of her pregnancy, and she was worried about Shangguan Xinrou's attitude. She felt ashamed of her family, so she didn't seem to have any morning sickness reaction.It has been three months since she married into Prince Ping's mansion, and the morning sickness has passed, and there is no discomfort.Therefore, the feeling is very strong now, and everything I eat is tasteless.

In fact, it wasn't that there was no morning sickness reaction, it was just that there were too many things going on at the time, and she simply had no time to take care of them.

Sister-in-law Li is a person who has given birth before. She has two sons and two daughters under her knees. Knowing that she is like this in the first trimester, she said: "Since the general has no taste, let's eat dumplings in sour soup at noon today. The sour soup is appetizing, maybe It will make you feel better after eating.”

The weather is cold, drink some hot soup, pour some mature vinegar, and add some coriander powder, the taste is not to mention how beautiful it is.

She only ate dumplings once a year in the military camp, but Mei Xin had never eaten dumplings in sour soup.I don’t know what it’s like, but it should be good when I think about it. I nodded and agreed: “From now on, I’ll leave all my meals to you. Yue will give her half of your monthly silver."

Originally, they wanted their mother and daughter to get the same amount of moon silver, but after thinking about it, it seemed a little inappropriate.Everyone said Sheng Michou, Doumian, she should take her time.

Although she was only half of herself, Yueyin Li's sister-in-law was still overjoyed, took her daughter's hand and kowtowed to Mei Xin again and again to thank her.All of their family signed a death contract, and the palace was responsible for all food and clothing expenses, but who didn't want a little more money.What's more, her son will marry a wife in the future, and her daughter will marry someone else, asking for money everywhere.

Seeing Pearl, Mei Xin was also moved and cried. She stood up and said, "Okay, it's cold on the ground, everyone get up! I still have something to do, you all go down and get busy."

After speaking, Mei Xin walked towards her room.

Nanny Sun looked at Mrs. Li's mother and daughter, and saw that they were crying so badly, she frowned involuntarily.However, it is better for her to say less when she first entered the palace.
