Rebirth Of The General's Granddaughter-Chapter 120

Nee Chen’s voice was filled with resentment. “But my son and Laoye particularly like her and must have her marry over. I’m out of ideas. If you do me a favor and have my son ruin her innocence so that she has no choice but to marry him as a concubine, then I will find a way to make Lanxuan my son’s main wife.”

Wang Yiping was extremely happy, but she was afraid that Nee Chen was lying to her.

Thus, she ruefully smiled and shook her head. She sighed, “Ai…… Why does it sound like me, the stepmother, isn’t liked by her daughter? In fact, I’m aggrieved to death. I actually treat You’er much better than Xuan’er. But no matter what I do, You’er doesn’t appreciate it. I really don’t know what to do.”

Nee Chen secretly twisted her lips. She was internally black-belly. ‘She still wants to build a chastity monument? Who doesn’t know your intentions? You’re still pretending with me?’

Nee Chen’s face deliberately sunk. She stood up and put on a posture of leaving. “If you don’t agree, then forget it. As long as Mu Xiaojie marries, she must respect me as her mother-in-law anyway. Your niece already ruined her reputation at our Duke Yongnan fu last time. You worry about that.”

Wang Yiping saw that Nee Chen was unhappy, so she immediately smiled apologetically. “I didn’t say that I didn’t agree. Why are you leaving? Don’t worry. We will slowly plan this matter out.”

“Good, that’s settled then. If you have a good idea, send someone to let me know.” Nee Chen patted Wang Yiping’s hand and walked outside in satisfaction.

After she left, Wang Yiping had a malevolent smile on her face.

She hated Zi You even more now. The main reason was because after Mu YingRui’s injuries were healed, he did not come say goodbye to her in her courtyard.

She angrily went to find him. He not only flirted with that cheap wench Shui YouLian in front of her, but said forcefully and righteously to her, “Furen, Lian’er faithfully took care of me while I was injured. I can’t do without her anymore. I told my father yesterday that I will make her a yiniang and have her follow me to take up the post. Father has agreed. I was going to ask her to give you tea in ceremony tomorrow before we leave. Since you’re here, we’ll do it now.”

After he finished speaking, he didn’t give her the chance to refute and said to that demoness, “Lian’er, give Furen a cup of tea.”

Wang Yiping was so angry that her internal organs shifted in pain as she suppressed her anger. Drinking the cheap wench’s tea wasn’t for any purpose other than to have him sleep with her once. That way, it would be easier to claim that her and her brother’s child would be his.

Mu YingRui had been gone for ten days already. Even when she thought about this incident now, Wang Yiping still gnashed her teeth in extreme anger.

She was sullen enough that day. She not only drank Shui YouLian’s tea, but had to say to her, “Laoye is entrusted to you then, Fifth Yiniang. You have to serve Laoye well on the road and don’t let Laoye harm his body.”

Then she pretended to be affectionate and looked at Mu YingRui tearfully. She looked extremely unwilling to part from him as she delicately said, “Bieqie laid out Laoye’s favorite food and drinks in the courtyard. Bieqie invites Laoye over to let Bieqie bid farewell.”

His wife’s attitude was so low and submissive. She also obediently drank the tea that his beloved concubine handed to her. In addition, she was showing an affectionate expression and reluctance to part with him. Mu YingRui’s vanity was greatly satisfied. He couldn’t be aloof anymore and went with Wang Yiping to her courtyard.

In her room, she used her body and gave it her all. With difficulty, she managed to move Mu YingRui and he promised to spend the night with her.

Thus, the two people were full of wine and got onto the bed after washing up.

Who knew that as the two were getting in the mood and reaching a crucial point, Shui YouLian’s maidservant screamed outside. “Laoye, Fifth Yiniang is sick. She’s desperately gasping for breath. The doctor said that she might be in danger. Second Furen [Nee Liu] is worried and asks Laoye to go over to take a look.”

Since Shui YouLian had been with him, she hadn’t had an asthma attack in a long time. They were about to leave tomorrow. So, why was she suddenly so ill?

Hearing that there was danger, even if Mu YingRui was more of a beast or if he was thinking of that, he didn’t dare to continue.

He hurriedly got off of Wang Yiping’s body and rushed to Shui YouLian’s place.

When he got there, he saw that Shui YouLian was having an asthma attack. She was breathless and gasping for breath. Her beautiful face was choked into a purple color. She looked helplessly and weakly at Mu YingRui with tearful eyes, making Mu YingRui extremely distressed.

Thinking of how affectionate they were during the past few days, he anxiously went over to hold Shui YouLian. He fretted with a pale face, “Why did you suddenly get sick?”

Then he immediately berated the two maidservants. “How did you serve your master?”

The Xiaoyu, who went to call him here, quickly knelt and cried, “Since Laoye left, Fifth Yiniang felt stuffy. She waited and waited, but when Laoye didn’t return, she washed up for bed. But soon, she started having an asthma attack and gasping for breath. Nubi went to find Laoye twice, but was blocked by Furen’s servant.”

“Father,” Zi You interjected at this time. “Don’t blame the maidservants. The doctor and daughter’s diagnoses are the same. Yiniang came into contact with some pollen that should have been avoided. In addition, with heavy worry, that’s why her asthma attack is so serious.

“Isn’t pollen strictly forbidden from being brought into this courtyard?” Mu YingRui shouted. “You’re leaving with Ye to take up the post tomorrow. What else are you worried about?”

“Lian’er…… Lian’er…… is afraid that Laoye…… won’t take…… Lian’er with you. That’s why……” Shui YouLian said, gasping for breath.

At this time, Nee Liu took the opportunity to say, “Brother-in-law, Fifth Yiniang just said that as soon as she smelled the fragrance on sister-in-law, she knew that she would get an asthma attack. The smell of the cosmetics on sister-in-law is so heavy. Then she called you away and you did not return. Fifth Yiniang was afraid that you wouldn’t take her with you if she fell ill. This is normal.”

Mu YingRui understood. So Wang Yiping heavily used cosmetics to induce Shui YouLian into having an asthma attack and then made her worry. Wang Yiping probably had the motive to not have him bring Shui YouLian to take up the post.

That woman. He thought that she was reluctant to part with him. It turned out that she wanted to murder his beloved concubine.

Coupled with the fact that Shui YouLian’s maidservant was blocked by Wang Yiping’s servant, Mu YingRui hated Wang Yiping.

That cheap slut! Jinx! How could she so vicious? In the blink of an eye, she wanted his beloved concubine’s life. She really was thoroughly abominable!

Like this, Mu YingRui was angered nearly to death. The next day, when Shui YouLian’s condition seemed to have improved, he hurriedly rushed to take her along. He didn’t even greet Wang Yiping once.

Wang Yiping went to send him off, but Mu YingRui didn’t even smile at her. He only ordered, “Take good care of Ye’s father and treat Ye’s daughter well. Ye is leaving.”

She looked at this scene and was angered until she wanted to vomit blood. That cheap wench Mu Zi You did not let her off. She said to that vixen, “Fifth Yiniang, I hope that when you come back during the Spring Festival, you will be carrying a little brother or little sister.”

“Bah! I curse her to never get pregnant!” Thinking of this, Wang Yiping couldn’t help but curse out loud.

Wang Yiping and Nee Chen thought that their private agreement was very secretive and that no one knew about it. They did not expect, however, a pure white spirit mouse was hiding in its hole and clearly heard every word between them.

In a short period of time, it reported everything to Weishali.

Weishali was now the leader of the spirit pets. Seeing that the little spirit mouse, Xiaoyin, performed well, Weishali immediately stuck its tongue out to lick it, as a form of praise. Then it went to report to Zi You.

Zi You patted Weishali’s head and whispered, “Continue monitoring them. Also, arrange the little animals well to monitor at the wangzis’, Yu Lanxuan’s, and Shangguan Lingluo’s. Keep a close eye on them twenty-four hours a day.”

Weishali waved its tail and quickly left.

It was very happy and gratified. Its old master left it behind to protect little master. Now little master was getting increasingly more powerful. Her spiritual power and martial arts not only improved, but the spirit pets increased their spiritual power accordingly.

These spirit pets were founded by Weishali to prove that it completely submitted to Zi You. Their spiritual power wasn’t very high, but they weren’t completely inexperienced. They could basically understand it and little master’s words.

Although little master needed to expend some effort to understand them, but they were very helpful since they understood her.

Duke Yongnan had a very sincere attitude when he visited this time. It was unnecessary to speak of his feelings of gratitude towards Old General Mu and Zi You. He also promised, “Please rest assured, Old General! When You’er marries into Duke Yongnan fu in the future, she will be my daughter. No matter who it is, I will not let him bully You’er! Then, should we finalize the engagement? I have invited Daoist priest Yuxu to take a look at You’er and Xiang’er’s birthdates. We will naturally prepare the highest level of betrothal gifts, guaranteed to make everyone in the capital envious of You’er.”

Old General Mu faintly nodded. “Okay, since you’re so sincere, then I will no longer object. But please be mindful of the agreement. If you violate it, don’t blame me for reneging.”

“Of course, of course.” Duke Yongnan laughed cheerfully. “If Xiang’er dares to do so, I won’t let him off either.”

Duke Yongnan still did not know that his wife and Wang Yiping made a vicious plot behind his back. He happily went back to his fu to prepare the betrothal gifts.

Weishali went to report everything to Zi You after it eavesdropped. Zi You revealed an elegant and exquisite smile.

She was afraid that they wouldn’t make plans. They actually couldn’t bear it anymore.

This was very good. It was better than her plotting which would waste effort, energy, and time.

Seven days later was an auspicious day for marriage matters. It was also the day that Duke Yongnan went to the General’s Manor to finalize the engagement and send the betrothal gifts over.

120 boxes of betrothal gifts dazzled people’s eyes. It showed that Duke Yongnan put in effort.

Actually, there was no other way. The betrothal gifts were to dispel the rumors.

Before this, a rumor spread among the capital’s nobility. “Did you hear? Even the imperial doctors are helpless in curing Duke Yongnan Shizi’s leg. But he was actually cured by Old General Mu’s granddaughter, Mu Xiaojie.”
