"Brother, since the state officials set the fire, why don't we, the people, light the lamps?"
"You, you guys..." Xiao Chongjing looked at Xiao Qinyu and then at Xiao Qintang in shock. Seeing them sneering at me and looking indifferent, I felt a chill in my heart.
He suddenly felt that everything was meaningless.
His nearly twenty years of life and death on the battlefield were all turned into nothingness at this moment.
"Okay!" He nodded and his fingers trembled, "Okay!"
"Since you said so, from today on, if you two like to set fires and light lamps, I won't care about them! But if you have the ability, don't borrow the light of my general's mansion! If I find you two setting fire outside, If you do evil under my banner, I will not let you go!"
After saying that, he snorted coldly, rolled up his sleeves and left without even looking at his younger brothers and sisters.
"General~"
Looking at the direction he was leaving, the servant quickly ran over and whispered, "This is the direction to Suifeng Garden, you still have to pay attention."
"Just say I'm sick."
Xiao Chongjing said coldly.
He drove straight to Suifeng Garden, pushed aside the maid, kicked open the door, and went directly to Ruan Yunluo's room.
Ruan Yunluo was being groomed by Aunt Wan. When she heard the door being kicked, she frowned and looked over, "General, if you don't go on duty this early in the morning, why are you here in such a rage?"
"What are you here and me here?" Xiao Chongjing felt the discomfort acutely, "This is my home! I can be wherever I want!"
"General, are you here to quarrel with me?" Ruan Yunluo asked expressionlessly.
She then looked at Aunt Wan, "Since the general doesn't like us, then we won't stay at his house. You pack your things, and let's go to the village where I'm dowry to live for a while..."
"When did I dislike you?" Xiao Chongjing had a headache.
He didn't know what was wrong with him, why did anyone come to criticize him so early in the morning? He obviously came here for some business, so why was he being scolded again before the business was done?
"It's time for you to calm down, right?"
Xiao Chongjing sighed and looked at Ruan Yunluo helplessly, "If you are angry again, you can ignore other things and take care of Qinyu and Qintang, right? They are drinking and gambling and staying up all night. You, the sister-in-law, Are you not worried at all? You just watch and don't care at all?"
"How can I care?" Ruan Yunluo asked with a strange look on his face, "Not to mention that I am still sick. Even if I am not sick, can I still be the boss of my sister-in-law and brother-in-law?"
"You brought them up, why can't you be the master?" Seeing that Ruan Yunluo refused to let go, Xiao Chongjing was a little impatient and couldn't help but start to find trouble, "Besides, don't you have no responsibility for the way they are now? How did you raise them from childhood to adulthood? How did you develop them to be like that?!"
"General, how can you blame Madam?!"
Aunt Wan looked at Xiao Chongjing in disbelief, unable to believe that he could be so shameless. "Why the second young master and the third young lady are like this? Others don't know, don't you know?! When we were young, whenever the madam was strict with the two young masters, you and the old lady asked the madam not to interfere. Now you have forgotten ?!"
"Nonsense, since when did I not let Madam intervene?!" Xiao Chongjing's face turned gloomy when he saw that even a mere servant dared to question him, "Mother Wan, don't let your master know your superiority just because you breastfed your master when you were a child! If you continue to be so arrogant, your wife will not be able to protect you!"
"I don't dare, I'm just aggrieved for my wife!"
After all, Aunt Wan is the old man in the house, the wet nurse of the two masters, and someone close to Ruan Yunluo. For so many years, she has always had a detached status in the family, but recently she has been shameless twice in a row. It's really...
Her face instantly turned red, but she still said in a neither humble nor arrogant tone: "Every time Madam asks Third Miss to study, you and the old lady say that it is of no use for girls to study, and just let her be happy. Every time Madam educates Second Lady The young master is sensible, you and the old lady also said that these matters have to be taught by your own husband. As for the lady, she is a prostitute, so just make sure that he is fed and clothed, and others should not interfere."
"General, you have said all this personally, and Madam has complied with all of them. Now you are blaming Madam for not educating the two masters properly. Don't you think..." Facing Xiao Chongjing's dagger-like gaze, Nanny Wan said He lowered his head again, gritted his teeth and continued: "Don't you think you are too harsh on Madam?"
"Did I give you face?" Xiao Chongjing looked at Aunt Wan with a sullen face, and said in a serious tone: "Is it your turn to intervene in the matter between my wife and me?"
"I know my mistake."
Wan Wan felt a chill in her heart and was about to kneel down immediately.
"What's wrong with you? You just told the truth." Ruan Yunluo grabbed Nanny Wan and patted the back of her hand to comfort her, "Don't worry, the general is not a petty person, and he won't say anything just for a few words of truth. Tempered.”
"Right, General." She said, looking at Xiao Chongjing with a smile.
Xiao Chongjing glanced at Ruan Yunluo displeasedly, but finally waved his hand and didn't pursue it further.
He was not in the mood to stay any longer, so he stood up, and regardless of whether Ruan Yunluo wanted to or not, he directly said in a commanding tone: "I still have something to do, I will leave it to you for the second brother and third sister. I will give you three days." , I will ask you if they still won’t change it after three days!”
Ruan Yunluo thought about it and felt that since Xiao Chongjing was asking for trouble, there was no reason for her not to accompany him. So he smiled and agreed.
After seeing Xiao Chongjing off, she went directly to the Bamboo Grove Garden.
"Why are you here?" In the bamboo forest, Xiao Qinyu was dancing drunkenly with his sword. Seeing Ruan Yunluo, he threw away his sword in great disappointment, "Did he ask you to come?"
"Yes and no."
"What? Is there anything else?"
Xiao Qinyu glanced at Ruan Yunluo, lay down on the steps and started drinking again without paying much attention.
In his heart, Ruan Yunluo is just a poor good wife and mother who can only manage the house and take care of others. When she came here this time, she must have wanted to persuade him not to drink or gamble, to listen to her elder brother and not to think about Miss Xiao Rou all the time...
But unexpectedly, Ruan Yunluo opened his mouth and said, "Second brother, let's cooperate."
"Cooperation?" Xiao Qinyu finally looked at Ruan Yunluo. He sneered and said somewhat amusingly: "How to cooperate? Why should I cooperate with you? Why do you cooperate with me?"
"Because of Miss Xiaorou."
Looking at Xiao Qinyu's suddenly changed color, Ruan Yunluo said calmly: "After all, she is just a young girl. She doesn't know what it means to commit herself to a man who is more than ten years older than herself, and she doesn't know what it means to be a concubine. I don't know." I hope she ruins her whole life in a daze..."
Ruan Yunluo looked at Xiao Qinyu, "You don't want it either, right?"
"But she is willing, what can I do?" Xiao Qinyu said half helplessly and half tentatively.
"You have it!" Ruan Yunluo looked at Xiao Qinyu with a smile, "Whether they can succeed or not depends on you. Unlike you, I have no one to support me, but you have it!"
"You mean...my mother?"
