Rebirth of the General"s Granddaughter 重生之将门嫡女Chapter 26 A Stroll in the Market
These words made Old General Mu"s tears flow and heart comforted. His granddaughter was only twelve-years-old and was so sensible and filial already. How could he bear to hurt her?
Old General Mu gently embraced Zi You inhis arms. He said with pity, "Your mother was a descendant of a G.o.ddess. Shehad the power to come back to life. But you…"
"Grandfather, I am also a descendant ofthe G.o.ddess. I also have powers." Old General Mu"s words weren"t finishedbefore Zi You interrupted him.
She looked at her grandfather and firmlysaid: "You"ll see eventually. You"er currently cannot come back to life, butone day, You"er will be able to. Grandfather, You"er vowed in front of mother"s...o...b.. I will protect you and second uncle. I will definitely not letgrandfather or second uncle die! You"er want you two to live long lives!"
Looking at his granddaughter"s firm eyesand listening to her sonorous and forceful vow, Old General Mu could no longerbear to stop Zi You. He emotionally told Mu Ying Yi and Liu Shi to arrange ZiYou"s matter of leaving the Manor.
In Zi You"s previous life, she did notlike Autumn. She always thought Autumn"s beauty was a little bleak. "From whereto compose sorrow, Autumn is in the heart of parting people." In the Fall, theheart was worried. One could not see geese flying by in a V-shape. One alsocould not see the invisible summer worm going by. One just felt an inexplicableloneliness and could not escape the sad impression.
It"s just that today, when she wa.s.strolling in the market, she saw a few white clouds occasionally floating by inthe blue sky and a few swarms of happy birds flying by. In the distance, gradualshades of reds and yellows intermingled with the green mountains. The coolAutumn wind brought about a sense of leisure relaxation. Due to the harvest offruits and vegetables, even the farmers" noise was full of pride and joy. Allof this caused her dislike of Autumn to lessen and mood to improve.
Her first-ranked head servant girls, ShuiYun, Hai Yun, Shi Yun and Mo Yun, chattered like four little happy bees, flyingEast and West, looking at this and touching that.
Zi You smiled while looking at thesefour little girls aged twelve- to fourteen-years- old. Then she unconsciouslyfrowned after thinking about the servant girl, Yan Hong, who betrayed her inher previous life.
Currently, among her head servant girls,there was the fourteen-year-old Shi Yun and Mo Yun, the thirteen-year-old HaiYun, and the twelve-year-old Shui Yun. Among the four second-rank servantgirls, there was Ruo Xue, Ruo Yu, Ruo Yun, and Ruo Shaung. Among therougher-duty servant girls, there was Xiao Chun, Xiao Xia, Xiao Qiu, and XiaoDong. There was no Yan Hong.
It seemed like Yan Hong appeared afterZi You partic.i.p.ated in w.a.n.g Yiping"s maternal family, Ying Guo Gong Manor"s,Chrysanthemum Feast held after the Mid-Autumn Festival. Ying Guo Gong Manor"sfifth young master, who was also w.a.n.g Yiping"s Shu [concubine-born] brother,molested Shi Yun drunkenly. Ying Guo Gong Manor"s legitimate wife, to keeppeace, asked for Shi Yun to become the yiniang [concubine] of the fifth youngmaster. As compensation, she gave w.a.n.g Yiping"s yiniang"s servant girl Yan Hongto Zi You.
At that time, regardless of Shi Yun"sdesperate crying and begging, she not only gave Shi Yun away to w.a.n.g Yiping"sShu brother to be yiniang, she also, under w.a.n.g Yiping"s coercion, gave Shi Yuna hard slap.
Afterwards, because Yan Hong could speakwell and work efficiently, she was quickly promoted from a second-rank servantto a first-cla.s.s one.
Afterwards, Zi You gradually trusted YanHong, and treated Mo Yun, Hai Yun, and Shui Yun more and more distantly.Eventually, when she married into Yongnan Marquis" Manor, she only brought theyoungest Shui Yun with her after, marrying Mo Yun and Hai Yun away.
She really was stupid in her previouslife. These four first-cla.s.s servant girls had been with her since they wereyoung. How could she alienate herself from them and listen to Yan Hong"s words?
There"s only half a month before shewould see the servant who betrayed her, the servant who was worse than pigs anddogs. Zi You"s pupils slightly squinted and she smiled a cold sneer.
