C202 Refuge (1/2)

General's Estate.

”Madam, another giver has come.” Phantom Shadow felt very helpless.

”Just send him away.” Wang Jing Rou was very straightforward.

Since she was married to Chu Jingli, she had to use him as an example.

”Yes.” After retreating like a shadow, the person that came to meet him was a familiar person.

”Yunyao, long time no see.”

”Yeah, I was bored in the palace so I came to find you.” Currently, the two oldest masters of the palace were no longer around. As a servant, she could also be considered to be someone whose 'ambition was hard to earn'.

Ru Ying took her hand and said, ”Since you've come, you should stay at the general's estate for a few more days. I can help you talk to Young Master.”

”This might not be in keeping with the rules.” She was a little hesitant.

”It's not against the rules. No one cares about you right now.” Ru Ying did her best to persuade her. ”Once Young Master and Madam have fully recovered, we'll set out on our journey and continue to search for the Emperor's whereabouts.”

Indeed, this condition was still tempting. She nodded and readily agreed.

”However, why do you change your name to Madam now? Weren't they incompatible in the past?” She purposely teased him.

”People change. After getting along with her, I feel that she's a pretty good woman, pretty compatible with Young Master.”

”It's good that you're free.” At first, she was still worried, but if Ruo Ying and Wang Jing Rou did not get along for a long time, it would be difficult for the general to be in the middle.

Now that the matter had been resolved, it was a good thing.

”Let's go. Follow me to send away those guests who sent gifts. You don't even know how annoying they are.”

”It's normal to have such a big tree, but the general probably doesn't like it.” She spoke very objectively.

”Young Master doesn't like them at all. He simply hates them. When I send them off, I always try to persuade him kindly. If it were Young Master, he wouldn't have such a good temper.”

The two women walked towards the main hall as they spoke.

Chu Jingli walked over to Wang Jing's soft place and took out a golden hairpin from his chest pocket, ”I don't know which style you like, I just randomly picked one.”

Wang Jing Rou smiled gently: ”As long as it's a gift from you, I like it. Come, help me insert it.”

This was a gift from her husband. Although it wasn't a priceless gift, in her heart, it was worth more than a thousand gold.

”Madam, you don't have to say it. Ever since you took over, the expenses of the general's estate have been reduced.”

Before Wang Jing Rou got married, although she didn't waste money on her family, she spent quite a bit of money.

Now that she had entered her husband's house, she had been very thrifty and virtuous.

”No matter what others say, we will live our own lives and stick to what we think is right.” She said this very sensibly.

”Let's go, madam. Do you still want to eat Cloud Swallowing?” This couple had recently become infatuated with the Cloud Swallowing Art made by an old lady.

”Alright, how about we bring some back to Ruo Ying as well?” Wang Jing Rou treated her servant well, and it was very compatible with the word 'soft' in her name.

Chu Jingli did not understand, ”How do we take them?”

”Darling, you really are confused.” Wang Jing Rou purposely teased, ”Can't you just bring the food basket?”

Chu Jingli was ashamed, ”Madam is indeed intelligent.”

Thus, the couple sneaked out through the back door.

When they arrived on the main street, the crowd was bustling with activity, and they were all discussing the great general's meritorious service to the enemy.

Wang Jing Rou listened patiently, but in the end, she heard — Amudu was actually killed by her husband.
