Fenglin Tianxia – Queen with a Thousand Pets

Sister, don't think so much. Listen to my sister-in-law. You can't go wrong with the shop on Dexing Street.

But, the family doesn't have much money anymore. If we take out these five hundred taels again, we will really have no money at all. Li Xiaocui said weakly.

What are you afraid of? Doesn't your Lord Mu still have military pay? Besides, as long as there is a war, won't his rewards come? Besides, this shop can make money back quickly. You can make it back in three months. Sister-in-law Li Xiaocui smiled, then turned to the woman on the right and said, Mrs. Liu, is that right?

Mrs. Liu covered her lips and chuckled: That's right, I've been jealous of that shop for a long time, but it's a pity that I don't have that much money.

Mrs. Mu is so lucky to have married such a good husband. Mr. Mu loves you so much. There is not even a single concubine in the family of a sixth-grade official. Another lady said with a sweet smile. That's like the ninth-grade master in her family, Bo, who had two concubines.

That's right, my brother-in-law treats my sister like a ball in her eye. Sister-in-law Li Xiaocui covered her mouth and laughed.

We are here to visit the lake today, what are we talking about about these common things? the county captain's wife said, shaking the fan in her hand.

Yes, yes, the weather is nice today and the sun is not too strong. Why don't we go sit in Yanqing Pavilion? Mrs. Liu said with a smile.

That's good. The others agreed, then turned around and took the girl and the old woman to the pavilion by the lake.

I heard that there is a happy event happening in General Yang's mansion? Does Mrs. Mu know about it? Mrs. County Cheng approached Li Xiaocui and asked.

Really? I haven't heard my husband mention it before. Li Xiaocui said a little surprised. Yang Zhao is considered the biggest official here, but he has always been single. Not to mention that his wife does not even have a concubine. His marriage has always been the most concerned by the people of Dai County.

I heard that the general's mansion is buying servants recently and needs some maids. I heard that they are preparing for the general's marriage. The county magistrate's wife gave Li Xiaocui a slight sideways glance and said.

Li Xiaocui's face suddenly turned slightly red, and she said subconsciously: That is definitely not about marrying a wife. If it is such a big deal for a general to marry a wife, my husband will definitely tell me.

Really? It must have been wrongly reported outside. The county magistrate's wife smiled slightly and walked away.

Of course it was rumored outside. The relationship between General Yang and my brother-in-law is not very good. If General Yang gets married, my brother-in-law will definitely be the first to know. I don't have to tell my sister quickly. I'm afraid that Mrs. Yang will be the first to see her. It has to be my sister. Sister-in-law Li Xiaocui said loudly from the side.

Of course it is. Mrs. Liu and several other ladies looked at each other and said in unison.

Li Xiaocui was originally a farm girl. When she was delivering food to her brother, she met Mu Guiyun several times in the wasteland of the Ling family. Unexpectedly, Mu Guiyun came to her house to propose marriage and gave her a very generous gift. After the wedding, Mu Guiyun gave her his military salary and twenty thousand taels of silver notes, and left all the care of the house to her. At first, Li Xiaocui was very careful and did not leave the house. She didn't know anyone, she just lived alone in the small courtyard with a few girls and women. However, when her eldest brother and sister-in-law also moved to the county town, life changed. Her sister-in-law introduced her to these county officials. Ladies, at first, these official wives looked down on them, but later they saw that Mu Guiyun was really kind to this lady, and Li Xiaocui was willing to spend money, so she gradually accepted them.

However, even if Li Xiaocui is willing to spend money, she is a farm girl after all. She doesn't show it on the face, but in her heart she is somewhat undesirable.

Li Xiaocui knew it in her heart. When she saw the sarcastic smiles on the faces of the ladies, she felt anxious and said: Maybe General Yang wants to have a concubine first. For an official like General Yang, the emperor must decide on the marriage. It’s just a concubine, even if my husband doesn’t care.”

It's a great blessing to be General Yang's concubine, Mrs. Bo said with a smile, For someone like General Yang, I don't know how many people want to be his maid.

Speaking of this, I wonder if Mrs. Mu can deliver a letter to me? My niece is also sixteen this year. She is both talented and beautiful, and most of all, virtuous and virtuous. I wonder if I can ask if General He is interested in getting married? The county captain's wife smiled at Li Xiaocui.

Madam Liu suddenly laughed and said, What a great idea, madam. After the battle last autumn, General He has been promoted to one rank, and now he is General Mingwei.

This, Li Xiaocui said with a smile, I'm afraid it won't be easy. My husband said that General He has a hidden illness, so I'm afraid he won't be able to marry a wife.

Not only the county captain's wife, but also the others sighed with regret.

Hey, there are already people in that pavilion? Mrs. Liu pointed to the Bajiao Pavilion and quickly changed the subject. She despised Li Xiaocui even more in her heart. The husband and wife talked about such private matters privately. It was because your husband trusted you and actually said this to you. To outsiders, if this rumor spreads, will General He still be a human being?

Since there are already people, why don't we change places. The county's wife said. She was not far from the pavilion at this time, and could see the vague soldiers around.

Sister-in-law Li Xiaocui also saw the sergeants wearing light armor, and even saw the red totem on the stomach of the armor with sharp eyes. She remembered that Mu Guiyun also had this kind of totem on his armor, and she was afraid that these were sergeants from Heishui Pass. Rolling his eyes, he smiled and said, No need to change. I'm afraid those people are all my brother-in-law's subordinates. My sister can go over and tell them and ask them to make room for them to come out. After saying that, she pulled Li Xiaocui's sleeve.

Li Xiaocui knew what her sister-in-law meant. Although she had been dating these ladies for some time and often got together to play cards, she also knew that these people actually looked down on her from the bottom of their hearts. Even if those sergeants were not Mu Guiyun's direct subordinates, as long as they were Heishui It would be impossible not to show off Mu Guiyun's face. Moreover, she took a closer look and found that there was no senior general she knew there. The person who came to the pavilion did not have a high status. What a good opportunity, let these ladies take a good look, I, Mrs. Mu, also have status!

Li Xiaocui puffed up her chest and said, I'm afraid it's the family member of the primary school below. It doesn't matter. I'll ask her to get out.

Li Xiaocui straightened her waist with a sweet smile, and took the lead towards the pavilion with a graceful figure. There were still more than ten meters away from the octagonal pavilion. The two sergeants on the road unsheathed their swords and brought a trace of The chill got in the way.

Brother, this is Captain Mu's wife, can you give us the pavilion? Sister-in-law Li Xiaocui stepped forward and asked.

Captain Mu? The guard glanced at Li Xiaocui and said, Madam, it's better to leave quickly and don't embarrass us.

Li Xiaocui's face froze. From the corner of her eye, she peeked at the expressions of the ladies who were several steps away. Then she lowered her face and said, Where are you from? My husband is Zhaowu Colonel Mu Guiyun. Wait. You are so rude to me, please be careful with military law.

Another guard smiled and said, Mrs. Mu, let's go quickly.

You are cheating again! Ling Qingyu, let me tell you, if you do this again, I will fall out!

Yeah, who can blame me for having stinky hands?

Hearty laughter came from the Octagonal Pavilion. Li Xiaocui stretched her neck and looked around. She saw four people sitting around the stone table in the pavilion. Two of them were women, and one of them, she had a vague impression that she seemed to be playing. I had been to her bridal chamber during the wedding. Yes, it was the one from the Ling family who had given her the huge gold bracelet.

Isn't that from Head Ling's family? Li Xiaocui muttered.

What's Mr. Ling? Sister-in-law Li Xiaocui approached her and asked.

That's the house where my brother and the others first went to help, the head of the Ling family. Li Xiaocui said in a low voice. The five pairs of gold bracelets made her very angry at that time, although they were taken away by her mother and sisters-in-law for various reasons not long after.

It turns out it's her, who do I think she is! Li Xiaocui's sister-in-law said with a hint of contempt on her face, Isn't she the concubine the general wants to marry? In the past, their family was a farmer, and they only had ten children. With a few acres of land, he went to work for the Ling family during the off-season. At that time, the Ling family was the eldest son, but now that his sister married a sixth-rank official, their family became the in-laws of the official family, and Li Xiaocui took Mu Guiyun's money. They had taken it home intermittently, and the Li family was considered wealthy, so the Ling family was naturally not as good as their in-laws from official families.

Maybe. Li Xiaocui said hesitantly.

What are you afraid of? She's just an aunt. How can she compare with you? The one you will date in the future will be General Yang's wife. An aunt is not worthy of being on the stage. Sister-in-law Li Xiaocui snorted.

After hearing their words, Mrs. Liu and Mrs. County Cheng glanced at each other, then stepped back a few steps, far away from the two people in front, and made it clear to the two guards, whose faces were already darkened, that we and those two The goods are not together, definitely not together!

Just kidding, who is the Ling family? How many fields and shops are there in Dai County? Others don't know, but Mrs. Liu and Mrs. County Cheng know that Mrs. Liu's family is the richest family in Dai County, but according to her husband, compared to the Ling family, their family is the difference between ants and elephants, and the county's family is the richest family in Dai County. Mrs. Cheng once heard her husband lament that the Ling family's courage to open up wasteland in Dai County was something he had never seen before.

The guard took a step forward and said, Mrs. Mu, please leave quickly, otherwise don't blame us for offending you.

Brother, what are you doing? Li Xiaocui's sister-in-law was flashed by the sword and shouted: Even if she is General Yang's aunt, is she older than my sister? My sister has been awarded the sixth-grade Anren by the imperial court!

She roared loudly, and everyone in the Bajiao Pavilion heard it. Ling Qingyu turned his head and looked over there, and saw two women dressed in colorful clothes. There were two women behind him who were watching the fun with smiles on their faces. Going over there, oh, there are the back figures of two women who were just short of running.

Who is he? What's the matter? Ling Qingyu asked loudly.

Before the guard could speak, Li Xiaocui's sister-in-law said loudly: This is Colonel Mu's wife. She wants to rest in this pavilion. Why don't you come over quickly to see her?

Mu Guiyun's wife? Li Xiaocui? Ling Qingyu thought for a while, dug out the name from his head, and asked.

You are so rude. Even if you are General Yang's aunt, you are just a concubine! How can you talk to my sister like this? My sister is Mrs. Mu, a ranked sixth-grade Anren. Why don't you hurry up? Come out and kowtow! Seeing the sarcasm on Mrs. Bo's face, the county captain behind her, became more and more obvious, Li Xiaocui's sister-in-law shouted loudly.

Shut up! the guard yelled and just as he was about to step forward, a figure had already passed in front of her. The long sword was unsheathed, and the cold tip of the sword was pressed against the throat of Li Xiaocui's sister-in-law.

What are you doing! Li Xiaocui was startled and shouted to the guards next to him: Are you still standing? Why don't you kill this person quickly!

Ling Qingyu's face darkened and he called, Jiu, come here.

The tip of Yingjiu's sword had already drawn a bloody mark on Li Xiaocui's sister-in-law's neck. Hearing Ling Qingyu's voice, she was already furious, but she still put away the sword honestly and returned to Ling Qingyu's side.

You are so brave! As soon as the sword left, sister-in-law Li Xiaocui's pale face regained some color, and she jumped on her feet and said: How dare you do this to me! Wait until I tell my brother-in-law, and you, actually watched him commit the crime. , wait until I tell my brother-in-law and ask him to chop off your heads!

Nine, carry me over, Ling Qingyu said with a faint smile, I'll kowtow to the sixth-grade Anren.
