Reborn as a Merchant Girl, the General's Beloved

He had wanted to go home after breakfast, but he must have been kept for dinner. He finally got out of the house, holding a sword in his hand, a jade pendant on his waist, and a bunch of boxes in his hands. He said goodbye to everyone with a smile, and finally climbed onto the carriage, but found that it was full.

She yawned, found an empty seat inside, squeezed herself in and pretended to take a nap, without looking at Nanny Su's gloomy face. After all, because there were several maids around, she didn't say anything.

It was already night when I walked back home.

Without waiting for the step stool to be brought over, Anan supported himself on the bicycle frame and swiftly jumped down. He grinned at Madam Su and said, "Madam, tomorrow is New Year's Eve. I'll go see if everything in the kitchen is ready."

"Bai Shao will take care of those things! We don't need you. Come with me!" Nanny Su pulled her and went all the way to the main house.

Anan had no choice but to follow him resignedly. He missed Hongze terribly. As long as he was around, Nanny Su would be very restrained and rarely appear in front of her. Now that this guy hadn't come back yet, he couldn't avoid being blamed by Nanny Su.

She let out a long sigh.

She sighed, and Aunt Su in front of her also sighed. After finally walking into the house, Anan rubbed his shoulders and smiled at Aunt Su with a bit of flattery: "Aunt, do you want some chestnut cake? It's made by my uncle's mother. It's delicious!"

"Miss." Nanny Su's eyes were red, and tears fell as she spoke. She quickly let go of Anan's hand, covered her face and cried, "I raised you when you were a child. You were so small, and now you have grown into a big girl, as beautiful as a flower. You have never suffered any hardship since you were a child, but since you married your son-in-law, you have traveled thousands of miles while sick and stayed alone in your empty room for more than a year. Although you are better now, you have to endure another whole night of torture. Do you know how hard it is for me!"

Anan's face flushed instantly. He stepped forward and covered her mouth, smiling apologetically, "Mammy, can you please not mention this whole night?"

"Girl, those are just excuses you made. You can fool the madam but not me! You really shouldn't have rejected the madam today!" Nanny Su is indeed the top of the food chain in this mansion. Anan felt his scalp tingling and sighed softly.

"What request of my mother-in-law did Anan refuse?" Hongze came in from outside. Without waiting for Anan to come over, he took on the cloak, took off his coat and hung it on the rack. He walked to the table, poured himself a cup of tea and drank it, then looked at Anan.

Ever since Hongze saved his two uncles in the palace, Nanny Su has been in awe of Hongze. Seeing him come back, she quickly ended the topic and then turned to wink at Anan.

Anan found it really funny, so he pretended not to understand why she wanted to pour tea for Hongze himself, and simply sat on his lap, hugged his neck with both hands, buried his head in his shoulder, and scolded: "Where have you been today? I've been waiting for you!"

"No matter what my mother-in-law says, you can't refuse." Hongze hugged her very naturally, his eyes full of pampering.

Anan squeezed his nose at him and snorted coldly, "You wish!"

Nanny Su blushed and hurriedly retreated.

Anan exhaled and tried to get off his legs, but he held her down, brushing her nose against his, and asked, "You haven't told me yet, what is it?"

Anan looked up at him, but suddenly found a slap mark on his cheek. She frowned and looked at him: "What's going on?"
