Reborn as a Merchant Girl, the General's Beloved

Hongze would get up early every day to attend court, and would leave quietly so that Anan was completely unaware. She had decided to be a good wife, tidying up his clothes and serving him tea and water before he left. However, she slept so soundly that when she woke up, the sun was already high in the sky.

She pounded the bed and pillow in frustration, and complained to Nanny Su why she didn't come into the room to wake her up as they had agreed to do. Nanny Su looked at her coldly and said, "How dare you ask that? Didn't you ask your son-in-law's servants to keep me out of the room?"

Anan's old face turned red, and he bared his teeth and acted coquettishly towards Nanny Su.

Su Ma knew that the couple loved each other very much. She just tapped her forehead and said with a smile, "You are born lucky! Such a prominent son-in-law, although he has a bad reputation and looks fierce, he is a caring person in his heart! Not to mention asking you to get up early to serve him, he even carries you in his arms when you go in and out!"

Although she said this, she couldn't hide the smile on her face. Seeing that Anan was too embarrassed to look up, she sighed, "Come on, I won't bother you. I see those two boys following my son-in-law everywhere during the day and staring at me like a thief at night. It's really pitiful. From now on, as long as my son-in-law is at home, I will not enter your inner house to serve you two, and let those two boys close their eyes."

"Really?" Anan couldn't help but looked up at Nanny Su.

Nanny Su smiled and tapped her head, frowning and saying, "You are a girl, but you don't know how to be ashamed. Be more reserved!"

Anan smiled and was busy tidying up the invitations on the table, his brows slightly frowned.

"What's wrong, girl?" Bai Shao hurried over and asked her.

She sighed softly and looked out the window. It was a sunny summer sky just now, but now it was raining with thunder and lightning, which was a bit scary.

"My son-in-law went to court on horseback, I'm afraid he won't be able to come back. Go outside and tell the servants to harness the carriage and go pick him up!" Nanny Su stepped forward and gave the order. Her nervous look made Anan laugh. "He has seen all kinds of swordplay, but it's just a little storm. He won't be able to come back? You're just making him laugh."

Nanny Su lifted her ear and shook her head, saying, "This girl is such a heartless fool! Your son-in-law loves you, so you should love him well too."

Anan couldn't help but laugh: "Don't worry too much. If you can't tell the difference between love and care, he will get annoyed soon."

Nanny Su shook her head and sighed, talking about her own nonsense, but she still didn't go out to tell the servant. She suddenly remembered something and hurried back into the house, saying that she didn't know what was left outside to dry in the sun.

Anan stood under the porch with a cup of hot tea, watching the rain. Thinking of the hypocritical smiles of Ge and Hong Cu yesterday, her heart tightened. Bai Shao put a cloak on her and said softly, "Miss, move inside. Be careful not to get your clothes wet and catch a cold."

"Tell me, what exactly is his plan?" Anan looked back at her confused face and explained, "He told me last night not to go if I don't like the banquet."

Bai Shao shook her head. "I wonder if the uncle doesn't know what the girl wants to do? I heard Bi'an making fun of the uncle the other day, saying that he complained every day that the girl had too many social engagements and didn't have time to accompany him!"

"How could he not know what I'm going to do!" After saying this, even Bai Shao herself might not believe it. Anan shook his head.
