Kick out the general as soon as you are reborn

Liu Yanyan had a blank expression on her face. She walked around the screen partition, came out and said to the old lady, "Mother-in-law, Rou'er is so kind. She knew I didn't have time, so she took the initiative to ask to take care of Beichen. I feel much more relieved to have her take care of Beichen. I will go back now to see if there is any news about Tianshan Snow Lotus."

The old lady looked at Lin Rou who was following her, and said with full approval, "I watched Rou'er grow up, how could she not be a good person! I feel relieved to have Rou'er taking care of Beichen." In the future, she can let Rou'er marry Beichen, which would be the best of both worlds.

Only Lin Rou lowered her head to hide the impatience on her face. She didn't want to care about Gu Beichen, a cripple.

Gu Beichen didn't notice Lin Rou's displeasure at all. He still held Lin Rou's hand and looked at her tenderly with eyes so soft that they seemed to be dripping with tears.

The old lady looked at the two holding hands through the screen, nodded with satisfaction, and said to Liu Yanyan, "Go, find the herbs as soon as possible and cure Beichen, so that you can have a child, so that you can have someone to rely on."

Liu Yanyan lowered her head obediently, feeling a dull pain in her heart. Thinking of her child who was killed before he even saw the sun, she was filled with rage. She forced a smile and said, "Mother-in-law, I'll go back first. I'll find the Tianshan Snow Lotus as soon as possible and make him get better soon."

The old lady nodded, watched Liu Yanyan walk away, and asked Zhao Ma to support her and went back, leaving Lin Rou behind so that they could get along well.

Liu Yanyan asked Yuzhu to support her, walked out of the mansion, got on the carriage, and came to the house in the backyard of Zhuangyuan Building.

Butler Liu nervously held two sandalwood carved boxes in his hands, and walked over and said, "Miss, the upper box contains the Tianshan Snow Lotus that I collected, and the lower box contains the Tianshan Snow Lotus that someone else imitated." After saying that, he placed the two sandalwood boxes on the table.

Yuzhu walked forward and wiped it with a handkerchief, then gently opened the box. Wisps of cold mist appeared in the box. When the mist dissipated, the exquisite and translucent Tianshan Snow Lotus was revealed, with pieces of ice crystals underneath the snow lotus.

Liu Yanyan nodded. She had seen the Tianshan Snow Lotus in her previous life and knew it was real. She motioned Yuzhu to open the box next to her.

Liu Yanyan looked at the almost identical Tianshan Snow Lotus, nodded, and said with a sneer on her lips, "Spread the news to the old lady of the General's Mansion and lure her to buy the Tianshan Snow Lotus. I want to see whether money is more important or her beloved son is more important. I want to see if she will watch her beloved son die."

Butler Liu nodded and said, "Miss, I know how to arrange it, don't worry."

Liu Yanyan chuckled and said, "Leave it to Uncle Liu. I have no worries at all."

Housekeeper Liu looked at the young lady's smile, and his heart was filled with hatred. He had watched the child grow up, and suffered too much in the general's mansion. "Leave it to me, old servant, and you don't have to worry. Just take good care of it."

Liu Yanyan nodded and watched Butler Liu leave. She took out the divorce documents she had not yet finished writing, and then she had an idea in her mind and curled the corners of her mouth slightly.

Early next morning

Liu Yanyan was in front of the dressing table, drawing her eyebrows gently with ink. Then she heard Aunt Zhao's voice from outside the door, and Liu Yanyan frowned slightly.

Yuzhu took the hairpin and put it on her. Yuzhen went out to open the door and brought in Zhao Ma.

Liu Yanyan looked at her finished makeup and said, "Madam Zhao, what brings you to my courtyard so early in the morning?"

Madam Zhao said anxiously, "Madam, the old lady wants to see you. Please come over now."

Liu Yanyan thought to herself, it seems that the old lady knows about Xuelian, and said with a faint smile on her face, "Okay, let's go now, so that mother-in-law won't have to wait for a long time."

Liu Yanyan put her hand on Yuzhu's hand and slowly walked towards the old lady's yard, with several guards following behind.

I only heard Aunt Zhao urging from the side, "Madam, please hurry up, it may be too late if you are late."

Liu Yanyan cried, "Okay, is mother-in-law in poor health? How could this be? Wasn't she fine yesterday? My poor mother-in-law! Wuuuuu."

Aunt Zhao hurriedly explained, "No, no, the old lady is fine, please leave quickly."

The corners of Liu Yanyan's mouth curled up imperceptibly. She quickened her pace and came to the old lady's room. She saw the old lady sitting upright on a pear wood chair, drinking tea nervously.

Before Liu Yanyan had time to salute, the old lady helped her up. "We are a family, why are you being so polite? Come, sit next to mother, sit here."

Liu Yanyan had no choice but to sit upright on the pearwood chair beside her, hiding the smile in her eyes, and said, "Mother-in-law, you called me over in a hurry. What's the matter? I just got up. Is there anything wrong, mother-in-law? I'll go get a doctor for you."

The old lady quickly shook her head and refused. After thinking it over again and again, she sighed and said, "We are all family. I will tell you straight. The Tianshan Snow Lotus has been found."

Liu Yanyan's face was full of joy. She held the old lady's hand tightly and said, "Mother-in-law, where is the Tianshan Snow Lotus? Bring it here and I will take it to cure my husband right away. He will be well soon. He is a general, and he will be a great general in the future!"

The old lady could only hold Liu Yanyan's hand and ask her to calm down. "Yanyan, I won't beat around the bush with you. The medicinal herbs have been found, but the problem is that we don't have enough silver. They want 5 taels, but we only have 2 taels at home, and we can't afford the remaining 3 taels." After saying that, she looked at the old lady with an embarrassed look on her face.

Liu Yanyan looked embarrassed and said, "Mother-in-law, I pawned my dowry, and I don't have that much silver! The most I can take out is 3 taels. What should I do? What should I do? What should I do with Beichen?" You old woman, you want me to pay for taels of silver by myself.

The old lady was unwilling to give in and said, "Can't you ask your family for some subsidy? The Duke's Mansion..."

Liu Yanyan cried heartbrokenly, wiping away tears as she said, "My father has gone to provide disaster relief and has taken all the money in the house with him. I can't even get any money out!"

Thinking about her future as a royal concubine, the old lady gritted her teeth and said, "Write me an IOU and I'll sign it. I'll have to sell your dowry first, and I'll definitely pay it back to you in the future."

Liu Yanyan nodded helplessly, her eyes red and swollen, and walked to the table on the side, using a wolf-hair brush, she wrote an IOU, gently blew the ink dry, and then took it to the old lady, saying, "Mother-in-law is the same as before, please sign it."

The old lady forced herself to maintain a smile, picked up the pen and wrote her name crookedly, then handed it to Liu Yanyan, "Yanyan, take it. Mother will definitely return it all to you in the future. I will not treat you unfairly. From now on, you are my biological daughter."

Liu Yanyan took the IOU reluctantly, her heart pounding like thunder. She folded the note carefully and said, "Mother-in-law, I will go sell my dowry and bring the silver. Don't worry, there's no need to rush." ​​After that, she turned and left.

Return to Guiranju

Liu Yanyan ordered Yuzhu, "Yuzhu, Yuzhen, take all the dowry in my storeroom and pawn it at the Liu Family Pawn Shop."

Yuzhu and Yuzhen nodded in agreement, and hurriedly ordered the maids and servants to open the mistress's dowry warehouse, organize the things, and carry them out one by one openly.

When she met curious people on the street, Yuzhu stopped to explain carefully, "General Gu is sick and there is not enough money to buy medicine. Madam is going to sell her dowry to buy medicine for the general! She said she must save the general."

The story of Liu Yanyan selling her dowry to save the general became a hot topic along the way. Word spread quickly, and half of the capital knew that Madam Liu was deeply in love with General Gu. In order to cure him, she even sold her dowry to support herself.
