Oh my god, I became the vicious stepmother of four villains

"Okay, eighty cents." The young man put Xia Yingying's letter in the quick mail box.

Xia Yingying took out strings of copper coins from her purse and handed four strings in total to the young man.

"Count it and see if the number is correct."

The young man took the silver from Xia Yingying and began to count it. Xia Yingying waited for more than a quarter of an hour. Only after the young man counted all the silver and confirmed that the number was correct did Xia Yingying leave.

Military camp in the northern suburbs of Beijing.

"Have any letters been sent from Qingshui County today?" Lu Ziren asked a young soldier beside him.

"No, General." The soldier was a newcomer, specially picked to help Lu Ziren.

He was new here and didn't know that Lu Ziren had been eagerly waiting for Xia Yingying's reply since the day the letter was sent from the capital. He would ask at least once every day whether there was any letter sent from Qingshui County.

There were not many military affairs that required his decision-making, so Lu Ziren had very little time.

When I have nothing to do, I will think about Xia Yingying and the letter that I don’t know whether Xia Yingying has sent or not.

The letter he wrote must have reached Xia Yingying's hands. When Xia Yingying sees the letter he wrote, she will understand his feelings for her. Will Xia Yingying respond?

Alas, he married a fairy wife, but this fairy lived like an ordinary person.

Aren’t goblins omnipotent and can fly into the sky and hide on the ground?

Since Xia Yingying has magic, why doesn't she use it to meet him?

An evil idea suddenly arose in Lu Ziren's mind.

If he exposed Xia Yingying's true identity as a fairy, Xia Yingying would probably not hide the fact that she knew magic in front of him, but would be happy to use magic.

But what if Xia Yingying doesn't want others to know her true identity at all, and he exposes Xia Yingying's biggest secret and angers her, and Xia Yingying leaves Lu Ziren and the children in anger, then he will lose more than he gains.

Hey……

Lu Ziren sighed again.

When the soldier serving beside him heard Lu Ziren's sigh, he couldn't help but move towards the tent.

Many people in the camp have been afraid to confront Lu Ziren these days.

Lu Ziren has been stricter than usual these days. Last time, Lieutenant General Cao lost the competition with Lieutenant General Song. General Lu thought that Lieutenant General Cao was lazy in training, so he imposed a heavier punishment on Lieutenant General Cao, forcing him to train with his subordinates. Lieutenant General Cao was even beaten with thirty military sticks and fined one month's salary.

In the past, General Lu would just ask them to intensify their training for things like this, and he would never punish them physically or deduct their salary. But General Lu did it this time, which is enough to show that General Lu is really too strict.

Especially Lu Ziren, who frowned every day like a devil. Even his closest subordinate, Lieutenant General Wang, did not dare to offend Lu Ziren.

Many soldiers were also cautious when they saw Lu Ziren, fearing that they would be punished by Lu Ziren if they were not careful.

"Deputy General Wang, what happened to General Lu when he returned to Beijing these days? Why is his temperament so different from before?" Lieutenant General Cao asked Deputy General Wang.

Deputy General Wang was also confused and shook his head, but suddenly an idea came to his mind.

After Lu Ziren came to the capital, every time he reported military affairs to Lu Ziren, Lu Ziren would mostly write and draw on paper with a brush, sometimes his brows relaxed, sometimes furrowed, as if he was experiencing a very serious war, which made him dare not even breathe.

After meeting each other several times in a row, he later stopped going in when Lu Ziren was writing. He deliberately found other times to go to see Lu Ziren. Lu Ziren was either working or in a daze.

Could it be that Lu Ziren's change in mood is related to the papers he has written during this period?

Deputy General Wang remembered that Lu Ziren had sent out a thick stack of letters half a month ago, and the letters were sent through the post station in the military camp.

After secretly inquiring, he found out that Lu Ziren sent all the letters to places outside the military camp. Could it be related to his family?

But he had followed Lu Ziren for many years, and he knew that Lu Ziren's family had long since passed away. He was a bachelor in his prime, but he sent so many letters. Could the recipient of the letters be a woman?

Just as Lieutenant General Wang was thinking hard, Lu Ziren went to the place in the military camp where letters were sent.

After the letter was sent, Lu Ziren made three trips every day, causing the soldiers at the mail office to avoid him.

The main reason was that Lu Ziren was too scary. Every time they said that there were no letters sent from Qingshui County, Lu Ziren's face, which was not very kind to begin with, became even darker like a vicious god, and no one dared to provoke him.

Today, the new soldier Xiao Li is on duty at the military camp's mail office. He has also heard about Lu Ziren's deeds, especially the matter of asking about letters in the past few days.

Lu Ziren came to the mailing place and asked Xiao Li, "Are there any letters sent from Qingshui County today?"

"General Lu, there is still no letter sent from Qingshui County today. Why don't you come back in a few days?" The soldier said respectfully to Lu Ziren.

Lu Ziren originally planned to leave if he hadn't heard it, but when he heard the next sentence, his face instantly turned extremely dark.

The air pressure from Lu Ziren was too low, and Xiao Li's heart skipped a beat. Damn it.

Sure enough, Lu Ziren turned around and said to Xiao Li in a low voice, "Why, can't I come to this post station?"

Lu Ziren's tone was a little unfriendly, and it sounded like a powder keg that suddenly exploded.

"General Lu, I...I didn't mean that." Xiao Li was frightened by what Lu Ziren said and hurriedly explained.

"What do you mean by that?" Lu Ziren asked back.

"I... what I mean is... General Lu, you are so busy that it is really troublesome for you to come every day to ask about the letter. Why don't I go to your tent every day to tell you the news of the letter, so you don't have to come every day."

Thinking about how his colleagues had just told him not to talk back to the general, he wondered why he hadn't covered his mouth.

At this time, Xiao Li regretted it very much. He was frightened by Lu Ziren and was sweating all over. He apologized to Lu Ziren with a sad face.

But Lu Ziren's expression did not ease at all, but he did not make things difficult for Xiao Li. He just snorted coldly and strode away.

Xiao Li looked at Lu Ziren's back as he left and secretly breathed a sigh of relief. Well, he finally saved his life.

Lu Ziren didn't have time to think about other things as he had his own troubles.

Alas, it was another day without any letter from Xia Yingying. He was extremely unhappy. Could it be that Xia Yingying really wouldn't send him a letter? Could he really not wait for the letter from Xia Yingying?

Lu Ziren asked this question silently over and over again in his heart, uncertain.

When Lu Ziren returned to the tent, a soldier had already brought him food.

The food in the army was pretty good. This time, Lu Ziren defeated the enemy in one fell swoop and returned to the capital. The emperor ordered a reward for the three armies. The food in the military camp in the capital consisted of four dishes and one soup, which could be considered hearty. Originally, Lu Ziren's kitchen had prepared other food, but Lu Ziren ate and lived with the soldiers in the barracks and never asked for special treatment.

Today's dishes are braised pork, stir-fried pork, cabbage and tofu, braised bamboo shoots, and winter melon soup.

He had eaten all these dishes before, but none of them tasted as good as the ones Xia Yingying cooked.

The only special thing is that his food includes beef jerky and pork jerky.

All the cakes and biscuits he brought earlier have been eaten, but the beef jerky and pork are long-lasting, so he eats a little bit every day, and now there is some left.

He hid the rest secretly, otherwise if others saw them, they would definitely divide them up. "Please vote"
