Chapter 3 Returning to the Palace
At dawn the next day, the front yard of the General's Mansion became lively.

Manager Li followed his wife's instructions early in the morning and waited here for the general's return. Sure enough, he saw a familiar figure and horses approaching!
"It's the general, it's the general!"

Guanshi Li is the old man of the front yard. He is quite old. He was a follower of the old lady in the early years. Later, Guo Liangxian was promoted by King Xian, and it was natural for Guanshi Li to become the chief steward of the general's mansion, in charge of the trivial affairs of the front yard.

The schedule was supposed to be yesterday, but Guo Liangxian returned home at this time, and his wife's prediction was indeed accurate.

Manager Li happily came over to lead the horse, but unexpectedly discovered that there was another woman behind the general. She was as slender as a jade from a small family.

"This is Manager Li in our mansion."

Guo Liangxian jumped off his horse, turned around, helped the woman down, and specially introduced her.

Seeing the general holding hands with another woman, Manager Li suddenly felt that something was wrong. He felt panicked, but he did not ask in detail, but said with a smile,
"Everything has been arranged in the mansion. General, please go in."

Guo Liangxian nodded and pulled Lin Yaner towards the house.

The crackling of firecrackers sounded!

It was originally to celebrate the general's return home, but to Lin Yan'er, it seemed like he was welcoming her.

"General..."

Lin Yan'er looked at Guo Liangxian with a worried look on her face, a nervous and slightly frightened look on her face, which instantly aroused his protective desire.

He held her in his arms and comforted her, "It's okay, I will make the decision for you."

Manager Li handed over the horses to the servants in the mansion and followed him. He was disgusted when he saw Lin Yaner's Yanliu style!

General Cai introduced Manager Li just now, but Lin Yan'er didn't even glance at him or take him as the chief manager of the mansion seriously.

Just because the general likes him, can he be arrogant?

"The old lady hasn't woken up yet, so she probably started when she heard the noise." Manager Li walked over and said with a smile.

Guo Liangxian frowned, "Who asked you to set off the firecrackers?"

Manager Li said, "It was arranged by my wife. We were supposed to celebrate the general's return to the palace last night. All the delicious food was prepared. Unfortunately, the general went to the palace for a banquet and did not come."

Guo Liangxian understood clearly that this wife seemed to be quite generous.

He was about to take Lin Yan'er in his arms and go to the main hall to have a rest and wait for people from the mansion to show up. Unexpectedly, on the way there, he happened to bump into Yuan Xueyue.

Both sides were immediately surprised.

Manager Li stepped forward and said, "Madam, the general just came back. You heard the sound of firecrackers and came over. I'm sorry for disturbing Madam."

Yuan Xueyue shook her head with a smile and said calmly, "It's okay. Manager Li, please go and ask the kitchen to prepare a meal earlier. Make it more generous."

Manager Li didn't expect his wife to come over so quickly. He wanted to explain it in the past, but now he could only let his wife and the general face it alone.

Manager Li slipped away, leaving only Yuan Xueyue and her husband opposite, who was holding another woman in his arms.

This situation is quite embarrassing.

Lin Yan'er showed no intention of struggling at all, and there was a hint of pride in the corner of her mouth!
Facing her husband Guo Liangxian's silent gaze, Yuan Xueyue stepped forward calmly and said,

"We sincerely welcome the general back home."

Guo Liangxian was very surprised. Why didn't she ask the woman next to her about her situation first?
He said, "Thank you for your hard work. The person next to you will explain it to you later."

The meaning is obvious, the two of them are hugging each other, taking the spotlight.

The same was true in the previous life. However, Yuan Xueyue in the previous life asked heart-breakingly and made all kinds of ugly appearances, which made her disgusted!
Now, all that is left is to treat it calmly and live up to the chance of rebirth given by God.

Cuiping on the side was shocked. How could the general hug another woman in front of his wife?
Where did this woman come from?
Yuan Xueyue nodded unhurriedly, "Okay, it's not easy for the general to return. Let's go and rest first. Cuiping will serve tea."

Cuiping went to make arrangements depressedly.

In the main hall, Lin Yan'er looked at the mansion's unique high beams, large courtyard, mansion, murals, and verandahs. It took time to walk in. Her eyes revealed longing and expectation!
The maids came in one after another to serve tea, first to the general and then to Lin Yan'er.When they saw their niece for the first time, they were also surprised.

Little did they know that before the maid stepped out of the door, Lin Yaner immediately picked up the tea cup and threw it away screaming because it was so hot!

"what!"

Bang, bang, bang!
The tea cup broke and the tea spilled all over the floor.

Guo Liangxian immediately stood up and came over to check, took Lin Yaner's injured hand and shouted!
"Why are you so careless?" Guo Liangxian's eyes were full of heartache.

This scene happened to be seen by Yuan Xueyue who came in.

The maid froze in embarrassment and was scolded by Guo Liangxian, "How do you do things? How dare you bring such hot tea?"

Yuan Xueyue came over and said,
"Don't blame them. The general came back so early, and the maids didn't have time to prepare just the right tea. Most people who know me will sit down for a while before drinking. Is this girl too impatient?"

The implication is that even if you want to rise to the top, you have to slow down.

It's a pity that Lin Yan'er's ambition will not let this opportunity pass so easily.

"General~ My hands hurt so much! I'm just thirsty."

Lin Yaner pouted and said aggrievedly, with pitiful eyes.

Guo Liangxian glanced at Yuan Xueyue, who was calm. He always felt that something was strange. Is the woman in front of him really his wife who had been staying in the empty house for five years?
"Yan'er comes from a business background, so it's normal to not understand the rules. Hurry up and prepare the tea. Don't neglect the guests!" Guo Liangxian scolded the maids.

The two maids lowered their heads and retreated to prepare.

Yuan Xueyue said, "It turns out that the girl's name is Yan'er. She will no longer be a guest in the house. The general said something wrong."

These words made Guo Liangxian feel guilty.

He felt very guilty. He had thought of waiting for the old lady to come and then announce it together, but unexpectedly, his wife Yuan Xueyue saw it first.

He had nowhere to hide and had no choice but to watch the other party's reaction.

But this lukewarm attitude made Guo Liangxian feel even more guilty.

"Yes, you are right, she will not be a guest from now on." Guo Liangxian lowered his head and said.

Lin Yan'er raised her head confidently, imitating a salute and said, "Greetings, madam."

"Yan'er will serve the general well for his wife from now on."

Lin Yaner looked at her with a declaration of war, but Yuan Xueyue looked back coldly.

"Then thank you Miss Lin. The old lady will come later and I have to ask her for instructions. I hope Miss Lin will behave better."

Guo Liangxian's eyes flashed and he was surprised.

Did she agree?He hasn’t asked for it yet!
Lin Yan'er was also pleasantly surprised. She didn't expect the general's wife to be so easy to negotiate. She immediately came over and wanted to hold Yuan Xueyue's gloves close to her, but she stopped her and dodged him.

"Madam, your belly is so big!"

Lin Yan'er was just embarrassed for a moment, but her face soon became happy.

The sound of footsteps approaching, Brother Xing also heard the sound of firecrackers and came over!

When he entered the door, he saw Guo Liangxian and shouted loudly, "Uncle!"

Guo Liangxian was stunned for a moment. He knew from the letter that his mother had adopted his sister's son, but he didn't expect it to be so soon.
