The fourth girl made the whole family cry again

Zhou Xixi had no intention of sympathizing with anyone.

Her fate in her previous life was not good either.

In her sleep, she realized that after her death, she would be squeezed out of her last bit of use by her family. This feeling had been bothering her these days.

Although the fiancée has the support of the eldest princess, his status is embarrassing.

Moreover, from beginning to end, this marriage has been vague and devoid of any sense of reality!

Everything seems to be going well in the first year of life, but when a girl is married thousands of miles away and has no parents by her side, how can she fill her lonely heart?

As the eldest daughter in this house, what can the eldest girl do?

Once he was wrong, he was wrong everywhere. Although the eldest princess took care of him a little, but during this time, he was only kissing whoever he was.

The best thing is to be the second son of Ancheng Bofu as a stepmother.

But such a marriage is also a disaster.

Therefore, when everything does not go as planned, Zhou Xixi can only accept it.

The haircut ceremony was very grand, with numerous princes, nobles and ladies coming.

Zhou Xixi was manipulated like a puppet on strings for most of the day, and in the afternoon she secretly walked out of the general's mansion.

It’s impossible not to go out!

The library is about to open, and the billiards hall and chess and card room are also being renovated.

Zhou Xixi was thinking about the money she had spent, and she was anxious to get her money back!

After going around in a circle, Zhou Xixi was about to go back to the General's Mansion, but she heard Wednesday talking outside the car.

"Fourth girl, Uncle Murong is in the teahouse in front and wants to invite the girl to meet him."

Zhou Xixi's face immediately turned red.

The two of them were officially engaged, and it was not impossible for them to meet in private.

Just thinking about that person makes Zhou Xixi's heartbeat speed up unconsciously.

The meeting place was in a private room on the second floor of the teahouse.

Murong Bo took on a case from out of town half a month ago and may have just returned.

Zhou Xixi looked at his face that was obviously dusty and knew that he would come to see her as soon as he came back.

"I went to the General's Mansion and met with the Second Master. He said that you were out, but was it easy?"

Zhou Xixi was really not used to the gentle attitude towards her from the person in front of her.

Zhou Xixi lowered her head and tucked away the broken hair on her temples.

"It's all good. Look, I've gained weight."

Zhou Xixi ate and slept at home during this period. When she woke up, she listened to Tong Bao's gossip. She couldn't be too happy. It would be strange if she didn't gain weight.

Looking at it like this, Murong Bo really found that her complexion had improved a lot.

"You, on the other hand, were thrown into the wilderness to survive? Why did you end up like this!"

Although he is still handsome, his unshaven appearance looks like a smaller version of Li Kui's face.

Murong Bo rubbed his face and finally felt real about the person in front of him.

"Hi! I went out to handle a case. I was afraid that the girl would forget me on Thursday and come back here without even bothering to dress up! If it bothers you, you can forget about it in your dream when you go home at night!"

Zhou Xixi saw Murong Bo's poisonous tongue again.

"How dare you? Not only will I not forget it, but I will have to draw it when I get back. When you bully me in the future, I will show it to others. Our famous and suave Mr. Murong in the capital also has such a sloppy side!"

Murong Bo was amused and took out a long box from his arms.

"I hope you can make it in time!"

Zhou Xixi was greatly moved. She had laughed at the other party just now, but it turned out that he was in a hurry to send gifts on her and Ji's day.

Zhou Xixi opened the box in front of Murong Bo.

There is a layer of red brocade inside, with a gold hairpin lying on it. The gold hairpin is of average style and even a little rough in workmanship.

Zhou Xixi touched the peony flower shape and realized something. She looked towards Murong Bo's right hand, and sure enough she saw that the five fingers of his right hand with clear joints were covered with knife marks.

The knife marks were scratches. They didn't look serious, but they were densely packed. "Did you carve it yourself?"

Zhou Xixi was surprised.

"Well, it's not pure gold. It's made of sandalwood on the inside, and someone made it gilded on the outside. Do you like it?"

Zhou Xixi nodded, bit her lip and said nothing, but put the hairpin directly on her head.

In ancient times, men gave women gold hairpins, and the meaning was self-evident.

Zhou Xixi didn't care about his straightforwardness, and the response made the other party happy.

Sure enough, Murong Bo's peach blossom eyes immediately lit up.

The two of them should not sit for long periods of time. Zhou Xixi was going back to the General's Mansion, and Murong Bo was going to the Yamen for business.

The two said goodbye in the teahouse.

When I returned to the general's mansion, I happened to meet the old general returning home with a letter from his family.

Zhou Xixi went to Ci'an Hall first.

The old lady temporarily took back the power of the central government in the mansion and asked the second lady to assist.

When Zhou Xixi arrived, the second lady was opening letters in the hall.

Zhou Xixi saluted the two of them and sat next to the second lady.

The old lady had poor eyesight and did not know much about reading, so she asked the second lady to read the family letters for her.

"...Mom, my father said that he will come back after winning this battle! The emperor has approved my father's memorial and said that he will come home to preside over the marriage of the girl in the family!"

A month ago, the old lady told the old general about the marriages of several girls in the family.

At that time, the eldest girl had already exchanged updates with the Prince of Rui County. The old lady was happy and wanted to tell the good news to the north.

Unexpectedly, something happened in the family, and the old lady sent another letter, and it was urgent. The envelope of this family letter also had the words "urgent" on it.

It is estimated that the old general already knows what happened at home these days.

Ugh!

The old lady couldn't help but sigh.

"It'll be great if you can come back! Your father-in-law was hit by an arrow a year ago and his body has never recovered. Let's give him a break this time when he comes back!"

The second lady couldn't help but worry.

"Can the superiors agree?"

The old general is only in his fifties, but there are still old generals in their sixties or seventies who go into battle!

The old lady was also worried. In the blink of an eye, she saw Zhou Xixi sitting quietly beside her.

"We will inevitably ask for help when the time comes, and we can also ask for help from the eldest princess! The fourth girl will also fill in a message then! I believe the higher-ups will consider it for the sake of the old general's loyalty to the country over the years!"

This was already mentioned to Zhou Xixi, and it was hard for Zhou Xixi to shirk it.

"Yes, when the time comes, if the grandparents have any ideas, the granddaughter will naturally tell the eldest princess."

The old lady didn't expect the fourth girl to be so easy to talk to. She was stunned for a moment, and then cast a pleased look at her.

In the face of major issues of right and wrong, he can clearly distinguish family interests from personal grudges. No wonder he caught the eyes of the eldest princess!

On the way back to Zhulan Garden, Zhou Xixi asked about the war in the north.

Tongbao looked through the recent radio wave detection database.

There is indeed news over there.

[Host, something is not right! 】

【What's wrong? 】

System: [The barbarian enemies are really disgusting. Even though they were defeated, they did not forget to disgust our Northern Dynasty army!

They were preparing to withdraw their troops, but they actually dug a large cesspit within the surrender negotiation area, filled it with excrement soup, and waited for the old general to lead his men there, then dug one foot in and waited to see who would laugh! 】

Zhou Xixi: [Damn! Isn’t my grandfather really a master who only wields a broadsword and has no brains? A human cesspool has been dug up to the door of his house. He doesn't know that even if he returns victorious and has the stain of jumping into a cesspit, he will be laughed at to death for the rest of his life, right? 】

The old general who was far away in the north put on a brand new armor, shaved his beard, and rubbed lard on his face, just waiting for this moment.

Suddenly this sentence came into my mind.
