Traveling through troubled times: Princess disguises herself as a man and becomes a soldier to earn

When Matchmaker Jin heard her say this, her face changed and she felt uneasy. This reaction was not right. She shouldn't be so eager to match the horoscopes and meet the girl as soon as she said that.

Why does her attitude seem a little reluctant?

Her son was just a rude and reckless man. It was a great blessing for him to have a girl willing to repay him for saving her life. How could he have any objections? What went wrong?

No, she is definitely making fun of herself. She is probably not satisfied with the dowry.

Matchmaker Jin said with a half-smile, "Since Madam has said so, then I naturally have nothing to say. I will go back and tell the girl that Mr. Mo only saved her for the sake of saving her, and he did not marry her to me."

Qiao Shu seemed not to have heard her sarcastic words, and her expression was normal: "Okay, Matchmaker Jin, take care. You must tell the truth. If you exaggerate, it will spread rumors that are unfavorable to my son."

"I won't do that. You know what I mean."

The pressure emanating from his body was something a matchmaker could not resist. Her face looked a little ugly, and she lowered her head and said word by word: "I understand... I understand, Madam, rest assured, I will tell the truth."

Matchmaker Jin threatened: "If the girl doesn't want to, it only means that she is not destined to be with Mr. Mo. You can only wait a little longer. I have waited for three years and no girl was willing."

"I think Mr. Mo has gotten used to it. No matter how long he waits, it's just that fate has not come yet..."

"Ah, my belly..."

Qiao Shu's face was as cold as ice. She kicked the man away with murderous eyes. She had been to the battlefield with her husband and had a free and easy personality. Before, for the sake of her son, she could suppress her temper and bear the grievance a little.

This bitch really takes herself too seriously, doesn't she? She's always nagging and needs to be punished. I'm afraid that the bad reputation that the second brother had before was also related to her.

She took a step forward, half-knelt, stretched out her hand to pinch her chin, and sneered: "Matchmaker Jin, you'd better pray that the previous unfavorable rumors about my son did not come from your mouth, otherwise this lady will tear your mouth apart."

"Tell me everything when you get back. If you find any fabrication, I will never let you off easily."

Matchmaker Jin was so frightened that she trembled all over and begged for mercy again and again: "Yes, yes, Madam, whatever you say is what I will tell the girl when I go back. I will tell her everything."

Seeing this, Qiao Shu's expression changed, and she said gently and kindly, "Well, that's good. I knew that Matchmaker Jin was a smart person and must understand what I mean. Hurry up and get up. It's so cold, why are you still sitting on the ground?"

"Cuiwei, why don't you help him up quickly? If someone sees us, they will think that the general's mansion is bullying him, which is so bad."

...You knew it was bad, yet you still used such harsh tactics. It was obvious that you didn't care. Wow, why didn't I realize before that this person was so scary.

Matchmaker Jin stumbled away. Cuiwei looked at her from behind and whispered, "Madam, I hope she won't say anything nonsense when she goes out. The second young master's reputation can't be ruined any more. How can he find a good girl in the future?"

Qiao Shu waved her hand: "It's nothing. Anyway, I can't count on her in the future. If she can't control her mouth, I'll have someone go and give her a beating every night. If she doesn't learn her lesson, she'll suffer more and she'll know it naturally."

"It's useless for this man to be nice to her. He is an ungrateful person. He is just showing off to the second son. What kind of person is that? Is my son so bad? He even made a widow last time."

The more I thought about it, the angrier I got: "Humph, if I hadn't secretly gone to see it, it would have been a huge joke. Those who knew would have thought it was marrying a daughter-in-law, and those who didn't would have thought it was coming in to be my sister."

Qiao Shu clenched her fists in anger, thinking that she had gone too easy on him just now.

Cuiwei echoed, "This matchmaker Jin is too wicked. Not to mention that they are a perfect match, at least they can't detect too big a difference. That's clearly an insult to the Mo family. It's too much."

"Madam, it's good that you are like this. There are so many matchmakers in the capital. If you don't choose her, you can find someone else. There will always be a truly good matchmaker."

"Well, has the old man gone to bed?"

"No, I'm outside in the sun. Madam has to go look for the ancestors."

Qiao Shu stood up and said, "I have something to tell the old ancestor. I'm afraid she has to come forward. Alas, giving birth to a troublesome son is worrying. Cuiwei, when you find a man in the future, you must find a good-looking one."

"At least if I give birth to a son, I don't have to worry about him being ugly and no one wanting him."

Cuiwei's mouth twitched, and she immediately thought of the second young master. The madam should be talking about him. The second young master's figure was different from the other two young masters. He was estimated to be two meters tall.

Like a giant, it is so scary that people dare not approach it.

Qiao Shu came to the old lady's yard and walked over with a smile on her face: "The old ancestor is basking in the sun."

"Shu'er is here, come and sit down, but what's the matter?"

"Well, there is a small matter that requires the old ancestor to step in."

"Okay, sit down and talk slowly."

After Matchmaker Jin returned, she reacted with a gloomy face and walked into a small alley. She stood at the door and knocked. Soon the door was opened and she walked in.

"Miss Bai, I'm here to return the matchmaker's money. I can't negotiate this marriage, so you should find someone else."

Bai Xianxian came out of the house and asked in confusion when she saw this: "Why? I heard that the Mo family had been looking for you before, wanting to see the noble ladies from the capital, and in the end, even the peasant girls were willing."

"As long as the other party has a decent character, Mr. Mo will be satisfied."

Matchmaker Jin sneered, "Yes, if you want Mr. Mo to be satisfied, you obviously don't satisfy him and he doesn't want to be with you, otherwise why would he go through so much trouble."

"I've talked about so many families, but there are very few that are as hardworking as the Mohists. I really have no choice. I'll give you this silver in exchange. I'll deduct five taels as compensation."

"Five taels? Matchmaker Jin only made a trip and didn't accomplish anything, how could she accept money?"

Bai Xianxian spoke bluntly.

Matchmaker Jin could no longer suppress her anger and said angrily, "What do you mean? You know I was in the Mo family and was... Forget it, those things have nothing to do with you. Anyway, I won't make this trip in vain."

"If you have the ability, you can go to the government office to sue me. If that doesn't work, then these five taels of silver are for running errands for me."

"Okay, let's stop here. You'd better forget about the Mo family. They don't like you, a small family. And the second son of the Mo family doesn't like weak women."

Bai Xianxian watched her leave, clenching the handkerchief in her hand, feeling more and more unwilling. She had never suffered such a defeat before, and if she gave up like this, she would not be able to explain to the Prime Minister.

No matter what, she would try again. As long as the second son of the Mo family didn't get married, she still had a chance. She didn't believe that he would not be attracted to her.

If that doesn't work, then there's only one last resort.
