Reborn as a Merchant Girl, the General's Beloved

When several maids saw Anan hugging Madam Ge tightly, they all rushed forward and surrounded the two of them.

Mrs. Ge had a bad temper to begin with. If any servant got close to her, she would definitely get furious. But who would have thought that Anan would hold her tightly and refuse to let go. The maids who came up couldn't tell whether they were her own people or Anan's, and they beat, pinched, and pulled them, leaving them without any chance of fighting back.

The women in the room were fighting in a chaotic mess, and even Hong Chu couldn't figure out who had the upper hand. Hong Chu was afraid of being hit in the stomach, so he could only ask the people who were with him to rush over to help, and he was so anxious that he kept stamping his feet.

It was not until everyone was tired of fighting and lying on the ground that Hong Cu saw his mother, Madam Ge, who was already in a state of disgrace. Her hair was all messed up, her clothes were torn, and there was even a slap mark on her cheek. She was gasping for breath like a dead fish. Although Anan was pinned down, he still held her tightly and kept shouting, "Countess, I'm here to protect you!"

Hong Cu came to his senses in a panic, and hurriedly walked over carefully to pull Mrs. Ge up. The maid they brought with them also managed to crawl behind the two of them. At this point, the people in the room were completely separated.

Hong Cu was frightened at this moment. The other side had so many more people than them! When she looked back, she saw that all the maids she brought with her were injured. She immediately shouted angrily: "Annan, you are so brave! How dare you attack us!"

Anan got up from the ground, shrugged his shoulders, and smiled without saying anything.

"You openly beat your elders. Anyone in Kyoto can drown you with a spit!" Hong Chu's face flushed red and he held onto Mrs. Ge.

Mrs. Ge had no strength left at this moment. She was just gasping for breath and felt pain all over her body, but she couldn't tell where it hurt.

"You are joking, young lady." Anan sniffed and said honestly, "Everyone in Kyoto knows that the Earl's Mansion cannot tolerate a girl like me from a lowly family. I chased her to Mingxiangju to smash the imperial gifts. Everyone saw it at Madam Ma's funeral and wanted to beat me to death on the spot. But I have always been well-behaved and quiet, and I always obeyed the Countess's orders. No one would believe what you said even if someone said it."

At this point, Anan smiled slyly, "Besides, why did the Countess and the eldest girl come to my house to cause trouble during the New Year? Although we are related, we haven't been in touch for more than ten years. I'm afraid that no matter how many excuses we make, it will not be enough to cover up the gossip."

"You!" Hong Chu's face turned red with anger.

"By the way, the last time Madam smashed up Mingxiangju and humiliated me, it was the Earl who personally bought news to cover it up. I wonder if the Earl can buy more explosive news to cover up for you two this time?" Anan smiled particularly happily. Compared to the embarrassed Countess, she was unharmed.

"Do you think all of us are fake?" Hong Cu was furious.

"Well, the eldest lady did remind me." Anan sighed and said, "The Countess also taught me earlier that it doesn't matter if such a lowly person dies. How about this, to avoid trouble, why not kill them together and make it count."

The old women had already been beaten to a pulp, with blood coming out of their mouths and noses. They all looked miserable. When they heard Anan say this, they were so scared that they started crying and shouting, and ran away without a trace.

Originally, she thought this matter was shameful, so she didn't even bring her closest maid. But this time, all the maids ran away, leaving only the two of them.
