The Domineering General and His Post-it Lady

Ever since Second Madam Ma Xiahe was confined to her room by Fan Ziren, the other madams have been quiet and have been living their own lives in peace and order. Apart from frequently staying at Lou Yunsi's villa, Fan Ziren has not visited the villas of other madams.

The first wife Zhao Chunlei also began to see through it and knew that Fan Ziren's heart was not with her. No matter what method she used, Fan Ziren would not have a good impression of her, just like the second wife Ma Xiahe, it would only backfire and end up being confined to her.

The maid Xiao Lan often comforts the eldest lady Zhao Chunlei. Other ladies have no children and their lives are even more difficult, but the eldest lady Zhao Chunlei has a daughter. If she raises her daughter, she can marry a good husband with the title of general's daughter. Maybe if she marries a powerful man in the city, the eldest lady Zhao Chunlei will be able to gain status as a mother by virtue of her daughter, and Lou Yunsi will have to give her some respect then.

So, First Lady Zhao Chunlei relaxed her mind and no longer thought about competing for the general's favor. She only wanted to raise her daughter, teach her music, chess, calligraphy and painting, and cultivate her into a well-educated and well-mannered woman.

The other wives had no children and had never received the general's love since they entered the palace. All their resentment had long since disappeared with time. The only benefit of them staying in the mansion was that their families were respected by the locals because of the general, and it would be much easier to get things done.

Old Madam Fan was very worried about the current situation in the mansion. She lamented that Fan Ziren had six wives but failed to bring more grandchildren to the Fan family. Every time she attended a banquet invited by others, other families had a room full of children, but the Fan family seemed a little deserted.

Whenever someone asked Mrs. Fan if her family had any plans to have a baby, Mrs. Fan could only laugh it off. She wanted to have a baby, but she was powerless.

Old Madam Fan had thought of various ways to marry Fan Ziren one woman after another, but there was no sign of a large family, which made Old Madam Fan very melancholy.

Madam Fan asked her maid Xiaoyu to discuss the matter. Xiaoyu explained to Madam Fan, "Madam, the previous wives that the general married were not favored by the general, nor were they the ones that the general liked. I heard that the general dotes on the current Sixth Madam very much. The general has done many things for the Sixth Madam, and everyone has seen it. The general now stays in the Sixth Madam's villa every night. Maybe he will receive good news soon."

Old Madam Fan was still very anxious and didn't want to wait too long. She was wondering if there was any way to help Lou Yunsi get pregnant faster. Old Madam Fan asked her maid Xiaoyu to invite Master Qingzhen from Qingliang Temple.

The next day, Lou Yunsi and Luo Yun went for a stroll outside the villa. When they returned to the gate of the villa, a man wearing a mask and strange clothes suddenly appeared and chanted some unknown spell in front of Lou Yunsi. Lou Yunsi quickly grabbed the sand on the ground and threw it at the strange man in front of him.

The strange man suddenly shouted: "My eyes!"

The maid Xiaoyu rushed out with the shout, and seeing the strange man in front of Lou Yunsi, she covered her eyes and said to Lou Yunsi nervously: "Sixth Madam, he is the Muslim master of Qingliang Temple!"

Lou Yunsi immediately stepped forward to brush off the sand that Master Qingzhen had just sprinkled on him, and quickly apologized: "Master, I'm sorry! Why did you pretend to be a ghost and scare me? I thought you were a lunatic who just appeared out of nowhere."

Master Qingzhen stepped back awkwardly, tidying up his clothes and glasses. The maid Xiaoyu said, "The old lady specially invited Master Qingzhen to come here to perform a ritual for you, the Sixth Madam, so that you can have a son soon!"

Lou Yunsi said bluntly: "Xiaoyu, this method is not to make people have children early, but to make their souls leave their bodies! Master Qingzhen just scared me so much that my soul almost flew away!"

Master Qingzhen quickly clasped his hands together and kept repeating the word "sin". Master Qingzhen also explained to Lou Yunsi why he had to stand at the door and mutter to himself, because this was an ancient legend.

Legend has it that there was a couple who had no children. One day, a master passed by their home. The master went into the couple's home and asked for some dry food and water.

When the master was chatting with the couple, he knew what they wanted, so he asked the woman to go out the door and then slowly walked in.

When the woman walked in, the master was performing a ritual at the door, chanting a spell to inject new life into the woman. Not long after, the woman gave birth to a baby boy. This is the legendary method of injecting new life.

After listening to the explanations of Master Qingzhen and the maid Xiaoyu, Lou Yunsi thought: What a bullshit Dafa! It almost scared people out of their souls. How can it inject new life? It's more like taking away life!

Lou Yunsi pulled the maid Xiaoyu aside and said, "Xiaoyu, this Infusion of New Life is extremely powerful and has a strong deterrent effect. Just use it once, don't do it again!"

The maid Xiaoyu thought to herself that the master would only perform the ritual once, so there was no point in thinking too much. If the old lady had not ordered her to do so, she would not have bothered to invite the master.

A few days later, Old Madam Fan asked her maid Xiaoyu to find out if there was any news from Lou Yunsi. The maid Xiaoyu came back and reported that there was no news at all.

Old Madam Fan became anxious again and asked her maid Xiaoyu to invite the abbot of Guanyin Temple to pray for a child for Lou Yunsi.

The maid Xiaoyu brought the abbot of Guanyin Temple to Lou Yunsi's villa and explained her purpose to her. Lou Yunsi was helpless, but since this was arranged by Old Madam Fan, it was difficult to refuse, so she could only follow her arrangement.

The abbot of Guanyin Temple took out a white jade bottle, then took out a handful of grass, dipped it in the water in the bottle, and sprinkled it on Lou Yunsi.

Lou Yunsi thought: This old lady is crazy about grandchildren! If this is possible, everyone can have ten or eight children.

After the abbot of Guanyin Temple left, Lou Yunsi asked her maid Xiaoyu to stay, and then asked if it would cost money to invite these masters. When Xiaoyu said that they would only be invited if they paid a lot of money, Lou Yunsi was surprised and said, "Xiaoyu, I can also pretend to be such a master. Please ask the old lady to give me the money, and I will do it myself!"

Xiaoyu was stunned and thought: How can you do it yourself? You should give birth to a baby quickly, otherwise the old lady will ask me to find all kinds of masters, which is so tiring.

Seeing that the maid Xiaoyu did not respond, Lou Yunsi did not say anything.

A few days later, Old Madam Fan asked her maid Xiaoyu to check on Lou Yunsi to see if there was any news. But when she came back, there was still no news. Old Madam Fan was considering whether there was any other way to make Lou Yunsi conceive a grandson as soon as possible so that she could fulfill her wish.

In the following days, Madam Fan urged Lou Yunsi to have a baby intensively, using all kinds of methods. Lou Yunsi had no choice but to accept it, but the pressure on her heart became greater and greater. Madam Fan urged her to have a baby so desperately that her original hope was strangled.
