The general's wife took her child on the road to exile

At this moment, a drama of wife snatching is unfolding in the Xue family mansion of the matriarchal dynasty in the neighboring country of Dayu Dynasty.

"My lady...my lady, I am already yours, please don't abandon me!"

Su Lin, who was lying on the ground, was wearing a white robe and his thin body was trembling. His voice was soft and delicate with an upward inflection at the end, but there was also a hint of cautious urgency.

He didn't bother to straighten the white jade crown on his head, which was already half-crooked. His half-open brocade robe was not yet gathered up, and his fair chest was partially exposed, which was seen by Xue Yuntong, a noble lady in gorgeous clothes, sitting on the high seat.

The Xue family, along with the Liu family and the Murong family, are considered the three most powerful families in the capital.

In a matriarchal society, countless men dreamed of marrying a woman from the Xue family, even if she was born out of wedlock.

Xue Yuntong glanced casually at Su's youngest son, who was crying his eyes out. Her younger sister, Xue Yunli, liked Su Lin's type, but she didn't like men who looked like innocent, delicate flowers.

The person with Su Lin last night was not Xue Yuntong, but her younger sister Xue Yunyue. The two looked nine-tenths alike, and in the dim light, Su Lin mistook the person next to her for Xue Yuntong, the eldest daughter of the Xue family.

He never imagined that his path to success would be slept into overnight.

"Su Lin...you've mistaken me for someone else. The person you were with last night wasn't me..."

The cold, clear female voice uttered by Xue Yuntong instantly plunged Su Lin, who had been dreaming of instant success, into despair.

The maid, Liusu, looked at Su Lin, whose face was covered in tears, with disdain in her eyes.

"Her young lady is exceptionally beautiful and virtuous, yet this lowly Su boy is indulging in delusional fantasies!"

Liusu turned her head and exchanged a glance with her maid Fuling beside her. A thought suddenly popped into their minds...

"If Su Lin wasn't lying, the woman with Su Lin last night must have been the womanizer Xue Yunyue."

The servants, maids, and old women of the Xue family gathered in the open space of the pear orchard in the front yard and whispered among themselves. The shocking news that the young master of the Su family had climbed into the eldest young lady's bed last night had spread throughout the entire mansion in an instant.

"Granny Du, do you think this Su boy has a death wish? How dare he lay a hand on our pure and innocent young lady?"

With a mysterious expression, Granny Huang lowered her voice and spoke to Granny Du, who was expressionless. Her face was full of wrinkles that stretched out.

Wearing a brown silk dress, Granny Du glanced sideways at the gossipy Granny Huang, whose lips twitched but she remained silent.

Granny Du thought it was impossible. The young lady was a martial arts expert, and there was absolutely no chance that the little chicken from the Su family could get close to her.

Suddenly, Granny Du frowned. She suddenly remembered that the Second Miss did not know martial arts. If the Su family boy had attacked Miss Yunyue last night, it was not impossible that such a thing could happen.

Blue skies dotted with white clouds, a flock of wild geese flew away in a straight line, honking as they went.

In the flower-filled back garden, Xue Yunyue, a beautiful girl, was asleep on a swing. Her fluffy hair was a little messy, and her cherry-red lips were slightly open.

Her eyebrows were high and arched, and her dark, curled eyelashes left a long, curved shadow at the eyeliner. Her small, delicate nose was exquisite and lovely, and her petal-like lips were glossy, bright, and charming.

Her snow-white swan neck was gracefully hidden in the collar of her gorgeous dress, and Xue Yunyue's slender wrists were half-concealed in the light blue silk sleeves. In her dream, she was still repeating the entanglement with Su Lin last night.

A warm summer breeze carried her glossy black hair across her beautiful face.

Phrases like "as beautiful as peach blossoms and plums," "so beautiful that fish sink and geese fall from the sky," and "so beautiful that the moon hides and flowers blush" are insufficient to describe even a tenth of Xue Yunyue's beauty.

The biggest difference between Xue Meiren, who is like a fairy descended to earth, and her sister Xue Yuntong is their different temperament. She exudes the beauty of summer roses and the refreshing sweetness of mountain springs.

The eldest sister, Xue Yuntong, has an appearance that is as grand and beautiful as a peony, with an air of noble inviolability.

In matriarchal dynasties, women in ordinary households typically had one master husband and three or four attendants, while noblewomen had many more, including one master husband, three concubines, and more than ten attendants.

The Xue family is a top-tier noble family, and the daughters' status is comparable to that of royal princesses.

Xue's father was also from a top-tier aristocratic family, and the descendants of these two powerful families were exceptionally intelligent.
