I just want to rob you of your luck

Lin Jiuer returned to her room and opened the system task panel. She was delighted when she saw it. It turned out that hard work would be rewarded.

The system task progress has become 5%, which means that the operations after encountering the adulterous couple just now have been effective.

In modern times, Lin Jiuer is seen by outsiders as a good girl, quiet, sensible, and non-confrontational. In fact, she is still very cheerful in front of her familiar friends.

For example, when she was with her good friend Shi Jingchen, they often played and fought, and told some dirty jokes. Thinking about those days, she missed them so much.

In order to return to the real world, she must complete the task as quickly as possible, and complete more tasks.

Lin Jiuer rekindled her fighting spirit and began to think about her next plan.

After resting for a while, Xiaoyun came in and said, "Miss, Aunt Li from the old lady's side is here to invite you to dinner."

When Lin Jiuer heard this, she packed up her things casually and went out.

Xiao Yun reminded her, "Miss, I noticed that Nanny Li didn't look too happy just now. You didn't prepare any medicinal food for the old lady today. She must be unhappy, right?"

Lin Jiuer suddenly remembered that her original identity was a very good daughter-in-law who served the old lady to the point of madness every day.

Now that she has returned to the general's mansion, he is not serving her any longer. I guess he will give her the cold shoulder at night.

But what should she do? She came here to avenge her original owner, so how could she continue to serve the enemies who killed her in her previous life?

As expected, when they arrived at the dining area, Old Madam Xiao Zijie and Qu Rouer were both there.

There were a few ordinary home-cooked dishes on the table.

Lin Jiuer pretended not to know and said, "Ah, Auntie, I'm really sorry. I came late and made you wait for me. It's my fault."

The old lady looked unhappy, and she forced a smile as she looked at Lin Jiuer: "Jiuer, today's dishes are a bit plain. I guess you are not used to those delicacies from land and sea?"

How could Lin Jiuer be fooled? "No, my mother prepared a large table of delicacies for me yesterday. I was so sick of it. I prefer to eat something light."

At this moment, Qu Rouer's voice came to my mind again: "It seems that the old lady is beginning to be dissatisfied with Lin Jiuer. I can take this opportunity to sow discord between them. It would be good to let the old lady stand on my side in the future."

Qu Rouer said, "I heard that Sister Lin used to prepare medicinal food or nourishing soup for the old lady every day. How come Sister Lin forgot to prepare it when she came back this time?"

Xiao Zijie also looked at Lin Jiuer, and always felt that she was different from the Jiuer he remembered.

The old lady was satisfied that Qu Rouer had spoken her mind, and she said generously, "It's not a big deal if I forget occasionally."

Lin Jiuer felt like vomiting when she saw these people.

If it wasn't for the mission, she really didn't want to be so hypocritical with these people.

She smiled and looked at Qu Rouer: "Aren't General Xiao and Miss Qu back? Of course I have to give you this opportunity to show my filial piety."

Qu Rouer was tricked again and could hardly conceal her hatred.

Xiao Zijie felt that what Lin Jiuer said made sense: "Mom, it is my son who is unfilial. I have not been able to be filial to you all the time. Jiuer has worked hard in the past few years. Rouer and I will be more filial to you in the future."

Qu Rouer's voice echoed in her mind again: "This idiot, what nonsense is he talking about? Why did he become an idiot when he saw Lin Jiuer? He just wanted to ruin my show! If you can't talk, just shut up!"

Lin Jiuer couldn't help but burst out laughing. Everyone at the table looked over. Lin Jiuer quickly said, "General Xiao is truly a very affectionate, kind, and filial person. Jiuer admires him."

Xiao Zijie felt a little embarrassed when he was suddenly praised, and his ears turned red when he looked at Lin Jiuer.

Qu Rouer was so angry that she almost fainted.

The old lady's face became even uglier. Why didn't this silly son understand what she meant?

I had no choice but to say, "Zijie is thoughtful, let's have dinner."

Lin Jiuer had a big meal outside at noon and was not hungry now, so she just ate a few bites casually.

The others also had no appetite for the food.

After dinner, Lin Jiuer said hello to the old lady and prepared to return to her own yard.

Xiao Zijie originally wanted to call Lin Jiuer to talk, but was stopped by Qu Rouer instead.

"Brother Jie, can I talk to you?"

Looking at Qu Rouer's aggrieved little face, his heart softened.

"Come on, let's go for a walk in the garden."

The two walked to the small garden in the backyard, one after the other, and Qu Rouer spoke.

"Brother Jie, you have changed since you came back. Rouer is very frightened."

She was really a little panicked. When she heard Lin Jiuer asking her to be a concubine today, she ran away in anger.

She thought Xiao Zijie would definitely catch up with her to comfort her and say that he would not break his promise.

As a result, she waited and waited, but Xiao Zijie didn't come to see her.

It was not until someone called her for dinner that she saw Xiao Zijie, but the two of them didn't have a chance to talk to each other.

After dinner, Xiao Zijie chased after Lin Jiuer again. She was angry and anxious. Who wants to be a concubine? Her goal is to be the general's wife. She even felt wronged to be a co-wife.

Xiao Zijie was a little confused: "Why did Rouer say that?"

"Brother Jie, you never ignored me before and always protected me from being bullied, but you have changed since you came back and saw Sister Lin."

Xiao Zijie stopped and looked at Qu Rouer. She was pretty, and her beautiful eyes were filled with resentment and grievance.

Did I really neglect her? Thinking about how Rou'er relied on me wholeheartedly, I did spend less time with her after I came back.

So I explained, "Rou'er, don't think too much. Maybe I've been busy since I came back, so I really don't accompany you as often as before.

Just stay in the mansion and wait for your wedding. You will be married in a dozen days. Don't let your imagination run wild, okay?"

When it comes to marriage, Qu Rouer's eyes immediately turn red: "Brother Jie, are you really going to take me as your concubine? But you clearly promised to marry me as your equal wife."

Xiao Zijie was stunned, and then he understood why Qu Rouer felt wronged and sad. He thought of Lin Jiuer's words and always felt that Qu Rouer was a little unreasonable.

"Rou'er, this is my fault. I agreed to it without consulting Jiu'er. But don't worry, even if you are my concubine, I will never treat you unfairly."

Qu Rouer was almost mad with anger. This man was such a liar. He changed his mind as soon as he came back!

And that Lin Jiuer is really hateful and not a good person.

Tears slid down her porcelain-white cheeks, and she looked at Xiao Zijie with resentment: "Now I'm being bullied before I even get married. Brother Jie not only didn't help me, but also helped Sister Lin to bully me. I feel so sad. Has Brother Jie forgotten the more than a thousand days and nights we spent at the border?"

Thinking of the days at the frontier, Xiao Zijie was a little moved. He indeed did not handle this matter well.

But he was also in a difficult situation. What if he insisted on marrying Rouer as his co-wife and Jiuer disagreed to let Rouer marry into the family?

Looking at Qu Rouer who was crying, Xiao Zijie finally agreed to discuss with Lin Jiuer about marrying her as his co-wife.

Early the next morning, after Lin Jiuer got up, she had breakfast in her own yard and then asked Xiaoyun to take the things up to the old lady's yard.

The old lady thought that she had brought her some good things again, and her face was full of joy, which made Lin Jiuer feel disgusted.

This old lady was originally a village woman, and she was very short-sighted. Later, she became the general's mother and was flattered by the servants around her. Gradually, she learned to put on airs.

She was very dissatisfied with Lin Jiuer's attitude yesterday, and thought that she would wait until she got married before dealing with her.

I didn't expect Lin Jiuer to take the initiative to admit her mistake. Let's see how she behaves.

"Jiu'er is here? Come and sit down."

Lin Jiuer didn't hesitate to sit down.

"Aunt, I've thought about it. After all, I haven't married yet, and now General Xiao has returned, so I'd better return the power of the family to you first."
