Outside the gate of the General's Mansion

"You lowly slave! I've been waiting for almost half an hour, when will you report? I've already said that I'm the sister-in-law of your general and the elder sister of your young lady! How dare you treat me so harshly? I'll beat you to death later!"

As Shangguan Yue and Chen Bianbian just arrived at the gate, they heard a woman cursing like a bullfrog.

As soon as the servant opened the door, he saw a woman with red, yellow, blue and green ornaments hung from head to toe like a Christmas tree.

The woman was about thirty years old, slightly plump, with big ears, fair skin, round and protruding eyes. When she opened her mouth, one could see that her upper teeth were growing slightly outwards, while her lower teeth were growing slightly inwards.

She was standing with one hand on her waist and with the other hand pointing at a servant guarding the gate and spitting wildly. She not only greeted the servant's ancestors, but also greeted the ancestors of the people who were pointing at her.

"Who is barking in front of our general's mansion?" Chen Bianbian hated those who specialized in bullying slaves the most.

"How dare you say I'm a barking dog! Who are you?" Li Caiju glared at Chen Bianbian with her eyes wide open.

When I saw Chen Bianbian's face, which had not changed much since she was a child, and which was becoming more and more beautiful, with a delicate and graceful figure and skin as white and tender as cream, I felt very uncomfortable and unwell when I compared it with my own thick waist and swollen face.

"Hey! Kusanglan, why don't you recognize me? I'm your elder sister! You are so heartless. You haven't contacted me, your family, for so many years after getting married. If I hadn't heard from others that your brother-in-law became a general, I wouldn't have known it! You are so ungrateful!

I was so good to you when we were little! I took care of all the good things for you, and I gave you money when you wanted to spend it, but what about you? You never helped me at all. Now, let’s not talk about anything else. You can ask your brother-in-law to find a good job for my son, and that will be your way of repaying my kindness to you.”

Li Caiju's big mouth and thin lips moved up and down. Chen Bianbian didn't expect that this woman had a wealthy face, but when she opened her mouth, every word was piercing.

At first, she hadn't put herself into the role of Li Junlan and hadn't reacted yet, but when she heard "Crying Lan", the nickname that Li Caiju had given her since she was a child, her body couldn't help but tremble. Chen Bianbian knew how much Li Junlan instinctively hated and was disgusted with this nickname.

Being scolded and blamed for repaying the small favors she had done as a child is something that only happens once in two lifetimes. It is understandable that she had really received the small favors from her, but no matter how hard I racked my brains, I couldn't find any images of the original owner having ever received the so-called favors from Li Caiju. There were only scenes of being beaten, scolded and ridiculed by Li Caiju.

A lot of common people gradually gathered in front of the gate. There were also many guests in the mansion who said they were going home after the banquet, but they walked out of the gate and did not leave, obviously there to watch the fun.

Chen Bianbian was extremely angry, but she couldn't possibly go up and beat up this bitch in front of so many people. If it were in modern times, she would have rushed up and beat this lunatic, but in ancient times, people had to pay attention to their reputation, and this lunatic suddenly came to her after more than ten years, and her purpose was not pure, so she couldn't act rashly.

"Oh! So it's my eldest sister! When I was a kid, my eldest sister was always nice, always telling me that younger ones should respect the older ones, so I've been giving you everything I wanted to eat, look at, and use since I was a kid. Could there be anything I missed? That's impossible. I remember giving you everything.

Speaking of getting married, you were the same, elder sister. You didn't tell anyone when you got married, and no one in the family knew you were married. You didn't come back after you got married, and a few years later when I got married, you didn't come to add to my dowry. I asked my parents, but they said they didn't know where you were, so they just said that you, elder sister, should just die.

"Alas! Big sister, you are the same. Your parents have worked so hard to give birth to you and raise you. How can you be so cruel to break off the relationship and hurt your parents' hearts?"

Shangguan Yue secretly gave Chen Bianbian a thumbs up. Chen Bianbian looked at her, smiled slightly, raised his head and stroked the hair on his forehead with his hand.

"What did those two old guys do for me? They gave birth to me and raised me. How many taels of silver did they spend on me? I didn't do any work? I didn't embroider or make soles for shoes to sell? How much did I spend on those two old guys? Five taels of silver is enough to pay them back for raising me!

What's wrong with me getting married? If those two old guys don't agree, I won't get married? They just want me to live a bad life, right? "

"Big sister, it's not that parents don't want you to get married, but you have a legitimate wife, why do you want to be a concubine for an old man? And... and she's not a concubine, just a mistress, how can parents save their face?"

"Crying Sanglan! You are a waste! You are a stinky slut! You and the others persuaded me to marry that poor guy. You are just hoping that I will have a bad life, right? Today, let's see who dies first! Who will light incense on the grave first! Does it matter to you who I marry? Let you bite me like this! I will strangle you to death!"

Li Caiju was so angry that she was waving her claws and her fingernails were about to dig into Chen Bianbian's eyes.

Xia Zhi quickly stood up and used his body to separate Li Caiju.

Shangguan Yue stepped forward and pulled down Li Caiju's hand which was pointing at Chen Bianbian.

"Don't be angry, Auntie. I'm Yue'er. Today is a big day for our General's Mansion. I'm sorry for not entertaining you well. It's just that all the guests have invitations, but I don't know where you live, so I can't notify you.

My grandparents probably just received the letter. They can't catch up because of the long distance. My aunt must live nearby! She is really well-informed. Who told my aunt?"

Shangguan Yueliang looked at Li Caiju with her big, sparkling eyes.

"This...I just heard it from others on the street, so no one told me."

Li Caiju couldn't help but look at the group of guests in front of the door. Someone who was watching the fun with gloating attitude shuddered in his heart and quickly shrank behind the crowd.
