After that incident, Lan Hanlu still wrote a letter to Lou Xiao.

If life is just like first sight, why is Qiu Feng sadly painting a fan.

Waiting for leisure to change but the old people's mind, but the old people's mind is easy to change.

There was nothing else to the two lines of poetry. She wanted to see what Lou Xiao was thinking, but she was not disappointed. It was the same explanation as in the previous life.

He talked about Qiao Chuxue's hardship and her affection for him. Then he presented her with a large amount of precious leather and jewelry, saying it was for her.

Lan Hanlu looked at the things in the letter, finding it amusing. And then nothing happened. She didn't reply. Even when Lou Xiao wrote repeatedly, she didn't reply to a single one.

But every time Butler Lou saw her, he seemed to be hesitant to speak, and Lan Hanlu simply ignored him.

Just after the New Year, another piece of good news came. Lou Xiao won a great victory and recaptured the last city, and drove the enemy out of the gorge. The enemy suffered too many casualties and would not be able to fight again for at least five years.

Qi Linmu issued an edict to commend the three armies and ordered Lou Xiao to return to the capital, but the border was far away and it was not like the army could return to the capital at full speed, so it would always take some time.

When they came back, it was already late spring and early summer.

However, the spoils were sent back first. Lan Hanlu didn't even open it to take a look. She directly asked the housekeeper and the nanny to register and put them into the warehouse.

She had already sorted out the account books in the mansion and moved most of her things to the farm. Now she actually felt a little interested in what was going to happen next.

The army will reach the capital in less than three days.

Knowing what was going to happen, Lan Hanlu called several maids and nannies over and said, "I called you here today because I have something to discuss."

Everyone was silent, just listening respectfully. Their indentures were all in the hands of the Madam, who spoke and they listened.

Lan Hanlu curled her lips and smiled. "Lou Xiao found a childhood sweetheart over there as a confidante. He might give her a formal status when he comes back."

For them, the news was both shocking and nothing to be shocked about.

Lan Hanlu continued, "You should know that I, your wife, am a person who cannot tolerate any sand in my eyes. Lou Xiao's promise back then is still fresh in my mind, but now it has become a thing of the past.

So I decided that after he comes back, I will move to the manor to live. If you want to follow me, you can go with me. If you don't want to follow me, I will return the indenture to the government."

This was a bombshell to them. Not to mention generals, even peddlers with ample money would think of taking a concubine and finding a lover.

They didn't understand what Lan Hanlu was thinking. Why would she care about a man's affairs when she couldn't be a good general's wife? No matter how powerful those women were, they were still concubines and couldn't surpass her.

Lan Hanlu didn't want to explain anything to them, so she waited for them to make their choice. Lemon and Orange quickly knelt down, "The Emperor has granted us the right to be his wife in life and his ghosts in death."

"Okay, then go and help me clean up and count the things in the warehouse." Lan Hanlu nodded and gave the order.

Grape and Huang Mama also knelt down immediately. "We came here with Madam, so of course we have to follow Madam."

The person Lan Hanlu least suspected was Grape. She was the one who usually handled matters that were inconvenient for many people to know. She sent the two away and packed her things.

Lizhi hesitated, but Lan Hanlu raised her hand to stop her from saying anything. "I'm leaving now. Return your indenture to the mansion, and you'll be a servant there. Your wish has only created obstacles, and it will be easier for you to take further action."

The two of them seemed to be playing charades, but they knew what was going on. As for Aunt Du, Lan Hanlu knew that she and the housekeeper were the same, so she didn't say anything and simply waved them away.

Lizhi bowed in a daze and left, while Madam Du stood aside, hesitant to speak. She was assigned to the Madam's side, and after following her for many years, she liked her very much.

This lady was excellent in both her conduct and upbringing. Even compared to the ladies from the big families in the capital, she was outstanding.

But seeing that his wife was so determined, he swallowed the words of persuasion that were on the tip of his tongue, sighed slowly, and bowed.

Lan Hanlu sat in a chair in deep thought. When she came to her senses, she saw Grape tidying up the decorations in his Treasure Pavilion.

She held her forehead with her hand and said, "There's no need to rush to pack up Grape's things. Besides, we only need to take what's mine. We won't take anything from the mansion."

Grape turned around and pouted, "Miss, why don't you want it? You earned all this bit by bit. When you first returned to the mansion, what did you have? There was only an empty general's mansion with only a few servants."

This is to stand up for her.

"Grape, even if I have to leave, I will stand on the highest moral ground and blame others, and I will never let others blame me. At the very least, I have to make myself feel better psychologically."

Grape didn't quite understand what was said, but she still listened to her young lady and nodded.

At this time, Lou Xiao and his personal guards were resting at the post station. When they were about to rest at night, they heard voices outside and asked loudly.

The soldier guarding the door said, "Miss Qiao is here to see you."

Lou Xiao suddenly realized something because of this sentence. Ever since Lulu wrote him a letter last time and he replied to her letter, he has not received any letter from her since then.

He wrote several letters and sent some things, but there was no response. The housekeeper replied that the lady had thrown all the things he brought back into the warehouse without even looking at them.

He knew that Lulu was angry, but when he escaped, Qiao Chuxue not only gave him money, but also medicine and food. Now he couldn't ignore her.

In this world, a woman cannot live alone. Maybe he thought about it for too long, and the sound over there became a little louder.

He told Qiao Chuxue to come in. The woman wasn't stunningly beautiful, but she had a gentleness about her. Although not stunning, she made people want to savor her more.

Behind her was a little maidservant who was bought by Lou Xiao to accompany her. Both she and the maidservant were holding trays in their hands.

There was steaming hot porridge and side dishes on the tray. "Ah Xiao, I saw that you didn't have anything for dinner, so I made some porridge. The weather is still a little cold, so drinking some hot porridge will warm you up."

She spoke in a gentle tone and slowly, which really made people feel like they were bathed in a spring breeze. However, Lou Xiao was too preoccupied with his thoughts to appreciate her.

He waved his hand at her and said, "Chuxue, you don't have to worry about this. I'm not hungry. If I were hungry, I would eat. Don't worry."

Qiao Chuxue put the tray on the table after hearing what he said. "Ah Xiao, my presence is making things difficult for you, isn't it?" As she spoke, her eyes turned red.
