Rich Peasant Girl: The General's Wife Has Space

Li Mingyue and Zhao Mingyuan went out early and came back late, and together with Zhao Wenqing and the other two, they tracked down the gray-clothed servant for several days and interrogated him strictly. Combined with the information brought back by the spies lurking in Yilan State, they found out that the real identity of this Lord Lan in the black cloak was actually a second-rank cabinet member of Yilan State and also the cousin of Shu Guiren.

Several people believed that it would be strange if Concubine Shu didn't know about it. After following Duan Hongyi for a while, Li Mingyue and Zhao Mingyuan successfully led people to capture Lord Lan. As for Duan Hongyi who was with him, he suddenly disappeared.

Due to the lack of evidence at the moment, Li Mingyue was unable to search the Duan family's house and could only let Duan Hongyi go for the time being.

The most important thing at the moment is to detain Lord Lan and torture him to find out his contact merchants. However, Lord Lan, as a second-rank minister of the Yilan Cabinet, was thought to be a weak scholar, but unexpectedly he was very tough.

Seeing that Zhao Wenqing could not get anything out of him through torture, Zhao Mingyuan became a little impatient. He waved his hand and called Liu Xiangdong over to bring the Tianlang Army. Within a quarter of an hour, Lord Lan confessed swiftly.

Li Mingyue continued to investigate along this clue.

At the same time, the imperial edict to restore Zhao Wu and Zhao Mingyuan to their posts was also passed down. When the imperial edict arrived in Dahuaishu Village, the whole village was in an uproar again.

This remote Dahuaishu Village is full of hidden talents. Not long after, another decree from the Heavenly Family arrived.

First, the county lady was enthroned, and now the Zhao family officials were reinstated. The villagers suddenly felt proud and crowded to the door of the Zhao family.

Seeing the imperial decree being read out again by the eunuchs in the palace, Zhao Lizheng was so excited that his eyes were filled with tears and his face turned red.

It was worth it for him to be the head of the village in this life. First, Xiao Wan led the whole village to prosperity, and then the Zhao family officials were reinstated, which once again added an additional layer of security to the village. He had seen two imperial edicts in his life, so it was worth it.

If Zhao Lizheng knew that the emperor and the imperial concubine had also visited their village and stayed here for a while, I wonder if Zhao Lizheng would faint from excitement.

The villagers discussed the matter, secretly wondering if they had done anything to offend the Zhao family. However, Zhao Wu and Fu Shi did not celebrate too much, but simply exchanged a few words with the village head.

The young ladies in the village were all jealous when they saw the Zhao family. Then they looked at Zhao Mingyuan, who was now dressed in gorgeous clothes and looked very handsome. Their hearts were fluttering and they couldn't wait to glue their eyes to him.

Unfortunately, when the Zhao family first arrived in the village, the villagers all knew that the Zhao family had been exiled and had fallen on hard times. Although the Zhao family had a large house, they could be remembered and punished at any time.

Therefore, for fear of being implicated, many families who had ideas about Zhao Mingyuan gave up quietly, but it did not prevent the young girls from looking at Zhao Mingyuan's handsome face.

Seeing the Zhao family's prosperity, the families with daughters of marriageable age at that time all had tears in their eyes and regretted their decision. They brought their daughters forward, even if it was just to become a concubine of a general. The girls realized their mothers' intentions, blushed, and kept looking at Zhao Mingyuan.

But it was too late. When they approached, Fu just smiled politely and ignored them.

The women did not dare to offend her, and suddenly they saw Fu smile. They thought there was something going on, and hurriedly tried to continue flattering her.

Unexpectedly, Fu politely avoided them and went out to greet them. Everyone turned around and saw that it was the Xiao family who came.

Fu enthusiastically took Liu's hand, and then pulled Xiao Wan into the house. The women suddenly realized that the Xiao family was foresighted and had always had a good relationship with the Zhao family.

Now Fu had to take the Xiao family seriously, especially the way Fu was holding Xiao Wan intimately, which further confirmed the women's guesses.

The older girls pinched the corners of their clothes with envy. Zhao Mingyuan smiled gently at Xiao Wan, which made them envious.

But now Xiao Wan is a county lady personally appointed by the emperor. Looking at her, she is tall and graceful, wearing a light purple silk dress and a jade hairpin in her hair. She is really beautiful.

As they watched, they suddenly felt inferior and embarrassed to stay any longer, so they left with their families in disappointment.

Xiao Wan noticed their burning eyes looking at Zhao Mingyuan, and couldn't help but look at him jokingly. She saw that Zhao Mingyuan only looked gentle when facing her, and was rude to other women. Xiao Wan nodded with satisfaction.

The arrival of the imperial edict means that Zhao Mingyuan is about to leave. Xiao Wan is reluctant to let him go, but she has no choice but to see him off.

Fu returned to Beijing alone. The Zhao family's former house in Beijing had been returned to them, and Fu still needed to go back to Beijing to sort things out.

Zhao Wu and his son went directly to different borders, and the Tianlang Army officially returned to the Zhao family army.

Fu looked at everything in Dahuaishu Village with deep emotion. She took Liu's hand and whispered, "Sister-in-law, I'm going back to Beijing. Wan'er and Mingyuan's marriage..."

Before Fu could finish, Liu became nervous. The Zhao family's official positions had been restored, and the whole family was about to go to the battlefield or return to Beijing. What should they do with the two children?

Zhao Mingyuan is a person trusted by the emperor, and he will be the heir to the General's Mansion in the future. Will he pay less attention to Wan'er?

Fu took Liu's hand comfortingly and said, "Sister-in-law, don't worry. I certainly hope that the two children will get engaged first. When Mingyuan returns from the battlefield, I will hold a grand wedding for them in Beijing. What do you think? It's just that the engagement is a bit tight right now, as Mingyuan will be leaving soon."

Fu was also a little hesitant. After all, Mingyuan went to the battlefield and no one knew when he would be back. But it would not be good not to give the girl an explanation.

After hearing what Fu said, Liu felt relieved, but it was too late to get engaged. Xiao Wan and Zhao Mingyuan came over and told Fu and Liu their plans. Zhao Mingyuan would go to the battlefield first, and when he returned victorious, he would ask the emperor to grant the marriage, so that he would pay more attention to Xiao Wan.

Fu and Liu looked at each other and saw that the children had made up their minds. The current situation did not allow for anyone to do anything, so they had no choice but to agree.

Fu then took off the pair of jade bracelets on her hands, looked at them reluctantly, and then happily put them on Xiao Wan.

Xiao Wan refused to accept it, and Fu said angrily, "Silly child, wear it. This was passed down to me by my mother-in-law, Mingyuan's grandmother. It's also passed down from the daughters-in-law of our Zhao family. I can't hold an engagement ceremony for you now, which is already very unfair to you. When Mingyuan comes back, we will hold a grand ceremony and welcome you into the Zhao family."

Xiao Wan's eyes were a little red, and she nodded with emotion, letting Fu put it on her. When Liu saw this scene, she felt sad and relieved.

Zhao Mingyuan and Xiao Wan smiled at each other.
