Quick, female general, I traveled through time to save my father

Hearing Yanyan say this, Xia Liuer's originally fair face turned red.

He hurriedly tried to distance himself from the matter, saying, "I didn't, I wasn't!

I was adopted by Madam Lin."

But everyone was not patient enough to listen to her explanation, and they were all discussing and talking about their own things.

Yanyan wouldn't let her continue to argue: "You're not? What do you mean you're not?

Aren't you the one who stooped to lowliness and eloped with someone?

Aren't you the one who shamelessly gave things to others privately?"

Xia Liuer was eager to explain that her identity had nothing to do with Ye Junyuan.

He was also thrown into disarray by Yanyan's aggressive questioning.

The words that came out of his mouth were: "My cousin and I are in love with each other. If my wife hadn't insisted that you marry him, we wouldn't have to elope and become a pair of star-crossed mandarin ducks."

Of course Yanyan would not allow her to frame Sirong.

“I heard that Miss Xia lost her father at a young age, and when she and Madam Lin came to seek refuge at the General’s Mansion, she was dressed in rags, thin and pitiful.

My mother-in-law took pity on you because you were lonely and helpless since childhood, so she took you in.

Not only that, they will also treat you as their own child, allowing you to read and write, and learn music, chess, calligraphy and painting.

Look at the clothes and jewelry you are wearing. Which one is not the most popular style in Beijing nowadays?

She raised you with such precious wealth, how do you repay her?

Not only did you abduct her son and elope with her, but you also threw dirty water on her.

Since ancient times, arrangements have been made based on parents' orders and matchmaker's words. What did she do wrong?

Are people like you who peek at each other through holes and climb over walls the role models of the world?

Even though you did such a shameful thing, did your mother-in-law ever make things difficult for you? Did she punish you by making you kneel in the ancestral hall or drive you out of the house?

If it were a family with strict rules, you wouldn't even be allowed to enter the door, and you'd be allowed to talk nonsense here."

An old woman watching nearby couldn't help but interject, "If this happened in my hometown, they'd be thrown into a pig cage."

Suddenly, the discussions around became louder.

[That's right. Not to mention the wealthy, even ordinary families wouldn't tolerate such unorthodox behavior.]

[Oh my, this Madam Ye has truly raised a bunch of ungrateful people.]

Because of the theft in the general's mansion last night, Sirong simply asked the servants who were moving things to open all the boxes and carry them away in full view of the public.

This is to prevent people in the general's mansion from accusing her of stealing property in the future.

Most of the things that were moved away were furniture that Sirong brought as a dowry. She tried to leave as much as possible visible outside, and she had already put the valuables into the space.

Things like luggage and bedding are all rolled up into bundles so that people can see them clearly.

The rest are pots, pans, buckets for children and the like.

Plus the red lacquer coffin.

Yanyan's things were similar to Sirong's. The group left the general's mansion in a mighty procession, accompanied by everyone's discussions, and went to stay temporarily in an idle house under Sirong's name.

This incident caused a huge uproar in the capital, and even the emperor heard about it. He called General Ye to the imperial study and gave him a good scolding.

In the following six months, General Ye and the old lady came to Sirong's residence many times to seek peace.

He used both soft and hard tactics and tried every possible means.

As for Sirong's divorce, I just drag it out and refuse to divorce her no matter what.

General Ye even resorted to the tactic of carrying a bundle of firewood on his back to apologize, which gave the people of the capital a lot of topics to talk about.

The two married daughters of the Ye family also came to see Sirong and cried about how difficult their lives were in their husband's family because of what Sirong had done.

They were all driven out by Yanyan, not to mention that before you got married, you would come back from time to time to beg for money.

Don’t you know your own life experience? If you want to complain, go back to the general’s mansion and complain to your own mother. Why are you looking for trouble with them?

These two married women, relying on being the daughters of a general, often acted arrogantly in their husband's family.

The two in-laws were not as powerful as the general's family in the court, so they could only swallow their anger.

Now that they know their miserable backgrounds and that they are not even considered as having children born to concubines, they naturally will not be polite to them.

Cold words were considered the least of their worries; one family even considered divorcing his wife.

It was not until General Ye personally went to the door and harassed them that they gave up.

In the end, it was Sirong's family who found the empress dowager in the palace and told her about Sirong's experience.

The Queen Mother had been fighting in the palace for many years, and only had a few years of comfortable life until her son took the throne. She hated the practice of favoring concubines and neglecting wives the most.

An imperial decree was immediately issued to order the two to divorce, and the matter was finally settled.

Since then, the General's Mansion has lost all its reputation and has to deal with Sirong's debts, which is really a difficult situation.

The turning point of the situation was the news of a small-scale war at the border.

Over the past six months, General Ye's life in the court has been like walking on thin ice. Those ministers who usually flattered him have now come forward to impeach him, and His Majesty the Emperor has also severely reprimanded him from time to time.

Many years have passed since the end of the last war and the country has been in a period of peace without any war.

This time, General Ye took the initiative to request to go to the border to fight, naturally hoping to make a contribution and change the current situation.

He wanted to restore his reputation through his own efforts and achievements, and prove that he was still the brave, fearless and loyal general.

For the emperor, he felt very unhappy every day looking at General Ye.

Sijia had made a lot of efforts when he ascended the throne, and he was particularly aware of the current situation. Since he ascended the throne, he has put away all his edge, handed over what he should hand over, and just focused on being a royal merchant to make money.

There is also Sirong’s current daughter-in-law Yanyan, who is the granddaughter of her teacher.

To him, he is also a junior, so he naturally has to take care of him when his teacher is gone.

In addition, his own mother also showed her dislike for General Ye, so it would be strange for him to like General Ye.

So when he heard that General Ye had volunteered, he agreed without hesitation and sent him to the border immediately.

Don't get in his way.

All of a sudden, all the evildoers in the general's mansion became angry again.

I attend various flower viewing parties and spring banquets all the time.

Lin Ruxue took Xia Liuer and shuttled between banquets hosted by the ladies of various families, acting like a lady of honor, trying to establish a diplomacy with the ladies.

Unfortunately, not many people give them face.

Their behavior is what all wives hate the most. Not embarrassing them in public is considered a sign of good manners.

Ever since Sirong wanted to divorce, Qingshan Academy expelled Ye Junyuan.

Not to mention wanting to study at the academy on the mountain, he is not even qualified to go to the school at the foot of the mountain.

Some of his former classmates were radical and even published articles to distance themselves from him and criticize him.
