Mother Cai ran to Mrs. Zhang happily.
"Madam, great joy! This expert's predictions are so accurate. This young lady is really irritable to the young general. Tonight, the young general ate seven mouthfuls of porridge, and I saw his face change."
"Madam, you are so wise."
This Mrs. Cai is also a very experienced person. She says one thing to one person and another thing to another person.
Whenever there is a chance, he will cling to his wife.
Mrs. Zhang's anxiety was temporarily relieved after hearing this. General Zhang had never believed in the idea of a wedding to bring good luck, but she had insisted on giving her son a wedding, saying it was his last hope.
"Alright, go back and continue watching to see if there's any improvement tomorrow morning. If the young general gets better, you'll all be rewarded handsomely."
Early the next morning, it was just dawn.
Mother Cai was standing at the door of the bridal chamber, saying she would come in and help the young general and the young lady get up.
She wanted to know firsthand how the little general's wedding was going.
Xu Miao naturally couldn't stop her, so she could watch if she wanted.
Mother Cai prayed for Buddha's blessing in her heart while looking at the little general lying on the bed.
I didn't see any change.
Xu Miao smiled: "Mother Cai, the young general has been ill for three years, how could he recover so quickly? I'm here to bring good luck, I'm not a god."
Mother Cai said sheepishly, "I just think the young lady has a good fortune. Maybe she'll get better soon."
"Well, blame me, an old woman, for being anxious. Please don't blame me, young lady."
"Mother Cai, please stop talking like that. Please wait here and help the young general wash up. I will go prepare food for him."
After a while, Xu Miao brought out the clear porridge and a small plate of green cucumbers.
The whole house was filled with the fresh fragrance of cucumbers.
Xu Miao said with a smile: "Change the taste for the little general and try feeding him some vegetables."
In this way, Xu Miao served General Zhang for two days.
By the evening of the next day, Mother Cai screamed, "Little General, you've finally woken up. May the Bodhisattva bless you, little general, and you've finally opened your eyes!"
In a short while, the small courtyard where Xu Miao and her friends lived became the most lively place in the general's mansion.
Old Madam Zhang, who had never appeared before, was also supported by General Zhang and came to the young general's bedside.
"My dear grandson, you finally woke up. Grandma thought she would never see you wake up again. You unfilial little boy, how could you leave Grandma alone with peace of mind?"
As the old lady wailed, General Zhang lay on the bed. Although he could not move, tears flowed from the corners of his eyes.
"Mom, please stop crying. Look, Chengyi has regretted it now. He will get better and better in the future."
Zhang Chengyi, the young general, finally regained consciousness the day after his wedding.
"Reward! All the servants in the young general's courtyard will receive an additional three months' salary. Madam Cai will receive an additional six months' salary."
Following the old lady's order, servants inside and outside the courtyard knelt down happily to congratulate the old lady and the general.
The old lady looked at Xu Miao who had been kneeling silently beside the wedding bed, walked over and took Xu Miao's hand.
"Good boy, thank you. Thank you for saving Cheng Yi. You didn't just save Cheng Yi, you saved my life and Cheng Yi's mother's life."
"This is my first time meeting you, and I was in such a hurry that I didn't have time to prepare anything. This is for you, just consider it my gift to you."
As she spoke, the old lady took off a jade bracelet with excellent water content from her wrist.
This bracelet is obviously worth a fortune.
Xu Miao quickly knelt down to express her gratitude: "Old Madam, you are too polite. This is what Xu Miao should do. I don't deserve such a precious reward from you."
This old lady is the kind of person who won't release the eagle until she sees the rabbit.
If the wedding fails, Xu Miao estimates that not even a bone will be left.
After a while of excitement, General Zhang finally helped the old lady out of the courtyard.
Mrs. Zhang walked last.
"Tomorrow is the day for you to return to your parents' home. Cheng Yi can't accompany you back in this state. I'll ask the housekeeper to prepare a return gift for you, and let the housekeeper accompany you back to your parents' home tomorrow to meet your family."
"You don't have to rush back. Just stay at your parents' house for a day. The housekeeper will be waiting for you at the Xu Mansion."
"I'll have some little gadgets brought to you in a bit. You can keep them for fun."
The general's wife was still angry with her elder sister, so she took advantage of Xu Miao's return to slap her in the face.
Xu Miao's heart leaped with joy. She didn't care whether she was angry or not.
I thought she would not be allowed to return home, so this return gift was really an unexpected surprise.
It was worth it that she had spent several drops of blood to make porridge for the little general. She wanted to add a few more drops of porridge each time, but looking at the little general's shriveled body, Xu Miao thought better of it.
The next day, Xu Miao got up early and took care of the little general. Just as he was dressed, the housekeeper's heir came to the backyard to ask Xu Miao to go out.
Arriving at the gate of the general's mansion, Xu Miao sighed secretly as he looked at the four carriages parked neatly outside.
No wonder my elder sister has been waiting for three years, and even now she is an old maid, she still can't bear to get married. The Zhang family is rich, powerful, and has connections.
It is really a perfect match.
Inside the Xu residence, Xu Mingzhu sat in Madam Xu's room, her handkerchief twisted into a knot by her elder sister.
"What did you say? The young general is awake, and that little bitch actually succeeded in getting married?"
The eldest sister screamed in a sharp voice.
An old woman with gray hair was kneeling on the ground. Her daughter-in-law worked in the inner courtyard of the general's mansion.
Over the years, whenever there was any disturbance in the General's Mansion, the eldest sister and the wife would be the first to know the news.
"My wife said that the young general has been getting better since the first day of his marriage."
"Last night, the young general began to regain consciousness. Madam Zhang was in high spirits last night and rewarded the young general's servants with three months' wages. Madam Cai, who has been serving the young general, was even rewarded with six months' wages."
"It's said in the general's mansion that the young lady is destined to be happy, and her horoscope is compatible with the young general."
After hearing what the old woman said, the eldest sister suddenly stood up from her chair.
"Bah, it's my destiny to be happy. How can a lowly girl like Xu Miao be happy at all?"
"Even if the young general wakes up, it's still a question whether he can survive. I want to see what this bastard Xu Miao is capable of."
The eldest sister was making a fuss when the doorman came to tell her that the second young lady had returned home.
Xu Miao came before Madam Xu and greeted her politely.
He also bowed slightly to his elder sister.
"Mother, my daughter is returning home today after getting married. The young general cannot come with her. Outside the door is a gift from Madam Zhang, thanking you for your careful upbringing over the years."
Mrs. Xu looked at Xu Miao, who was dressed in new clothes and had changed her hairstyle into a woman's bun.
Although there are only a few ruby jewels on the bun, each one is of excellent quality and worth a lot of money.
It was obvious that she came from a general's mansion. She had never given this concubine's daughter any valuable jewelry, and even her dowry was what her daughter had left over.
Looking at Mother Cai standing behind Xu Miao, Mrs. Xu said a few polite words.
This Mrs. Cai is an elder in the general's mansion, and Mrs. Xu really doesn't dare to offend her.
The lady did not dare to offend, and the elder sister naturally did not dare to say much.
"Forget it, go to the backyard and see your mother. She is also looking forward to your return."
