Rebirth and Revenge: The Imperial Master’s Pampering of Me is Addicting Me

(Five years later)

The General's Mansion was bustling with activity early in the morning, and everyone from top to bottom was in a festive mood.

Mu Fushu got up even earlier, forgetting his morning shooting practice and rushing directly to the kitchen, reporting a bunch of names and telling the kitchen staff to get started quickly.

The kitchen manager's surname was Liu. She had practically watched the two children in the mansion grow up, and could be considered an elder in the Princess's mansion. She looked at him with a kind smile and spoke gently.

"Young Master, rest assured. The kitchen is the best at understanding the young lady's taste. Madam has already come to explain several times yesterday. Look, the kitchen has already prepared the pastries long ago, and they are just waiting for the young lady to return home and enjoy the hot pastries."

There was also a hint of melancholy and joy in Matron Liu's eyes.

To be honest, if the incident at the flower-viewing banquet at the Princess's Mansion had not happened, her daughter would not have been forced to leave the house to recuperate at the age of ten. Fortunately, the letters she sent back from time to time reported that she was safe, otherwise the lady would have been worried to death. Who knows how much suffering this good child had suffered outside.

Not to mention the Madam and the Young Master, she was also looking forward to this day. This year was a good day. When the war was over at the end of the year, even the Master would return to Beijing to report on his work, and then the family would finally be reunited.

Mu Fushu walked around the big kitchen and indeed smelled a familiar aroma. He left with satisfaction and went straight to the gate of the mansion.

Who knew that before he even walked over, he would see his mother and others waiting at the door. From time to time, he would tiptoe and look out, hoping to see his daughter whom he had not seen for many years.

He smiled and walked over to chat with his mother to pass the time.

While the two were chatting, three carriages were galloping towards the Jinghua city gate.

A cool autumn breeze blew open a corner of the curtain of the speeding carriage, revealing a face inside.

Her hair is as black as lacquer and her skin is as white as jade. Her every frown and smile reveals an indescribable charm, yet she is beautiful without being delicate, gorgeous without being vulgar. Five years is neither long nor short, but it is enough for a ten-year-old girl to grow into a pretty and beautiful girl.

Mu Qingli read the book quietly for a while, until he noticed the cool breeze outside, then he closed the book and put it aside, then he casually lifted the curtain and took a look outside.

"We've already reached the outskirts of Beijing. It seems we're not far from home."

Qilan was sitting next to her, happily swinging her feet and moving her head from side to side with an expectant look on her face.

"I don't know what's going on at home right now. Madam and Master must be waiting for us to come home."

Qiu Jin handed a cup of tea to Mu Qingli, raised the corners of her lips slightly, turned her head and glared at Qilan.

"When we get back, the madam and the others will surely be very surprised. The girl is now a great beauty. If she hadn't been engaged as a child, there might be a lot of suitors lining up to marry her in the future!"

Qilan stuck out her tongue at her, quickly sat down obediently, but also looked at her own girl curiously.

Mu Qingli glanced at the two of them without saying anything, slowly took a sip of tea, then turned his head and told someone to stop the car.

As soon as the carriage stopped, the two cars following behind also hurried over and stopped on both sides of the carriage. Then several heads popped out of the windows one after another, smiling and greeting.

Mu Qingli looked indifferent, stared at him nonchalantly and spoke in a gentle tone.

"You've been following me all the way, why don't you leave? Don't worry, if anything happens, I'll let Qiu Jin notify you."

These people are all from her Shura Palace. Although they are the younger ones this year, they are very clingy and insist on going back to Jinghua with her.

Since she had spoken, the two carriages naturally did not dare to follow. They agreed with a smile but still pushed one person out.

"Master, let Xiaoxue follow you. She can pass on messages if she's okay."

"That's right, if the master misses us, just let Xiaoxue pass a message to us, and you don't have to worry about the business in the building."

"Master, please don't miss us too much."

One of the carriages left quickly, and their playful words were all dissipated in the wind. Only the little girl who tilted her head idly beside the carriage was left, and she obediently called out "Master".

Mu Qingli glanced at her, put down the teacup helplessly, and smiled.

"Okay, get in the car. When we get back, just follow Qilan."

Qi Xue immediately grinned and quickly got into the carriage and sat down. The two carriages headed towards the General's Mansion again and soon stopped at the door.

Cheng Qin saw the carriage from a distance, and his eyes lit up almost instantly, and he subconsciously tugged at his son's sleeve.

"Do you think your sister is back?"

Mu Fushu also leaned over to take a look, and clearly saw that the swaying decorations beside the carriage were clearly the logo of their mansion, so he smiled and nodded.

"Yes, don't you see our mansion's logo hanging there? It must be Ali's back."

As soon as he finished speaking, the two carriages stopped. Qilan was the first to get off and saluted to the two men with a smile.

"Qilan pays her respects to Madam and Master. Qilan misses you very much."

Qiu Jin also came down. She smiled and reached out her hand to help her daughter down with Qi Xue. Then she turned around and saluted the two of them before quietly stepping aside, leaving space for the girl.

Someone nearby curiously peeked over and caught a glimpse of the girl getting off the carriage.

Mu Qingli was only wearing a cloud brocade dress with flowing colors and dark patterns, and a layer of shark gauze on the outside. The dress had a hidden shimmering pattern on it, and a plain satin ribbon was tied around her waist, which brought out her graceful figure.

She had a bun on her head with flying stars chasing the moon without too many decorations, except for a civet cat jade hairpin and a slanting flower hairpin. Her steps were light and graceful, which made her look charming and beautiful.

I didn’t expect the child to be so big already. Even Cheng Qin was dazed for a moment, but after coming back to his senses, he immediately went to greet him happily.

"Ahri!"

Mu Qingli was just as happy even though they hadn't seen each other for a few years. He raised his hand and saluted the two of them, then joked with her with a smile.

"Ah Li has met mother and brother. Mother is still as beautiful as ever after not seeing her for so many years. I'm afraid father will be stunned when he comes back."

Cheng Qin raised the corners of his lips at her teasing, and pinched her nose lovingly, his eyes full of pampering and a little bit of heartache.

"Why are you still like this? You must have suffered a lot in the past five years. Look how thin you are. Mommy made a lot of your favorite food for you. You have to make up for it when you get home."

"Ah Li, your Liyuan has added a lot of things in the past few years. When you go back and take a look, if you don't like anything, tell me and I'll replace it for you."

Mu Fushu also went over and looked at his sister carefully before he breathed a sigh of relief.

In the past few years, they could only communicate through letters. He always felt uneasy when he didn't see the person in person. Fortunately, apart from being much thinner, Ali didn't seem to be injured.

"Okay, I'll do as you say. I've brought gifts for my mother and brother. Qiu Jin, tell them to unload everything from the car."

Mu Qingli glanced at one place calmly out of the corner of his eye, then raised the corner of his lips slightly and agreed to everything. The family entered the mansion happily.

I didn't expect him to come too~ He's quite well-informed, but it's a pity that I wanted to give him a surprise.
