Quick Transmigration: The Love Rescue Plan

Chapter 4 Heroines of the Song Dynasty (2)

However, this is ancient times, after all, where supernatural phenomena are not valued. Furthermore, Dong Yue'e is not very old; people will at most think she's just a child with an immature mind. It's not a big problem.

But even Dong Yue'e's personal maid, Bi'er, probably won't be able to come to her senses for a while, so she has to find a way to smooth things over.

Dong Yue'e stuck out her tongue, put her hands on her hips, and said coquettishly, "Oh dear, Bi'er, what are you so surprised about? When I was little, I said I wanted to be a female general when I grew up!"

"I just fell in love with dancing when I was young and naive. Now that it's been a few years, I've realized that I'm actually a martial arts prodigy, and I can't let it go to waste." Dong Yue'e said matter-of-factly, "Besides, my Dong family's archery skills are counting on me to carry them forward!"

Before Bi'er could even react, Dong Yue'e simply picked up the copper basin from the ground, went to the courtyard, drew a basin of well water, and washed herself.

When Dong Yue'e returned to her room, Bi'er was still standing there in a daze. Dong Yue'e wasn't in a hurry; she sat down in a chair and slowly organized her thoughts.

The name Dong Yue'e may not be familiar to many people.

But if we mention another name, it's one that everyone is very familiar with.

Neither Dong Yue'e nor Dong San Niang are as renowned as the female generals of the Yang family.

That's right, Dong Yue'e was one of the female generals of the Yang family, a group of heroes in the Song Dynasty.

Dong Yue'e was the third daughter of Dong Zhenhong, the Iron Bow Commander of Xinzhou, a general who surrendered from the Northern Han Dynasty. She was skilled in archery and was known as "Divine Archer Dong San Niang". She was the wife of Yang Sanlang, Yang Yanguang.

Of course, this is the historical Dong Yue'e, not the Dong Yue'e that Dong Qianyue inhabited. The Dong Yue'e that Dong Qianyue inhabited is not that Dong Yue'e. Although it is the historical Dong Yue'e, they are quite different.

The Dong Yue'e from before was not the original Dong Yue'e, but a Dong Yue'e who had been transported through time.

Dong Yue'e, who traveled from the modern era, knew about the Yang family generals, knew that marrying into the Yang family meant becoming a widow, and that she would have to fight desperately on the battlefield for the Song Dynasty, ultimately dying on the battlefield.

Rather than being a tough woman or a widow, Dong Yue'e preferred to be a quiet, well-bred lady, marry a scholar, and live a simple, ordinary life.

Thus, the life of the tomboy Dong Yue'e was completely changed from the moment she was transported to another world, and of course, the love between Dong Yue'e and Yang Yanguang was also changed.

Therefore, in order to save the love between Dong Yue'e and Yang Yanguang, Dong Qianyue must reconnect the red thread between them.

When Dong Yue'e arrived at the hall for her meal wearing this old-fashioned outfit, she really gave her mother, father, brother, and younger brother a big fright.

But they were people who had seen a lot, and after a moment of stunned silence, they quickly recovered and began their meal in a calm manner.

Dong Yue'e told everyone about her decision, and no one said anything.

However, Dong Yue'e knew that although her grandfather Dong Zhenhong hadn't said anything, he was happy inside.

After all, Dong Zhenhong was a military man, so he naturally hoped that his son would inherit the style of a military family.

However, the Dong family only has one daughter, so naturally they love her to the core.

Therefore, when Dong Yue'e expressed her desire to learn dance instead of martial arts at the age of twelve, Dong Zhenhong, though not entirely happy about it, still allowed it.

Once Dong Yue'e had a basic grasp of the Dong family's archery techniques, she was allowed to learn to dance.

Ultimately, Dong Yue'e was a woman, and Dong Zhenhong's own identity was also quite awkward: as a surrendered general of the Northern Han, his treatment in the Song Dynasty was neither good nor bad.

For a soldier, not being given important responsibilities is frustrating.

Therefore, Dong Zhenhong did not expect his children to go to the battlefield to defend the country. His daughter would eventually get married. When she was young, Dong Yue'e had the temperament of a boy. He thought that she could learn to dance to cultivate her temperament and find a husband in the future. So he decided to keep her.

Now that Dong Yue'e has realized her mistake and returned to the right path, Dong Zhenhong sees it as a very good thing.

Although he didn't expect his daughter to go to the battlefield, the Dong family's martial arts skills couldn't be lost.

As a military family, the Dong family was unlike those scholarly families or aristocratic clans; they did not have the custom of passing down their skills only to sons.

Anyone of the Dong family bloodline must learn the Dong family's archery techniques.

This was something Dong Yue'e was extremely fortunate about. Otherwise, without the Dong family's archery skills as a foundation, how could she have transformed this beautiful young woman, who had been pampered by the transmigrated woman, into a tough woman capable of fighting on the battlefield?

You know, even a skilled cook can't cook without rice; if you have absolutely no basic skills, you'll really die, okay?

"By the way, Mother, I guess I won't need those clothes in my closet anymore. Can you call a seamstress to come to the manor today and make me a few new clothes?"

The clothes in Dong Yue'e's closet were mostly for dancing, and most of them were multi-layered gauze dresses that Dong Yue'e couldn't wear now.

What tomboy would wear a flowing, fairy-like gauze dress every day?

"Moon Lady, making a few clothes isn't a big deal. But... have you thought this through?" Mother Dong sighed softly.

Compared to her father, Dong's mother naturally preferred her delicate daughter. At least she wouldn't have to worry about her daughter's marriage in the future. But if her daughter was someone who wielded weapons…

“Mother, I’ve thought it through.” Dong Yue’e held her mother’s hand and patted it gently to comfort her. “Actually, I’m more talented at martial arts than dancing. I’m the daughter of Dong Zhenhong, the Iron Bow Commander of Xinzhou, a surrendered general. Didn’t my father always say that I was born to practice martial arts?”

“But didn’t you dislike it since you were little? Sigh~ Never mind.” Mother Dong sighed heavily again, then shook her head and smiled, “A son is no longer under his mother’s control when he grows up. It’s good that you’ve thought it through. Since you’ve decided to stop practicing dance, you can’t just ignore the teaching academy like that. You should at least go and tell your master in person.”

“Mother, Yue’e understands.” Dong Yue’e nodded, then looked at her mother with some difficulty before saying, “But Mother, I don’t have any suitable clothes to wear out.”

The outfit Dong Yue'e was wearing had been stored away in her trunk since she started learning dance two years ago. In those two years, Dong Yue'e had grown quite a bit taller, and the outfit no longer fit her. It was even a bit inappropriate to wear at home, let alone out in public.

Since the Tang Dynasty, social customs have become much more open.

Women could walk freely on the streets, but it was still ancient times. No matter how open it was, it couldn't compare to modern times.

Therefore, if your appearance isn't properly maintained, you can't just go out on the street.

Otherwise, even a single spit from each person could drown Dong Yue'e.

"Since you don't want to wear those clothes anymore, then make do with some of your mother's clothes from when she was young. There are priorities, so it's important to talk to your master and apologize as soon as possible. We can't drag this out, or it will make the Dong family seem impolite."

"Yue'e, listen to your mother."
