Famine and exile: I brought the Spirit Spring to save the entire Marquis's mansion.

Chapter 361 No time to meet again

A woman said, "General Yan just arranged for the army to be vacant, but as soon as he heard that Miss Beigong was coming, he pretended to be sick. The eldest daughter of the Beigong family is indeed beautiful, and her family background is worthy of General Yan."

Another woman scoffed, "What do you know? That Miss Beigong is no noblewoman at all. She's been married before and has a child."

However, she was divorced by someone else, supposedly because she was unfaithful...

"Ah? Is that so! No, that won't do. Our old general's wife hates women like that the most. Although she hopes the young general will get married soon, the prerequisite is that he must have a clean background."

Besides, the young general's fame is now widespread, and countless noble ladies admire him; there's no way a second-marriage woman could possibly be a match for him.

"Yes, we mustn't let her tarnish the young general's reputation."

Xin Xuefu silently walked past the tent.

Hearing the commotion, the two people inside the house ended their conversation.

"Sister Yu Yan, she won't tell the young general, will she?"

"No. I inquired about that woman before. She's so weak and spineless that she doesn't say a word when she's bullied."

Besides, how could she possibly have the face to talk about something so disgraceful?

"That's good."

Xin Xuefu took a few steps, then turned around and went back to find Sang Ning.

"Ning'er, who lives in that medium-sized tent in the third row in the southwest corner? I heard it was two women."

"The third row of the southwest?" Sang Ning thought for a moment.

With so many tents, she didn't know who lived where, but women...

"You must be talking about Yu Yan from Brother Meng's team. She used to work for Brother Meng, but later she made some mistake and was demoted to a lowly soldier. She has some skills and was promoted very quickly. This time, she was promoted to centurion to fill the vacancy."

Aside from Jingya's group, which had women, she was the only one left.

It turns out he was a meritorious general, quite admirable, but he's too talkative.

"What's wrong, Sister Fu?"

"It's nothing, they just said some things on purpose so I could hear them."

Xin Xuefu wouldn't tell anyone about her past, except for one person: Sang Ning.

Sang Ning was the only one who helped her open up those scars and remove the festering sores.

She had nothing to hide.

Sang Ning was angry. "Why did they say those things? A qualified subordinate would never interfere in their leader's romantic relationships."

There's only one possibility: jealousy.

Sang Ning guessed it right away.

"But the two of them had just performed meritorious service and had not committed any fundamental errors, so they should not be punished."

“I know, there’s no need to fuss over such a small matter. If she were anyone else, I would make sure she could never speak again, but someone who has killed enemies and made meritorious contributions, just ignore her farts.”

Xin Xuefu smiled, her expression calm and understated.

"Besides, there's not much chance of meeting again in the future, so there's really no need to waste your energy on unrelated people."

Sister Fu is so generous!

She wouldn't harm someone who has made contributions for her own selfish reasons.

In contrast, Yu Yan...

Sang Ning doesn't deny that she has the ability, but her character is worrying!

If a general is unable to control his selfish desires, he will surely suffer a great disaster.

Therefore, she only rose to the rank of centurion.

"Ning'er, how many leeches do you have left? Give them all to me." Xin Xuefu smiled coolly.

"You're going to give this to Brother Meng? No way, it's poisonous if you eat too much of it. Are you really willing to give it to him?" Sang Ning teased.

Upon hearing that it was poisonous, Xin Xuefu composed herself and finally gave a wry smile: "Never mind, I find it really funny."

What's there to fuss about?

"Sister Fu?"

"Ning'er, there's nothing between Yan Meng and me, and there won't be anything in the future. Staying in the military camp for too long is against the rules, so I'm leaving now."

Oh dear, Yan Meng, you've messed things up!

Sister Fu has been hurt before and is too sensitive. This lie has pushed her further away!

But are these two really a good match?

Yan Meng is destined for the pinnacle of glory, but Sister Fu seems more suited to a peaceful and warm ordinary life.

With that thought in mind, Sang Ning didn't dare to interfere recklessly.

Xin Xuefu went to talk to Bei Gongyao, and when he heard that she was leaving, Bei Gongyao didn't know whether to be happy or worried.

The younger sister didn't seem to care much about Yan Meng.

But why did he feel regretful?

"Brother, don't worry, Mother will cure Father. Actually, this is a good opportunity for them to get back together."

Shin-Snowflake has always felt guilty.

Because of her, her mother abandoned her father and brother for so many years.

In fact, she knew that her mother still had her father in her heart. Otherwise, why would so many people like her, the rich and powerful, including a famous chivalrous uncle who had always liked and protected her mother for more than ten years?

But my mother never accepted it.

Now that she's back, it's hoped that the family she once broke can also be restored to its former glory.

"I know, I'll come find you after I've dealt with things at Lutai."

“Okay.” Shin Xuefu smiled at him.

Bei Gongyao felt like crying instantly.

His obedient and well-behaved younger sister has always been in his memory and has never disappeared.

He never resented her, nor did he resent his mother.

When he was a child, he would practice his martial arts desperately when he missed his mother, hoping to grow up as soon as possible and be able to take charge of the family.

He always knew that his mother didn't come back because she wasn't liked by the elders, because she was such a proud person.

She didn't abandon him either.

Famous swords, clothing, rare medicines, and hidden weapons would appear in his room from time to time.

Mother simply refuses to see him.

He hugged Xin Xuefu, choking back tears: "It's our fault for not finding you all these years, causing you so much suffering."

"No matter your surname, you are the eldest daughter of the Beigong family. From now on, I will do everything in my power to protect you and Mother."

"Ah."

Xin Xuefu felt happy; she had many people protecting her, and was no longer the woman who was confined to the mansion and looked blankly at the sky.

She will protect them.

Xin Xuefu, clutching a dried leech, arrived at Yan Meng's tent.

"Brother Meng, eat it, and you'll be completely healed."

what!

Yan Meng's face was genuinely pale; he wasn't faking it!

"Fu'er, I really feel like I'm all better now, look!" Yan Meng showed off his strong arms and then picked up the large knife next to him and brandished it a few times.

Shin-Snow looked at the white cloth wrapped around his body and lowered her eyes.

"Don't move, go to bed and rest. It's okay if you don't want to eat."

She placed the leeches on the table.

The voice was soft and gentle, without any anger.

Yan Meng felt uncomfortable; she preferred how anxious she had been earlier.

"Okay, I'll eat it."

With a clenched tooth and a closed eye, Yan Meng swallowed the leech.

Okay, it's good that she ate it, as she vented her little anger.

"Are you relieved now? I'm going to bed now, will you talk to me for a bit?" Yan Meng's voice was unusually gentle, with a hint of doting.

I love listening to her talk; it's so captivating.

New Snowflake began to retreat.

"Brother Meng, I'll answer your question again."
