Saving the foolish general, she accidentally becomes his favorite.

Chapter 3 A Young Man, Handing Over Financial Power

You are my only wife in this life.

This sentence kept echoing in my mind.

Help! This is so alluring!

As a lifelong single person, I can't take this kind of stimulation!

Just as Ye Li was thinking about how to respond.

In the quiet of the night, a "gurgling" sound suddenly rang out.

Ye Li's stomach... growled...

"Gulu."

Another sound.

Finish off the enemy.

Because of his injury, he hadn't eaten much, and now, amidst the pink, bubbly atmosphere, his stomach suddenly began to protest.

Unexpectedly, it was the awkwardness itself that broke the silence!

I've lost all sense of shame...

……

"I'm hungry."

Ye Li wrote, "Is there anything to eat?"

"You wait."

Mo Chen called softly towards the window:

"Ru Feng, take some food and go get the box from the dark room."

Good guy!

Ye Li heard no echo outside and saw no one, but miraculously, Ru Feng came in with food shortly afterward.

That's incredible lightness skill!

If a subordinate is this capable, then the general's martial arts skills must be even more remarkable!

It seems that the most important thing right now is to cling tightly to my future husband's coattails—ensuring we're well-fed, clothed, and that the whole family is worry-free.

Ye Li gained a deeper understanding of her own goals in life.

While she was eating, she thought about Mo Chen's injury, so she also served him food.

The young general felt a warmth in his heart when he saw that she did not look down on him.

The situation is really not good right now; I've even been poisoned...

He looked at Ye Li, who was enjoying her meal, and said:

"The Emperor has bestowed this marriage upon you; from now on, you will be the wife of the General's Mansion."

"Now that I've been poisoned, I might fall into a coma. From now on, I'll entrust all the affairs of the General's Mansion to you."

He looked at her, his gaze calm.

Ye Li was stunned. I just arrived, and you already believe me?!

I'm put in charge of such a huge general's mansion?

Ye Li thought to herself: Although it is said that everyone has their own talents, this is not how you use them!

Mo Chen took the box brought by Ru Feng, opened it, and found it filled with thick stacks of silver notes and gold ingots.

He handed all the money to Ye Li and solemnly said:

"Now that we are married, you can manage these things."

"And consider this the favor I asked you to do before, as payment for your hard work..."

Ye Li accepted the thick wad of bills in a daze, a huge wave surging through her heart!

That's a great relationship!

I was born to be useful.

That's how I use it!

Ye Li gave Mo Chen a big smile.

Ye Li's smile instantly gave her an irresistible charm and a sense of warmth.

It wasn't really about physical beauty, but rather the genuine joy of receiving such a large sum of money that made the smile on his face incredibly radiant...

It can be said that his love for money, such a mundane thing, was expressed without reservation.

Ye Li smiled and nodded, agreeing.

If this much money isn't enough, then I'll sell milk tea in ancient times to support you!

Looking at it this way, this unexpected husband is even more handsome and dashing!

It looks really good!

Mo Chen and Ru Feng talked for a while longer, but Ye Li, who was standing to the side, was already lost in thought and didn't listen carefully. Only the smile on her lips seemed to be frozen in time and lingered for a long time.

Mo Chen noticed her dazed expression and couldn't help but smile.

Ru Feng looked puzzled…

This isn't about military defense arrangements, so why is the general laughing instead of worrying?

Yes, he truly is a general with exceptional strategic skills!

He must have already made up his mind. Ru Feng gazed at his general with admiration.

The general, who was silently admired by his subordinates, simply felt that this woman was so real, much more real than all the masked people in the palace and the court.

People generally say that money is like dirt.

Among the four social classes—scholars, farmers, artisans, and merchants—merchants are ranked last because they are the most materialistic and therefore the most particular about their conduct, refusing to compromise their principles for a mere five pecks of rice.

But who can truly live without money?

Looking at the person in front of him, with her eyes sparkling as she gazed at the silver notes and a smile she couldn't suppress, coupled with her fair and pure face, Mo Chen felt that the woman in front of him was very real at this moment, without any pretense of coquettishness, only the joy of receiving silver.

She really liked money—Mo Chen came to a conclusion.

Time flew by, and after the three finished discussing their matters, Ru Feng, who could not reveal his whereabouts, was about to leave soon after the handover.

The following day, it was drizzling.

Suddenly, several claps of thunder echoed through the sky, waking Ye Li.

She looked up, wanting to see Mo Chen.

But they noticed that Mo Chen's face was very red, as if he had a fever!

Oh no! With such a serious injury, a fever was inevitable. In ancient times, there were no antipyretics available, so it all depended on the doctor and the patient's own immune system.

Ignoring her own pain, Ye Li tried to find a doctor, but found the door locked and couldn't open it. She also tried opening the window, but still couldn't open it.

A completely enclosed room.

Yesterday was an assassination attempt; today is a confined space.

She went to the table, poured a glass of water, and gently helped Mo Chen up. Mo Chen was in a daze, as if he were walking in the desert, and obediently drank the water.

Ye Li quickly put him down after finishing her work. There was no other way; this body had barely managed to lift an adult man with all its might, and feeding him water was already the limit.

Ye Li remembers that in ancient times, when people had a fever, they would apply a towel to their forehead to lower their temperature physically.

She stayed by his side, caring for him while waiting for his subordinate, Ru Feng.

Suddenly, she heard a "click" from outside the door. Ye Li rushed over and pried open the door.

The door actually opened!

The door that was locked last night can finally be opened!

Ye Li looked outside and suddenly met Ru Feng's eyes.

Ru Feng was clearly taken aback for a moment, probably thinking that Ye Li had misunderstood, and he quietly explained:

"I had to leave last night and was afraid that someone might come in and harm the injured general, so I locked the gate. You can't get out, but outsiders can't get in either. Please rest assured."

That's it!

Wow! You even thought of that.

Why don't you lock up your general every day?

After Ru Feng finished speaking, he patted Ye Li's head reassuringly, but then suddenly remembered that Ye Li's identity was inappropriate. His expression hardened, and he immediately apologized:

"I'm sorry, young lady. I just thought you and my sister looked alike. I didn't mean to offend you."

Ye Li quickly grabbed Ru Feng's arm and pulled him in front of Mo Chen.

Mo Chen's illness worsened. Ru Feng knelt down and carefully examined his injuries. With a grave expression, she said to Ye Li, "The poison in the general's body has started to take effect. I must go and fetch a doctor immediately."

Ru Feng calmly said to Ye Li:

“Please hear me out, young lady! My general may not be skilled in love, but he is loyal, upright, and a pillar of the nation. Now I must leave to find a doctor. I only hope that you can remember the general’s past kindness in saving him and take good care of him.”

After saying that, Ru Feng ran away like the wind, just like his name suggests.

Ye Li was left alone to process what had just been said.

They hoped that a mute person with neither martial arts skills nor medical expertise would take care of a feverish patient.

It seems like people are desperate and will try anything. Luckily, I'm a time traveler.

Ye Li has grown accustomed to the various miraculous encounters she has experienced since her transmigration, and is becoming increasingly calm.

She felt that taking care of a patient wasn't too difficult.

The premise is that the patient can still draw while lying still.

Suddenly, a series of knocking and banging sounds came from outside, accompanied by a chaotic and disorderly sound of footsteps and the shrill voice of a eunuch. A group of people entered directly, lined up neatly, and carried gold, silver, jewels, coral, and jade in their hands.

The head eunuch read aloud in a high-pitched voice:

"By His Majesty's decree, I have come to bestow a marriage upon the General. His Majesty is benevolent and has granted him a new residence. The wedding ceremony will be held today, and the marriage will be completed on this day. Congratulations!"

Ye Li waved her hand and pointed directly to Mo Chen's position, indicating that he couldn't get up.

Unexpectedly, the eunuch offered his congratulations with a fake smile:

"His Majesty, knowing that the General is seriously ill, has granted permission for him to perform the wedding ceremony while lying down, and the Golden Phoenix will conduct the ceremony on his behalf."

Ye Li thought to herself, "A golden phoenix? That sounds like it's very valuable."

The next second, a large rooster wearing a gold chain was brought out by the servants...

Ye Li: Forget it, let's just destroy it...
