Rebirth: Find a General as Your Backer

Su Lianxue looked at her with admiration in her eyes and said with a smile, "I have long heard of Captain Yin's name. Today, I can see that Captain Yin is truly blessed. Captain Yin is a hero praised by everyone in the army."

When Madam Yin heard Su Lianxue praise her husband so highly, a proud smile appeared on her face. She bowed slightly and said, "Miss Su, you flatter me. My husband is just doing his duty."

Then Su Lianxue took off a bracelet from her wrist and gently handed it to Madam Yin, saying softly, "I heard that you two have just gotten married. This is a small token of my appreciation. I wish you a loving marriage, that you will stay together and walk hand in hand through the days to come."

Madam Yin quickly accepted the bracelet with both hands, her eyes filled with surprise and gratitude. She said respectfully, "Thank you, Miss. My husband and I will always remember your kindness."

Beside her, Miss Chen asked curiously with bright eyes, "Miss Su, I heard that you have done many good things for Mofang City. How did you come up with the idea to do these things?"

Su Lianxue smiled and said, "I just want to do my part to make life better for the people here. Everyone has their own difficulties, so I'll help in any way I can."

Everyone nodded in agreement with Su Lianxue's words. At this moment, Su Lianxue noticed Wang Wan'er, who was standing absentmindedly to the side.

She smiled and looked at the preoccupied Wang Wan'er, and said gently, "Wan'er, how have you been lately?"

Wang Wan'er was flustered by being suddenly called out. She forced a smile and said, "Miss Su, I... I'm fine. Thank you for your concern."

Su Lianxue could tell that she had something on her mind, but she didn't press her and just continued talking to the others.

"Although this desert city isn't as bustling as other cities, it has its own unique charm. What kind of leisure activities do you all usually engage in?" Su Lianxue asked.

Everyone began sharing their hobbies and interesting stories, and the atmosphere gradually became relaxed and pleasant. Su Lianxue listened attentively to everyone's stories, occasionally offering her own opinions and feelings, making everyone feel that she was very approachable.

After chatting for a while, Su Lianxue felt much closer to these young ladies and misses.

"I've prepared some activities for everyone, including horseback riding, archery, and a game of pitch-pot. Let's go and have some fun!"

Some of the lively ladies and young women immediately beamed with joy upon hearing this. They clapped their hands excitedly, their eyes sparkling with anticipation. Actually, they didn't like sitting all the time; being able to go out and move around would make them feel much more comfortable.

To add to the fun of the game, Su Lianxue had prepared some prizes. As a result, all the lively ladies were eager to try their luck.

Upon seeing this, Wang Wan'er immediately said, "Who can have a match with me?"

Miss Chen replied, "I'll do it, Sister Wan'er, let's go together." They were already acquainted, so they looked at each other and smiled, agreeing in unison.

Su Lianxue looked at the two spirited young girls on the field, her heart filled with envy. Their riding skills were truly superb; they could even perform some difficult maneuvers on horseback.

Su Lianxue was stunned, exclaiming repeatedly, and couldn't help but stand up, cheering them on. She clapped her hands gently, her eyes filled with surprise. Xiao Tao gently supported her mistress, afraid that something might happen to her.

At this moment, the general also brought them wine, both strong and sweet rice wine. Upon learning this, everyone stood up to thank the general.

The scene was instantly lively, with everyone enjoying barbecue and drinks in a cheerful and harmonious atmosphere. Some raised their glasses and laughed loudly, while others chatted quietly, their faces beaming with satisfaction.

Zhou Qi's gaze was involuntarily drawn to Miss Su, and he was momentarily stunned. Miss Su's long, jet-black hair, as smooth as a waterfall, cascaded down her shoulders and was simply tied up with a single hairpin. The hairpin, though unadorned, perfectly complemented Miss Su's elegant demeanor.

She wore a moon-white dress, the pure color like the bright moonlight shining on her, her clothes fluttering as if she could dance in the wind at any moment.

The dress was made of a light and soft material, which swayed slightly with her movements, adding to its ethereal beauty. A light blue ribbon was tied around her waist, perfectly outlining her slender waist, and the long skirt trailed on the ground, like a blooming lily.

Miss Su was like a fairy descended from heaven, ethereal and captivating. Such beauty naturally attracted the attention of many ladies and young women.

They couldn't help but whisper among themselves, "Miss Su is truly stunningly beautiful; no wonder the general values ​​her so highly."

“Indeed, such a beautiful person, even I couldn’t help but stare in a daze,” said another official’s wife.

For a moment, everyone was talking about it. No one expected that Miss Su was not only beautiful, but also gentle and kind, and always treated others with courtesy.

The maids beamed with joy upon hearing these compliments. Indeed, in their hearts, their mistress was the best mistress.

However, for some reason, a quarrel suddenly broke out in the distance. Su Lianxue frowned slightly, then instructed, "Xiao Tao, go and see what's going on."

So Xiaotao hurriedly ran over, thinking to herself: Who on earth is so bold as to cause trouble here?

"You blind fool!" Lin Yuexi cursed angrily. Lying on the ground was a girl in a pink cotton dress; this was the second young lady of the Chen family.

Her face was filled with fear, and she trembled, completely unaware of who the woman in the gorgeous clothes before her was. Left with no other choice, she could only kneel and weep, begging for forgiveness.

As soon as Xiao Tao arrived, she saw the situation and quickly helped Miss Chen up. Then she looked at Lin Yuexi and said seriously, "Miss Lin, today is the day Miss Su is hosting a banquet for guests. Everyone here is an invited guest. What you are doing is inappropriate."

Lin Yuexi was still furious when she heard this: "She ruined my clothes. These are precious silks brought from the capital."

Xiao Tao replied, "Even the most precious clothes are just external possessions. Miss Lin, don't let a small thing ruin the atmosphere of today's banquet. If the General finds out, aren't you afraid of his punishment?"

Xiao Tao paused for a moment, then continued, "How about we discuss how to resolve this matter after the banquet?"

Although Lin Yuexi was unwilling, she was also afraid when she thought of the general's punishment. She knew that it was not advisable to make a fuss about this matter, so she snorted coldly and stopped talking.
