The daily life of a cold and aloof general raising his wife

"Princess, rest assured, I will definitely give you an explanation. I will see you off respectfully."

Uncle Hui'an couldn't wait for Jiang Shuwan to leave.

Jiang Shuwan got up to leave, but stopped halfway. "My cousin was frightened today and had a miscarriage. I don't want anything to happen to her in the future."

"Please rest assured, Your Highness, your third daughter-in-law will be absolutely safe and sound," Marquis Huian assured him.

Jiang Shuwan then left the Huian Marquis's residence with her entourage.

On the way back to the General's Mansion, Jiang Shuwan instructed Feiyue to find a trustworthy doctor to go to the Huian Earl's Mansion until Du Siyu gave birth safely.

Fei Yue remembered in her heart that she had been really frightened just now, fearing that Song Wanqing, that crazy woman, would hurt Jiang Shuwan.

The dagger in Song Wanqing's hand was deliberately left in the dilapidated house by Jiang Shuwan, who knew that Song Wanqing would use it for self-defense if she saw it.

Everything today was planned by Jiang Shuwan; the only thing she didn't foresee was that Du Siyu was pregnant.

Song Wanqing is dead. It was all her own doing. If someone as wicked as her were alive, countless people would suffer at her hands.

From now on, the Huian Marquis's mansion is a thing of the past for her; she will live a good life in this life.

Mingxiang Garden at night

Jiang Shuwan told Xie Huai'an everything that had happened at the Huian Marquis's residence that day.

The people who monitored Song Wanqing and the kidnapping of Song Wanqing were all brought by Jiang Shuwan from the Grand Princess's residence. She did not tell Xie Huai'an about this, mainly because she did not know how to say it. Could she tell Xie Huai'an that she was a person who had lived a second life?

Jiang Shuwan then rejected the idea. Putting aside the fact that it was absurd and strange, the most important thing was that she didn't want to keep dwelling on it. She was very satisfied with her current life.

Although Xie Huai'an didn't know exactly what Jiang Shuwan was doing, he knew she had been quite busy lately. After hearing about this in the evening, he was very worried about her.

"You'd better visit the Marquis of Huian's residence less often in the future."

Xie Huai'an felt that the Huian Marquis's residence was not a good place.

Jiang Shuwan nodded, "Don't worry, apart from my cousin, I won't have any dealings with anyone from the Huian Marquis's mansion."

She was afraid Xie Huai'an would mind because she had been engaged to He Zhilin before.

"I was engaged to He Zhilin before, but that's all in the past."

Hearing her explanation, Xie Huai'an felt somewhat pleased.

"I know."

“He Zhilin did save me, but I repaid his kindness, so I have no connection with him.”

Jiang Shuwan wanted to talk things out. Xie Huai'an was honest with her, and she didn't want to hide anything from him, except for the matter of her rebirth.

**

He Zhilin arrived the next day, and Xie Huai'an was also there when he arrived.

When the maid led He Zhilin to the hall, Jiang Shuwan and Xie Huai'an had already arrived. He Zhilin saw the two of them from afar and wondered what they were talking about. Jiang Shuwan had a sweet smile on her face, a smile he had never seen her smile like before, and he was momentarily stunned.

When Jiang Shuwan and Xie Huai'an saw He Zhilin arrive, their smiles vanished.

"Princess, thank you, General." He Zhilin bowed.

Jiang Shuwan nodded slightly.

Xie Huai'an, on the other hand, had a blank and sour face, making He Zhilin wonder if he had just seen things.

Xie Huai'an said coldly, "The Huian Marquis's family is a prominent noble family in the capital. How dare someone commit violence in broad daylight in your mansion!"

"It was all due to the lack of discipline in the household that the princess was disturbed. I have come here today specifically to apologize and give the princess an explanation." He Zhilin's attitude was very humble.

Xie Huai'an snorted coldly.

"The assassin was a cousin who lived in the manor. Recently, my cousin had been mentally unstable, so my mother sent her to the estate to recuperate. Who knew she would run away? Yesterday, we were interrogating her when the princess appeared. My cousin, in her mental state, almost accidentally injured the princess. In the chaos yesterday, she accidentally committed suicide."

Mental disorder?

Did he accidentally commit suicide?

Jiang Shuwan found these things somewhat amusing.

“A mentally unstable person is already dead. If I were to pursue this matter further, your family might think I’m being unreasonable. Forget it, I won’t pursue this matter any further.”

Hearing that Jiang Shuwan would not pursue the matter further, He Zhilin breathed a sigh of relief.

Xie Huai'an suddenly said in a teasy tone, "Princess, you are just too good-natured, which makes some people ungrateful."

He Zhilin, “…”

He Zhilin was unhappy when he heard Xie Huai'an's words, but since his family was in the wrong, he only felt unhappy inside and did not show it on his face.

Jiang Shuwan said solemnly, "The general is right, but I can let this matter go for the sake of my cousin. Now that my cousin is carrying the child of your He family, I hope that the previous incident will not be repeated."

"Princess, rest assured."

He Zhilin guarantees this.

"Then we won't keep Young Master He at home for dinner."

"My minister retire."

He Zhilin bowed and left.

Xie Huai'an disliked He Zhilin; he never did.

Jiang Shuwan changed the subject, "General, how about we go to Kemanlou for dinner tonight? It's been a long time since I've eaten there."

Xie Huai'an looked at her with doting eyes, "Okay."

He Zhilin stopped at the corner and turned around to see Jiang Shuwan smiling as she spoke to Xie Huai'an. Since Xie Huai'an married Jiang Shuwan, he had not only risen rapidly in rank, but his household had also never been the subject of any jokes. Unlike him, who had been plagued by one scandal after another in the past year.

If I had married Jiang Shuwan back then, would the incident at the Huian Marquis's mansion have been avoided? Jiang Shuwan comes from a prestigious family, so her steward must be very capable.

Realizing he had such thoughts, He Zhilin inwardly despised himself, even though he and Ruoqing were clearly in love.

The maids in the general's mansion looked at He Zhilin with suspicion, not understanding why he had suddenly stopped.

He Zhilin left the general's mansion after taking a serious look.

Uncle Hui'an breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing his son's reply; the matter was over, and no one remembered Song Wanqing afterward.

Song's father had never had any fatherly affection for Song Wanqing. When this happened, he was afraid that Song Wanqing would implicate him. Fortunately, everything was alright in the end. When he left the Huian Marquis's mansion, he didn't even take Song Wanqing's body with him. He said bluntly that this girl was extremely rebellious and that he was severing his father-daughter relationship with Song Wanqing.

Madam Ye was still in bed after being frightened. Marquis Hui'an didn't care about the state of Song Wanqing's body. In the end, He Zhilin had someone find a place to bury Song Wanqing's body. Two servants found a deserted field, dug a hole, and buried it haphazardly.

Song Wanqing was born into a legitimate family and was literate, learned to read and write, and excelled in etiquette among her sisters from a young age. Unfortunately, she was cruel and ended up with such a tragic fate.

Lin Ruoqing felt relieved now, having avenged her son with her own hands. She even felt that stabbing Song Wanqing to death was too lenient for her; such a vicious person should go to the eighteenth level of hell and never be reincarnated!
