Quick Transmigration Hoarding: My Selfishness Leads to a Killing Frenzy

In the antique courtyard, rows of servants stood below, all staring at her. Qingmo had just entered and didn't know what to say.

Judging from her clothes and appearance, she should be the owner, so there's nothing to worry about.

"Someone, help me back to my room to rest, I have a headache." A maidservant hurriedly came over to support her, and Qingmo leaned against the maidservant as she walked.

The maid escorted her back to her room and asked if she needed to call a doctor. Qingmo gave her a few perfunctory replies and left, then lay on the bed to receive her memories.

The original owner's name was An Qingmo, and she was twenty-two years old this year. She was the legitimate daughter of a fourth-rank official and married to the military general Xue Yuanzhi.

Five years into their marriage, Xue Yuanzhi rose from a lowly sixth-rank general to a third-rank general, his achievements earned through battle.

The couple had a son, Xue Huai Ren, who is four years old this year. Xue Yuan Zhi was often away on military campaigns, so the original owner of the household managed all the affairs.

She was dutiful to her mother-in-law, took care of her unmarried brother-in-law, and taught her son. The couple was loving and there were no concubines. Everything was harmonious.

But everything changed after Liu Ruyan arrived. The general returned from fighting on the border with a pregnant orphan girl.

He said she had stayed with him in the border region for two years, that she had saved his life, that he wanted to marry her as his second wife, and that he wanted her to be tolerant and generous.

The original owner felt her head buzzing. Every word he said was on her behalf. Her mother-in-law said she was well-educated and polite, and told her to understand that it was normal for men to have multiple wives and concubines. Her brother-in-law called her "little sister-in-law" very affectionately. Her son called her "father" every time.

No one asked her if she was sad. They only said that the general respected and loved her, and had not taken a concubine for five years, which was something that ordinary men would find difficult to do. He had been good enough to her.

Her mother-in-law was very close to her, and she did all the housework herself. Her mother-in-law never criticized or belittled her, and her brother-in-law was obedient and never disobeyed her as the eldest sister-in-law.

She thought they would say a word for her, but they didn't, making her past closeness to them seem especially ridiculous.

She was powerless to refute anything. Her husband would take a concubine sooner or later, and she was already mentally prepared. But he wanted to marry her as an equal, which was like trampling her dignity into the mud.

Even her mother came to persuade her to back down, because he had become a rising star in the court. After returning victorious from a battle, he used his merits to petition the emperor, who then ordered that he be married to a concubine.

What can she say? What can she do?

One step back leads to another. Xue Yuanzhi married his beautiful wife, who gave birth to their second son in just four months. Meanwhile, Liu Ruyan gradually stripped away her power in the mansion, and the servants all changed sides based on the wind.

In just three years, she withered away like a faded flower in a corner of the backyard, forgotten by everyone.

Her son only idolizes his father, who is a general and a hero, while his mother is just a woman abandoned in her boudoir and cannot keep his father's heart. Therefore, he only has Liu Ruyan as his mother.

How ridiculous! How could he possibly think he could survive in the cannibalistic general's mansion without his own mother?

Two years after the original owner's death, he became lame in one leg, becoming the second laughing stock in the general's mansion. Meanwhile, the general and his wife lived a loving life together, becoming a beautiful story among the people.

Tomorrow is the day Xue Yuanzhi will bring Liu Ruyan back, and she was just in the courtyard instructing the servants on how to welcome the general tomorrow.

Well... I guess all generals have a common problem: if they don't bring back one or two women from a battle, they might not win the war and they'll die on the battlefield and never come back.

To put it bluntly, it's just that he couldn't stand the loneliness. A bunch of grown men in a military camp, and suddenly he met a woman.

He was looking at sows, and they were all beautiful and charming. Xiao Dao pulled on his buttocks; he must have opened his third eye and seen true love.

What reason is there not to grant this wish? Money is precious, but love is even more valuable; and for the sake of freedom, I shall sit at the head table.

The original owner only had one trusted confidante, her dowry maid Xiao Taohong. The rest of the household were worthless; they were all people who would side with whoever the wind blew. It was alright; she was magnanimous and wouldn't hold it against them.

Jie Jie Jie...

I'll rest today, take a health supplement, and go see a play tomorrow.

Later, her mother-in-law, Madam Xue, sent someone to invite her to a meeting, but she refused, citing a headache.

Close the door, bring out a plate of crayfish and beer, and you've got the cool factor. There's nothing a crayfish meal can't fix.

If one meal wasn't enough, she'd have two. It was so spicy that she had to go to the toilet the next day, feeling a burning, sour sensation.

The next morning, the maid knocked loudly on the door. Before the rooster crowed, the old lady told her to go to the front hall to wait for the general's return.

Damn it, are you up so early to collect your son's body? Are you rushing back for the funeral? That thing won't arrive until this afternoon, so you're asking her to go over and keep vigil now?

A teacup was smashed on the door, and someone was told to get out. The maid outside was so frightened that she hurried back to report to the old lady. She had never seen the young mistress so angry in the years since she was married into the family.

When Madam Xue heard what the servants said, she sent her trusted confidante, Granny Li, to fetch someone, but Qingmo scolded her and sent her back.

That old hag is probably halfway to the grave. The old thing just doesn't get enough sleep. She won't sleep herself and she won't let anyone else sleep either. Qingmo cursed and grumbled for a while before pulling up the covers to catch up on her sleep.

Meanwhile, Madam Xue was filled with unease. Could it be that Madam An had found out that Yuanzhi had brought back a mistress? Otherwise, why would she suddenly be so angry?

It should be noted that Madam An has always been very respectful to her mother-in-law, yet she was scolded by her own people both times she went to invite her. This is suspicious.

Right now, Madam Xue can't think about that much anymore. Once her son Yuanzhi returns, everything will naturally fall into place.

Men shouldn't be bound to one woman. If she persuades Mrs. An, it won't be a big deal.

Besides, Madam An only gave birth to one son, so how could the Xue family prosper? Madam Liu is now pregnant, which can be considered as continuing the Xue family line. I believe Madam An would not dare to have any objections.

The old lady had her own plans in mind, so she didn't send anyone to invite Qingmo, since she would go to welcome her husband anyway.
