You can't marry her! I won't allow you to marry her!

She's here! She's here! The groom-stealer has arrived!

Upon seeing Zhou Shumin, Yu Meng was overjoyed, and Xia Yuqiu's lips also curled slightly. Zhou Shumin's arrival so quickly was unexpected.

Xia Chunmei was also very excited. Was she about to start a power struggle within the family?

Thinking about it, I'm actually kind of looking forward to it.

"Throw her out!" Baili Xiao said with a dark face.

"Miss Zhou, today is my master's big day. I advise you not to cause any trouble!" After saying that, Erbing pulled her outside.

Zhou Shumin struggled and shouted, "She's just a peasant girl, how could she be worthy of you? General Baili, don't be fooled by her!"

General?

Upon hearing this, the people accompanying the bride widened their eyes in shock: Xia Chunmei had actually married a general! My God!

Especially the Xu family members in the wedding procession, they could tell that Ning Xiao was no ordinary person, but they never expected that he would be the famous General Baili!

The fearsome King Yama of Baili!

He was also a favorite of the emperor!

It is said that when the emperor was young, he was very playful and once joined the army under an assumed name. He was a comrade-in-arms in the same trench as the emperor and fought side by side for more than a year. The emperor even saved him once.

Who can shake the bond forged through shared experiences of battle, shared hardships, and a life-saving grace?

Xu Qingfeng knew Xia Chunmei was quite capable, but he never expected her to be so lucky! She suddenly married General Baili!

Fortunately, my daughter didn't offend anyone too badly, otherwise...

Xu Qingfeng felt a wave of fear wash over him.

At this moment, Baili Xiao said in a deep voice: "Whether you are worthy or not is not up to you to decide. Who do you think you are?"

"On my joyous day, you come to humiliate my wife, ruin my plans, and bring me bad luck! Erbing, drag her out and pull out all her teeth! Have someone send her back to Xiangzhou City and tell He Lian that if he can't even manage his niece, he might as well not be the prefect of Xiangzhou!"

Everyone was shocked to hear this.

Yu Meng was terrified, a chill running down her spine. General Baili didn't even give Lord He any face! If he found out she had tipped off Zhou Shuimian, then she…

No, no, no, the letter was sent by Xia Yuqiu, it has nothing to do with me. As long as I deny it to the death, that's fine. Besides, there's Miss here, she will definitely protect me!

Yu Meng's mind was in turmoil, and she comforted herself again and again.

Xia Chunmei was also in a daze for a long time, the words "Xiangzhou Tongpan" still echoing in her mind.

This girl is actually the niece of the Prefect of Xiangzhou. Isn't that the original owner's cousin?

The original owner's true identity is the second daughter of He Lian, the prefect of Xiangzhou!

Zhou Shumin, I think she was mentioned in the original novel. Her mother died saving He Lian, and her father remarried, so her life was difficult. He Lian took her to live in the He family, and she was favored no less than the family's daughter, He Yunjie. However, her personality was much worse than He Yunjie's.

In the original story, when the original owner returned to the He family, he was bullied openly and secretly, with all sorts of sarcasm, difficulties, and contempt.

Later, after the original owner turned evil, she was sent to a group of beggars, where she was raped by them, and her fate was extremely tragic.

"No! You can't do this to me! I'm doing this for your own good!" Zhou Shumin's terrified voice interrupted Xia Chunmei's thoughts.

"It's not auspicious to see blood on this joyous day," Xia Chunmei said slowly.

Hearing this, Zhou Shumin breathed a sigh of relief, thinking that her teeth had finally been saved. However, she felt no gratitude at all. In her opinion, it was Xia Chunmei, that vixen, who was responsible for Baili Xiao pulling her teeth!

But Baili Xiao seemed to see through her little scheme and said, "Then drag her away first, gag her, and deal with her tomorrow!"

Zhou Shumin's eyes were wide open as she struggled violently. After making a few whimpering noises, she was dragged away.

Seeing that the man had been dragged away, the matchmaker continued the ceremony.

After being led into the bridal chamber, Baili Xiao lifted the red veil and saw Xia Chunmei's stunning beauty, his heart immediately raced.

"I'm sorry, I've made you suffer."

"You mean what happened with that girl earlier?"

"Yes, I have nothing to do with her. I don't know what got into her to ruin our wedding. I will definitely give you an explanation for this! You are my woman, and unless I fall, no Tom, Dick, or Harry can bully you."

"Thank you for defending me, but I'm not one to suffer every loss or be bullied by just anyone."

Baili Xiao almost forgot that his wife, an orphan, was a daring little cutie (ruthless) who dared to meet human traffickers alone at night, drive the former clan chief's family out of the village, and send her former future mother-in-law to jail!

"From now on, you can focus on your pregnancy and pursue the career you want. Leave the scum outside to me."

"Brother, our marriage is fake. Don't make it sound so nice. What if I believe you?" With his words and his face, Xia Chunmei was afraid that she would lose control and be seduced by his looks.

"I never considered our marriage a mere formality."

Xia Chunmei looked shocked and a little flustered: "Big brother, you're not going to back out, are you? We agreed on this beforehand."

Baili Xiao felt very uncomfortable with Xia Chunmei's reaction. Did she really want a divorce?

"I have no intention of going back on my word." Because he never planned to divorce in the first place.

"That's good, that's good." Xia Chunmei looked relieved, but Baili Xiao felt even more depressed.

"Where are we going to sleep tonight?" Xia Chunmei looked around the room, but there was nowhere else to sleep. On their wedding night, they couldn't just send the groom somewhere else, or they would give themselves away.

Baili Xiao's brow twitched: "I was injured on the battlefield before, so I can't get cold, therefore..."

"Then add another blanket to the bed, so there are two blankets on one bed."

Now that the two of them have a child, Xia Chunmei doesn't care about these things anymore.

When Xia Chunmei offered to let him sleep in the bed, Baili Xiao's previous displeasure vanished. They were already sleeping in the same bed, so how far were they from sharing a blanket?
