The next morning, the front yard of the general's mansion became lively.

Manager Li followed his wife's instructions and waited here for the general's return early in the morning. Sure enough, he saw a familiar figure and horse approaching!

"It's the general, it's the general!"

Steward Li is the old man in the front yard. He is quite old and was a follower of the old lady in his early years. Later, Guo Liangxian was promoted by Prince Xian, and Steward Li naturally became the steward of the general's mansion, in charge of trivial matters in the front yard.

The schedule was supposed to be yesterday, but Guo Liangxian returned home at this time, and his wife's prediction was indeed accurate.

Manager Li came over happily to lead the horse, but unexpectedly discovered that there was another woman behind the general, who was slender and looked like a beautiful girl from a small family.

"This is Steward Li from our mansion."

Guo Liangxian jumped off the horse, turned around, helped the woman down, and introduced her to him.

Seeing the general holding hands with another woman, Li Guanshi felt something was wrong and panicked, but he did not ask any further questions. Instead, he smiled and said,

"Everything has been arranged in the mansion. Please go in, General."

Guo Liangxian nodded and took Lin Yan'er to the mansion.

The sound of firecrackers crackling rang out!

Originally, it was to celebrate the general's return home, but unexpectedly, in Lin Yan'er's eyes, it seemed like a welcome to her.

"General..."

Lin Yan'er looked at Guo Liangxian with concern, her face full of tension and a little fear, which instantly aroused his desire to protect her.

He held her in his arms and comforted her, "It's okay, I will take care of it for you."

After Manager Li handed the horse to the servant in the mansion, he followed in. Seeing Lin Yan'er's seductive demeanor, he felt sick!

Just now, when the general introduced Manager Li, Lin Yan'er didn't even glance at him and didn't take him, the chief manager of the mansion, seriously.

Can you be so arrogant just because the general likes you?

"The old lady hasn't woken up yet. I guess she got up after hearing the noise." Manager Li walked over and said with a smile.

Guo Liangxian frowned, "Who told you to set off the firecrackers?"

Steward Li said, "It was arranged by the Madam. We were supposed to celebrate the General's return home last night, and all the delicious food was prepared, but unfortunately the General was at a banquet in the palace and didn't come."

Guo Liangxian understood, it seemed that his wife was quite magnanimous.

He was planning to take Lin Yan'er to the main hall to rest for a while and wait for people from the mansion to show up, but unexpectedly, he ran into Yuan Xueyue on the way there.

Both sides were surprised.

Steward Li stepped forward and said, "Madam, the general has just returned. You must have heard the firecrackers and came over. I apologize for disturbing you."

Yuan Xueyue smiled and shook her head, taking everything lightly. "It's okay. Manager Li, please ask the kitchen to prepare the meal early and make it more substantial."

Manager Li didn't expect the lady to come so quickly. He was thinking of going over to explain, but now he can only let the lady and the general face it alone.

Manager Li slipped away, leaving Yuan Xueyue and her husband who was hugging another woman across from her.

This situation is quite inappropriate.

Lin Yan'er showed no intention of struggling, and there was even a hint of pride on the corner of her mouth!

Facing the silent gaze of her husband Guo Liangxian, Yuan Xueyue calmly stepped forward and bowed,

"Welcome back, General."

Guo Liangxian was very surprised. Why didn't she ask the woman next to her about the situation first?

He said, "Thank you for your hard work. The person next to you will explain it to you later."

The meaning is very clear, the two of them hugged each other, taking the lead.

It was the same in the previous life, but Yuan Xueyue in the previous life questioned him heartbreakingly, behaved in an ugly manner, and was extremely disgusting!

Now, all we have to do is stay calm and live up to the chance of rebirth given by God.

Cuiping, who was standing by, was shocked. How could the general hug another woman in front of his wife?

Where did this woman come from?

Yuan Xueyue nodded calmly, "Okay, it's not easy for the general to return. Go and rest first. Cuiping will bring tea."

Cuiping went to make arrangements in a depressed mood.

In the main hall, Lin Yan'er looked at the high beams, large courtyard, large house, murals, and corridors that were unique to the big house. It took time to walk in. Her eyes revealed longing and expectation!

The maids came in one by one to serve tea, first to the general and then to Lin Yan'er.

When they saw foreign women for the first time, there was surprise in their eyes.

Little did she know that before the maid even stepped out of the door, Lin Yan'er immediately picked up the teacup, and it was so hot that she screamed and dropped it!

"ah!"

Bang, bang!

The teacup broke and the tea spilled all over the floor.

Guo Liangxian immediately stood up and came over to check, pulled Lin Yan'er's injured hand and started shouting!

"Why are you so careless?" Guo Liangxian's eyes were full of heartache.

This scene happened to be seen by Yuan Xueyue who just walked in.

The maid stood there in embarrassment, and was scolded by Guo Liangxian, "How do you do things? How dare you bring such hot tea?"

Yuan Xueyue came over and said,

"Don't blame them. The general came back so early that the maids didn't have time to prepare just the right amount of tea. Normally, people who knew would sit down for a while before drinking. Isn't this girl a little too impatient?"

The implication is that if you want to get promoted, you have to take it slow.

Unfortunately, Lin Yan'er's ambition will not let her let go of this opportunity so easily.

"General, my hands hurt! I'm just thirsty."

Lin Yan'er pouted and said aggrievedly, with a pitiful look in her eyes.

Guo Liangxian glanced at the calm Yuan Xueyue and felt something was strange. Was this really the wife he had been keeping for five years?

"Yan'er comes from a commoner background, so it's normal that she doesn't know the rules. Hurry up and prepare some tea, don't neglect the guests!" Guo Liangxian scolded the maids.

The two maids lowered their heads and retreated to prepare.

Yuan Xueyue said, "So the girl's name is Yan'er. She shouldn't be a guest in the mansion anymore. The general said the wrong thing."

These words made Guo Liangxian feel guilty.

He felt very guilty and had planned to wait for the old lady to come before announcing it together, but unexpectedly his wife Yuan Xueyue saw it first.

He had nowhere to hide, so he could only wait and see the other party's reaction.

But this lukewarm attitude made Guo Liangxian feel even more guilty.

"Yes, you are right. She is not a guest from now on." Guo Liangxian lowered his head.

Lin Yan'er raised her head confidently, bowed as if to perform a formal ceremony, and said, "Greetings to the Madam."

"Yan'er will serve the general well for Madam in the future."

Lin Yan'er cast a declaratory look at Yuan Xueyue, but she returned the look coldly.

"Thank you, Miss Lin. When the old lady comes later, I will have to ask for her opinion. I hope Miss Lin will behave better."

Guo Liangxian's eyes lit up in surprise.

Did she agree? He hadn't even asked for it!

Lin Yan'er was also surprised. She didn't expect the general's wife to be so easy to talk to. She immediately came over and tried to hold Yuan Xueyue's gloves, but she withdrew her hand and dodged.

"Madam, you are so generous!"

Lin Yan'er was just embarrassed for a moment, and her face soon became happy.

The sound of footsteps was getting closer, and Xingger also heard the sound of firecrackers and came over!

As soon as he saw Guo Liangxian, he shouted, "Uncle!"

Guo Liangxian was stunned by the shout. He knew from the letter that his mother had adopted his sister's son, but he didn't expect it to happen so soon.
