The Husband I Snagged Halfway Is Off

With both parents deceased, Yu Tingwan lived under others' roofs, diligently working from dawn till dusk. Her maternal aunt was cruel, intending to sell her to a lecherous gentryman well past s...

Chapter 395 She said I don't look like a good person.

The farm in the suburbs is surrounded by green mountains, deep pine forests, and gurgling streams.

The carriage of the Duke of Shun's mansion just stopped, and an elderly woman with gray hair strode over with a cane.

The woman was particularly happy: "Why didn't you tell me in advance that the general was coming."

Wei Zhao got off the carriage: "How are you these days?"

"I am an old woman, and I am fine because of your concern."

"This is Granny Ma."

Wei Zhao turned around to help Yu Tingwan, who had just half of her body out of the carriage: "The skill of making fish soup is the most delicious."

He rarely did this, which shows that Granny Ma is not an ordinary woman.

After Yu Tingwan got off the ground, he called softly: "Granny Ma."

Granny Ma looked Yu Tingwan up and down.

"Hey."

She responded happily and held Yu Tingwan's hand, as if she couldn't see enough.

"Is it Miss Shen?"

"Look at what I'm asking. Who else can the general bring here except Miss Shen? It must be right."

"Sure enough, she is as the general told me before, very pretty."

Yu Tingwan was slightly stunned.

Ma Pozi seemed not to notice her abnormality, and clasped her hands together again: "Thank God, I will tell you that you have been defending the country for so many years. You should talk to the one in the palace. He will definitely not insist on bringing Miss Shen into the harem because of the merits of the Wei family for generations."

"The emperor wants any woman. It's impossible that he will deliberately pick the one the general likes to annoy the general."

This is...

Yu Tingwan pursed her lips.

He thought Wei Zhao was his uncle, General Jingyuan.

He thought she was Shen Zhiyi's aunt, and now the Concubine Shen in the palace?

Ma Pozi looked very energetic and looked behind them again.

She frowned: "Your elder brother didn't come?"

Wei Zhao's Adam's apple rolled: "He's busy."

"Yes, yes, yes, you see how I forgot, the eldest son is now a duke, and he is always busy with the affairs of the court."

"Guizhi is three years old now, that is the first child of the Wei family. Your elder brother once brought him to me. Oh, the father and son look very similar."

Wei Zhao listened to her quietly, and was not in a hurry to enter the manor.

Ma Pozi laughed as she spoke.

She looked at Yu Tingwan again: "Miss Shen, our general is very caring. If you get married with him, he will definitely hold you in his hands and love you."

"When do you plan to get married?"

"Get married sooner and have children sooner. The Wei family is still too thin."

As she said, she felt inside her sleeves, trying to find something.

But she touched nothing.

She was a little anxious.

"Miss Shen, come with me."

She pulled Yu Tingwan and was about to walk in.

Yu Tingwan was afraid that she would fall, so she quickly supported her: "Mother-in-law, walk slowly and watch the road."

"I don't need to."

Wei Zhao did not stop him, and followed the two of them.

Yu Tingwan was pulled into the house by Ma Pozi.

This was where Ma Pozi lived, and the house was very clean.

Ma Pozi took out a black box from the bedside table, and she asked Yu Tingwan to sit down beside her.

It opened with a click.

There was a jade pendant inside.

The whole body is translucent, with a delicate texture, fine carvings, and complex but not messy patterns, emitting a faint glow.

Yu Tingwan narrowed her eyes.

She had seen exactly the same one before.

"The jade was from the madam's dowry when she was alive. The madam is skillful, and she carved two jade pendants with her own hands."

"She gave the other one to the eldest young master's wife on the day of the eldest son's wedding."

"Before she died, the lady gave it to me for safekeeping and asked me to make sure to deliver it to the second daughter-in-law."

Ma Pozi looked outside and saw Wei Zhaoli whispering something to Rong Di outside.

She whispered quietly.

"The general once took this jade pendant from me. He said that he had a girl he liked and that he would give her the jade pendant as a token of love when the marriage was proposed."

Ma Pozi: "But he didn't get his wish in the end."

Ma Pozi stuffed it into Yu Tingwan's hand.

"That's great."

"It shows that God still favors you. He will not separate lovers."

She teased with a loving expression: "Miss Shen, since you have received the jade pendant, you are the daughter-in-law of the Wei family."

Yu Tingwan lowered her head and pinched the jade pendant. It was obviously very small, but it felt heavy in her hand, and it was hard to breathe.

What a pity.

In the end, the uncle didn't give the jade pendant to his beloved girl.

Granny Ma wanted to show off her cooking skills, and soon she started stewing fish in a hurry.

Wei Zhao also heard the noise inside.

They would stay here tonight.

He first took Yu Tingwan back to the house where they would stay tonight. The house had obviously been cleaned, and the quilts were all new.

The house was not big, but it had everything it should have.

Yu Tingwan thought for a moment and put the jade pendant away.

"Granny Ma..."

Wei Zhao put down the bag he brought, took her out, and went to the back mountain.

Zhuangzi is not like Beijing, there is less noise, but the air is fresh, and the wind blows, causing the towering trees to rustle.

People's mood can be relaxed and peaceful.

"Grandma Ma used to serve my grandmother, and they were as close as sisters."

"She also helped raise my father and my uncle."

Wei Zhao: "When she was young, my grandmother betrothed her to a soldier in the Wei family army, but the soldier died before they got married."

"She never married."

"After my grandmother passed away, her spirit was not very good. My father sent her to the farm to recuperate."

"It's good this way, she doesn't miss the soldier. The people she misses, at least in her place, are still alive and well."

Yu Tingwan sighed, and didn't ask where Wei Zhao was taking her.

The two walked along the path, and the road became less flat.

But she was used to walking on country roads, let alone uneven roads, even if they were muddy, Yu Tingwan could walk steadily.

"Has Granny Ma always thought of your husband as her uncle?"

Wei Zhao: "Not really."

He lowered his head and smiled: "The first time we won the battle on the border, I brought Chi Yu here at full speed, ready to see her and stay overnight. Tomorrow we will meet up with the returning Wei army and enter the city." "

I was dusty and covered in mud, and I didn't have time to wash. I looked pretty embarrassed. But when we were delayed on the road and arrived at the farm, it was really late, so I wanted to go to the kitchen to get some food and find a place to rest for a while, but I didn't expect to wake up everyone in the farm."

"So I climbed over the wall and went in."

"Who would have thought that Granny Ma wasn't asleep. She didn't recognize me, and thought I was a thief, so she picked up a broom and drove me out."

Yu Tingwan felt that Wei Zhao was so pitiful when she heard it.

But...

"What about Chi Yu? Was he beaten too?"

Wei Zhao: "No."

"He was invited in by Granny Ma."

Yu Tingwan didn't understand: "Why?"

Wei Zhao: "Chi Yu was injured at the time. Granny Ma thought that he became a thief because he had to make a living, so she felt pity for him."

Wei Zhao was wearing armor, holding a Broken Cloud Spear, and he was cold and murderous.

Wei Zhao obviously didn't want to say more, and his face was gloomy: "She said I didn't look like a good person."
