Xiao Yunying waited for a long time before Luo Sheng finally spoke, saying, "I will stay here for the next few days. If there is a summons from above, you will indeed need to take care of the children for a while longer."
Xiao Yunying frowned: "What do you take me for? A maid who takes care of the children!"
Luo Sheng said calmly, "Marrying you was not my wish, but now that I have married you, I will take responsibility. As long as you want, you can always be the general's wife of the Luo family."
He already knew that the information he had previously inquired about was all untrue.
He could tell that the children had a good relationship with her.
She can fake that, but the children can't.
I wouldn't pretend for her.
In any case, he will never marry another girl in this lifetime, so it's not a problem to keep her as the general's wife.
At least she was genuinely good to the children.
Xiao Yunying thought this man was very narcissistic: "Who wants to be a general's wife? Luo Sheng, not everyone is greedy for wealth and power. Back then... if I were that kind of person, how could I have married a poor divorced man like you with a child?"
Whether it was the original owner's memories affecting her or not, Xiao Yunying not only felt angry, but also felt deeply aggrieved.
“Back then, you took your mother to the city for medical treatment, promising to come back in a few days. You even took my dowry money, but you never returned.”
You are a general who has been fighting on the frontier for a long time. You are not the kind of idle and pleasure-seeking playboy.
Then you should know how hard life is for farmers, let alone me, a girl.
Have you ever thought about how I, a woman with four children, am left to fend for myself after you took all our savings and disappeared without a trace for the past two years?
She knew that Luo Sheng might have his reasons, and might not be in control of his own destiny.
She had already made it clear that she would listen to his explanation, but he refused to say a single word.
Luo Yong frowned as well: "The reason there was no letter is because I couldn't write. I'm sorry for taking your money... and..."
His words were halting, and after a moment of silence, he continued, "I am not the Luo Sheng you knew back then..."
Xiao Yunying thought he was emphasizing his change in identity, indicating that he was no longer the ordinary civilian he used to be.
She said defiantly, "Is that so? That's perfect. I'm not the Xiao Yunying you used to know anymore. The Xiao Yunying you know is dead."
Since neither of us is who we used to be, we probably can't get along. We might as well get a divorce sooner rather than later.
After saying that, she turned and left, pulling Luo Xin, who was eavesdropping nearby, back into the house.
Sitting at the table, Xiao Yunying felt an uncontrollable fire burning in her heart.
I poured myself a glass of cold water and drank it in a few gulps. After sitting for a while, I realized that I had acted too impulsively.
Looking back now, it has little to do with me. She wasn't the original owner of this body, so why was she so angry?
Then, after a second thought, he sighed again.
Perhaps because she empathized with the original owner's experience, her grievances also came inexplicably and uncontrollably.
But now that they're getting a divorce, what will happen to Luo Xin? If she angers him, he definitely won't be able to keep the little girl.
Luo Xin clenched her hands and whispered, "Mother, are you going to divorce Father again?"
"Again? Why do you say 'again'?"
Luo Xin took two steps closer: "My second brother told me that Mother has already written a divorce agreement for my eldest brother."
Xiao Yunying was so angry that she lost her mind, and only remembered after Luo Xin reminded her.
"Xin'er, your mother and your father may really not be able to get along..."
Putting everything else aside, she just couldn't stand his cold and aloof nature; he wouldn't utter a sound even after being hit three times.
"If Mother is unhappy with Father, then let's separate."
Luo Xin walked over and hugged Xiao Yunying: "Second brother said that mother likes freedom, likes the freedom of not being restrained. If mother really doesn't like father, then let's separate. Xin'er doesn't want mother to be unhappy."
Xiao Yunying felt a pang of sadness in her heart. She hugged Xin'er for a while before saying, "What if your father takes you away with him after your mother and you are separated?"
Luo Xin pursed her lips, looking determined: "It's okay. Although Xin'er will miss Mother, Xin'er doesn't want Mother to be unhappy. Xin'er can come to see Mother herself when she grows up."
Luo Xin hugged Luo Xin again: "Good Xin'er, let Mother try again. For you, Mother is willing to try again."
Zheng Yunwan was still not fully recovered, so Xiao Yunying went out to cook lunch for her.
After finishing cooking, she thought that she couldn't let things get too tense with Luo Sheng for Luo Xin's sake, so she asked Zheng Yunwan to call him for dinner, and went to the farmhands' quarters herself.
They had finished lunch. Xiao Yunying entered the middle courtyard and greeted, "Aunt Dai."
All of the Dai family members except Dai Jincai came out. Xiao Yunying hurriedly said, "No need for everyone to come out. I just came to see how Jincai is doing. You all go and rest."
At her urging, everyone else went home, leaving only Aunt Dai to lead her to Dai Jincai's house.
As soon as Xiao Yunying entered the room, Dai Jincai opened his eyes, recognized who it was, and tried to sit up.
"Don't get up, just lie still."
Dai Jincai aggravated his injuries, hissed as he twitched his lips, and obediently lay down.
Aunt Dai brought over a stool, and Xiao Yunying thanked her and sat down, asking, "Why aren't you asleep? Is your wound hurting?"
Dai Jincai chuckled and replied, "It's not that my wound hurts. I slept from yesterday afternoon until almost noon today, and now I can't fall back asleep."
Xiao Yunying knew he was lying as soon as she heard it.
There are no painkillers here, but we do have anesthetic powder. However, we can't use that medicine indefinitely, as his injury must be painful.
Have you taken your medicine?
