Actually, Yang Moran was a little nervous. Finally, the scene from the novel had arrived, the moment of repaying a life-saving debt with his body. Thinking that she would become a general's wife in the future, he was overjoyed.
"Since I gave you the money back then, and you accepted it, that means you accepted my gift of gratitude, doesn't it?"
The young general looked at her coldly, a playful smile on his lips. This little village girl probably doesn't think she can get her hands on him, does she?
“But…” Yang Moran was stunned by what the young general said. She instinctively felt that something was wrong. “But people say that if someone saves your life, you should repay them with your body.”
Young General: "???"
The moment the young general drew his sword, Yang Mo took two steps back, a little scared. Unlike her previous life, which was smooth sailing and involved meeting several men, she was now slowly finding a husband in this village. Old Mrs. Yang was even preparing to find her a suitable match.
Now that Old Mrs. Yang is old, she can only rely on her eldest son and daughter-in-law. But her son has changed since that incident. He gets angry easily, and her daughter-in-law has gone from gentle and weak to fierce. Old Mrs. Yang is having a hard time now, let alone Yang Moran.
If it weren't for Old Lady Yang protecting her, she probably would have been married off to anyone else long ago.
"Who do you think you are? What right do you have to marry this general?"
"Auntie is fine too. I saved you, so you give me wealth and status and let me leave this place, okay?"
Yang Moran was quite confident in her charm and believed that she would definitely be able to make the general fall in love with her in the future.
You still don't deserve it!
"Is that girl alright? As long as you can take me away from this village, I'll do anything."
The young general saw through her ambition and restlessness. "Alright, then I'll take you with me."
Then the young general arrived at Mo Yan's house and met Xiao Hua and Xiao Cao.
He recognized the girl who had truly saved him at a glance, and that was all he saw.
He was already engaged, and besides... he had his own future. Moreover, having saved her life once, he should give her brother a life of wealth and honor in the future. That's more than enough, isn't it?
Grandma Yang was overjoyed to learn that her granddaughter was going to follow the general, but little did she know that she was only going to be a maid.
Xiaocao also recalled what happened back then, but she knew very well that going to such a family would be suicide.
She had heard too many stories from her mother, and she felt it was too pathetic to be trapped in the backyard and place all her hopes for her life on a man.
She didn't feel she should do anything after saving someone once. She didn't think about repaying when she saved the person, and now when she sees them again, she just thinks, "Oh, so that's the person."
Later, Da Hua became the third-ranked scholar in the imperial examination and became a local official. Xiao Hua went to the battlefield to defend his country, while Xiao Cao followed her mother, wielding a sword and traveling all over the world.
“Mother, I want to travel with you, to see all the mountains and rivers, just like you and Grandpa did back then, and to practice medicine and save lives along the way.”
"OK."
Yang Moran, who thought she could rise to a high position, ended up working as a maid in the general's mansion, with endless chores every day.
Later, when the general's wife found out that she had once wanted to marry him, she beat her so badly that she became crippled and was thrown out.
She was all alone on the street, forced to beg for a living.
She didn't understand why her life had turned out this way. She was supposed to be the general's wife, the general's darling.
At some point, the general appeared before her. "Do you know why you've become like this?"
"Why?"
“You were too greedy. You had already taken 20 taels of silver back then, so you should have kept to your lot. Instead, you wanted more. You deserve what you got.”
In the end, she froze to death on the street, while back in her hometown, Old Lady Yang was still waiting for Yang Moran to become a general's concubine so that he could come and take her away.
Later, the eldest sister-in-law successfully took control of everything, making Old Lady Yang work every day. If she didn't work, she wouldn't have anything to eat, and she couldn't refuse to work.
Later on, Old Lady Yang was even kicked out, and she wasn't allowed to come back into the house unless she came back with firewood every day.
Old Mrs. Yang fell seriously ill, but no one cared for her. Her other grandsons all listened to their mother and didn't interfere in her affairs. Old Mrs. Yang regretted it.
Of course, Old Mrs. Yang didn't know what she regretted. Maybe it was kicking Mo Yan and the others out of the house, or maybe it was letting Yang Moran leave, or maybe it was being mean to her daughter-in-law back then.
Just when Grandma Yang was seriously ill, Dahua sent people to take care of her.
Old Mrs. Yang was finally able to have some good days in her final days. She wanted to go find her grandson, who was an official, but she no longer had the strength.
Before closing her eyes, she thought, why did I feel sorry for the wrong person back then? I should have been kinder to Mo Yan and the others.
She regretted it, she really regretted it.
If she hadn't treated them that way, would she have been able to enjoy a couple more years of good life, and would she have become an old lady?
Xiao Hua later performed many extraordinary feats, and also had a very powerful healer sister who always helped them save people.
The young general kept watching Xiao Hua and his sister, just watching.
The young general knew very well what he wanted, and he also knew that he should treat his wife well.
Only people like this can succeed and climb the ladder step by step. They also know how to recognize and make good use of their talents.
Da Hua and Xiao Hua later became people who would be recorded in history, while Xiao Cao was also an extraordinary woman and a divine doctor.
Xiao Cao dedicated her life to healing and saving lives, writing and publishing numerous medical books to enable more people to learn medicine, and even publishing a separate book on the different types of children.
Xiao Cao later took on many apprentices. Although she never married, she was always happy and continued to do what she wanted to do.
