Chapter 40: The Cowardly and Beautiful Concubine's Daughter and the Cold-Faced Heirless General



When he returned to the mansion in a carriage, he saw many spirit banners hanging in the mansion, and his heart suddenly jumped.

He tried hard not to think about the worst outcome. He thought that maybe Uncle Wang didn't survive the winter. After all, he was in his forties or fifties, so the family decorated the mourning hall.
