"Girl, it's done."
The voice of the maid behind her woke Liuyin from her reverie.
Liu Yin glanced at the beautiful woman in the dim bronze mirror, smiled, and exuded an indescribable charm and radiance.
Caiqing was somewhat taken aback upon seeing this.
She's so beautiful; no wonder the general likes her. But the young lady and the general are a well-matched couple, both handsome and beautiful.
She's more suitable than Miss Biao.
Liuyin had no intention of going out, but someone came looking for her.
Gu Li had noticed that a maid was coming out to change the water in Liu Yin's room, so she knew that Liu Yin had already woken up.
They were waiting outside the door.
Caiqing saw this as she stepped out of the room and quickly bowed, saying, "General."
"Has Liuyin woken up?"
"Reporting to the general, the young lady inside has already woken up."
Hearing the knocking at the door, Liuyin remembered her main purpose.
"Why don't you come in?" Liu Yin asked, somewhat puzzled.
After spending time together, Liu Yin realized that Gu Li was not a very polite person.
He was the one who first kissed and hugged her in the carriage, but he was also the one who insisted on getting married before taking the next step.
Gu Li suddenly blushed a little, "Grandmother said that you can't just go into a girl's house without permission."
Last night, the old lady actually talked a lot with Gu Li, but he only heard about the arranged marriage and the parents' orders.
His parents had long since passed away, and Liuyin was an orphan. Now, his marriage should be arranged by his grandmother.
Judging from her grandmother's tone, Gu Limingbai must have agreed.
Therefore, Gu Li was unusually shy as she was about to meet her beloved.
Liu Yin opened the door with a gentle smile on her face. "I didn't know you listened to your grandmother so much."
Liu Yin was wearing a pink dress today, which complemented her skin tone perfectly, making her look like a delicate flower bud in spring, which made Gu Li stare at her.
Liuyin actually fits his childhood image of his wife very well.
When Gu Li's father was still alive, he was considered a playboy in the capital.
All I think about is where to go and have some fun with my friends, but I always end up making my family angry.
Back then, his father would beat him with a stick, but because he was the only child in the family, his grandmother and mother would always stop him.
Moreover, my father is not home most of the time.
At that time, his greatest wish was to have a beautiful wife in the future, as gentle as his mother.
But he had to be even more beautiful. He absolutely could not be inferior to his father, the young Gu Li thought resentfully.
Gu Li doesn't really care about family background; he just wants to marry someone he likes.
Actually, he didn't want to be a general.
But his father died in battle, and his mother was gone too. Only his grandmother and he were left at home.
As the only son in his family, Gu Li had to uphold the honor of the General's Mansion, so he was forced to grow up.
Having spent many years fighting on the front lines, Gu Li had long forgotten everything from his childhood.
After all, that was too far in the past, and it didn't fit with his current self.
But it wasn't until he saw Liu Yin that Gu Li realized he had never forgotten her.
However, the boy's dream was fleeting and elusive, while he grew up overnight and had long been accustomed to the days of fighting on the frontier.
Then I felt that I should forget about the past.
But in fact, he hadn't forgotten.
Over the years, many women have been sent to him, but Gu Li has never taken a liking to any of them.
But on his way back, he happened to run into Liuyin.
That frightened yet undeniably beautiful face, and that gentle, timid nature, perfectly matched his childhood imagination of his wife.
Gu Li was certain that it was her. Therefore, he took Liu Yin back to the General's Mansion without hesitation.
He also wanted to tell his grandmother about it.
In his letters over the years, his grandmother had always urged him to get married, hoping that he could leave her with a great-grandson.
After all, things can change in an instant on the battlefield, and even if Gu Li can win battles now, it cannot guarantee that he will win in the future.
The old lady was terrified, afraid that her grandson, like her son, would never come back.
At that time, she will truly be all alone in this vast general's mansion.
Gu Li understood the old lady's anxiety, but he was unwilling to get married so casually.
But now things are alright. Gu Li looked at Liu Yin, who was smiling gently at him. He had already brought his granddaughter-in-law back to his grandmother.
At this moment, Gu Li had no idea that his grandmother had not wanted him to marry Liu Yin.
After all, in the old lady's heart, no matter how good or beautiful Liu Yin was, she could not compare to Su Yan.
Naturally, one cannot overstep her position.
