After dinner, Ruan Yumu saw the old lady off and then hurried to find Qi Jingxuan.
"Come here! You're using my identity as you please. Quickly break the spell on me. Once I find a way to break it, I'll tear you to pieces!" Ruan Yumu stormed off to Qi Jingxuan's study.
"Madam, the General is busy."
Get your filthy hands off me and get out!
"My wife, please don't say such harsh words. It's disheartening to hear. What's wrong? You can't even stand living under my identity for one day? I'm quite content. I have no intention of switching back." Qi Jingxuan continued painting with his head down, not even raising his head once.
"So it was you who did this. What exactly are you trying to do?"
"Speaking of which, haha, Xu Yunchuan, you're staying at Yunxiang Tower tonight. I'll tell you all about it tonight. Let's go!" Qi Jingxuan said, grabbing Ruan Yumu's hand and dragging her all the way from the study to Yunxiang Tower.
"Let go, be gentle."
"You beast, let me go!"
······
"Everyone out!" Upon hearing Qi Jingxuan's angry roar, the servants wisely left, leaving only Zi Ling, who had just returned with steamed buns to give to Ruan Yu Mu, looking completely bewildered.
"Miss Ziling, please go back. The general is coming and he wants us all to leave."
"Oh? Is that so? That's wonderful, our concubine has finally seen the light at the end of the tunnel." Zi Ling suddenly smiled. She had heard that Ruan Yu Mu had been forced to kneel in the ancestral hall for a whole day and hadn't eaten anything. She had even secretly hidden a steamed bun for her.
Qi Jingxuan threw Ruan Yumu onto the bed and started taking off his clothes. "Qi Jingxuan, are you crazy? How could you do this to me? Don't forget that my body is yours."
"Yes, this is my body, I can do whatever I want with it. What are you doing? You think you can beat me? Heh. How ridiculous." Qi Jingxuan grabbed Ruan Yumu's hands with one hand, leaned down and kissed her. Ruan Yumu refused to give in and bit Qi Jingxuan's lips until they bled. Qi Jingxuan was furious when he saw this, so he unbuckled his belt, tied her up, and slapped Ruan Yumu across the face.
"Ruan Yumu, I never imagined you hated me so much. I worked so hard in the army for this family, but all I got in return was your heartlessness and ingratitude."
“Call me Qi Jingxuan. If you still address me like that in public, people will say that you are insane and talking nonsense because you are jealous of the general’s upcoming marriage to his wife. It’s not impossible that your loving mother might sell you off. You’d better be careful.”
"Qi Jingxuan, you!"
"That's a good boy. You just stay here in the backyard and see what kind of life I used to live, and see how unfilial and unreasonable I was. If you dare to do anything wrong, I can kill you right now." After saying that, Qi Jingxuan raised his hand again, but when he saw the slap mark on Ruan Yumu's face, he stopped and took off Ruan Yumu's clothes.
"Ah ...
"The general has not returned to his residence for many days. Isn't he too heartless? The noise from Yunxiang Tower can be heard all the way to the front yard."
"Yes, Green Spirit, why didn't the general come to you first? It seems that the concubine is ultimately more important."
As the rumors among the maids in the mansion grew increasingly outrageous, the old lady also received the news.
"It's alright. Men will do what they say. I'll prepare contraceptive soup for that little slut. I don't want her to give birth to a son or daughter to claim a share of the family fortune."
"Yes, Madam." Granny Yun quickly instructed the servants to prepare.
The next morning, the general left early to inspect the military camp.
When Ruan Yumu woke up, he felt sore all over and his body felt like it wasn't his own anymore. "You beast, how could you do this to your own body?"
"Madam, please drink your medicine."
"I won't drink any medicine."
"Pour it down my throat." Granny Yun ordered the two maids beside her to quickly step forward, hold Ruan Yumu's head down, and try to force the medicine down her throat. "How could a lowly woman like you be worthy of giving birth to the general's child? Don't even think about it without the old lady's permission."
Ruan Yu struggled with all her might, and the bowl of medicine that was being fed to her mouth was knocked over by her struggle.
"Bai Ling, go and brew some more." Granny Yun instructed Bai Ling, who was beside her.
It turns out that Ruan Yumu didn't want to drink the contraceptive soup; I had misunderstood her. It must be this scoundrel who was using my mother's name to make a scene.
"You lowly slave, what are you doing here in Mother's name?" Taking advantage of Yun Mama's inattention, Ruan Yu Mu grabbed a vase beside her and smashed it at her. It hit Yun Mama squarely on the head, and blood instantly streamed down her forehead.
"Granny Yun!" Seeing this, Lan Ling quickly helped Granny Yun up from the ground and took out her handkerchief to cover Granny Yun's head.
"You wretch, let me inform the old lady and see how she deals with you! You've really gone too far! I've served the old lady my whole life, and everyone in the mansion respects me. How could I allow a wretch like you to climb over me like that? Ouch!" Lan Ling helped Granny Yun to her feet and headed towards the old lady's Qingyu Hall.
Zi Ling saw this scene as soon as she brought her wash water in the morning. She thought to herself that things had gotten so big, and since the general had stayed here last night, she should hurry up and go find Xu Yunchuan to inform the general.
"General, there is urgent business at the manor. Please return immediately."
At this moment, Qi Jingxuan was practicing boxing in the military camp. The west of the city was not too far from the Qi residence. But what was the matter that was so urgent? Suddenly, a thought flashed through his mind. Every time he and the general had slept together, the old lady would always have Granny Yun bring him contraceptive soup. What was going on? He could tolerate it when he was in the Qi residence, but now the general couldn't tolerate it in the backyard? Thinking of this, Qi Jingxuan immediately rode back to the Qi residence.
