Mother Jiang spoke out her true feelings. She had sensed something was wrong just now at the dinner table, but had kept silent until now.

"Changed?"

Father Jiang looked at Mother Jiang with some surprise.

"Yes, my daughter seems to be different this time when she came back. Think about how she treated us since she married into the general's mansion, and how she treats us today."

Just now, Father Jiang had been immersed in the joy of family reunion and didn't pay attention to these things. Now, after Mother Jiang's reminder, thinking about what had happened in the past few days, he found that it seemed just as Mother Jiang said, Jiang Li had changed.

"Hey, Madam, don't say it, don't say it, my daughter seems to have changed!"

Father Jiang was so excited that he blew his beard and glared, then patted his thigh and agreed with what Mother Jiang said.

"Really? I noticed the changes in my daughter just now at the dinner table."

Father Jiang stroked his beard and analyzed to himself, "My daughter must have grown up after what happened these days, so she suddenly became so sensible and reminded us to take care of our health several times!"

Thinking of Jiang Li's instructions just now, Jiang's father looked relieved. The little girl has grown up and can care for people now!

Mother Jiang nodded, then realized what Father Jiang said and glared at him: "What do you mean she's suddenly so sensible? Li'er has been very sensible since she was a child, okay? Apart from the disagreement with us about marriage, when has she ever quarreled with us?"

Mother Jiang was dissatisfied with the words used by Father Jiang and defended her daughter.

Father Jiang smiled heartily and put his arms around Mother Jiang's shoulders. "Yes, yes, it was a slip of the tongue, a slip of the tongue! My daughter has always been very sensible. I don't know what kind of magic potion Zhou Qingyuan gave our daughter to make her do such a stupid thing!"

Father Jiang got angry when Zhou Qingyuan was mentioned, and the relief on his face instantly turned into anger! Mother Jiang sighed: "I hope Li'er can wake up soon."

At this point, Jiang's mother no longer expects the Zhou family to make any changes. Mrs. Zhou has been cunning for most of her life, and Jiang's mother doesn't think she will suddenly change her temperament.

And the second son of the Zhou family is also a scoundrel who spends his days in debauchery and having fun in brothels. This is no secret in Jiangnan.

In Jiang's mother's opinion, the only normal member of the Zhou family was Zhou Qingyuan, who had been on the march and fighting outside all year round. Unfortunately, he had someone else in his heart and had two children with his deceased wife.

There is already someone in her heart, so wouldn't it be pure suffering for Li'er to marry him?

Fortunately, Li'er has changed now. I hope she can wake up soon and leave from places that are not suitable for her.

"Don't worry, ma'am. Our daughter will definitely understand our good intentions." Father Jiang comforted.

Mother Jiang nodded and said, "By the way, Li'er said she will come over to eat with us tomorrow. I have to think carefully about what to cook for Li'er tomorrow!"

When this matter was mentioned, Jiang's mother instantly forgot her recent unhappiness and went to the kitchen excitedly to prepare the dishes.

"It's still a long time until tomorrow noon, why are you in such a hurry? Hey, Madam, wait for me!"

After Jiang's mother left, Jiang's father's hand instantly floated in the air. After he came to his senses, he hurriedly chased after her.

Father and Mother Jiang were in a good mood because of Jiang Li's arrival today, and even their steps became more brisk.

But Mrs. Zhou at the general's mansion was not in a very good mood.

At this time, Mrs. Zhou was sitting in the main seat in the main hall, stretching her neck and looking out the door.

"What a loser! He's so slow even when going to Jiang's house!"

Seeing the empty door, Mrs. Zhou cursed angrily and clenched her hands on the table into fists.

"Ma'am, don't worry. You should be back soon."

"I just asked her to go back to the Jiang Mansion to get some things, but she didn't come back after being gone for the entire afternoon. I even asked this lady to send someone to ask her to come back. She is really more of a hindrance than a help. I think I gave her face!"

Mrs. Zhou clenched the handkerchief in her hand into a ball. The more she thought about it, the angrier she became. Her face was full of anger and her words were merciless.

The "she" Mrs. Zhou was referring to was none other than Jiang Li.

Ever since Jiang Li married into the general's mansion, Madam Zhou has relied on her status as mother-in-law to order her around and treat her like a maid.

At the beginning, Jiang Li naturally couldn't stand Mrs. Zhou ordering her around, but in order to gain the approval of her mother-in-law, she had to swallow her anger. In the end, what she got in return was Mrs. Zhou becoming even more aggressive.

Mrs. Zhou has long been accustomed to bossing Jiang Li around. Now that Jiang Li has not returned yet, she has already thought about how to deal with her when she sees Jiang Li later!

"Hongqu, go see if that little loser has come back!"

Mrs. Zhou's patience had reached its limit, and she immediately ordered the maid to go out and see if Jiang Li was there.

"Yes, Madam, don't worry, I will go out and take a look."

After saying this, Hongqu quickened his pace, walked out of the main hall, and headed towards the gate of the general's mansion.

"Young Madam, we're here."

The driver who was driving back from Jiang's house jumped off the carriage and informed Jiang Li who was in the carriage.

Jiang Li nodded lightly, and did not rush to get off the carriage. She lifted the curtain and looked at the general's mansion in front of her.

Although Zhou Qingyuan was the General Zhenbei, the mansion he lived in was not as grand as imagined. It was said that Zhou Qingyuan would use his military salary to support refugees every year, and therefore he was deeply respected and loved by the people.

But Jiang Li, who married into the general's mansion, knew that life in the mansion was not as poor and difficult as outsiders said. On the contrary, they lived a very comfortable life.

I heard that Zhou Qingyuan’s annual military salary is not that much, and he also sets aside a portion of it every year to support refugees, so the amount sent to the General’s Mansion is not much. Where did Mrs. Zhou get the money to save up such a big box of jewelry, and where did Zhou Laoer get the money to live a life of luxury?

Jiang Li didn't believe that the General's Mansion only relied on the profit from the shop in the south of the city. It seemed that there was something wrong with the accounts of the General's Mansion. Perhaps this was a breakthrough to destroy the General's Mansion from within!

Jiang Li narrowed her eyes, and just as she was about to lower the curtain and stand up, a familiar figure ran out of the general's mansion, followed by an anxious voice at the door.

"Hey, the young mistress is finally back. Madam has been waiting for you. Come with me to the main hall!"

Hongqu, who had just jogged out, was holding onto the door of the mansion, breathlessly, and waved to Jiang Li.

Jiang Li's eyes darkened, she lowered the curtain, stood up and walked out of the sedan.

"What took you so long? Madam is getting anxious waiting!"

When Jiang Li walked in front of Hong Qu, the latter said something in a bad mood, and his words were full of accusations.

If Jiang Li hadn't been late in coming back, she wouldn't have had to make this trip. Her legs would have been broken from all the traveling!

Jiang Li ignored Hongqu and walked into the general's mansion.

Hongqu relied on the fact that she was the head maidservant beside Madam Zhou and often argued loudly with the original owner.

Jiang Li will deal with those who need to be dealt with sooner or later, but right now she has more important things to do.

That’s right, she went back to Jiang Mansion to see her parents with a mission given by Madam Zhou...
