The old general was obviously a little surprised. To him, Jin Suting hadn't mentioned her mother for many years. When he recalled her, he still looked longing. "Your mother was a very gentle woman."
"She is a very beautiful woman, and also a very smart woman. When I met her, I was not yet a general. She was the daughter of a wealthy family, and I was just a small-time scoundrel from Hanshan."
Jin Suting thought this was explosive. She had heard Helan Ruizhe talk about Hanshan, which seemed to be an anti-imperial organization, similar to the current Muhan Pavilion.
"What happened next?"
The old general also wanted to share. He looked at the tablet with deep affection in his eyes. "She is not a daughter of an official. Her parents are both businessmen in Jiangnan. They have a very large business and can be said to be the richest people in Jiangnan. When I met her, I was about to follow General Tang to fight in the northwest. I was already in my twenties, but she was still 28. When I returned from the victory, I didn't expect that she was still waiting for me."
"Because she wanted to marry me, she broke up with her family and followed me to Funing City."

"I lost my mind. The Lu family is a wealthy and powerful family. I wanted to strengthen my power, but I didn't expect to harm her..."
The old general was crying bitterly, pounding his crutch on the ground several times, and his eyes were full of red bloodshot.
"Do you think Daddy is useless?"
You can't say that. Even if it's useless, it can still make her feel safe. "Dad was able to raise me and not let me get hurt at all. It's already amazing."
