Chapter 47 Yue Yin, why did you become so mean?
Xie Shian slammed the table and laughed heartily: "You said Wen Rulei wanted to become your disciple, but where is he?! He didn't even show up, but instead asked a little girl like you to show up for him. Is this his determination?! Don't you come here to trick Old Man Li!"
Wen Xingluo took a sip of tea silently.
"Old man Li," her fourth brother really dared to call him that.
General Li glared at Xie Shian unhappily, then turned to Wen Yueyin sternly, "Since I've already drunk Shian's apprenticeship tea, it's not appropriate for me to accept another apprenticeship gift. Besides, I don't think Master Wen is sincere in wanting to become your disciple. Miss Wen, please go back!"
Wen Yueyin stood there awkwardly.
How could this happen?
General Li, how can you accept someone as your disciple?
Then how could her third brother still be a general and deputy commander of the Jinwu Guard?!
When she marries the prince in the future, how will he arrange for the Jinwu Guards to serve as a guard of honor to help her shine?
Seeing the maid asking her to leave, she had no choice but to leave in despair.
General Li will start teaching Xie Shian from today. Since his leg injury has not healed yet, he decides to start teaching him military tactics.
Xie Shian held onto his cane and waved pitifully at Wen Xingluo, "I'm afraid I won't be home until tonight. You and grandma must wait for me for dinner."
Wen Xingluo nodded.
She walked out of Li's house and saw Wen Yueyin still lingering at the gate.
Their eyes met.
Wen Yueyin questioned: "You are also reborn, right?!"
"What rebirth?" Wen Xingluo pretended to be confused.
"In the previous life, it was clearly Third Brother who worshipped General Li as his master! You hold a grudge against us, so you deliberately snatched away the opportunity that belonged to Third Brother, right?! You want to destroy us!"
Wen Xingluo sneered calmly.
What does "the opportunity that originally belonged to the third brother" mean?
That was clearly an opportunity she had snatched for Wen Rulei.
In this life, Wen Rulei simply returned to where he was supposed to be.
She tilted her head innocently: "Sister, are you sick? Why do you keep talking nonsense? What's this about rebirth, what's this about fate? I really don't understand."
Wen Yueyin breathed rapidly: "You——"
Wen Xingluo refused to admit it, and she had no way to deal with her.
"Grandmother is still waiting for me in the house. Please excuse me for leaving first." Wen Xingluo nodded politely and helped Cuicui get on the carriage while holding her hand.
She lifted a corner of the curtain.
Wen Yueyin was so angry that she threw the box of pastries, her pretty face full of anger.
Wen Rulei happened to be passing by.
He dismounted, reached out and touched Wen Yueyin's head, and said to her with a smile, "Hey, who made our little Yueyue angry? Tell Third Brother, and he will teach her a lesson for you!"
Wen Yueyin dodged his hand and said in a disjointed tone, "It's all your fault!"
Wen Rulei's expression changed.
Wen Yueyin pointed at the gate of the Li Mansion, feeling very disappointed. "Xie Shi'an has already become General Li's disciple! He will achieve great things and become famous in the future. Did you know that he stole your opportunity?!"
"Yue Yin, what are you talking about? I don't understand." Wen Rulei was confused. "It's his business to become a disciple. What does it have to do with me? Not to mention that General Li didn't intend to take me as his disciple, I don't plan to join the army myself."
Wen Yueyin was trembling all over.
That’s not the case…
It was not like this in the previous life!
She looked at Wen Rulei with a complicated expression, not understanding why, in this life, her high-spirited and energetic third brother seemed like a completely different person.
In her previous life, her father and brothers were powerful and loved her deeply. She didn't have to do anything, she just had to act coquettishly, and all kinds of good things would come to her like water.
Even if she wanted the position of Crown Princess, they would snatch it from Wen Xingluo and give it to her.
How come she has to spend her time planning and scheming for her father and brother in this new life?
Are they all giant babies waiting to be fed?!
She gritted her teeth and spoke in a shrill voice, "You're not good at studying. What else can you do if you don't join the army?! When others compliment you on your ability to do both civil and military work, do you really take it?! You don't even look at your grades. You're giving away such a good opportunity. You'll definitely regret it in the future!"
Wen Rulei couldn't believe it: "Yue Yin, you weren't like this before! How did you become so mean?!"
"Is telling the truth considered harsh?!" Wen Yueyin was embarrassed and angry. "If you were more motivated, why would I nag you?! I don't care. Go see General Li right now and tell him you want to be his disciple and learn the Li family's spearmanship!"
She pulled Wen Rulei's hand, but was pushed away harshly.
Wen Rulei said disappointedly, "Do you know how hard life in the military camp is?! I'm staying well at home, with food, drinks, and fun. Why do you insist on making me suffer in the military camp?! Yue Yin, I really don't understand you now!"
Without waiting for Wen Yueyin to persuade him again, he climbed onto his horse with a sullen face and disappeared down the long street in a flash.
Wen Xingluo silently lowered the curtains.
A person's life seems to have endless opportunities, but in reality, there are only a few turning points that can truly change their destiny.
Once you make the wrong choice, you may have to work a thousand times harder to make up for it, or you may never be able to make up for it.
In this life, Wen Rulei lost the noble man who guided him, and he was destined to no longer be as brilliant as in his previous life.
The carriage drove out slowly.
Wen Yueyin was left squatting dejectedly on the ground.
She held her head.
It’s all because of Wen Xingluo.
If she hadn't saved Xie Shian, perhaps General Li would have fallen in love with her third brother in this life.
That's all.
Even if her third brother is useless, she still has her father and her eldest and second brothers.
There won't be any trouble between the three of them, right?
Wen Yueyin pondered carefully, and when she saw a woman on the street carrying a basket of rice dumplings, she suddenly remembered that in the summer after the Dragon Boat Festival in her previous life, Shu County was hit by continuous heavy rain and floods.
My father offered a good plan for flood control and was promoted by the prefect Du to be the chief clerk, in charge of documents and involved in confidential matters. Later, he was recommended to the emperor by the prefect Du.
In other words, in a few months, she would be able to jump from being the daughter of a county magistrate to the daughter of a chief clerk.
Thinking of this, Wen Yueyin's heart calmed down a little.
When she saw the children scrambling to eat the cakes on the ground, another idea popped into her mind.
She remembered that after the flood in her previous life, the people in Shu County were in dire straits, food prices soared, and many people starved to death.
If she reminded her second brother to stock up on food in advance...
Wouldn't that make a lot of money?
Maybe my second brother will become the richest man in Shu County this year!
By then, she would be able to wear silk and satin, gold and silver jewelry, and as the daughter of the chief clerk, she would be able to attend banquets at the homes of high-ranking officials in Shu County in a grand manner and completely establish her own reputation.
Wen Yueyin swept away her previous discouragement and immediately got up and ran straight home.
…
Wen Xingluo returned to the Zhenbei Palace and ran into Nanny Chen as soon as he stepped into Wansong Courtyard.
Nanny Chen bowed and said with a smile, "Young lady, are you back? The farm just sent over a few baskets of freshly picked rice dumplings leaves. The Dowager Consort instructed the kitchen to make a few plates of rice dumplings tonight for you to try."
Wen Xingluo said softly, "Then I'm in for a treat."
The spring breeze brings the fragrance of rice dumplings, and summer is coming.
Wen Xingluo walked through the corridor, and the summer of his previous life flashed through his mind.
This year, there was a flood in Shu County.
