Chapter 2 Centennial Warrior (1)

kitchen.

Mrs. Li looked towards the door from time to time wearing an apron, her anxiety could not be concealed.

"Aunt Li, the food is a bit cold, should we reheat it? In case Madam is hungry, we can eat in time."

"Liniang, I heard that Madam's family is rich, and the dowry that Madam brought here is worth a lot. I think Madam must be well-clothed and well-fed when Madam is at home, but look at the meals we prepared."

Liniang looked at the meal prepared by Mrs. Li, white porridge and vegetables: "Madam is married to the general, so she is naturally one with the general. Although the meal we prepared is simple, judging from the current situation in our mansion, it is not bad. I think Madam can understand."

"I can only hope so. After all, with our current situation, we can only serve her with porridge and side dishes. If it takes a little longer, it will be difficult to support even eating black facial masks." Mrs. Li thought of something, looked at Liniang His eyes widened a little: "Li Niang, do you think it is possible... Madam took out the dowry..."

"Aunt Li!" Liniang stopped Granny Li from continuing to speak, and was about to say something when she spotted a piece of dress flying by the kitchen door with sharp eyes. She hurried out, but she didn't find anyone outside the kitchen.

Let's talk about Su Jian.

After Su Jian accepted the status quo, she took a thorough look at the room she was in.Red walls and black tiles are mud houses.Looking at the furnishings in the house, except for a bed made of semi-new mahogany, which is barely passable, the tables and chairs in the house look dilapidated and cheap.Thinking about how a general lived in such a dilapidated house, she really felt a little unbelievable, so that she wondered if the general was dissatisfied with her and didn't like her as a bride, so she specially arranged this room for her.

"But probably not. Judging from the memory of the original owner, this general has a very good reputation, and the people around him praise him a lot. Besides, although he is a general, he does not actually have the real power of a general. After all, I have never heard of it. The general can still be hereditary, although his grandparents have made great achievements in military affairs, but his grandfather died early, and his parents did nothing and died early. When he comes here... I think the inside must not be as good as the outside." Therefore, the family is not very good, it seems It can be explained.

"Dengdengdeng..."

Rapid footsteps sounded.

Su Jian restrained her thoughts, and when she looked at the door, she saw Ei Huang rushing in in a panic, with no food in her hands, she paused slightly: "Why are you in such a hurry?"

"Miss, we were really deceived. The general just left you alone. Now even the mother-in-law in the mansion is calculating your dowry. Miss, let's run away." Goose Huang finished speaking, his face was full of panic, and tears were suppressed. Can't stop falling down.

Su Jian was taken aback for a moment: "Thinking about my dowry?"

"Yes, the servants heard it with their own ears, there is no falsehood."

Su Jian snorted coldly, her face darkened.Although she is not the original owner, she has occupied the original owner's body anyway. If someone bullies others like this, she will naturally not bear it: "What are you crying for? If you want to cry, you should let those who want to occupy my dowry cry."

"Miss..." Goose Huang was taken aback, forgot to cry, she just stared blankly at Su Jian, her young lady is so tough.She thought her young lady would be the same as before, and they cried together.

Su Jian's slender fingers tapped on the table, and when she looked at Ehuang, she noticed Ehuang's look at her, which seemed to be admiration and doubt, and her heart froze. Could it be that her reaction aroused Eise Huang's suspicion?
But... she really couldn't pretend to be so delicate and weak like the original owner who was crying and crying when things happened.After a brief silence, she explained: "Yu Huang, your young lady is already married, in other words, I have grown up. Now that I have grown up, my past temperament and temperament must be restrained, and I should learn how Taking on the role of mistress, crying and crying won't solve anything."

Goose Huang nodded, feeling that what Su Jian said was very reasonable, she wiped away her tears: "Miss said yes, slaves don't cry anymore."

Seeing that Ehuang really stopped crying and did not doubt her words, Su Jian made up her mind: "Please tell me again about the calculation of my dowry in the house."

"Yes."

After a while, Su Jian learned what had happened from Goose Yellow's mouth, and she became concerned. Seeing Goose Yellow's face, she was even more worried, and she said, "Let's go for a walk."

Goose Huang stood still, under a worried expression, he hesitated to speak.

"how?"

"Miss, let's not go out."

"..." It's impossible to go out. Is it possible to calculate the dowry and think about hurting their master and servant?
"My servant thinks this is really not a good place." After Anhuang finished speaking, seeing Su Jian looking at her all the time, he simply explained what she had heard in detail: "Although this servant has not been here for a long time, I have also inquired about some news. This mansion There is no one in charge in the mansion. In fact, none of the people in the mansion are servants who have signed death contracts. under control."

Su Jian's eyes flickered, are all the people in the mansion relatives of soldiers' widows?
That's understandable why a majestic general's mansion is so dilapidated.A general with no actual achievements but only a title of general does not even have a real servant in the mansion, and there are only people who need to be taken care of. These expenses must be quite a lot.

"Miss, I also heard that next door to our mansion, there are several villas who are disabled soldiers who have retired. These disabled soldiers must have never seen anything good. If they want to plan our dowry, we I'm afraid we won't be able to escape. Miss, let's go home as soon as possible before we start a fight." Ehuang continued to advise.

Su Jian could feel Huang's anxiety, and knew that this girl was really thinking about her.But it is impossible for her to go home. After all, she is only facing Anhuang, and she may not be able to guarantee that she will not be suspected, let alone go home: "Even if you want to leave, you must leave in a fair manner. Please be safe and don't be impatient." , I will be able to return home in three days, there is no rush."

"But Miss..."

"Okay, your lady, I have my own ideas." Su Jian interrupted Ehuang's words, stood up and patted Ehuang's shoulder, and finally couldn't bear to see Eel Huang's disheartened face, and said in a voice of relief: "Soldiers defend their homes and defend the country , She Xiaojia for everyone, without them we would not have the peace we have today. If what you just said is true, then don’t worry too much if it is true. With them, we should be safe. As for the dowry... I want to come They won't take it, it's a misunderstanding." Unless the dowry was ordered by General Zhan Zhan.But if he ordered it, then even if they wanted to protect the dowry, they would not be able to protect it.

"But the maidservant heard it with her own ears."

"I believe you, but..."

"Madam Gao Yi, Liniang admires her."

The sudden sound made Su Jian withdraw her thoughts, and when she looked at the door, she saw a middle-aged woman in coarse linen kneeling down to her.
