Chapter 145 The Cannon Fodder of the General's Mansion 8
145, The General's Cannon Fodder, the Real Daughter 8
Jin Xiuxiu said with a sad look in her eyes, “General, when I was in the countryside.
I heard a scholar passing by say that there is a golden house in books.
The girl named Liu Liu, her mother Lu made me dig wild vegetables since I was a child.
My parents have indeed hired a teacher to buy pens, ink, paper and inkstone for their daughter in the past fifteen years, and taught her to read and write.
These expenses must have been quite a lot in the past fifteen years. She must have read a lot of books.
She has been watching The Golden House for fifteen years.
But I am the general's biological daughter, and when I return home I have to see Lu's daughter hanging around in front of me.
It hurts, my friend. My heart feels so cold.
Although as the general's biological daughter, I can't be too bad.
But now I am old, my brain is getting duller, and it is too late to start.
There are many things to learn, and I need to read more books.
I think one thousand taels of gold is really not much."
Cheap dad, "…………"
He felt sorry for his daughter and wondered if he had made a mistake by leaving Lu's daughter in the general's mansion.
After hearing what Jin Xiuxiu said, my cheap mother said, "How can a wild girl like you compare with Liu Liu, who I have brought up since childhood?"
She said in a sharp voice, “Shut up, if you know you are stupid, you should behave yourself.
From now on, you just stay in the mansion obediently.
You are old enough to find a husband.
When the time comes, I will find you a marriage partner, and you just wait to get married."
One solution would be to marry this wild girl off as soon as possible, so that she wouldn't make trouble in the mansion all day long.
Cheap dad looked at cheap mom and said, "Just shut up and be quiet."
Haven't you noticed yet? Our own daughter has a very powerful mouth.
This child is born with a temper. How can she be obedient if you say that to her?
Jin Xiuxiu looked at her cheap mother in surprise, "Auntie, what did you say?
You are a human trafficker, right? You must be a human trafficker.
You brought me back so that I could get married.
Auntie, are you having a marriage proposal that you can't refuse?
The other party beats women, has a mistress, or has a concubine or something like that.
Auntie, you couldn't bear to let that girl named Liu Liu marry him and suffer, so you tricked me into coming to the general's mansion.
You said I was your biological daughter and tricked me into marrying her off?"
The cheap dad covered his head and said, "See, I told you this kid has a sharp tongue."
How many storybooks has this person read? Such a clichéd story comes out as soon as he opens his mouth.
The cheap mother screamed, "Auntie? Who are you calling auntie?"
I am the general's wife, how dare you call me auntie, how rude.
Jin Xiuxiu looked at her cheap mother speechlessly, "I just called you auntie and you didn't like it.
I just called you a different name, and you don’t like hearing it?
You are more difficult to serve than the masters in our country."
The cheap mother pointed at Jin Xiuxiu, her fingertips trembling, "You, you wild girl, ......"
Jin Xiuxiu, "Auntie, you are wrong.
The word "Auntie" is a very common term in our countryside and has no derogatory meaning.
But the word 'wild girl' is a bit rude."
Cheap Dad, "Shut up, both of you."
Jin Xiuxiu looked at her stepfather.
Cheap dad said kindly, "…………, your mother didn't mean that.
Kid, you think a lot.
But Dad still wants to keep you for a few more years.
You just returned home, how could your father bear to let you get married.
Dad will ask someone to give you the one thousand taels of gold you mentioned just now.
Come here, bring one thousand taels of gold."
The cheap lady wanted to say something, and said, "General, ......"
The cheap father stopped the cheap mother with a look.
"Xiu'er, you must have had a hard time on the road.
Dad will take you back to the yard to have a look.
Your mother has prepared your yard long ago and has been waiting for you to return home.
You go back and rest for a while, and then when it’s time to eat, the whole family will eat together.”
Jin Xiuxiu glanced at her adopted father and said, "General, I have something to say first.
My marriage needs my own approval.
I won't let that aunt make the decision.
I understand now that this lady has a lot of grievances against me, and I don’t trust her.”
The cheap father said dissatisfiedly, "That's your biological mother. How can she harm you?"
Jin Xiuxiu, "Everyone has their own unique faces. I'm not a worm in her stomach, so how do I know if she will hurt me?
As the old saying goes, one should always be on guard against others.
I am just a weak and pitiful little girl now, I have to be on guard."
Cheap dad waved his hand, "It's up to you. Your mother hasn't been in good condition these days.
Don’t blame her.”
Jin Xiuxiu nodded, "Okay. We'll go after we get the gold."
The cheap dad twitched his mouth, "…………, then wait a little longer."
……
My cheap father brought Jin Xiuxiu and the servants carried 2,100 taels of gold to the courtyard arranged by my cheap mother.
Looking at the dilapidated courtyard in front of me, it was obvious that no one had lived in it for a long time and it had fallen into disrepair.
Although it looked hastily renovated, it was cleaned very well.
But compared with the several exquisite courtyards I passed along the way, there is a big gap.
Jin Xiuxiu asked her cheap father, "Which courtyard does the girl named Liu Liu live in?"
Cheap Dad pointed to a yard with a good location and said, "That one."
It looks more exquisite than Jinxiuxiu's courtyard, and its area is more than twice as large.
Jin Xiuxiu looked at her cheap father in confusion, "Are you sure I'm your biological daughter?
Your general's mansion actually allowed the daughter of the man who harmed your own daughter to live in such a nice courtyard.
On the contrary, he arranged for his biological daughter to live in a yard with such a huge difference.
General, please don't blame me for thinking this way. It's really because of what your general's wife did that we can't help but think about it."
Cheap dad frowned, what the madam did was very strange.
I'd better make arrangements for this child first.
"Xiu'er, what do you want to do?"
Jin Xiuxiu, "I think so. Let's do this.
I live in Liuliu's yard and let her live in this yard.
There is no reason to let the daughter of a bad guy live better than the victim's own daughter."
Cheap Dad hesitated for a moment and said, "Can't we try another way?
In this case, what would Liu Liu think? "
Jin Xiuxiu waved her hand and said, "What does it have to do with me what the daughter of that bad guy Lu thinks?"
Cheap dad, "What if your mother has objections?"
There's no way. This daughter of mine is too troublesome and has a bad temper. I have to be more tolerant of her.
Arrange things first and find a quiet place to rest. My head hurts.
Jin Xiuxiu spread her hands and said, "That general's wife, her ideas seem to be different from many people.
How do I know what she will do? I know what the general's wife is thinking, but I don't understand.
General, you must be tired after working for so long. I am tired too, please hurry up.
You have good health due to your luxurious living, but I am very weak due to eating wild vegetables every day.
Let Liuliu move out and live here. I'm going to take a rest."
