General, Your Wife Is Requesting Your Return Home For Farming

Chapter 974 - 974: Retribution

Mei Ji was someone who knew her limits. She could not defeat the Saintess.

Promptly adopting the strategy to get out while the going was good, Mei Ji slipped away.

With the Saintess’s martial arts attainment, it was easy for her to catch up to Mei Ji.

The problem was that Cheng Qingxue’s life was on the line, and the Saintess had no time to spare. She could only let go of that annoying maidservant for the time being.

The Saintess used her internal energy to seal Cheng Qingxue’s major acupoint.

This could only temporarily suppress the Gu poison in Cheng Qingxue’s body, and no one could determine how long it would last.

Now, she had to bring Cheng Qingxue to the medicinal spring of the Holy Mountain to force out the poison and treat her injuries.

She picked Cheng Qingxue up.

As soon as she turned around, she met Xie Yunhe’s cold gaze.

“What do you want to do?” Xie Yunhe asked coldly.

The Holy Maiden said expressionlessly, “She’s my sister and is also of the Cheng family’s bloodline.”

The mention of the Cheng family’s bloodline made Xie Yunhe shut up completely.

Today’s farce not only made Cheng Lian suffer, but it also stabbed Xie Yunhe in the heart.

Whenever Xie Yunhe thought of Mei Ji’s words just now, he had the urge to kill.

The Saintess would not let him hurt Cheng Qingxue.

“Mother, let’s go!”

The Saintess carried Cheng Qingxue out of the reception hall.

Cheng Lian turned around and glanced at Xie Yunhe.

Until this moment, she was still looking forward to this man giving her a look to make peace.

Unfortunately, she only saw Xie Yunhe’s endless disgust and coldness.

In the carriage to the Holy Mountain, Cheng Lian said nothing.

The Holy Maiden did not ask if she was Xie Yunhe’s biological daughter.

She didn’t ask who the man was.

None of that mattered anymore.

As long as they were of the Cheng family’s bloodline, their status would not be shaken.

Their reputation… would naturally be damaged.

Recently, there had been too many things that had harmed her reputation, and it had gradually affected her status in the Holy Maiden Temple.

Some people who could easily be roped in had become unclear recently.

Thinking of this, the Saintess closed her eyes in frustration.

She was too concerned about Cheng Qingxue and was confused. She should have silenced the entire residence first.

No, it was useless even if she did.

The people in Cheng Sang’s courtyard would not listen to her.

She should have killed that maidservant!

It was useless to regret now.

Cheng Lian choked and looked at her eldest daughter. “Qingyao…”

The Saintess pressed her aching forehead. “Mother, don’t speak first. I want to some peace and quiet.”

On the other side, Mei Ji returned to the courtyard to share this piece of gossip with Su Xiaoxiao.

Su Xiaoxiao was shocked.

Was it so explosive?

Had Cheng Lian actually cuckolded Xie Yunhe?

Didn’t she love Xie Yunhe to death?

“More than ten years ago, the family head recovered for a while.”

Uncle Quan suddenly came over with a dustpan.

The two of them were shocked.

She looked back at him in a daze.

Was he going to gossip too?

Uncle Quan said, “Although I was no longer in the residence at that time, I heard some news from others. After Xie Yunhe returned to the family head’s side, he treated her meticulously and neglected Cheng Lian. I believe it was at that time that Cheng Lian became angry and frustrated. Coupled with her sadness and loneliness, she had a relationship with another man.”

Mei Ji gave Uncle Quan a thumbs up. “I couldn’t tell.”

“Who was the adulterer?” Su Xiaoxiao asked Mei Ji.

Mei Ji shook her head. “I only heard that. The Saintess wanted to kill me, so I slipped away.”

After a pause, she said mysteriously, “But I think that the Gu Master called

Uncle Han is very suspicious!”

“Well „

Su Xiaoxiao and Uncle Quan nodded in unison.

To be honest, Su Xiaoxiao was not interested in Cheng Lian’s adulterer.

However, it was quite satisfying to make Xie Yunhe suffer a huge setback.

For a long time to come, Xie Yunhe would have to live in humiliation at the top of the green cloud.

This was retribution.

Actually, compared to this, Su Xiaoxiao was more concerned about Cheng Sang’s attitude towards Xie Yunhe.

All along, in order not to agitate Cheng Sang, she had never told her about Xie Yunhe and Cheng Lian’s relationship.

Xie Yunhe and Cheng Lian thought that Cheng Sang had recovered and already knew everything, so they did not talk too much to her.

Other than the night at the villa when Cheng Sang had a stress reaction, her condition after that had been very stable.

Su Xiaoxiao felt that she could try to let Cheng Sang know more truths, remember more things, and get her to become desensitized to them one by one.

This could help Cheng Sang recover.

Unexpectedly, when Su Xiaoxiao went to the house to look for Cheng Sang, Cheng Sang had already taken the three little packrats to take an afternoon nap.

The big one and the three little ones were all lying on their backs, sleeping arrogantly.

Su Xiaoxiao smiled, covered them with a thin blanket, and left the house.

In the afternoon, Su Xiaoxiao and Mei Ji went to Changliu Lane.

Wei Xiyue was also taking a nap.

Mei Ji went to see Sir.

Wei Ting asked Su Xiaoxiao coldly, “You don’t have anything to do today. Why are you here?”

Su Xiaoxiao raised her eyebrows and said, “I’m just afraid that someone will be jealous. I came over to tell you first. I’m going to change the dressing for Su

Xuan and Su Li later.’

She couldn’t get over his jealousy.

The dignified General Wei had been reduced to a jealous husband. He was simply unreasonable.

Wei Ting wanted to accompany her, but he had an important mission with his brother later.

“I’ll pick you up tonight.” Wei Ting said. Su Xiaoxiao blinked. Was he suddenly romantic?

“Okay.”

Su Xiaoxiao didn’t refuse.

Su Li stayed at Su Xuan’s place.

Su Xiaoxiao went over to change his dressing first. He recovered really quickly and didn’t look like he had broken his ribs at all.

Su Xuan’s wound had also scabbed over.

“Eh? Your internal injuries…”

Su Xiaoxiao took his pulse again. “You’ve recovered?”

He had taken the Saintess’s whip for Su Li. Logically speaking, he should not have recovered so quickly.

Su Xiaoxiao thought for a moment. “It’s Wei Xu, right?”

Other than Wei Xu, she couldn’t think of anyone else.

Su Xiaoxiao sighed. “It’s over. I’ll treat Wei Qing first before treating you. Wei Xu’s internal injuries must have worsened, but the Snake Bone Flower only grew a flower bud. I wonder how many days it will take to bloom.” No one made Su Xuan’s identity clear, but they no longer hid it.

Su Xuan pursed his lips and remained silent.

Su Xiaoxiao stopped and no longer deliberately exaggerated Wei Xu’s injuries.

Princess Hui An and Mei Ji walked out. “Little sidekick, Mei Ji and I are going out to buy something.”

Su Xiaoxiao said to Mei Ji, “Protect Princess Hui An.”

Mei Ji patted her chest. “Don’t worry, don’t worry! Leave it to me!”

The two of them left happily.

Su Xiaoxiao looked at Princess Hui An as she left and suddenly remembered the story of the princess that Su Xuan had mentioned to her.

“The princess who married into a small barbarian clan from afar couldn’t stand the humiliation and jumped off the city tower. She died… I want to know if anyone covered her with clothes?”

Su Xuan paused and said, “Yes.”

“Did anyone bury her?”

“Yes.”

“Where was she buried?”

Su Xuan said quietly, “At the border, so she can see her hometown.”

Princess Hui An and Mei Ji went to buy osmanthus cake.

The osmanthus cake that Su Li bought the night before was also eaten by Princess Hui An in the morning. It was not too sweet and the fragrance of osmanthus was very strong. It was her favorite flavor.

Mei Ji liked it too.

The two of them walked back after buying.

She had only taken two steps when she was stopped by a man in his fifties.

“Your Highness?”

Princess Hui An froze.

That person quickly walked up to her and said in surprise, “It’s really Your Highness! Greetings, Your Highness!”

Behind him, all the guards knelt down and bowed loudly. “Greetings, Your Highness!”

The people on the streets were suddenly attracted by this scene.

Everyone looked at Princess Hui An.

Mei Ji asked, “Huahua, who is he?”

Princess Hui An said with a pale face, “My father’s minister… the Great Zhou… the minister of Honglu Temple..”
