The General's Little Peasant Wife

Translator: Vesper

Qiao Tian Chang greeted Mei Ruo Lin, then carried his son and walked out.

Mei Ruo Lin looked suspiciously, then she asked with doubt, “Why do I feel that he’s trying to escape?” Was she so terrifying that he had to react as such?

Ning Meng Yao couldn’t help laughing, and explained, “Sister Mei, you misunderstood him. He was going to take Little Monkey to play at the mountains. I too wanted to go but he was thinking of excuses to make me stay, and then you came in on time.”

Mei Ruo Lin nodded, “Ah, you’re really bad. You are pregnant, not with one but two in your belly. You should be careful, don’t be a hassle.”

Ning Meng Yao looked at Mei Ruo Lin in a daze, why was this so familiar?

“Sister Mei, where’s brother-in-law? Is he not accompanying you?”

“Your brother-in-law has gone to settle Mu Chen’s affairs.”

Ning Meng Yao sighed, “If I had known that this would happen, I wouldn’t have let Mu Chen and Situ Xuan go.”

Mei Ruo Lin looked at Ning Meng Yao funnyly and said helplessly, “Yah, who would have expected this? But this is actually good for Mu Chen to see what kind of person Mu Xue really is. So it is good for him.”

Ning Meng Yao wanted to refute, but she nodded and agreed after thinking for a while. It was indeed a good thing.

Mu Chen had always been concerned about Mu Xue. After this time, perhaps he would be completely disappointed with Mu Xue, right? 𝐟r𝒆ℯ𝘄𝑒𝒃𝚗𝒐𝘃e𝗹.c𝘰𝐦

As for the reason why they chose not to leave even when they could, Ning Meng Yao did not want to give it too much thought.

In Qi Tian’s Residence, Mu Xue felt that her status was more stable after giving birth to her son. There were some changes in the way people treated her, she was like the head mother of a large family. However, because of such a change, even Xiao Qi Tian felt a bit uncomfortable as Mu Xue’s actions had started to become much more unreasonable. She was gentle and kind in the past. But after giving birth to the child, she would severely punish the servants even for tiny little mistakes. 𝑓𝐫𝑒e𝒘𝚎𝘣𝚗𝘰𝘷𝐞𝑙.co𝑚

Xiao Qi Tian looked at the child in his arms who had now grown pale and tender. Although he was not as clever as Shang’er, and he often cried very noisily, Xiao Qi Tian still liked his son very much.

“Qi Tian, â??â??I want to go out for a walk.” Mu Xue, who was bored staying in the room for such a long time, said to Xiao Qi Tian.

“You have to wait until after the child has seen a full moon. That’s what the Nanny said. And you must not blow dry your hair during the child’s first month, otherwise it will be bad for your health.” This kind of conversation had already taken place several times these past few days.

Mu Xue looked at Xiao Qi Tian’s attitude, and became angry immediately, “Qi Tian, â??â??you’re so boring. Who said that?”

“Xue’er, don’t be a hassle.” Xiao Qi Tian frowned. How was he boring when all he did was care about her health?

Mu Xue was stunned upon being scolded by Xiao Qi Tian. She began to cry, “You think I’m useless now that I’ve delivered the child, right?” He was gentle to her when she was pregnant. But now he did not listen to what she wanted at all, and then when he made her anxious, he would just ignore her. This made her very uncomfortable.

Xiao Qi Tian took a deep breath and spoke to Mu Xue, “Why the heck are you making a scene for? If you behave well during your confinement until the moon is seen, it will be good for your health. And you are the child’s mother, why do you think you are useless?”

Xiao Qi Tian really felt a little disturbed by Mu Xue’s unreasonable behavior during this time.

She was acting like this often, which irritated him a lot. He just could not understand how a person could change so much.

“I don’t want to listen to you. All you think about is the child. He is more important to you now. If I had known this, I wouldn’t have even given birth to this child.” Xiao Qi Tian’s face immediately changed after Mu Xue uttered those words.

He carried the child who was sleeping soundly in his arms to his granny and said, “Please bring the Young Master downstairs.”

“Yes, Your Royal Highness.”

Xiao Qi Tian waved his hand, asking everyone else to get out. After everyone left, Xiao Qi Tian looked at Mu Xue and said very seriously, “Just say it. What the heck do you want to do? Do you want to see Emperor Brother?”

Mu Xue was startled, a trace of confusion could be seen in her eyes, she quickly shook her head, “I don’t know what you are talking about.”

Xiao Qi Tian sneered, “You let him in last time, didn’t you? So that he could look for your brother. They are under house arrest now. Do you really think I didn’t know about this?”

Mu Xue immediately looked up at Xiao Qi Tian, seemingly not expecting him to know about it.

“You... You...”
