The General's Little Peasant Wife

Translator: Vesper

Mu Chen rubbed his eyebrows exhaustingly after Mu Xue left. At first, he had only wanted Mu Xue to live a simple and peaceful life, but he later realized that this was just his wish.

Mu Xue, who had forgotten those memories, had become worse. Now she only felt that everyone was unworthy of her, especially Ning Meng Yao.

She felt like Ning Meng Yao had stolen her things. Mu Chen was not sure whether to cry or laugh at this feeling. He also felt very sad.

“I am so sorry, brother.” Xiao Qi Tian spoke with guilt, seeing Mu Chen’s tired look.

Mu Chen shook his head. It had nothing to do with Xiao Qi Tian, he did not have to apologize.

“Xuan Xuan and I will leave tomorrow morning. Uncles, sorry to trouble you guys to look after Mu Xue.” Mu Chen was a little worried about what Mu Xue would do, recalling her gaze as she left earlier.

“Okay, do not worry, brother. You guys should be careful too. I will appoint someone to see you off tomorrow.” Xiao Qi Tian said hurriedly, naturally understanding Mu Chen’s concerns.

However, Mu Chen shook his head and refused.

“No need. If you ask someone to send us, then our departure will be too obvious.” 𝒇r𝙚𝙚𝓌𝙚𝑏𝗻𝑜𝘷𝗲𝘭.c૦𝑚

Xiao Qi Tian thought about it a while, then he thought what Mu Chen said was true too. So he stopped talking about sending them away.

The next morning Mu Chen and Situ Xuan left without notifying anyone.

The two of them rode off on their horses. After leaving not more than ten miles from the city, they encountered some people who were already waiting for them. One of them was Mu Xue who was still in confinement.

Xiao Qi Feng came out from behind and looked at the two. His eyes were calm, they could not guess what he was thinking.

“It is better for both of you to go back.”

Mu Chen looked at Xiao Qi Feng and sneered.

“As expected. Ah, you’ve really betrayed us.” Mu Chen did not look at Xiao Qi Feng for long, he turned to Mu Xue and spoke to her.

Mu Xue’s expression changed, but she quickly calmed down.

“You guys were not fair first. Don’t blame me for this.” It was all their fault, they did this to themselves.

Mu Chen laughed loudly, looking at My Xue’s attitude.

“Very well. If that is the case, I, Mu Chen, from now on will not have a sister like you. From today onwards, you walk your path, and I will walk mine. Our many years of relationship ends here.” Mu Chen took out the gift that his sister had given to him, and crushed it with his bare hand.

The thumb ring that he had treated as a treasure all this while, was crushed into powder.

Situ Xuan knew that Mu Chen must have felt really uncomfortable when she looked at his indifferent expression.

His blood sister had actually brought people to attack them.

Looking at the archers, Situ Xuan had no doubt that once they started to attack, those arrows would fly towards them within seconds.

Mu Xue looked at Mu Chen. Her body was a little stiff, while she was also trembling slightly. Her brother wanted to cut ties with her? This... how did this happen?

“Protect yourself.” Mu Chen ignored Mu Xue’s thunderstruck appearance and turned to look at Situ Xuan beside him and whispered.

“Don’t worry, I know what to do. Besides, we have already sent out the letter. I believe someone will come soon.” Situ Xuan was not afraid at all. She believed that as long as Mu Chen was still around, nothing would happen to them.

“True. Well, in that case, let’s go.” Mu Chen pulled out his sword that was wrapped around his waist. Situ Xuan also took out her weapon, a whip.

Xiao Qi Feng looked at Situ Xuan and sighed.

“Xuan Xuan, do you even want to go against me?” They were cousins, but they were actually going into battle against each other now.

Situ Xuan looked at Xiao Qi Feng with a dignified expression, but her eyes shined brightly.

“I am Mu Chen’s wife. I married him which means I will accompany him no matter what he does, and I will always help him.” Situ Xuan did not say much, but enough to let Xiao Qi Feng know her decision.

“Very well. In that case, I will just have to do whatever is necessary within my means to make you guys stay.” Xiao Qi Feng said immediately.

Mu Chen and his wife ignored the bows pointing at them. They raised the whip high up with their hands, and then whipped their horses hard.
