Ga-----
A black Mercedes stopped at the gate of the courtyard.
Li Yun pushed open the car door and got out, picking up her bag and walking quickly inside.
There were two old men playing chess in the yard, and they didn't even look at him when they saw him come in. Li Yun knew that they were the bodyguards brought from Yanjing by the general. They were of high status and extraordinary strength. It was said that they could tell whether a person was dangerous just by the sound of his footsteps.
Li Yun walked to the door of the main room, reached out and pushed the door, and the door opened.
General Ling was sitting on the sofa in the living room, drinking tea and reading a novel with great interest.
Li Yun walked over to Jun Ling and sat down, filling his cup with tea. He smiled and asked, "What book is Jun Ling reading?"
"Zeng Guofan's 'Ice Mirror'." General Ling said with a smile: "Some people say that Zeng Guofan, a famous minister of the Qing Dynasty, had thirteen sets of knowledge, and only one set of 'Zeng Guofan's Family Letters' has been handed down. In fact, there are two sets handed down, and the other one is Zeng Guofan's knowledge of fortune-telling 'Ice Mirror'. I don't like family letters, and I don't read anyone's family letters. But I like 'Ice Mirror'."
The general closed the scroll in his hand and said, "Mr. Zeng has a special formula for physiognomy: Look at the eyes and nose to see whether one is evil or not, look at the lips to see whether one is true or false. Look at the spirit to see whether one is successful or not, and look at the spirit to see whether one is rich or not. Look at the fingers and nails to see whether one is determined, and look at the tendons of the feet to see whether one is troubled or not. If you want to see the logic, it's all in the language. Aunt, how about I help you to look at your face?"
Li Yun's mind raced as she pondered why General Ling had called her so late to ask her to come over. In the past, in order to show his respect for his aunt, he would personally visit her at her residence if there was anything he needed to discuss.
But today he changed his usual behavior, and the change was quite obvious.
Also, what does it mean that he wants to read his own fortune
Li Yun smiled and postponed, saying, "Jun Ling, please don't laugh at your aunt. Your aunt is old and ugly, and her fate is already determined. It's just a matter of guarding the shop and tidying up the house for your old general's family. What kind of fame and honor can you show? Those are things for you men."
The general smiled and said, "That's not necessarily true. Some people are noble because of their mothers, and some are noble because of their sons. Maybe Mrs. Li is noble because she has a good daughter. Who can tell clearly what will happen in life?"
Li Yun was shocked and asked anxiously, "Jun Ling, has Shang Xin caused any trouble?"
General Ling picked up the teacup and took a sip. After carefully savoring the fragrance of the finest white tea, he smiled and said, "Shangxin has been well-behaved since he was young. How could he get into trouble? Don't worry, auntie."
The general told Li Yun not to worry, but Li Yun became even more worried.
She looked at Jiang Junling carefully and asked, "Junling, although your fourth uncle is gone, this does not change the fact that we are still a family. I eat what the Jiang family eats, wear what the Jiang family wears, use what the Jiang family uses, and everything is given to me by the Jiang family - if there is anything, don't hide it, and be sure to tell me in time. Shangxin is too young, and she has experienced too many things during this period of time. Especially the death of her father -"
The fierce light in the general's eyes flashed away for a moment, and then he returned to his gentle and indifferent smile.
Li Yun seemed to have no idea what had happened. She said with a worried look on her face, "I'm really worried that the child will get sick if she continues like this. I thought of letting her go abroad to rest for a while----"
General Ling nodded and said, "Rest well. You should rest well. Let's go to France and stay there for two years. Of course, we can't do nothing. People in our general family are not lazy and idle. Let her study a major in France. She can help me do some things when she comes back in the future."
Li Yun nodded and said, "Thank you Junling. Only you, as a brother, are sincere and kind to her. I will arrange this matter and send her to France as soon as possible."
The general nodded, took a paper bag from the coffee table in front of him and handed it to him, saying, "There are a few photos in it. Feel free to look through them when you have nothing to do."
Li Yun took the paper bag and was about to open it to check when General Ling glanced over and said, "Aunt, it's getting late. You should go back and rest early."
Li Yun closed the bag and said, "Okay, I'll go back first. Junling should also go to bed early. Young people should not stay up too late."
Li Yun walked into the yard and saw the two old men still playing chess.
I could only see the hands moving, but I couldn't hear the sound of the pieces falling.
The autumn night is a little chilly, so I guess it won't have any effect on them.
Li Yun got into the car and opened the bag with the help of the light inside the car.
Inside the bag were several photos, showing Shang Xin lying in a man's arms.
When she turned to the last page and finally saw the man's face clearly, her face instantly turned as pale as paper.
She took a few deep breaths, suppressed the anger in her heart, took out her cell phone from her bag, dialed a number, and said in an extremely calm voice: "Shangxin, go home. I have something to talk to you about."
Li Yun started the car.
The car rumbled and rushed into the endless darkness.
Jiang Zhuliu came out from the inner room, looked at General Ling and said, "Young Master, can we just let this go?" General Ling looked at Jiang Zhuliu and asked with a smile, "Can we just let this go?"
Jiang Zhuliu pondered for a long time and said, "To be honest, I feel a little uncomfortable. I think any man who experiences something like this will probably feel the same as me-----"
"I can understand." Jiang Junling nodded. He stood up, patted Jiang Zhuliu on the shoulder, and said, "I am completely on your side in this matter."
"Thank you, young master." Jiang Zhuliu said with a smile.
"But, Zhuliu, although Shangxin is the woman of our Jiang family, she is now the daughter-in-law of your Jiang family. Some things always require you and your wife to communicate well. As a brother, I can't say too much in the middle, don't you think?"
Jiang Zhuliu nodded and said, "I understand. There will be less trouble this time."
The general walked towards the backyard and said, "Go back and rest early. I'm tired too."
"Goodbye, young master." Jiang Zhuliu said goodbye with a smile.
When Jiang Shangxin returned home, his mother Li Yun was sitting in the living room looking at reports.
The general walked up to Li Yun and sat down, and asked, "Did the general order you to talk to me on his behalf? I thought he would talk to me in person."
Li Yun put the report in her hand on the table, looked at Jiang Shangxin and asked: "Since you have anticipated such consequences, why did you do such a thing?"
"What have I done?" Jiang Shangxin asked back.
Li Yun frowned slightly and said, "Shang Xin, you are a married woman, Jiang Zhuliu's woman, and your marriage was approved by the old man of the Jiang family. Now you are lying in the arms of another man, where is the face of the Jiang family?"
Jiang Shangxin looked at Li Yun with red eyes and said, "Mom, you always ask me where the Jiang family's reputation is, what the old man would think if he knew, what would happen if the general had a prejudice against us - but have you ever thought about my feelings? They are the enemies who killed my father, and I still have to call them brother and husband - I did it, but I'm really tired. So tired, so tired, I just want to find someone to talk to. That's all - otherwise I'll go crazy."
Seeing her daughter crying bitterly, Li Yun's eyes also turned red.
She went forward and hugged her daughter, saying softly, "Shang Xin, I know you feel wronged. But forget about it since you said these words in front of me. I have asked Secretary Li to get you a visa to study in France. You can leave tomorrow."
"mom-----"
"That's what they meant." Li Yun said firmly, "That's what I meant, too."
"------"

When Fang Yan returned home, Lu Chaoge was sitting on the sofa in the living room reading a book. From the backyard came the sounds of Qin Ying and Fang Yingxiong hitting and shouting.
Since Fang Yingxiong and Fang Haohan came, Qin Ying's second spring of martial arts has been reawakened. When Qin Ying dueled with Fang Yan, he had almost no chance of winning. It was a repressive blow that made people feel desperate.
However, when he fought with Fang Yingxiong, although he lost more than he won, he was still very motivated. Whenever he had time, he would drag Fang Yingxiong to fight for a few rounds.
Lu Chaoge put down the fashion magazine in his hand, looked at Fang Yan who was walking over and asked, "Have you eaten?"
Fang Yan thought for a moment and said, "It seems like I haven't eaten yet."
Lu Chaoge quickly stood up and said, "I'll make you a bowl of noodles."
"No need." Fang Yan pressed Lu Chaoge's shoulders to prevent her from getting up, and said, "Have you taken a shower?"
Lu Chaoge's cheeks suddenly turned pink, and he said, "Why are you asking this?"
She recalled the embarrassing scene when Fang Yan suddenly rushed in from the balcony while she was lying on the ground unable to move.
Seeing Lu Chaoge's shy expression, Fang Yan realized that the question he asked might cause misunderstandings, so he quickly explained, "That's not what I meant - I just wanted to say that since you've already showered, you shouldn't smell like cooking oil. I'll just go make some noodles, you just sit down and read."
Lu Chaoge nodded, looked directly at the red mark on Fang Yan's neck, and asked, "What's wrong with your neck?"
"Neck?" Fang Yan reached out and touched it, but found nothing unusual.
He took out his cell phone from his pocket, turned on the selfie function, and immediately realized the seriousness of the problem----
When he was pulled into the bathroom by Jiang Shangxin, it seemed that Jiang Shangxin had indeed kissed his neck, so a red lip print was left right at the location of his Adam's apple.
"This----" Fang Yan tried to stay calm and said, "Maybe it was a mosquito bite. It's okay, I'll go upstairs and apply some floral water."
Lu Chaoge sighed softly, took out a wet wipe from the tissue box on the table, stood up and walked to Fang Yan.
She carefully wiped off the lip marks on Fang Yan's neck with a wet wipe and said, "If you have any social events outside, remember to check your appearance when you come back - otherwise, your future wife will misunderstand."
