Quick Wear: The Enchanting Concubine, Rules of Survival and Plunder

Chapter 134 General's Concubine 8

When the old lady and Jiang Chunxi were preparing to have dinner, Yue Zhen walked in from outside.

Jiang Chunxi quickly stood up and saluted Yue Zhen: "I greet the general."

"Get up!" Yue Zhen's eyes did not stay beside Jiang Chunxi, but came to sit next to the old lady, "Grandma, how do you feel now? Are you feeling better?"

"I'm much better now," the old lady said. "By the way, you probably haven't had dinner yet since you came here! Then have dinner with grandma."

Since the old lady said so, Yue Zhen naturally would not refuse, even though he really had no appetite.

Yue Zhen wanted to stay for dinner, so Jiang Chunxi naturally couldn't sit down and eat with him.

It was one thing that the old lady doted on her, and when Yue Zhen was not around, she could sit down and dine with the old lady. But if Yue Zhen was around, it would be an overreach for her, a concubine, to sit down and dine with the old lady.

After all, Yue Zhen and the old lady are different, and she, a concubine, has no weight in Yue Zhen's heart.

Jiang Chunxi picked up the serving chopsticks and prepared to serve the old lady.

"What are you doing, kid?" the old lady said to Jiang Chunxi. "Hurry up and sit down to eat with me. I don't need you to serve me. There are so many maids and servants here. Why do I need you to do this?"

"But..." Jiang Chunxi looked at Yue Zhen, as if seeking Yue Zhen's opinion.

Yue Zhen frowned.

In his heart, he did not agree with Aunt Jiang sitting down to eat with him. After all, she was a concubine, how could she sit down and eat with her master?

In ancient times, the status of a concubine was really no different from that of a slave, especially a concubine like Jiang Chunxi who was promoted from a slave. So although Jiang Chunxi was a concubine, in Yue Zhen's heart she was no different from a slave.

"Why are you looking at him?" The old lady looked at her grandson dissatisfiedly, "Why, do you have any objection to me asking Aunt Jiang to sit down and have a meal with me?"

"Grandson dare not," Yue Zhen said hurriedly, then looked at Jiang Chunxi and said, "Since the old lady has asked you to sit down and eat together, then sit down!"

Forget it, since grandma had said so, he couldn't refute her, for fear of making her unhappy.

"Yes." Jiang Chunxi respectfully supported Yue Zhen and then sat down.

Don't talk while eating, don't talk while sleeping. When Yue Zhen is not around, Jiang Chunxi is not so well-behaved. She always makes the old lady happy while eating, so that the old lady can have a better appetite and eat more.

Jiang Chunxi did this during this period, which made the old lady's appetite much better. But now that Yue Zhen is here, Jiang Chunxi has to be very well-behaved and dares not speak at the dinner table.

All in all, the three of them had no appetite for the meal. The old lady was used to Jiang Chunxi's chattering at the table to make her happy, which made her appetite improve unconsciously. So when she saw Jiang Chunxi eating silently and not daring to speak, the old lady naturally had no appetite.

However, she also knew that the reason why her grandson was there was that Chunxi was very reserved. She probably didn't even dare to breathe while eating, so she didn't say anything, such as asking Jiang Chunxi why she didn't speak and acted like a mute.

As for Yue Zhen, he had no appetite to begin with, so the food he ate had no taste.

Jiang Chunxi was just pretending. After all, the old lady and Yue Zhen both looked like they had no appetite, so she had to pretend!

So what? Why did this annoying guy Yue Zhen come over during dinner time and prevent her from having a meal?

After finishing dinner, the three of them rinsed their mouths with tea, and then the old lady spoke: "Grandmother is planning to move Aunt Jiang to a new courtyard. The courtyard Aunt Jiang lives in now is too remote. We generals have many empty courtyards to live in. There is really no need for Aunt Jiang to live in such a remote small courtyard."

The old lady was secretly mocking Liu Yaozhu, saying that Liu Yaozhu deliberately sent Jiang Chunxi to such a remote courtyard and that she was very jealous.

Then the old lady became very annoyed. Wasn’t it her grandson who brought up Liu Yaozhu’s jealous character?

So what's the point of her secretly trying to flatter Liu Yaozhu?

"It's up to grandma." Yue Zhen had no objection.

Of course, the eye drops that the old lady put on Liu Yaozhu were of no use. Just as the old lady thought, Liu Yaozhu's jealousy was caused by Yue Zhen, so he naturally didn't think there was anything wrong with Liu Yaozhu arranging Jiang Chunxi to live in such a remote courtyard.

The old lady was so angry when she saw her grandson: "I have Aunt Jiang to accompany me. If you have official business, then go and do it!"

"Then I will take my leave now and come to see grandma tomorrow." Yue Zhen stood up, bowed to the old lady and left.

"Huh!" After watching Yue Zhen leave, Jiang Chunxi breathed a sigh of relief. "Although I have become the general's concubine, whenever I see the general, I always dare not even breathe."

"You kid," the old lady shook her head helplessly, "You said you are so afraid of the general, then how can you make the general care about you? Now that the young lady has been driven out of the manor, this is the best opportunity for you. You must take advantage of this time to pay more attention to the general and try your best to occupy a place in the general's heart."

"Forget it!" Jiang Chunxi shook her head quickly. "I get so nervous when I see the general. Besides, the general only has the young lady in his heart. I'd better not go and make myself unhappy."

"Besides, my main mission is to have a child. It doesn't matter if the general favors me or not. I have the old lady to favor me anyway," Jiang Chunxi said as she took the old lady's arm and leaned her head on her shoulder affectionately. "So the old lady must favor me more and don't let me fall out of favor. Otherwise, if even the old lady doesn't favor me, then I will be too pitiful."

"You are so smooth-talking," the old lady was amused by Jiang Chunxi's words, "Don't worry! You are so sensible, I can't help but spoil you. If you can get pregnant with a child as soon as possible, I will spoil you even more."

The old lady was not lying to Jiang Chunxi. She had always liked Jiang Chunxi. If Jiang Chunxi could get pregnant, she would not only pamper her even more, but would even worship her as a bodhisattva.

"Don't worry, old lady!" Jiang Chunxi said with a smile, "I will definitely try my best to get pregnant as soon as possible so that you can have a grandson."

"Okay, okay, then I'll wait to hold my grandson." The old lady was even happier.

In the following time, Jiang Chunxi still came to accompany the old lady every day.

As for Yue Zhen...

Yue Zhen went to her room quite often during this period. After all, he also hoped that Jiang Chunxi could get pregnant as soon as possible.

It's just a pity! Jiang Chunxi doesn't want to get pregnant at this time.

Soon the border was in crisis. That night, Yue Zhen did not come out of the palace until late at night.
