Rebirth Of The General's Granddaughter

Chapter 44 Making Waves Again [1], Part 1

“We understand.” It sounded a lot louder and more energetic this time.

Zi You finally let out a bright, dazzling smile. She began her first day of teaching the female medical team.

When Mu YingRui and Wang Yiping discovered the true purpose behind the slaves, it was the day before the Mid-Autumn Festival.

Zi You and Old General Mu hid this matter very deeply. They weren’t afraid, but the team was newly formed. Whether it can be successful in the end, there were still many uncertain factors in the process. So Old General Mu, Mu YingYi, and Zi You wanted the females to become versed in medicine and martial arts before releasing the news.

Because of Old General Mu’s orders, Mu YingRui spent the night in the study. But that didn’t prevent him and Wang Yiping from entangling during the daytime.

Zi You was busy training female soldiers and teaching Shui YouLian the Indian dance. Mu YingRui was busy spreading his seed on Wang Yiping’s field.

This busyness lasted until the day of the Mid-Autumn Festival. The Festival was a traditional Chinese holiday, the biggest during springtime. It was guaranteed to be busy.

Although Wang Yiping was not in charge of festival matters, she was still busy due to the first household’s matters. Because she was busy, she neglected Mu YingRui. In fact, since they could not be together at night,* they were lingering with each other during the daytime. Many festival preparations were thrown to the heavens.

[*TL Note: This probably happened in the missing Chapter 41]

Even the gift for Wang Yiping’s maiden family, Duke Yingguo’s Manor, was not prepared.

At this time, Wang Yiping thought of the slaves Zi You bought. She wanted to pick four neat girls to give and show piety to her maiden family so she urged Mu YingRui.

Mu YingRui readily agreed. He said, “Go get the people from dimei [younger brother’s wife]. She is busy preparing the festival offerings. It’s not good if we bypass her. If she dares to refuse, I will discuss it with father. Don’t worry. I won’t let my darling suffer.”

With Mu YingRui’s support, Wang Yiping went filled with confidence to find Née Liu.

She told Née Liu, “Dimei, I was taking care of your older brother these days and did not prepare a gift for my maiden family. It’s about to be the Festival soon and I cannot return home empty-handed. How about this? Didn’t You’er bought a lot of slaves? I will pick four presentable maidservants and gift them to father.”

Née Liu immediately deeply frowned. She lightly replied, “If sister-in-law wants anything else in this household, I can make the decision. But those forty-nine slaves, I can’t do anything about. Father said he had a use for them. No one is allowed to touch them.”

Wang Yiping was immediately unhappy. Of course, she was unhappy not because she was angry. She put on an aggrieved expression, rubbed her eyes, and said with hidden bitterness, “I knew it was going to be like this. In this house, I’m a master in name, but I’m not even comparable to some slaves. In the capital, which family’s festival preparations are not done by the eldest daughter-in-law? Only the Great General’s household is an exception. And now buying forty-nine slaves, I can’t even get four. I...I...”

She turned and left in tears. No matter how Née Liu called her, she didn’t turn back.

Back in her courtyard, Wang Yiping was sad with grievances. She cried like pear blossoms in the rain. Mu YingRui was distressed. He hugged her in his arms.

When Wang Yiping stopped crying, Mu YingRui immediately went to find Old General Mu.
