Chapter 150 Jealousy
There was unconsciously a hint of reluctance in her eyes as she looked towards Xiao Mu.
Xiao Mu looked at Liu Yunniang's solemn eyes and his heart tightened slightly.
However, there was a secret joy in his heart. Yunniang was really worried about him.
He knew he couldn't hide it any longer, and he didn't want her to worry any more, so he took a deep breath and said slowly,
"Murong Jin said that in my previous life, I was surrounded by enemy troops on a battlefield in the northwest not long ago. In the end, I was ambushed by the enemy and shot to death by the Rongdi army. Later, the Rongdi launched a large-scale attack on Liangcheng in the northwest. According to her, countless people were killed and wounded. Even Liangcheng, Youcheng, Ganzhou, and Beichuan were occupied by the Rongdi because of this battle..."
Xiao Mu's tone was very sad. He really could not imagine that the now prosperous four major cities in the northwest would be trampled by the iron cavalry of the Rongdi army in the near future, with corpses everywhere.
Liu Yunniang opened her eyes wide, her face full of fear.
She was not an ignorant girl, so she naturally knew that when two countries were at war, there would be casualties.
However, if as Xiao Mu said, "he" died on the battlefield and the four cities in the northwest were occupied, then she could imagine what would happen to the local people even though Xiao Mu did not say it.
Massacre...
These two words have been circling in Liu Yunniang's mind.
"You will be fine, you will be fine, and Northwest will be fine..."
Liu Yunniang repeated this over and over again, and for the first time, the look she gave Xiao Mu revealed a look of dependence.
Xiao Mu sighed in his heart, he was wrong, he shouldn't have told Yunniang these.
He never wanted to make her worry about him.
He gently held Liu Yunniang's hand and said,
"Yunniang, don't worry. I was wrong and shouldn't have told you this. Although Murong Jin said so, the situation in this life may not be the same as in the last life. Moreover, you forgot that with the firearms you presented to His Majesty, how could our Great Wei's military strength be the same as in the last life? I will be more cautious and will not put myself in danger."
Liu Yunniang bit her lip.
"No, you have to tell me, don't hide it from me. I don't want to know everything from other people. If you really have me in your heart, you will definitely consider me in everything, unless you have never thought about any result with me."
She had to admit that she was not as indifferent as she usually acted.
She didn't want to marry Xiao Mu, but that didn't mean she had never thought about spending the rest of her life with him.
She didn't want to, didn't want anything to happen to him.
Liu Yunniang felt a pang in her heart and couldn't help but shed tears.
"Xiao Mu, you can't be in trouble. You can't."
Xiao Mu was already stunned by Liu Yunniang's words. Did Yunniang just say something that he understood?
She wants to have "results" with herself?
An indescribable joy and emotion surged in Xiao Mu's heart. He held Liu Yunniang's hand tightly, as if he was afraid that she would disappear.
"Yun Niang, you... do you really think so?"
His voice trembled slightly and his eyes were full of anticipation.
Liu Yunniang looked at Xiao Mu's excited expression and suddenly realized what she had just said. Her face flushed, but she still nodded firmly.
"Yes, I don't want anything to happen to you. If possible, I think we will stay together for the rest of our lives."
Her voice was soft but full of power.
Yes, Xiao Mu was right. Today, the military strength of Wei is vastly different from that of the "previous life", and Rongdi is really no match for them.
After hearing what Liu Yunniang said, Xiao Mu's heart was filled with happiness.
He gently held Liu Yunniang in his arms, feeling her warmth and breath, and gently wiped away the tears from Liu Yunniang's face.
"Yunniang, I will definitely protect myself well, for you and for our future."
He whispered in Liu Yunniang's ear.
"From now on, you have Xiaoxiao, and you also have me. When there is a chance, you will go to Liangcheng, and I will have family there. At that time, I will stay with you both."
Liu Yunniang was feeling touched when she suddenly heard him mention "family".
Isn’t he the only one in the Xiao family?
General Xiao and his wife are both gone, and his only sister is also said to be gone.
So who are his "family"?
Would he not...
She had never thought about whether he had concubines in the northwest before. Now, when Liu Yunniang heard him mention "family", she felt very uncomfortable.
Damn it, I was soft-hearted for a moment and let go, giving this bastard the opportunity.
It is said that there are military prostitutes in the army, or, as a general, he must have beautiful wives and concubines sent to him by his subordinates. Could it be that this man really has concubines or maids?
Liu Yunniang's face changed instantly, and an indescribable awkwardness and jealousy surged in her heart.
She gently pushed Xiao Mu away, her eyebrows raised, with deep questioning,
"Your family? Who are they? Didn't you say that you have been alone since General Xiao and his wife passed away? Then who are these "family members"? "
Xiao Mu looked at Liu Yunniang's jealous expression and felt that she was cute but also a little helpless.
He quickly explained: "Yunniang, don't misunderstand. The family I'm talking about is not what you think."
Liu Yunniang frowned.
"Oh, so who are the family you're talking about? Is there anyone else in the Northwest that I don't know about?"
Xiao Mu gently held Liu Yunniang's hand.
"Yun Niang, the family I'm talking about is the child left behind by my sister, my nephew, named Xiao Chen. That poor child just turned eight this year. He lost his mother when he was young, and his health has always been poor. I wanted to bring him with me to Beijing this time, but I was afraid that he couldn't stand the fatigue of the journey and would hurt his body, so I didn't bring him to Beijing."
After hearing Xiao Mu's explanation, Liu Yunniang's jealousy instantly turned into guilt.
Lost your mother at a young age?
It's a pity.
"What about his father?"
Liu Yunniang had no hidden intention in saying this, she was simply curious. Logically speaking, the child's father would not leave him alone, and why did the child have the surname Xiao?
But from what Xiao Mu said, it seemed like the child had been following him since childhood.
Xiao Mu's eyes darkened, and a frightening aura emanated from his body.
Liu Yunniang saw that he looked uneasy and felt a little worried.
She gently held Xiao Mu's hand and asked softly,
"Xiao Mu, what's wrong? Is there something hidden about the child's father?"
Xiao Mu was silent for a moment, took a deep breath, and said slowly,
"The child's father... died in battle. Later, my sister gave birth to the child alone. However, because of the child, her health was completely broken. She passed away when Chen'er was less than a year old. Since then, I have brought Chen'er with me and treated him as my own."
Liu Yunniang listened to Xiao Mu's story with sympathy in her heart.
"That child is so pitiful."
Xiao Mu nodded slightly, a hint of pity flashing in his eyes.
"Chen'er is very sensible, but he has a cold temper. Maybe it's because no one has been with him. In the future, if there is a chance, I would like Xiaoxiao to accompany him more. Maybe it can change him a little."
Liu Yunniang leaned gently on Xiao Mu's shoulder.
"We'll have a chance to meet again in the future..."
Xiao Mu felt warm in his heart and he hugged Liu Yunniang tightly.
"Yun Niang, it's great to have you."
