The sky was clear and the birds were singing.
Outer courtyard of the hall
In the vast courtyard, all the servants, maids, and guards of the General's Estate were gathered. They whispered to each other, guessing what had happened. For a moment, it buzzed like bees.
The general's butler stood at the front. He was wearing a green robe with narrow sleeves and had an indifferent expression. Listening to the speculations of the people behind him, his expression remained unchanged. Although he was a little confused, as a servant, he needed to obey. If you talk too much, you'll only be asking for trouble.
"The general has arrived."
With the announcement, all the discussions were swallowed down.
The butler looked up and saw the general in a blue shirt, looking handsome. Behind him were Madam, Eldest Miss, Military Advisor Ruan, and Deputy General Lin. However, what made him look askance was that there was actually a little girl in the general's arms. Could it be that he had gathered the entire residence just for that girl?
"Butler, is everyone here?" Leng Peiyuan asked the butler, but his gaze was fixed on the little guy in his arms. However, she glanced at the servants indifferently and then retracted her gaze.
"Reporting to the general, other than the madams of the Hidden Concubine Pavilion, the rest are all here.”The butler lowered his head and replied respectfully.
"Hidden Beauty Pavilion?" Leng Wanwan raised her head." She's your concubine.”Her eyes flickered. She remembered that those concubines were also accomplices in bullying the mother and daughter. This debt could not be ignored.
"Yes." Leng Peiyuan smiled, but he did not forget to knock her little head. "Call me daddy."
"Humph." Leng Wanwan snorted lightly." Father, don't forget that you promised me that I would make the decisions in the residence.”
"How would I dare to forget?" Leng Peiyuan smiled bitterly. How was this his daughter? She was simply a little ancestor.
The butler and the others widened their eyes in shock when they saw Leng Peiyuan and Leng Wanwan's attitude. Were they seeing things? The usually cold and arrogant general was actually so gentle to the little girl in his arms. However, calling the general 'daddy' meant that her little girl was also the general's child? Who could it be? After thinking for a while, he suddenly remembered that a concubine had given birth to a child for the general three years ago. Could it be this doll?
The servants below also remembered Leng Wanwan's identity. Some of the people who had bullied her were so scared that their faces turned pale. Even Leng Yue 'er's personal maid Qiu Tang almost fainted. Heavens, who could tell her why this little girl was so favored now? He looked at Leng Yue 'er with a puzzled gaze, only to see his Young Miss glaring fiercely at Leng Wanwan who was in the general's arms. Her heart sank even more. Even Miss and Madam had lost their power? Then what should she do?
"Everyone, listen up." Leng Peiyuan looked coldly at the servants." This is your Miss Wan Wan. From now on, she will be in charge of all matters in the residence, no matter how big or small.”
As soon as he finished speaking, the crowd quietly broke into a commotion.
"It can't be. What does such a small child know?”
"General, are you joking?"
“……”
"Is there anyone who is not convinced?" When Leng Wanwan heard the discussions below, the corners of her mouth curled up. She seemed to be smiling but not smiling. However, she had a sense of dignity that actually made the people discussing stop. He suddenly thought of the rumors a few days ago about Third Miss knowing demonic spells. They were so scared that they did not dare to breathe loudly. Heavens, how could they forget that Third Miss was no longer the weak and timid doll from before?
"Very good." Seeing that the situation had calmed down, Leng Wanwan nodded in satisfaction. "Butler." she called.
"This servant is here." The butler respectfully waited at the side.
"Those who don't obey the master's orders, what are the rules of the manor?”He asked lazily.
"If it's light, you'll be punished with twenty strikes. If it's serious, you'll be punished with fifty to a hundred strikes and expelled from the government.”The butler replied calmly.
Leng Wanwan's expression did not change, but she was thinking of such a light punishment in her heart. One had to know that if one of their underlings made a mistake and did not listen to the orders of their superiors, they would either cut off their fingers or pick out their tendons. The punishment was simply tickling them.
"Listen up." She raised her head and glared coldly at the servants." From today onwards, I am the boss of the General's Estate. "No matter who dares to disobey me, this is the outcome." She waved her small hand at the tree beside her. With a boom, a huge fire burned all the leaves of the big tree.
Everyone was silent and frightened.
Leng Peiyuan looked at Leng Wanwan with a strange expression. He must have found the culprit who destroyed the forest he loved. However, he couldn't blame her. Was this little girl really his daughter? The more he looked, the more confused he became. A three-year-old child who was calm, arrogant, and disdainful of everything could actually use magic?
Ruan Yiying and Lin Chengqi's expressions froze as well. This Third Miss was too strange. She was full of secrets. They hoped that she had no ill intentions towards the General Manor. Otherwise, she would definitely be a difficult person to deal with.
Mu Zhaoyun and her daughter were stunned at first, then their eyes were filled with schadenfreude. Previously, the general thought that they were causing trouble. Now that she had revealed her demonic magic, he wanted to see if the general would still think that they were causing trouble.
"Ah, demonic techniques."
It was unknown who was the first to shout, but the crowd ignored Leng Peiyuan and started whispering again. There was nothing they could do about it. The shock that this Miss Wan Wan had given them was far greater than their fear of the general.
Hearing the crowd's discussion, Mu Zhaoyun and her daughter smiled smugly.
"Quiet." Although the butler was also surprised, his expression was calm. No matter what, it was wrong for servants to discuss their masters 'right and wrong. It seemed that these people had to be properly disciplined. He raised his arms." Where did this demonic technique come from? Miss Wan Wan was clearly a little fairy, so she naturally knew immortal techniques.”He was lying through his teeth.
Fairy? Everyone naturally did not believe it. Aren't fairies all gentle and cute? No matter how he looked at it, Miss Wan Wan's expression did not seem to be that of a fairy. However, no matter how much he thought about it, he didn't dare to act recklessly. He cleverly said,
"Third Miss is a fairy."
"Third Miss is the reincarnation of a fairy."
“……”
"You've become a fairy." Leng Peiyuan looked at Leng Wanwan who was in his arms, only to see her purse her lips. She seemed to be very disgusted by this form of address. He raised his eyebrows in puzzlement. How could he have thought that Leng Wanwan had always considered herself a demoness? Fairy? Hmph, she was disdainful.
Mu Zhaoyun and her daughter widened their eyes in disbelief. How could this be? How did she turn from a demoness to a fairy? The veins on their tightly clenched fingers popped out. They glared at Leng Wanwan unwillingly. Why did this cheap girl always escape?
"You can leave." Leng Wanwan waved her hand. She didn't care if they said one thing or meant another. Anyway, she was the boss of the General's Estate. If they dared to disobey her, they would be courting death.
"Butler, you stay."
"Yes." The butler stood at the side and did not dare to neglect this little master at all.
"In a while, bring some men and tear down Hidden Concubine Pavilion.”She said coldly. She did not forget that the nanny had said that the concubines were also accomplices in bullying Xiaolian and her daughter. Since he wanted to take revenge, he would start with them.
" Ah, this..." The butler raised his head and looked at the general awkwardly. The one who lived in the Hidden Concubine Pavilion was the general's concubine, and also his master.
" Wan Wan, they are…" Leng Peiyuan looked at Leng Wan Wan awkwardly, which was rare. What should he say? They are your father's women.
"Isn't she your mistress?" Leng Wanwan waved her hand. "If you need to relieve your physical desires, I'll help you pick out more beautiful women. I guarantee that you'll be satisfied. In short, none of the original concubines could be kept.”
"Pfft-"
Leng Wanwan's bold words made Ruan Yiying burst out laughing. Lin Chengqi could not help but raise his eyebrows.
Mu Zhaoyun and her daughter were even more flabbergasted. This, this, this, was this girl even a girl? He actually said such shameless words. Their expressions were full of disdain. They were indeed the sons of the cheap maid.
Leng Peiyuan glared at Ruan Yiying before turning back to Leng Wanwan awkwardly.""Wanwan, you're still young and a girl. How can you say such bold words?”
"Did I say anything wrong?" Leng Wanwan raised her eyebrows." They are your concubines. Besides, I am the boss of the General's Estate now. If I want to demolish the Hidden Concubine Pavilion, I will demolish it."”He turned around and looked at the stunned butler, then waved his hand.
"Get someone to dismantle it later. If they're not convinced, let them come and find me themselves.”
"Yes." The butler nodded. He found it funny and felt a little sympathetic for the general. He must be the first father who was told by his daughter to chase away his mistress and to help him choose another wife.
" Also-" Leng Wanwan looked at Mu Zhaoyun and her daughter with ill intentions until they couldn't help but shiver.
"Halve the General's wife and Eldest Young Miss 'monthly salary.”I told you to harm Mother Xiaolian, and I told you to be harsh on my belongings.
"No, what right do you have?" Mu Zhaoyun screamed. "I'm the General's wife, and I'm also a princess. What right do you have to deduct my monthly salary?”
"Princess?" Leng Wanwan snorted coldly." Could it be that Furen has never read the story of a married man following his husband in 'Female Virtues'? You're already a member of the General's Estate, what princess are you talking about?”
" I, I…" Mu Zhaoyun was speechless from the question, and his eyes turned towards Leng Peiran. "General, are you going to let this little girl do whatever she wants?”
"Right now, I am the most powerful person in the residence. It is useless even if you beg Father.”Leng Wanwan sneered and patted Leng Peiyuan with her small hand." Father, Nanny should be awake by now. I want to see her."”
"Alright then." Leng Peiyuan nodded helplessly, then carried her away in his sedan chair.
Ruan Yiying and Lin Chengqi trailed behind them, looking sympathetically at Mu Zhaoyun and her daughter who were so angry that they had lost their temper. They had failed to meet Leng Wanwan, this strange little devil. However, looking at the general's figure, they were not the only ones who had fallen. He really didn't dare to imagine that the cold and arrogant General had actually become a slave to his daughter.
