Chapter 103

Ch 103: Stop Squeezing Me!

Seeing the young masters vying to ride in the same carriage with Madam, Manager Li smiled broadly.

The Husband’s Sister, who came out later, accompanied by the maids Cai Chan and Qing Liu, personally witnessed Xing Ge’er also being affectionate towards Yuan Xueyue! Even though Guo Lianglian was motionless under her veil hat, facing this direction, one could see the suppressed emotions all over her.

“Madam, Young Masters, please choose quickly and get on the carriage, or you’ll miss the fireworks display,” Manager Li said with a conciliatory smile.

Yuan Xueyue was silent for a moment.

She looked back at Song Ge’er, who looked hesitant, not daring to actively compete for the chance to ride in the same carriage with her.

Tonight was different.

Yuan Xueyue lowered her gaze to the two young masters in front of her, especially Xing Ge’er! Yuan Xueyue said, “Xing Ge’er, keep your paternal aunt company tonight, after all, she is your mother.”

Ultimately, she still felt a pang of compassion! As long as Xing Ge’er followed Guo Lianglian, tonight would be a quiet and peaceful one.

However, Xing Ge’er held Yuan Xueyue’s hand tightly and refused, “No! Your son doesn’t want to be with any paternal aunt! Your son only has one mother!”

Ji Ge’er also clamored, “Your son wants to follow Mother too!”

Yuan Xueyue, “……”

A few steps away, Guo Lianglian watched this scene, her hands in her sleeves constantly clenching, her fingers almost digging into her palms! “Xing Ge’er, be good, go with your mother, tonight I and Ji Ge’er…”

Before Yuan Xueyue could finish, Xing Ge’er suddenly knelt down! Xing Ge’er said, “Mother! Ever since Guo Ziji and Guo Zisong were adopted under your name, your eyes are no longer just on your son alone!”

“Your son is jealous! Very jealous! Your son just wants to stay with Mother, is that so difficult?”

“Clearly, I was your first son!”

With that, tears welled up in Xing Ge’er’s eyes!

This scene shocked Guo Lianglian even more, causing her to bite her lip tightly!

Damn Yuan Xueyue!

She actually made Xing Ge’er cry! Therefore, Guo Lianglian took two steps forward and said, “Xueyue, just let Xing Ge’er have his way, I, it’s okay.”

Guo Lianglian showed a yielding attitude for the first time.

Yuan Xueyue frowned, did she know what she was saying?

“It’s better for Xing Ge’er to accompany you, after all, the grace of a birth mother, you’ve finally returned, Xing Ge’er hasn’t even gotten close to you,” Yuan Xueyue said.

If Xing Ge’er rides with you, then revealing the matter of your return to the residence can be put aside.

Yuan Xueyue still didn’t want Xing Ge’er to fall into that situation of being pointed at by everyone!

After all, in this life, Xing Ge’er was different, repeatedly and eagerly calling her Mother! And his birth mother was right beside him, watching with heartache, yet unable to touch him.

But Guo Lianglian shook her head, “Forget it, you ride together, I’ll follow behind, being able to see Xing Ge’er from afar is enough.”

Guo Lianglian’s words did not elicit Xing Ge’er’s goodwill, instead, he refused to even glance at Guo Lianglian! Xing Ge’er continued to hold Yuan Xueyue’s hand and said,

“Mother! Let your son accompany you, okay?”

Yuan Xueyue hesitated again and again, the huge stone in her heart sinking heavily.

“Okay, we’ll go sit, Ji Ge’er and Song Ge’er can sit in the back, Mother will accompany you next time.” After Yuan Xueyue finished speaking, she took Xing Ge’er’s hand and walked towards the front carriage.

Ji Ge’er, “……”

Hmph! What’s so great!

Song Ge’er watched silently, not asking for anything, being able to go out of the residence to see the sleight of hand and performances was already a great happiness.

Guo Lianglian’s heart tightened even more! Xing Ge’er… Xing Ge’er……

She hurried to occupy the middle carriage, leaving Ji Ge’er and Song Ge’er to go to the carriage at the back.

All three carriages had carriage drivers to accompany them, as well as servants following.

Manager Li instructed the servants, “Slowly, the road is not clear at night, don’t jolt the masters.”

◈◈◈

The servants nodded.

They set off, and at the same time, the Second Son from Guo Liangxian’s Second Uncle’s family also came along!

Tonight’s fireworks display, sleight of hand, were endless! It would continue until the New Year!

On the first night, everyone was very excited and wanted to see, all crowding out! The commoners were accompanying the performers nearby, crowding and walking step by step, inevitably some trampling occurred, but it was not a pity.

For the nobles and dignitaries, they were either in designated places, wine houses, restaurants, and the like, with the second and third floors being the best viewing positions, because these performers would pass by here and perform in the central open space! If they were noticed by some lord, they might have the opportunity to be registered, and next time they might go to the residence to perform! The silver for inviting them to perform was not small, but the nobles could definitely afford it!

And on the viewing platform, there were also many open spaces, separated by a bank, where the carriages and horses of various nobles were parked! When Yuan Xueyue arrived, the place was already packed! The carriage driver said helplessly, “Madam, we can’t go in, there are too many people here, and the front is also full.”

“Okay, let’s get off here.” Yuan Xueyue held Xing Ge’er’s hand, giving him the warmth of her small hand.

Perhaps only tonight, she could still accompany him for a while.

Yuan Xueyue lowered her gaze and smiled at him, her face as bright as a flower.

Xing Ge’er was stunned.

As a firecracker exploded on the other side of the bank, Mother’s face was also reflected in his eyes.

Xing Ge’er was so excited that he threw himself into Yuan Xueyue’s arms and hugged her tightly! He only reached Yuan Xueyue’s arm, but his hands could just wrap around her.

Yuan Xueyue smiled and stroked his head.

The loving scene between the two in front caused Guo Lianglian in the back to grit her teeth!

Ji Ge’er and Song Ge’er, accompanied by servants, also squeezed into a careful viewing position on the bank.

Across the bank, various kinds of sleight of hand also appeared in the river!

The men and women dressed around them were all of extraordinary bearing, obviously well-known, and they were all modest and polite.

Under the dim night light, boats drifting in the river appeared, with people standing on them performing sleight of hand!

Xing Ge’er was very happy, his eyes reflecting the fiery scene, with Mother by his side, it would be good to be so at ease forever.

But he didn’t know that Guo Lianglian behind him was starting to have problems.

“Ouch! Stop squeezing me!”

“You squeezed me first!”

“Which family are you from? Do you understand the rules?”

With a loud slap!

Because Guo Lianglian was wearing a veil hat, one person needed to occupy the space of three people, otherwise the other people would touch her veil hat!

Her nose would be uncomfortable, so it became crowded! Seeing the person next to her make a move, Cai Chan said, “Can you be quiet? If you touch our Paternal Aunt, can you bear the responsibility?”

Another family also had a young lady wearing a veil hat appear, several people wearing veils would cause a little chaos.

However, Guo Lianglian was the most cautious, fearing that others would accidentally remove her veil hat!

“Covering up! Watching a sleight of hand, who has time to see what you look like! Let this Young Master take a look!”

A rogue reached out and pulled off Guo Lianglian’s veil hat.

Guo Lianglian came out, already in a bad mood, and being publicly removed from her veil hat, she was furious, and she also learned from the young lady over there and slapped the man!

The man was shocked and angry, and at a glance, he could see that Guo Lianglian was not a maiden from a noble family, her eyebrows were full of wrinkles, without the air of freshness and beauty!

The man was not convinced and was about to make a move too!

Yuan Xueyue, the overlooked illegitimate daughter of a Prefect, was bartered into marriage with Guo Liangxian, a rising soldier she barely knew. Her father, eager to gain favor, used her as a stepping stone, introducing the ambitious young man to Prince Xian. Five years later, Guo Liangxian returned a decorated General, his name echoing with newfound glory – and with a mistress on his arm. Reborn into that fateful moment, Yuan Xueyue refuses to repeat her past. She remembers all too well the years of silent suffering, the constant neglect, and the final, agonizing year spent bedridden, ignored by her husband and scorned by his family. She remembers dying a broken woman, a victim of their ambition and indifference. She will no longer be the dutiful wife, silently enduring humiliation and raising a disloyal nephew while her husband flaunts his affections for another. Let the General have his victory, his honor, and his concubine! She will arrange a lavish ceremony, a final act of defiance before severing ties with the treacherous Guo family. This time, she will not interfere with her adopted nephew's wild spirit, nor will she waste her energy battling the favored concubine. Let them have their chaos. She, the House Master, is quitting! She'll embrace a life free from their drama, quietly filing for divorce and leaving the General's Residence to crumble under its own weight. But fate, it seems, has other plans. As Yuan Xueyue orchestrates her escape, the General, finally realizing the value of what he's lost, embarks on a desperate pursuit, only to find the door to her heart firmly closed. And Prince Xian, observing the unfolding drama with keen interest, whispers, "Luckily, you let go, or this Prince would never have found such a wonderful wife." This time, Yuan Xueyue will write her own destiny, far from the gilded cage of the General's Residence and into the arms of a man who truly sees her worth.
