Chapter 9: Take Back the Keys
General Shen stared at Zhao Yunjin, and then slowly approached her.
Zhao Yunjin couldn't move at all now. If General Shen wanted to do something, she wouldn't even have the strength to struggle.
Just when General Shen's lips were about to get close to Zhao Yunjin's lips, Zhao Yunjin suddenly turned his head to one side.
She was so frightened that she almost cried. She held back her tears and asked in a tearful voice, "General, what are you going to do?"
General Shen calmly moved his lips to her ear and asked softly: "In your opinion, should I be a hero who is sad about beauty, or Liu Xiahui who is still pregnant?"
"The general should naturally be Liu Xiahui, who is still pregnant. Ordinary women are not women in the eyes of the general. No, no, it should be said that there are no women in the eyes of the general, only family and country."
Zhao Yunjin really didn't know what she should do if the general came to force her. But in this situation, who could come to save her?
Just when Zhao Yunjin thought General Shen would take the next step, General Shen suddenly let Zhao Yunjin go.
"Yes, in your eyes, and in the eyes of everyone in the world, I can only have feelings for my family and my country, not my children." General Shen said, standing up from the bed.
He smiled and said: "I'm just kidding you, I'm scared. Don't worry, I won't do it next time."
After General Shen finished speaking, he tidied his clothes, opened the door and walked out.
After coming here for a while, Zhao Yunjin made sure that there was no movement outside. Then she got up from the bed and glanced at the ground. It was the thick book "Sun Tzu's Art of War" that almost made her lose her innocence. She picked up the book on the ground and really I wanted to throw it from the window.
If she hadn't been worried about hitting someone below, she would have thrown it down long ago.
Zhao Yunjin closed the door tightly and locked it, still a little worried.
She took a look at the room, and there was a sofa. It took a lot of effort to move the sofa to the door, block the door, and then lay down on the bed to sleep peacefully.
"General, I was wrong."
General Shen was sitting on the leather sofa in the living room, his face calm and silent, filling the air with a frightening smell.
Yun Gu knelt in front of General Shen, with a look of sadness on her face.
Seeing that the general didn't respond, Yungu continued: "I was wrong. I shouldn't have let Miss Zhao put chili pepper in the food. I shouldn't have let the general deal with Miss Zhao. I shouldn't have pinned my hopes on the general. I hope the general can see it." The purpose of Qing Zhao Yunjin’s visit to the General’s Mansion.”
After hearing this, General Shen stood up with a loud sound and said with a stern face: "It seems that you have not realized your mistake at all."
"General, I have been in the General's Mansion for more than ten years. Before Zhao Yunjin came here, I had never done anything to make you angry, and you never punished me. Over the past ten years, I have worked hard and never complained. The general's wishes, even if the general does not consider the face of his deceased wife, he should treat me kindly because I have taken care of the general for more than ten years and have worked hard without any credit.
In a few days, it will be the anniversary of my wife's death. I want to hold a puja for my wife to save her soul. I hope that my wife's spirit in heaven can bless the general with success, happiness and happiness." Yun Gu finished speaking and took the A bunch of keys were produced and handed over to General Shen.
"I am no longer qualified to take on the role of housekeeper in the General's Mansion. After finishing the ceremony for the late Madam, I will ask to leave the General and ask the General for permission." Yun Gu looked at General Shen as if she had made up her mind to leave. He kowtowed heavily.
With tears in her eyes, she looked at General Shen with a look of reluctance. She was waiting for General Shen to save her at this moment. After all, everything had become a habit in the past ten years.
Shen Congrong took the key in his hand and nodded: "That's fine, since you are determined to leave, I won't keep you here anymore. I agree to do what you can do. You can do what you want after the ceremony!"
When Yun Gu heard these words, it was like five thunders struck her head. Her whole body seemed to be split in two, and her body seemed to be stripped of silk and cocoon, disintegrating all her last dignity and hope.
Her body lost its support and suddenly collapsed to the ground.
Making such a decision was just to give the general a step down and give him a chance to save him, but he didn't even say a word to save him and just agreed to himself so easily.
No, no, no, the general must have lost face. He was just embarrassed to come forward to save himself, so he said this.
"General, general." Yungu immediately sat up on her knees, crawled in front of Shen Congrong, grabbed his collar and shouted.
"Are you really so cruel that you want to drive me away?" Yungu cried to General Shen.
Shen Congrong brushed Yun Gu's hand away and said seriously: "It's not that I want to drive you away, it's you who want to leave. Of course, if you don't want to leave, I won't force you to leave."
"General, I won't leave, I won't leave. The General's Mansion is my home. Staying with the General and serving the General is the happiest thing in my life. I won't go anywhere." Yun Gu immediately changed her words.
"General, there is a wedding happening in the mansion recently, and there are a lot of chores, so I'm going to get busy." Yun Gu immediately stood up, turned around and left, for fear that if she took a step slower, the general would change his mind.
After walking a few steps, she thought of something again, turned around and said to the general: "General, I'll keep the key!"
General Shen waved his hand towards Yun Gu, indicating her to step back: "There will be a wife in the general's mansion soon, so I'd better leave this key to my wife for safekeeping!"
Yun Gu's hand stretched out in the air froze immediately, a look of embarrassment flashed across her face, then she squeezed out a smile, turned around and left.
"Meow, meow..."
Zhao Yunjin paused and asked Suxiang next to her: "Did you hear anything?"
Suxiang also listened carefully, then followed the sound and found a cat under a tree. The cat was curled up next to the tree, looking very pitiful.
Suxiang quickly picked up the cat and said, "Miss, look, it's a cat."
Zhao Yunjin looked at the cat. It had white hair all over its body, with a little black dotted on its back, and two round, piercing eyes.
But now that cat was pitiful, weak and helpless, looking at Zhao Yunjin and meowing.
Zhao Yunjin reached out and stroked the cat's head. Its pitiful look was very heartbreaking.
"Miss, look, this cat is injured." Suxiang pointed to the kitten's paw and said.
Really, there was a deep wound on the kitten's paw, and blood was still flowing from the wound.
