Chapter 1027: Chapter 233: Achieving a Good Marriage_4

Su Xue’s heart was immersed in sweetness when she suddenly heard those words, and her face instantly changed, turning pale, "General? Why? I... I don’t ask for much, just to be able to serve the General is enough for me! I..."

I’m a woman too, how can I accept you! Pei Qin secretly rolled her eyes at heaven, wondering why she couldn’t have been born in a different role? To have a few delicate wives and beautiful concubines would make life so wonderful!

Seeing her momentarily out of it, Su Xue’s face turned even paler, and she understood, "General... do you have someone in your heart?"

"Yes, yes! I have someone in my heart!" Pei Qin nodded in acknowledgment.

"I won’t take her place, I just hope to be able to stay by your side, that’s enough." Su Xue lowered her head.

"It won’t work! My partner is extremely jealous! You..." Pei Qin hadn’t finished speaking.

Su Xue suddenly looked up, her eyes tearful as she stared at her, "Now probably the whole world knows I belong to the General, if I can’t stay with you, I... I only have death left."

Pei Qin saw she wasn’t joking, and her face changed, "It’s because not many know about it yet, and I can’t accept you, that’s why I’m asking you to leave. If you really don’t want to leave, then stay as you wish!" Finishing her sentence, she turned back to her camp, somewhat impatiently. Threatening with death over every little thing, is there something wrong with her brain?

Su Xue knew she had angered her, wiped her tears but felt relieved. Ultimately, she was willing to take her on; she allowed her to stay.

Xiao Yong followed up, "General! Are you really planning to keep that Jun Su Xue?"

"She keeps crying and threatening death, what would you have me do?" Pei Qin glanced at him, continuing to inspect the grenades and munitions.

Xiao Yong frowned, "That doesn’t mean you should just take her in!" Seeing Pei Qin didn’t reply, he muttered discontentedly, "Bringing her home is just asking for trouble! Wendong saved Xie Yi, Sister Qin took in Jun Su Xue, and if we pick up another one day, our home could put on a drama! No! Adding Dan Mingzhu, it’s already enough for a drama!"

Pei Qin didn’t have time to worry about these matters, awaiting the Imperial Court’s commands and preparing to support Mo Heng in Liaodong. She needed more munitions, especially grenades. Mortars were suitable for long-range combat, but grenades were suited for city combat, and it would be best to make a batch of handguns, the real weapon for close quarters combat.

Regarding the amazing handguns, the soldiers below were extremely curious, and several Deputy Generals had inquired more than once. The Leader of the Rebellious Army, Pei Hanyuan, and that Deputy General’s deaths were shocking. Just a point from her, a bang, and both men had a bullet hole in their heads, dead in an instant.

Pei Qin said they would only be able to produce them later, for now, they should familiarize themselves with the use and manufacture of mortars and grenades.

Seeing it was almost noon, Jun Su Xue came over with a food container, "General! It’s time to eat!"

The busy soldiers all held back teasing smiles, "General, take a rest and eat first! You can get back to work after your meal!" saying this, they gradually left.

Jun Su Xue set out four dishes and a soup on the small low table, "The General is sensitive to cold, perhaps it’s the lingering toxin, this mutton soup should warm you up."

Pei Qin looked at her, washed her hands and came over to eat.

When it was time for dinner, she came to deliver it again, and the next day very early, she took over preparing Pei Qin’s meals.

"To capture a man’s heart, capture his stomach first!" Elder Sister Jun shared her experience.

Jun Su Xue could cook, though the meals weren’t particularly good, so she asked her sister-in-law for help and also learned from a chef.

Seeing that she was preparing meals for Pei Qin every day, the army’s Doctor Qi came over with a dietary recipe, "The General’s heart injury hasn’t fully recovered, and there are lingering toxins, young lady, please prepare meals according to this dietary recipe."

Jun Su Xue eagerly took it, thanked him, and inquired about Pei Qin’s injuries, "It’s been almost half a year now, and still not recovered, what was the situation with the General at that time?"

Doctor Qi, initially with Mo Heng, gradually became her personal physician once Pei Qin joined the military. Upon her inquiry, he said, "The injury was severe, she came back from the Gate of the Ghost several times." The Emperor went searching for the Seven-pulse Lotus, leaving him to look after the lady; during those days, he felt he almost passed through the Gate of the Ghost himself.

Jun Su Xue thought of his icy hand temperature, and her heart ached, urging Doctor Qi to prescribe several more medicinal diet recipes, wanting to nurse Pei Qin back to health with medicinal meals.

With someone sincerely taking care, Doctor Qi naturally was happy to teach her.

The meals placed before Pei Qin became increasingly varied and nourishing.

After training was not so busy, seeing Jun Su Xue coming over again, Pei Qin quickly picked up her sword and headed to the mountain, "Women can be really scary sometimes!" That look in her eyes made her feel uneasy. And with such a vehement character, if told she too was a woman, might she be so embarrassed and ashamed that she’d commit suicide?
