The General's Little Peasant Wife

Chapter 189: Before Wedding

Translator: Vesper

Ning Meng Yao only knew about the Xiao Zi Xuan’s demotion when Xiao Qi Tian came over for a visit.

Ning Meng Yao was unaffected by the news, but she thought that this would be better as Xiao Zi Xuan would spend less of her energy on her.

“Didn’t I handle the matter well?” Xiao Qi Tian asked, wanting to get a compliment from Ning Meng Yao.

Speechless, Ning Meng Yao replied, “are you sure she would not fly into a rage out of humiliation?”

“Isn’t that even better? You will have a legitimate reason to deal with her.” Xiao Qi Tian knew that Ning Meng Yao had the intention to deal with the matter herself, but gave him a chance to settle it on the account of Xiao Residence. But if a similar incident were to happen again, then there would be nothing else he could do.

Ning Meng Yao raised her eyebrows and nodded with a shrug. If Xiao Zi Xuan did not learn from her lesson, she was more than willing to teach her another one, but there was no guarantee to the number of people who would be implicated.

“You aren’t angry anymore, are you?” Xiao Qi Tian asked, unsettled.

Ning Meng Yao smiled at Xiao Qi Tian as she understood his concern, “Don’t worry, I will not make things difficult for you and your brother. You guys are Tian Chang’s brother.” She was willing to give in and help Qian Tian Chang protect the country that he loves.

Upon hearing her words, Xiao Qi Tian heaved a sigh of relief and believed her, “I’m relieved.”

He was not worried as long as it did not concern Xiao Country. Did the well-being of the others concern him? Of course not.

Lin Zi You and the others were puzzled by their words. What were they talking about?

“How’s the wedding preparation going?” Sensing their confused gazes, Xiao Qi Tian tried to divert the conversation.

“En, it’s done. There will be a few more friends attending.” The thought of those few made her swallow a lump down her throat as she wondered how they would react once they had arrived.

Xiao Qi Tian watched Ning Meng Yao breaking into a smile, but somehow he could sense the terrifying emotions behind that smile.

He was smart enough to keep the questions to himself, or else he would have been kicked out by Ning Meng Yao.

As the wedding ceremony approached, Ning Meng Yao began to worry. Those people would be arriving soon, weren’t they?

“What’s wrong?” Qiao Tian Chang wondered as he watched Ning Meng Yao’s dazed expression. This girl had not been in her usual state since half a month ago. She would occasionally steal glances at the door, looking as if she was about to lose her life in a war anytime.

Ning Meng Yao looked at Qiao Tian Chang plaintively, “how’s your martial arts skill, Tian Chang?”

“Good.” Qiao Tian Chang held great confidence in his ability.

“Then I won’t have to worry.” Ning Meng Yao got herself a pat on her chest before letting out a sigh of relief.

“Wow, I didn’t know you can feel fear, Xiao Yao’er?” Before Qiao Tian Chang could ask any further, a voice spoke tyrannically.

Ning Meng Yao stiffened from the voice, and she turned awkwardly to the direction.

When she saw a good-looking group at the door, she looked up at Qiao Tian Chang, “Why don’t we make a run now, Tian Chang?” Those people are horrifying.

“If you dare to make a run with your man, trust me, we will hold a protest and stop our work.” The woman in the lead raised her eyebrows and spoke.

Qiao Tian Chang turned towards the door. There stood four people in total, three being women and one man. The one who just spoke was a revealing and voluptuous woman.

“Don’t worry Yao Yao, it will be alright.” He guessed that these are the four masters of the Tong Bao Zhai

“As expected from her husband, for him to understand the situation.” The bewitching women led the rest into the house, with some carrying luggage.

Being stared at by four pairs of eyes brought tremendous pressure to Ning Meng Yao, “Why are you here?”

“Why can’t we be here for your wedding? Are we supposed to wait until your child is born before we pay our visit?” The woman asked sarcastically.

Ning Meng Yao regretted her decision, she should have been completely honest with them from the start. Now she was done for.
