“Madam, that black gunpowder is not a joke. Let me do it for you next time.”

Although they had only been together for two days, Auntie Liao could tell that the two masters who had just moved in were easy to get along with. Otherwise, she wouldn’t have dared to say such things.

Shen Yijia pursed her lips. “It’s fine. I was just playing.”

The black gunpowder she concocted was only half complete. Apart from being a little loud, there was no danger at all.

What went wrong?

Seeing that she was thinking about something, Auntie Liao did not dare to disturb her again.

After finally combing Shen Yijia’s messy hair, she was about to get water to wash her up.

“Madam, Little General Meng requests an audience,” Uncle Ming said respectfully.

“General?” Shen Yijia thought for a moment. “Tell him that my husband isn’t around. He can come back later.”

Auntie Liao reminded him, “Little General Meng is General Meng’s eldest daughter.”

Shen Yijia was stunned. “A woman?”

“That’s right.” Auntie Liao nodded. “So you can’t just push the guest to the duke again.”

Shen Yijia did not think too much about it. Since she was a general, she thought that she was here regarding military matters. She did not understand those things. Besides, she still had to help her beautiful husband make gunpowder. How could she have the time to waste on guests?

Just as she was about to say that she didn’t want to meet her, Uncle Ming said, “Little General Meng is here to see Madam.”

Shen Yijia was speechless.

“Can I not meet her?”

Uncle Ming hesitated and said, “Of course, but…”

“What is it?”

“It’s just that the Meng family has been stationed at Nanling Pa.s.s all year round. Be it in the hearts of the commoners or in the military, they have quite a bit of prestige. I’m afraid people will gossip if we reject them,” Uncle Ming a.n.a.lyzed.

How troublesome.

Shen Yijia pursed her lips. “Alright, then invite her to the reception pavilion.”

Uncle Ming left after receiving the instructions. Seeing that Shen Yijia was about to follow, Auntie Liao quickly stopped her. “Madam, why don’t you change your clothes before meeting the guests?”

“Aren’t my clothes fine?” It wasn’t like she was meeting her beautiful husband. She had to dress up beautifully if that was the case.

Shen Yijia looked down at her clothes. They were just a little dark.

“That’s not right. It seems that Auntie Liao’s reaction was not right when Uncle Ming came in and said that Little General Meng wanted to see me.” she thought.

First, she deliberately reminded her that the person who came was a woman, and now she asked her to change her clothes.

She narrowed her eyes. “Auntie Liao, is there a problem with Little General Meng?”

Auntie Liao did not expect her to ask so directly. She said tactfully, “Little

General Meng is already seventeen this year and hasn’t gotten married yet.”

There were many women at the border who only got married when they were 17 or 18 years old, but they had all taken a fancy to someone early on and decided on a marriage long before that age. It was rare to see a 17-year-old girl like Meng Linyan who had no one by her side.

“What does that have to do with…” Shen Yijia was stunned and said suspiciously, “So she doesn’t have a man and wants to s.n.a.t.c.h my man?”

The corners of Auntie Liao’s mouth twitched. It was said that women at the border were bold, but this woman from Chang’an was even bolder.

Seeing the faint anger in Shen Yijia’s eyes, she quickly explained, “I don’t know what Little General Meng is thinking. It’s just that the Bulwark Duke is in a high position at a young age and is talented and good-looking.”

She did not finish, but Shen Yijia understood. To summarize, her husband was too perfect. It was difficult not to be tempted.

But so what?

Shen Yijia said seriously, “My husband already has me. No one else has a

chance.”

“Oh my.” Auntie Liao had never seen someone so magnanimous. ”

She felt that this d.u.c.h.ess was too innocent. Afraid that Shen Yijia would suffer, she simply said, “Normally speaking, even if the Meng family wants to visit, they should have asked Madam Meng to appear. How can an unmarried girl come knocking on our door?”

Wasn’t everyone aware of Little General Meng’s thoughts?

That wasn’t right. The d.u.c.h.ess hadn’t thought of this.

Auntie Liao was really worried.

In her opinion, with the Duke’s status, it was better to be his concubine than someone else’s legitimate wife.

Shen Yijia wanted to say that her husband did not take concubines, but after thinking about it, she felt that there was no need. Anyway, it did not stop others from having designs on her beautiful husband.

“Thank you for the reminder, Auntie. I understand.” She nodded and walked out.

If it were anyone else, they would definitely want to dress up beautifully and go out to make the other woman think that they were inferior and not dare to have any designs on their husbands again.

However, Shen Yijia did not think so. Changing her clothes specifically to meet someone like that, wasn’t it giving them too much face?

Most importantly, she did not care about anyone regardless of their status..
