Falling in Love Online with an Ancient General

Since she could set the specific teleportation location, Feng Qingyi set it to her house.

With a press of the confirm button, in the blink of an eye, Feng Qingyi arrived in a very clean and tidy room.

After putting down the things in her hand, Feng Qingyi opened the door and looked around. The once overgrown house was now completely renewed.

The potted flowers in the courtyard were neatly arranged, and the ground was spotlessly clean.

Feng Qingyi walked around and was extremely satisfied with this residence.

Looking at her own clothes, Feng Qingyi returned to the room she had just been in, planning to change first before going next door to celebrate the birthday.

She had just seen a bed and many colorful clothes in that room, presumably it was the bedroom.

Back in the room, Feng Qingyi changed into a light green Shu embroidery gown, then sat down at the dressing table to prepare a simple hairstyle for herself.

Fortunately, in recent days, she had managed to learn a "flying immortal" hairstyle from watching videos, which could now be put to use.

After getting ready, Feng Qingyi headed next door with her packages.

When the butler saw Feng Qingyi, he quickly helped her with her things.

This young Miss Qingyi, so small, carrying so many things that her hands were red from the straps.

"Miss Qingyi, let this old servant help you take these to the main hall."

With someone to help, Feng Qingyi very gladly handed the things over to him.

Following the butler to the main hall, Feng Qingyi found herself surrounded by a room full of people.

"Who is this young lady? I've never seen her before. Which family is she from?"

"The butler personally escorted her in, her status must be extraordinary."

"..."

"Miss Qingyi, please have a seat!"

Seeing Feng Qingyi arrive, the people of the mansion hurriedly had her sit down and sent someone to inform Xuanyuan Xi in the side hall.

Madam Li, hearing Feng Qingyi's name, suddenly stood up, "This must be Miss Mu!"

Feng Qingyi looked at her in confusion. This woman dressed in magnificent splendor looked at her with eyes full of mockery.

Feng Qingyi was very certain she had never seen her before, and didn't know why she was looking at her like this. Could it be jealousy of her beauty?

"Hello, may I ask who you are?"

Xuanyuan Xi walked over, "Qingyi, this is Madam Li from the Grand Preceptor's Manor."

"Greetings, Madam Li." Thinking that they were now in the General's Mansion, and today was Xuanyuan Xi's birthday, she still gave Madam Li a somewhat improper curtsy.

Madam Li looked at Feng Qingyi with even more displeasure. How could a country bumpkin who didn't know etiquette compare to her daughter?

"Miss Mu has come today to wish the princess a happy birthday. I wonder what birthday gifts you have prepared? May we all have a look?"

As soon as Madam Li spoke, the surrounding ladies all looked over.

Although Feng Qingyi didn't know where her hostility came from, she wasn't stupid. Wasn't this just trying to embarrass her?

"These are my birthday gifts!" Feng Qingyi pointed to the things the butler had just helped bring in.

"It's truly from a small household, these things don't look worth much money."

"Not even a proper box, it looks quite shabby..."

"Perhaps it's not valuable, so they're making up for it with quantity."

"..."

Feng Qingyi paid no attention to what the people beside her were saying, but instead pulled out a bag from among the many gifts.

Then she took out a box from the bag, "Aunt, this is a gift for you. I hope you like it."

Xuanyuan Xi smiled and accepted the box, "Qingyi, you're so thoughtful."

Under everyone's gaze, Xuanyuan Xi opened the box. Inside was a dazzling bracelet.

"Princess, it's so beautiful, it's even glowing!"

"What is this? I've never seen anything like it!"

"This thing is so brilliant, it's even a bit blinding in the sunlight!"

"..."

Xuanyuan Xi held up the bracelet and examined it for a long time, "Qingyi, is this jewelry?"

"It's a bracelet. Let me help you put it on." Feng Qingyi took the bracelet and put it on Xuanyuan Xi's wrist.

Xuanyuan Xi was enamored with it, "I love Qingyi's gift."

Bai Wei looked at some of the boxes nearby, "Miss Qingyi, what's in these boxes over here?"

Feng Qingyi generously introduced each item to everyone, from bird's nest to thermos cups to massage devices.

The people around were getting restless, wanting to ask Feng Qingyi where she had obtained all these things.

Seeing this, Madam Li's face turned green.

Xuanyuan Xi had Bai Wei put all these things away safely, then pulled Feng Qingyi to sit down beside her.

Listening to these women chatting about household matters, Feng Qingyi felt a bit bored. Xuanyuan Xi noticed Feng Qingyi's distraction, "Xue Cha, take Qingyi out for a walk."

Feng Qingyi smiled at Xuanyuan Xi, "Then I'll step out for a bit."

Xue Cha followed behind Feng Qingyi, "Miss Qingyi, who helped you with your hairstyle today?"

Feng Qingyi: "Is it not done well?"

Xue Cha hurriedly explained, "No, it's done very well. It's just that I used to do the young miss's hair before..."

"I did it myself today. There are many guests in the mansion, and it wouldn't look good if I came to find you with my hair down. I only know how to do this one hairstyle, so I'll still need to rely on you in the future!"

Xue Cha said with a smile, "Yes, I'll learn some new hairstyles. When Miss Qingyi comes in the future, I'll do your hair for you again."

"Good, then let's just walk around for now."

Feng Qingyi and Xue Cha walked to the garden of the General's Mansion. Several young women were chatting about something in the garden.

"Huan'er, does your mother want you to marry into the General's Mansion and become the general's wife?"

"I wouldn't marry him! He's so old and still unmarried, there must be something wrong with him."

"This General Qin kills people like flies and is ruthless. I'm afraid no young lady in Shengjing would be willing to marry him."

"That's right. What if he dies on the battlefield one day? You'd have to remain a widow. Huan'er, I think you need to find a way out of this quickly."

"I've also heard that General Qin hasn't married for so long because he has some hidden illness."

"There are also rumors that he has a preference for men. All the guards around him are handsome, just for his convenience."

"..."

Feng Qingyi and Xue Cha stood not far away, hearing a lot of gossip.

According to Qin Yuchuan, he rarely stayed in Shengjing, yet there were so many rumors about him, each more outrageous than the last.

Seeing Feng Qingyi's expressionless face, Xue Cha hurriedly explained, "Miss Qingyi, don't listen to their nonsense. There's nothing wrong with the general!"

Feng Qingyi said with a smile, "You don't need to explain. I know everything."

"Who's there?"

Li Huan'er and the others looked towards where Feng Qingyi and Xue Cha were standing.
