The Young General's Wife Is Mr. Lucky

7. I can stay if i get married

Jiang Zhentao and Qiao Mulan were stunned by what Yu Jinli said and stared at him vigilantly.

Them, their son and the doctor who treated Jiang Zhentao were the only ones who knew that he was poisoned. The world thought he became weak for his super core was damaged, However, how did this boy know it?

"You... how do you know that?" Jiang Zhentao asked, shocked.
If it wasn't for the innocence in this boy's eyes, he and Qiao Mulan would have taken him as a spy sent by an enemy.

However, this contrast shook him. What shook him more was what the boy said.
"In this manor, you'll feel better."
He did feel better every time he returned home. But he always thought it was because he was more relaxed at home, wasn't it?

He asked himself inwardly. Then he laughed at himself.
What else could it be? This manor remained same. Besides, he had been poisoned for years and his health had deteriorated over the years. If there was something in this manor that could cure him, he would have recovered.

Yu Jinli's brows drew together. He recalled his master shifu told him repeatedly not to tell anyone he could tell a person's fortune since humans, without any superpower, would exclude anyone who was different from them. Even people with a good heart would be afraid of him because of his difference.
He was born different from humans. If he told them, would they kill him, knowing that he was a spirit beast?

Divided, he turned to Jiang Zhentao and Qiao Mulan. He wanted to tell them, but his master's words rang in his head. However, he didn't want to lie to them either.
"Do I have to speak about that?" He asked in a timid tone. His eyes were rounder against his small face, watery, which softened Jiang Zhentao's and Qiao Mulan's heart.

"Let's drop that for now. It's your first day here. Let me show you around." Qiao Mulan couldn't bear it anymore and opened her mouth.
Though she didn't know how this young man knew about her husband's condition, she knew he meant no harm. At least, she had that confidence in her judgment.
Meanwhile, a little hope rose in her heart.

Since Yu Jinli knew about her husband's condition, would it be possible that he knew how to cure it?
Jiang Zhentao had seen the best doctors. Pitiably, the toxin was only suppressed, not cured. She had no choice but to see her husband wither away over time.

It was already tough enough for her. However, her son was badly injured due to the same reason.
Sometimes, she felt she couldn't carry on anymore.

"Okay, Uncle Jiang told me I'm here to marry the young lord. If I marry him, can I stay here?" Yu Jinli asked, his eyes glistening.
Jiang Zhentao and Qiao Mulan were stunned again. They had been shocked more than ever before this single day since this young man's words always startled them.

"You want to marry Ah Sheng?" Unsure, Qiao Mulan asked.
Could it be that Yu Jinli was one of Ah Sheng's admirers? Ah Sheng did have a lot of admirers in the past but all of them ran as far away from him as possible after his accident.

Yu Jinsheng, who used to claim he would marry nobody other than Jiang Mosheng also broke off his engagement. Under such a circumstance, was there indeed someone who was willing to marry her son?
"Yes." Hearing her question, Yu Jinli nodded vigorously, his eyes narrowed in a smile.
