The Little Childhood Friend in a Female-Dominated World (ChatGPT Translated)

11. General Lu

General Lu

Lu Feng was awakened in the morning by the noise outside. Annoyed, she furrowed her brows, pulled the blanket over her head, and went back to sleep.

She woke up in the middle of the night yesterday, and she doesn't feel very well today.

"Master, wake up quickly." Mu Tou reached out and brushed off the snowflakes that fell on her shoulder, stomped her feet, and then entered the house. Her nose, which had been numb from the cold outside, suddenly felt the urge to run when she entered the room with a burning brazier.

Afraid of being despised by Lu Feng, Mu Tou wiped her sleeve and quickly ran to the bed to wake someone up. "Master, please wake up. The general has returned."

In the Lu residence, if someone calls for General Ji, it refers to Ji Ruan. The only one who can be directly called "General" is Lu Feng's mother, Lu Rong.

Lu Feng startled and sat up from the bed. The first thought that came to her mind when she heard her mother had returned was that she hadn't finished her homework yet!

"Oh no, why did my mother come back early?" Lu Feng quickly got up, took the clothes handed to her by Mu Tou, put them on, and frowned, "Wasn't it supposed to be tomorrow at the earliest?"

It's good to have one more day.

Mu Tou's hand holding the clothes trembled, and with a bitter face, she quietly reminded, "My master, please don't let the lord hear that, otherwise, you won't have a comfortable year."

The lord has been eagerly waiting for the general's return. If he hears these words, he will definitely grab a broom and break my master's leg, scolding her for being an ungrateful little thing who isn't even happy when her own mother returns.

Lu Feng pouted, "If it weren't for my father forcing me to do homework, I would definitely be happy when my mother returns."

Although she said so, it had been a year since she last saw her mother, so naturally, she was anxious in her heart. Lu Feng quickly put on her clothes and ran out.

She arrived at her parents' courtyard and just reached the entrance of the main hall when she saw her father reaching out to brush off the snowflakes on someone's shoulder and unfastening the black fox fur cloak from their body.

The person, who appeared to be in their early thirties, stood sideways facing the door. Their face was sharp and distinct, showing signs of exhaustion from traveling overnight. They were still wearing a pitch-black armor, indicating that they had just returned from the palace.

At this moment, they lowered their gaze and looked at Ji Shi, who was circling around them. Their eyes were gentle and calm, and there was a slight upward curve at the usually cold corners of their mouth. Although they didn't say a word, it made people feel that they were being well taken care of.

"Mother." Lu Feng always dared not be presumptuous towards Lu Rong, so she entered respectfully and bowed.

Lu Rong turned to look at her. The gentle aura around her disappeared, and she sat down on the chair, exuding the imposing aura of a general. She asked, "Have you made any progress in the past year?"

Just came back and asked about kung fu, Lu Feng picked her fingers and vaguely said, "It's, it's alright. I've never lost a fight anyway. . ."

She didn't dare to say this in front of Lu Rong. When she met her stern eyes, Lu Feng lowered her head and pretended to be innocent.

"Oh, asking about this right after coming back, how disappointing." Ji Shi came over to defuse the situation, wiped Lu Rong's face with a hot towel, and messed up his stern demeanor.
