Major General’s Smart and Gorgeous Wife
chapter-54

Yun Ting just acted as if he didn’t hear her, and dotingly kissed Lin Mumu on her forehead: “Don’t worry, I won’t let you suffer in vain.”

(TN: I won’t let you suffer in vain has other synonyms: won’t let you be wronged, won’t let you suffer grievances/losses.)

“I’m all right.” Lin Mumu shook her head. “Shall I go out and explain it properly?”

“Are you stupid?” An Xiaoqin hated her ‘not seeking justice’ attitude.

(TN: The exact meaning is more like her attitude of not contending with others/fighting them, not actively striving to harm others, not seeking to redress her grievance and asking for justice etc.)

“I barely hung up my big brother’s phone call. He came over to us and brought along his SWAT team’s members. We, Beijing University students, aren’t people that can be easily bullied.

In this time’s matter, I suspect that someone bribed that instructor to be purposely vicious with you. Wang Chong was a military instructor and he and Lin Mumu had never met before, so why would he be so ruthless with her?

An Xiaoqin had been immersed in these kinds of matters from her childhood and was very accustomed to them. Such poor means of hiring murderers would only work to bully young and ignorant students.

However, Lin Mumu was her, An Xiaoqin’s, good friend. Could she simply watch as she was being bullied? If this man couldn’t get Lin Mumu out of predicament and stick out for her, shouldn’t she just encourage her own big brother to strive to make more efforts?

Yun Ting didn’t feel at ease leaving Lin Mumu alone, so he left Chen Fangya behind to take care of her, and firmly instructed her to call on the phone him if anything happened. But he still wasn’t reassured enough, so he called over two soldiers to guard the entrance of the tent before leaving while burning with rage.

“Wow, Lin Mumu, your boyfriend is so handsome, ah, and so manly!” Chen Fangya had an starry eyed infatuated expression on her face.

“Yun Ting is my husband.” Lin Mumu emphasized again.

“I know, I know, you guys can hug at all times, kiss at all times, and act lovingly like a little pair of sweethearts.” Chen Fangya jokingly made fun of Lin Mumu.

“We are husband and wife, a legally married couple with a marriage certificate.” Lin Mumu corrected her with a deadly earnest expression. (TN: Also called deadpan face, deadly serious, solemnly, not joking.)

“Ha?”

In front of Chen Fangya’s doubtful eyes, Lin Mumu nodded seriously.

“You unexpectedly got married this early?”

Lin Mumu continued to nod: “Anyway, we were going to get married sooner or later.”

“Well, if I was given such a handsome man, I would also marry.”

“Let’s go out to take a look.” Lin Mumu’s eyes turned as she was thinking. She was indeed a little afraid of the students of Beijing University making things difficult for Yun Ting.

After all, this matter was due to Wang Chong’s individual behavior. If the students make a scene, the conflict will easily intensify between them and the army, and it may result in bloodshed.

“A woman in love really has negative IQ. After all is said and done, you’re still thinking about him.” Chen Fangya also hated her unconcerned attitude of not seeking revenge.

“I’m really all right. I was just a little embarrassed at that time. Didn’t I tell you secretly that when I was in San Qing Temple, my master would punish me by protracted kneeling that could go as long as two days and two nights? What’s a little military station in comparison?”

“Can you really? I wonder who was it that actually fainted in the end?” Chen Fangya really felt that Lin Mumu was helpless.

Although Lin Mumu fainted, it wasn’t actually caused by the misfortune that came over her. It was mainly because when her period came, her body was suddenly emptied of an important quantity of blood and suffered momentary blood deficiency, which was more exaggerated as usual since it was stimulated by the scorching sun and not taking any meal, water or break in a long time.

At the moment, she was drinking a bowl of brown sugar mixed in warm water that Yun Ting left her before leaving, along several bags of jujube snacks to eat. (TN: jujube are red dates, and there are well-known for being beneficial to replenish blood during menstruation. Brown sugar water is also a drink Chinese woman drink to relieve period cramps.)

The person was already feeling much better. After all, she was still young, and her physical foundation was also pretty good.

In the end, Chen Fangya was also unable to resist her curiosity, and she was also unable to change Lin Mumu’s mind nor persuade her to obediently stay put, so they both decided to go over together to take a look at the bustling scene. (TN: There’s also a meaning of taking part in the excitement/watching the show, here.)

“What do we do about the guard at the door?” Chen Fangya asked.

“I’ll find a way. You just need to follow my lead.”

Sure enough, the moment they stepped out of the tent, someone blocked their way.

Lin Mumu bluntly said: “We’re going to the toilet.”

“Sister-in-law, I’ll escort you there.” Of the two guards, Lin Mumu recognized Xiao Du who was the exact same guard that had accompanied Yun Ting to pick her up from the mountain before.

Lin Mumu cooperatively nodded.

“Sister-in-law, are you all right?” Xiao Du was really concerned about Lin Mumu.

“I’m alright.” Lin Mumu didn’t go around the curves and skirt the corners with Xiao Du, she straightforwardly told him: “I’m going to look for Yun Ting. If you really recognize me as your sister-in-law, you’ll immediately take me there. Otherwise, you’ll knock me out, and when I wake up, I’ll complain to Yun Ting and tell him you bullied me.” (TN: idiom meaning beating around the bush.)

“I will testify!” Chen Fangya cooperatively raised her hand.
