Yuchi Xiu returned in the golden armor to the tent Wei Ting shared with Jing Yi.
After posturing a a few times, he felt that his waist was about to break.
He held his sore waist and gritted his teeth. “General Wei Xu has a good waist and kidney… No wonder he can give birth to so many sons…”
Leng Zhao deserved this outcome.
However, this was not the end. The Leng family’s retribution had just begun. From this moment on, they would return everything they had stolen from the Wei family bit by bit.
A heart-wrenching wail came from Leng Kui’s tent…
Su Xiaoxiao turned around and slept peacefully.
Su Xiaoxiao left a large sum of money for Qin Canglan. At this point, she had almost spent all the money she had earned from Zhao Kangning and the envoy of Northern Yan. In addition, she used some gold from the White Lotus Society as compensation for the soldiers.
After everything was packed, Qin Canglan came over to send his precious granddaughter and miserable grandson-in-law.
“It stopped snowing two days ago. You can travel.”
He touched his precious granddaughter’s head reluctantly. This was the joy of family that had come many years late. He wished he could be with them every day, but he couldn’t leave for the time being. He had to guard the border,
Northern Yan had to fight, and the traitors of the Leng family had to be killed.
Su Xiaoxiao had never experienced the warmth of a family in her previous life, but in this life, she was deeply cared for by every family member.
She obediently let him pat her head.
“Grandpa, I’ll wait for you in the capital. Come back quickly after you and
Cousin are done fighting.”
Qin Canglan smiled. “Okay!”
Su Xiaoxiao looked at Su MO, who was helping her move her luggage. “Cousin, take care too.”
Su MO nodded. “I will.”
Su Xiaoxiao continued, “The Crimson Shadow Army is in your hands, Grandpa and Cousin.”
Qin Canglan said, “Don’t worry, Mo’er will personally lead the troops and treat them as his trusted aides.”
Then, Qin Canglan instructed Wei Ting, “You’re a father now. Don’t be so reckless in the future. Do you really think you have nine lives?”
Wei Ting put on a show of obedience. “Yes, Grandpa. I’ll remember it.”
Qin Canglan was quite satisfied. “Recuperate carefully. When I return to the court, I’ll give you more guidance.”
Was he going to be beaten up again… Wei Ting’s smile froze on his lips.
Qin Canglan looked at Jing Yi, who was sitting in another wheelchair. “Kid, you’re not bad.”
Little Dumpling Baby Jing blushed.
Admiral Qin praised him. Admiral Qin praised him. Admiral Qin praised him…
Xiao Duye also wanted to go to the capital. He couldn’t wait to return to the capital to claim credit from Emperor Jing Xuan.
He was alone in a carriage.
Su Xiaoxiao, Jing Yi, Wei Ting, and Wuhu were in one other carriage.
When they came, they were all energetic. When they returned, only Su Xiaoxiao and the parrot were left standing.
Xiao Duye was extremely tired. Jing Yi and Wei Ting were wrapped up like dumplings. Because they could not move, they were not allowed to quarrel. They could only fight in the carriage with unwilling gazes.
The group embarked on their journey back to the capital.
On the other side, Uncle Han and the girl sneaked into the snow mountain of Northern Yan with a group of experts.
“Uncle Han, is this the place? We went the wrong way last time. Could it be that we made a mistake this time?” the girl asked.
Uncle Han said, “Last time, I accidentally lost my way when locating the Snow Domain Hemp. This time, I followed the map carefully. There won’t be any mistakes.”
As they spoke, the few of them arrived at the entrance of the pa.s.sageway. They raised their torches and entered. After walking for about half an hour, they arrived at the end.
Uncle Han squatted down and found the mechanism on the ground. He stepped on it and the stone door opened.
However, when they entered, they were stunned by the scene in front of them.
“Uncle Han, why is it so messy inside?”
The weapons racks had all fallen, and swords, sabers, spears, and halberds were scattered all over the ground. There were also many broken cold arrows and hidden weapons. The girl simply had no place to stand.
Uncle Han sized it up carefully and said with a serious expression, “Someone fought here and triggered a mechanism.”
The girl fanned herself with her hand. “Did anyone arrive before us?”
There was a weak breathing sound from behind the stone wall. Uncle Han’s eyes flickered as he hurriedly found a mechanism to open the stone door of another secret room.
The stone table was empty, except for a dying man under a huge rock at the side.
Uncle Han pounced on the stone table and searched carefully, but he found nothing.
“It’s gone… It’s gone…”
The two missions to Broken North Pa.s.s this time had failed. The Snow Domain Hemp had been s.n.a.t.c.hed away, and even the treasure to restore the country had been s.n.a.t.c.hed away.
He clenched his fists in disbelief. “Who is it… Who is it?!”
When she came, she was concerned about saving Wei Ting. Along the way, Xiao Duye vomited a few times. Although she did not have to save anyone when she returned, she was still worried about the children. The carriage continued to travel quickly.
Xiao Duye was vomited out again. He was even worse off than Wei Ting and Jing Yi.
Their injuries improved day by day. When they approached the capital, the two of them could already get out of the carriage.
In late January, it actually snowed again in the capital. Snowflakes fell in large Datches. and not long after. a thick laver acc.u.mulated on the ground.
The three children returned to Ling Yun’s cla.s.s after ? 15th January.
However, unlike the past, the three little evil disciples had been much quieter recently.
The three of them sat on their small futons like little puppets whose souls had been sucked out. They were indifferent to the small zither placed in front of them.
Ling Yun was suddenly not used to it.
“Do you want to play flower drums?” he asked.
The three of them shook their heads. “Hit the gong?” he said again.
The three of them still shook their heads.
Ling Yun took a deep breath. “Xiao Hu, don’t you like to play erhu the most?”
Xiaohu turned his back.
He didn’t want to play erhu.
He only wanted his mother to come back.
Why wasn’t his mother back yet?
Ling Yun sighed. “That’s all for today. I’ll send you back.”
The three little ones drooped their heads and left listlessly.
Ling Yun carried them into the carriage one by one and sent them back to the Wei family.
It was the new year. The other children had gained weight, but the three children had lost weight.
Old Madam Wei’s heart ached. She tried her best to make the three little fellows happy, but the three of them could not muster their spirits.
There were times when Old Madam Wei was at her wit’s end.
The three little ones would go to the door to wait for Su Xiaoxiao after dinner every day. The snow was un.o.bstructed.
It was snowing heavily today and the weather was cold.
The three little ones carried the farmer’s bags and obediently sat at the threshold to wait for their mother.
Their faces were red from the cold, and their tears were coming out.
However, it was useless no matter who tried to persuade him. They refused to go in.
Wait, wait, wait. It was dark.
The aunties watched anxiously.
Finally, a carriage arrived in the snow and stopped at the Wei family’s entrance.
The three little ones’ eyes lit up as they ran over clumsily.
However, it was Su Li who came down.
Su Li smiled. “Did you know that Uncle was coming and were waiting for me here?”
The three little ones lowered their heads and sat back on the threshold in disappointment.
“Hey… you guys…”
Su Li was here today to give the little fellows new clothes made by his mother. When he left, the three little ones were still sitting on the threshold, looking aggrieved and pitiful.
After waiting for another fifteen minutes, a second carriage arrived. This time, it was a guest who was visiting.
The third carriage came, followed by the fourth, and the fifth.
The three of them were filled with hope and disappointment again and again. In the end, the three of them were extremely sad. Tears of grievance welled up in their eyes, but they did their best not to let them fall.
Li Wan squatted down and touched their faces. “We’ll wait tomorrow.”
“Yes, let’s go back.”
Madam Lan also said softly.
Mdm Jiang said, “Fifth Aunt will bring you to see the lanterns, okay?” They didn’t want lanterns. They only wanted their mother..
