Chapter 255: No Return
Gohara County, Jiuyuan County.
The scouts sent out early in the morning to inquire about the news reported that the team returning north had already entered the scope of governing the county, and it was estimated that they would arrive at the county seat at noon.
When Yan Xin, who was reviewing government affairs, heard the news, a warm smile appeared on his face, and he said 'yes' according to his pen, and asked someone to arrange it, saying that he would lead the people in the city to greet the triumphant soldiers.
In addition, he did not forget to send the housekeeper to inform his little sister of this good news.
Last month, the book was sent home from Nanyang, and it was a full seven volumes.
I don't know what is written in it, but after the little sister read it, she wanted to entrust her little niece to his house that day, saying that she wanted to go to Nanyang in person.
Yan Xin was shocked for a long time before he came back to his senses, he really didn't understand the woman's mind. You said that you didn't write a letter for half a month, and the women in the family were worried, which is normal; Now that the letter has been sent back, it is even more outrageous, and I want to go to Nanyang.
Yan Xin vetoed this proposal without thinking about it, the little sister can't ride a horse, and she has no martial arts for self-defense, if the old man in the family knows, he can't poke his head every day and scold.
In the end, he was really helpless, so Yan Xin asked people to go to Nanyang quickly, and brought back two letters, and the matter was settled.
The steward of the county government came to the Lu family's courtyard and saw Yan Wei coaxing the little guy to sleep. As if he was afraid of waking up the sleeping little master, he lowered his voice and truthfully relayed the news of triumph.
The slender hand that was slapping the swaddling clothes stopped slightly, and then moved to the little one's pink chin, and the index finger hooked back and forth to tease.
The little thing that was about to fall asleep opened its eyes, clenched its little fists, yawned a lot, and its dark eyes were full of energy.
"Xiao Ling'er, let's go see Daddy."
Yan Wei kissed the little guy's forehead, and said in an affectionate tone, with joy between her eyebrows and eyes, and her little dimple was full of happiness.
Waiting every day, looking forward to it every day, my husband is finally back.
The little guy seemed to understand, and he didn't get angry, and he grinned.
…………
It was almost noon, and outside the gate of the county seat stood the county guard Yan Xin, and there were many people in the city, many of whom had not even finished the farm work in the fields, so they came here early.
Just to take another look at the big hero in their minds, the brave and good flying general.
The soldiers on the arrow tower of the city wall looked into the distance, and after a while, a small black dot appeared on the distant horizon.
"The general is back!"
The soldiers on the arrow tower cheered, and as time passed, the black dot gradually became clear, and it was a mighty procession like a long river.
"Shogun Kamui!" The crowd didn't know who was the first to shout.
This shout made all the people and soldiers who came to greet them explode, and they raised their fists, and their faces were excited and shouted in unison: "General Shenwei!" Shogun Kamui! ”
Enthusiastic cheers poured into the ears one after another, and most of the local people were so enthusiastic in every county since the crossing of the Turbid River. They took the initiative to take out food and fruits from their homes and distribute them to the soldiers passing by on the way.
If it weren't for seeing it with their own eyes, it would be hard for Feng Ji Xinping and others to believe that this team was so popular with the people.
The marching procession arrived outside the city, and the horsemen dismounted and marched forward on foot.
The people who had been waiting for a long time rushed up, and the prepared melons, fruits, food, and delicious wine were rushed to the hands of the soldiers.
Drinking the sweet and mellow wine, Guan Hai and a group of new recruits were deeply infected, and their eyes gradually moistened. When he was a moth thief, everyone shouted and beaten, in addition to robbing or robbing, how could there have been such sincere treatment from the people.
Xi Ce led Guo Jiafengji and other scribes out of the carriage, for this gentleman, the people did not dare to make any mistakes, respectfully handed over the melons and fruits, and shouted 'Master's hard work'.
In the eyes of these peasants with their faces facing the loess and their backs to the sky, if Xice can teach their children to read and write, it is already a grace that cannot be repaid, and they respect it from the bottom of their hearts.
And those lively and active urchins stood honestly in place after seeing Xi Ce, like mice seeing cats, learning the etiquette taught by Xi Ce, saluting, and shouting: "Good Master." ”
Guo Jia, who had been bumpy all the way, took a breath of fresh air, and the stuffiness in his chest suddenly eased a lot, he looked up at the 10,000-foot sky above the clear blue sky, and then turned his head to look at the thin young man, and finally a few ripples appeared in his peaceful state of mind.
I don't believe you can trap me here for the rest of my life.
Cao He and Song Xian stepped forward to find Yan Xin, explained what Lu Bu meant, and temporarily handed over this group of Yingchuan people who had migrated from afar to Yan Xin for arrangement.
Of course, most of them are definitely going to join the army.
Why isn't my husband here?
It may be that the affairs are heavy, and the one who walks in the back will definitely come over after a while......
However, when everyone stopped to rest, Yan Wei, who was standing under the city gate full of anticipation, still couldn't see the familiar tall figure.
The little guy in his arms began to make a restless noise, Yan Wei patted the swaddling clothes while squeezing through the crowd and walked to Cao Xing, who was talking to Yan Xin.
"General Cao, where is my husband?" She pursed her lips lightly and asked in a low voice.
Seeing that it was Yan Wei, Cao Xing clasped his fists and shouted 'sister-in-law', and did not hide it, and said truthfully with resentment: "Originally, I had walked to the mouth of the Turbid River, but a Huang Menlang with a decree came, recited the holy decree, and asked the leader to follow." ”
"That's right~"
Yan Wei read in a low voice, the look in her eyes was much darker, and she was not happy, adding a little loss.
It's a good thing to focus on your career, how can you think about your children every day.
She thought so, but she felt more and more sour in her heart: even if she doesn't see herself, she should come back to see her daughter, it's only a few steps from the muddy river to here!
The words that my mother had said when she came quietly came to mind.
Women, be generous, it's a good thing for men to be motivated, even if they take concubines in the future, it's a common thing, how can they force a couple for a lifetime, and they will be gossiped about.
The more she thought about it, the more aggrieved Yan Wei saluted Yan Xinfu, "Fourth brother, I'll go back first, Xiao Ling'er is sleepy." ”
Yan Xin let out a 'hmm', obviously not noticing the loss of his little sister, and asked Xiang Cao Xuan in a deep voice: "What do you know?" At first, he thought that Lu Bu had gone home early like last time, but he never thought that there were these reasons.
"I didn't say anything specifically, but it seems to be in a hurry."
Cao Xing shook his head and said disapprehantly, Lu Bu asked him and Song Xian to bring these people back first, saying that after working hard to fight the moth thieves for so long, they should also go back to Wuyuan to rest for a while.
He himself only took Wei Musheng's two hundred wolf rides and followed Huang Menlang away. 8)
