Although the donkey cart was very fast, it was already past lunch time when they arrived at the county, so Li Lanzhen stopped in front of a seafood noodle restaurant.

He ordered five bowls of seafood noodles, but was afraid that the village chief and Zhuzi would not be full, so he asked for ten seafood cakes from the shop next door.

A seafood pancake costs two cents each, which is one cent cheaper than the meat pie in Youzhou City.

Li Lanzhen first picked up a seafood pancake and took a bite. The dough was soft and the filling was rich.

I don’t know how the store handles it, but the seafood filling is fresh and delicious, without any fishy smell.

The village chief and Zhuzi gulped down a bowl of seafood noodles and were too embarrassed to reach out for the pancakes.

Li Lanzhen put a pancake in each of their bowls.

"Eat, and then we can hurry on our way."

After hurrying all they could, they returned to the residences of the generals and other officials outside the border defense camp just as the sun was about to set.

The two guards knew Li Lanzhen and did not stop her.

He drove the donkey cart quickly past and headed towards Han Mingjiang's yard.

Hearing the sound of the donkey cart, Han Yibai rushed over like a cannonball and hugged Li Lanzhen's legs.

"Grandma, why did you come back just now? I thought you didn't want me anymore.

"Wuwuwu." She burst into tears.

Li Lanzhen picked him up and wiped away her tears.

"Okay, look, grandma brought you two little friends. Aren't you ashamed? And you're crying."

Han Yibai immediately stopped crying and ignored the hiccups.

When he turned around, he saw the two children in the donkey cart staring at him with their eyes wide open.

He wiped away his tears shyly.

He hid his head in Li Lanzhen's neck and remained silent.

The village chief and Zhuzi were still worried about Li Lanzhen as they walked along.

Only when they arrived here and saw the soldiers with swords did they feel relieved.

It seems that what you said is true.

If this is the case, the two children will be able to have enough food to eat with her, and they can grow up by staying in the village and eating at other people's homes. But this is too difficult. If they encounter a disease, the chances of survival are too small.

Zhuzi pulled the village chief's arm and whispered.

"Village Chief, let Shuiwang and his sister follow the noble man."

The village chief nodded silently, and two people took the child down. Li Lanzhen put Han Yibai on the ground.

"Come here, Han Yibai, let me introduce him to you. His name is Shuiwang, and this is Shuiwang's sister, Niuniu.

They are going to follow us back to Youzhou City. From now on, the three of you are good friends. You have to take good care of them."

Han Yibai was very proud to be assigned such an important task by Li Lianzhen. He walked over with his chest puffed out and held their hands, "Let's go home."

After entering the yard, he said to Shuiwang.

"You have to stay with my father now. When my mother is out of confinement and feels better, you can follow me and grandma back to Youzhou City.

The Peach Blossom Spring is so big and has so many delicious foods.

You two are so skinny, you definitely can't eat enough.

Let me tell you, I didn’t have enough to eat when I was a child. My mother held me in her arms and followed my grandmother to escape famine. We were able to get enough to eat only when we came to Taohuayuan.

It’s all thanks to my grandma who is so good, she brought us…”

Balabala's mouth kept talking.

Li Lanzhen saw the village chief and Zhuzi standing outside in a daze and not coming in.

He called out to them, "Village Chief and Zhuzi, you two come in as well."

Dinner included seafood, meat, rice, steamed sweet potatoes, potatoes and pumpkin.

After Han Mingjiang came back, Li Lanzhen told him about the small fishing village.

The village chief said that Li Lanzhen exchanged food for a lot of dried seafood and saved their lives, and she was a benefactor to their two villages.

Neither Han Mingjiang nor Xue Nizi asked Li Lanzhen where she put the dried seafood.

Knowing that the two children were orphans, they wanted to follow Li Lanzhen back to Taohuayuan.

Han Mingjiang picked up the rice wine and toasted the village chief and Zhuzi.

"Village Chief Zhuzi, I respect you. You treat these two children very well, even better than your own family.

My mother left you some sweet potatoes and potatoes. You should take good care of them and plant them well. Gradually, you will plant more and have enough to eat. "

The village chief and Zhuzi were flattered and drank a bowl of rice wine before they slowly relaxed.

After hearing Han Mingjiang say this, they became very confident that they would be able to have enough food to eat in the future.

Even if they didn't believe what Li Lanzhen said, they believed what the young general Han Mingjiang said.

The next morning, Li Lanzhen asked the cook to bake more than a hundred Sanhe flour pancakes.

He filled a water bag with spiritual spring water and asked the servant in the mansion to drive the donkey cart to take them back.

Before leaving, the village chief and Zhuzi held the two children and kept reminding them to listen to Li Lanzhen.

Don't cause trouble, and come back to visit the fishing village when you grow up.

After seeing off the village chief and his men, Li Lanzhen found some sets of clothes for the two children and asked the maids in the mansion to bathe the two children and change their clothes.

Han Yibai took the two children out to play.

Xue Nizi had completed her confinement period, and Xuan Shen also returned at dawn on that morning.

Han Mingjiang was preparing to hold a full-month banquet, with five tables of banquet food.

Tiantian is one month old. The one-month-old girl is white and plump, like a full peanut, so cute.

The big eyes are very similar to Xue Nizi's. When the baby was brought to the yard, his black eyes looked around everywhere.

Today's banquet includes dishes made with vermicelli.

Cold vermicelli with lots of green leafy vegetables, Chinese cabbage and tofu stewed vermicelli. Li Lanzhen also made stews with wide noodles and meat, spicy and sour vermicelli.

General Qi enjoyed the meal very much and kept praising Li Lanzhen, saying that the vermicelli was really delicious.

When he came today, he specially brought the cook from the army with him, so that he could see how to make delicious vermicelli and teach everyone when he returned to the barracks.

Let all the soldiers in the barracks eat dishes made with vermicelli.

After seeing off the guests, Han Mingjiang drank a little too much today, but not to the point of being drunk. He had a sweet, silly smile on his face and kept talking.

"Grow up quickly, my girl, so that Daddy can take you to ride a horse!"

Shui Nizi was so angry that she slapped him twice, took the child away and stopped him from holding him.

"Don't let the girl stink up after drinking some wine. Go to bed quickly."

Li Lanzhen picked up Tiantian and said to Xuanshen who was sitting next to her.

"Xuan Shen, please take my granddaughter's pulse and see how she is doing.

Xuan Shen took the child's pulse carefully, then checked the child's hands and feet, and laughed.

"Auntie, Tiantian is very healthy, don't worry."

I heard several adults around Tiantian laughing happily.

Li Lanzhen looked at Xue Nizi and said, "Nizi, take Tiantian back with mother.

Life will be better back in Peach Blossom Land, but conditions here are still a bit difficult.

Go back and take good care of yourself for a year. If you want to come again, come back.

Han Mingjiang really wanted his wife and daughter to stay, but he felt that his mother was right.

Ever since my daughter-in-law came here, I have been busy and tired.

He knew that his wife had given so much, first and foremost, to make his life better, so he spoke up.

"Nizi, you can go back with mom. I will go back to see you when I have my day off next year. If you want to come, come with me."

Xue Nizi thought about it and decided that it would be a good idea to go back and raise the child and take care of her own health.

But after he left, Han Mingjiang couldn't have a hot meal and no one cared about his health.

Once he went out on a mission and when he came back his body was covered in blood.

She was so scared that she kept crying, and the wound on her chest took more than a month to heal.

Xue Nizi was very scared and wanted to stay by his side and watch over him. Her eldest son was also there.

She hugged Tiantian's arms tightly and said to Li Lanzhen with a smile.

"Mom, I won't go back. I'll stay here with Han Mingjiang and Han Yisong."

After saying that, he looked at Han Yibai who was looking at him with his dark eyes open, and his eyes became hot.

"Son, do you want to stay here, or do you want to go back with grandma?"

Han Yibai was very conflicted. It was very difficult to ask such a young child to make a decision.

He wanted to stay here to accompany his younger brother, mother, and older brothers and sisters, but he knew that he didn't like martial arts. He just liked reading and wanted to be like his uncle and become the top scholar.

After thinking for a long time, he looked up and saw everyone speaking.

"Mother, I'd better go back with grandma. I still have a lot of study to do. Master Xu said that he would let me take a test next year to see if I can pass the examination.

Also, grandma is lonely, I want to be with her and take care of her on your behalf."

When Han Mingjiang heard his son say this, his eyes turned red. He hugged Han Yibai and kissed him, holding him in his arms without letting go.
