Dressed as a farmer's widow, she brought her daughter to stock up on food and reached the top

After dinner, the rain gradually stopped and the children were busy with their own things.

Chen Zexi sat under the eaves with a book and read it seriously.

Little Laoqi and other friends were chasing and playing in the yard, laughing all the time.

Taohua and Shiliu were cleaning the dishes in the house, whispering to each other while they worked.

"Second sister, that purse on your waist is so beautiful. Was it given to you by Master Luo?"

"Um……"

Shi Liu's face flushed slightly, revealing a girl's shyness.

Afan helped sweep the water out of the yard. The sun shone through the clouds, filling the whole yard with warmth and vitality.

Knock, knock, knock. There was a rapid knock on the door, followed by the voice of Xiao Laoliu.

"Open the door quickly, I'm back!" Everyone was surprised when they heard it.

Afan was the first to rush over and open the door: "Little Six!"

Little Six threw himself into Afan's arms: "Brother Afan!"

Everyone gathered around, their faces filled with joy.

Taohua was so excited that she burst into tears: "You are finally back!"

Chen Zexi patted Xiao Laoliu's shoulder and said, "I'm glad you're back, I'm glad you're back!"

Just as the child was immersed in the joy of reunion, a tall figure walked into the gate. The man stood in front of them like a mighty mountain, blocking the sun's rays.

Xiao Laoliu quickly introduced, "This is General Zhenwei. He and his wife saved me."

The children opened their mouths in surprise and stared blankly at the majestic general.

General Zhenwei smiled slightly, but his eyes were full of majesty.

Taohua bravely stepped forward and saluted: "General, thank you for saving Xiao Laoliu. Please come in."

General Zhenwei nodded: "No need to be so polite."

Xiao Laoliu said excitedly: "General Zhenwei is amazing. He caught the bad guys in just two moves. And his wife is also super powerful."

As Xiao Laoliu was speaking, a heroic woman walked in. The woman had a pretty face, but she exuded a majestic aura all over her body.

The children's attention was instantly drawn to it.

Xiao Laoliu hurriedly introduced: "This is the general's wife, Hua Qingcheng."

Hua Qingcheng nodded slightly: "Hello, children." Her voice was crisp and powerful.

When the couple walked into the yard, the first thing they saw was twelve magnificent brick houses. This meant that each of the children had a room of his or her own. The owner of the house must be a very capable person to have earned such a large fortune.

Everything is in order when the adults are not at home.

Hua Qingcheng couldn't help but sigh: "These children are really sensible."

Wu Yong also nodded: "Yes, it can be seen that they have taken good care of this place."

They looked around the yard. The neatly arranged farm tools in the corner and the clean clothes hanging on the clothesline all showed the children's diligence and self-discipline.

At this time, Xiao Laoliu came over and said, "Uncle, Madam, come in and sit down."

Wu Yong and Hua Qingcheng followed Xiao Laoliu and felt more admiration for these children.

Xiao Laoliu warmly invited the two into the house. Shiliu went to make tea, and Guihua went to bring snacks.

General Zhenwei Wu Yong and Hua Qingcheng sat down in the house and looked around.

Taohua stood aside nervously. After a while, Shiliu came in with tea. "General, Madam, please have some tea."

Guihua also put the snacks on the table. General Zhenwei picked up the teacup and took a sip: "Thank you."

Hua Qingcheng looked at the children with a smile, and her gaze finally stopped in front of Afan, who looked like a small mountain.

A hint of surprise flashed in her eyes. This child and Brother Yong were just like two peas in a pod. "This child is so strong."

Afan felt a little embarrassed by being stared at and scratched his head.

After receiving the information from Hua Qingcheng, Wu Yong also looked at Afan. He nodded slightly and responded to Hua Qingcheng.

Wu Yong: It should be this child.

A hint of excitement flashed in Hua Qingcheng's eyes. They could meet each other but could not recognize each other.

Wu Yong pondered for a moment, and their eyes fell on Afan again, with a thousand thoughts in their minds.

Wu Yong asked, "You're the Afan that Xiao Laoliu often mentioned, right? How old are you this year? Have you always been in the frontier?"

Afan replied nervously, "Your Excellency, I am eleven years old and have always lived with my grandmother in the outskirts of the Great Wall.

When my grandma died, she told me about my past life. She picked me up on the battlefield and discovered that I was wearing a jade pendant around my neck.

I think it was left to me by my parents as a token of recognition."

Xiao Laoliu took off the jade pendant from his neck, placed it in Wu Yong's hand, and said, "Uncle, you are very knowledgeable. Have you ever seen a jade pendant like this?"

Wu Yong's thoughts were complicated and his heart felt like it was being cut by a knife. This jade pendant was only owned by the children of his Wu family. There was a bright moon engraved on the back of the jade pendant in his hand. This belonged to his son.

He couldn't recognize his son in front of him. After holding it in for a long time, he bit his back teeth and could only spit out a few words: "I've never seen him." His face was expressionless, but his heart was bleeding.

Xiao Laoliu showed a look of disappointment on his face: "Oh, I thought you would know." Then he returned the jade pendant to Afan.

Hua Qingcheng quickly comforted: "Don't be discouraged, we will figure it out eventually."

Wu Yong turned his head away, trying hard to hold back his tears. Afan noticed that something was wrong with Wu Yong and looked at him in confusion. The room fell into a brief silence and the atmosphere became increasingly heavy.

Wu Yong returned to his thoughts and nodded heavily: "Well, you look like a strong kid."

Hua Qingcheng noticed Afan's uneasiness and said gently, "Afan, don't be afraid. We have no ill intentions. Young men should be strong and sturdy like you.

A good man should be willing to serve his country, but he cannot do that without a strong body."

Afan pursed his lips and said, "Thank you, sir and madam."

At this moment, the atmosphere in the room was somewhat subtle.

At this time, the knock on the door sounded again, and Xiuying's voice came from outside the yard. Xiuying came back, and the daughters ran out excitedly and opened the door.

"It's mother who's back!"

"Auntie!"

Xiuying stretched out her arms and embraced the children with her fragile body.

Her eyes were full of love and her voice was gentle: "My children, mother misses you so much."

The children snuggled up to her, feeling their mother's warmth. Xiuying gently stroked their heads and asked, "Have you been good these days?"

The children answered in unison: "Good boy!" Xiuying smiled with relief.

Seeing Xiao Laoliu, Xiuying picked her up and said, "My child, you have suffered so much these days. It's all my fault. I failed to protect you."

Little Laoliu shook his head sensibly: "Mom, I don't blame you. I'm fine."

Tears welled up in Xiuying's eyes: "It's all my fault. I will never let you leave my side again."

The other children came over to comfort her: "Mom, don't be sad, it's good that little Laoliu is back."

Xiuying wiped her tears and said, "Yes, it's good that you're back, it's good that you're back."
