After I traveled through the book, I fought back in the Hou Mansion

Ye Yunzhou led her all the way, crossing two alleys horizontally, and came to a dilapidated gate. The door panel of the gate was rotten in some places, and the paint on it was peeling off, revealing the wooden boards inside that were eroded by time.

A lot of the wall paint on both sides of the gate has peeled off, and there are a few unknown weeds growing in the corners, swaying gently in the breeze.

Luo Shuiyao followed him here and looked around carefully. She thought that this might be a courtyard where ordinary civilians lived. Looking up, she saw a plaque on the door with a few large characters written on it. Perhaps because of the long time, the characters were extremely blurred.

When I got closer, I could only vaguely see a few small words, "Yang Wei Escort Agency".

Ye Yunzhou nodded at her, then walked forward and knocked on the door gently.

"I'm coming," a response came from the yard. After a long while, the sound of footsteps of someone coming was heard.

With a "click" sound, the door opened.

When the man saw Ye Yunzhou, his eyes lit up instantly: "Major General, how come you have time to come here today?"

Ye Yunzhou stepped forward, helped him open another door, and said, "I brought a friend here today."

"Is Yang Wei here?"

The man nodded repeatedly: "Yes, yes, we have no work these days, we are all resting at home."

Ye Yunzhou was tall and the doorway was quite narrow, so he stood firmly blocking the doorway and Luo Shuiyao could not see anything.

Only after he went in did she stick her head out from behind him and look inside.

She was surprised to see that the person who opened the door for them was a man in his fifties.

The man had two wooden sticks tucked under his arms, and his entire left leg was missing.

The man was talking to Ye Yunzhou when he suddenly realized someone was looking at him. He looked over and saw that the person looking at him was a beautiful girl.

He then turned to look at Ye Yunzhou and jokingly said, "When did the young general get married? Why didn't you tell us? We didn't even know. The young general's wife is really beautiful."

Before Luo Shuiyao could refute, she heard another strong voice.

"What nonsense are you talking about? This girl is clearly not even of age yet, and you're here saying things that ruin her reputation," a strong voice came from behind.

Luo Shuiyao looked up and saw a man eight feet tall, strong and bearded walking towards them quickly. If she looked closely, she could see that half of his arm was empty.

Luo Shuiyao's heart tightened. Did this person lose his hand?

A hint of pity unconsciously flashed in her eyes, but she quickly concealed it. She didn't want the other person to notice that she was sympathizing with him and hurt his self-esteem.

Looking at them, Luo Shuiyao already had an idea in her mind. Thinking of Ye Yunzhou's identity, these people were most likely soldiers who had retired from the battlefield.

The injuries on their bodies are the traces of their heroic battles and the price they paid for defending their country.

Luo Shuiyao's heart was full of respect for them. The original curiosity and surprise turned into respect at this moment.

While he was thinking, the man had already strode up to them, saluted Ye Yunzhou, and said, "How are you, Young General?"

"Major General, what brings you here today?"

Ye Yunzhou replied in a steady voice, "Let's go in first."

Yang Wei nodded, looked at Luo Shuiyao, and said softly: "Miss, please."

Luo Shuiyao nodded at him and tried to put on the friendliest smile.

Yang Wei couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, but soon, a simple smile reappeared on his face.

They walked forward together. Ye Yunzhou occasionally chatted with Yang Wei. "How have you been lately?"

Yang Wei nodded: "Everything is fine, don't worry, General."

Ye Yunzhou lowered his eyes and said softly, "Okay."

Then he turned to look at Luo Shuiyao: "Don't be afraid."

Luo Shuiyao followed them with her eyes wide open. When she heard his words, she turned her eyes to look at him woodenly, then smiled: "I'm not afraid."

Ye Yunzhou's eyes were filled with worry, but he didn't say anything.

Yang Wei looked rather rough, but in reality he was extremely considerate. Seeing this, he said to Luo Shuiyao, "Don't worry, young lady. Although we are all men, we are all very polite. If you are afraid of us, we will just stay away from you."

Luo Shuiyao shook her head gently and said, "I'm fine, let's go."

She was not a delicate lady of this era. She had seen all kinds of scenes in modern society and many people with disabilities. She had even witnessed more horrific situations than what she saw before her.

However, she did feel uncomfortable. Just now, a tall man flashed through her mind. The man called her "Ya Ya" affectionately, calling her her daughter.

Luo Shuiyao knew that it was the original owner's father. This thought made her heart surge with complex emotions, including longing, emotion, and more importantly, a sense of confusion about being in this strange world.

After walking a few steps with them, they arrived in front of a house. Luo Shuiyao looked around and found that the yard was surrounded by houses.

Yang Wei led them into the middle room, where they saw a few wooden tables and benches placed randomly. The layout looked like a dining hall.

Just as Luo Shuiyao was about to approach, Yang Wei quickly picked up the cloth and carefully wiped the table and chairs. After wiping, he smiled honestly and said, "Madam, please sit down."

Luo Shuiyao looked at the mottled and worn tables and chairs, whose original colors could no longer be seen, and felt sad. She was afraid that everyone would misunderstand that she was disgusted by the dirt, so she suppressed the emotion and wanted to walk over and sit down, but Ye Yunzhou grabbed her wrist.

Luo Shuiyao looked up in confusion.

Ye Yunzhou said in a gentle voice, "If you don't want to sit, use my clothes as a cushion," and was about to pull off his coat.

Luo Shuiyao hurriedly pulled him back, "No, this is fine."

Seeing her depressed expression, Ye Yunzhou pursed his lips, feeling a little regretful that he should not have brought her here.

Seeing this, Yang Wei's face flashed with embarrassment, and he hurriedly said, "Please sit down first. I'll bring you two bowls of water."

Having said that, he turned and walked outside.

Luo Shuiyao looked up and saw Ye Yunzhou looking at her with concern. She regretted being so sentimental, so she smiled at him and said, "I'm really fine. You don't have to worry about me. I don't dislike anything."

Then she turned her gaze to the old man who had been standing quietly beside her and said, "Uncle, why don't you sit down? It must be painful for you to lean on the stick like this!" Then she went forward to help him.

The old man supported himself with a wooden stick and nimbly jumped back twice to avoid Luo Shuiyao's hand. "Girl, please don't touch me. I'm an old man, dirty and smelly. Be careful not to dirty your hands."

Luo Shuiyao froze her hands in mid-air, looked into the old man's eyes and said seriously, "It's not dirty. You are the cleanest people in the world. How could I dislike you being dirty? Please sit down."
