The young couple from the farm fights back

Chapter 201 The Cheng Family Goes to Beijing

As the times change, the news that the Xiao family has become the new generation of royal family in the Daqian Dynasty has gradually spread to the land of China. The generals guarding the city who received the order from the capital have already been ready to go.

The military generals waiting to take over will then bring their wives and children back to Beijing to report on their work, ultimately securing a good future for their families in this chaotic world.

Jiang Li received the news earlier than Yanzhou City. She had been corresponding with Zhou Chunfeng for many years, and both of them had guards by their side who sent express horses to deliver the correspondence.

After reading the letter, Jiang Li's eyes were red with excitement and she couldn't calm down for a long time.

After twelve years of ups and downs, we finally received exciting news.

Zhou Chunfeng completed his mission since joining the army, reached the height of his dream, and fulfilled his promise to her. Jiang Li was happy for him.

Next, she and her child waited patiently for Zhou Chunfeng to come and reunite with them.

Therefore, matters on Changsheng Island need to be carefully arranged.

Jiang Li immediately wrote a letter and sent someone to deliver it to Dashuan, instructing him to stay in Yanzhou City and take charge of the Chamber of Commerce's affairs in the future.

As early as half a year ago, Jiang Li had passed the position of island master to Yi An, who was only twelve years old, to fulfill the instructions in the old island master's last letter.

Although Yi'an is young, he has a calm temperament, a unique way of doing things and is independent-minded.

In recent years, Jiang Li has strengthened the training of the island's tribesmen guards, hoping that Yi'an will have more capable people to protect him in the future.

As for this trip to the capital, Jiang Li respects the child's choice. If Yi'an is willing, he will go to the capital with them first.

After all, Changsheng Island is now heavily guarded, and leaving a few managers on the island to watch over it will prevent any trouble.

Furthermore, Zhou Chunfeng's letter mentioned the new imperial examinations that would begin in the spring of next year. Jiang Li wanted Yiheng to participate in the test. His eldest son was already quite old, and even if he failed the first time, he would still gain experience.

The news of Daqing's decline was good news for the people of Changsheng Island. They wanted to kill pigs and ducks to celebrate and avenge their ancestors of Daning.

A few days later, Liang went to Changsheng Island because Deputy General Cheng received an imperial decree to return to Beijing, and the Cheng family would have to set off back to Beijing soon.

Cheng Yi, who had been missing for a long time, became a source of worry for Liang, and she became increasingly sad, thin and haggard.

"Don't be discouraged, sister. The troops we sent out have been searching along the way. I believe we will get news of Sister Yi soon. We must think positively. Besides, Sister Yi has Madam Du by her side. She will definitely find a way to help her out of this predicament."

Nanny Du was a kind-hearted and loyal servant. According to Luhuan, she was unwilling to collude with Cheng Hua to murder the master of the mansion, and ended up being targeted by Madam Cheng and her grandson.

Liang secretly wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes and nodded with all her strength: "Madam Li is right. I pray to the Buddha and Bodhisattva every day, hoping that the gods will protect my child."

As for her divorce from Cheng Yi Zhong, Liang believed that as long as she returned to the capital, the children's uncle would be able to seek justice for them.

"I came to the island this time to ask Madam Li if she would like to return to the capital with us. That way, we can have someone to take care of her on the way."

Jiang Li patted the back of Liang's hand with a faint smile and said, "I appreciate your kindness, sister. However, I still have some trivial matters to take care of on the island, so I will go to the capital later to meet you."

Liang nodded in understanding. It made sense. Marquis Zhou would definitely come to pick up Lady Li in person.

Thinking about the men in other families and then thinking about the troubles in her own family, Liang felt that everyone's life is determined by God.

"Okay, I'll wait for you in Beijing."

"it is good."

Jiang Li knew that she was upset and tried to avoid the topic of children as much as possible.

Cheng Jin will leave Changsheng Island with his mother Liang today. To this end, he first bids farewell to Mr. Xiao and thanks him for his careful teachings over the years.

Mr. Xiao, with his hair now covered in silver, accepted the teacup offered by his student and said with great satisfaction: "Well, I hope that you will be able to put your knowledge into practice, pass the imperial examinations, and achieve great success in your career."

Cheng Jin bowed respectfully and said, "Yes, sir. I will definitely remember your teachings."

Mr. Xiao nodded with satisfaction, took a sip of tea, and looked up at the bright sky outside the house. It was a sunny and windy day, and the scenery was spring.

He is old and can't walk anymore.

Mr. Xiao believes that one day the world will be as Mr. Xiao wished, with people enjoying delicious food, beautiful clothes, safe homes and happy customs!

Nearing evening, Cheng Jinfang returned to Zhuxinyuan. Yiheng and his brothers had asked the kitchen to prepare wine and food early. They wanted to give Brother Jin a good farewell party tonight.

They all knew that life was long and they would be able to reunite in Beijing soon.

But once you arrive in the capital, how can you feel as free and happy as you did on Changsheng Island?

As if unknowingly, this island of immortality has become a golden cage in the children's minds. They are like canaries kept in a cage, ignorant of the world and enjoying a comfortable life.

Once you leave this island, many things will be beyond your control.

When Uncle Zhou and Aunt Hu learned that Zhou Chunfeng had been personally conferred the high title of Marquis by the Emperor, they were so happy that they set up an altar in their own yard to pray for the Zhou ancestors' blessing.

The two old men hurriedly slaughtered the pig and made sausages for Zhou Chunfeng's favorite sausages, waiting for him to come back.

A while ago, Dashuan went to a shop in Jingzhou, Central Plains to do business. After receiving the news, he immediately rushed back to Yanzhou City and took his wife and children back to Changsheng Island.

More than ten years have passed, and the young man back then has become a seasoned and mature shopkeeper. He is calm in his speech and behavior. He is happy for his eldest brother's family and his eyes are almost smiling into slits.

"Don't worry, sister-in-law. I'll leave the Chamber of Commerce's affairs to you, brother."

Jiang Li naturally trusted the people he had personally trained, and then carefully instructed the Chamber of Commerce on the future development direction: "[Ningzihao] is now stable. We will gradually expand to the capital based on the existing farm, grain store, bamboo paper workshop, and medicine shop."

Dashuan smiled happily and nodded repeatedly: "Okay, sister-in-law, I will do as you say later."

Zhou Dashuan thought that he could become a well-known businessman in his lifetime, thanks to the help of his elder brother and sister-in-law.

Looking back, he was just a farmer who worked in the fields, facing the earth and back to the sky. Now that his elder brother and sister-in-law are in power, their family also enjoys the same fortune.

As the Cheng family left Yanzhou City, Jiang Li calmed down and waited for someone's return. After the busy farming season, she sewed clothes for Zhou Chunfeng in the house.

Over the years, Jiang Li often made a few new sets of clothes for Zhou Chunfeng for the changing seasons and sent them to the base along with the letters he brought.

"Mother~"

That day, Sister Lan came to the main hall bedroom in high spirits, holding a bunch of furry knee pads and gloves in her arms.

Jiang Li stopped sewing, looked up, and there was a soft smile in her eyes.

"Mom, I made knee pads and gloves for Dad. Can you help me take a look and see if they are good?"

"Good." Jiang Li took the knee pads and gloves from her daughter, her face full of appreciation. "Not bad, the stitching is very delicate. Sister Lan's craftsmanship has improved a lot recently."

Lan Jie'er, who was praised, smiled happily: "Thank you, mother. Mother said it's good. Dad will definitely like it."

Jiang Li smiled and rubbed the little girl's cheek, thinking, how could I not like her.

In every letter from the child's father, seven or eight out of ten sentences are about his little cotton-padded jacket, as if he is afraid that the child does not know that he has such a father.
