After traveling through time, the adults were completely in my hands

Time flies. Three months have passed in a blink of an eye. Pei Shaofeng's ankle has recovered as before. From the initial slow steps, he can now walk like an arrow.

During these three months, Jindou told Pei Shaofeng stories every day. When they were tired, they played cards together. When Pei Shaofeng was able to go out, Jindou accompanied him for a walk in the mansion.

Of course, Jindou also had his three meals a day in the general's mansion. Pei Shaofeng especially liked to watch Jindou eat. It seemed that no matter what kind of food Jindou ate, it tasted extremely sweet and he looked very satisfied. Pei Shaofeng often couldn't help but eat a lot more.

With Jindou by his side, Pei Shaofeng lived a very happy life every day, even forgetting many things, until one day, he received a letter from his father in southern Xinjiang.

When his eyes recovered, Pei Shaofeng wrote a letter to inform his father, who was naturally extremely happy.

In this family letter, his father only asked about his health and did not say anything else, but Pei Shaofeng knew that he should return to southern Xinjiang. As a general, the battlefield and the military camp were where he should go.

At night, Pei Shaofeng lay in bed, tossing and turning. For the first time in his life, he felt reluctant to leave the capital.

When he arrived in southern Xinjiang, no one told him stories about monsters and ghosts anymore, and no one played cards with him or stuck notes on his face. Thinking of this, Pei Shaofeng suddenly felt a little sad.

Oh, how great it would be if Jindou was a girl. Then he could marry her and live with her forever. Pei Shaofeng had never thought about getting married before, but recently, this idea kept coming to his mind.

In the meeting room of the Jinyiwei official office, a servant from the Duke of Dingguo's mansion said to Wei Qing respectfully, "Second Young Master, the mistress has asked you to return today."

Why did he ask himself to go back? Wei Qing frowned slightly, thought for a moment, and finally remembered that today was his birthday.

Wei Qing never cared about his birthday, but his mother always insisted on preparing a good birthday for him.

Perhaps, his mother also felt that she was about to die, Wei Qing thought with some self-mockery.

******

At the Mansion of Duke Dingguo, Lady Xu, the wife of Duke Dingguo, in order to take care of the old lady, specifically instructed the servants to set up the banquet in the old lady's courtyard, so that the old lady would not have to run errands back and forth.

The brothers Wei Yizhao and Wei Yizhong knew that their uncle would be back today, so they had been waiting at the gate of the mansion long ago. When they saw Wei Qing riding his horse towards them from afar, the two brothers hurried to meet him, shouting "Uncle, Uncle".

When Wei Qing saw his two nephews running towards him, he quickly pulled the reins to stop the horse, dismounted, and handed the reins to a servant beside him. The servant then picked up his two nephews, one on each side.

"How are you? Have you been obedient these days?" Wei Qing asked as usual.

The two children nodded together. As they were talking, they arrived at the mansion and Wei Lang greeted them with a smile.

"Brother!" Wei Qing called out. Wei Lang nodded and said to the two children, "Come down quickly. Don't tire your uncle out."

Upon hearing his father speak, Wei Yizhao hurriedly broke free from his uncle's arms, but Wei Yizhong hugged Wei Qing's neck tightly, looking reluctant to get down.

"When you were not at home, these two brothers talked about you a lot," Wei Lang said with a smile.

He was also a little puzzled. Wei Qing was not often at home and had few opportunities to meet the two children. Moreover, Wei Qing was dull and taciturn, but the two children liked their uncle very much.

When Wei Qing was not at home, the two children would talk about him several times a day, and as soon as Wei Qing came back, the two children would stick to Wei Qing and ignore him, their father.

"Today, mother specially asked for the banquet to be held in grandma's yard so that grandma doesn't have to run errands back and forth." Wei Lang said with a smile.

Wei Qing felt a headache when he thought of his grandmother's nagging, and he followed his elder brother to his grandmother's yard.

In the old lady's room, she was very happy to see the Wei Lang brothers coming in with their two children. Several people paid their respects to the old lady, and the two children wanted to take their uncle out to play.

Wei Lang knew that Wei Qing was not often at home, and his grandmother must want to talk to Wei Qing, so she pulled the two children out, one in each hand.

"Come here, come to grandma and let her take a good look at you!" The old lady waved to Wei Qing. Wei Qing quickly stood up, walked to the old lady, and knelt down again.

The old lady took Wei Qing's hand and looked at him carefully. "Look, you've lost weight again, my dear grandson. You've become another year older after your birthday. When can you bring your granddaughter-in-law back to me?"

This was about to start again. Wei Qing was having a headache when the Crown Prince's wife, Yang, walked in: "Uncle, Grandmother, let's go out for dinner."

As she spoke, Yang walked over and together with Madam Liu who was beside the old lady, helped the old lady up.

Wei Qing also felt as if he had been pardoned. He quickly stood up and followed the others out.

Duke Dingguo's wife, Xu, did not invite outsiders to Wei Qing's birthday party. Thinking that her youngest son would be one year closer to thirty after his birthday, Xu felt sad, but she could not show it and could only feel sad in secret.

Wei Qing, looking at the table full of delicious food, had no appetite at all.

When the maid brought the longevity noodles, Wei Qing couldn't help but think of Pei Shaofeng's birthday, the bowl of noodles made by Jindou, and the birthday song sung by Jindou. The song was really beautiful, but it was a pity that it was not sung for him.

"Uncle, uncle!" A shout startled Wei Qing. When he came to his senses, he found that it was Wei Yizhong who was calling him. When he looked up again, he found that everyone at the table was looking at him.

"Uncle, what were you thinking about just now?" Wei Yizhong asked, looking up.

Wei Qing blushed and tried to cover up by holding Wei Yizhong on his lap: "Come, uncle will pick up something delicious for you."

Looking at her uncle's red face, Yang couldn't help but feel thoughtful.

After the meal, when everyone had left, Yang went to her mother-in-law Xu's room.

"Mother," Yang called out.

At this time, Xu was wiping her tears alone in the room. When she saw her eldest daughter-in-law come in, she quickly wiped her eyes and said, "Sit down."

"Mother, I think my uncle has a girl he likes," Yang said after sitting down.

When Xu heard this, she was surprised and delighted, and asked hurriedly, "How did you know?"

"Mother, look at my uncle today. He was so distracted while eating. It's obvious that he was missing some girl. And look, when I asked him about it today, he blushed. When have we ever seen him blush before?"

After hearing what her eldest daughter-in-law said, Xu thought about it and agreed. However, which girl did he like?

Seeing that her mother-in-law was a little anxious, Yang hurriedly comforted her: "Mother, don't worry, I will ask my husband to find the Jinyiwei he is familiar with and ask around, and we will know the answer." There are some children from aristocratic families in the Jinyiwei, and Wei Lang also knows them.

When Xu heard this, she hurriedly urged, "Okay, then ask Wei Lang to find out quickly."
