At the beginning, everything went smoothly. The first battle was won, Marquis Wu'an recovered from his serious injuries, and the Lu brothers had no conflicts with the soldiers in the army. Lu Mingyun even sent back a message saying that he had successfully destroyed that army.

But the situation suddenly changed. A heavy snow suddenly fell in the northwest, and the troops led by Lu Mingyun suddenly lost their trace and contact.

According to the route, they should have returned to the base camp long ago, but there was no sign of anyone.

The winter in the northwest is cold, with biting winds and snow. If you don't handle it properly or lack clothes and food, it is impossible to survive in the heavy snow.

“…Jingxin may have already…” Zuo Zheng frowned and didn’t finish his words.

Li Mofu frowned, not knowing what he was thinking. Seeing this, Zuo Zheng blinked his red eyes hard, raised his hand and patted Li Mofu's shoulder, comforting him, "It's just speculation now, don't be too sad."

Li Mofu just nodded.

Zuo Zheng didn't know what to say for a moment. He licked his lips nervously, cursing Zhao Xu in his heart for deserting the battlefield. "Maybe this is just a misunderstanding. I don't think Jingxin will die so easily, right? Hahaha..."

"Yeah." Li Mofu responded.

Zuo Zheng paused for a moment, "You, don't be too sad."

"I'm not sad." Li Mofu took a deep breath and said.

Zuo Zheng was even more at a loss for words. He glanced at Li Mofu's face, which was expressionless and unclear. "Are you okay?"

Li Mofu glanced at him in confusion. "Didn't you say that yourself? Maybe it was a misunderstanding?"

“…” Zuo Zheng suddenly wanted to kill himself for speaking.

"And I want to see him alive or dead," Li Mofu shrugged and shook Zuo Zheng's hand away. "I want to see his body before I believe he's dead."

Zuo Zheng opened his mouth, but couldn't say anything.

"There's no need to hide this kind of thing from me. The relationship between him and me is not as deep as you think. I can accept the news that you can accept." Li Mofu said with a curl of his lips.

Zuo Zheng stared at Li Mofu without saying anything.

"It's too cold outside. I'll go back first. Remember to tell me if you have any new news next time." Li Mofu waved his hand and turned away.

After a while, Li Mofu's figure disappeared around the corner. Zuo Zheng looked at him, sighed lightly, then turned and walked to the other side.

"How was it? Did you tell him?"

Zhao Xu, who was running away, had been hiding behind the wall at the other corner. When he saw Zuo Zheng coming, he jumped out and asked.

Zuo Zheng looked at Zhao Xu speechlessly. He wanted to scold him but couldn't muster the energy. "I said..."

"Is he okay?" Zhao Xu asked.

Zuo Zheng gave a wry smile, "He said he was fine, but when he laughed I felt like crying."

"..." Zhao Xu stopped talking.

Zuo Zheng didn't know what to say anymore, and the two of them just left in silence.

On the other side, Li Mofu almost shed tears. After all, it was normal for a kind and emotional person like him to shed tears.

He secretly shed a lot of tears the night Nanny Liang died.

When he heard that Lu Mingyun might be dead, he didn't feel anything at first, but it was different when he opened his mouth. His heart suddenly felt sour and tears began to well up in his eyes.

But he felt much better after shutting his mouth. He turned around and took a few steps when his eyes felt cold and Li Mofu held back the tears.

Why are you crying? If you cry in such a cold day, your tears will turn into ice.

Besides, he hadn't seen Lu Mingyun's body, so it wouldn't be too late to cry after he saw it.

On the fourth day after learning the news, Wang Ruiyan reached the days of delivery. She began to feel frequent stomach pains and finally gave birth on the fifth day.

Wang Ruiyan was giving birth in the house, Li Mofu was waiting outside with Guozi, and Xiaoqi was also waiting outside nervously.

The screams in the room made Li Mofu's scalp tingle. He slowly moved away. It was really too scary.

"Oh my God, oh my God..." Xiao Qi was also scared. He bit his thumb and went to look for Li Mofu, only to find that Li Mofu had retreated far away.

"What are you doing? Running so far." Xiao Qi said speechlessly.

Li Mofu laughed, but before he could say anything, Wang Ruiyan's screams were heard from the room again.

However, Wang Ruiyan was very hardworking. After about an hour and a half, the child was born and the sound of the baby crying could be heard.

"Oh my God..." Li Mofu sighed.

In the afternoon of the end of December, Wang Ruiyan gave birth to a girl, weighing less than five kilograms, but very healthy. Her cry was very loud and powerful.

On that day, Li Mofu, Guozi and Xiaoqi did not see the child, but the old lady went to take a look at him with trembling hands.

It was not until seven or eight days later, during the Chinese New Year, that Li Mofu saw the somewhat ugly baby.

The chubby, white, and hairy babies in cartoons and comics are all lies. The bald babies that are neither red nor white are normal.

However, Wang Ruiyan didn't think her daughter was ugly at all. She always praised her daughter's beauty to Li Mofu.

It turns out that parents all have filters, Li Mofu muttered to himself.

The Zhao family is very happy about the arrival of the newborn, but in a snowy mountain far away in the northwest border, the soldiers are missing their hometown because of the New Year.

Lu Mingyun sat in the tent staring at the map in a daze. Because of the heavy snow, many places were impassable, so they had no choice but to change the route, but after walking for a while, they found that this road had also collapsed.

"Oh." Lu Mingyun had a headache.

The winter in the northwest has made Lu Mingyun's skin rough and cracked. He doesn't even shave his beard now. It can keep him warm, but shaving with a knife can easily cut his skin.

"Young Master, the wine is hot. Would you like to drink some?" Mo Zhu's face was also rougher and redder.

"Well, let's put it here. Has the snow stopped outside?" Lu Mingyun asked.

Mo Zhu shook his head, "Not yet."
