Armed with a machete and a gun, armed with a system, they fled the famine.

my daughter?

Yang Sanlang looked at Zhao Yan with great surprise.

He remembered that on his wedding day, he was conscripted to perform forced labor, and he and Zhao Yan... they didn't even share a bed...

Where did he get his daughter?

Could it be that Zhao Yan... she cheated on her husband?

She's been gone for years without a word to her family, and you still dare to doubt her?

Zhao Yan glared at Yang Sanlang, feeling sorry for the original owner of this body.

"Yes, I found Xiaomi on the mountain and raised her as my daughter."

“Your mother thought you were gone, so she beat and scolded me and Xiaomi all the time, and didn’t feed us properly. She just made us do chores for the family. We had already severed ties with your Yang family when we left. If you don’t want that, we can get a divorce.”

After saying all this in one breath, Zhao Yan picked up her daughter and left the cave.

Honestly, did she think she wanted to be with him? If it weren't for Xiaomi, she would have killed him yesterday!

"Oh dear, look at you all, you finally got together, what's all this commotion now?"

Tian Xiu'e twisted her hands helplessly and said to Yang Sanlang, "Sanlang, Yan'er has had a hard time these past few years. Please don't listen to her and divorce her. She was just saying that in anger. Xiao Mi is very well-behaved and not that ignorant child."

Yang Sanlang paused for a moment, then nodded with a smile.

"Yes, Sister Tian, ​​I won't divorce her, don't worry."

He was fortunate to survive and learned that he had a daughter, though she was adopted, he was still grateful.

Whether she was his silly wife in the past or Zhao Yan who is no longer silly now, since she married him, she is his wife, and he will not let her leave.

From what she said, it seems that she and Xiaomi have severed ties with the Yang family?

Ha ha.

It's better that it's broken.

He had long wanted to get rid of that family.

Or rather, that wasn't his home at all.

"That's fine, that's fine."

Tian Xiu'e felt much relieved, but she still couldn't take a step.

"Um... Sanlang, you and Chen An served corvée labor together with the villagers back then, do you know... where your brother Chen An is now?"

She asked it.

Unable to contain her anxiety any longer, she finally asked the question.

There are only two possible outcomes: alive or dead.

Tian Xiu'e's palms were sweaty as she anxiously awaited the final verdict.

When Chen Qingjiao woke up and came over, she saw that her mother's forehead was covered in fine cold sweat, and she was so frightened that she grabbed her mother's arm.

"Mom, what's wrong with you?"

"Shh-"

Tian Xiu'e gestured to her daughter to be quiet.

Chen Qingjiao then noticed that there was a person lying on the ground. She turned around and hid behind her mother, only showing her eyes to glance at Yang Sanlang from time to time.

Yang Sanlang smiled with relief when he saw Chen Qingjiao.

That's great, Chen An's daughter is here too.

“Sister Tian, ​​Brother Chen An… is injured, and I’ve hidden him in a mountain ravine.”

“The mountain pass is quite a distance from here, I’m afraid I can’t get there. Call Uncle Yuangang over later, and I’ll tell him the exact address…”

When Tian Xiue heard that her husband was injured, her heart clenched, but she quickly realized that her husband was still alive.

Tears had long since soaked her cheeks; she held her daughter, trembling all over, unable to calm down for a long time.

Wuwuwu——

Ango is still alive.

It's good that you're alive, it's good that you're alive.

"Sanlang, you lie down first, I'll go and call Uncle Yuan over."

She quickly wiped away her tears and led her daughter out of the cave.

Zhao Yan stood at the cave entrance with her daughter in her hand, listening to what Yang Sanlang said.

When she saw Tian Xiu'e and her daughter come out, she went up to Tian Xiu'e, patted her on the shoulder, and handed her her daughter.

"Sister Tian, ​​I'm going to find someone. Could you keep an eye on Xiaomi for me?"

In terms of physical strength and fighting ability, even Uncle Yuan might not be able to match her.

Moreover, judging from the barbarians they encountered last night, Yang Sanlang and his companions were facing enemies who were not ordinary people, but rather tyrannical and unreasonable barbarians whose strength should not be underestimated.

If she encounters barbarians again, she can use her agility to shake them off.

Moreover, the cave was relatively secluded, so she felt comfortable leaving people there.

Tian Xiu'e knew Zhao Yan was strong, but there were many wild animals in the mountains and forests, and what if she accidentally encountered one...

She doesn't trust anyone else to go.

"Yan'er..."

Tian Xiu'e was conflicted.

Zhao Yan shoved her daughter into her arms without saying a word and stepped into the cave.

Tian Xiu'e sighed and led Zhao Xiaomi to wash her face and have dinner.

Inside the cave, Zhao Yan and Yang Sanlang stared at each other, neither of them saying a word.

Zhao Yan was angry but didn't want to talk about it.

Yang Sanlang didn't know how to explain.

At this moment, Zhao Yunchen brought over his two younger brothers and Yuan Tianbao.

Seeing that Yang Sanlang had woken up, he greeted him politely, "Uncle, you're awake."

Then he turned to Zhao Yunjie and Zhao Yunqi and taught them to greet people, "Yunjie, Yunqi, this is your uncle."

Zhao Yunjie has a sweet tongue; he greeted his uncle with "Hello, Uncle."

Zhao Yunqi, who was usually a man of few words, also greeted him with, "Uncle."

Yuan Tianbao looked at Yang Sanlang, then at the three Zhao brothers, and then at Zhao Yan. His eyes darted around, and he also called out, "Uncle, my name is Yuan Tianbao, and Yuan Yutang is my grandfather."

Yang Sanlang was sitting with his hands supporting him on a straw mat. Seeing that the four boys opposite him were sensible and polite, he smiled kindly at them.

"Are you all hungry? Go wash your face and eat."

"Okay, Uncle."

Zhao Yunchen glanced at Zhao Yan, then led the three boys out of the cave.

Once again, only Zhao Yan and Zhao Yan remained in the cave.

Zhao Yan smiled, looking at Yang Sanlang with a half-smile.

"Didn't you have anything to say to me?"

She was very curious about where he had been all these years.

After disappearing for several years, he suddenly reappeared, and she felt a strong sense of unease.

"Tell me, do you agree to a divorce or what? If you agree..."

"I disagree."

Before Zhao Yan could finish speaking, Yang Sanlang interrupted her coldly, then looked at her with his dark, handsome eyes and said, "I will not divorce you. Regardless of whether you have severed ties with the Yang family or not, I am still your husband, and Xiao Mi is my daughter. We are family."

"So where have you been all these years?"

Zhao Yan stared intently at the man opposite her, not missing a single expression on his face.

Yang Sanlang switched arms to support himself on the ground, hoping to relieve the numbness in his arm.

He took a deep breath and then explained, "You all know that I was forced to do corvée labor with the villagers. But what you don't know is that we weren't actually forced to do corvée labor; we were directly conscripted into private soldiers."

Zhao Yan's brow furrowed slightly. "Private soldiers? Whose private soldiers?"

As far as she knew, the old emperor of the Great Qing Kingdom was still alive, and his sons who stood before him were only one crown prince, one eldest prince, and one fifth prince.

The others are all princesses.

The fifth prince is not yet an adult; the only adult princes are the crown prince and the eldest prince.

They secretly trained private soldiers under the guise of performing corvée labor.

Who has such audacity?

Yang Sanlang narrowed his eyes, and a light shone from them.

He parted his thin lips slightly and slowly uttered two words: "Prince Ning".
