Ch 79: Returning Home
Master Jiang also cared about his reputation, and couldn’t handle family matters in front of the Su siblings no matter what.
He planned to make a decision after taking Jiang Yuming home.
Su Yunyi saw his difficulty, and kindly reminded the three involved parties who were lost in the fog: “Didn’t Master Guoshi say that he already had a solution and wanted you to seek him out again in three days?”
Yes, the matter has already been resolved!
【So what exactly is this family doing? This is a He ending!】
Jiang Yuming stubbornly resisted: “No one cares about my thoughts!”
Master Jiang looked embarrassed, looking at this one and then that one, unable to give up either. But he would always feel indebted for sacrificing his younger son to protect his daughter.
He didn’t dare to speak casually, afraid of provoking his son.
Little Chou Chou was just relying on no one hearing her thoughts to babble energetically.
【Never mind opinions, can we go home first? Do you not want your legs anymore?】
【Children nowadays are just not as steady as I am, making a big fuss and getting a beating. Listen to me, the real heartbreak isn’t making a big fuss, but being treated with indifference. If they panic, you win. 】
Su Yunyi was extremely grateful that only he could hear Little Chou Chou’s thoughts now. If others could hear them too, who knows how many more heartbroken people there would be in the Capital City.
Su Yunyi coughed lightly, interrupting Little Chou Chou’s boundless imagination, and pointed at Jiang Yuming’s leg: “Let’s treat the leg first.”
【Second Brother really understands me!】
Moving Jiang Yuming was a big project. Master Jiang and Su Yunyi were covered in sweat, and Sister Jiang was not to be outdone.
【Try harder!】Little Chou Chou even started crying, 【I’m already sucking in my stomach, how can I still not pick him up?】
【Got it wrong, try again!】
This time she didn’t breathe!
It could be seen that everyone present was embarrassed.
At the critical moment, Deputy General Peng descended from the sky like a heavenly god, “Do you need my help?”
Master Jiang was busy sweating, not yet successfully carrying his son on his back, and was just about to thank Deputy General Peng for his enthusiastic help when he saw the burly man directly bypass their father and son and carefully pick up Little Chou Chou, who was lying there practicing holding her breath.
Wait, are you so nervous just to hold this Little Dot?
Deputy General Peng couldn’t let others take the good fortune. They, as martial generals, killed on the battlefield, committing sins of killing, and they believed most in karmic cycles and fate.
Only Little Chou Chou heard what this uncle, who looked like a Black Bear Demon, was muttering.
“Hold the Lucky Baby, get some good luck, live long.”
【Good eye!】
Su Yunyi curiously glanced at the slightly excited Little Chou Chou, what’s wrong again?
The family didn’t seem to believe that Little Chou Chou was super lucky, which made the Jinli Little Chou Chou very distressed. Now that a discerning uncle had finally arrived, Little Chou Chou would definitely bless him!
Deputy General Peng didn’t know that his actions at this time would win him a chance of survival in the future. He picked up Little Chou Chou, lifted Jiang Yuming with one hand, turned sideways and threw him behind him, scaring Jiang Yuming into tightly hugging his neck.
“Let’s go!”
Little Chou Chou giggled, 【Charge!】
Su Yunyi praised: “Deputy General Peng has good arm strength!”
Master Jiang nodded in agreement: “The Zhuangyuan of the Xuanwen thirty-third year martial arts examination, with strength to uproot mountains and spirit to overwhelm the world, amazing!”
He turned to look at his little daughter, “Does Dad want to carry you?”
Sister Jiang ignored them and followed Deputy General Peng’s pace, leaving in small steps.
Master Jiang sighed in disappointment. Su Yunyi opened his mouth, not knowing how to comfort him, and whispered: “Master Jiang, let’s leave here first and then talk about the rest.”
Deputy General Peng ran so fast with one on his back and one in his arms. By the time Master Jiang and Su Yunyi laboriously got Sister Jiang up the slope, he had already settled Little Chou Chou and Jiang Yuming into the carriage.
The four white horses had strong and powerful limbs, looking a bit like war horses raised in the military camp. The Yun Family Army flag was inserted on the carriage.
“This is the Yun Family’s main general’s carriage!”
◈◈◈
Master Jiang exclaimed, this carriage was bestowed by His Majesty.
Back then, Old General Yun won thirteen major victories against the neighboring country, occupying six of their cities. After returning to the Capital, he was impeached by the officials for riding his horse in the downtown area with no one in sight. His Majesty reprimanded him on the surface but rewarded him in secret, ordering the Ministry of Works to customize this carriage, using war horses to pull the carriage, and allowing him to ride his horse in the downtown area when seeing the Yun Family flag.
“The old general’s granddaughter riding in the old general’s carriage is more than appropriate.” Deputy General Peng didn’t talk nonsense, grabbed Sister Jiang’s collar and stuffed her into the carriage, “Hurry up and leave!”
The old general said in his letter that only Miss Chou Chou could ride in this carriage, they were still taking advantage of it!
Everyone breathed a sigh of relief when Jiang Yuming was found. He was surrounded by several friends, and he choked up several times when talking about falling down the slope outside the city that night. It was too difficult for him!
Deputy General Peng’s face darkened: “You left the city at night? How did you get out?”
Jiang Yuming scratched his head: “Crawled out through the dog hole.”
“Dog hole?!” Deputy General Peng jumped three feet high, his dark face turning green, and turned to leave.
There’s a dog hole in the city gate?!
He patrolled the city every day and didn’t find it. If something happens one day, none of you will survive!
【Hey, why did the kind uncle leave?】
Su Yunyi took the little chubby hand off his face and sighed: “Fortunately, Jiang Yuming reminded him, otherwise Deputy General Peng would have left sooner or later.”
That “leave” would be terrible!
The Jiang family’s affairs were not something they could interfere with. After comforting him in turns, they left one after another.
Master Jiang was preoccupied with this matter and knelt directly in front of the Guoshi Mansion, only to receive one word—wait.
The family was a little at a loss about Sister Jiang’s arrival, especially the two older siblings above her, who didn’t know what attitude to take towards her.
The weak and helpless girl surrounded by people looked pitiful, like a little lamb straying into a pack of wolves.
Jiang Yuming roared to relieve her: “Let her go with me!”
Sister Jiang, who was pointed at: “Me?”
“Yes!” Jiang Yuming was originally the little tyrant of the family, and no one could do anything about him when he went wild, “I’m sharing a life with you, who else would you go with if not me!”
“Hurry up!”
Sister Jiang was born thin and small, but she was not someone to be bullied. She turned Jiang Yuming’s wheelchair and pushed him away according to his instructions.
As for whether the ride was stable or not, that was not her business…
Jiang Yuming: My butt hurts!
The Jiang family spent these three days in torment. This matter even spread to the Imperial Palace, where the nobles were waiting to watch the excitement, and even granted Master Jiang leave so that he could go to the Guoshi Mansion to ask for clarification.
When the three-day appointment arrived, the Jiang family rushed to the Wen Yang Marquis Mansion, picked up Little Chou Chou, and were about to go to the Guoshi Mansion to ask for clarification.
Su Junyao looked at his empty arms and followed, cursing, “What an unreasonable family! What does your request to the Guoshi have to do with my family!”
“Jiang Chunhe, give me back my daughter!”
Little Chou Chou was excited: 【No one can disturb me from watching the fun!】
All the way to the front of the Guoshi Mansion, Yue Wen had been waiting for a long time.
“The three of you, please come in with me.”
Sister Jiang stood next to the Guoshi, and Jiang Yuming also laboriously wheeled his wheelchair over. Only this third person was late to appear.
Yue Wen suddenly realized: “Oh, I forgot she can’t walk yet.”
Little Chou Chou poked her head out: 【Who is it? Is it a cripple?】
