Old Mrs. Xia didn't know whether to laugh or cry. This child was too cunning.
"Grandma, you have to go."
[Grandpa Wei has waited for you for so long, isn't it worth it for you to give him a title? ]
The more she talked, the more outrageous it became. Old Lady Xia glared at her and said, "You little girl!"
Xia Jinxiu also advised, "Mom, you have to go and let those old ladies meet Uncle Wei. Zhi, remember to tell everyone what your Grandpa Wei does! Do you understand?"
Xia Zhiliao nodded vigorously and said loudly: "I know, my grandfather Wei is a great general."
General Wei looked at his mothers and smiled. Although happiness came many years late, it finally came.
"Let's go, Sister Qing. I miss some of the old people in the village too. How is Brother Dongzi, who used to chop wood with me, doing?"
"He has passed away." Old Lady Xia said, "More than ten years ago, he died of illness."
General Wei couldn't help but sigh and felt that he should cherish the present.
Xia Zhi held the two old people's hands on each side and went out happily.
None of the Xia brothers and sisters went out today, after all, there were customers at home.
"Second brother, our mother is so old, how can she become a general's wife?" Xia Jinxiu said with a smile: "I think the most capable person in our family is our mother."
"Girl, you even make fun of your mother." Xia Jinyu glared at him.
"I'm telling the truth. Didn't Uncle Wei say when he would take our mother away?"
"Yes, isn't our mother going to the capital?" Xia Jinheng also asked.
Because the brother and sister were not at home the night before, they did not know about General Wei's decision.
Xia Jinjun shook his head, "Our mother said she didn't want to go to the capital, so Uncle Wei retired and came back to live with us."
"Ah?" Xia Jinxiu was stunned. "Come to our countryside? Uncle Wei really loves our mother!"
Even young people may not be able to do it. She is really envious of her mother more and more.
To be able to have the special affection of such a man.
She is no match for any young girl.
Lei Jiuniang didn't know the Xia family's secret, she was just surprised, "Is mother not going to the capital because she can't bear to leave us? In fact, it's not impossible for us to go to the capital with mother. We can live on our own and we are not parasites relying on Uncle Wei.
Xia Jinheng's face changed slightly, "You don't understand, this... Actually... Hey, the capital city may not be very good, isn't it quite comfortable here?"
"Yes, yes, yes." Xia Jinjun agreed, and so did the others.
Cheng Han has always been good-tempered. She has no thoughts on such matters and does not get involved.
Lei Jiuniang noticed that the Xia family's behavior was a little strange, but she couldn't think of it that way.
"That's true, but... never mind..." Lei Jiuniang smiled, "As long as mother is happy, we can do whatever we want."
Everyone nodded, and Xia Jinxiu also breathed a sigh of relief.
But at the same time, everyone was wondering in their hearts, are we never going to the capital in this life?
There shouldn't be any need for that. You don't have to be so afraid to even get close to the capital, right?
Xia Jinxiu even felt that she didn't want to marry the emperor anymore. Could the emperor still forcibly take her away from him?
In the village, the appearance of General Wei has made everyone curious.
Many people are thinking about how to find out, but they just haven't figured out how to start.
Xia Zhiliao saw Mrs. Yang muttering to herself from a distance. When she saw them, her expression changed.
"Hey, who is this? Why does he look unfamiliar?" Mrs. Yang came over without any seduction.
General Wei let him look at her. He felt that the woman looked familiar. Didn't she look like the daughter-in-law of the Yang family who had a conflict with Sister Qing back then?
It’s just that she is too old and can’t be compared with Sister Qing.
"This is my Grandpa Wei!" Xia Zhiliao introduced him generously, "Take a good look at me. You've met before, but now you don't recognize me?"
"Grandpa Wei? Where did your grandpa come from? Didn't your grandma have a fight with the Xia family and broke off the relationship?" Grandma Yang said with a smile, "Hiss..."
"Have you remembered?" Xia Zhiliao asked deliberately.
Mrs. Yang frowned, but General Wei didn't change much. "It's a bit dazed. Have we really met before?"
"That's right, Sister-in-law Yang, don't you remember me? You even got a bundle of firewood from me?"
"Hiss...you are that...that..." Mrs. Yang turned to look at Mrs. Xia, "He...that man?"
Old Mrs. Xia smiled and nodded, looking calm.
"He...didn't he leave? Why is he back?" Mrs. Yang looked at General Wei in disbelief, "Why are you back?"
"Why can't I come back? Sister Qing saved my life, isn't it normal for me to come back and see her?" General Wei said with a smile.
He finally understood why Zhiliao insisted on bringing them around the village. It turned out that she wanted to vent her anger on Sister Qing.
He will definitely cooperate in this matter.
Mrs. Yang swallowed her saliva and asked, "You...how come you haven't aged at all?"
General Wei was about to speak when Xia Zhiliao said, "Of course I'm not old. I eat well, sleep well, and have people to take care of me. How can I get old easily?"
"Someone is waiting on you? You...you got married?"
General Wei smiled.
"My grandfather Wei is an official now."
"Be an official? Are you kidding me?" Mrs. Yang shouted in shock, then shook her head, "What kind of official can you be? You are such a boaster."
Old Mrs. Xia smiled but said nothing.
General Wei cooperated with Xia Zhiliao very well, "He was just a general and won a few battles."
"General? And you won the battle? Don't tell me that you fought the battle at the border. You are such a boaster."
"You're right, I was the one who hit him." Wei Rong said.
"I don't believe it." Mrs. Yang said again: "You are already a general, why are you still here with us? Besides, where are your soldiers now that you are a general?"
Mrs. Yang looked disdainful.
"Pretending to be a general is punishable by death. How could Grandpa Wei lie to me?"
When Mrs. Yang heard this, she realized that it was a serious crime. "You...are you really a general?"
General Wei raised his eyebrows, "Why would I lie to you?"
"Then...then can you do me a favor? My son has committed a minor offense and is in jail. Can you say something to help him?" Mrs. Yang said, "We know each other. Please do me a favor."
General Wei frowned, "The country has its own laws, and the family has its own rules. He must be punished for his mistakes."
Although he didn't know what was wrong, General Wei was not surprised at all. This woman had always compared herself with Sister Qing in the past. He had noticed at that time that the sons she had raised were not very good. He didn't expect that she would really cause trouble.
"Don't...don't, just say a word. You are the general and the county magistrate has to listen to you."
General Wei sneered, his eyes full of contempt.
