Chapter 418 Returning Home
According to Shen Xiangwan's instructions, only less than 10,000 people were left to guard the three border counties of the 100,000-strong army, and the rest were withdrawn to the camp in the prefectural city. Except for Dafeng County, the government offices and people in the other two counties also returned to the city, and the city gates were wide open. The government encouraged merchants to trade with the countries in the Western Regions to boost Chenzhou's economy.
"Wanwan!"
Ten days later, in mid-June, Wei Chengyi returned to the General's Mansion in Dafeng County, exhausted. Shen Xiangwan, who was browsing news from various places in the meeting room, was startled and then slowly raised his head: "Cheng, Chengyi!"
Although they could meet in space from time to time, that little time was never enough. After three months, he finally came back.
"Wanwan."
Rushing over and hugging her tightly, Wei Chengyi buried his head deep in her neck, breathing in her scent almost greedily. Mu Yunran, who had stayed in the general's residence to accompany Shen Xiangwan, stood up silently, and Yuan Yue Yuanying and the guards who were waiting on the side also retreated tacitly.
"Wanwan, I miss you so much!"
Letting her go a little, Wei Chengyi stroked her fair cheek and said hoarsely, his delicate and handsome eyebrows looked a little vicissitudes and decadent because he had no time to tidy up, his deep eyes were full of affection, as if they could only accommodate her.
"Yeah, I missed you too."
Raising her hand to hold his, Shen Xiangwan slowly closed her eyes. She had gone out with tens of thousands of cavalrymen. Even with the protection of the guards, the time they could meet in space was very short each time. It had been a long time since she had been alone with him like this.
"Wanwan..."
Holding her face, Wei Chengyi leaned over and kissed her cherry red lips. Shen Xiangwan did not refuse. They both wanted to use this intimate touch to confirm each other's existence. The kiss lasted for a long time, until they both felt they could hardly breathe. They reluctantly let go of each other. The moment he lowered his eyes, Wei Chengyi decisively noticed her belly, and his big hands touched it almost tremblingly.
"Um?"
As if sensing his presence, the baby in her belly suddenly moved, and Wei Chengyi retracted his hand reflexively: "He..."
"They moved."
Facing his shocked gaze, Shen Xiangwan took his hand and placed it on her belly again: "There are two children inside, they are saying hello to you."
"Wanwan, I'm sorry, and thank you!"
Unexpectedly, she was pregnant with twins. Wei Chengyi opened his arms and hugged her again, expressing his apologies in a hoarse voice and thanking her for her hard work in bearing their children. Shen Xiangwan said nothing, but just leaned in his arms with a happy smile on the corner of her mouth.
This time, Wei Chengyi and Qingying each led out 50,000 cavalrymen. During the period, Wei Chengyi used the space to send back to Dafeng County anyone who was seriously injured or dead. Although there were only 70,000 people who came back with them, they not only destroyed the Longcheng of the Western Hu people, but also killed countless Western Hu tribes. Their results were definitely remarkable.
Of course, after returning, Wei Chengyi soon learned what happened at home. He knew that Shen Xiangwan probably didn't tell him because she was afraid that he would be distracted on the battlefield. He could only express his helplessness. Shen Xiangwan was pregnant with twins and usually gave birth in more than eight months. The couple simply dealt with the matters in Dafeng County and returned to Yong'an Village.
“Ding ding!”
Several off-road vehicles drove into Yong'an Village one after another. The villagers who were just gossiping about their family affairs all cast their eyes on them. Ever since the affairs of the Wei family spread, they also knew that the entire Chenzhou was under the control of the Wei family. Moreover, they would have to fight in the future. If they won, Wei Chengyi, as the head of the family, might become the most honorable person in the world.
Thinking about their relationship with the Wei family, the villagers all beat their chests and stamped their feet, hating themselves for being so short-sighted. If they had not been jealous and alienated from the Wei family for no reason, considering Chen Xiangwan's character, would he have treated them unfairly in the future?
During this period, there were some villagers who were thick-skinned and took the initiative to visit Zhao Yuping and others, trying to repair the relationship between them. Unfortunately, Zhao Yuping was not stupid, so how could she let them do whatever they wanted?
"Madam, Madam, the Second Master and Madam are back!"
The SUV stopped at the door of the Wei family. Seeing their servants, they were startled reflexively, and then ran into the house quickly. Wei Chengyi, who was helping Shen Xiangwan get out of the car, frowned almost imperceptibly. Why are the servants in the family becoming more and more unruly?
"Wanwan!"
Not long after, there were hurried footsteps. Zhao Yuping, Ji Shaohan and his wife, Yue Ruyan, and Wei Linger came out hurriedly with their little girl. They already knew that Shen Xiangwan was pregnant, and the first thing they looked at was her belly.
"Mother, Master, Master's Wife, we are back."
Shen Xiangwan said with a smile on her face as she walked up to them with Wei Chengyi.
"You naughty kid, you still remember to come back!"
Zhao Yuping couldn't help but tear up, her voice choking with sobs. What good was there in the battlefield? She didn't even come back even though she was pregnant. Look at how thin she has become.
"Mom, I'm back."
Knowing this would happen, Shen Xiangwan broke free from Wei Chengyi's hand and pushed her into the house: "I've been sitting in the car for almost an hour, and my back is a little sore. Mom, please be kind to me and let's talk inside."
"I love you so much that you are so willful!"
Having said that, Zhao Yuping still took the initiative to take the first step, without adding any burden to her.
"whee."
At times like this, the more you talk, the more mistakes you make. Adhering to the principle of not hitting someone who smiles at you, Shen Xiangwan grinned extremely brightly, with no intention of chatting with her.
"Little dumpling."
Wei Chengyi, who was following behind, picked up the little ball who had just turned one year old. He was just like his nickname, fair and tender, round and plump, and very cute.
“No, no…”
It had been several months since I last saw him. Little Dumpling had long forgotten who he was. His short, chubby little hands kept pushing him away, and he didn't forget to shout at Ji Shaohan: "Daddy, Daddy..."
"Little Dumpling, have you forgotten about your senior brother?"
Wei Chengyi pretended to be sad. He always held him in his arms when he was a child, but in just a few months, he had forgotten him.
It seemed as if he had forgotten that the little dumpling had just turned one year old, and was only twelve or thirteen years old in total. In the previous few months, he was either on the expedition or on the way to the expedition. It would be strange that people could remember him.
"Don't yell, he's your senior brother, he'll be the one taking care of you from now on, don't bother your mother all the time."
Ji Shaohan couldn't express how much he disliked his only son in his words and deeds. It was because he became less and less lovable as he grew up, and he always competed with him for his wife.
