Shulan and He Fengmian stayed here for seven days.
Once the two elderly people were able to get out of bed and walk around, the Zhou family accepted He Fengmian's identity as a general.
The young couple made sure everything was settled before they left.
The Zhou family has been free of psychological burden these past few days, and they are eating well, so their complexions are much better than before.
Watching the young couple about to leave, I felt reluctant to part with them, but I also knew they had important things to do.
Zhou Weiyang said, "Be careful on the road. Don't worry about us here. We'll take good care of ourselves."
Zhou Chongyang also said, "When your maternal grandparents recover next spring, we will go to the border town."
Although the Xie family is gone, they have no plans to return to their ancestral home.
Since I'm going to stay here anyway, I might as well go to the border town with my niece. That way, I'll have someone to look after me.
"Okay, I'll come pick you up when I have time."
Shulan really likes them; their kindness and open-mindedness are truly unmatched by ordinary people.
Zhou Weiyang waved his hand and said, "If you're busy, go ahead and do your thing. Don't worry about us and let it interfere with your own affairs."
Knowing that my niece and nephew-in-law are both doing important things, I didn't want to hold them back with such trivial matters.
He said, "We'll go over when your Uncle Yan comes back."
Uncle Yan is Yan Sui, who has always protected them. Now he is their in-law and the father-in-law of their two sons.
Shulan thought for a moment and nodded: "Okay."
After saying goodbye to the Zhou family, He Fengmian asked, "Where else would you like to go?"
Shulan shook her head: "No need. The weather is getting colder and colder. Let's go find my older brother and the others and head back to the capital."
Looking at the Zhou family, he suddenly thought of the elderly couple from the He family.
They must also be looking forward to their grandchildren coming home.
"good."
He Fengmian, with Shulan in tow, headed towards the main force.
They caught up with the main group in just a few days.
He Fengling glanced at his younger brother while his wife was away.
He clicked his tongue and said, "Our Mian has finally grown up."
He said in a very irritating tone, "Why are you back so early? Could it be that you couldn't satisfy your sister-in-law?"
He Fengmian almost bulged his veins, gritting his teeth: "...Shut up."
He Fengling didn't mind, and just teased, "Is this how you talk to your brother?"
But that tone of voice and that expression were absolutely infuriating.
He Fengmian was already used to it and couldn't be bothered to pay attention to his unserious older brother.
He simply asked with concern, "Does your leg still hurt?"
It was fine when the weather was warm.
The weather has cooled down a bit these past few days, and he's quite worried.
"If it hurts, go to Yaozhi or Shulan for acupuncture. The reason we came back is that Shulan wants us to go back to the capital to be with our grandparents as soon as possible."
After saying that, he left to arrange other things.
With him around, his brother naturally doesn't need to worry.
After everyone left, Wang Yaozhi, carrying a bowl of medicine, pushed open the door and asked, "What's wrong? Did you upset Jian Xing again?"
He Fengling leaned lazily against his wheelchair: "How could such a good older brother like me possibly make my younger brother angry?"
Wang Yaozhi didn't believe a single word of it, but he had that infuriating mouth. It was just that Jian Xing had a good temper and a stable personality.
Anyone with a quick temper should be strangled.
He handed over the medicine, saying, "Drink it."
He Fengling pretended not to hear and turned his face away: "I wonder when this rain will stop."
Wang Yaozhi was amused and annoyed: "Anyway, you have to drink this medicine whether you like it or not. What's the point of doing this every day?"
"I've never seen you feel this bad when taking medicine before. Why are you acting so delicate now?"
He Fengling complained, "Who told this medicine to taste so awful?"
It tastes awful, and you have to drink it every day.
He really feels like vomiting just from smelling this.
Although Wang Yaozhi had never tasted this medicine before, just by looking at its ingredients, he knew how awful it must taste.
But there was nothing he could do: "Even if this medicine tastes terrible, it's still better than your legs hurting."
"Drink it, the sooner the better."
He Fengling chuckled, "Did you lie to our little treasure?"
Wang Yaozhi complained, "You're not even as good as your little one. Your little one is much more obedient when taking medicine than you are."
That's absolutely true.
He Xiaobao, this chubby boy, has been taking medicine frequently since he was a child because he was weak.
He drinks his medicine gulp down without ever causing any trouble for the adults; he's much easier to raise than his father.
He Fengling: "..."
Looking at the medicine, although she took it, she couldn't help but complain, "This medicine tastes so awful, didn't you ever think of changing the formula?"
"It's impossible to change the prescription, but your sister-in-law said that it can be made into pills. She said that if you hold on for a few more days, once we get to the capital and there's a place available, they'll make the pills for you."
Wang Yaozhi said somewhat sourly, "It's because Junior Sister is a kind person that she's willing to make it into pills for you."
After Shulan returned, upon learning that He Fengling was unwilling to drink such bitter medicine, she figured she had nothing to do lately anyway, and since she had previously considered making beauty and conditioning pills, she might as well give it a try now.
However, this is not difficult, it just requires a place to get it.
Upon hearing this, He Fengling said, "My sister-in-law is the best. My family is so lucky. This time when we return to the capital, we must give the old Grand Preceptor a big gift to thank him."
If it weren't for the old imperial advisor, the He family wouldn't have had such a smooth and successful life.
Wang Yaozhi strongly agreed, and they quickened their return to the capital.
Just half a month later, they finally arrived in the capital.
The capital city had already experienced its first snowfall at this time.
He Fengmian and his brother returned to the He residence first, and will go to the palace to report on their duties early the next morning. Shulande will go with them then.
Compared to the original owner who entered the He Mansion and was stuffed into a carriage and left before even seeing what the mansion looked like.
Shulan received a warm welcome this time.
Not only the elderly couple from the He family, but even the two aunts from the He family returned to their parents' homes to specially welcome Shulan, which shows how much they value her.
Shulan also used her sweet talk to her friends and gave everyone the gifts she brought from the border town.
General He and his wife were relieved to see how well she got along with her grandson.
He took her hand and said, "Child, you've worked so hard."
They got married right after the wedding ceremony, and she did so many things for everyone in the border town. The He family was very grateful to her.
Shulan smiled and said, "Grandmother, it's not hard at all. With Jianxing helping me, it's quite good."
The old lady smiled even more kindly.
She was especially overjoyed when she learned that she might be able to cure her eldest grandson.
He privately told General He, "I used to think Xie Huilin was clever, but now I see him as incredibly foolish."
General He agreed: "Yes, he may never know where he went wrong until he died."
Old Madam He sneered, "Serves him right. Didn't he always say he wanted to see his granddaughter-in-law? Now that the Liu family has given up on him, he remembers he still has a daughter like this?"
She said coldly, "We absolutely must not let Shulan know about this upsetting matter, lest it spoil her mood."
