Yuchi Xiu hid his achievements and fame, and returned to Wei Ting and Jing Yi's tent wearing golden armor.

After just a few tries of pretending to be cool, he felt like his waist was going to break.

He held his aching waist and gritted his teeth and muttered, "General Wei Xu has a good waist and kidneys... No wonder he can have so many sons..."

Leng Zhao had brought this upon himself.

However, this is not the end. The Leng family's retribution has just begun. From now on, everything they stole from the Wei family will be returned little by little.

A heart-wrenching wail was heard from Leng Kui's tent.

Su Xiaoxiao turned over and went to sleep peacefully.

…

Su Xiaoxiao left a large sum of military pay for Qin Canglan. At this point, the money she earned from Zhao Kangning and the envoys from Northern Yan had been almost spent. In addition, she used some gold from the White Lotus Sect as pensions for the soldiers.

After everything was packed up, Qin Canglan came to see off his precious granddaughter and his miserable grandson-in-law.

"The snow has stopped in the past two days, so it's a good time to travel."

He touched his precious granddaughter's head reluctantly. This was family happiness that came many years late. He wished he could be with them every day, but he couldn't leave for the time being. He had to guard the border, fight Beiyan, and kill the traitor of the Leng family.

Su Xiaoxiao never experienced the warmth of home in her previous life, but in this life she is deeply cared for by every family member.

She let him pat her head obediently.

"Grandfather, I'll be waiting for you in the capital. Once you and your eldest cousin have finished fighting, come back soon."

Qin Canglan smiled and said, "Okay!"

Su Xiaoxiao looked at Su Mo who was helping her carry her luggage and said, "Big cousin, take care of yourself too."

Su Mo nodded: "I will."

Su Xiaoxiao added: "I'll leave the Red Shadow Army to my grandfather and my eldest cousin."

Qin Canglan said: "Don't worry, Mo'er will lead the troops himself and will treat them as his confidants."

Afterwards, Qin Canglan gave Wei Ting a few more instructions: "You are a father now. Don't be so reckless in future actions. Do you really think you have nine lives?"

Wei Ting acted like a good boy at this time: "Yes, Grandfather, I'll remember that."

Qin Canglan was quite satisfied: "Take good care of your injuries. I will give you more guidance when I return to the capital."

Am I going to get beaten again... Wei Ting's smile froze at the corner of his lips.

Qin Canglan looked at Jing Yi who was sitting in another wheelchair and said, "Boy, you are good."

Little White Zongzi Jingbaobao blushed.

Marshal Qin praised me, Marshal Qin praised me, Marshal Qin praised me...

Xiao Duye also wanted to return to the capital. He couldn't wait to go back to the capital to report his achievements to Emperor Jingxuan.

He had a carriage all by himself.

Su Xiaoxiao was in the same carriage with Jing Yi, Wei Ting and Wu Hu.

When they came, they were all full of energy, but when they left, only Su Xiaoxiao and the little macaw were left, still looking energetic.

Xiao Duye was extremely tired. Jing Yi and Wei Ting were wrapped up like dumplings. They could not move and were not allowed to quarrel. They could only fight each other in the carriage with unyielding eyes.

The group embarked on the journey back to Beijing.

On the other side, Uncle Han and the girl led a group of experts to sneak into the snow-capped mountains of Beiyan.

"Uncle Han, is this the right place? We went the wrong way last time, so we won't go the wrong way this time too, will we?"

The girl asked.

Uncle Han said, "Last time I took a detour to find the Snowy Gastrodia and accidentally got lost. This time I followed the map exactly, so I won't make any mistakes."

As they were talking, several people came to the entrance of the passage, walked in with torches, and after walking for about half a quarter of an hour they reached the end.

Uncle Han squatted down, found the mechanism on the ground, stepped on it, and the stone door opened.

But when they went in, they were stunned by the scene before them.

"Uncle Han, why is it so messy in there?"

All the weapon racks had collapsed, swords, spears and halberds were scattered all over the ground, and there were many broken arrows and hidden weapons. The girl had no idea where to start.

Uncle Han looked at it carefully and said solemnly: "Someone fought here and triggered the mechanism."

The girl fanned herself with her hands: "Did anyone get here before us?"

A faint breathing sound was heard from behind the stone wall. Uncle Han's eyes moved, and he quickly found the mechanism and opened the stone door of another secret room.

The stone table was empty, except for a dying man pinned under a large rock nearby.

Uncle Han rushed over and searched carefully above and below the stone table, but he found nothing after searching everywhere.

"It's gone... the thing is gone..."

The two missions to Shatter North Pass this time all failed, the Snowland Gastrodia was stolen, and even the treasures for restoring the country were taken away by others first.

He clenched his fists in disbelief: "Who on earth... who on earth is it?!"

When they came, they were in a hurry to save Wei Ting, and they hurried all the way. Xiao Duye vomited several times. Although he didn't need to save anyone when he returned, he was worried about the little kids, so the carriage still went very fast.

Xiao Duye was vomiting all over again, and was even worse than the two injured people, Wei Ting and Jing Yi.

The injuries of the two men improved day by day, and by the time they were near the capital, they were both able to get off the carriage.

In late January, it snowed again in the capital. Snowflakes fell in large flakes, and soon formed a thick layer on the ground.

The three little kids resumed their classes at Lingyun after the fifteenth day of the first lunar month.

But unlike in the past when they were causing trouble and causing chaos, the three little evil disciples have been much quieter recently.

The three of them knelt on their own small cushions, like little puppets with their souls drained away, and were indifferent to the small five-stringed guitar placed in front of them.

Ling Yun suddenly felt a little uncomfortable.

"Want to play flower drum?" he asked.

The three of them shook their heads.

"Bang the gong?" he asked again.

The three of them still shook their heads.

Ling Yun took a deep breath and said, "It's ok to play the erhu, right? Don't you love playing the erhu the most, Xiaohu?"

Xiaohu turned his back.

He doesn't want to play the erhu.

He just wants his mother to come back.

Why hasn’t mother come back yet?

Ling Yun sighed: "Let's stop here today. I'll take you back."

The three little ones hung their heads and went out listlessly.

Ling Yun carried them one by one onto the carriage and sent them back to the Wei family.

During the Chinese New Year, other children have gained weight, but only the three little ones are getting thinner.

Old Lady Wei was so distressed that she tried her best to make the three little ones happy, but they just couldn't muster up the energy.

Even Old Lady Wei is helpless sometimes.

The three little ones would go to the door to wait for Su Xiaoxiao after dinner every day, regardless of wind or snow.

It snowed heavily today and it was freezing cold.

The three little ones held the farmers' bags and sat obediently on the doorstep waiting for their mother.

Their little faces were red from the cold and tears were coming out of their eyes.

However, no matter how much people tried to persuade him, he just refused to go in.

As we waited, it got dark.

Several aunts looked on anxiously.

Finally, a carriage came in the snow and wind and stopped at the gate of the Wei family.

The three little ones' eyes lit up, and they ran over clumsily on their almost frozen feet.

However, it was Su Li who came down.

Su Li smiled: "Did you know that uncle was coming and were waiting for him here?"

The three little ones hung their heads and sat back on the doorstep in disappointment.

"Hey - you guys -"

Su Li came today to give the little ones new clothes made by their mother. When he left, the three little ones were still sitting on the doorstep, looking aggrieved and pitiful.

After waiting for another quarter of an hour, the second carriage came, this time it was a visiting guest.

The third carriage, the fourth, the fifth...

The three of them ignited their hopes time and time again, and were disappointed time and time again. In the end, the three of them were extremely sad, and tears of grievance kept rolling in their eyes, but they tried their best not to let them fall.

Li Wan squatted down and touched the faces of the three people: "Come and wait tomorrow."

"Yeah, let's go back."

Lan also said softly.

Jiang said, "Would you like Fifth Aunt to take you to see the lanterns?"

They don't want lanterns, they just want their mother.

In the last few hours of the year, I have managed to catch up with the third update. See you in the New Year.
